BlackBerry Bold 9700 I LVoe!

Be Bold. Be BlackBerry Bold 9700 that is.

In a few weeks from now, we (UAE's) will finally have BB's Bold 9700, from a source in Etisalat, first few units will arrive in 2 weeks time for a not so expensive price of 2,900 AED or 790 USD. 

I bet the mobile shops in Defence road or in Madinat Zayed Mall will have these before the big telecommunication companies here in the Emirates.

I am still thinking which one to have, Nokia's E72 or BlackBerry Bold 9700, or maybe iPhone 3GS again... Waaahhhh!

I still LVoe!

Secret...Shhhhhh!

Shhhhh...


Secret!


I don't know why most people when ask of something personal or just nothing or something, instead of answering directly or just by saying YES or NO, they will say... Secret! Crazy really...

I was watching local entertainment show when one of the host asked 1 actress if she has a gift already for her ex-beau, she answered SECRET! what's with that! Just say Yes I do have already but I can't say, it's a surprise!

Grrrrr! Pardon me but I haven't eaten my lunch yet that's why!

So much for the SECRET! Just say Yes or No next time please!

Cut the crap!

Preparing for my Dublin, Ireland, minimum rest tomorrow! I can't wait for this flight, eventhough its just a minimum rest, I know I'll enjoy the beer and Penny's hehehe!

Desert Rain, Coldstone & Vampire Assistant Today!

What I saw today....


Hmmm. I woke up late on a lazy weekend, Friday it is! Most countries in the middle east, weekend starts on Friday. I slept late last night so I tried to sleep more, I didn't then woke up with an empty stomach, tried to search the fridge and was able to find one pound of pork! Pork stew it is... Hmmmm.

It was a fun lunch with John and Lovely. Decided to go to Abu Dhabi mall and released some stress. Tried COLDSTONE, Signature creation and we loved it! Not so sweet, just right! Enriching experience it was!

John left us for the xmas party in Musaffah, so me and Lovely went on a watch hunting for Love's sis. Saw some nice working watch from GC ($355) at Paris Gallery and from Orient (Rolex-like) for ($170). I want it for this holiday season.Sigh!

After an hour I wanted to go home but for the first time I saw rain again here in Abu Dhabi,locals were amazed! so I decided to watch Le Cirque de Freak's the Vampire's Assistant, great FX and it made me relax for a bit and to kill time.

I LVoe!

10 Worst Male Fashion Offenses







1) Low V-Neck Shirts
While some men can pull off this American-Apparel look, most agree that it's generally offensive.


2) Popped Collars
Hopefully, men are slowly realizing that this is a fashion don't!


3) White Shoes
White shoes were banned from the Australian nightclub. You all want to ban them too. (I still LVoe wearing white shoes, sorry!)


4) Baggy Jeans
We don't need to see any boxers or butt cracks. Just make it fit.


5) Skinny Jeans
So baggy jeans are out, but so are skinny jeans according to you guys. Sounds like men need to find a nice in between fit. (LVoe this too!)


6) 'Manpris' (Male version of capri pants)
Let's choose either shorts or pants, OK?


7) T-Shirts With Stupid Slogans
Nobody's laughing. But nationalistic shirts are in.


8) Ed Hardy
All of you seem to agree that these designs just don't work. But we might be seeing more Ed Hardy – the brand is set to launch a line of baby products.


9) Sideways or Backwards Baseball Hats
It might work with Travis Barker's look, but most of you only want to see a baseball hat worn the correct way.


10) Flip-Flops Worn Anywhere but the Beach
Flip-flops with jeans: not a good look. We Asian love this fashion brand, but this fashion object is perfect if you live near the beach like in Brazil,Hawaii, Bali, Australia, Guam, Northern Marianas, Tahiti. But if you're in the middle of the desert like in Abu Dhabi or Dubai, it's a no no, unless you just came out of the beach in the corniche or the pools of Le Meredian and Sheraton, its ok.
 
Guilty as charged! I would say that prior to my fashion awakening, I am guilty of offense number's 2,3 and 5. Those were the days when everyone is like the same and thought that's so hot..huhuhu! We're young that time huhuhu!
 
My opinion is that you don't have to be like the one in every fashion magazine, just be yourself but dress accordingly. Above statement is just a guide, ask your friends or look in the mirror. If it does break, then you need to change attire, just kidding. Just don't go to the mall wearing like you just wake up and got out of bed, wearing basketball shorts as your alternate for jeans, flipflops and oversized shirts like you just want to put out your garbage on the chute, ah ah!. Reality is that people are still judgemental, you are what you wear. Unless you really don't care how you look and you want to be mistaken as somebody you don't want to hear from me. Dress right to feel right, empowered! He He He. It must not be expensive, just look and open your eyes, trust me, there is gold in your cheap thrill shops.
 
Just dress properly, be yourself, be free!
 
Ciao Ciao De Carabao!
 
I LVoe.

Where's The Lion King...My South African Experience...Again!


Hello Africa tell me how you doing?




South Africa is my favorite African country aside from Kenya, Madagascar, Algeria, Uganda and Tanzania. One of the safest maybe for tourists.




Again, I was overwhelmed by the modern, contemporary design of our hotel at Sandton, the upper east side of Johannesburg, Radisson Blu. The bed is perfect and the pillows were soft and heaven-like. Overall I am recommending this hotel for a perfect summer getaway, 2 minutes shuttle ride to Nelson Madela's square (shopping and eating area like Greenbelt) and around 7 minutes if you walk. Don't worry it is safe, just be careful crossing the streets and minding the signal lights & signs, most of the cars won't stop at you like in Europe and will run, straight to you and you might end up like the stray cats and dogs in Manila with their internal organs out in the street (yuckieee!!)






I slept like a baby here, rested well and regain my appetite to work again. After almost 12 hours working, we reached Oliver Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, the airport is huge, in preparation for 2010 FIFA world cup and indeed a long walk to our crew bus. Slept throughout the trip to hotel. Rested for almost 24 hours then flown to Cape town for a transit work. Finally saw the table mountain and I want to go there soon. After almost 2 hours of ground stop, duty free sighting and watched a funny movie "bandslam" were ready to go back to Joburg...

I can smell the pork ribs again.

It's nice to live in such place. I wanted to stay but we need to work and earn right so gotta be ready for another 8 hours flight back to the sandpit.

Till my next Joburg-Capetown flight, Don-kie!
