Ive been doin online shoppin for a while now, in all honesty its the best way to shop ever and when u get the hang of it, trust me u dun stop....
All u need is a debit card, enough cash in that account and u can jus shop away.....
Yes, exchange rates are a mutha, especially when u start dealin with US dollars and Euros, and shippin costs could dampen your spirits too....
So why is it worth it?
The most important thing in clothes or fashion sense in any form, is to go against the grain, to be stylish yes, but most importantly, to be different....
Its not even the clothes u wear at times, sometimes its how u wear.....
But ultimately, and this is a personal opinion...
I love wearing stuff, that ppl wil ask u abt and when they wanna get it....
*poof*
They can get shit..... keyword here ppl is...
Exclusivity......
Thats a very impt criteria in online shoppin for me anytime.....
I will pay the price to be different.....
Here are reasons why im goin online to shop today...
im dying for this tee here....
i gotta get these obey jeans here...
and then get these shoes here
and if do feel the need to bring the word exclusivity to whole diff level, i'll get something from here....
Im not confirming that Jay-Z will not be comin to our oh so ever sunny shores, but unlike yesterday i cant say that i can confirm he's comin either....
What i'll do now, is lower any expectation i actually have of this concert, really....
Well, at least i got Russell Peters....
On to other things.....
Lupe Fiasco's got 2 vids out. Im lovin Daydream, i think everyone can relate to it and we should be hearing I Gotcha in clubs soon....
He needs blow up cos unlike most fodder gangsta rappers....
This dude actually deserves it....
Daydream feat Jill Scott
I Gotcha
And im dyin for both the red shirt and the blue/pink sweatsuit......
One of the biggest acts in hiphop, the grand daddy of the current hiphop world is making his way to our sunny shores. Yes ppl, the big lipped, camel looking, albeit incredibly talented Jay-Z is coming here on the 23rd Oct this year....
Ive heard no press releases nor a proper confirmation from the sg side of things, but i am quite sure they are trying to switch dates, as us fellow muslims who i feel honestly is the bulk of jay-z fans here, should knoe, 23rd Oct is the eve of Hari Raya....
Im goin although i knoe i will get hell for it.....
Its fckin Jay-Z man.........
I ended off a weird week with a simple weekend and i loved it... after 5 days of drama, misunderstandings, rollercoaster love stories and a whole lot more. The party at ButterFactory rocked, i reconciled with everyone i so called had beef with although there is prolly only one loose end to settle, but thats a whole different story, anyways.... After that crazy friday, i chilled at home, spent quality time with my sisters and watched some classic Dvds...
The amount sleep i had in that weekend couldve made up for the lack of it in the past few weeks....
Its a gd sign though...
I can actually finally sleep in peace.....
Im leavin u with a little taste of what we could be in for on the 23rd of October
I guess you wonder where I've been I searched to find a love within I came back to let you know Got a thing for you and I can't let go
My friends wonder what is wrong with me Well I'm in a daze from your love, you see I came back to let you know Got a thing for you and I can't let go
Some people go around the world for love But they may never find what they dream of What you won't do, do for love You've tried everything but you don't give up In my world only you makes me do For love what I would not do
But then I only want the best it's true They can't believe the things I do for you What you won't do, do for love You've tried everything but you don't give up In my world, only you makes me do For love what I would not do Makes me do for love what I would not do
It's not far down to paradise At least it's not for me And if the wind is right you can sail away And find tranquility The canvas can do miracles Just you wait and see Believe me
It's not far to never never land No reason to pretend And if the wind is right you can find the joy Of innocence again The canvas can do miracles Just you wait and see Believe me
Sailing Takes me away To where I've always heard it could be Just a dream and the wind to carry me And soon I will be free
Fantasy It gets the best of me When I'm sailing All caught up in the reverie Every word is a symphony Won't you believe me
It's not far back to sanity At least it's not for me And when the wind is right you can sail away And find serenity The canvas can do miracles Just you wait and see Believe me
Theres such a hypnotic vibe to this song, its reflective, brings u to a certain zone, i cant really put my finger on this song, but theres somethin abt it......
