The Likes of Us - Elsa

Aspirations were not meant for the likes of us
We cannot afford to pay its price
Private schools, elite universities
Legalised gangs and clubs: entry by credit card only.
£20,000 minimum.
This not so simple five letter word brings with it
Problems the likes of us cannot comprehend.
It means seeing beyond the special confines of our lives
Time has taught the likes of us our destiny is to be nothing
Below everyone else only good enough to serve
The likes of us should never read. Why, reading is the same as
Being glued to front of a warm bread filled bakery with an empty stomach
And equally empty pockets.
The likes of us accept our fate not because we want to;
The likes of us accept our fate because once we do we can feel much better.
The likes of us have our dreams stuck in the back of our throats claggy and sticky
Corrupted by fate, circumstance and experience.
Till they are no more than annoying distractions.
The likes of us, like the rest you just want to be happy.

Best Hair Mask In The World

Hi, welcome back to my blog!
I've been playing around with different hair masks for a few weeks now; changing the protein content egg, banana, avocado or a combination. Various oils, binding agents to make a better texture for application to different hair types. This next 'recipe' is in my opinion THE BEST HAIR MASK IN THE WORLD. Hope you like it. Happy Hair Day!! You scroll down to the very short video...

PS: Technically the mixture is edible, but please do not eat it. Taste Vile.

TODAY IS THE DAY I STOP BEING SCARED
TODAY IS THE DAY LIFE CAN DO ITS' WORSE
TODAY IS THE DAY I SAY BRING IT ON
TODAY IS THE DAY.

First Day at Work - Truth

Got lost going to work this morning, my first day.
Got to a roundabout no idea where to go, thinking I'm going to lose this job before I even start.
Fighting back tears I called my recruitment agent and he drove me there (ashamed is the word)
Hope I haven't ruined everything

Book Review - Bitten by Kelley Armstrong

Hi and Welcome back to my blog,
Recently finished reading Bitten by Kelley Armstrong, here's my review.
Its a first book in a series about supernatural beings such as werewolves, focuses on a female werewolf called Elena who is trying to escape 'pack' life. Very easy read, but won't change your life.
