Time is of the Essense



Time to cool off.

Time for an emotional vacation.

Time to let the dust settle.

Time to let things heal.


Time to allow us to miss each other's company.


Q .. Craving to see u once more.

Sam & i

I'm using the Samsung F480.



It's classy looking, super slim and sleek (barely 1cm thick and covered in leather, dark chrome and brushed aluminium; sure it is!) and its interface is amazing.

And oh, did I mention it has so many functions and a 5 mega pixel camera/vid cam to boot?

Amazing huh? All that and more in an impossibly sleek package.


I'm the type who's into really slim phones coz I cannot stand the massive bulge in my pants ( I meant the pockets ok? ) .

And trust me, it takes quite a phone to persuade me off my waif Motorola Razr.



My bro uses the new-fangled Apple iPhone.



First off, yes, it has its pluses. Its myriad of functions is mind boggling.

Its connectivity is unmatched.

But it also has its draw backs not typical of a seasoned mobile phone maker like Samsung, Sony Ericcson, Motorola or Nokia.

To be fair, no phone is perfect.

But there are features on the iPhone ( I am nit-picking here btw) which is glaringly omitted and it takes quite a commited fan to claim that those don't matter.


For me, the biggest issues are:
1) I never like anything that is getting too popular (a.k.a 'common') and where every other poseur possibly has one already.

2)As mentioned, I don't like my phones bulky. This the iPhone definitely is.

You see, other than the unsightly bulge it creates, I've had experienced before that a bulky phone simply gets lost too easily because you'd need to take it in and out often just to get it out of the way when you sit or when you need a little more freedom of movement.

So it begs the million-dollar question, do you really need that many fancy toys in a phone where you would sacrifice real world practicalities like size and you-thought-were-common-functions?



But , really, I'm not to judge.

Because usage patterns are different and unique to every one.

And it's only a question of getting used to. Moot point.


Well, it's all in the eyes of the beholder. (^^



Q...btw, do check out this interesting video on this topic at :

The Globe is in their hands

Oprah Winfrey is the first black-billionaire in the world and queen of the talk show circuit. Her reach is boundless for she's the most influential talk show host in the world. Culturally pivotal, every word she says is mantra to her fans and many.

Barack Obama is the 44th elected president of the USA. The most powerful man in the world. His actions will touch every corner of the globe. Every word that slips off his tongue can change the world we live in today.


Yes, they are the Power Os. The world is their O-yster.

Silence is not Golden...***



... in a Relationship.

There are the upheavals.

The ups and downs. But problems don't solve themselves.

Only through open and positive communication will things work out.


Talk it out. Make it happen.

Let's talk about (No) Sex


The Dalai Lama, , on Friday said
sex spelt fleeting satisfaction and trouble later, while chastity offered a better life and "more freedom."


"Sexual pressure, sexual desire, actually I think is short period satisfaction and often, that leads to more complication,"

He said conjugal life caused "too much ups and downs.

"Naturally as a human being ... some kind of desire for sex comes, but then you use human intelligence to make comprehension that those couples always full of trouble. And in some cases there is suicide, murder cases," the Dalai Lama said.


He said the "consolation" in celibacy is that although "we miss something, but at the same time, compare whole life, it's better, more independence, more freedom," the Dalai Lama waxed eloquent on the Buddhist credo of non-attachment.



"Too much attachment towards your children, towards your partner," was "one of the obstacle or hindrance of peace of mind,"
he said.



I'm at a cross-roads myself. At a heartache.

The power of suggestion is strong when one's in a dire circumstance.


Q ... But I do not necessariy equate sex with love?

Big Hair non the Better



Supermodel Tyra Banks is famed for her increadibly lustrous weave.


It's been once commented by a well-known reporter that this girl almost seems to have the ability to control every strand of her hair in the wind during a photoshoot.

Match that do a bodacious body, standing over 5 feet 10 inches tall, those famed electrifying green eyes, a megawatt smile that can melt anything and mocha skin, it's little wonder Banks is one of the biggest supermodels of all time.



