Polaroid Mirror

Monday, March 10th, 2008

You know, this is actually a pretty solid idea for a mirror. According to the Design Museum Shop, there are only 4 left.
If you fancy something a bit smaller and more portable, you might want to look into the Polaroid pocket mirror (shown below).

The Polaroid pocket mirror is somewhat bendable and made of a single [...]

Tiki table

Friday, October 12th, 2007

After going to Hawaii in 2004, I’ve come to appreciate and love all things that look like tikis. I even bought (or rather, kept) a tiki mug from that trip.
With that said, I’d really love to have this Grand Tiki Table sitting in my room. Weighing in at 23 pounds, this Polynesian-style tiki table is [...]

Basho The Sumo Wrestler Table

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

How about that for an interesting table conversation!
Sky Mall, the [sometimes otherworldly] in-flight magazine that you can order stuff from using an airplane’s telephone, is selling this neat sumo wrestler coffee table for $225. [via]
Here’s the description from Sky Mall:
Add a touch of the Far East with “Basho” (Japanese for “tournament”), a traditional Sumo practitioner [...]

IKEA VIPPIG seesaw

Monday, September 10th, 2007

I know it’s not technically “furniture” but I don’t really care because IKEA’s VIPPIG children’s seesaw is just about the coolest looking seesaw I’ve ever seen.
Price: $49.99 USD.
When did the IKEA website start looking so nice? I don’t remember it being quite as fun to browse through as it was just now…

Your discount super duper center middle how are you?

I always figured there was a reason why along with external email access, RMIT was also blocking access to Meebo. It’s because Meebo is the fastest growing chat client! Man, the RMIT network really sucks. Actually, in general, Australian access to internet just sucks. Hahahaha…only one year…only one year…
Whee! Flickr has updated their slideshow settings.

Friday, June 15th, 2007

GOOD NEWS! I finally got some urgent passport work done the other night at like 12:30AM. Sorry Corey, Flo, and Mel for being a total bore and not playing for a bit. Dang, I am sooo glad this is over and done with (almost). Now, only a few more things to get taken care of [...]

Good bye to Esther! As of today, you are my virtual friend, and virtual friend ONLY. See you in ONE year! Try to keep sane among the other insane juniors, ok?

Dancing Elmo. Almost as good as Dancing Dora.

There’s also a dancing Scooby Doo. How fabulous!
Whoa…what?! DPReview got snatched up by Amazon.com!

I should make as [...]

It is absolutely magnificent outside

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

IF YOU HAVEN’T GONE OUTSIDE TODAY (AND YOU LIVE IN NYC) THEN STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING RIGHT NOW AND GO OUTSIDE. IT IS SUPER NICE OUT. BREEZY, WARM, AND SUNNY! I JUST CAME BACK FROM BIKING UP AND DOWN THE WEST SIDE. I’M TIRED, BUT I FEEL SUPER GREAT BECAUSE IT’S FINALLY WARM AND SUNNY! [...]
