Pressure Makes Perfect!

Became *pretty* tired today!
(minus the pretty)

Crazy.
Busy.
Today.

But good! Key learning of the day is, there's nothing like pressure which bonds the unsuspected unexpected together. If you disagree, think Sandra Bullock & Keanue Reeves (Speed) - Frodo & the other bigfoot (Lord of The Rings) - Tom & Jerry - the entire cast of LOST etc. The list is never-ending! It reminds me of those crazy gaseous chemical reaction equations in which 'Pressure' acted as a catalyst.

Maybe its not the science of life, like biology but that of living. No wonder its all about chemistry.

If it aint working, just apply some pressure.

Crying Into The Wild

"Happiness is only real when shared"
Christopher McCandless

I never cry at the movies.
Perhaps blurred vision.
A tear or two, here or there.

I howled when this finished.
Sitting in my room. With my hands over my eyes.
Trying to stop. Failing. Miserably.

This is not a review. How can one review a life? We can only reflect. A close hard reflection in a big hard sun. Its like experiencing something being bent, bent, bent to be broken inside you. Something that will mend. Something that will mark.
Then I thought again. Why did it make me cry? I never cry at the movies. And I still don't.
But this was life.
And we all know what life makes us do.
It makes us cry.

Are Suits The Modern Man's Armour?



Etro - Fall 2008
Dress To Kill

This post actually started off as a fashion splog - which is a copy/paste blog - about the fashionscape of Fall 2008. Somehow, somewhere it got drapped differently. And while thinking, it got stiched into something completely different. A cut apart. Okay. Okay. Enough of the 'tailoriffic' references. Let me come to the (needle) point!

I was thinking.
If corporations are the new armies.
If office floors are the new battle-grounds.
If War-Rooms are the new, well... 'War Room's.

Then,
What we wear is The Neo Armour, no?


It hit me when I was getting ready for a day at work. And I will be vain enough to admit that I DO give two-cents about what I wear for the better remainder of the day. For this particular date, I decided to wear 3-piece. After buttoning & all, I felt protected. Almost secure. Wasn't if I was wearing it or hiding in it. But felt good. So, that got me thinking about this - whereas I should've been thinking about the presentation I had to give that day.



Shameless Armour-Adorning Self-Promotion


Surely the warriors-gone-by would have thought of this too. Not as superflously but still. Like the blue-lines in Braveheart. Like those pin-ups of 60s fighter-jets. Like that snug waist-coat. The one what makes you feel like a Snug Smug Thug! ;-)

But its just a thought.
Don't know if fits or not.

Now, onto more pressing matters:

D&G, DSquared, Rag & Bone, Georgio Armani Armours for Fall 2008