Anyhow, back to the hairy issue, actually with a face as strong and stunning as hers, she can do without the big hair and still look a thousand times more fab than the next girl beside.


And Miss Bankable knows that, for sure.

Witness some shots:






Q... a follow-up post to the earlier post 'Short is Hot'.

The Dudes like it Low

The demin jeans is perhaps the Fashion world's greatest contribution to the real world.




No one can do with out them.

The wide variations in cut only goes to show how everyone needs a pair and how important it is to actually cater to the needs of the masses.

Whether a pair that cost no more than $50 at a flea shop or one that costs over a thousand dollars at a high-end store,

there's no denying that the jeans is a must have for anyone.


Well for me, I like mine Low-rise .



For 2 simple reasons (and no, 'sexy' is not one of them, sorry) .

1) Comfort: Less material at the hip region means is cooler and more comfortable to wear in a humid climate. Also , 'less you're wearing 'grandfather' undies which goes all the way to the arm pits, there'll be a lot of excess demin rubbing against your sides which is extremely uncomfortable.

2) Sleekness: Normal cut jeans tend to make you look bulky in the mid section, and even more so if you've a belt on and especially so if you've got a fitting top. Much like having a pool buoy at the hips. Not flattering.

And, what's the point of spending hours at the gym to get that trim and tight waist line only to hide it under thick denim?





Q... sleek, rugged and versatile. That's it for me.

The Babes like it High

Beyonce Knowles is 'addicted' to wearing high heels.

The 'If I Were a Boy' singer recently admits she can't help splashing out on expensive stiletto shoes every time she sees a shop selling footwear.
She said:
'I love those super-high shoes that are out at the moment. I'm addicted.... I love the High Heel'
~ MSN news.

Actually, she's not that famous a killer heel wearer.

Fashionista Victoria Beckham is the doyenne of towering stilts.


Witness:





Then again most of us already knew that didn't we?

Her Posh days were never over.

Mrs Becks wears the tightest couture and the highest heels.

I Still Believe



Affairs of the heart is the most painful .

So painful that you'll come to a point that the blame game is but a pointless revisit to the wound.

So it stops.

And all you hope and all you wish for is understanding , love and reconciliation.



Time will heal all wounds?


Q ...I still believe.

Princess of Kink

(Trying to distract myself a lil bit. ...)







Rihanna, is getting furious!


A double award winner at the recent AMAs (American Music Awards, for the uninitiated), her win (as well as her lacklustre, souless performance) was almost certainly overshadowed by her increadible S&M-inspired outfit by JPG.
Leather, corset, boots and spikes.



This girl's got curves that are for all to see but non to touch.



Q ... As what Ferocia Coutura always said... 'Fierce!'

Broken Promises lead to a Broken Heart

Was blog surfing , just can't fall asleep with all this pain in me.



How true:

"....too much pain can really melt away the love.. whenever you think about *** and you remember all those hurtful things *** had done (intentionally or not) the flame keeps on burning... as much as you want to forget about it.. it is not that easy.. there are times when you think about it as if your brain has an automatic alarm that will remind you that "this is what *** has done to you" and tha pain will be felt all over again and you'll start to cry...

crying.. your only escape from the pain that you're feeling... and makes you wish you won't feel it again...

at times i still have this automatic alarm in my brain that reminds me of all the painful things that happened to me and it makes me scared, that maybe one day i'll be experienceing it again and worse with the same person.. ( now that's emotional suicide)... "


Can anyone be so inconsiderate and hurtful?

Especially when there's is supposed to be love in the mix?


Q... I pray this pain will go away.

R.E.S.P.E.C.T pls



I really don't understand why relationships have to be made so complicated.

When you love some one, do you not show care, concern and respect ?

I'm not asking for money or blood.

All I asked is the simple action of consideration and integrity in one's actions and words.



Is this person's heart made of stone? ... When a promise is broken once too often, this person has become nothing more than a Liar (?!).
I don't want to acknowledge that . But my baby is becoming. :(:::

Q ....Is my heart made of stone?

Sigh.
