Anorexia

Continuing from my last post, I was reading about models Luisel Ramos and her sister Eliana Ramos from Uruguay. Both, aged 20 and 18, died of anorexia, six months apart. Here's a picture of Luisel Ramos a few months before her death.
Shocking!

Sticky-thin

So I am back. That was a long hiatus. 

Stick thin took a different meaning when I happened to glance at these photographs. These are images of women who lost their mind while losing their weight. Their brain stopped working but their bulimic anxieties didn't. I hope those who are reading or viewing this are horrified and do not attempt it.  

Doomsday

If you've been following the blog, I am on a holiday. But last night a trip to Bikanerwala, (yes, they have a branch in Auckland, New Zealand), had me stumped. Not stumped as in stumped, stumped. But THE STUMPED that has a 'have-heard-but-still-stumped' feeling. Well, the man at the counter mentioned he read that the world is coming to an end on May 21. That is next month. In six weeks. Harold Camping, the preacher who has predicted the doomsday says that in a flash 2% of the world population will come to an end. Why does it feel that Australia and New Zealand that makes for almost 2% of the world population will come to an end first? (The 2% is my calculation)
