I received the image on my Blackberry.

One of my favorite looks at the Oscars 2010 was Demi Moore who looked absolutely stunning in her ruffled silk organza gown from Atelier Versace. Can you believe she’s 48? I also loved Jennifer Lopez who chose an pink silk organza gown from Armani Prive’s which I liked because it looked like a tulip to me. Lopez finished off the look with Cartier jewels and Salvatore Ferragamo satin heels. I liked a few more but let’s see what you think?

Professional staff are employed by KACCH to provide psychosocial support for children and their families in hospital. Play opportunities are provided in attractively decorated paediatric wards and other areas of the hospital where children are treated. Through specialised play techniques, children in hospital are helped to understand their medical conditions and treatment procedures, encouraged to express their feelings, cope with painful procedures and continue their normal development. Research has shown that when children are given this kind of support in hospital, their stress levels are reduced, they respond better to treatments and they have fewer complications.

I have seen it, I have seen their angelic touches in our hospitals here in Kuwait. How they decorated the pediatric wards with cute hand made crafts and when they visit the children to play with them and read to them to distract them from all the screaming going on in the ward and the wires and the medications they’re receiving. Their role is very important, just as important as the nurses role, well, at least in government hospitals we only have a few nurses that are truly angelic to children and not scaring them off. Especially with all that pressure going on there and all that chaos in some or let’s say (most) of the governmental hospitals.

I received this yesterday:

If You Love Navy & White, Try Fun Brights!
Crisp and preppy, this nautical duo holds a place in the hearts of tradionalists and those who like clean and simple hues. Both are bold and graphic alone or combined and look best paired with eye-catching brights like kelly green, citron, fuchsia and purple. These tones work so well because they’re vibrant and, being blue-based, are derived from the same color family as navy itself.

If You Love Stone & Gray, Try Subdued Pastels
Worn in an unbroken streak from head to toe, these two tones can seem flat and chilly. And while pastels may strike you as way too sweet, tossing them in the mix creates a fashion alchemy that’s as sophisticated as it is romantic. Enhance the neutrals you already own by selecting pretty but muted shades such as blush, lavender, sky peach or even a washed indigo.

A woman would normally do what I like to call: “the punishing act”: She’ll ignore him and act all weird and quiet, expecting he would read her mind and know exactly what to say or do next. This act is completely pointless.

I came to a conclusion that men DO NOT think the way we do. The simply don’t. A man would usually treat you as though nothing happened because maybe they hate arguments (which is the worst sort of conversation) and long discussions about what bothers you and what makes you happy (because it’s obvious already). Call them “cowards” if you want to but men usually hate confrontations.

I could go on and on talking about all those endless misunderstanding. The thing is, if you’re a man or a woman: If you are upset about something you should talk about it openly, at least your partner will be aware of what you’re going through.

Bottom line: Communication really is the key to a good relationship

It is very hard to say the exact truth, even about your own immediate feelings – much harder than to say something fine about them which is not the exact truth. -George Eliot-

On top of that it has the iTunes where you can download movies, pictures, music, games. You can read the newspaper and see the entire page which looks awesome, thanks to the huge screen. Oh and YouTube can be watched on HD which is a really smooth and easy experience..

Take a look

MARTIN BASHIR: Your Royal Highness, how prepared were you for the pressures that came with marrying into the Royal Family?

DIANA: At the age of 19, you always think you’re prepared for everything, and you think you have the knowledge of what’s coming ahead. But although I was daunted at the prospect at the time, I felt I had the support of my husband-to-be.

BASHIR: What were the expectations that you had for married life?

DIANA: I think like any marriage, specially when you’ve had divorced parents like myself, you’d want to try even harder to make it work and you don’t want to fall back into a pattern that you’ve seen happen in your own family. “I want to reassure all those people who have loved me and supported me throughout the last 15 years that I’d never let them down.” I desperately wanted it to work, I desperately loved my husband and I wanted to share everything together, and I thought that we were a very good team.

I watched the interview last night and I realized, every woman can relate to her story. She is the late Princess of Wales, The mother of their future King and she’s simply a woman, just like a lot of women out there who suffer on the same level but in a different environment.

BASHIR: Looking back now, do you feel at all responsible for the difficulties in your marriage?

DIANA: Mmm. I take full responsibility, I take some responsibility that our marriage went the way it did. I’ll take half of it, but I won’t take any more than that, because it takes two to get in this situation.

BASHIR: But you do bear some of the responsibility?

DIANA: Absolutely, we both made mistakes.

BASHIR: Another book that was published recently concerned a Mr James Hewitt, in which he claimed to have had a very close relationship with you, from about 1989 I think. What was the nature of your relationship?

DIANA: He was a great friend of mine at a very difficult, yet another difficult time, and he was always there to support me, and I was absolutely devastated when this book appeared, because I trusted him, and because, again, I worried about the reaction on my children.
And, yes, there was factual evidence in the book, but a lot of it was, comes from another world, didn’t equate to what happened.

BASHIR: What do you mean?

DIANA: Well, there was a lot of fantasy in that book, and it was very distressing for me that a friend of mine, who I had trusted, made money out of me. I really minded about that.
And he’d rung me up 10 days before it arrived in the bookshops to tell me that there was nothing to worry about, and I believed him, stupidly.
And then when it did arrive the first thing I did was rush down to talk to my children. And William produced a box of chocolates and said, `Mummy, I think you’ve been hurt. These are to make you smile again.’ So…

BASHIR: Did your relationship go beyond a close friendship?

DIANA: Yes it did, yes.

BASHIR: Were you unfaithful?

DIANA: Yes, I adored him. Yes, I was in love with him. But I was very let down.

BASHIR: How would you describe your life now? You do live very much on your own, don’t you?

DIANA: Yes, I don’t mind that actually. You know, people think that at the end of the day a man is the only answer. Actually, a fulfilling job is better for me. (LAUGHTER)

BASHIR: What do you mean by that?

DIANA: Well, I mean any gentleman that’s been past my door, we’ve instantly been put together in the media and all hell’s broken loose, so that’s been very tough on the male friends I’ve had, and obviously from my point of view.

BASHIR: Does that mean that you feel that for the rest of your life you’ll have to be on your own?

DIANA: No, I’m not really on my own. I’ve got wonderful friends, I’ve got my boys, I’ve got my work. It’s just by living at Kensington Palace obviously it is a little bit isolating, but, you know, maybe we all feel like that.

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight, and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.

3. Keep learning: Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain get idle. “An idle mind is the devil’s workshop.”

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath, laugh until your last breath.

6. The tears happen: Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life is ourself. LIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love: Whether it’s family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don’t take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.

10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

I adore them
