GO Women GO


Ive been sick for the past few days and needed to get a prescription at the local drug store. While I was waiting for my medicine I was browsing the magazine section. Now usually I go for the fashion magazines or more of the travel magazines but THE ATLANTIC really caught my eye. The feature article was called " The End Of Men". Shock!!!

So After picking up my drugs, I rushed home to find the Version where I didnt have to pay 8$ and what do you know I found it.

I was so excited by this article, not because I dont like men ( quite the opposite I love Men ( okay.. just one in particular) but because I often feel that women are marginalized in the workforce. They have a tougher time of balancing everything. We're often having to choose between family and careers.

So raise a glass girls and enjoy the read.

The End of Men

High and Mighty.



Hello WONDER!
Okay so this has been my obsession since I was younger. I always wanted to Visit this ancient Peruvian city. 2,430 m above sea-level, a climb like no other, above tropical rain forest, really holds its allure for me. And to think that this has only been rediscovered about 100 years ago. Hello calling. This is definitely on my bucket list. I rediscovered my passion for this place a few nights ago. I don't know why I haven't made any plans to see it yet? Hello Crazy?
Anyway, this is definitely a place I want to visit with someone. MHM. You know who you are!
Any how! I have managed to sustain my running as promised. My lunch packing and healthy food eating has gotten better. I make tofu and green leafy ( don't know the name of the stuff) soup. So, In retrospect I am becoming better at sticking to my commitments. Cannot wait for my Europe trip this august. Trying to go somewhere, where it is not too hot. Cant wait to plan it. Will keep you updated.

THIS WEEKEND WAS AMAZING!
THANKS YOU!

ZEN ZEN ZEN

Sleeplessness. Honestly. One Moment I am passing out the next my brains are on fire and I cant sleep. Please dear GOD take pity and let me close my eyes ( one eye closed ). Nope not a wink. FINE ! I WILL EXHAUST MYSELF BY WRITING HERE! Life! Hello Life!  Hello 2 decades! What do you have to show for yourself? 2 pieces of furniture that i owe. CHECK. a dozen pairs of shoes. CHECK. Girlfriends that make me laugh so hard I almost pee my pants. CHECK. The Same Girlfriends that are there for me when I really need it. CHECK. My family that loves every silly dumb and obnoxious bit of me. CHECK. A Boyfriend that makes me melt. CHECK. The same Boyfriend that I feel makes me think about my future and scares me. CHECK. One who makes everything just disappear with his smile and easy going nature and awesome Personality. CHECK. One who cares about me, even though I Don't understand it. CHECK. My young restless heart. CHECK. A job that lets me have fun. CHECK. My sister that smells like My sister ( DON'T ASK... SHE SMELLS LIKE A BABY to me since she was little) CHECK.

Little Everyday details of everyday life and the people it includes. CHECK.Definitely overwhelming with so many check marks.

I LOVE it all. BUT SOMETIMES I NEED A TIME OUT. A quite room. I dream of a bathroom. MY ZEN ROOM. I would go to my ZEN room ( Maybe take my honey with me) lock it up and spend some quality time there. I would just let my heart beats vibrate against my chest and bounce of the walls. Let me breath fill my lungs and allow my body to be explored by my mind. MY ZEN ROOM. COMING SOON.
