With Cyclone Dineo, making its final show over my head this weekend, this blog homework topic seemed fitting. Hope it makes for an enjoyable read. @rambo @missy

What are your favorite things to do on a rainy day?

Rainy days are some of my favorite kinds of days. Because I live in an arid, dry country largely made out of desert (Namibia), rain is a...

I love horror (I have a big collection of movies) but I keep myself away from the most disturbing exploitation films like Serbian Film, Martyrs enz. If you're looking for more titles of this kind; 'Salo - 120 days of sodom' and 'Antichrist' are two more of the most shocking exploitation movies. I didn't see any of them, but they are very famous in that genre.

A big NOPE on the movies, but love the shower on the balcony and the rain stories. I cant watch the disturbing stuff. Hell, even scenes from Requim for a Dream bothered me and thats pretty tame. A good memory, active imagination stop me from watching them.....

Many people have asked, and most people don't know. Where is Namibia? What is it like there? What are you doing there? How was it to grow up there? I was considering doing the "Hometown" Blog homework, but to be honest, my hometown is not half as interesting as just a blog on my Country in general - So here it goes. This might become...

So cool!  Lol, when I first saw Namibia on the where your from part of your SG profile I thought it was made up like how lots of other girls say "Neverland" or what have you on there location since you rarely ever hear of white people from Africa.  That desert beach looks so beautiful!

This is my first but most definitely not my last Blog Homework. I chose an old topic, because there are so many good topics on the list. @rambo @missy @lyxzen

Haters are those that feel the need to put others down, instead of raising them up. They criticize and judge instead of accepting, understanding and encouraging. Everyone deals with haters at some point in their...

I hear you dear.  Patience and tolerance is important.  It is hard for some to see the positive in anything.  Every person has a unique story, and reasons for their behavior.  Sometimes you need to turn it off because you can't help.  But always keep an open mind about people and don't judge and label to the best of our ability.  Ask questions.  Be curious.  Learn.  That is the part of life that is fun for me, i like helping others, makes me think about myself less...

Every person is unique and should be treated with respect. Nobody is perfect and no I will not end by saying I am nobody ;-) Thank you for sharing this beautiful lady <3

There is a 5th dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension that is as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition and it lies between the pit of mans fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area...

Rod was a man of exceptional intelligence and a very fine fellow. His work inspired a similar show, The Outer Limits, which I did not fall in love with but at least the first season of the 1995 remake of that show was excellent. I think his influence is still being felt.
dashwood_one:
It's a show, that, even if you have never seen it - you will know it. It is so deeply ingrained in popular culture that people know the iconic theme music. Rod Serling has been parodied in so many different shows, that he's familiar, even if you don't know his name. Then there are the episodes: once seen, never forgotten, and I don't mean that lightly. Everyone knows 'The one with the gremlin on the airliner'; 'The one with the book lover'; 'The one with the old lady attacked by aliens'; 'The one with the doctors and nurses with crooked faces'; 'The one with the alien cookbook' Of course, those aren't the proper titles, but a pub conversation will bring up such names. The show was probably too grown up in tone for a lot of the audience - despite the aliens, and monsters, and magic, serious themes were played out, week by week; it could be lighthearted, funny, and dark, so very dark in places, and often cruel. Night Gallery is almost as good, but even darker. Joseph Stefano's 'The Outer Limits' is geared more to outrageous monsters (usually realised, and portrayed by the genius effects man, Janos Prohaska), but again, dealt with serious issues. Some of the episodes are still terrifying today; 'The Architects Of Fear', 'The Sixth Finger', 'The Hundred Days Of The Dragon'; all will chill you today.  These shows are a bit too dark for a binge watch, though, in my opinion.

There are billions of people in the world and they all come to certain conclusions throughout their lives. Most of the people will come to the same conclusions as everyone else. There are sad realisations and there are happy ones. All realisations should make people change their lives in some shape or form.

Let me give you some examples. When someone comes to the shocking...

@missvness You are so right (sometimes I forgot this, but it is so true). I would want the ad a small thing. You can't change to past, you can only try to change your future <3.

Amazing blog and so many truths in it to. I definitely want memories when I am old and maybe that's why some people call me crazy now
