something from TOMS arrived in a brown paper package tied up with strings today. and the fact that whenever they sell a pair, another pair would be given to a child in need somewhere. ain't that neat?!

HUGO

everyone who reads this blog has to go see HUGO, the most wcgut movie of the year. it is originated from this magical book entitled THE INVENTION OF HUGO CABRET by brian selznick - a story about hugo, who's an orphan, a clock keeper, a thief and a dreamer that just does not give up. he lives in the walls of a paris train station. the story involves a treasured notebook, a stolen key in the shape of a heart, a beautiful striped sweater that hugo wears, and a mechanical man. but the main message is about how this world is a big fat machine, that comes with no extra part, cos each of us is a part in this machine that cannot be replaced, hence we all come in here with a unique purpose; and we need to not give up on that. the movie also reminds us how movie magic is nothing but the purest form of turning imaginations and dreams into inspirations, something that i always strive to do. so like what georges méliès says in the story,"all you mermaids, travelers, adventurers, and magicians ... come dream with me"

once upon a time ...

herringbone norfolk 2
... a tiny chinaman went to the brooklyn flea in a small town called williamsburg. a nice middle aged lady with long curly thick gray hair was like, "why don't you try that brown herringbone jacket at the end of the rack and see. all the boys have been trying that on but none is small enough to fit into it." so chinaman put it on and then he gasped. the blazer with olive lining with horses on it fit like a glove. both the lady and he were thrilled to the bones. the lady even asked her friends in the market to gather around to witness this moment saying "we have a candidate! we have a candidate!" the chinaman looked at his reflection on the rusty chippy old mirror and said, "i'm cinderella." the norfolk jacket only costed him 40 bucks
