Crazy loveable

After a very quiet Easter, I was having a conversation and realised that neither of us had been to the zoo in some time. Cue the impromptu trip with some friends to the Emperor Valley Zoo. Now the cost to enter the zoo was 30 dollars for adults and 15 for children.  After entry although they give you a receipt the security doesn't like to let anyone leave for any reasons.  So if you leave anything in your car or have to leave the compound for any reasons you will have problems.  The day itself was pretty good. The animals entertaining and there was so much to see that it was almost like taking a hiking trip.  The zoo itself had gone under a number of renovations for the better,  however although it was a big day in the year for zoo visitors some of the exhibits we're closed or still under constructions. Positives -getting to touch some of the animals that the zoo keepers brought out like the snake -lots more bathrooms and seating areas -stories from zoo kee...

The Korean Embassy in Trinidad and Tobago has always been welcoming body to the nationals who are interested in their language and their culture. Since I joined their official language classes I have learnt so much but I have also made so many amazing friends. In 2017 they have made efforts to strengthen the ties between Trinidad and Tobago and Korea by having a Korea Week. The week would include movie nights, concert by a Korean Orchestra group and a series of competitions, including a speech contest and a UCC contest.  Yours truly participated in the UCC competition with the help and support of my brother and my boyfriend. With their help I was able to place third with my entry entitled; Kpop Karaoke Party. It was quite a silly entry but it took a lot of work to put together. Plus I did the singing for all the parts (horribly too heh).  There were lots of amazing entries and I was just proud to be part of them. The entrants who came first and second really deserved it....

On a typical Sunday, one of my cousins informed me that she had tickets to the Red Cross Youth in Concert and asked if I would like to attend. I would only have a half hour to get ready though because the venue, Southern Academy of the Performing Arts (SAPA) is very far from home. It was really late notice but I didn't mind going to support the little kids who were showing off their talents to raise funds. A long Car ride later and we finally reach our destiny, a few minutes late but there. What I liked: 1) We have so many amazing talented kids in Trinidad and Tobago. As a citizen I am extremely proud. 2) The talents varied from dancers, singers, and musicians to monologues and speech bands among others. 3) Some of these little kids came out to represent and they did so well. 4) All the talents...some of them blew me away. The drummers and Tassa players made me want to get up and dance. The pan players were all entertaining. Sometimes I cant stand pan but I have to ad...

Hello good day and good morrow to you my lovelies and how are you on this amazing day? What makes this day amazing you ask? Well all of my classes for today got cancelled. Yay! What was that? I shouldn’t ‘yay’ for that because education is important? Well you know, I…I wouldn’t willingly miss a class. Once there is class, I’m there but that doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy a day off every now and then. I plan on doing some studying today as well. I’m not going to waste it. I’m updating am I not. Sooo, today I would like to talk about education. Just a few things to note, in Trinidad the when it comes to education things are limited. I have to mention that if you are living in the West it’s even more limited as most tertiary schools are either eastward or southward. One of my former teachers said that it was because people assumed that most persons willing to further their education are living in the east. I call bullshit on this. Whoever has the brains to build a proper internationally reco...

Hello and good morrow to you! How are you all on this wonderfully wondrous day? Great I hope. Today was kind of strange. For one I still am not sure that today is Tuesday, i was thinking that it was Monday or something, the only proof that i had that it wasn't (besides my watch) was that people were saying it that it was. Anyway on to today. Today I would like to talk about emancipation. Tomorrow its going to be the Trinidad and Tobago's 50th anniversary of Emancipation. So I would to wish everyone from our island a happy happy emancipation day. The country seems to be going through the works of getting ready for tomorrow. I hope that it goes along smoothly. I have a few thoughts on what they are going with there plans on the celebration but I would rather not go into that right now. We have been through alot as a people and as a nation and as we past this landmark in our nation's history let us hope that as we have many more mild stones to cross, we do so to the best o...
