Educated ladies can speak only grammar, but cannot cook
February 19, 2010
I have argued with my mom several times, why the only thing she pressures my sister about is the idea of: Learning how to cook, cook, cook, as if woman-hood was synonymous with cooking. My mom makes this “you must know how to cook this and that” gospel look as if its the most important […]

November 30, 2009
Girl, you are in love with him, and you don’t know why? My guy, you are in love with her and yet you don’t know why? Should loving someone have a reason? No: I’m of the opinion that such a love isn’t genuine when he’s able to explain why he loves her; when she can […]

September 7, 2009
I believe that the words FALLING IN LOVE and FALLING OUT OF LOVE are more than just mere reality.
