Family Dinner with the Family

Wednesday, February 8th, 2012

Every month, my family and I would eat at a restaurant together, probably two to three times a month. I love these times because I get to eat lots of food that my mother can’t cook at home.

And during these times, I would see familiar faces or sometimes my classmates and friends. Last week, we had our family dinner again and this time I saw my favorite high school teacher. She was with her husband and they were two tables away from us. I saw her first and waved. She smiled back at me and waved with a clutch in hand. I was interested with her clutch because it looked unusual with its obvious wooden frame. I kept on looking at her clutch and realized that its body was made from a faux leather material. Though the large wooden frame looks a bit odd, I admire its great retro look.

And before we left the restaurant, I went to her table just to compliment her clutch. Obviously, she was flattered, and we just said good byes to each other.

My Son Wants Some Magic Gloves

Friday, January 27th, 2012

Ikkyu Having Too Much Fun! « DIRTII LaundryThe other day my son comes up to me and tells me that he wants magic gloves. At first I thought he was talking about gloves that performed magic tricks or something. Like the other day I saw this TV show where they were investing in a pair of gloves that had a microphone and ear piece in the thumb and pinky fingers. The gloves worked through bluetooth with your cell phone, so you could just put your hand up to your face and talk on your cell phone. It was a pretty cool product, but that isn’t what he was talking about. He just wanted a pair of gloves that are marketed as magic gloves. They don’t do anything except keep your hands warm, but they do look kinda cute for a kid, so I picked up a pair for him, and a case to sell at the flea market!

The Guy Wearing Penfield Jackets

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

There was a guy that I saw at the mall who was so hot. He was wearing one of those Penfield jackets that were featured in the latest GQ magazine. The guy looked like he was a model with his nice haircut. The way he stood also suggested that he was a model.

I was stealing glances at him because I did not want him to see me checking him out. To make it less conspicuous, I sat on a bench very far from him. The bench was facing him so there was no way that I cannot see him. He cannot accuse me of checking him out because that was just the way the bench was positioned.

The guy was sipping coffee. He looked like he was waiting for somebody. After an hour, a girl arrived. My heart was crushed because she was also so beautiful. So much for daydreaming he will notice me.

A tough bag is not only durable, but it has to provide the most convenience for its user in terms of storage capability and ease in carrying.

The Lady in a Long White Lace Dress

Sunday, December 11th, 2011

White Lace Dress Forever21 Dresses, Black Fringe Jacket Hm Blazers ...When my brother arrived from Spain after 5 long years, we went out to go clubbing; something we haven’t done for a really long time. We did the same things we used to – drink, dance, sing, drink again and went home at 3 in the morning. We drove all the way from the club to our house and this was when we I saw the lady in a long white lace dress.

I am not a superstitious person. I don’t believe in ghosts. But I was sure I was not dreaming or hallucinating when I saw the lady in the long white lace dress. I couldn’t see her face but I was so sure of what she wore – a long white lace dress. When we passed by her, I felt a cold rush of air brushed my arm. I looked back to see if she was still there, but she wasn’t. From that day on, I did not pass that road anymore. At least not at 3am.

Call to Men: Wear Colorful Golf Pants

Thursday, November 24th, 2011

Who says men are not allowed to wear colorful golf pants? It is the hippest thing these days!

Funny? Deviant? Eccentric? These will probably be the response of most men. But no, it’s not! It is just a new way of expressing one’s individuality as a man. I don’t think that men who want to wear colorful golf pants will violate the rules. The unbreakable notion that men are supposed to wear dark colors should be eliminated. Who says that a color represents one’s gender? That is a point of view of a narrow minded person. Liberal way of looking at things should be practiced now. Masculinity is not seen in your color preference. In fact, it is more interesting to see a man wearing colorful golf pants while playing the sports!

So men, heed the call now! Wear colorful golf pants! Play with colors. Make a mark! Let other men follow you!

Become+a+graffiti+artist Funky Graffiti Tutorials using Photoshop and ...If you are the owner of a Banksy t shirt then you will no doubt have been exposed to many different comments when wearing your t-shirt in public. All the Banksy t shirts have startling images on them that leave you thinking. They are often described as dark humor but there is no doubt that the subversive epigrams are thought provoking. Banksy learned his trade on the back streets of Bristol where he grew up as the son of photocopier technician, he started as a free hand graffiti artist but his style soon changed to the innovative stencil type of graffiti that he has become famous for. Recently this famous graffiti artist from Bristol UK sold a painting of his at a famous London auction house called Sotheby’s for more than $400 000 and when Banksy was contacted after the sale he said "I can’t believe that you morons actually buy this shit."

Don’t Always Opt for the Little Black Maternity Dress

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

MIMI MATERNITY Pink Stretch Turtleneck Sweater Sz M - eBay (item ...When you are looking for your Maternity Clothes, the general advice seems to always be that black will slim you down and that colours and patterns are to be avoided at all costs as they will bring attention to your bump and make you look bigger than you normally are. However now that we have moved into a more educated society where pregnancy is to be celebrated, rather than hidden, it is no longer necessary to try and hide your pregnancy, in fact it is now en vogue to show off your bump and celebrate the fact that you are bringing a new life into the world – and what better way to do that than with some colour.

The little black dress is always going to have a place in every woman’s heart. It is practical, flattering and incredibly flexible, which means you can wear it again and again and no one will realise you are wearing the same dress with different style combinations.

However when you are pregnant, the rules can change somewhat. You are not going to be wearing Maternity Dresses for very long and certainly won’t be wearing them season after season, so why not have some fun with your colour and enjoy the change in your body shape rather than trying to hide it.

If you look at some of the top maternity designers, you will always see the element of black for the more traditional pregnant woman but they are now also pushing the boundaries of pregnancy clothes designs and combining gorgeous colours and textures to implement fun and activity into maternity clothes, something that has been long overdue.

Now you have the opportunity to select bright colours that will match your changing skin tone and bring an element of fun into your maternity wardrobe. Look out for shapes and colours that appeal to your nature and have some fun with your maternity wardrobe.

Can a Rockstar Be Old?

Friday, October 28th, 2011

Can you be too old to be a rockstar? Age isn’t that important when it comes to being a genuine rockstar. After all, look at Mick Jagger and his band. They are all grandfathers now, but they will always be known as rockstars. The same applies to many other stars of the sixties and seventies. They put in their time; they paid their dues; they made a lot of records and played a lot of concerts. Therefore, they can always be regarded as rockstars. Mind you, there comes an age when a rockstar may have to slow down and take it easy. At some point, he doesn’t want to play for large crowds and he’s created all the music he’s going to create. He might begin to dress more like a retired banker than a devil-may-care rebel. Some rockstars age gracefully, without getting too upset by their lost youth, while others may go on a final spree of reckless behavior. But no matter how old a rockstar gets, he still has his memories of those crazy nights performing in front of screaming fans.