I first heard it on N'Sync's 1st album, this was the last song incidentally, at this point of time, im right here where the song says i am and i dun really wanna go back reality right now, and somehow not ever...
Everythin is somehow goin wrong for me lately, in every aspect, in almost every department.....
I dun really have to type the lyrics out for this song do i.....
My point here is simple, and ive known this for a long time, this song is so much better when its done live........... Donell Jones - Where I Wanna Be
But when you love someone You just dont treat them bad Oh, how I feel so sad Now that I wanna leave Shes crying her heart to me How could you let this be? I just need time to see Where I wanna be Where I wanna be...
Sweet little dee-do-dee-dee... I dont mean to hurt you, baby, oh, no, no...
Never did I imagine That you would play a major part In a decision thats so hard Do I leave, do I stay, do I go? I think about my life and what matters to me the most Girl, the love that we share is real But in time your heart will heal Im not saying Im gone But I have to find what life is like Without you
So there it is, im sorry but well, i jus need time to see where i wanna be...........
I got some issues i must admit that i was wrong I got some issues Didnt knoe what i had to leave was gone, And i dont knoe if i deserve for u to come back home, Cos i got some issues, I got some issues, Dun hold it against me....
Theres no real explanation, it could be reflection, it could be realisation, it could be the act of lookin back, call it what u want, but sometimes i lie to myself way too much.....
I psyche myself out from thinkin that everythin's not ok, i say the opposite....
Well heres the truth....
My life does actually suck and it sucks hard people....
Thats how im feelin abt it tonite at least....
So ure asking why?
Isnt it already that clear?
Crystal?
Lets jus say this.....
Ive never needed to talk to anyone, but on that one nite when i actually do need to...
U have to be on a flight, u arent answering your phone, ure prolly asleep, and the rest prolly dun give 2 shits....
Go and tell a nigga no, wit a ass so fat Hey why you wanna go and do that love huh Hey-Hey why you wanna go and do that, do that Hey-Hey why you wanna go and do that-that-that In a relationship been faithful to a nigga so whack Hey why you wanna go and do that love huh Hey-Hey why you wanna go and do that, do that Hey-Hey why you wanna go and do that-that-that..aye-aye
Can't help but notice how you glowing, I can see in yo face Now I just wonder if he know he close to being replaced Swear I treat you like a queen you put me in his place So you can give back his ring and the key to his place Tell the nigga one thing that you need yo space Selling niggaz is one thing you dont need to chase I wanna kiss you everywhere between yo knees and waist Hear the sounds that you makin, get yo knees to shake Holla at me in the A, you feel you need to escape I gotta mansion and a gate, you wit me you safe A Benz, a Phantom and a truck wit 23's the case 600 G's in the safe, how much cheese it take? This a chance you need to take, ain't no need to wait Say the word we can leave today, this song's special And it feel like faith, make a mistake How the same thing making you sad making you stay
They say Yasz is getting soft, they say the music he's hearing is well even...
Softer.....
If listening to songs that has more depth than the usual guntalk, slept with your bitch cadences or even the im so much more bling than u nonsense, or listening to songs that i can relate to and rather than listening to stuff i can never live out, stuff i cant fathom to even dream and...
If the above 2 statements is well, a crime...
Im guilty as charged.....
In honesty, i think its a sign of maturity though, although i am still loyal though to the music genre that made me, but i guess im looking for more deeper alternatives....
Im loving the above remix though, Trey Songz is a great addition, adds depth to the song with the singing....
And T.I speaks truth right there, and ive been here though, came out losing......
Heard about my past Things I used to do The games I used to play The girls that didn't last I know what's on your mind You think I'm doing wrong Can I say what is real You are the only one When I'm not around Do you think of me Or what the jealous ones Are claiming me to be You should know by now That it's gonna take A lot of trust from you For us to make it through
You should know baby you're my angel Nothing's gonna make you fall from heaven Girl I just want to love you Love you
Don't listen to what people say They don't know about you and me Put it out your mind cause it's jealousy They don't know about this here Don't listen to what people say They don't know about you and me Put it out your mind cause it's jealousy They don't know about this here
I never knew they had video for this, jus like i never knew u had that big of a heart to share, and in all honesty, im starting to see things that i prolly shouldnt....
