It shouldn't be so hard and I shouldn't try so hard

Image
Couple of months back, I think easily 6 or so when I was looking through my old emails and mind you the archive went back as far as 10-12 years ago and I was having abit of laugh with my friends over the silly chain mails we used to send to each another talking about everything and nothing. Back in the days, before blogging there were something called writing emails (abit like e-pen pal) and I took that as a form of ranting and expression. So then there were a few fellas that I used to write to but of course like everything else it died down. I found a particular email from a guy who was studying law in the UK - we corresponded during the days when I just started out as a struggling web designer and somehow we lost the interest to write to each another. This is understandable considering that we were at very different paths of our life, with me desperately to make it in the world and him trying to make sense of studying life. I thought it would be nice to somehow reconnect back after a

Sudeikis on Porter

Mr Porter has been online for some time now and it will take awhile before they are able to get more stocks and designers of great menswear but from what I see, things look promising. They did put time and thought into the design of the website, really elegant and most importantly invest on their editorial spread which features proper stars and fashion icon. And unlikely fashion style star, comedian Jason Sudeikis is being featured and I have to say while I am not a big fan, I've noticed his beautiful mane for some time now. The pictures were beautifully shot and styled. Love, love, love the hair. Image via : Mr Porter

God must have spent...

Way too much time on you. How perfect and pretty. It's unfair. Can cook and have nice facial hair too. Asian too. Who, you may ask? Here then

Happy Chinese New Year

Wish you were here!

31 is better than 30

Which is very true. Though I thought my 30th was nice but then again the rest that follows aint exactly merry. There's so many things that I want but I stopped wishing. There is no point wishing. All it needs is some working. Actually loads of work. No guarantee of payoff. 31 is better than 30 31 is better than 30 31 is better than 30 31 is better than 30

As I think about the human spirit

Image
I spoke of the power of the human spirit back then and I will talk about it again. Besides being resilient and absolutely beautiful, it never gives up. This is something that I've learnt by observing how I feel and behave with things that happen around me. The truth is, while I am thankful for all the good things that happened, I am begining to look back at all the bad and understand the lessons behind each and every one of it. We all started out young and optimistic and mostly idealistic about how things should be and how you would think you will act which is a big mistake because when a case presents itself to you, you might just do the exact opposite from what you believed. That doesn't mean you are not being truth to yourself, very likely that you didn't know yourself that well. And with each and every experience, you learn more about yourself. I learnt more about myself than I ever did. And the part of not giving up? It's almost irrational but everything in me tel

I also like cubs...so welcome back.

Almost pornstache

Image
Miuccia Prada did it again. AH-MAZING!!! While Burberry has been a let down for a season or two, Prada went strength to strength for the past 1-2 years. Won't bore you with my reviews as the pro will and can do it better, so read and see everything here . Here are my picks and I am quite excited about the strong looks coupled with round glasses (which I have) and the almost pornstache. I am growing one as well!!

#DatingIs

#DatingIs Appearing interested when she talks about the Ex. Yawnz. #DatingIs Checking your phone. Every 29 seconds. #DatingIs Saying 'Yes' to things you always say 'No fucking way' to. #DatingIs Losing your appetite and self-esteem, and wondering why everything is okay only when she's around. Why.So.Loser. #DatingIs Mentally and physically preparing for situations that lead to nudity. #DatingIs Losing sleep, getting distracted at work, losing control. Remember the 'wrecking your life' part? #DatingIs Basically er....waiting for the other person to call. #DatingIs Trapping yourself in a vicious cycle of hope, joy, desire, lust, ecstasy, torment, and self-loathing. Does she/he love me at all #DatingIs Cautiously searching for someone who will wreck your life. Not dating anyone yet but just saying...and my fav of all would be #DatingIs Like Instagram. The right filter changes everything. Source: https://twitter.com/TommyWee

Best assets out there

I think I am a little slow but as I doing something (or nothing) the other day trying to see some nice pictures of men, I stumbled upon Daniel Craig's ass. For those who don't know, I have a thing for him - 1st being English and then rugged-ness... It has came to my attention and probably the producers as well that people tune into his movies just to watch him go topless. I mean it's a selling point. What I didn't know is that they literally sell the movie via his ass. Have a look: But who's complaining right? Not me.

Why like that one ar?

Guess we gotta be real. But why must we be real? why can't we do what we want to do? Cause we are adults now. I hate being adult. When I was a kid, I thought being adult means doing whatever I like. At least back then, there's a hope that carries one through - to be an adult and have complete freedom. So what do we have to hope for? Death? You know what they say, dying is easy. Living is hard.

Increadible India Indeed

Less than a month to go, I will be in India. I know it's not going to be easy and in fact I put off doing my research for the longest time but it's peak season and I thank for lucky stars that I have managed to secure places to stay in popular places. It's been overwhelming to say the least with so many regions to cover and so many things to arrange from train to car and hotels. I have sleepless night thinking about what I missed and etc and it's not funny considering that I am doing all this during working hours. Opps. I know it will be worth it. India is incredible.

Oh no, I didn't!

You know there are some people who are totally into their fitness so much so that it has become annoying, it's something that I should view as positive but ever since joining gym some people somehow check in their brain and personality and never seem to check out with them. Those types are very distinctive, you know them - zombies that are void of any form of personality whatsoever that talks about nothing but their classes, regime and dieting and then back to classes and ocassionally this instructor or that cute/ugly/fat instructor and then sometimes gossiping about some bitches who either wear clothes 5 sizes too small/skimpy tiny workout shorts or being cruised at the changing room. Wow, exciting. Seriously there must be more to life than this? Certainly not for those people. Don't get me wrong, I am not against improvement but I don't think something like what steps you did today or how bad the music was should be something of interest to anyone at all, even if it is, i

Happy new year. It's a BLEH to go back to work but I've been busy. Booking and booking and more bookings. Not for this upcoming trip but for the next one. As for the upcoming, thank God it's settled and so long to you during the Chinese New Year break. I know, I know, it's bad to talk about one holiday when one just ended and all but life's like that. I have so many things in my head now that I can't just say it. Thinking and planning and saving of course, which is never my forte. Speaking of which, there is a new year purchase. So much for saving!
