" POVERTY entails fear and stress and sometimes depression.It means a thousand petty humiliations and hardships...but poverty itself is only romanticized by fools...what I fear most for myself at your age was not poverty but FAILURE.
It is impossible to live without failing of something unless you lived so cautiously or not live at all.In which case,you fail by default. You will never truly know yourself or the strength of your relationships until both had been tested by ADVERSITY. LIFE is not a checklist of acquisition or achievements...LIFE is difficult and complicated and beyond anyone's control. We don't need magic to make a change because the magic is already in our minds. [NOTES I've made from J.K ROWLING's SPEECH at HARVARD COMMENCEMENT]

“Women are a balancing act"
Don’t eat too much, don’t eat too little. Don’t be fat, don’t be too skinny. God do you ever stop eating? Woah do you ever eat? The not-so-well-concealed looks of disgust, the not-so-well-concealed looks of concern. Probably the only porn star I was interested in ever. I have spent a whole night reading anything related to her.As creepy as it sounds,I'm just interested in some one like her such as her line of job,her social struggles,her personal life and how she deals with the challenges of living in a judgmental and rude society.I went on and on until I found some Q&A time she does online.I also happen to have read an article she wrote for New York Times Newspaper and believe me,she was not just a porn star.I started to develop a deep admiration to this woman I randomly saw on a you tube clip.
I grew up more familiar with Miss Universe than Miss World because of the pictures of beautiful ladies in bikinis wearing a sash printed with the name of the country they represent on my brothers' lighters.In all fairness,it helped me memorized mostly Latin countries such as Mexico,Ecuador,Brazil and Puerto Rico because of this beauty pageant.
Anyway,there's no Miss Universe this year,really ODD but well,business wise they have their reason. I actually I don't care that much anymore because I'm looking forward to Miss World this year and the next coming years.What made me favor Miss World over Miss U,I will discuss it later. Meanwhile... Congrats to Miss World's 2014 winner,Rolene Strauss of South Africa!!! #askmirandasings #bestadvise "Be who you are,unless you're HORRIBLE then don't"
Okay,all these beauty queens hail from India.And I'm a huge admirer of Indian beauty! Beauty & Brains
In the history of Miss Universe,(thanks to the internet and it's uploaders,I had the priviledge to watch the old ones).There are two beauty queens that interest me the most.First is Sushmita Sen of India for her wisdom,personality and zest for life. The second one is Oxana Fedorova of Russia because of her achievements.It amused me so much how could a police officer turned beauty queen manage both at the same time? This has never happened before like ever but it seemd that for 2013,most of the crowns for the major beauty pagents were taken HOME.No calamities or floods or even super typhoon or accidents ever stopped us from getting it!

I have always been inspired and empowered by strong women who have stood up for themselves and others.This page is dedicated to all of you.
But I am not into the dark propaganda of some modern feminist have gone into.I admire women as I admire men both uniquely.
Like mother Teresa,I don't want to be part of this feminism politics.I just admire kind and loving women.The strong and the unfazed Archives
