Winter Ready X With my Homie: Vacation Glovies
天藍轉灰轉黑 X 也微笑不插嘴: 十萬毫升淚水
每一次的失去
都像一場小小的死亡
卻又伴隨著重生
緩緩的到來
十萬毫升淚水 / 蔡健雅
十萬毫升淚水 / 蔡健雅 詞:小寒 曲:蔡健雅
知道我不完美 能給的我都給 這一次會氣餒 連平凡愛一回 滿意了嗎 你究竟有完沒完 人的一生會積累 十萬毫升淚水 並不是我後悔 愛會痛我奉陪 滿意了嗎 你究竟有完沒完 有完沒完 我已無條件投降 |

心情好壞 X 誰關懷:今天請快
下午就把背包打不見了
結果點了一下
裡面總共有三個大小包
還有一套
未曾去過海島的比基尼
真的好愛她 幻想過
下一次去哪就把她帶上
不過貌似我真的成熟
淡定得事發過後
還能和朋友去吃飯
再若無其事地回家
一起吃飯那個朋友
她男朋友在迪拜工作
所以會過來畢業典禮
然後兩小口去拍婚紗照
再回去西安領證辦禮
隨後再一起回迪拜
好令人羨慕
人生都規劃好了
而我
一個連背包也看不好
連個戀愛也談不上
畢業也不知干啥
支持誰誰就不會贏
心情好爛也
不知道找誰說的黑羊
這是我大學生涯的最後一天
難道平凡點就會死嗎
實在感覺好遜好遜
今天應該很開心
請繞了我吧
金馬之夜
黑暗VS陽光
兩大連光頭都
帥到不行的男神
都落馬了
Oh come on
You gotta be kidding me
甚麼
明天是星期天
但我目前實在好沮喪
Lost X Never Found: My backpack on the Ground
before leaving the train station
realized I left the whole rug sack
went to the ticketing counter
the person was quite helpful
called up the next station
so that they could pick it up for me
she told me they have found it
so I have to wait for the next train to come
and a staff walked to the platform to pick up
but she didn’t come back with anything at all
so she told me:
no, no backpack has been found
Puma rug sack
Mng shopping bag
Roxy pull string bag
damn the bag and
the bags within bag are the
pinch I first felt
then I recalled more
Rip curl bikini set (OMG!! My fav)
mng dress
Roxy flora tank top
Cotton on flip flop
Some personal items
Which probably doesn't worth much
Sun block, toner, comb etc
Including some Wacoal under garments
A typo notepad
Gift from Mag
Featuring Snoopy as Joe cool
"too cool for school"
In shorts
These things do not worth much to
Who ever took my bag
Who the fuck will wear used bikinis
But it does worth something to me
As a owner
The sentiment value you see
So I don't know
Although I left my phone and email
I doubt my phone is going to ring
It's now it never
And oh there's a kettle at the bottom
It has been with me for seven years
But it's okay
It doesn't hurt that bad to lose
so many things at one go
Imagine I lost a phone or
a tablet or a camera
That's more hurtful, definitely
But still
I don't buy expensive things
But neither are my stuffs cheap
I wont dare to calculate
How much I need to reimburse
If I were to replace these items
And I hate being a sentimentalist
I remember exactly
Where when how and how much
I bought these items for
R.i.p.
11232013
okay I still have the pink one
not worn yet

Juno X SoftHard: Lam-Man-Lung Revisit
2007, from the album of
《Chapel of Dawn》
quite a catchy tune
and cheeky lyrics and
I always like X-over whereby
the uniqueness of the collaborators
emerged in the work
instead of succumb to the other party
in order to become one
SoftHard sounds like the good old them
Juno is pretty much the cool new him
and *bang…*
however there’s one thing which
always got me thinking and
I finally got the answer
randomly on a bus ride while
looping Juno’s 《Nothing Lasts Forever》
a compilation of his best
it’s regarding the title of the song
《林民龍》 which is obviously a name
of the shy guy portrayed in the song
who is hesitating to date a girl
but why this name?
okay it sounds like one of
those common guys who
pass you by on the street
but still there must be a reason
then I finally realize
okay 3 characters of the name
taken one each from the collaborators
林 from 林海峰 Jan Lamb
民 from 葛民輝 Eric Kot
龍 from 麥浚龍 Juno Mak
bingo
it’s a tic-tac-toe
5 years later
and I finally discovered this
how slow and insensitive can I get
the one and only thing is
the music video actually disappointed me
Juno is known for making really impressive MV
so is this one with its 3D animation and all
and the looks are actually based on
SoftHard’s 2007 《Long Time No See》
making-a-come-back album
but yet it fell short of my expectation to
actually see three of in real person

