9100 mL of frozen goodness


summer... where did you go? it seems like only yesterday i was sipping on a freaking huge slurpee and laying by the pool

date 12/3 - 19/3
outlet:
seven eleven stores Australia wide
size: medium (one size fits all my arse!)
colour:
supremacist white

why:
i love to drink slurpee's, drink enough slurpee's and get a free shirt, what a country

its a well known fact. the more sunglasses a man has
the cooler he is and this tee my friends has more cool than you are ever likely to need

in order to get your free slurpee tee you must purchase 5 special edition massive summer slurpee's, log onto the website and use all 5 codes to get your tee. at 1.3L of slurpee each that is a minimum of 6.5L of slurpee, which doesnt count the 2 codes that had instant win prizes on them that i (too quickly) traded for a sweet slurpee straw. and at $3.75 a pop this tee was not as free as it may have seemed.

it cost me
$26.25
9100mL of frozen goodness
and a whole lot of awesome

next summer can't come soon enough

she's not a stripper and this is not las vegas


so last week was my birthday, and this is what i got another sweet tee but this time its all about the wedding... not my wedding of course, I'm far too young to be married...
because she's not a stripper and this is not las vegas

date 5/3 - 12/3
bought: value city preston
brand: sherwin and candice???
size:
medium
colour:
white, as the driven snow
why:
credit for this tee, i am afraid, cannot go to me but to J&K as they affectionately signed my birthday card

research was conducted... wikipedia, google and finally youtube we searched in order to gain context of this early december 08 piece.

and this is what we found...

to the untrained eye this could be a joke youtube clip but actually it's a promo clip for a melbourne based wedding videography company

sherwin and candice... it looks like you had a lovely wedding and even had tee's made to commemorate your love, i can only assume these were circulated to the exclusive VIP guests, but somehow probably by some huge mistake this tee had found its way into an opportunity shop.

and now it is mine.

to have and to hold

to love and to cherish

till death do us part

Bring it on...

bring it on... in banquet style and not in the cheerleading kind of way

date 26/2/10 - 5/3/10
outlet:
ebay
size: small
brand: marshall & franklin
colour: mmmatte grey/i dislike grey's anatonmy
why: something about a large M with horns and a tail
spotted:
trying to catch flies with pat morita and daniel san at binh minh on victoria st


there is almost nothing on this earth like owning a grey tee, the most comfortable tee's i have owned are all grey, they can be washed a thousand times and only become more comfortable, they're like that grey sweatpant material that's all soft and warm, even dunlop volleys are now available in the most comfortable colour known to man

being asian is:
using chopstick to eat my food
sharing my pearls of wisdom
pretending to know kung fu
pretending to grow facial hair
having people rub my belly for good luck
being naturally gifted with mathematics
a terrible driver
the ability to leap tall fences with minimal effort when your mates prefer to use the gate

i am all... and none of these things

just gotta keep cashing cheques, buying tee's
in a bold and audacious kind of way
