Things I Say/Have Said!

The title of this blog today is pretty self explanatory. Yes...all things, viewpoints, opinions, quotes etc, created by yours truly over the past few years that I've posted on my Facebook wall and Tumblr account, that I chose to share with you. 

If you've seen anything similar elsewhere, it's a MAJOR coincidence. Anything I know to be a quote is quoted with the persons name, or I quote it as 'unknown' if I don't know. Unlike others, it's not a big deal for me to take credit for a quote I bloody well know isn't mine. It just isn't.

The below is written and worded by me, myself and I.

Things I HATE That You May Love!

"Do not read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly." - Baz Lurhmann
  • Nandos - This deserves the top spot! I grew up in a West Indian (Jamaican) household so I know what good, tasty, well seasoned food tastes like to the point that I'm not about to pay for what my mama can do better, and for FREE! I have had Nandos in the past and it's definitely something I CAN and DO live without. The amount of people who live in these establishments like a second home is a 'head tilt' moment for me. With the thousands of restaurants in London, the invention of a Tastecard and Toptable and people keep returning here? Don't ever invite me to Nandos I will honestly tell you I cannot make it as I despise this chain.
  • Fashion/beauty magazines - I used to be a magazine hoarder. You think absolutely nothing of buying a few magazines a month, but when you have to get rid of two years worth at a time to make room for the new ones you realise you have a problem and don't even want to think about how much you've spent on them over the years. I don't buy magazines AT ALL anymore. For me it's a waste of space and money. The only magazine that enters this house is the free one from ASOS, and after I'm done with it, it goes straight into the recycling bin. Tired of seeing hair clips start at £3,550 and gowns listed without a price because it costs way too much in these pretentious magazines where you need to 'call the stockist'. I don't need to pay £3.99 for someone to tell me where to eat, shop, buy a new leather bound diary or any of that s***. It may serve a purpose for some women but having them didn't make me any more of a better woman than it does now for not having them.

Things I LOVE That You May Hate!

Aqua 'Fleetwood' Gathered Printed Maxi Dress £140 - ASOS
  • Repeat episodes of Friends - it never gets old and I still laugh...yes I do!
  • Maxi dresses - sorry to the heffers who can't pull these dresses off, but I'm tall and slim and I can!
  • Reality TV - it has no bearing on my intellect. It's just a genre of TV that I enjoy. I am perfectly capable of digesting information and holding conversations. I can also spell very well and know the difference between, there, their and they're. Guess what?? I watch documentaries too! **GASP** Who would think an avid reality TV watcher could do all of those things?
  • Rice Milk - it's bloody delicious, but maybe an acquired taste to some.
  • Anything BlackBerry - some of you iPhone fans really need to get over this technology 'war'.
