Happy Emancipation Day Everyone!!

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...

Just another form of racism

Hello good day and good morrow to you. How are you on this wonderful day? Wonderful I hope. Today is very quiet so far, so thats good. I feel the need to do some work today and relax as well. Last night or I should say early this morning, I took the time to get some editing done. Eventually I stopped because I was tired and being tired and editing means even more mistakes than before. I am glad I started though... Progress is good! I was thinking about translating some German paragraphs or stories just to get some practice in. Right now I dont feel as if I am doing enough towards strengthening my language skills. Anyway today I would like to talk about something that I am not sure I want to give too much airplay but its something that got to me and I think that I should mention it after all. That is racism. *sigh isnt this an already tired topic...We should already be past this. Should be. Anyway I dont want to talk about normal forms of racism, we all know about those, but I want...

Story Ideas for the writer who's blocked part 2

Hello good day and good morrow to you. How are you on this lovely day? Fine I hope. What have you been up to? If you're like me, then you spent your day at the beach playing in the water and sitting in the sand. That's actually why I am updating so late today. Plus its one of those days when its just me by myself at home so yeah... So today I would like do another post with two ideas for writers with writer's block to work on. So just like the last post like that I am going to put two plot ideas that you can work on. Its going to have the same two characters with the little changes added to the plots to make them different. Its up to you to make a plot twist and make an ordinary story extraordinary. So lets begin... First idea: Its night, you're home alone and suddenly there is a knock on the door. When you go to answer it there is a man at the door selling candy. As you are about to close the door after you are finished talking to the strange man, the light flickers ...

Our Faults are our Friends

Hello and good morrow to you my friend. How are you on this wondrous and lovable day? Great I hope. My other brother came over yesterday and he is spending the weekend with us.Yay! I finally found out what happened on his birthday that he was so upset. His father forgot. He remembered the morning was going to buy him a cake at least and he decided not too. Things kind of went downhill from there. That is his fault though, I told him that he should of come with us and had a chief cook lunch for him but noo...Its still sad to here it didn't go as he wanted though. Anyway on to the main topic for today. Today I would like to talk about faults. Its something we all have even the people we admire or the people who we consider our idols. I myself will admit that my fault lists would be too many to note. I mean I'm lazy, stubborn easily depressed, emotionally lacking sometimes, emotionally overbearing other times, afraid, not always confident, self doubting, easily confused and a wh...

Story Ideas for the writer who's blocked

Hello good day and good morrow to you. How are you on this lovely day? Fine I hope. Anybody watching the Olympics opening ceremony? I am catching a bit of it but I was cleaning up a while ago so I missed a big part. I missed the starting too. I hope they show it over so I can take it in properly. Today I would like to talk about something something random. I want to drop a story idea for anybody who is suffering from writer's block. I know that I touched on the subject before so I thought that I could help out anyone who is suffering from it right now. So here is what I am going to do. I am going to drop two story ideas. Its going to be with the same characters but in different ways. You don't have to send your stories to me, you don't even have to mention to me that you used the idea (though I would love to see how you make it your own). Anyway here we go... First story idea: A detective investigating a series of murders when he realizes that his next door neighbour who...

Happy Birthday MOM, hope you're resting peacefully

Hello good day and good morrow to you! How are you on this lovely evening? Wondrous? Hopefully. As for me, My neck hurts because I slept badly so every time I try to look over my left shoulder I feel pain. Plus I have the cold and my voice is coming and going, so generally I'm a mess, but what kind of blogger would I be if I didn't update as promised? So here I am again with you, its a nice place to be when we're here together. Today is my mom's birthday, our second one without her. So this post is dedicated to her memory and I want to make it all about her. Today this post is about someone who has always meant the world to me and I thought that one of the best ways to honoring her is to post the Eulogy I wrote her funeral service. This is the first time since she died that I am taking the time to type it up, I wanted to before but I honestly couldn't bring myself to do it. So now, here we go: 'My mother was never a perfect woman, but she never tried to be ...

Movie Review: Regular Guys or Echte Kerle

Hello and good day all you guys and girls. How are you on this lovely evening?Fine and peachy I hope. I think that I am getting a cold. Not think really,it seems that I have it already. I'm sneezing and blowing my nose. That is one the reasons why I am updating in the last hour like I am right now.Its nine minutes past ten, so yes I am cutting it pretty close here. Me and my eleven o' clock deadline. Anyway today I would like to talk about an old German movie (I think it came out in 1996) I watched called 'Regular Guys' OR 'Echte Kerle'. It is the story of a man who tries to drink his problems away and wakes up the next day naked and in the arms of another man. This is an interesting plot and why I wanted to watch the romance comedy in the first place. So there is tension between the main guy (who is a cop) and the other guy (who is a mechanic and an out gay) as they end up living together. Also the cop is trying to find out if he slept with the mechanic (he ...
