Canadian NDP leader Thomas Mulcair publicly asks if the ruling Conservative party really lost 3.2 billion dollars of taxpayer money or is the money in the banana stand.
Precious, Mr. Mulcair, who knew you were such the jokester!
Words were never truer.
Met Gala, 2013 Fashion Winners- according to me
It’s all about the B&W except for Kate Bosworth who’s a punk goddess in that pink and chains (or frankly whatever she wears).
Side note: this might be the one and only time I ever include Anne Hathaway on any list I make.
All Celine Dion, all the time, everywhere in The Gambia.
Much love for my homegirl and my homeland!

Sorry, not sorry but I actually love Ke$ha so much!
This crazy animal is actually so gorgeous underneath all that glitter!

For some strange reason when I was really young, my 2 cousins and I staged a protest in our grandparents living room chanting, “Rita MacNeil, Rita MacNeil”. To this day I have no clue why, I guess we really wanted to hear her music and maybe dance a little jig.
I’ll never forget going to her famous tea house in Nova Scotia when I was 13 years old with my Mom.
Rita died yesterday at the ripe age of 68. She was a Canadian gem and all time legend. She’ll be missed in the hearts across the nation.
RIP Rita.

Grown up bullies, usually known as politicians, but recently including professors, I just have NO time for you.
Finding it hard to take validity to a document where on the first page it says “REPRINED” in 2002. Pretty sure that’s a really embarrassing typo meant to say “reprinted”.
The content of the Constitution is minimal and non-descriptive Much of what it states is opposite of what I see in terms of equality on a day to day life here in the streets.
So I’m currently living in The Gambia and this makes me really nervous, but mostly sad.
Before coming here I hadn’t even really heard of the Gambia. Now it’s all over the worldwide news- and not in a positive way.
For my safety, I guess I should take my PRIDE button off my backpack.
What a shame. Equality for all.
Today I was told I look like a “real African”. Cool, nice to know, but I definitely bought all the clothes I’m wearing in Mexico
