Make your own Hermès Kelly!

A new campaign by Hermès – Je le veux, je l’aurai ! (I want it, I’ll have it !)

Eight Kelly designs have been put up with the simple instructions of:

Téléchargez, imprimez, coloriez, coupez, pliez, collez… (Download, print, colour, cut, fold, glue…)

So do just that! Just click on the Kelly that you desire – to access to the linked PDF file containing the image and how to cut, fold and glue!

AND TADA!! Your very own Kelly :)

This new on eBay!

You can watch her draw her art over at http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/13496853

When you bid on Imogen Heap’s personalized drawing – you get to keep the drawing, as well as all proceeds will go to help Japan and New Zealand via an organization called Architecture For Humanity.

PLUS you get a ticket to go to her house (near London) for the release party of LifeLine, in which is a new audience inspired song – this Monday 28th March, 2011

The progress of LifeLine can be found at http://heapsong1.imogenheap.com/

And the progress is definitely most phenomenal, and I believe she is the first artist ever to have done such an absolutely brilliant project.

If you would like to donate directly to Architecture For Humanity,

Alternatively, if you would like to donate directly to the Red Cross Society,

As part of the Vogue Influencer Network, Vogue has given me a exclusive code for the exclusive Lady Gaga cover app, to do whatever I need with it. :)

If you have an iPad, and you love Vogue, and you love Lady Gaga – this is for you.

And so, here it is!

Out of the two fresh stories out of Vogue – choose your pick! Remember to click on the individual pictures!

The first person with an answer to which is his/her favourite story wins – and you can either email or comment away!

 

A) John Galliano’s in A Moment of Contemplation.

 

OR

 

B) CEO of Hermès, Patrick Thomas in No Love Lost

 

Wanna work for Marc Jacobs?

As a twitterer.

Yes, to replace his CEO, Robert Duffy, who has been doing it right since forever.

According to @MarcJacobsIntl, Marc Jacobs is looking to hire “someone to come on and take a job heading our twitter acct and social media.”

With a following of over 91k; only the wittiest tweets get selected, so no need for all those resume trash.

“Be clever. Smart. Understand our DNA. Say it in one tweet! That is your interview!”

And feel the lurve:

“It doesn’t matter where you’re from. As long as your tweets are good. Were an international company and open to anyone who proves themselves”

 

Go for it if you think you can handle the heat.

W Hotels – The Store


Damn it, damn it. Damn it.

This has to be one of the best promotions W Store have offered.

And I have no idea what to buy. I don’t need anything, except the free W waffle robe that’s retailing at $125.

Damn it.

Lasts till the 15th of this month.

Finally, my first draft of dissertation has been approved.

So now, I’ve got the time to write more :D DD

 

I’ve been reading reviews on the book called the ‘The $1,000 Genome: The Revolution in DNA Sequencing and the New Era of Personalized Medicine’

Now that the costs related to getting a full genome sequence have fallen drastically to just US$1000 reach the masses from the original US$1,000,000,000 in year 2000.

It really seems like the book to read now, to know more about ourselves as well as to sequence our DNA, and check our genome for potential illnesses that could come our way in the future.

Can’t wait to get my hands on them!

 

I’m not gonna lie. I’m surprised to see it on auction, and with just 1 day and 9 hours left, it’s only at a mere £520.00 on eBay.

It’s all in the good name of the Christmas spirit.

By choosing to be part of the auction, you are supporting the Quintessential Foundation.

Apple Macbook Air (Late 2010)

Ok so I got the 13″ Macbook Air! I’m pretty sure there are tons of unboxing videos and pics on the net, as well as thickness comparison pics.

However, I would like to share my experience with Apple.

Just look at the thickness – this is comparing to the 12″ Hewlett Packard TX1200 series.

The Macbook Air wins in being 1″ larger in screen real estate – but it’s my fault for buying the TX1200.

The Macbook Air also wins in having flash drives as compared to the TX1200 which uses hard disk drives.

The TX1200 fan ROARS – and you know what happens when I use it in the school library. Dang.

The TX1200 touch screen tablet is also not sensitive – I wonder why they even put it on the market.

The Macbook Air is so quiet and cool to the touch, I have not heard the fan (is there even any?) in the two weeks i’ve been using it.

But it could be due to the 4gb memory upgrade I added – as compared to the poor thing TX1200 2gb only.

Disclaimer: This is so not a matter of being an Apple fanboy. It’s just comparing of apples and oranges.

Okay, so actually there’s this Coach portfolio which I used for the TX1200 – this is how it looks when it’s empty.

This is how it looks when the Macbook Air 13″ is inside.

This is how it looks when the TX1200 12″ is inside.

Bottom line: I’m actually more happy with spending S$2k than spending S$1.5.

A piece of further happiness was when my Apple shipment delivery date was incorrectly conveyed to me, the customer service officer immediately offered a S$65 voucher to off-set my anguish.

You would never have seen that with HP. My HP aftersales repair support was also terrible; with tech support from India. I could have sworn I nearly killed myself.

___________

I’m waiting for my Apple Magic Mouse which cost me just S$28 to arrive! woohoo! Much thanks to the awesome Apple service.

 

 

It’s Prepared for Shipment!

oh.mi.god.

finally a status change.
