30.Day Blogging Challenge--Fun Fact Friday!
On this day in 1875, "Professor Tidwissel's Burglar Alarm" was featured in the New York Daily Graphic and became the first comic strip to appear in a newspaper. Do you have a favorite comic strip, online comic, or cartoon character? What makes that appealing to you?

Oh really? Well, that is really fan fact. When I was kiddo my favorite one was Zagor  . Zagor is Italian comic book from 1961. and it has been very much popular in my country and ex Yugoslavia overall. I think that my cousin still have all of his comics, he has a huge collection. I didn't read it forever because somehow I'm not into it anymore. When I was in Florida, in the Merrit Square Mall they have Books of a Million   and I was usually buying stuff there. They didn't have Zagor though but I have found 'Marvel Comics Book' and I bought for him. It contained world famous comic books heroes all in one book, so it's pretty exciting.
I think that every since we were little we kind of got attached to Batman, Spiderman, Hulk etc. and I remember how impatiently I was waiting to see Batman TV Series 1966-1968   on the TV. That is kind of my first meeting with Batman and I was totally in love with the guy. Well, who wouldn't? *Rolling* Deductive skills, inexhaustible wealth, great looking, single, batmobile. Right? Though his appearance changed during the years and seems like he's becoming more powerful than this guy who in such obvious way wore panties over his suit. When you see Dark Knight   you will notice that Marvel removed the fact of wearing panties over his suit. It's still confusing how he's gonna pee during the set but... *Think* he looks fabulous. I like him because he seems realistic. He is just regular wealthy man who has abilities of superhero and he doesn't fight against some fantasy creatures, he's just fighting against crime in Gotham City where he lives. That's the most reasonable fact to like him. And plus when you see Christian Bale in this role you can only drool *Inlove2*. Nowadays I got little bit into Deadpool   because he is too funny and I can't wait to see Deadpool 2016.   but yeah.. Batman for sure is one of my favorites out of favorites. On the side note I think that Christian Bale is one of the most attractive and the most handsome men on Earth and the role in Dark Knight and Dark Knight Rises was perfect for him. I still sometimes watch the trilogy, I have it on my laptop and..... drool.. *Laugh*

30.Day Blogging Challenge--"A man knows better than he hopes." What do you think about that?

I was thinking about this quote a whole day and that is the only reason why I'm writing this blog entry late. I like certain quotes, depend of the mood I'm in and situation, some of them have been very well said with some dose of ingenuity the others are just...not so smart. *Laugh* I have to say Fivesixer that you caught me up in here because I have no idea what the writer wanted to say with this quote. On the side note, if the writer wanted to say what is this all about then he wouldn't write it down probably. *Laugh* Anyway, lets get serious here.
You know that feeling when you do something wrong and you need to stand in front of your parents so you can hear them saying I told you so or we're your parents and we know what's the best for you and bla bla talk that you listen annoyed. *Irritated* Later on, when you get older and when you get your own kids you realize that they were right in, if not all then most of the cases. Don't ever overestimate the elders. Since the pristine the elders were respected in the society and environment they live. You remember movies about Indians and their tribes, their smart chieftain who always had some wisdom to share. So, as a man grow old his brain absorb a lot during his life, producing and learning things from every field. I can't say that today's teenagers are stupid because I was a teenager once and I was stupid as well most of the time, but that actually is not stupidness, man is just in the faze of learning and like that he needs to go through every sphere to get to the highest level of his existence. I'm complicating this prompt already I know that's how I am *Laugh*, the point is that if you belong to the group age where you're capable to take care about yourself first then only you know what's the best for you and your life because no one walks your path except yourself. You know better than you hope. Yes, the elders are for advice and we should think about it if not accept it completely, but if they give you advice you know it's based on their own life and what they missed or didn't do back then. So, their advice for you would be mostly for their selves but no one can turn back time and fix damage or whatever. I hope you understand what I want to say, it's pretty hard to explain this in English. *Pthb*
Since I like quotes and some of you shared some wisdom here, I wanna share a favorite of mine:

*Burstg* Photographer: “I hope, sir, that I will shoot your picture on your hundredth birthday.” I don’t see why not, young man. You look reasonably fit and healthy. Winston Churchill
*Burstg* Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning. Albert Einstein
*Burstg* Whatever you do in life, surround yourself with smart people who'll argue with you. John Wooden
*Burstg* Life is tough. But it's tougher if you're stupid. John Wayne
*Burstg* Sometimes you find yourself in the middle of nowhere and sometimes, in the middle of nowhere, you find yourself. Unknown

30.Day Blogging Challenge-- War Chest Wednesday!
Do you believe the end of the world will come to pass during your lifetime?

