my shot:take a good walk

My shot:It all pass us by

So hooked on this song,The Dream feat. Kanye West-Walkin On The Moon

How important is money?I guess ive found my truth,well hopefully

Money,straight after SPM everyone had to decide what to do for the future and in my mind it was pretty plain simple I wanted money so i knew Im definitely going into the business side of the world.After some thinking I decided to maybe major in Economics,because you know you understand how it works you understand how money goes around.

Why money?lol simple i don't know whether it's the media or what but I am guilty of being materialistic I love all the branded stuffs,fancy clothes,shoes,I want big cars nothing less than a Mercedez or a BMW,I want myself a mansion with swimming pool and a private theatre.Okay so that was a year ago,fast forward to today I still love all the fashion stuffs,still want to drive big cars buy big houses but then there's something that's changed.

Me today can better appreciate the world,I don't know why probably its cause i've been constantly google the web for art related stuffs that I realized this is a beautiful world even without all the more expensive things in life.I'm thinking probably I should reconsider my major into something more art related,something like photography because so what if I will be poor atleast I'll enjoy my life and see the world as a beautiful place.If there's a priority in my life now it's damn simple I just want to get around the world and see all the beautiful places and experience all the beautiful things in life and of course even that I need money but then atleast I wont be spending money buying big cars big houses and make myself a slave to the monetary system and being unable to appreciate all the little things in life.

So are you gonna be slave for the economy or are you gonna enjoy your life in your own way?
It's a hard choice really,if you dont put money as a main priority life's pretty much risky you might end up with nothing but then seriously we all need to think for ourselves.All the channel,the louis vuitton,the prada,the hermes isit necessary?are you sure you're not brainwashed by the media?I don't know either way I will still love em cause to me designing is more like an artform/a creative output from the designer/an effort from some1 to make this world a more beautiful place but then I wouldn't wanna worship luxurious brands blindly we all have to be moderate cause there's so much more in life...

Music,Art (and even the cheapest form of art can be a beautiful thing you don't have to buy a picasso or board on a plane to france just to see the mona lisa),lazing at the beach doing nothing,sip on a cup of coffee in Istanbul or a cup of tea in China,chit-chat with friends,good ol quality time with family and etc ...there's just SOOOOOOOO MUCH MORE,even waking up to a sunny day .......

It's been long but My Shot:World through rayban shades

of life and death...=)

some unfortunate event happened to a friend I know today,some1 that who once she was close with has just left her.It makes me think about life and death,Buddha himself tried to find the truth of life and death and if you ask me I wouldnt bother too much bout the truth.We know that mothernature,shes a stuck up (FILL IN THE BLANK URSELF) she makes the rules and never bother to explain to us why and all we can do is to play the game as it's set.I believe we should just deal with the way of nature with a more optimistic view,death itself it's inevitable for every gathering there will be a separation but instead of only dwelling on the sadness when we separate we should always be grateful of the moments we get to gather.Of course sadness will always be there besides what's life without emotions of all kinds,as they say you cant appreciate sweetness if uve never tasted bitter.But then we should always be happy that all those special people in life they came across and became part of our life,and know that they always live on in our memories besides noone knows where we go after we've lived our life,maybe we all go to a better place where the sun always shine n the flowers always bloom who knows?lol we can only imagine bout it so why not imagine something good and happy

Im sure though for every loved ones who leave you,they wish to see us smile.I don't wanna get all pessimistic but then serious if I die one day (which I know I will LOL) I wish everysingle person that I know can think bout all the happy moments that we shared and just be happy that we all get to know each other during our short stint on earth and be happy that Im moving on to another phase.

Cast of Gossip Girls shot by Terry Richardson for Rolling Stone Magazine

I guess everyone knows Gossip Girls its not like im a big fan but i do watch it wit my girl,and Terry Richardson's famous for his raw snapshot style of takin portraits put em 2gether you get something's fun and steamy for sure.And oh yea Leighton Meester's face looks too hott in the 2nd pic lol

pics from http://rollingstone.com

Some old Vogue Italia editorial of Natalia Vodanova shot by Steven Meisel

I'm not a big fan of Steven Meisel but there's no doubt that hes the top photographer in the fashion field.I personally like Natalia Vodianova but she is kind of an unconventional beauty and its amazing how Steven Meisel can make her looks so beautiful in such simple ways.Totally love the cover,one of the best cover of any mag that I've ever seen and this is from year 2006 if im not wrong can't recall which month though.

