The Man Behind the Mustache

Okay. Recently a lot of attention have been around this guy lately.



Meet Muhammad Azwan Mohd Nor aka Wak Doyok.
I have no idea why he uses the name Wak Doyok as his noms de guerre. You have have to ask him that. But there's something about him that makes me want to get to know him more. Yeah. I know that he's the co-founder of an online store called the Garment. Okay, the name of the store sounds vague. It only tells you that they sell clothes (duh!) but it makes me want to check it out and makes me wonder about stuff like what do they sell, is it available for girls, do they have attractive price range, do they have a membership program or something.

My sources (yeah, right) tell me that this 33-year-old fashion designer and entrepreneur is actually an engineering graduate from Germany (I like). He's been interested in fashion ever a boutique called Ben Sherman opened in Malaysia.

Personally, I think this guy is a freaking socialite. I mean, look at his Instagram profile! There are hundreds of photos of him in different events. There are photos of him everywhere! Makes me think, who the hell help him take his selfies. I need that person to help me take selfies (despite me not being a selfie taker). I wanna look good in photos too.

Anyway, jokes aside. I really want to get to know this guy. His rise to fame (?) is so sudden (or chambering life totally sucked my social life dry) that I find him enigmatic. I don't really just want to know Wak Doyok. I want to know the man behind Wak Doyok. The man behind the mustache. I want to get to know him as in personally. I don't want to know about how he came about being in the fashion industry. I can basically read it up on the net. I want to know what makes him choose fashion despite being an engineering grad. I want to know what drives him and what people around him said when he first started out. I want to get to know Muhammad Azwan bin Mohd Nor. And, I bet you guys want to get to know him too.

PS #1: He looks quite cute in that mustache and beard of his. It makes me want to speak English in a British accent and dress up like a 19th century British lady.

PS #2: I don't have a crush on him, okay. I still have Linsanity bug in me.

PS #3: Wang Lee Hom is married T-T Congrats, man!

PS #4: DO you think he can give me some fashion tips?

Nice Peter: A short little song about love

Now, for a short little song about love by Nice Peter.



It's not hard to be in love
For me anymore
It's as easy as an egg
Falling on the floor
You won't ever have to drive
I'll get us there
Just promise me you won't cry
When I lose my hair

I'll probably meet you as a friend
And I won't see the change
But, all of the sudden
We'll both feel something strange
You can ask me if it hurts
I'll tell you no
Just promise me you won't leave
When I'm getting older
You will be getting older too
And I'll still be there for you

With or without the hair
Just be you.

Many thanks tomasterofvlogging for posting the lyrics of this song in the comment box of the video.

PS: I'm not in love. Maybe I am. If the guy's on the video counts (or Jeremy Lin). Just kidding! But seriously. Nope, not lin love. I mean, in love. Wait! I'm not in love okay!

Charlie McDonnell : Doctor What

Lyrics courtesy of Lyrics Mode

My girlfriend thinks that I'm a nutter,
My parents say that I'm an utter fool,
For wasting my time on this.

But I'm not chasing my imagination,
I just can't help avoid my fixation,
Cos I know that he really exists.

But if you look through time then you will find,
So many artefacts have been signed with clues,
All pointing his way.

And though he may have different faces,
I think it's him in all the cases,
The man is an enigma,
Who knows where he is today.

Just have a look at what I've found and see,
Am I going crazy or is he following me,
You can find his legacy sketched throughout,
Though the history books always tend to leave him out.

He's called the Doctor
But Doctor What?
I think he's a Martian though I know that that's a long shot

Doctor
But Doctor When?
I'll check back to prehistoric times and there he is again

Well that's the Doctor
But Doctor How?
He saves the planet all the time but never stops to bow

Oh mister Doctor
But Doctor Who?
And most importantly Doctor, how can I find you?

He takes danger with him everywhere he goes
So if he does show up then we'll know
That something's not right

But I just can't help but think that I
Would make a good companion by his side
I'm pretty bright, always polite, oh Doctor take me up tonight.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/charlie_mcdonnell/doctor_what.html ]
I know that I should get a grip
But I need to see inside his ship
And have him take me everywhere he gone.

Or at least I'd like to meet the guy
To shake his hand and say goodbye
And thank him for all he's done

You can't deny aliens must be real
Well is it that hard to believe that some might be revealed to look like us
Well I know it's just all speculation but I feel I must
Try to trust in what I feel

He's called the Doctor
But Doctor What?
I think he's a Martian though I know that that's a long shot

Doctor
But Doctor When?
I'll check back to prehistoric times and there he is again

Well that's the Doctor
But Doctor How?
He saves the planet all the time but never stops to bow

Oh mister Doctor
But Doctor Who?
And most importantly Doctor, how can I find you?

I know to you I must look like some kind of Neanderthal
While you' re a flying cosmic genius and know-it-all
I'm just an insect, there's nothing I can do.
How could I expect that would ever meet you Doctor!

But Doctor What?
I think he's a Martian though I know that that's a long shot

Doctor
But Doctor When?
I'll check back to prehistoric times and there he is again

Well that's the Doctor
But Doctor How?
He saves the planet all the time but never stops to bow

Oh mister Doctor
But Doctor Who?
And most importantly Doctor, how can I find you?