Daddy X cum Boyfie: Clothes’ Ideology
bought my dad this polo tee
pretty simple yet lovely
I even thought of buying one myself
maybe, if there’s smaller size
I have been buying men’s clothes anyway
but the idea of couple clothes doesn’t
really appeal to me, specifically
those which are exact couple shirts
coming in a pair
you got what I mean?
I am okay which those
mix n match couple outfits
but not those exactly the same brand/design
meant to be bought and worn as couple clothes
expecially those that portray
LO on one shirt, VE on another
or some thing like that
eg: these are within my level of acceptance
Olivia Palermo and Johannes Huebl
they are the best exemplars
Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr
(those good old days)
okay by the way
I guess I have this tendency to
fit my dad into my clothes’ ideology of
what a man should be wearing
I bought him Rip Curl shorts,
New Balance sneakers, but
somehow polo tees fit in more easily of
my ideology to be “practiced” on
a middle-aged granddad
there are a lot of time
while walking with him or
with someone else or alone
bumping into items which
I desperately like to see my guy wearing
I mean desperately wanting to see
not that I desperately wanting a guy
baby blue oxford shirt
vintage cartoon tees
some white kicks
chambray shirt
then I looked at my dad
arrgh… nevermind
and I gave up the idea of
buying and keeping for future
I kept some since 2010
and some are still intact with tags
some already been worn by me
who ever who comes
he shall have those “staple items”
I guess
take it or leave it
why should I be bothered to go
customize his wardrobe so that
it fits my ideology
it’s more meeting someone
who like what I wear and
at the same time, wears what I like
that’s more like it