I think they announced the end of the world few times in my lifetime and it never happened. I feel like I'm in this children story, I don't know exact name but, it was about the kid who liked to mock. I've heard the story when I was a child and it goes something like this: there was this village in the middle of the mountain where people lived and having sheep, cows and other animals that gives milk, cheese, eggs etc. necessary to survive. The problem was because the mountain was full of wild animals and wolves so, the citizens had to keep an eye on their sheep otherwise they will be eaten. Anyway, this kid would scream every day wolf, wolf, help me and when the others gathered to help him there was no any wolf and he would start to laugh saying that he was just joking. When he did it two more times people saw that there's no point to run to him anymore because they were just wasting time. One day wolf really showed up and he was screaming help me, wolf is here, wolf, wolf but no one came because they thought he is still joking. Wolf of course ate his sheep and I can't really remember if he ate the kid as well. If he is then probably this would be Grimm's story. This is the only thing I remember about it really.
The same is with the end of the world. I think that some people announced it at 2000. and I was getting into highschool then. I remember one of my friend saying shit, it's the end of the world and I'm still a virgin *Laugh*. We were all waiting for it and it didn't come of course. I woke up in the morning and just went to school. *Bigsmile* Can you imagine what other people got their selves into if they believed the end is coming?? Hmm..and just to wake up in the morning to realize that everything is a big joke. *Bigsmile*. Second time it happened the same and I'm not quite believer in such things. I mean, I know that one day it will come and no one for sure don't know when. I just feel like in this story that I said above, people can joke about it but once when it really comes no one will be ready for it. It's not that we will have another flood like in the story of Noah, this time will be serious and no survivors. I'm not too much religious person, I'm one of those who believe and pray within my heart, I believe in God yes, and I do respect everyone's opinion about it, you've got to respect everyone's religion as well. That's what my parents taught me and my religion-school. I have read more religious stuff when I was younger more than now. I can't say anything from the science side because I'm not too much into it and I can't share my opinion about something that I know almost nothing about. However, things that I learned within religion, those that I still remember about the end of the world they were saying that once when brother don't recognize his brother, when the sun comes up from the west and not from east, when a women start to look like a men and a men start to look like a women, when everything turns upside down know that the end of the world is coming. Judging from that point I guess we're pretty close then but we still don't know for sure. Some of the omens already came true according what I have read in Bible, such as--children wont listen to their parents, godless, cheaters, those who respect pleasure more than God etc. Kur'an saying the same thing about apocalypse. Bible says that the end of the world will come just suddenly, like labor of a pregnant woman, Kur'an says that the end of the world will not come as long as on Earth people celebrate God. I have no idea really, I'm not thinking too much about it. Whenever it comes I'm sure no one will be spared. Just do whatever you think it's right to do for this world to be alive as long as possible.

30.Day Blogging Challenge--Talk Tuesday!
I think today we can all use a healthy dose of good news. Share with us a feel-good story...it can be anything from a random act of kindness that happened to you recently, to something that you heard about in your community. Anything you'd like to share to spread a little positivity.

