My pity Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2008

As a fans of Louis Vuitton. Yes, please don't tagging me as rich guy, what I means "fans of Louis Vuitton" is a supporter which carries the Louis Vuitton's 'print ad' in magazines and 'window' shopping at their shops. I am still not really can afford to own it the high fashion luxurious item yet, but I hope someday will own it one.

What I can say about creations by US designer Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer 2008? Chip and colourful? Or I suppose say cheap and ugly?

I have to say sorry to Louis Vuitton. If I can afford to own one, definitely will not choose this season design item, because to me Louis Vuitton is full of classic and elegant. I will not carry a scary contrast colours bag which cost more than US1200 but look like US120.

Meanwhile, If I not mistaken, Louis Vuitton has come out graffiti collection on the bags in Spring/Summer 2001 designed by Stephen Sprouse in collaboration with Takashi Murakami. When the collections came out is "shock" the fashion fans and the supporters of Louis Vuitton.

My point is sample, just walk in to their shops, check out what collections they carry on the display. Do you see any graffiti collection on the main display bags bar? The answer is no, but you can found the famous classic designs collection is always available on the display for many years.

Please don't tell me that ugly graffiti collection is too hot until unavailable, smart Louis Vuitton don't easily waste their opportunities to get fortune from your wallet.

Be creative like drinks vending machine?

Some people always have a misunderstood for people like me who do design for living. They thought designer brain is always be 'creative function' all the time, just like a drinks vending machine, push the button than get what it you needed.

I really hate some people I am work with it sometime. No matter how many time I explain and told them "I need more time to be more creative on the work", by end of the day, they only give me few hours to finish number of works.

During the rush hour in the middle input some idea on work, if they seem don't like the design, they will said: "can you be more creative....." Excuse me, how suppose I can be 'more creative' which even not enough time to finish the works?

Is that means writer need more time that designer do to work or designer just like the cheap drinks vending machine, push the button get what you need in anytime?

Foodball fever


Do you still remember been behind the line waiting to get a piece of Mexico coffee bread? After that fully lost control crazy about the fancy cupcake, than change your loyalty to J.Co or Big apple donuts not long ago. But now is cheese cake from The Loaf might turn to be everyone 'must try list'

On the first lunching, the shop is full of people desperate be the first one to taste it. I just wondering how long the cheese cake fever will stand on this time? a month, a year or even more?

Goodbye


Friday, 8.00 am. She totally walk out from door of my life without say a word or goodbye. Before that, I am told myself someday she might leaving us, but I didn't expected so sudden...

My brain is empty and frozen in second, tears fall a river. Her shocking death just broke the heart of everyone she loved. I close my eye wish time back to the past, phone never ring, she still alive. But than, things never change after open my eye, she is gone like a light blown off in the wind, left everyone she loved live in darkness.

God give her a life, but not in good life. She been live in difficult as a single mother of four children and working hard for family, by the time she retired starting enjoying the life, god took her away from us.

Is it fair for her and everyone she loved? I don't know. I believe god took her for some reason. Even she no longer with us anymore, but no one will forget her, we all love her and she will always alive in our heart. Goodbye my dear auntie.

Food of generations


Finally, I am visit this old cultural heritage town again. the last visit is three years ago.

The reason I visit this old town because the delicious foods and colonization heritage streets. But, I am feel cultural shock. This full of mixture traditions and cultural old town is completely change make it like others tourist cities. Unfortunately, the change didn't make the old town look better, but growing up some typical city buildings in the middle of this old town. Largest shopping mall just opposite of the Portuguese fortress gate, revolving tower on heritage streets...

However, I am glad that the taste of foods by generations is still keep it well like last time. On arrival, I had famous Nyonya Laksa as lunch at one of the Nyonya-Baba heritage street. A home-made ice cream and Tutti Fruiti for my afternoon tea break at the 60s retro dessert shop. A delicious street food Popiah as my starter for dinner. Main course, Satay Celup full of new experience for my first time in the lovely rainy night...




Since I am in a place full of nice foods, of course I can't waste my opportunity to taste, I had one of the special food on this heritage street. The famous chicken rice ball as my breakfast with fabulous home-taste soup before back to the place I am live.

Moral life


Some people believe a moral life must have religion apart, and they always thought people with non-religion most is living in mess.

I am believe god, just not into any religion codified as prayer, but my life is 'almost' moral as I thought.

I don't get drunk all the time, but I do drinks sometime for social life and party fever.

I don't always lie, but I do lie for some good reason like: "you look fabulous" for a bad fashion person with not hurt someone feeling.

I don't sex like sex bump, but I do have sex fantasy on my head when in dreams on my bed.

I don't say bad words, but I do "bitch" someone which find doubles on me.

I don't play dirty. but I do use litter dirty way sometime for 'special' reason.

I don't envious someone, but I do jealous person who's have brain and talents.

I don't avarice, but I do wishful someone generous on me.

Night before fall


Night before fall.
I am silence my mind enjoying the short beautiful sunset,
countdown the end of the day and waiting another day begin...
