Beauty & Style - 20 June 2007

Have you noticed the use of what I would call "baby talk" by the younger generations of late? I've almost gotten used to younger people saying "my mom" or "my dad" to coworkers or even strangers instead of "my mother" or "my father". I've also almost gotten used to the rising intonation (up speak)-- especially in young girls in which they curl up the end of every sentence so that everything they say sounds like a question. But now I'm hearing them refer to their "tummy" and how something was "yummy" in formal settings. My guess is the media and internet contributed a lot to this shift in social setting differentiation. Is it getting worse?

I bought the Venus Vibrance shaver complete with a battery. But I know that shaving with gel and water is ideal for a smooth shave. But what do you use instead of water when it is battery-operated?

I could never figure out what the backwards button at the button of dress shirts was for.

I have completely recovered from anorexia. It took over my life a few years ago. It's the single most important defeat of my entire life - so far. I really want to put something on my body that reminds me of what I was able to overcome. I am very lucky, must people cannot beat an eating disorder. I want the tattoo to be something people ask about so I can talk about it and let people know that I hit a brick wall in my life but was able to climb over it. If I can help one person with my story then it's totally worth it.

Obviously think of it having a tattoo ink design, and not looking cartoonish. Also it would be located on my back close to my neck.
