Why I am Still Married
Picked this up at Chapters the other day because the topic has always fascinated me. Women write their hearts out on Love, Loss, Sex and Who does the dishes. The book is divided based on Silver to Gold (50th anniversary) Steel to China (20th), Sugar to Tin (10th) and Paper to Wood (5th). Read from those who have already gone through it and learn something. What makes it last and what it’s all about. Here is how it starts….
“When I think of my life before I married, I see another person, a child really, although I was almost twenty-four when I became a bride.”
Why I am Still Married by Karen Propp & Jean Trounstine
I have so many conflicting opinions on marriage and what it’s all about. I did not grow up in a traditional household, my father lived in Shanghai for most of my life. My parents are still married but lives apart for over 20 years. Is marriage about love or is it about commitment? What do you think?
shoutout to cheating men out there – why don’t you focus on disappointing one woman at a time?

This Week @ The Movies:
A Las Vegas-set comedy centered around three groomsmen who lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, then must retrace their steps in order to find him. The movie stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, Mike Epps, Heather Graham, and Iron Mike Tyson. These comedies (Anchorman, Old School, Wedding Crashers, Superbad, I Love You Man) aren’t for everybody. They are for people with progressive youthful senses of humor. That being said, The Hangover is very very funny. This is Zach Galifianakis’ coming out party. I first saw him do a rendition of Kanye’s Can’t Tell Me Nothing, and then saw him in the Absolut Vodkda commercials. Zach steals the show in this one. I’ve already seen it twice, and did notice that it wasn’t as funny the second time around; plus they show way too many of the good jokes in the trailers. Still, I did notice things the second time around that I missed at first because I was laughing too hard so all in all this is a very good movie if you are a fan of laughing hysterically until you cry. Some call it dumb humor, I call it stupid-dumb hilarity.
I give this movie 4 out of 5 Bo-Ty’s:
With a special Harrison Ford as Dr. Indiana Jones rater for references to the satchel (man purse) he and Zach wear while letting the dogs out.Stay classy Internet,

Blonde Asian
Dolly Parton once said…”I’m not offended by dumb blonde jokes because I know that I’m not dumb. I also know I’m not blonde.” That’s funny. I was walking on Richmond on Friday and a sleazy club promoter smirked at me and said, I like your hair blonde. I replied: I’m a natural blonde. When I was in NY, most people think I am Japanese because I wear my hair light. I am Chinese (Shanghai + HK). What do you think?
full Japanese, not Japanese (Yvonne), 1/2 Japanese (Kimora)
Wikipedia says: the date of the genetic mutation that resulted in blonde hair in Europe has been isolated to about 11,000 years ago during the last ice age. Before then, Europeans mostly had black hair and eyes, which is predominant in the rest of the world.Yay, I want to be a mutant.
Celebs like Eve can change her look all the time, she is truly a style chameleon! Why is she so fabulous! Rapper/singer Eve is one of my favorite style icons. I don’t know what she has been doing lately, but from her last video Tambourine, I can say that I definitely love her blonde the best. But… What about me?
For some people, changing their hair color is an earth shattering experience… for people like me (and Eve!) we love experimenting! I often change my hair color because 1, I participate in hair shows as a hair model. 2, I like to switch it up based on my mood. 3, I sometimes just want to match an outfit or a certain look I am going for! Am I crazy? I don’t know. My hair is not damaged at all, maybe a little dry. I think the blonde me appeals to my Gemini side: fun loving, adventurous and bold. My black hair is more of my Cancer side: emotional, introspective and passionate. I am a cusp, so can I have both? My brown hair many people love the best, it’s… well, kind of typical to me. My red? Like all fashionistas lament, doesn’t last because the vibrancy washes out. Sigh. I am currently blonde.Here is my hair routine: I use Garnier everything.

It’s great to be a blond. With low expectations, it’s very easy to surprise people!
