I'm sure many of you who live in HDBs woulds have heard of shoes getting stolen if left outside. Especially if the shoes are expensive, branded, or in most cases, both. I've had friends who had their Converse or Addias sneakers stolen because they accidentally left them outside for the night.

Well, i've never had my shoes stolen. Or lost. The one and only time i lost my slippers was when i went to Desaru with my family and they got washed away by the waves while i was wearing them. No idea how that happened, but that's not the point.

Today i just discovered something else people would steal if you left them outside your flat. You'd be surprised.



This is what we call a plastic vine. Artifical vine. Main purpose = decoration. Why anyone would want to steal it is simply out of this world. I'd admit that the one hanging on my gate that used to hang on my gate before it got stolen looks prettier with small little plastic sunflowers, but still...! And it's like seven years old, faded and dusty like nobody's business!

The weird things we humans do. Reminds me of Kel's tale of being robbed by a mat. The werids things people would want instead.
