What does gender equality mean to you?

Sorry guys. Though up until now I refused to post controversial topics on my blog and tried to keep it happy and encouraging but today is a little different. I apologise for this post in advance for it will be a little on the serious side today. Some of you may agree with me and others may not. Some of my followers may continue to follow me and I may end up losing followers. And also I might end up getting some hate mail. Who knows? But I need to get this off of my chest.

Free the nipple campaignsA few days ago I came across an article about another ‘campaign’ with regards to #FreeingTheNipple where every picture of a female who is bare-chested places the nipples of their male counterpart over her own. Do you know where this is going? (Sigh) Continue reading

It has been a week since I have returned home!

Konnichiha minna! Are you all doing well? I am doing okay. It has been exactly one week since I have returned back home on vacation and yes I already have a summer job and started working since last week Wednesday. It is now 10 at night (6 hours behind the Netherlands) over here and I’m trying to write a blog post about how everything has been for me in this past week, but things are not going as I want. The internet literally sucks and trying to send pictures from my photo gallery on my phone to my computer is not working all that it’s really starting to aggravate and frustrate me. I’m probably a few minutes away from flinging my phone against a wall. But I can’t because both of my parents are in bed trying to sleep.

Coconuts cut and peeled

I was, however, able to send only four pictures to myself on my computer which is such a pity because I took quite a lot of pictures on my phone during the past week. Continue reading

Off on Vacation!

Hello my precious readers and followers! As of Sunday I have returned to my island, Saba, for vacation. It has been about a year since I was last here. I return home every year for about a month and a half to two months. Therefore, I will apologise in advance to you all, as I will not be making 3 posts a week like I have usually done since I started. Tomorrow I will also be starting a summer job I applied for several months ago. Continue reading

The Mysterious Creature

Hello everyone. Last weekend I had a very strange dream and so I decided to write it down as a story before I forgot it. It was quite a strange dream if I do say so myself. And I do not really know what to make of it. I have had a few people read it for me during that time and they too thought it was a strange but interesting and even maybe thrilling. So have read and please do tell me your thoughts. I am very curious to know what you all think. Also please like, comment and share if you like this post and don’t forget to follow my blog! Have a great day. 🙂 Continue reading

Saba’s library now has a copy of my poetry book, I’m Only Human!

The libraryAfter going through my news-feed on Facebook yesterday evening I was met with quite a surprise. Imagine my surprise when I saw that the governor of my island, Saba, presenting my poetry book (I’m Only Human) yesterday morning to the head Librarian, Miss Nanny. The Queen Wilhelmina Library is located in the capital of the island known as The Bottom. It was quite a shock to say the least. It was so shocked that I laughed like a maniac, along with a friend of mine, for the first few minutes of seeing it. Continue reading

Happy Father’s Day!

Father's DayHello everyone! Today is Father’s Day and I wish every father around the world, wherever you may be, a Happy Father’s Day. I hope you all have a wonderful day today and see many more Father’s Days to come.

Since today is Father’s day I considered about what I would like to post and later decided that I wanted to share with you all, a small precious memory I have of my father as a child. I do not usually like posting such personal things about myself and my life but today is special, since it is Father’s Day after all. Continue reading
