“Focus on the journey, not the destination"

Call this the Porsche of external hard disk drives. The LaCie Hard Disk, Design by Neil Poulton. Sleek, Simple and elegant.... the way I like things to be.

Neil Poulton (1963) is a Scottish-born designer, based in Paris, France. He specializes in the design of simple, mass-produced objects and has won numerous international design awards.

I'm glad to be able to own this beguiling piece of technological art. The primary purpose of buying it is to use it as a target disk to clone my seagate free agent pro because that external hard disk needs to be reformatted. Furthermore, the LaCie Hard Disk will also serve as my Time Machine(backup) in future (just bought my Canon EOS 1000D) .

This hard disk drive has USB 2.0, eSATA and FireWire 400(main reason why I chose this model) and offers universal connectivity with your PC, Mac or Linux-based computer.

More awesome stuff to come... trammeledvalour's back to life..

The end that marks the beginning

Many months ago, I had this great desire to start a blog. I always felt that I'm a very fortunate or some may say blessed individual. My parents are not affluent people but they manage to put both of their sons in the most advance countries in the university of their choice. They believed in education and above all they believed in us. I always wanted to document my experience here to share them with my close friends so that they may share with the joy and somehow still have that feeling of "closeness" and of "knowing me" but i guess... I overestimated my capabilities... I can't do it. If i start it, I want it to be the best, the most interesting blog with nice pictures, videos and etc... but i can't... I hate the phrase "I don't have the time for it" so i'm not going to use it. I'd rather say, my ability to manage my time and life is still inadequate and make myself look bad than to use that phrase because that is the truth. So, this is the end of a blog that never started. It feels stupid to have the first real posting saying that you aren't going to blog anymore. So, take care my friends.. We'll meet again someday... I hope that by then you'd see a better me than the last impression I left.

Cheers mate, Chill dude