I don't spend too much time watching TV and especially I don't spend time watching any news overall. If my TV is turned on there's always some music, Jamie Oliver cooking or 'Sex and the City' in episodes. Sometimes I catch some old movie that I totally forgot about and I feel happy about it. As my laptop is turned on all day long I'm spending my time on WdC mostly and we all know that in past two-three days we didn't have too much of positivity. Which, again, doesn't mean it wont be some day because you should never loose hope. Hope in better tomorrow never dies. I was pretty sad girl over years because few things that happened made me believe that nothing will be like before and when I totally loose hope I just remind myself that I'm still alive and that I have few people who, kind of, care about me and what I'm doing in my life. One of them is long forgotten friend, my human jacket Michael. I just spoke with him and he said that some guest jumped overboard yesterday on the ship where he's working. My first reaction was people are stupid and when he said that he is still alive because they got him out of the water I again said people are stupid. He said I know. My blinking cursor on my messenger is still blinking and he didn't say a word for over five minutes already. Gosh..I so missed to talk with him because he comforted me before by his silly thoughts and actions. Michael was always like that. When I mention Richard he just say I don't care and move on with another theme. My face was like *Shock* most of the time but he didn't want to talk about it so we had to move on to another theme. That was his way to keep me distracted. I can say that it helped most of the time, I wasn't thinking too much about stuff from the past. And I found someone else to talk about him when I feel that I need to say something. There's a girl that lives in his place and I, kind of, use her for informations but she don't care. There are days when I feel blues and when I need to know how he has been doing because we don't talk anymore. Every kind of access to him is blocked for over two and a half years. But, I still have this girl who is great source. I know how stupid, obsessed I sound but I just need to know if he's alright. I will always care about him and I wouldn't bear if something happen to him. So, last night actually I had one of those blues where I sent longer message asking about him only to open my facebook this morning and to read that--he is doing perfectly fine, he just got another baby.
First time it happened I was mad, sad, happy, I cried..all feelings broke inside of me knowing that he is really happy somewhere in the world without me. I wasn't sad for his happiness because that's what I will always wish for him, I was sad because his happiness had nothing to do with me and it hurt. But when I thought this morning I will break again for some miracle I didn't. Everyone in this world deserve happiness and we all work hard every day for it. And who am I to be selfish about it, he finally found her and I know how long he has been working on it. With every act, dream, pray, with every his smile, kindness she finally smiled him back. The most blessed virtue that one man can posses is ability to be happy about someone when everything else breaks inside of him. Children will always be blessing and reason for happiness and smiles and you cannot feel different about it even if your heart is stone. That's my good news for today. Stupid guy who jumped overboard survived and one more baby has been delivered to make the changes in this mad world.

#0.Day Blogging Challenge--Music Monday! Are you the lead singer type, or are you more content playing in the background along with the rest of the band?

In most of the life situations I don't really feel like a leader so I don't know if I feel like a lead singer in a band as well. When I was at the ship we had parties based on singing. Yes, we had karaoke as well but we had 'Crew Talent Show' or 'Acoustic Night' and so on. Last time when I did Acoustic Night at the ship Sunshine one of my friends from Indonesia, his name is Yayang, asked me to sing with him because he play guitar and I don't. That was the first time I sang in front of the people and I wasn't drunk and it wasn't a joke. *Crazy* For this kind of parties at the ship we were required to sign up month before because we needed to practice. We usually practiced in our staff mess (crew dining area) after 11p.m when we finish the shift because we weren't really allowed to play loud music in our cabins after 10p.m of course because of disturbing. This rule was there but most of the time we didn't follow it. You can just pray that your neighbors are crazy as you are or working the night shift (from 11p.m till the morning hours) so you wouldn't really care about loud music, anyway they weren't there, unless someone for some reason calls the security or even staff captain. Then you're fucked up. *Laugh*. But it was very rare that someone call the security. We have our own crew bars (one on deck 4.forward and the other one is on deck 0. mid ship) where the music could be played until 1:30 a.m every night but sometimes we liked to have cabin-parties. So, as I mentioned, we usually did practicing in crew dining area because there wasn't any cabins around and it was right next to the crew bar on deck 0. To avoid any accidents where I would choke or something I asked Yayang to sing with me on upcoming Acoustic Night and he accepted since he don't feel embarrassed to sing in front of the people because he was doing it so many times before. He is just casual type of guy and he is funny. We decided to go with Let Her Go, acoustic cover  . This song perfectly suited as it's duet and if something goes wrong we can help each other. But we were fine because it all looked like we're having a campfire and we're singing for fun. I don't have a video of us singing because my phone was with me but Yayang have a video of us practicing in my cabin on his phone. I need to tell him to send it to me and I will upload so you can see it. I have a video though of Yayang and Maribel practicing for the same night which I recorded with my phone but the sound is not so good because the cabin is too small and it sounds bad. If you wanna check it out anyway here it is. Maribel and Yayang singing 'Heaven' by Brian Adams  
When I first met Richard him and his friends had some kind of birthday party at open deck and he was singing R.E.M. "To the One I Love". Richard is an awesome singer, he even did show time parties for our guests and was adored by many. He was the kind of band leader and I always admired to his talent. When we finished shift at night he used to sing to me in our cabin sometimes if he don't feel tired or busy with something else. I so miss those times when we were friends before anything. *Cry*
As I mentioned before, I don't really feel like a leader in most of the life situations because if you're playing this role all eyes are on you and I never wanted to be in the center of someone's attention. I like to be noticed though but not to the point where someone will talk about me for so long because I think I'm not that good. I don't know what others thought about me then, I think I was fine because no one run away when I sang. I even got an applause and became popular for a while in my circle of friends at the ship then. Later on I was required at open deck parties where someone would bring guitar and we would sing until morning hours or until security drive us away for breaking the 11p.m rule. *Smile*

Blog Harbor From The Talent Pond--ICE CREAM!
Any kind of place you'd have ice cream outside of a birthday party. Bonus points if you name the flavor of ice cream that I'm thinking of!

