fork in the road



this was our last destination together. and like the sign, it was also our last stop before the fork on the road. you went to the left, while i proceeded to the right.

it was just temporary, but i know i'm a better person now that i was before we met. it wasn't forever, but what was left in me was eternal. i hope it was as rewarding to you as it was to me.


Taylor Swift - Live in Vancouver


I saw Taylor Swift a couple of weeks ago and I have to say, that for someone as young as her... she knows exactly how to put on a show. I have been to a lot of concerts and the crowd was probably one of the loudest, most enthusiastic, overzealous of the crowds I've ever been in.

She comes of as someone genuine, hardworking, and incredibly grateful. She deserves all the success.

... That being said, is it wrong to wish I was holding someone's hand as she sang "Sparks Fly"?

vanity project #7





i was watching the stunning Wong Kar-Wai film In the Mood for Love, one of my all time favorite movies ever. while being looking at the amazing imagery of the film, i remembered this great photo from the Fall 2011 Gucci campaign and got inspired by it.

so in my bedroon, i set up the tripod and stood in front of my big screen projector and voila!

it's funny how all i have in this blog are photos of myself, but in reality, only i can take my own photos in various narcissistic and vain undress. i hate getting photographed.... i don't know. maybe it's because when someone else is equipped with the camera, i feel like i am at the mercy of their control. i don't like it. i guess being someone with a little dash of controlling/type A personality, losing my control over to someone else especially when it involves me causes certain neuroses that i for the most part, cannot shake off.





PS: I just had to take a photo in front of the stunning Maggie Cheung. This woman simply amazes me in many ways. So beautiful.
