Jus hollerin ...
So dis morning .... ah ketch ah vaps .... and decide .... dat is high time .... dat ah touch down .... on dis here blog ....
cuz yeah .... it's been way too long ....
However .... since my last post .... not ah shit has happened wit me .... so I eh really have nuttin tuh say ....
Den .... on top ah dat .... ah still doh have no scanner .... so ah cyah scan nuttin from de newspapers .... and .... wit all de SoE and curfew crap .... I doh be nowhere .... so I eh seeing nuttin tuh take pictures of .... and ..... I been crazy busy .... making crazy ting .... while trying tuh complete ah crazy order too .... involving close tuh 300 paper beads .... and if yuh ever make a bead outta paper .... yuh will appreciate how crazy it is .... tuh try tuh make nearly 300 of dem ..... especially when yuh have tuh colour-out yuh design on each piece ah paper!!!
Anyway .... as ah say .... a jus logon tuh holler .... tuh say dat ah still here .... oh ..... and tuh say .... BIG UP tuh Cropperino (one of my readers who I recently met) .... de lime in UpMarket was nice 
But wait .... as ah mention UpMarket ....
Ah tink yuh know by now ..... dat I make jewellery .... and every month .... I tote my jewellery to a sale called UpMarket (check it out on Facebook) ....
So last month .... I dey on meh chair .... chillin .... while de jewellery displayin .... fuh people passin .... when up trots dis lady .... who exclaims .... "Oh my Gosh - look at these earrings - they're so in style now" .... so me now .... not one tuh follow fads or 'in style' shit .... I ask her exactly what it is dat ..... in style .... and ..... wit ah kinda puzzled look on her face ..... as if tuh say EH? ..... she say ..... these earrings .... these long dangling earrings .... haven't you been watching Project Runway .... Anya Ayoung Chee wears earrings like these ....
Well shiver me timbers!!!
Apparently .... because of Anya Ayoung Chee .... my jewellery became IN STYLE!
Cuz guess what .... other customers said de same ting too ....
Made me realise how many people was watchin dat show .... and what an impact Anya was having .....
So BIG UP yuh know .... big up tuh Anya .... cuz HELLO .... when people start associatin yuh name .... wit ah trend ..... YUH REACH ..... and when people start associatin ah hot designer like Anya Ayoung Chee wit yuh product ..... YUH REACH
Right .... so da'is dat .... bote ah we reach ....
Now on tuh some pics dat ah take last week .... while journeying through Couva .... it was my second time tuh Couva .... so of course ah was lil never-see-come-see .... and had tuh pull out de camera ..... altho ..... there was one missed photo op ..... yeah ..... de boat building ..... yep ..... there's a building in Couva that looks like a big-ass ship ....
Now I struggled over whether tuh post dis pic eh .... cuz after all .... it is somebody's house .... but then I thought to myself .... what da heck .... wit ah design like dat ..... these people clearly want this house tuh be seen .... so NO .... is not Mickey Mouse house ..... is not Magic Kingdom in Disney .... this palatialness is really in Couva .... and it actually belongs to an always impeccably dressed .... always well coifed .... very vocal ..... almost pretty ..... kinda prominent ..... Trini man of God .... ah givin yuh one guess!
Hmmmm .... a dog hotel .... nice .... but is there really a market for this type of service in Central .... and whoa ..... is that the actual Dog Hotel .... cuz it look lil 'ruff' ....
There I was .... trying my best tuh order some food at the Double Dragon Restaurant .... when dat hit meh .... yep .... ah chinese food restaurant .... sellin pens .... erasers .... AND liquid paper .... oh .... and tuh bring everything into perspective .... yuh could also get chopsticks ....
But why 2 pens .... why 3 erasers .... why not ah pen .... or ... ah eraser?
Wait a minute ... what am I saying .... the real question is .... WHAT ABOUT PENCILS?
If it nice .... do it twice .... ah likin de colour combos .... and de letterin .... and de nut of coco ....
PS: Remember tuh watch Project Runway Thursday night ..... ah feelin' ah Anya win!
Yuh know the boat-shaped restaurant belongs to the same "man-of-God" with his fairytale castle? Using the congregation's money to fund his folly.

'Scene, that house is one fugly version of a wannabe Cinderella's castle (part of my job description to have court clothes!!) ..... it's not the actual dog hotel, the very enterprising owner has several signs up in the area surrounding the hotel....and if yuh really want a pic of the boat shaped building I work only 5 minutes away from it.....leh mih kno....

I don't know about the pencils but the liquid paper looks suspect. They had to scratch out the last letter, not liquid paper it out.

scene...sorchaangel right, dat house fugly but you can't help but look at it when you pass, i did really see the boat eh but ah didn't know wat it was...anyway of u find the boat and the hose is something else you should see the church itself complete with crown and all. The one thing that puzzle me though it although the building spacious the bathrooms have some narrow, narrow passages to get to them...i guess they forgot about bathrooms and added them as an after thought, next time u in central visit waterloo, have plenty to see there...
