The Parenting Debate

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

Pros

  1. Might be fun
  2. Might become less self absorbed
  3. Parenting could be interesting
  4. A new unconditional  relationship.
  5. Seeing things through the eyes of a child
  6. Improves sense of joy!
  7. A child is what you leave when you pass, they pick up the torch for you;

Cons

  1. Kids require alot of attention
  2. babies are very expensive
  3. Parenting could be boring
  4. Bye Bye Spontaneity
  5. Diagreements between parents.
  6. Might change your mind later.

I am of the thought that everyone, well, everyone in the sense of a mentally stable, non addict, should likely be a parent. I mean lesser people are doing it. Hell, my son gave me a reason to live. If i ever do anything great, i will do it in his name, even now just thinking of him i have tears in my eyes. hes the greatest thing in the world. SO yeah. if you can, do. Becuase the moment your kid is born, its like the colors get brighter, and nothing is the same, everything you thought you knew, it changes, your view changes, when you first hear his first sounds, they are backgrounds by angels singing. its just god damn incredible.

Studio Life

Saturday, June 2nd, 2007

What if you had to move to NYC on a whim? Could you cope with a small apartment or a studio? Space is at a premium in NYC, and most are not used to it.
Have less, but maintain your standards of quality. Hold true to your style.

Think minimalist, sparten, practical.
Maintain a comfortable furniture size, be aware that too large and you will be crowded, even setting yourself up with hazardous walking in the evening! Dont get more than you will actually use.

Hide a beds or futons are an answer, however the sleeper beds are a beast! so if you dont live on the first floor…..

Shelves are the prime key in situation where space is minimal, use lots of shelving. Look into hanging lights to preserve floor space.

Natural Hair Dyes

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

Theres a natural ingredient in black tea that makes it something like a dye. If you want highlights, a bunch of shine, and yet still darken you hair, this mya be something worth trying for you. Just brew 2 strong cups of black tea, and just use it to rinse the shampoo out of you hair  after you wash it. Careful! Very strong black tea could stain your skin a bit.

Alone, Black tea isnt terribly effective for dye jobs, theres a few  other ingredients needed for it to be truly effective. These other ingredients have a great side effect, they make your hair thicker, prevents fall out, and your hair will grow faster!!

Perhaps you wanna try it:

~~ A cup of Black Henna

~~ 2 cups of plain yogurt

~~ 10 black tea teabags
~~ a cup of water
**a cup of water
Soak the teabags in plain water, til the brew is very strong. Then simply use this water to mix up the henna and yogurt together. Apply to hair, cover, and let it sit in your hair for 6-8 hours. Wash your hair normally, and you will see the dramatic and wonderful change.

Since henne coats and seals the hair shaft, it actualy protects your hair. Doing this 2 times a week or so and your hair will be noticeably healthier. I
