From Girlybubble: It’s the first day of spring and I know this much because of Hello Kitty. You see, my blogger lifestyle prohibits me from venturing to the outside world to judge for myself.

Below is a few of my favorite picks of the Hello Kitty stuff litter: More »


North Korea has a population of about 24 million people, most of whom live horrible and impoverished lives. The horror stories that occur rarely reach the outside world due to North Korea’s total isolation from the rest of the world. More »


From Girlybubble: Cute. Anyways, this brings me the subject of Chinese face reading!

Chinese face reading is a form of divination (also referred to as a pseudoscience) that has been around for thousands of years.