I don't know about you but I ate ice cream in few places around the world and my personally favorite one ever is shaved ice in Key West, Florida. The place is called McDuffy and they have over 80. flavors of ice cream. Key West is my favorite place I've been ever because the island is cute, small but they have a lot of interesting places to visit and to experience it. Along with the key lime pie McDuffy's is something you really need to try if you ever get to Key West. It's like tradition. I'm sorry for making this entry short, I wrote it in pauses, I have some private stuff to do today. I'll just try to guess what's your favorite ice cream. When I was at the ship most of the children loved strawberry flavor with cherry on top and you will be surprised when I tell you that every third American choose to eat Butter Pecan ice cream over other flavors. I'll go with Butter Pecan as the flavor you think of as well and I'll hope that I'm right this time. I just have a feeling that you like it. *Smile*

30.Day Blogging Challenge--Creation Saturday!
I'm gonna make this easy on you today...write whatever you'd like! But...each sentence must contain at least one emoticon (and after this week you've got so many more to choose from). I won't put a minimum line count on this...it's harder than it looks.

I feel like *Cry*ing today. I've got inflammation of legs from yesterday's walking around the *City*'s wall. Anyway, the day was awesome because it was little bit *Clouds*ie and we had a strong wind. We went to visit Dubrovnik and *Castle* where they filmed G.O.T. I'll *Writing* about it more in my "Invalid Item. Sometimes I think that I *Plane* more than I *Pencil*. I usually take a lot of photos with my *Cellphone* or *Camera* and I store everything to my *Laptop*. I'm *InLove2* with photograph because if I don't take pics I would just forget the places and what was important about it because I've seen so many of them and it's all, kind of, messed up in my head. I know I said this so many times but while I was at the *Boat* I really didn't have enough *Clock2* for myself. If I get out at some port I would need to go for shopping because I always missed stuff for my hair, I used to spend more *Dollar*s than I needed and there was no time for anything else. When I come back to the *Boat* I had to go to *Sleep* otherwise I would feel like shit at work. If we had nice port with nice *Beach* I would go out and in one hour I used to take 100. of pics so I can remember why that day was important and later on I can *Writing* about it. If I don't take photos with *Camera* every *Beach* was just a *Beach* without memories. For example, when I was in *CountryJM* I don't remember too much about it because I didn't take any pics then. The only thing about *Countryjm* I remember was the pregnancy test that I bought in a drug store and few hours later I found out I'm expecting a *Babygirl*. That was hard period of my life that I don't really like to *Thought2* about. Anyway, I found it hard to *Writing* prompt using emoticons in every sentence so, I'll just *Stop* now. I have a lot of things to finish in here before the deadlines and I feel little bit like *Headbang* and *Meh*

Blog Harbor From Talent Pond--PINATAS! Any kind of place you'd find a pinata, other than a birthday party. Bonus points if you name the pinata shape/form that I'm thinking about!

*Laugh*, I have no idea what kind of pinata you're thinking about Jeff but if you're Mexican and I doubt that you are, maybe you would think of Donald Trump-shape pinatas. I'm not American but I see so many news around the internet and the TV about Mr.Trump as a candidate for USA president. Ever since he spoke against Mexicans and other non-american people that live in USA today (including his Slovenian wife as well) his pinatas became smash hit. A Mexican who lives in USA came up with this idea when his regular party pinatas didn't sell good enough. He says that Trump's pinatas has been sold in a day for the prize of $40. Great kick-ass idea. It's like a legal voodoo doll. *Laugh* However, since your portfolio contains some erotica stories and you're doing erotica newsletter maybe you think of some sexy pinatas. Though I don't know what shape it could be. I'm positive sure that you don't want to beat the penis shape pinata and most likely you wouldn't beat female pinata as well. Since this is WdC 15th anniversary pinata shape that you're thinking about is number 15. Is it?? *Rolleyes* Cake with number 15.on it?? *Delight*
Pinatas are for the party and these prompts are getting harder and harder. So, let me think..pinatas serves to beat the shit out of it and they comes in all kind of shapes. The only thing I'm thinking now is voodoo dolls because they have the same purpose as party pinatas- you're killing it. So, pinatas that are not for the regular parties but for the private party you can find in someone's locker or drawer and pray that it don't look like you. *Laugh*

