This article is a little old but still it applies. I’ve been reading a lot about ergonomic chairs lately, and I find that this article sorta sums it up.

I have to be too rich to spend SGD1000 and up for these chairs. How I wish I am too rich…

Oh and why do I want to spend so much on a chair? Read this. It’s just one of the many articles and people out there that say the same thing. And it’s true. I haven’t even started working and I have backaches occurring regularly (meaning it goes away after some time and comes back). Yes, I have even considered physiotherapy. But I just find that that takes up a lot of time and money and I don’t think treatment is the right direction of solving the problem.

Oh well. Added it to the wish list.

This all came about when I’m supposed to read up about Design Patterns. Got distracted with looking at keyboards. Hmm.. The new Das Keyboard looks good. Wish I could order it but then it seems like it’s gonna arrive too late.

I also came across the HHKB Pro 2, which is a USD250 keyboard that looks something like this:

Pretty normal looking huh? There’s a lot about it online. When I have the money. I’ll invest in all these things. When I have the money…

I recently saw a padded nylon microfibre tote bag at Project Shop, Paragon, by Property Of… and I fell in love with the material..

It’s really really light and yet padded (so no direct contact with sharp corners of objects inside, plus cushioning for stuff like laptops). I’m guessing it’s also resistant to wear and tear and water-proof. Good stuff.

I was shopping with Mike and Eric yep. We went to Actually… and I found a pair of 100% nylon microfibre berms.. It felt really light and good… Argh. But it was dirty green. Reminded me of military colours, and of my airgrading flight suit, which turned me off real bad. If only it was in other colours as well.. Like the bags at Project Shop where it came in Silver as well. The pants cost $160 a pair.

Oh well. The tote bag is quite small for me, but too large for my mum to carry, I feel. Arghhh…

And searching online for such stuff, it seems like a pretty rare material. Most of the results are track pants and cases for musical instruments.
