Lady Ga-who?

If you're already quoting the phrase "once you kill a cow you've got to make a burger, Honey B", you're already a convert. But is Lady Gaga the Madonna of today, or is it all just an act?

Just politics

With the impending election it has understandably all got a bit political. And with the media frenzy, we are likely to question our ties with the different parties.

Whilst appreciating having the right to vote, many of us cannot help but feel completely and utterly detatched from the topics of debate and the whole election process itself. Specially by what the politicians are or aren't saying.

Men's socks

Socks and sandals are a definite no no. But should men's socks match their shoes or their trousers? Apparently it is their trousers, as by doing so it is suppose to elongate your leg when the sock is visible.

Intimidating shopping

London has seen hoodies being banned in shopping centres. And with the ongoing debate on burkas, those could be banned too.

But many of us find the shop assistant to be the most intimidating thing about shopping. Particularly when pounced upon as soon as the slightest bit of interest is shown.

You know you best

Do people know you better than you know yourself? Possibly your spouse, partner, family, friends or maybe even your boss have a more subjective view of your personality and behavioural traits.

Don't get frustrated by assumptions made of you, because you can change and know yourself the best.

Neighbourhood community

Long gone are the days of asking your neighbour for a cup of sugar. These days you’re more likely to seek solace in the virtual world. Future forecasts suggest that each of us will on average be part of eight different online communities.

Is your main form of contact with you’re family members already through Farmville?

In pursuit of happiness

Life in general, particularly city life, can sometimes feel like it is working against you. One way to turn this tide in your favour is to be happy. Easier said than done.

At the end of each day think of a few important moments, like someone holding a door for you, or not having to queue at the cashpoint, etc. Together these can add up and help you to be a happier person.