30. Day Blogging Challenge--Fun Fact Friday!
On this day in 1888, George Eastman registered the name "Kodak" and patented his roll-film camera. The camera took 100 exposures per roll.
Are you the designated picture-taker in your family? How have the technological advances in digital photography changed the way you look at taking pictures?

I still remember those little cameras where you had to buy a roll (today's memory card) and insert it in. If you buy a roll and you have 100. spaces for photograph per roll you couldn't delete photograph you don't like to make space for another one like on today's memory cards, you just had to deal with it and once when you go to get the pictures you simply had to tell which one you don't want to see in your photo album. Wow!! You made me go to look through my long forgotten photo albums hidden in the boxes. I laughed so hard at some of them. I even found my diary that I wrote when I was in 5th grade. *Rolleyes* Anyway, when I was a kid, maybe 6. years old we used to play outside actually, like all those people who were born at 80's and bellow. We had a guy who had that Kodak camera and he was the only one in our neighborhood with it. Every time we were playing on the street he used to pass by in his wheelchair and asking if we would like to have picture. I know that we were excited every time and we always run to our Mom to ask if she will pay to him for the picture. They were, kind of, expensive back then but she never said no. I have sooo many pics of me and my friends when we were kids. And I looked so funny in all of them because I was yellow and fat. *Laugh* My Mom says that all her friends wanted to kiss and to cuddle me because I had fat cheeks but she never let them kiss me. They could cuddle me but they didn't kiss me on the cheeks. I guess that was in common because today when I see small children I feel adorable need to cuddle them and to hold them but I never kissed anyone's baby. I just hug them. *Babyboy* Anyway, back to cameras, I really love the fact that I have photographs from some important parts of my childhood because now when I'm watching them I can remember through the fog how and when it happened. I'm sharing with you picture of baby-me that I have found. *Laugh*

You probably wonder how this yellow, fat little girl grew up into uhmmm...swan? *Rolleyes* *Laugh*
Invalid Photo #1041857


I don't picture myself nowadays, it's very rare trust me. I have seen some beautiful places and I took thousand of pictures that I have in my own private album in my laptop but in most of them you wouldn't see me. I feel such rejection for all selfies I see on my facebook page in every moment. I mean, what the hell are you doing in your life? I have some friends who are at home at Sundays putting make up and nice dresses for hours just to take a selfie and post it on facebook. *Facepalm* I mean.. at Sundays you have to force me to wear even a bra. *Laugh*I remember one time when I posted a picture of one private beach where the water was the lightest blue and the sky was just for one hue darker, it was perfect picture but there was no me in it. I've got 3.likes. The other picture that was similar to one that I took, the lightest blue water at the white sand beach got 100.likes and the person who shared it wasn't even at this place. Ever. I was like WTF and totally gave up on that stupid thing called facebook. Very rare I share my photograph there now. Anyway, I'l show you what I'm talking about here. This was just one ordinary day at the private island:


As for those nonsense called 100. selfies in a day, I only have one thing to say:

30. Day Blogging Challenge--Wednesday is usually "War Chest Wednesday". But I'm really tired of war. Shoot some flowers out of your cannon. What does "peace" mean to you?

