You Can Go Barefoot!

How to bribe a barefoot girl by Sharleen W.L. If you have read the story titled "Barefoot Sisters" you would know that in the beginning mom was so opposed to her kids going barefoot in public places, but she later gave in and allowed Tania and me to do so. The following took place in my early days of barefooting in public when I was in elementary school. I was the only barefooter in the grocery store that night It was 9:30pm on a Wednesday when dad was away on business. My oldest brother and sisters were still busy doing homework and studying, and my little brother was already in bed. I just got done with all my homework. I had karate class earlier in the evening, and so I took a shower when I got home. Btw, I got punished in class with doing lots of push-ups (I was joking around with another kid and wasn't paying attention to the instructor), so now I was a bit tired and sleepy. I was planning to go to bed a little earlier but wanted to kinda unwind first. So I ...

Flip flops are cool too

today we're taking a break from commenting on various quotes by people about going barefoot just to let y'all know that i recently added a page to my website about flip flops.

whoa! flip flops on a barefoot website?? i know, i know, some of you barefooters may chastise me for it. but you know what? not all of us are full time barefooters and in those instances when going barefoot is not possible, like due to the weather work/school, etc. flip flops are actually the next best thing.

why? because when you wear flip flops your feet (most of them anyway) are still exposed; they're not suffocated like when you wear shoes and you can also easily slip off your flip flops whenever you want to. so you are technically one step away from being barefoot. and hey, who knows (keeping my fingers crossed) bare feet might be the next fashionable thing! :)

another thing about flip flops is that in the beginning when they were just starting to be in style, it was mostly women who wore them but in the last year or so there have been more and more men wearing flip flops which is cool. when the temperature starts to warm up, flip flops start to show up just about everywhere. flip flops has become the most favorite footwear of this century and they're here to stay!

you can read more about flip flops at my website by clicking the title of this post.

    I love wearing flip flops. I try to wear them to school every day. the best thing is that when you are at school you can take them off. so times i take them off and when the teacher tells you to put them on million times they will some times take them and then you are barefoot. so you can walk around school barefoot. so when it is winter just put a pair of flip flops in your backpack and in the bathroom put on the flip flops.

A Day in the Life of a Barefoot College Student

Image
A barefoot girl story by Sharleen WL I just started college a few months ago and so far I'm loving it. There is so much more freedom than in high school and not the least is the ability to go to school barefoot. This article is an account of a typical Monday. Unlike many people, I love Mondays coz to me its the start of a brand new week full of opportunities, a new chapter in my book of life ready to be filled with exciting experiences and adventures. Its 7am and I wake up feeling refreshed after a good night's sleep. Actually I'm having a bad cold, so my nose is pretty stuffy but I feel rested nontheless and excited about the day ahead. After washing up and everything, I walk over to the game room to join the family for our morning meditation. Its dad's idea to meditate together every morning and everyone loves it. The only religious person in our family in mom who is Catholic. Dad is kinda new-agey, and all my siblings and I are atheists. But we all feel the ...

Clean Vs Dirty Bare Feet

Image
by Tania WL If you have ever gone barefoot outdoors for any length of time, you know that getting your feet dirty is inevitable. Habitual barefooters can basically be classified into 2 groups: those who like having their feet dirty, and those who simply enjoy the freedom and the wonderful sensation of walking on different surfaces that going barefoot offers, but don't care for dirty feet. I belong to the former while my little sister Sharleen (a.k.a. Lynn), the latter. Getting your feet dirty is fun. To take it a step further, those who like dirty feet, especially guys, think they are attractive, and they get "excited" looking at them if you know what I mean (I have to be careful with my choice of words here in order to keep this blog family-friendly, lol). While I'm not one of them, I have to admit sometimes it's fun knowing that some guys have a time of their lives staring at my dirty soles. Well, I won't go much more into it as that's not what thi...

Socks vs barefoot

Image
by sharleen wl does wearing just socks count as barefoot? i think most would agree the answer to that question is obvious. barefoot means just that - your feet are bare, i.e. they're not covered in any way. yet its quite surprising this question has come up more than once in the reddit barefoot sub (posted by different people). like wtf? so i replied with a similar question - does wearing just underwear count as naked? i mean your one step closer but not quite there yet. lol i believe this stems from the fact that many people aren't comfortable showing their bare feet. one of the posters even admitted to that. this in turn stems from the fact that many (especially in western countries with the exception of australia and new zealand perhaps) are conditioned to think that feet are like semi-private parts. it's improper/impolite to show them to others except in certain places like the beach or swimming pool. just like men being shirtless. so wearing just socks is like a steppi...

Another day in the life of a barefoot college student - 4 years later

Image
Another barefoot girl college student story by sharleen wl It was 4 years ago that I wrote "A day in the life of a barefoot college student" so you may be wondering why I'm still in school. Did I continue on to graduate school? Nope. I should've graduated at the end of last spring, but I have to retake a few courses and do some extra work before I can graduate. People tell me I'm too much of a free spirit, a wild child. I really love life, and I guess I've been enjoying it a little too much, and now I'm paying the price. Needless to say my parents aren't happy and they have been giving me shit about it. But hey, at least I didn't quit or flunk out (yet), right? As I wrote in my previous posts, I moved out of my parents' house at the beginning of my sophomore year. I'm living in a small apartment within walking distance from the college campus, and I work a part time job. One thing I cherish is that I'm barefoot 24/7 pretty much....
