I have never seen anything so sexy. Every time I see one on the road, I cannot stop staring at it. And I imagine myself in one all the time. It&#8217;s black, and it has a mild tint. I have made it my desktop background picture, and in my mind&#8217;s eye, I drive it everyday. \u00a0Those who have been following my blog know that I have always had a thing for Range Rovers. Well, that isn&#8217;t over yet. I still like it, but it&#8217;s on the back burner. Right now, my love for the Dodge Charger is blazing hot.

I have been literally obsessing over getting a new camera. I used to have a Nikon D40X, but it packed up after four years. I still have my external flash and batteries, and I cannot wait to get my hands on a new camera. It&#8217;s hard to miss what you never had, you know, but I have had the Nikon; I have had a DSLR camera, so I know the kind of great pictures it&#8217;s capable of taking. No matter how good my Samsung Galaxy SIII is, it leaves me wanting for more. And there is so much I need my camera for on this blog.

Ange ou D\u00e9mon Le Secret Elixir de Parfum<\/strong>\u00a0: When I purchased my Givenchy perfume from Macy&#8217;s, one of the many little samples they included was\u00a0<strong>Ange ou D\u00e9mon Le Secret Elixir Eau de Parfum<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; also by Givenchy. The day I used it, I just knew I had to have it. Funny enough, I don&#8217;t remember testing it at the store, but that&#8217;s fine. The problem now is that I don&#8217;t like the name of this perfume. Ange ou D\u00e9mon means Angel or Demon. At first, I decided that I won&#8217;t even buy it, but then I love it. So, I thought, maybe I&#8217;d buy it and plead the blood of Jesus on it everyday. Abi? How I for take do am? I don&#8217;t know why these Oyibo people would name a perfume like this. Don&#8217;t they know that as a Nigerian Christian, this perfume is in conflict with my spiritual and cultural values? Somebody needs to tell them. Anyway, luckily for them, the conflict is not enough for me to not buy it. As a daughter of the Most High God, I am more than able to trample upon the demons and use the perfume still *adjusts halo* Keep in mind that it&#8217;s the elixir version I want, not just the regular one.\u00a0You may purchase it\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www1.macys.com\/shop\/product\/givenchy-ange-ou-demon-le-secret-elixir-eau-de-parfum-3.4-oz?ID=591094&amp;CategoryID=32148#fn=sp%3D1%26spc%3D52%26ruleId%3D57%26slotId%3D30\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5333\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/verastic.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Lancome-Brush-Set.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5333\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5333\" title=\"Lancome-Brush-Set\" src=\"https:\/\/verastic.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Lancome-Brush-Set.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"262\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5333\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lancome Brush Set<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>4. \u00a0Lanc\u00f4me Brushes:<\/strong> I need a new set of make-up brushes.

Therefore, Blackberry is on my list. I am under the assumption that they have a new device coming, too, along with the new operating system. And I am not aware that there is an official picture of this yet. Still, I want it. Yes, I&#8217;m asking for a phone that I am yet to see or experience.
