and it's going to be a fresh start. Did I mention that I love this song? I've posted his video several months back but, ouch, I can't recall a thing of that. I only know this is the end of Knife in Mouth and will be writing my life in another space, at another time. Ta.

I have a fetish for peeping. Always love peeping into people's house to see what their life is like. Now with blogs, i don't need to literally do that anymore, thank god (and my fiance thinks i'm bonkers). The Selby is a good start and Natalie Wood is one of my top faves.

Whatever comes cannot alter one thing. If I'm a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside. It would be easy to be a princess if I were to dress in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows. - Sara Crewe, from The Little Princess

Wheel Love house their 1st fixie installation for RatzKL tonight. Along with that was a video screening (but of course) and a small competition. I'm so excited because I've been wanting a bike for the last 3 years and tonight was like the cookie galore - where bikes come in all shapes, colors and sizes. But too bad, even the smallest bike is too high for me to pedal :( Nonetheless, an eventful

I've fallen sick far too frequent this year. Yesterday, I had a terrible sore throat (the rough kind!). Today, my nose is runny and body aches. Luckily with internet, i've picked up a few dishes that made me smile and look forward to have this weekend :-)I'm never a breakfast person. This must change.

LOMOs and other analogue cameras are great, but for a busy-lazy-b like me, it's hard to find time for film processing and scanning. Least to say, finding a safe place to store the negatives, and often times, too safe to remember. So when I read about Pocket Digital camera-SQ28m on Japan Trends, my heart felt the squeeze and she told me, finally. Pocket Digital Camera - SQ28m is square format

Since I'm on the subject of perfume, I'll like to share another 'real' favorite that I can't afford. Kelly Caleche from Hermes has a clean, fresh scent. I don't have the expertise in nodes and aroma compounds, but I can tell you, this scent makes me feel classic, like a Chanel girl. Hmmm, what a mixed up of brand imagery.

I never really care about perfumes but this one makes me want it because of its proposition. They say that the girl who wears this perfume "is not from Paris but Paris adopts her". How lovely? I'm blogging this from Singapore and am already thinking, Takashimaya will be the first place to go to check out Parisienne YSL. Chow.

My favorite part of the movie where Makoto waits for Chiako to return from the future for one last kiss and a closure. This scene will tell if you are romantic or a realist. I can't wait for Mamoru Hosoda's next one, Summer Wars.

Client: So tell me, what is the return of investment if I run this campaign?Planner: That you will still have a job till end year? Alright, this is only a fictitious conversation that I imagine having (but won't dare say unless I wanna get the red!) but it's something I've been thinking a lot lately. People like throwing this term casually but do they ever think about the implications?

I feel funny asking my chinese-ed cousin about the latest happenings in chinese pop culture. Like I don't know, or maybe I really don't. I'm confused. I'm so totally grossed out watching myself looking at segments like they are alien species. So wrong. Yeah, it's an obvious post that I'm in dilemma.

Last night, she slept in between us. I couldn’t take her off my sight fearing she’ll leave me without saying good bye. I watched her sleep, and rocked her close for body heat and then I dozed off. And the dream came. I had to sacrifice her to a black bear and I was reluctant but knowing that it’s the right thing to do, and I thought, will I leave that room fast enough to not see her being eaten?

I didn't spot the connection between the 'kind act' movement (Twipple, Free Hugs) and using it as a tactic in brand building. So, I was pleasantly surprised when Hyatt announced their new initiative to randomly target Gold Pass members with acts of generosity during their stay at the hotel.

We spent more than 3 weeks of May trekking from Inner Mongolia to big city Xian. Among the thousands photos we have, this is my favorite. It's not the prettiest but it was captured at that moment when I'm the most happiest. The temperature was right, the smell of the woods and the tingling heat when the sun touches my face. Mr Bak was next to me. See more of Silk Road here. Look out for the

I've never taken an interest at the state of our political climate mainly because, most of their antics happen within their circus ring. But now that they've taken the act to play with ordinary people on the streets, I find this absolutely absurd and disgusted. Raiding the Humour Tees is a cheap thrill but wearing Che Guevera makes your a communist and Bruce Lee is communism tops it for the

If there's one lifestyle disease you can aptly label for 2009 (and onwards), it is exhaustion. Last Sunday, Britain's Got Talent runner up, Susan Boyle checked into a mental health clinic last Sunday after the award ceremony.

I’ve always got a soft spot for old things. I think I got it from my mother, an ardent collector of antique wares when I was a kid growing up in the 80s. I didn’t understand it then and constantly probed her why she spent so much money on such things, like a Chinese 3-seater that doesn’t have soft cushioning. The most vivid memory I have was the night she came home with a 6 x 4ft wooden triptych

Paper Beats Internet is an “analog” social networking site that uses hand-rendered drawings as communications tools. Users post an initial drawing on the Paper Beats Internet website, and others create comment and response drawings that work off of the first drawing’s theme. Besides being aesthetically pleasing, the time and care that goes into doing a drawing adds a sense of thought, warmth and

Trading in stock market is like running business. It is cyclical and unending to what means profit. Just like writing, you can go on and on with commas or ellipsis to make a point.

Kind people's been advising me on what to pack for Silk Road. Till the point of paranoia, I've starting prepping 2 months ahead. One of the must-have is my own sleeping bag because I'll be staying in one of these (with 10 other people):-I think this I've found the perfect bed for it. What do you think, Mr Bak?

It is now 6.10am. I woke up from a disturbing sleep. So, I started surfing the net to look for you. Have you decided to settle down to the dusk of non-existence? The net tells me lots of things but it doesn't say why you've became Norman Bates and I'm still Adeline.

Old wing of One U. We were there for one of your propping trips, I think. You took large steps; I had a hard time catching up. Just as I did, you pulled my arm and we swerved into MPH. I trailed behind you to the Lil Miss racks. You picked one up and started flipping the pages. And walked away to the cashier, leaving me standing with curious. At the exit, “Na, for you” “What’s this?” I asked“