Boycott is X a Must!: No Next Time, MAS
was trying to securing our tickets to Xiamen
yesterday there were these
funny phenomenon that
no economic tickets are available between
the date of 1st and 10th
how could that be
you mean so many people are flying?
i should have realized the fishy-ness
it’s okay
let it be, then i returned to the site
a few hours later
finally secured tickets on
the particular date we wanted
just to discovered that
my dad’s passport is expiring in
less than six months time
it’s okay
so we went to get it fixed, immediately
and came right back to book
and so.. there’s no available tickets again
it’s okay
probably tomorrow some tickets will be released
all i am asking for is a pair of tickets
economic class ticket,
non-promo price or whatsoever
today morning at 7am
the price has hiked up like so so much
a pair of returned ticket is amounted to 3312 MYR
it’s okay
since my dad wanna go on this trip
quite badly for some time already
unlike the other destinations,
this is like a homegoing thing
so we shall proceed, although
it’s a little way out of the original budget
so here i went
trying for a couple times
still encountered the same thing
it’s okay
assuming there was an issue with the card
i tried to make a all new booking with debit card
which turned out to be:
no tickets are available anymore
not even one at the jacked-up price
so i don’t know
just let it be, i’ll see later if
tickets happened to be released
and it seems that MAS is the best alternative
comparing Xiamen Airlines which flies
once a week to and fro
Fri – Xiamen-KL
Sat – KL-Xiamen
and the price is way exceeding 4000 RMB
another choice, China Southern
which requires transit at Guangzhou
long hours of overnight at Guangzhou
i had spent night at Baiyun Airport and
definitely would not ask for another
after awhile
someone called me on phone
03 7882 3004
claiming to be customer service agent from MAS
she had all the details of mine, the flight details etc
asking if i would like to perform the transaction
over the phone with another card
of course not!
my first impression is
you spammer!! MAS are just so screwed!
so i hung up,
she said will call back in 2 hours time to
confirm or else she would have to
cancel the pending booking
there ain’t much left,
only 4 tickets left for economic class
haha!! you gonna be kidding me
i was at the seat selection page earlier on
it was all so empty
i asked her if
she could release it immediately and
i could go online and grabbed it
she said no, because
there are other customers on the waiting list
okay whatever
i thought i really have to give up
because tickets were not released yet
until i was like
should i try once more on Skyscanner
yes i should
just a random try
and guess what
i found way cheaper tickets with Cathay Pacific
via Skyscanner, redirected to Expedia
700 MYR, cheaper for two pax
MAS called me up again
as promised, two hours after the first
i told her to just cancel the pending booking
i don’t want any more trip with MAS if
they could be that stupid to ask for
credit card details over the phone
although Cathay Pacific’s flight are indirect
with transit at Hong Kong
so much more flexible since
KL-HK flights are like 4 times per day
and there are so many choices to combine from
shortest are 2 hours,
some can even stay up to 12 hours in HK,
if you really want to
tried to book but i can’t
so i suspected that the credit card was locked
due to previous unsuccessful attempts with MAS
went to check at the bank
WTF!!
the transaction with MAS has been approved
according to the bank
so it’s pending payment
not-cancelable
but why,
if the transaction has been approved
why didn’t they issue the ticket itinerary
no nothing
so i called them up
okay keep calm
and the agent actually told me
yes i made 3 attempts in total
1st one was canceled
2nd one was also canceled
but the 3rd transaction was pending
which means neither approved nor voided
so i actually have to wait for 7 working days
so that they will remit the money back to me
what the fuck is wrong with them
that’s 3,300 MYR
and i have to call up everyday if
it has already been refunded
that’s not all
since it is held up here
i wouldn’t dare to lock down the booking with
Cathay Pacific
what if suddenly MAS tell me
the pending transaction is successful
so congratulations we will issue the tickets
and i will be left with 4 pairs of tickets
so i couldn’t be doing anything
until any confirmation from MAS
what’s wrong with them
called up my bank again
and they actually said that
nothing can be done from their side
if MAS promised a refund then
i have to pressurize them more
black Thursday?
looks like it
pray for the best!
it couldn’t get any worse!
p.s.
i took back my word back in Mar
Clock Ticks X New Pick: Secured Airtics
no more MAS even if it’s cheaper than AirAsia
and hey, there’s Cathay Pacific still
which is connected to more cities at mainland

happy meal x paul frank: Go Banana with Julius
never fail to check this
whenever i pass by
finally something that interest me
used to blog a whole post to clarify
hey, this monkey is Julius
Paul Frank is the father of Julius
i mean.. the father as in creator
and the brand name being paul frank
without the capital letters
Paul Frank is not a Monkey
after the
Hot Wheel x Barbie collection
followed by a “surprise-in-a-box”
it’s just a nicer term for
stock clearance
whatever leftover from previous collection
that would your surprise toy
was kinda excited
forgot to do what i usually did
to ask about the toys available
before ordering a meal
so i ended up with a “surprise in a box”
grotesque!!
uneven skin tone Barbie with
hair that looks as if she is a skinhead wearing a wig
and this is a play-pretend as Odette!
you gonna be kidding me!
i have a couple of happy meal Barbies
from previous collections
not nearly as bad
nevermind it’s okay
so when is Julius coming for real
so what i will do here is to classify
(i) must-have
(ii) maybe
(iii) no, thanks
must-have
and maybe a pair
the higher-priority maybe
the normal maybe
the lower-priority maybe
the this-is-kinda-interesting maybe
oh man
does it help if i classify this way
it’s like out of eight
i only made up my mind like
one item is a big no-no
but majority under “maybe”
arrggh i don’t know
that’s the thing
somehow happy meal doesn’t really
makes me happy at times
and i have to get rid of the non-veg burgers
one way or another in a
non-wasteful way
by the way
this was all over Europe, Oct-Nov
if this is landing here soon
no hesitation!! buy them all
if only, only if

