Le Mer/I like Ben Sherman/And a question to ponder on.

Alright, before you do anything or read anything,
Click here!
Ah... now wasn't that nice?

Ooh... yeah...
Nice, wonderful, marvelous, french music featured in Mr.Bean's Holiday.
Oh and by the way its en titled "Le Mer" or in english "Somewhere beyond the sea".

Okay maybe you can't fully GRASP the beauty of the song because you have no idea (just like me) what the crap the guy is singing about! But, you see what he sings about, well i wouldn't say it didn't matter but hey, its harmless, because he's just talking about the beach.
Its something along the lines of meeting his lover at the beach and having a wonderful time.
"Ooh...Scandalous..." you mean say, but really it isn't. Well at least i think it isn't.
Don't you love these old classics? These old lovely french classics?
Somehow there is something about the classics that make me reminiscence.
Er but not there is anything to reminiscence about but yeah...
It just has that "oh-i-am-gonna-make-you-reminisize-whether-you-like-it-or-not" vibe about it.

Anyways, i haven't blogged lately.
Mainly because i didnt really have the 'inspiration' to.
Yes, you actually need 'inspiration' to blog.
Or at least to blog about something worth blogging and reading about.
But today, somehow after reading my friends blog, i just inevitably went to my own and started blogging.
So here i am!
Well aren't you glad. =)

Yes and so today is National Day, for my country at least it is.
And Yesterday was 08.08.08.
Yup, the opening of the OLYMPICS in Beijing for the very first time.
Honestly, when i watched it, i felt a certain sense of pride, well at least something like that.
I guess its because well, if you think about it, technically, i come from China (or at least my ancestors did, which in a way makes me come from there too, indirectly.)
I really enjoyed the opening, i can surely and truthfully say that it didn't make me bored.
In fact it amused me to such an extent i kept the channel on, yeah the channel that was showing
the Olympics Opening ceremony.
Not bad, not too bad at all.
Hmmm no, even 'not bad' would be an understatement.
An understatement of an understatement.

Anyways today, i tried studying.
Yes, tried.
I italics-ed tried.
Because in actual fact, i didn't study that much.
Well, at least i tried.
Hmm.. but too bad in today's society, trying sometimes isn't enough.
Its the results that count, which to me is so sad.
Whatever happened to doing things for the experience eh?
Gone down the drain thats what.
In this fast paced world we live in now, its give me the results or you're OUT and left behind!
Sigh.
Oh well,
Who cares, i'll still keep trying and hopefully, i'll get the results.
Hopefully.

Oh YES, and by the way, i like Ben Sherman now.
Yes its a guy a real person, but NO he isn't one of my infatuations.
Its a brand.
A clothes brand.
In a way, you could say i 'fell in love' with it.
Its really.... something i would like.
I like the way their designs are.. so retro yet modern.
So Ben Sherman, i guess.
Well, than there you have it, I like Ben Sherman.

Don't know why?
Allow me to convince you.





( The English Mustard Collection)






(The Deep Purple Collection)

Ohhh... Yeah, i know...
Wow. Right?
Yes of course.

Hmm well, if you are a guy you may be thinking,
"Ah gees, yeah it'll look great on my girlfriend or wife or sister but not me.."
Well than you are correct.
But don't worry, they have a MENS section too.
Check this out.













Yup yup yup, i know.
Whoa.
Haha yes i think Ben Sherman really has a neck for designing.
You can check out more about it here. (uh, click on the here.)

Sometimes i wish i had this little plastic card and...
Well lemme tell you the only action i will be doing with it would be a
"swipe and swish" here, there and EVERYWHERE.
Literally.
Don't put a credit card in my hand.
Maybe theres some wisdom in parents not giving their teens credit cards after all.

Oh well....
Oh yes and have i told you that i want to learn the violin?
Like, seriously i do.
I think its such a classy instrument.
Its really cool.
And you know, i wonder what i would say if someone asks this question just before i die.
"Was there ever anything you wanted to do in this life but weren't able to?"
All i know is that i really wish my answer would be nothing but, No.
Well, wouldn't you? ;)
