I had to send money to Nigeria urgently on Sunday, so I went to Giant to use their Western Union service. The guy who was helping me told me that as of the day before (Saturday, October 5th 2013), Western Union had changed their policies for sending money to Nigeria. You can no longer send the money in US dollars. Your loved one has to receive the money in naira. What's so bad about that, you ask? The problem is, the bank converts the dollars at a rate that it lower than the market. From what Read More
The White Queen Stole My Sleep
You remember when I first told you about The White Queen (where I also mentioned my queen name - Queen Sophia IV)? Well, I've been watching it faithfully since it premiered, but a lot of times, I'm not able to watch it live because I'm not home. This past Saturday, however, I was home, so I watched it.

Whatever Happened To Kony?
Do you remember last year when catching Joseph Kony became the world's biggest mission. We must put an end to Kony! Kony was using children as his soldiers, handing them guns and making them kill.

Would You Use A Birth Photographer?
I just recently found out about birth photography. I mean, I've always known that people take pictures of child birth, but I've always pictured it more as a friend or member of the family taking pictures. However, you can actually hire a birth photographer to take professional pictures. I know it's not about the vagina, but I don't think I can ever, ever let someone take pictures of my vagina. Or my breasts. No way. Some people don't have vagina pictures of their child birth, but some other Read More
Julie Chen Had Eye Surgery Because She Was Too Chinese
Julie Chen, co-host of "The Talk" revealed that she had eye surgery to be more appealing to the masses. According to her, when she was in Daytona, Ohio, she had dreams of becoming a daytime news anchor in New York City, but she was told that she would never make it there because of her very Chinese (Asian) looks. They said she looked too Chinese, and so the people watching (who are obviously mostly not Chinese) would have a hard time relating to her. She has received a lot of backlash, Read More
