At 40, Earth Day Is Now Bigger.

I think many of us are not very keen on all these "I-need-a-specific-date-to-celebrate Day", and I'm pretty sure that many of these many think it's just a joke. Let me list down few of the so-called "Day":

Nahh, I'm not gonna waste my time to list it. Just go to Earth Calendar if you're curious.

Anyways, today marks the 40th year celebration, or shall I say "acknowledgment", of the Earth Day.

Funny isn't it? The Earth has been around for about 4.5 billion years, and she just received the Birth Certificate, 40 years ago.

Kidding.

I don't mean to be rude to anyone, especially not to the Mother Earth. Nanti kena panah petir dohh..

So yeah, Ouch Media and EcoKnights (which I'm volunteering for) is organising a special event called the Earth Day Carnival since 15 April 2010, until 25 April 2010. This is happening at Ikano Power Centre, Damansara from 10.00am to 10.00pm.

Y.B. Edward Lee officiated the event on the 17 April 2010

Earth Day Carnival @ Ikano aims to set a clear example for people and businesses how simple lifestyle changes can make a difference. For example, it will feature wide-ranging on-site recycling demonstrations, sales of green products and services and food vendors providing organic and meatless delicious food that require few wasteful utensils. Additional highlights of the day will include environment displays and demonstrations, interactive and educational booths by many local environmental non-profit and small business groups, performances by local and regional musicians, arts and crafts, and a Kids’ Zone for youngsters. More than 15 additional organizations such as the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF Malaysia), EcoKnights, Tiny Tapir, and Whiz Wits is participating this year.

Sometimes, it is all for the charity.

This is one of the things that we often overlooked. Charity.

Yes I know most of us think that we need to use our money mostly for our own use i.e pay the bills, eat, pay loans and buy shoes (just the way I like it).

This time, I am going to invite all of you to a very interesting charity event.

You can find out more about this charity event HERE, HERE and HERE. Trust me, it is going to be DOPE!

Sometimes, it is all for the charity.

Have a great weekend, and with all due respect, Selamat Hari Thaipusam to the Hindus.

Dem yuh!

Super Trooper.

Me, HAPPY.


Dem yuh!

Persistent motherfucker

And that person ladies and gentlemen, is ME.

Why?

Exactly a year ago, I did write something. You wanna know the whole story check it out

HERE

After a year, a year goddamnit, I fulfilled my wish-list. It took me one year. I feel like crying now. Tahan, tahan.

Good things come in package

Well compared to my original wish-list, I couldn't settle down with the original version as it costs the pocket around 4 grand. Instead:

In this case, good things sometimes come in small package too

Six little bastards cost me a bomb shit

See how practical these things are? They can be turned into ceiling fan too.

Future birthday gifts for the three dissected warriors

Yes, it wasn't easy. Keyword: PERSISTENT.

See how persistent I can be on TOYS. How silly could that be? So, just imagine if I really want something out of this world?

Dem yuh!

Joyous.


Woot woot!

Pick-up: April's FULL!

"Pick-up" is not about picking up girls, it's so lame. Seriously to all the guys out there, get a life.

My definition of "Pick-up" is basically buying something, same as shopping but more significant to my passion. As for me, it's always sneakers and anything related to fashion. I don't post my pick-up of groceries because it does not make any sense to my passion.

I have not updated anything about my pick-ups. In fact, I think I've never had this kind of entry yet. Well guess what, I will try and start this special "Pick-up" entry, starting this month! It's gonna be a monthly thing, where I'll be writing about stuff that I bought for the month.

Let us start now. This will be for the month of April 2009.

First up, is the Adidas Kegler Super! It's super! And in it's original colorways! I've rocked them quite a few times already. Adidas is my new craze! You can find this sweeties at selected Adidas Originals stores around South East Asia. *ehem-ehem* KLCC *hint hint*

Hail Kegler!

Second up, is the Nike Dunk Hi Vandal Premium in black/black colorway with super-fine full nylon material. The good thing about this nylon material is that, it doesn't creased easily and yes, it looks super-shiny and super-rich too! Grab them at Sole What? now!

Darth suit.

Owh shit I forgot. It comes with a set of pink laces. PINK. And yes it looks mighty fine and cute too, believe me. Pink is not for girls anymore. Girls, just move on with it.

With a darther bow-tie...

Third pick-up of the month, is this classy yet simple Pedro leather shoes for my formal wear. This is rather unusual for the family, but hey the other shoes are professionals so they totally understand. Yes I have to wear it for my meetings or any other formal purposes, though I believe I can still wear it with shorts and polo shirt. Will try that later.

Welcome to the family pendejo..

Next, is something that I've posted before I got my hands on it. This hustler came all the way from Germany. The flight was delayed, and this hustler had some troubles with the authorities regarding the permits or visa to stay in Malaysia forever. Well he must be really excited to meet the new Master a.k.a BudakNakal.

Coming soon?????? No!!!!!!!

Finally (so sweet he brought a souvenir for me)

Yes this is a pair of Puma R698 x Solebox. I like it very much. Nice colorways, different materials used on the shoes (suade, mesh, what else) and it's only sold in Solebox. <-- Check their website! And we received a cool surprise, a light-beeping laces or whatever they call it. I'll try to lace it up later to TAG night ha ha!

Looks like a pair of handcuffs.. Me likey kinky from Germany...

Light me up bitch!

Deutschland delicacy...

Finally, the last pair. But this last pair are not sneakers. It's in a different category. It's a pair of jeans. Yes. Finally a dark black (I wonder if there's less-dark black or light black) slim-cut jeans for me (Can't wear skinny jeans coz my knots don't fit!). It's from McQ by Alexander McQueen.

Alexander McQueen is one of my favourite designer. He designs something different and in a way, his name just fits the aura. Like a rockstar, ain't it? I got these pair from M Store for Men at The Gardens, Mid Valley. Brought to you by Melium Group. Go check them out biatches!

Crime scene..

M is for...

Devil from valley of the darkness...

Micro-focus (this is solely for Joe Alif)

April's FULL!
