Let's face it we all have really shitty days where everything can act as a trigger of annoyance. The other day I went to my mom's house to spend the evening. I got to the house before she came home from work, so I decided to be nice and clean up for her. When she arrived home she wanted to head up to the market. Now, I originally come from a small town where the big events each year is the parade held on Labour Day and the annual tractor pull. Exciting, huh? Everyone in town knows ...

I've been seeing alot of TV commercials for a new diet pill called Zantrex 3 . Being some one who has battled an eating disorder, I am now counseling those who are currently fighting. Now, I find myself doing some digging and a review on this new fat burner, after hearing its name so many times, and it being a popular...

For a second time in a decade a version of The Scream has been stolen. Another version of the painting was taken from in February 1994, but recovered three months later. If you were a theif wouldn't you aim a wee-bit higher in you choice? I mean don't get me wrong Edvard Munch's pieces are beautiful.... but they have been stolen before! I can just imagine what was going through the robber's heads when they were performing this art raid... Well since they found the other version...

I am the person who always turns to the back of the magazine to see what my stars say, and the one who is always checking out the books in Barnes and Noble on the subject of astrology. I think it is fun...thought you might get a kick out of this. I am a Libra... what's yours? Pick-up lines by the Signs Aries I'm on fire. Can I run through your sprinkler? Taurus I just had to come talk with you. Sweetness is my weakness. Gemini Do you have any overdue library books? 'Ca...

Looking down at the limbs of prime means of transport (aka. my legs), I had noticed a trip to the salon was needed soon for, once again, another 30 mins of leg rippin', knee-slappin' fun! Now, I dread this.... no it is not fun having a conversation where everyother word is interrupted by: Jesus Christ! . You'd think I'd be in church. Having nothing else better to do yesterday evening I decied not to call the psudeo-sado-masochist of the hair removal field and do it myself. Besides I ...

So what is it behind Dutch Ambition? It didn't even take 5 blogs to allow this question to be asked. Well Cozzy to answer your question simply.... Although I am part Dutch (along with Swedish & English), it really doesn't have much to do with that. So where does it all start? Well for almost eight years I have been friends/involved on and off with someone in the Netherlands. Since I was 18 I have always tried to get over there to see him. From working 2 jobs I absolutely hated ...

This past summer I worked at an all girls camp as a costume designer in beautiful, moose-filled Maine, for 7 weeks as a break from my current job. Being a bunk counselor I had been re-introduced into the all the latest teen news and pop-culture. The age-group I was in charge of was 13-14 years old, and out of boredom, and a craving to read, I would flip through some of the "Teeny Bopper" magazines lying around the bunk. At 13 and 14 I was not into "Bop", "Teen Beat", or what-have-you, I ha...

Surfing the net after graduation to see who got married, had a couple of kids, or landed into success with both feet in the pot I found myself at a matchmaking site. I know, I know a matchmaking site.... I even shake my head at those things, but if I wanted the results to the quiz I took (shakes head) filling out a profile was mandatory. Yes, I wanted to know what star sign I was most compatible with... you have to admit those little time waster quizzes can be fun. Anywho... back to wha...

I am not a stranger to the world of blogging... I have been here before... so I think? Yeah, I know so. I always hate the introduction to something new. Well for example I could compare this journal to a new pair of jeans. You try them on in the store, examine yourself to see what qualities look good, and if everything checks out you don't seem to mind dropping half a months rent for the sake of vanity. Then after the next laundry day you won't touch them again because it makes your but...
