Hermes.. wonderful Hermes..

Recently I developed an interest in Hermes. Though I am not a very big fan of Kelly or Birkin bag YET, but it can certainly grows on you :P Very pricey though. Cost of fortune. Those who can afford these bags are certainly rich. Even the wallets are real pricey. I saw this Hermes Bearn Soft Leather wallet... so niceeeeee... But I think retail price is going at USD1,700 (i think). Not to sure.
And the cute orange box!! Absolute darlings.... Chanel purse are among some of the wallets I am looking for..

罗志祥-我不会唱歌 / luo zhi xiang - wo bu hui chang ge

I managed to catch the making of this MV. The tears he shed were real. Sad.. I wonder what went tru his mind at that time. Or probably, just another good actor! :)

公主小妹 / Romantic Princess

I've just recently finished watching the highly anticipated Taiwan Drama, Romantic Princess / 公主小妹 (Gong Zhu Xiao Mei) on DVD, starring Wu Chun & Angela Chang. Not bad. I got to say Wu Chun's acting skill has improved tremendously. A little more flexible with on emotional bit. He has always play a serious face looking character in most of his dramas, but with Romantic Princess, I do see the funnier side of Wu Chun, flexing his muscle and acting sexually aroused, both in a very comical manner. Kudos to him! Of course, credits to Angela too. I have never seen her work, and all this while, I had this perception of her being a poor actress. She amazed me with her acting in this drama. Wonderful. I particularly love the waltz bit. Very smooth and romantic. Nice!

Anyway, there are some nice tracks on this drama. Here's Angela Chang 不想懂得 (Bu Xiang Dong De)

Edison Chen Sex Scandal

In all fairness (from my perspective), I don't see why and how Edison Chen was pin down for this sex scandal. I mean, cmon..

1) these photos were private and was not intended for anyone else to see.
2) the ladies involved willing posed for the camera. It wasn't anything like they were being forced to do it.
3) it was private! It's not Edison distributed it on his own. These images/videos were "STOLEN"

I am NOT a fan of Edison by the way. I just feel it's unfair for him alone to bear this blame. and c'mon, Gillian is such a hypocrite too. All this squeaky clean image thingy and being against pre-marital sex and what not. Oh please! Look, these ladies willing posed for the pics.

Edison and the ladies were the victims. End. Period. They love each other then ( i think) and so they had sex. Big Deal.

Sorry if I have offended anyone out there, but this is personally my view towards this whole issue.

楊宗緯 Aska Yang Zhong Wei - 洋蔥 yang cong (Pinyin)

I absolutely LOVE this song! Check out 楊宗緯 Aska Yang Zhong Wei latest track 洋蔥 (Yang Cong) meaning Onion, from his first debut album DOVE. There are a number of nice tracks in it. I really like this and the other one 让 Rang (meaning.. give way) . An absolute MUST HAVE/MUST BUY original album alright!

If you understand mandarin, this song is really sad. No other better artist to deliver this song than Aska. His voice can truly carry out this song and bring this song to life. Despite my limited comprehension of Mandarin, I was so moved by his voice and as I searched further to really understand this song, it's really REALLY sad. Good song, Good voice, Fantastis Aska!

Of course, credits to Ashin of Mayday who compose and wrote this song & lyric. Kudos to him! A very talented singer, writer, composer. I read somewhere that he's writing a song for Jam Xiao Jing Teng. Can't wait for cutie Jam to released him album.
