Question Time

       Every weekend I will have a blog  post where I ask and answer questions.  It is  a good way for readers to get to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions.  What song are you listening to over and over these days?  Recently I saw the video of the song 'Overcomer' by Mandisa on Jamerican Spice's Blog.  The lyrics are great and so helpful for me at this time. 

     As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by Create With Joy where the theme this week is Back To School.  Would you like to go 'Back To School' to pursue a degree or some enrichment classes?  It would be interesting pursuing further studies. Recently I have even been thinking of learning Spanish online.  Most schools reopen during the first week of September in Jamaica. I am not a parent but it is a busy and expensive time for parents. For parents, How does it feel to send your children 'Back To School?'  If you have ever returned to school after a long absence, what was the experience like? In Jamaica children wear school uniforms.  Below is a picture of Janine and me in our 6th form uniforms many years ago.

Question Time

      Every weekend I will have a blog post where I ask and answer questions.  It is a good way for readers to get  to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions. What have you been totally fascinated with recently? Looking at 3D Images! My friend Cecile introduced me to them and I thought I would never be able to see the images.  Well, I was determined to figure it out! After advice from my friend and some research I am finally enjoying looking at many of these images.  Cecile  made this one  for me. Can you see the image?

       As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by Create With Joy where the theme this week is Hobbies. What hobbies do you like participating in during your spare time? Reading, listening to the radio, watching music shows and a variety of sports on television, photography and corresponding with pen-pals from around the world. These days I mainly exchange emails with my pals.  What hobbies have you always wanted to learn?  I would like to resume the piano lessons that I stopped a very long time ago and probably learn how to play lawn tennis. Have you ever tried a hobby that wasn't your cup of tea? No, I can't think of any.

Question Time

    Every weekend I will have  a blog post where I ask and answer questions. It is  a good way for readers to get to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions.  Are you a patriotic person who knows a lot about your country's history and geography? I  am patriotic and have some Jamaican souvenirs.   Jamaica celebrated its 51st anniversary of Independence last Tuesday, August 6.  I live in St. Mary, a parish situated in the North Eastern section of the  island.  Our national symbols are as follows :- national fruit - ackee, national flower - lignum vitae, national bird -The Jamaican Streamer Tail Hummingbird and national tree - Blue Mahoe.

   As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by Create With Joy where the theme this week is Birthdays. What's your favourite way to celebrate your birthday?  Birthdays are rather quiet for me since my twin sister's death. We used to go places, have a special lunch and of course at home there would be cake and ice-cream.  Has anyone every planned a surprise party for you?  I have never had a surprise birthday party. We would go somewhere and not have parties.  What is your favourite cake and ice-cream combination? Any cake with icing and Grapenut ice-cream. Share your favourite birthday memory?  My favourite birthday memory was when my twin and I celebrated our 21st birthday in the beautiful parish of Portland,Jamaica. We had a nice meal at the Trident Hotel and it was great to see the birds roaming around. Here are pictures of that special birthday.

Question Time

      Every weekend I will have a blog post where I ask and answer questions.  It is a good way for readers to get  to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions.  At what time of the day do some of your best blogging and freelance writing ideas come to mind?  While they come at different times of the day many come at night time when I am about to fall asleep.  Unfortunately at times I am too tired to get up and write them down and sometimes forget a few by the time I wake up.

    As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by Create With Joy where the theme this week is Summer Fun. Do you prefer to be indoors or outdoors on  a hot summer day? I prefer to be indoors.  At times the heat is unbearable outside.  Pool side or park picnic - which invitation sounds more appealing?  Pool side!  I can't get in the pool  though as I can't swim! :) What summer activity do you dream of the most? Visiting certain areas of Jamaica and seeing nature beating the heat. Earlier this week I got a chance to be in the popular tourist resort of Ocho Rios. I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful flowers and environment. I also did some shopping.
