AMAZING THAILAND - Bangkok

See you guys in a bit and posting up all the splendors soon.

Lexean

Lexean- It's a pretty new magazine on the market, marking its tenth issue.

A first-time reader of the magazine and I'm actually fascinated by its content. Every issue features different themes and articles are actually based on the theme on different topics. The articles are really intelligent and rather than just being informative, the writers actually stamp down on their stand, which is quite a rarity. Topics covered are really diverse. Besides strong articles, much use of provocative graphics are actually used instead of photographs, which is quite unique. The graphics are really creative and insightful in line with the articles. It packs a load of articles before moving on to the men's lifestyle, fashion spreads and lifestyle reviews. There's a balance between an entertainment magazine and one that's based on current affairs. I would say it is a must have for the new age, modern guy that want to fulfill his intelligence and lifestyle.

Applaud to such a great magazine, definitely a class of its own. You can check out its web www.lexean.com. Along with Lexean, the publishing house carries along other titles such as Playeur, Smitten, Beauty Box.

Playeur's another sight pleasure for the guys, it carries a "unsuitable for the young" tag. Beautiful girls, entertainment and provocative shoots with tinge of artistic feel. Sight pleasure ratings definitely a notch above FHM and Maxim.

Sex And The City

The movie felt like a closure to the whole series of Sex and the City, everyone of the character manage to fulfill their own life in the end. Carrie was finally with Mr B, Miranda got herself the nice family with Steve, Charlotte still living in her happily-ever-after days and lastly, Samantha went back to her free and sex-driven days. Besides the four characters, it would all be about the fashion for the ladies out there. But truthfully, not all are a success, there were few that were really flops. I must say most girls would definitely be envy with the Vivienne Westwood wedding gown. The movie does capture the essence of the New York life - fine dining, partying, designers' products and the whole lifestyle. I must say the Central Library really looks impressive, I definitely wouldn't mind holding a wedding there. One lesson for the guys, never run away from a wedding, realizing the mistake and go running back to the church, you would just be courting your own death. Eventually, do the ladies really go to the Big Apple to seek for love in real? I think that would be one interesting debate, just like the soundtrack by Fergie for the movie, shopping for labels or love.

Fergie - Labels or Love

Insanely Inhumanity

I do not know how true this video is but here's how it goes,

A couple brought their son along to cross the Mexican border for a shopping spree. Their son ran off and disappeared. The mother reported to the police and the police told the mother to come back 45 minutes later. 45 minutes later, the mother saw a man carrying his son,she ran over. Upon realising that the woman was the mother of the boy, the man dropped the boy and ran off.
The police arrested the man but it was too late. The boy was already dead. In less than 45 minutes, he was killed with his insides taken off and filled with cocaine for trafficking purpose. The man intended to carry the boy over the border as if he was sleeping.

It's really sad that humans stoop so low for the sake of drugs, its really quite frightening, what else are we really capable of.

I Lost My Love In Baghdad

This book is an insight into the Iraq war, you can visualize how the whole situation is like. You'll feel like its a movie but it is really happening with all the security and uncertainties issue. The danger there is very real. I would not comment if it is right or wrong about the Iraq war however it really makes you put yourself in the shoes of those over there, their emotions and what they really have to go through everyday. After all, it is not about whether it is a war against Iraq or Afghanistan, it is the whole ideology of a war and what does it really do to people. After all, is it really worth it for any cause to start a war and all the sacrifices made, do we really realize that nobody's a winner.

It is a true account of a modern war and love story. It makes you ponder does love in the modern times comes too easy? It is hard to find one that has gone through trials and tribulations, probably what our grandparents would have gone through. Here we have one that really makes your heart crunch and it is one in the modern times.

A sacrifice that was made for the better of others, a dream crushed, I'm sorry for the loss of Andi Parhamovich and I hope the world do gain a lesson from it.
