This has been in my mind recently. It's amazing how things have changed of late. I moved to England when I was 7 years old. My mom lived here and so it was a reunion type thing she'd been working on for a while. England was meant to be a better life and I guess …

Don’t doubt yourself
I thought I was a pretty self confident person. I know what I like, I know who I like and I have an opinion on everything. I used to want to be a lawyer because I was so good at arguing, especially when I thought I was right. So you would think that I never …

And when you type in professional hairstyles you get pictures of white women with their hairstyles (although Zoe Saldana, Hallie Berry and a …
Challenge completed!
One of my goals for my gap year was to get fitter. I wanted to go to the gym, swim and become rock hard and toned. I also wanted to become more flexible and to re visit my martial arts so that I could do it again in the future. Having that in mind I …
