3BL +1BE+1BR+1WH+2YE :: The Whole World

It's been all about Russell Peters lately, and he's got me thinking about "colors". Black, Brown, White, Yellow, Beige. That right there represents the primary colors of the world already. It means the whole world. Let me know if I'm missing a color from the palette, red doesn't count.

Anyways I was skipping down the street after work as usual, passing by the usual basketball court outdoors with yellow sticks running around with an orange ball, as usual, supposedly, but something was unusual this time. The canvas was painted rather colorfully with various colors....so I took count.


(Click to count too)

Brown - Check
Beige - Check
White - Check
Black - Check.Check.Check
Yellow - Check.Check...waitWTF

Hong Kong is a international city and colors mix around pretty often, hell almost everyday everywhere, but it was pretty fresh for me to see them together in a palet...basketball court. Thats global competition right there, in a small half-court canvas and I haven't seen anything like that since back in the days in Okinawa. What stunned me more was the 2 yellows were only KIDS, playing buffcut black and beiges in their 20's~30's. They made a shot too. Ok they're just playing around but c'mon you don't see shit like that on a normal day. Props to the kids with enough balls guts to play those guys.

Anyways it was a really weird scene so I snapped a photo. Thinking about it now, if one of them were wanted or something I woulda been killed.

MIA :: FYI

いや~~~

忙しい!!

殺人的忙しさ!なんだこれ!なので一ヶ月あいちゃいました。すんません。

まあ。どうしてかと言うと今月2週間ぶっ続けに展示会があったり、展示会の後は接客したクライアントの数々とのフォローアップ、2週間展示会で突っ立ってたので当然十数個のプロジェクトは宙ぶらりで今死に物狂いでカムバック。

後が大変だけど展示会は実はそんなに悪くない。デザイナーなのになぜ接客せねばならんのかちょっと疑問もあったりしたが・・・↓の展示会はKENFAIRのMEGASHOW。パート1とパート2あるが今回は1のみ。でもブース二つ(何故に??)。4日間ぶっ通しで接客だがこれがまたおもしろい。世界各国の美女みなさんが集まるからだ。


インチキ臭いインド人や、ずる賢いイタリア人、くっさいインド人に超美人なフランス美女。こんな街一つに世界各国の人種が集まる。これって結構すごい事だと気づいた。世界各国の美女人々と話していると様々な国の性格がみるみる把握できる。文化が思考や行動にどう影響していて、何故こんなに異なるのか、結構間近で見れておもしろかった。インド人なのにUSAのタッグぶら下げていたいた人もいたが・・・・


今回のフェアはデルモもかなりいて中々の景色だったが・・・デスクで山積みにされてるプロジェクトをどうするか検討中。

ギア落としたんでブログのペースは保てるから、今後もよろしくお願い致します。

Collection :: Abduction

When you work in this field, you get all sorts of sweet deals if you have the right resources. I happen to work in the Industrial Design field and through a few cobs the resource happens to have some hookups with nice deals for watches……..
Nah I have my cap on sideways. To put things straight, just got them through a friend. lol


Alessi :: Kaj :: Designed by Karim Rashid (Abducted - 50%)


Appetime :: Pips (Abducted - 100%)


Nike Timing (Abducted - 75%)

Been waiting for these for a month since I ordered them. It was such a good deal I couldn’t resist buying 10, which sums up to the equivalent price of buying 1 digital watch only. NICE.

Enjoyed the collection for about a day maybe.

Then more than half has been abducted, as usual. or2…

National Day of the P-R-C :: and my balcony

"October 1, 2009 National Day of the PRC = Holiday Hell yea."

That's what scrolled by my mind before the 1st of Octo, high and all until I found out we were being ripped off, again.

I was at a factory the other day in mainland feeling the tension rise, a strange spark of excitement and a shitload (shit.load) of traffic jam. It was ex-National Day and all em people of the the Republic of China were rushing home.

Preparing for their holiday, which I later found out they had 1 damn week.

Us, em people of the Hong Kong Boondock's only have 1 day! WTF? I know we kiss a lot of western ass but c'mon we're still YELLOW, have eyes with the potential of being blindfolded with a dental floss and we speak CHING CHANG. What's with this workaholic shit. It's all boondock's here and we need to crop more but c'mon give us a break right.

Anyways, feeling blue and all I was surfing the web for anything that'll cure this jealousy thing with some laughs, until I heard some noise outside. Ignored it the first few times but it just kept going so I put my foot down and took a peak out the balcony and whatdyaknow. Cash being lit and burned to ashes in the air.



For 25minutes.

Gotta say it was pretty good though. That's a lot of fucking money evaporating but it does put up a good view, so I took some pictures.

Back to work again.
