What if all your life you were told that you were beautiful/handsome by those around you?

Growing up with people numerously […]

I’ve always been a skeptic ….. but the kind who likes to try stuff out before he passes judgement on it and jhastises everyone else for believing in it. I’ve tried everything from weejee* boards (home made and store bought) to spiritual teas (which kind of like shrooms only less trippy and more of a […]

I’m loving this cute red plaid dress at Brown Booteek (Tala Center). The belt adds an edge to the outfit. Dress it up with booties or knee-high boots and your look would be complete.

As we sit in the ‘7osh’ I decide to take a break from correcting exams and visit my blog, for no other reason than wanting to post a picture and a song. The picture is one of those impasses in playing card, much similar to that impasse I’m having in correcting exam papers. The three […]

     Happy birthday to the World’s longest King-in-waiting, Prince Charles. He is 60 today and that makes me feel old as I can remember when he got married and didn’t seem that old at the time.

I’ve been watching Eastenders daily ( or sometime the omnibus ) and I really can’t see what Bianca sees in that toad Tony.

He spotted her every now and then.