I shall leave that as what it usually is, unspoken truth....
And we'll jus the ride the wave to wherever it leads us...
A chair is still a chair, even when there's no one sittin' there But a chair is not a house and a house is not a home When there's no one there to hold you tight And no one there you can kiss goodnight
A room is a still a room, even when there's nothin' there but gloom But a room is not a house and a house is not a home When the two of us are far apart And one of us has a broken heart
Now and then I call your name And suddenly your face appears But it's just a crazy game When it ends, it ends in tears
Pretty little darling, have a heart, don't let one mistake keep us apart I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home When I climb the stairs and turn the key Oh, please be there, sayin' that you're still in love with me, yeah...
I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home When I climb the stairs and turn the key Oh, please be there, still in love I said still in love Still in love with you...yeah...
If there was one, "forgive me and i want u back" love song that anyone should use, this should be on top of anyones lists.....
I hope i'll never have a chance to use it though... hehe
Hooked with up with Superstar, The Nurse and Hot Doc to attend a party of sorts....
Showed up at 11pm to an almost orgy-like surrounding, which i didnt actually mind of course(duh!), but Superstar, being who he is, cant actually be spotted in such areas....
We understood....
So we dodged the dodgy at that venue before to create the ultimate "Entourage" party at MOS. Ive not wilded out the way i did last nite for way too long....
We had 15 plus people, enough drinks and somewhat good enough music....
Sometimes making up, is easier than breaking up... We believe if we jus, fake it enough.... We can, trick ourselves into believing that, we're still in love..... In our hearts we knoe that, its inevitable... Though its hard to let u go, i must...
Sometimes memories jus aint enough.... Sometimes u outgrow the ones u love.... Sometimes its none of the above... Its jus the fact, that people change... No ones to blame, there aint nuthing.. That stays the same.....
So we sit around and cry... Cos neither one of us wants to be first to say goodbye.....
should we just be friends, should we draw a line, should we sieze the times, take this thing further, or should we just pretend, that love ain't closing in, that we don't reconize, that you dont realize, see we're drawn to (drawn to) on another, friends or lovers, its time we choose, so fuck what your girls say, what my boys say, dont even matter, all that matters now
now that we've come this far i need to know whats going to be your position baby listen tell me where i need to stand in your life
id never thought id be reliving this song once again......
but i am.....
Toni Braxton - Rock Me Roll Me
Have u ever been in love before with a beautiful woman Does she have insecurities Have u ever been in love before with a needy woman Is she, too controlling
Rock me (She only wants you to) Roll me (She only needs you to) Spend a little more time Spend a little more time
Rock me (She only wants you to) Roll me (She only needs you to) Spend a little more time Spend a little more time with me
I had such a great day yesterday, i made money, loads of it, i met 2 new chicks, i saw a kick ass movie, i found out that the physical regime has been workin cos ive lost weight and man even Noodle killed it last night at Idol.....
I was refreshed, i walked like Moses when he split the sea, i felt alive.....
I had such a great day...
Today is different, im sleepy, im tired, i had an interestin breakfast which kinda made me feel like a sec sch kid all over again(im sorry! i jus had to! hehe!), i failed an exam i shouldve passed, ive realised im behind schedule on certain things, appts got cancelled and postponed...
Nuthin is goin on for me today.....
A real far cry from walking like Moses, im walking ....
Aaarrgghhh!
Let me digress.....
I watched "Click" and i was pleasantly surprised, its not the usual run of the mill, adam sandler flick, it has its usual shenanigans, dog humpin toy duck, loads of boobies and tonnes of sexual references. Surprisingly, it has depth though, something u could read between the lines. I must admit that the beautiful Kate Beckingsale will distract you, but the life lessons within the seemingly dense movie, hits a chord....
A big one by the way...
I met The Guru 2 days back and we spent a good 6 hrs discussing about life, where we are in it and how we see ourselves within the next few years. Its funny how "Click" discusses the act of speeding thru life to get the material goals and not bein able to enjoy the moments that count...
In a whole, i guess life is not abt the years, the months or the days that pass...
