Why Oh Why ...

Do hairdressers chop off a mile of your hair when you only ask for a trim ?? I've changed hairdressers zillions of times because of this .. it's like the curse of hairdressers or something , as soon as they have a pair scissors in their hands and a head of hair in front of them they suddenly go into a trance state and forget that just a millisecond ago you were holding your fingers just a centimetre apart while stating "This .. is how much I want to trim off .. "
I've decided I want to grow my hair long again .. actually even longer then it was .. something like down to my lower back . But still I can't not have it trimmed because there's no point in any hairstyle if you have unhealthy hair . I have my hairdresser come to my place because it's more comfortable for me . The last time I had a trim was about 3 months ago and she actually trimmed as much as I wanted , or I should say as little as I wanted . Of course she couldn't do it without commenting "It needs much more but I'll only cut half an inch like you want.." I was happy she understood me .So today I didn't feel the need to tell her a second time that all I want is a little trim cos I dumbly assumed she would obey like last time ...
How wrong was I not to remember the damn curse of the scissors .. which can only be broken if you insist on asking for the exact length of what you want cut over 3zillion times .
"Oh now that looks much much better .. and it's so much more manageable.." I hear her say as I count my money to pay her whilst swearing silently that this is the last bloody time !! .. until next time ..

Fang

Its my birthday soon and as a birthday present from my dad I asked for the book "Fang" by James Patterson .. and he ordered it and I'll have but by Tuesday *yays* In an earlier post I wrote a short review for "Maximum Ride-The angel experiment" which is the first book from six of the Maximum Ride series.I actually was planning to read them after each but as this was the last book released and as Fang is my fave character from the book I asked for this one .. but I plan on reading the others in the future too =] I just hope by reading this one first it want ruin the fun of reading the others afterwards!!

Please comment if you read the series and tell me if you think I should read the previous books before .. without any spoilers though .. Thank you's !! =]

Fashion is Nice...but please don't kill my friends!!

I was browsing some fashion websites and checking out what the latest trends are for Fall 2010 and though there are loads of cool and chic styles I still can't understand how at this day when we are supposed to be so advanced and all that , people still are torturing and killing animals for their fur .Yep fur seems to be in again and loads of designers are using it in their collections . Not that I am judging any designer for using fur cos I love fur in fashion but why not use fake fur instead ?
Now some people might wonder whats the difference between killing an animal for its fur and killing an animal to eat .. I used to wonder the same thing . First of all I'm not vegetarian and love to eat meat . I believe that animals should be killed in a quick and humane way for food . I used to think somehow that's the same way they kill animals for fur until I saw a vid that showed exactly how they kill these poor animals . I was sickened by it , some animals aren't even killed but skinned alive . Its horrible =[  I was going to post a link with the vid but changed my mind cos Its too horrendous to watch but if you can find loads of clips on YouTube.
So I just wanted to raise awareness about this subject cos I really HATE animal cruelty and it sickens me to see any living creature suffering . Nature should be respected !! And we can still look fashionable without torturing an innocent being .. so please wear faux fur (fake fur)!!  I know there are loads of people who agree with me but still some people insist on murdering for money .. lets stop them by not buying massacred animals and wearing them !!

Just Movies

Right now Im in "movie mode" .. I couldnt remember the last time I had seen a movie , Im just so busy all the time and I sort of forget films during summertime cos I spend more time outdoors but I was missing watching something good so here are some short reviews of the films Ive been watching lately ..

The Basketball Diaries

Ive got this one on dvd and had seen it already before but I wanted to see it again because its one of those films which really makes you think. Its basically about this teenager Jim Carroll (Leonardo DiCaprio) and how he falls into a drug addiction . Leonardo DiCaprio is really young in this one but still he gives an excellent performance!! My star rating is a 4/5

Disturbia

I never go for horror films but this one was on tv and actually its not really scary . This teen who is under house arrest for punching his teacher develops a new hobby of spying on his neighbours . He starts noticing strange things going on in one of his neighbours houses and tells his two friends that he thinks his neighbour is a murderer .. anyway not to give anything away incase you might see it .. basically these three friends start snooping to find out the truth . My star rating is a 3/5 . Not anything special really !!

Hoping to go to the local DVD store soon  cos I really need to get up todate with the latest movies =)

Thought of the day ...

"Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world." — Marilyn Monroe

So True!! Shoes have a huge role in a girls life .. they can change her mood instantly or she changes her shoes according to mood .. whichever!! No matter how much shoes a girl has she never has enough (actually this counts for loads of other things in my case lol .. like handbags , sunglasses ,makeup .. meh!!) Anyway today as I was getting ready for me and baby's daily walk to mums place this thought crossed my mind and I thought "To heck with my flip flops today I'm wearing my heels .. " =D (Note: About a year ago it would have been the most normal thing to do but nowadays with an 9month old baby to run after all day long , its quite a brave decision for me )
And that's exactly what I did .. well actually I wore wedges and not so high either [ xD ] but still walking down the street I felt tall and confident and you know what?! I actually DID feel I could conquer the world today!!!