You mean like peace *Peace2* or peace *Peace*? I feel like I'm Miss of the World   when they're asking me what I wish now when I got the crown! *Laugh* I wish someone to get me a coctail... and world peace!! Alright, if we're talking about regular peace, like the one after the war I could really talk a lot about it because I've survived one. Even though I was a child I still remember certain scenes and situations, for example how my mom used to come to pick me up from school on the first sounds of grenades and that woman on the street who has been shot in leg and lying in the middle of the war zone begging for someone to help her because she couldn't walk and how all the bottles of the water were all around the place and she has been probably waiting an hours to get them because almost no one had drinking water in apartments then. People used to go above the town to sip it at some natural springs or something. I don't really remember what happened to her, this picture stayed in my head like that because I saw it on the news. It was really terrible. In that period of three years during the war a lot of things happened, for example the house across the street has been hit with grenade twice, first time when I was looking through the window and was soooo lucky because it didn't explode. If it did I wouldn't be here today probably. Anyway, we the kids tried to still have some fun in all that mess and that's when we invented this game. It calls Chasing grenade. There were days when they were falling constantly and we couldn't get out of the basements but when it gets quiet we used to get out on the streets and listening to the elders about where they fell we split in the group and running to those places. The point was to collect as much as shrapnel as we can. I had a huge collection of all sizes that my mom threw away when the things got little bit better. I can't say that peace after the war made it better but at least I don't live in fear of dying every day. *Smile*
To answer your prompt here what does the peace mean to me, it means no people and no any kind of sounds around. The other day I shared the word EXULANSIS which means the tendency to give up trying to talk about an experience because people are unable to relate to it. I'm talking about my ship's experience here. The ships I've been on carried around 3000. guests and at least 950. crew members. Can you imagine to live in that environment for 8. months in a year? It's like you live in New York and every day when you go to work you're late because of traffic only I wasn't late but bloody elevators at the ship were constantly full of all kind of people. Where's the restroom? Where's the food? Where's the kids club? Where's the pool? Where's the medical center? Where are you from? How long have you been working at the ship? Can you get me a glass of the water? You're pretty, wanna hang out some time? I've never heard of Bosnia, where's that? Why do you think that I want to go out of the ship, I payed the cruise to stay on it? You're writer? Tell me about it.. thousands of these kind of questions I've been asked every single day and totally went nuts when one woman called me a fucking asshole because she has been late for breakfast and I closed the line 15.minutes before she came. People sucks. I'm not morning person as well but I don't go around calling someone who I see first and the last time in my life a fucking asshole. All I wanted is to curl up in my cabin and stay like that forever. Of course I couldn't first because I still had to go back to work and second because I had a roommate..or two, it depend if her boyfriend step by sometimes and stay there overnight. Ugh...EXULANSIS, no one who has never been through these things will never understand. Whatever I write is nothing to compare what I have in my head. Even this casual blog entries I have to write in total PEACE with only sound of the keyboard. I even don't listen too much of music anymore. Yes, I'm that crazy. *Jamming**Crazy*

Blog Harbor From Talent Pond--You can go either singular or plural with this one... things like water balloons or the 'Balloon' typeface are both acceptable.

In some stage of woman's life there comes the time when she is not satisfy with her body. Some women get extremely serious about it while for the others this is just a faze. It usually hit the teenage girls and keep them like that until they find a first boyfriend but dissatisfaction is coming back all over again when they get pregnant because their body enters into different dimension which is, by the way, totally unclear for men. Don't make me explain it because it's not clear for us as well. That's just the body entering in different faze and trying to adjust. I think that women will always long for perfection of human body because, if you're religious you've heard the story of Adam and Eve, and Eve was the first woman in the world. She has been created out of Adam's rib. In theory, that way a woman will always be close to man's heart. If you're not a believer your story of first origin is little bit different. Everything starts long time ago, thousands of years ago in Africa is found first homo sapiens man-monkey. And the evolution started. From the very first starts women were trying to be unique and different, attractive to man. That's when you heard the story how Eve made Adam to eat forbidden fruits and both of them were punished by life on the Earth and she has been punished with monthly bleeding for her sin. That's the story I've been told. What's yours excuse? But that longing for attraction, even she knows it was something she is not suppose to use against someone is in her roots. Our roots. And all women around the globe are using it as their weapon today. When you're angry and when you're screaming at her she will eventually start to cry until you feel sorry that you even said anything, right? That's one of the weapons she uses against you. Tears. When you go outside and hang out with your friends in the club you see very attractive woman, nice dress, makeup. That's also one of her weapons. Makeup. I've read the other day story about how a man in Algeria sued his wife first morning after he saw her without makeup because she was totally different and really ugly than the way he knew her. So, you better watch out. All of you single guys, don't be fool about it. Most of the women today go little bit extremely about their look and they use the Nip/Tuck   version to get what they want. That's where water balloons are coming from. You know also that at least 65% of a women in the world tried plastic surgery of some parts of their body and for at least 40% of them credit goes for their boobs. It's such a common and normal thing nowadays that you cannot even notice anymore who is real and who is not. Well, yes there are women who are so obvious about it and the others who are doing plastic surgeries and later on denying they did it. Because of that longing for perfection I mentioned above. However, in some cases when woman gets an implant it can be very useful thing. For example in this scene   when the killer stab this young woman through the heart *Rolling*. At least her implants were useful for a while. Or in this case   *Rolleyes*...hmmm. I wonder... nah..
But there's also one not so pleasant situation that can happen to you if you have an implants. I don't know about you but to reach my final destination in my job I was required to have few international flights all over the world. I'm natural, and yes, I know how funny that sounds but my friend Elina from Estonia is not so natural as she looks like. Young and very attractive lady decided to work little bit more on her already perfect body and she got an implants. They are not so obvious though but she never said that she didn't go under the knife. About the experience from the airplanes she said that sometimes she feel just a little bit of pressure in her chests when the plain goes higher. But for certainly she stayed on ground first 6.months after she got implants. The reason why I'm writing this blog entry is not to spit on women who do Nip/Tuck version of theirselves because I don't really care how anyone looks like. The reason of this blog entry is to say that a man is beautiful the way he is created. He/she is beautiful for all the differences that she posses and where you cannot find anywhere else in the world. The fact that every single man in the world has different fingerprints is mind blowing same as the fact that every single man in the world has different construction of retina in their eye balls. At the end, why would anyone want to be like someone else? Why can't you just be you because you're already awesome?
*Exclaimr*I'm sharing this awesome and bloody story that happened (maybe) to a woman who sat on a plain in first few days after she got an implants. The content comes with warning and don't click if you can't handle it. Otherwise, it's just another way to die out of water balloon prank. *Smile*

