What pain have I inflicted on someone else? Yikes - I was often the dumper as opposed to the dumpee when I was younger so I imagine quite a bit there!! I really couldn’t stand it when boys got to...

Envy, gluttony, greed or avarice, sloth, pride, lust or wrath. I don’t believe in the seven deadly sins, created in order to chastise and create guilt. As a teen / early twenties, I was a huge T...

What is your personality type? (ENTJ, INTJ, etc.). Do you believe it fits you? I did a quick online test that said ENFP. I’ve never really paid much attention to these things but here’s a little ...
No jo mo Bîst du
What is the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make? I’m pretty spontaneous, I don’t spend a long time agonising over decisions. I go with what feels right in any given moment. Nothing lasts fore...
No jo mo ਇੱਕੀ
What notable events happened the year I was born. Since I don’t have a great deal of memory from that year, especially as I was born four weeks before the end of the year, I’ve spent the past hou...
No jo mo roa-polo amby
So. What took me by surprise? Good question, good question. I’m going to go with an oldy but a goody. It was June 2002 and hubby (he wasn’t my hubby then, he was my boyfriend) and I were on Glas...

So, what would make a cray cray vacay? I really don’t know - so many destinations and experiences appeal to me. And what does the prompt mean by crazy? Crazy = ridiculous, crazy = insane or crazy...
No jo mo iri na ise
What am I passionate about? The thing that raises my passions more than anything else right now is also something that causes me intense frustration. The state of modern education which still ru...
no jo mo tekau ma wha immovable object or irresistible force?
Hmm… So I guess this means: do I stand solidly in people’s way or do I attract people to me? Of course, my translation could be wrong… Anyway, as life isn’t black and white the answer is both. W...
