As I leaf through Newsday, Long Island’s newspaper, I glance at the Flash! page, which dishes celebrity gossip. Generally, I don’t read the text, since I care about who’s booted off American Idol on any particular week only slightly less than I care about trout fishing in Iceland. But in the past weeks, I kept seeing two names I didn’t recognize: Jon and Kate. Every day...

I suppose that puzzle pieces are as good a place to start as any... for they serve as a good analogy for those millions of tiny bits and pieces whose sum total make up our lives.  Memories, skills, weaknesses, knowledge, scars, events, emotions... all of which are discretely packed in little containers in our minds, yet need to somehow fit together and intertwine with one another...

You know whats weird? ... (And i cant speak for everyone) but I find myself watching films, TV shows etc, and taking some-what of a personal life lecture from everything. Like i can relate to it somehow. I've just finished watching a 2 part episode of Greys Anatomy, and in both episodes, there was 1 question that was being asked throughout them, and that question was "if you...

Okay, so I'm slightly drunk ((it's Friday and I went to the pub... here's hoping my flu doesn't get worse!)) but anyway I'm here at my house with my two best mates, Brandy and Moo. Brandy's my best friend, Moo's my ((adopted)) sister. But earlier we were talking about diet and weight loss, etc., which made me start to say stuff I'd kinda rather NOT say to my friends. I don't want them to know...

Wow, when I was watching the news last night and it broke through that Michael Jackson had been taken to UCLA Medical Center unresponsive...my heart dropped and I was stunned. Think what you want about Michael Jackson.  I have my own opinions on that matter.  The simple fact of the matter is that he was a HUGE part of my childhood and teens!  I adored him to...

I've been reading the many many entries on Michael that people have been writing, and yes, I know I have done one too.  There is no doubt he was loved by many, and will be missed by many.  But, when all is said and done, and the fame and everything is stripped away we have a man who fiddled with kids.   Now I'm not gonna ramble on bout this that and the other because, like...

I feel really restless this morning and fear it's going to be one of those days where I end up feeling like nothing is going right. I have tried to avoid most of the tv coverage of yesterday's deaths, but the internet makes up for that. I feel a sense of loss for these people I of course never met, but who each had an impact on my young life. Their presence in pop culture brings back so...

Yesterday the guys were out watching Transformers. I stayed home, not wanting to spend that money on something that I'm totally not interested in. So I was home alone when Jiazhen came back. She had been out for the entire day, shopping and watching a movie by herself. She told me that they were had officially broken up. When I asked her if she was ok, I saw her trying to hold back her...

 Maybe they will dedicate a children's hospital to...

Today is one of those weird days when days gone by seem to wave goodbye one last time with the passing of someone who was once everywhere is gone. While I was thinking back on the poster my bedroom wall was graced with when I was young, of Farrah Fawcett in her bathing suit, who also died today ..... Michael Jackson dies. I have made so many jokes about Michael Jackson ...... I have enjoyed...