Pics are taken from a natalia vodianova fan site but i really cant remember the link

Nothing beats reading a fashion mag while listening to Chill/Vocal House/Acid Jazz

I know not many guys do but I'm really interested in fashion and style if can I'd like to study fashion designing no doubt but of course that's too much of a risk to take.I love it because prolly I love arts all kinds of arts and dressing up and looking good that's definitely art to me and it's interesting to see how every1 has their own personal style and how fashion designers visualize what people should wear/what's beautiful on people.Im not that much of a trend person,I believe more in having a personal style,all the best dressers has their own(weird to some other ppl) style take kate moss for an example shes one of the most succesful model of all time but then she still shops in Topshop n Zara instead of YSL,Chanel,Lanvin etc etc all the time now thats style.

And of course I love music its like the very first form of arts tht I liked,only recently im into visual arts.I'm very into vocal house/acid jazz/down tempo or anything with a good beat and chilling now,it just put me into a good mood.Currently listening to Nouvelle Vague,Nouvelle Vague is a French musical collective led by musicians Marc Collins and Olivier Libaux. Their name is a play on words referring simultaneously to their "Frenchness" and "artiness" (the '60s new wave of cult French cinema), the source of their songs (all covers of punk rock, post-punk, and New Wave songs), and their use of '60s Bossa nova-style arrangements.

I am ...

is still waiting for my care free,happy go lucky see the world the way I see it girl.

I want a girl that's constantly smiling,and genuinely happy being together with me without me doing anything cause I believe love is supposed to be effortless.

I want a girl that doesnt care bout all those dramas,and human manipulated so called troubles in life cause life's better when you stop caring bout all those unnecessary stuffs just live it as it is stop asking questions.

I want a girl that sees the world the way I see the world,I believe the world is really beautiful u see in it's simplest form it's when we humans tryna complicate things tryna explain every single phenomena,trying so hard to make everything better,trying to be better than some1 else that it gets ugly,we start to get stressed for all the unworthy reasons we stop enjoying those really small things in life that are actually great for example a sunshine,sounds of the raindrops,the colour of the sky before sun sets and the list goes for what? that extra acres of houses?that cooler than the guy nex door's car?Why want to be luxurious when you can't enjoy life in the 1st place?

Most important?she needs not to make a big fuss out of anything cause there's always so much negativity that you can pick on but then if something happens and u just smile pass it the negativity would just be brushed aside so why make such a big fuss,ok there's a minor problem so what?we've to waste the next 30minutes of our life being pissed/bothered/annoyed/disgusted/feeling f*ed up bout it ?Why not just think bout it for awhile den smile n say "damn im such an idiot alrite nex time things shouldnt be this way".

I need a woman that can be the lyrics to my Norah Jones rhythm,smooth..

And when I find her,I swear I'll be the most romantic guy on earth cause she will be the most beautiful woman on earth and i won't care bout what others think.Life's way easier and less dramatic when you only concern bout people that actually matters to you,not any Tom,Dick Harry and Hello Kitty that talks bout you.

1 really "STIM" song,Rip Slyme from Japan

Vogue Japan Editorial March 2009

My favourite editorial from Vogue (anywhere) this month,shot by Camila Akrans and Im not sure who's the model but sure looks lovely

Im so addicted to Kiss Me Thru The Phone that I decided to rewrite the lyrics lol

That song has a sick beat but then I think Soulja Boy jus really cant do the beat atleast abit justice cause IMO hes not a good lyricist at all LOL and i was so free so i thought hey maybe i can do better,only soula boy's verse though the chorus is good enough not to be changed lol

[Verse 1]
Baby I havent seen u in awhile
and I really miss your pretty smile
So I browse thru your pictures with my phone
It keeps me warm even though im all alone
Even through pictures your eyes are so lively
Lips so sexy and complexion so pretty
You have me thinking to God thank you I've something to go home to
And baby that's the reason is no other than you

[Verse2]
And baby im reading the messages you sent me
It makes me smile just the way you say you really miss me
and it was very sweet of you to end it with xoxo
I've been away but you really make me think twice whenever away I wanna go
Because I know I cant put the thoughts of you aside
we're as emotionally attached as any groom and bride
And even if im somewhere else I want to let you know you're my one and only
I'll see you soon and assure u wont again be lonely

Im so addicted to "Kiss me thru the phone-Soulja Boy feat. Sammie" and I've to say Jim Jonsin's a genius

I don't really fancy the idea of putting a song(and even if i do i wouldnt choose something so mainstream RnB) in blog and let it pop up without warning cause sometimes it's kind of annoying but Im just so addicted to this song.Not a fan of Soulja Boy to start with(and because of that I enver d/l the song even my fren Wei kept on telling me that its good until i heard it on radio) but I've to say Jim Jonsin(the guy who produced the beat) is a genius,he produced 2 of my fav Rap songs last year Lollipop by Lil Wayne n T.I.'s "Whatever U Like",with those under his belt if hes not a genius rap producer who is ?