30. Day Blogging Challenge--Talk Tuesday!
Today's prompt is simple...Take a look at everyone who is taking part in this month's challenge. Pick one member, go into their portfolio, and review one of their items in your entry. Then, suggest an item of your own you'd like to see reviewed.

The other night while we were in chat here, we talked about poetry and styles overall and Charlie ~ said that he wrote poem a while ago that was inspired by the conversation we had. I have no idea what was it all about, I mean, we had so many conversations but this practical one I don't really remember. We talked about it though but today, since you mentioned, I wanted to give review for "Invalid Entry. I think it's sometimes sad that people around us are aware of our life more than ourselves. It's probably not so bad when those who are close to you offering you advice and support when something happens but those lonely-laced nights can be a real nightmare. Here is the review of Charlie's poem Review of "Fragments of Being"
Anyway, I didn't write too much poetry in the past months but I have wrote recently one poem that I'm really in love.
Here's the link to it:
 Invalid Item 
This item number is not valid.
#2055161 by Not Available.

I guess that all my poems are mostly related to one person that is not here anymore. And I know there are million reasons why we should love someone and we just can't but there are million and one reason why we shouldn't love someone but we still do. With all our heart. That's the way I always felt about him. As for the poetry overall, I think that best poetry is written when man is in love, doesn't matter in what or in who. It could be a person, a flower or a demon it will still have the same effect.

Blog Harbor From The Talent Pond--Cake. Everybody loves cake, right? And just to prove it, you need to write a blog entry about a type of cake that isn't the kind you eat. Perhaps you're a fan of Jennifer Aniston's 2014 film Cake. Or maybe Cake, the alt rock back from Sacramento, is more your thing. Then again, maybe you're particularly interested in The Cheesecake Factory and its NASDAQ ticker symbol (CAKE), the plot element in the video game Portal (is it a lie?), the type of firework, or even a urinal cake *Sick*. Wherever your interests lead you, tell me a little about a type of cake that doesn't get served at a party!

I didn't see the movie of Jennifer Aniston, I think I saw only one movie where she was acting, 'We are the Millers', and not counting 'Friends.' I'm not a huge fan of her but I will never forget that cheesecake episode   *Laugh*. Anyway, the cake that doesn't get served at the party is the cake we used to make as kids. Well, it was served at the party for kids but we didn't eat it of course. It was made out of different colors of plasticine. It looked like the one you can find in those 'candy' games on facebook and I have no idea how we resisted to not eat it. When I was at elementary school my mother bought for me one pack of colorful erasers that had some kind of candy smell. Even today she doesn't know that I was secretly eating it. *Laugh* Of course not in large quantities but almost every day I had small portion *Sick*. Though, they wasn't delicious as they smelled I was suggesting to the other kids to get the same erasers and we ate them together. Ugh... I'm so glad I got over that period. I am vegetarian today. *Laugh*
