Chinese mobile phone manufacturer Ximax had their ridiculously small M007 Nice GSM phone on offer at 1Utama Mall.
My hands aren't that big either. It really is miniature.
This backpack has the look of a drawstring backpack but without the drawstring. There are no zippers to deal with but items still remain secure with front snap closure. The backpack can be expanded by undoing the side snaps. How cool is that!

Here's a few highlights from our 4 day backpacking trip into the Mt Jefferson Wilderness. The 5 mile hike into Carl Lake is lined with wild huckleberries and views of Mt. Jefferson.
From our base camp, we hiked the PCT and other trails with swimmable lakes. A true wilderness experience with only a few other campers.
The trailhead is accessed from the Jack Creek Trailhead off of Hwy 22, between Suttle Lake and Sisters (12 miles). It's about a 3 hour drive from Portland with about 5 miles of gravel.
Add this to your summer camping list.
Artist’s Statement
Artwork Name: Smoking’ Backpacks
Smokin’ Backpacks is simple photographic collage made using twenty-one different photographs that depict a girl smoking two cigarettes with a yellow Kånken backpack which underlines the fact that sometimes behind the trends that society creates there are marvellous aspects which no one is actually aware of.
The subject of this photograph is not the girl because it is not what stands out in the context but the yellow backpack that immediately captures the viewers eye. When taking this picture I payed particular attention to two different details with which I tried to argument my thesis, the yellow backpack and the cigarettes on both sides. Both of these two elements symbolise an aspect of the society. The yellow Kånken backpack is produced by a Norwegian brand called Fjallraven, which is a brand that is really involved in global issues. As a matter of fact it uses a great part of the earnings it makes with the backpack to improve the living conditions of people of the third world countries and the conditions of the environment we live in. The brand basically helps improve the planet we live in but very few people who buy the backpack know it. This takes us back to the second symbol the cigarettes. The girl is is depicted with two cigarettes to show how strongly the trends of society can influence the masses. Smoking is seen as a cool thing by many people and that is why over time it became a trend and people do it without really knowing why. This is what happens with the backpacks, because the people become blindly clouded by the trends the society creates that they don’t really understand the meaning the things have, they only see the meaning the society gives them.