My Monochromes-From HK

I was sorting out my pics sort of and found few shots that I took in HK that i've never uploaded anywhere so here they are,they're all in Black and White and I love black and white picture its straight forward and classic.Sometimes colours are jus distractions to me,I really love Hong Kong I think I take more good pictures there in 3days than I do here in 3months lol definitely one of my favourite city.

Oh f me I so want a wayfarer and its so unnecessary

I've all along loved the Rayban Wayfarer and for a very long period of time I couldnt tell which is cooler an Aviator shades or a Wayfarer n i think a year ago I bought myself an aviator cause at that time I felt that was the right choice but holy crap I saw Silk Spectre wears it in the movie "watchmen" and it just look so damn vintage-ly cool.I was real bored in gurney today so i went to check out some specs I tried on the Oakley version of wayfarer cause there's no stock for Rayban wayfarer and damn now I so want myself a Wayfarer and its not like I've alot of extra money to spend cause I need to buy flash for my photography interest.A little info bout wayfarer:

Designed in 1952 by Raymond Stegeman, Wayfarers originally targeted only men. John Lennon, Bob Dylan, James Dean, John F. Kennedy, Roy Orbison, and Andy Warhol all stylized up in Wayfarers. But the sunglasses became so popular, that women began sporting them, including Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn who wore Wayfarers in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

In picture of course is the legendary Audrey Hepburn and the great Andy Warhol (my favourite artist of all time I can say)

I also went to check out Dior's Fahrenheit(cologne) cause my current bottle of cologne is finishing and I've always used(stopped after I bought this goddamn bottle of Burberry which i dun much appreciate) and loved Dior's Fahrenheit for men I don't think I want to try any new scent,I love Sean John's Unforgivable and do wanna try out Jean Paul Gaultier Fleur Du Male but I think I'll stick with Dior.

Ok maybe I'm feeling gay to that talking bout shopping lists like you're reading some girl's blog but its ok I don't do this often

this song is toooo great Jimi Hendrix-All Along the Watchtower

Bob Dylan's the original singer for this if im not wrong but Jimi Hendrix totally made this song a killer one his guitar playing is just unquestionable greatness and im kind of lost of words here.If i ever going to pick up guitar for any song it has to be this ...

My snapshots

I was at Venice's bday party,I was there early had nothing to do and the place was at seaside and the time was 7 something so what better could i do other than taking pictures

Watchmen

I just came back from watching the movie "watchmen" first thing i've to say is that ppl who goes in2 da cinema expects it to be another superhero villain kicking fiesta kind of movie is going to get dissapointed,infact so dissapointed that maybe even freak pissed.Directed by Zack Snyder and the people who brought you the visual that is 300,and im not reli sure but should be the visuals of The Spirit and Sin City too.I've always liked the visual infact i love it i think its modern,avant garde but never liked any of the stories that these ppl are involved in especially The Spirit was crap really.About Watchmen its long almost 3 hours long not much action alot of suspense and it'd be questions after questions almost to the end of the movie then u get an explanation which is almost not much of an explanation and no villain dies in this movie lol seriously so now u know its not a superhero movie but as it is i dont think it's a bad movie i quite like it actually even though during some point in the movie i was starting to get worried but it flows on quite well.1 thing i've to notice is the soundtrack,to me the soundtrack is great it started with "Bob Dylan-The Times They Are A-Changing" and then some old songs I don't really kno which really suits the time of the story and then there was "Jimi Hendrix-All Along The Watch Tower" the music was really,really good for the movie.Anyway just so summarize the whole thing is that I do like this movie i like the idea and the meaning behind it,it makes me think alot bout humanity and I totally love the visuals and the soundtrack but please don't waste your rm10 expecting this to be The Dark Knight or Iron Man or Spiderman or anything,its just the most NOT superhero superhero movie i've ever watched,surprised me really but i dont mind it.

my random snapshots

And ive no idea why im high on this "GYM CLASS HEROES-COOKIE JAR" song i know its trashy and i used to think its trashy but now im hooked lol again its proven that trashy things can be very likeable

Wing Shya's works

Can't really say how much i love him,but hes amazing.Always manage to capture an oriental feel with his pictures and his pictures also look very vintage in a very natural way.His pictures also always look very cinematic how i wish i kno how he achieve that image style but anyway enjoy
