Good Food ???
I had a very good dinner with friends last night but when I came home, my throat got very dry from the effect of MSG. That's mean... the food really wasn't good ! (It happened a lot in Thailand and I hate it.)

Equal Opportunity
No front row seats ??? What would Anna do ???
Rem Koolhaas and his team at OMA redesigned runway for PRADA S/S 2012 menswear collection. 600 visitors were seated on individual blue foam blocks distributed over a 1.5m x 1.5m grid throughout the entire space of the hall. These seating provides the audience with a front-row view for the entire space, no bad spot.

I Want Galliano Back
Where should I begin with Dior Fall 2011 Couture ? This is the first show of Dior Couture without Mr. Galliano and it was a disaster. The clothes are strange - and not in a good way - and lack of cohesiveness. It started off with look-like left over design of Galliano, then turned Gucci-hippy chic and closed off with piñata inspired gowns. I wanna cry...

Give Me One Moment In Time...
" I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity "

Oops !!!
In the movie Transformer 3, Frances McDormand's character told her assistant to grab something in one of her many bags. When her assistant asked which one, she said "it's Hermes BIRKIN green ostrich." But it turned out to be "Hermes KELLY green ostrich."
That's all...

Another Collaboration... Yawn !
I'm over H&M designer collaboration since LANVIN because the price is too high for the quality and when you wear them, it's still H&M. I'd rather go to Barney's warehouse sale for cheap designer clothes, and they're "real" designer clothes - not collaboration.

Quote of the Day
" Later that night I got to thinking about Narcissus, a man so consumed with his own image he drowned in it. Did he have no best friends to mirror back and help him reveal himself? And why is it that we can see our friends perfectly but when it comes to ourselves, no matter how hard we look, do we ever see ourselves clearly? "

Apology Not Accepted
As you may heard about Tracy Morgan stand-up comedy turned anti-gay rant. The incident was exposed by Kevin Roger on his Facebook note. Tracy said being gay is a choice, TV makes people gay, bullying in school is not a big deal, and the worst... he would stab his kid if he turns out gay. Some people may think this is a joke and we, gay people, should develop thick skin and be OK with it. I personally don't think this is even funny at all, especially when there are many gay people got killed - or driven to commit suicide - from being gay. He later apologize but the damage has been done. Here is the Facebook petition to remove him for NBC's popular show "30 Rock." Please help spread the words and eliminate hatred and homophobic, one person at a time...

There Will Be No REGRET
My friend posted this article on his Facebook account and I think it worth sharing. Ms. Bronnie Ware, a woman who worked for years with the dying, wrote a list of the top 5 regrets people say aloud on their deathbed. Which one do you think would be yours ???
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
Most people had not honored even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made.
2. I wish I didn't work so hard.
By simplifying your lifestyle and making conscious choices along the way, it is possible to not need the income that you think you do. And by creating more space in your life, you become happier and more open to new opportunities, ones more suited to your new lifestyle.
3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.
Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre existence and never became who they were truly capable of becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the bitterness and resentment they carried as a result.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
Everyone misses their friends when they are dying.
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice.
Thanks Bronnie for giving us heads up...
