The Lost Baggage: July 2010

The end of my searching Journey

Have you ever wanted something so bad that you would go so far to get it. I'm definitely not talking about girls here.. I'm talking about passion here. PASSION FOR SHOES!! :))
Well I have been searching for a shoe for quite sometime.. it was released back in 2007 for a limited pairs. Well i was kinda unlucky as financially i am not that secured back then ( as if i am so secured now :S )

Lets talk about this shoe in particular. It's called Rakugaki from Asics Onitsuka Tiger. I am so into this particular brand because for me it is like the casual version of clarks. and I would go for design that wont be available in uptown or worn by those Remps ( Rempit sounds abit ugly )
Well here's a description from a review from one of famous shoe website on the net

Onitsuka Tiger by Asics have given some of their classic models a Rakugaki treatment. Rakugaki, a Japanese term, roughly translates to “doodle” and after taking one look at these models, it will be easy to know why that the name was chosen. The Mexico ’66 and the Samatore features high quality leather uppers with a graph paper like print. No information is presently known about the release.

About the journey itself. It started in 2007 but back then i know that owning this shoe that very moment would be impossible and as the year passes on.. as you know for the limited shoe wont add up in the market so the quantity become lesser and lesser. Earlier this year in 2010 i browsed through a lot of online forum, ebay, mudah, lowyat forum and not a single person who owns this shoe wanted to sell them for some obvious reason.

There's actually a shoe available in eBay international but it costs 299usd. Well you do the math if its not even inclusive of the shipping costs. The shoe location is in New York and you can expect another at least RM200 for the international shipping. Bearing in mind the risk of losing the shoe on the way to Malaysia.

Then today 20th July 2010. I saw someone asking about anyone selling rakugaki ( i gave up asking long time ago ) and there is this one guy stated that he actually owns one and wanted to sell because its small for him. It was 8US 7UK in size. To be honest i am wearing a size bigger but what the heck, i PM the guy and asked him about the price and i would do immediate COD at his place just for the sake of this shoe and the rest is history.

owh just look at that delicate design... :)) u made my day dear shoe

When sexy Red meets Elegant Black

A week ago i came across this blog selling housing for Blackberry.. and it catches my eyes straight away and I, as usual, impulsively ordered some for myself. Until now I am not sure why I did it but then, today was the day to pick up the package. I was excited for the whole week and cant wait to get a new look for my phone. A little bit about the seller,he's known as Eric and his blog is kinda famous with a lot of followers and trust me he do know his way around BB. It's just awesome when you can do something you are passionate about in life. and better of... earn something from it.

Well, I own a black leather wallet with red stitches to complete the magnificent design and for some of you who may know me, I have this affection towards Red and Black combination.

In the English language, the word red is associated with the color of blood, certain flowers (e.g. roses), and ripe fruits (e.g. apples, cherries). Fire is also strongly connected, as is the sun and the sky at sunset.

Perhaps this color combination on my newly owned phone would be a start for my red and black collection. I always wanted a car with black and red interior. Kinda sexy huh? well anyway here are the pictures of my phone. Owh by the way.. "thx Eric for pimping my BB"

New Red Trackball

Classy Black Metalic Back Cover

Metallic Hot Red Bezel to seal the deal

Eminem X Rihanna

There's a new collaboration between rihanna and eminem in the new song entitled "the way you lie". i cant stop playing it as it is the only song i have in my BB and my Computer.. haha.. anyway the lyric is kinda good too.. here's some of it..

Baby please come back

It wasn't you
Baby it was me
Maybe our relationship
Isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe that's what happens
When a tornado meets a volcano
All I know is
I love you too much
To walk away though
Come inside
Pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don't you hear sincerity
In my voice when I talk
Told you this is my fault
Look me in the eyeball
Next time I'm pissed
I'll aim my fist
At the dry wall
Next time
There will be no next time
I apologize
Even though I know it's lies
I'm tired of the games
I just want her back
I know I'm a liar
If she ever tries to fucking leave again
I'mma tie her to the bed
And set the house on fire

p/s: im kinda reluctant to let go of my BB now as massive bad reviews on iphone4 antenna problems.. i guess ill stick too the current phone. its not bad at all