RubberBand X Easy Sessions: Music, Minus the Complications
found myself awake at 4 something today
it’s past twelve now right, so
i mean yesterday
while i fell asleep after one am
so what’s this??
Monday night
i fell asleep at 1something am
woke up Tuesday morning at 4 something am
which means less than 4 hours of sleep
although i really really do not have any
commitment or errand for the day
i was like what the heck
there’s no way i could fall back to sleep
workout? 5am in the morning
alright bring it on
just to tire myself out a little
and I finally managed to
calm my rattled self
after digging some RubberBand’s videos
which are really good stuffs
ought to be shared long time ago
so in a nutshell
in line with the theme of the album,
entitled 《Easy》
they did some Easy Sessions
performing all ten songs in the album
at different locations
including a wet market, record store
which reflected back to
what are the songs are all about
yay that’s exactly what 《Easy》is all about
taking on a very comfortable tone and manner
fitting into the space that’s given
while exploring different themes on
people of all walks of life
common values, ambitions, anxiety
simple yet not easy!!
that’s their tag

Rats X Is That..: Caught in the Ad
summer 2013
such a pleasant surprise
to bump into full ambient ad of
《Caught in the Web》
my favorite movie back in summer 2013
Who’s Bad X Kinda Sad: Caught in The Web 搜索
one year gap,
so is this going to be here
like let's say on a long term basis
that would be great
but how about the costing?
and Tian An Men East is
one of the busiest Metro station in Beijing
Tian An Men Square
Forbidden City
Maosoleum of President Mao
National Museum
are just around the corner
the museum is just stunning
can't wait to share,
until one find day when
I have the time to
hundred of photos are still stuck
in my camera, Lexis
National Centre for Performing Arts and
Great Hall of the People
are somewhere around too
so you probably can imagine
this is the heart of Beijing
at least for tourists and visitors
Caught in the web of Beijing
and it actually feels good
I don't know
I simply love being in Beijing
it has got too much to offer

Mentally Wrecked X Emotionally Depressed: Spiritually Dead
我累了
我真的很累
昨晚洗了澡刷了牙
就準備睡覺了
明明才七點鐘啊
但真的不想動了
晚餐就省了些功夫吧
結果
明明很累卻睡不著
刷YouTube到一點多
哇靠,得不償失
眼睛快瞎了才睡得着
今早上做早餐
当然就特别的饿
發現燕麥片吃完了
我明明記得還有大半包
怎麼就沒有了
這是從來沒發生過的事
那可是我為生的主食
中午睡個半小時的午覺
區卷在牆角,抱著平板睡
就為了不能太安逸,睡超時
模模糊糊的一直看時間
突然驚醒 喔四點半了
我明明才睡著不久
再看清楚,
沒事啦,是兩點半
不過也是時候復工了
傍晚,洗著澡
想着事 想着想着
莫名地惆悵起來
那種"週一藍"的不祥感
唉唷,週末就快過去了
進展太慢了,效率太低了
怎麼辦 怎麼辦
突然才發現今天是星期五,
對很多人而言,
週末剛剛開始
你幹嘛這樣啊!
我想
我真的累了。
很恐懼
電腦手機平板的通知
是哪個好同學突然發現
還沒弄作業來求救了
是哪個同學在問:
So who is doing this
So what am I supposed to do
我真的真的很累
再不消失恐怕就要瘋掉了
就撐著
過了禮拜一就沒事了
禮拜一後
再告訴自己
過了禮拜六就沒事了
沒事了 沒事了
累了就去睡吧
日免安
拜托不要再刷YouTube了
好了就刷一个MV
new release today
感覺特別好的畫面
我覺得要是后面
出水面的那part
突然contrast成彩色
會有種海闊天空的感覺
親愛的海洋君,
我想我想你了
在未來通通都也美麗到不能
我看盡悲愴學會天真盼望
我若栽種快樂
赤地總有春光
懸崖下天際無盡廣
要是我相信 置身於污泥也心花放
你亦可以渴望
以樂觀種甘果
浮雲下天際原是可
美麗到不能
昨天的哀愁即管釋放
美丽到不能 / 蓝奕邦
美麗到不能 / 藍奕邦 曲:藍奕邦 詞:藍奕邦 編:何秉舜@goomusic 監:何秉舜@goomusic/藍奕邦
面前有枯樹 春雨未降落 我都放得下 懷疑絕望眼光 在未來通通都也美麗到不能 困於廢墟內 浮華尚未到訪 在未來通通都也美麗到不能 你亦可以渴望 |
