“While wearing high heeled shoes, a woman’s curves are more pronounced because of the positions of her derriere and chest. She also walks differently, with her hips moving gracefully. High heeled shoes not only make a women look better. She feels sexier wearing them as well. This can be seen in the confidence that is [...]

Commemoration Day 2007
Graduation is such a joyous occasion – even though I did not attend as a graduand, I felt truly happy for my friends who were graduating. So many years of hard work… and finally the day has come. With everybody together in the house, families and all, it’s difficult not to feel the excitement. My [...]
Exuvia
It’s odd… 5.30am, and I’m still fully awake. I’m not sure if it’s those cups of Chinese tea I had, or if it was that latte in the late afternoon. In any case, it’s one of the rarer cases of “I really couldn’t sleep”. Usually plugging into my iPod helps, but not this time.

The final lap
At first I thought I had to DHL (or FedEx, or whichever else has the cheapest, quickest service) my thesis over before the actual deadline. So I pushed myself to complete my report by Friday.

But what I mean by I ‘can’t get out’ is not that.
I have even been [...]
Into the final term
And a long term this will be, stretching all the way until September.
If there was an O-week for projects, this week would be it: research methods training, project reviews and such. After this and the handing in of our proposals next week, we’ll be on our own.
I’ve just met up with my supervisor and my [...]
The next phase begins
So in the paper, I dealt with climate change in the context of international businesses, and the effectiveness of environmental management systems and strategies. Ah yes, and writing up executive summaries for the evaluation of Vodafone’s annual and corporate social responsibility reports.
The guys went to the pub afterwards, whilst some of us girls preferred to [...]
