A couple of months ago, I had this epiphany concerning the credibility of my vocabulary.

Its been 10 days that I am back. And I am still unable to form the words that go with these amazing cites. To quote my dear friend's wise words, 'You'll be thankful you have eyes'. And grateful I was. ...

HELP you learned folks of the blogosphere.! I come to you with a severe skincare dilemma. I am here finding myself unable to choose a cleanser for my, erm, slightly weird skin. Last year I was hit by a severe bout of adult acne that totally threw me off my complacent skin care regime thus far (which was tantamount to nothing, really) I...
