Words: New song

Inspired by a friend to start singing in public again (And no, she hasn't been declared insane!) I want to perform these words I wrote this afternoon as a song at some point soon...

You know I have habits to break
I have tablets to take
And a whole lot of growing to do

I have running to race
Many demons to face
But your love for me always comes through

My imperfections, they don't mean much to you
You look beyond them
You see what I can be

My morale can be low
And my progress just slow
A frustrating process, you could say

When this journey feels long
Wonder how I'll go on
Your love gets me through another day

My rushed choices, they don't mean much to you
You look beyond them
You see what I can be

My frustrations, they don't mean much to you
You look beyond them
You see what I can be

Career: Ever wanted to know how to succeed as a journalist?

Freelance writer Bim Adewunmi, 28, who’s written in publications such as BlackHair magazine and The Guardian , gives us some tips… Bim in the sun How did you get into journalism? I decided to be a journalist when I was 18. It sounds slightly immodest to say that I was always good at English, but I was – it was my favourite subject through all my school years. I dallied with the idea of pharmacology before coming to my senses – I can only assume I was drunk or high to think that was a good choice – and so alongside my A-Levels in Chemistry, Biology and Psychology, I tacked on an AS-Level in Media.  After a year out spent working and travelling in America, I went to Bournemouth University and did a degree in Multimedia Journalism. It was a great course and I’m really grateful I did it. I learned old-fashioned journalism skills – teeline shorthand, newspaper reporting, the basic rules of writing copy – and also benefited from a great teaching staff of working j...

Life: 2010 - So long, farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, goodbye!

The year has been eventful hasn't it? No Big Brother on channel 4 (but I think The Family has replaced that reality hunger ;o) ), X Factor's growing bigger than ever (thanks Wagner!), Kate and William are giving us a Bank Holiday next year, the economy was a lil' better than last year (but it's still not great), cables released what world leaders really think of each other, parts of the US and UK almost came to a standstill because of the white stuff - snow, that is ;o), Northern Ireland and parts of Yorskhire are without water a man who created a system for guys and girls to rate attractiveness (allegedly) became TIME's person of the year , and we came to learn that 500,000,000 of us use it in an entirely different way as Facebook. So, what did 2010 mean to you? I hope it was a good 'un, the fact that I'm still here to make my dreams a reality is sommat I'm grateful for. If 2010 wasn't your best year so far, make 2011 so. ...

Health: How do you treat a cold?

It's snowing all over the UK, and I have no scientific proof, but weeks after I stopped eating garlic I got this cold - and it's not nice. It's been generally accepted is that garlic helps boost the immune system. I also love honey and lemon.  (Photo from http://en.loadtr.com/Lemon-412529.htm) What works for you? It may help us!
