Human eyes are easily accustomed to the things we see everyday.
Vision is totally an abstraction. Our brain relates an item with the image captured through our eyes, auto tagged it and stored in our grey matter. so whenever we think of the particular item, our brain will auto retrieve the same image from the database and try to superimpose it with what we currently see.
Some people said its memory (stored in the temporary folder), i called it a perception with inherent bias.
For example,
Jane is the hermit who wears her signature THICK spectacles and hiding behind the cubicles all the time.
John is the fat guy who has a pot belly twice of a 5 months pregnant lady
Jerry is the short hyper guy who jumps while he walks, who laugh while he talks.
So what about Susan?
Well, (i think) in most of my colleague's pre conceived perception, Susan is the one who talks at the speed of light and high desibel when she is excited, sometimes walking around the office in barefoot (because tired of wearing the high heels), always wear dull monochromic suit, very un lady like (hence prefer pants over skirt), even if she is wearing a skirt, is most likely a knee length formal cut black skirt.
Until yesterday...
When she walked into the office, the boss looking at her with expanded pupils, and started laughing non stop. When he was finally able to catch his breath and gain his composure, he said: "Susan you look like a school girl today."
Throughout the entire day, she received funny stares and comments like "Susan you look young", "Susan you are wearing...."
Whats the fuss is all about!
People getting excited all over because i'm wearing ..... an A line ruffle skirt ..... (-___-)'''
Am totally confused.

ahahahha maybe u shud post a pic wif u in it then we will know why the excitement in ur ofis =)
hahahhaa, i agree with manglish totally!!!! It's a bit of a saturday skirt dun you think??? And what top do you wear it with? dun tell me the sleeve and collar one (which would normally sit nicely with your knee length black pencil skirt ).
@ Manglish: nope.I'm camera shy. hahaha...
@ Dorcas:Bingo, a black working blouse with collar one. The thing is i've send both of my working skirt to dry clean. and thought that it wouldnt be 'outrageous' to wear a casual skirt to office, what a big mistake.
but sometime being a laughing stock once in a while in the normally serious office environment, why not? I would like to see my boss be more humanly imperfect one day!
lee is dorcas. sorry.
In my past banking life, only skirts allowed not pants.. so it is nothing funny by your colleagues..
in fact, this is just another form of office victimisation.. I also had undergone as you do as most ladies are very envious or jealous you look more cute that day..hahaha..
Just stay trendy and steady, don worry Susan.. the world is not for one to see, too many to see and read..
Next round, you go to office with even better image with ur wonderfully light make up coupled with ur trendy clothes.. let's see they will look at you until their eyes drop..
Cheers!
