So I thought, why not get back to blogging?

I'm a true bum. Totally been thinking, pondering, heaving, llamaing about writing things on here, but OH BOTHER.

Anyway I've been llamaing (I'm using the camelid as an adjective simply because I suddenly remembered it to be the animal I drew mindlessly on the first page of every set of notes when I was in junior college. This is sort of my way of paying tribute to it. What a true friend.) the net for a couple of hours now, and I stumbled upon some fabulous dancing. My kind of boogie-woogie. Amidst the smoky mist (hee-haw) and psychedelic LED lighting piercing through the darkness in that seedy club, this is how I dance:

Isn't it just sublime? I know I'm yards away from the Justin Timbrelake Cheering Squad, but come on, this is just as mind-blowing.

Maybe I will move to tumblr.com. I'll have a good think about it.

Love you bruvva.

Be safe.


When you finally manage to distance yourself from a pair of scissors or a hair salon every other year, you might be able to do this Aqila. AIN'T THIS PRETTY?

13 ways to hide a pimple.

Unfortunate as it is, the forehead is a hotbed of speckles of tiny zits, or if times are especially bad for you, a single bulbous inflamed dot right in the middle. So with the agenda of educating readers who suffer from a similar fate, my buddies Cheryl Lee (victim of the latter), Jacq and I will demonstrate 13 ways to disguise a centre pimple (in order of average-to-most effective methods):


#13: This is most suitable when taking photos. The non-blemished party (i.e. me) will be seen pointing at a random object, with the finger strategically blocking the victim's lone zit.


#12: The victim must, at all times, be seen staring gleefully at the ceiling/sky. The non-blemished party will be of walking assistance.


#11: You can't even slip up while eating because it is during a cross-table meal that you will be scrutinized the most. Use your utensils to block the zit.


#10: Pull a strip of hair across your forehead and loosely clip it. This move may be considered by random backward observers as fashion-forward.


#9: For this method to work, you must be interpreted as being under a huge amount of stress. Among other likely explanations would be debt, hunger and poor choice of a nail polish shade. It involves placing two fingers or an entire fist on your forehead (depending on the level of stress you wish to exhibit).


#8: Works best at an upbeat party as it involves a fair amount of hair littering your entire face. However if you are currently into or have been a loyal advocate of the "messy" and "just-rolled-out-of-bed" look, this method will be at your convenience.


#7: Forehead jewellery is a seldom applied genius. You have a wide array of gems of varying sizes to choose from, depending on the size of your zit. Disclaimer: Failure to sanitize the jewelry will nullify the usage of all other methods listed here. Seek medical help.


#6: Ask a friend to wrap his/her hands on your forehead. This may be perceived by the wider public as a gesture of affection. Also, please take note of the disclaimer from previous method.


#5: Wear a light-fabric and well-ventilated scarf or beanie to hide affected area. Avoid peach (as above) and other baby colours; it may make you look like an infant. (see above)


#4: If you are the adventurous sort, or just feeling dramatic, wrap scarf over entire face. Please remember to cut out nostril and eye holes otherwise you might end up with problems far surpassing that of a zit. Fold scarf up when eating.


#3: Frown. Just look at the stellar results above. Pimple magically "folds" into one of the creases! AN ILLUSION WIN.


#2: Wear your bag strap in the manner shown above. Discard the facial expression as displayed as the wider public might diagnose you as a probable retard.


#1: Keep a side-swept fringe. It's an open secret to appearing blemish-free. 

Great day everybody!
