JOHNNY DEPP THE ENIGMATIC MOVIE STAR

Who wouldn't be a fan of Johnny Depp after watching Pirates of the Caribbean. It was as if the role of Jack Sparrow was meant specially for Depp. Perhaps no one else could have carried it off better than him. One fact is Depp sure makes box office magic when his movies hit the theatres. 

John Christopher Depp was born on June 9, 1963. Besides being a world renowned popular actor, he is a also a screen writer, director, producer and musician. Depp is enlisted in 2012 Guinness Book of World Records as the highest paid actor with U.S.$ 75 million! His personal net worth is $ 350 million. 

Every time a photo is out in the press or online papers or magazines, Johnny Depp seem to be donning a different look. Highly photogenic, he has his own unique style of dressing; whatever clothing or fashion style he follows off screen or whatever character role he assumes on screen, he carries both off pretty well. He is seldom seen without his chains, necklaces and bracelets. His 13 tattoos bear sentimental significance to events, beliefs and people in his life. Depp has two children from his long time partner Vanessa Paradis, daughter Lily Rose Melody Depp aged 13 and John Christoper 'Jack' Depp III, aged 10. Johnny Depp is starring in a new movie 'Dark Shadows' scheduled to be released in May 2012. The movie is a gothic horror tale centering on the life of vampire Barnabas Collins and his tryst with monstors, witches, werevolves and ghosts.

ENCHANTING SPINNING MILK TEA IN THAILAND

In Jatajuk Market in Bangkok, Thailand is a little tea shop called Tae Ta Re. Those who order tea from there or even passersby get to see an enchanting feat of milk tea spinning by skilled artisans. With pitchers filled with tea in both hands, the tea vendor gracefully and effortlessly passes the milk tea back and forth through mid air, while he spins 360 degrees ! It's almost like watching an acrobatic show. How does he do that? Well, watch the video below for a visual treat and be amazed!

WEIGHT LOSS - LOSE WEIGHT AND REVEAL THE REAL YOU


Weight loss aspirants, awaken the thin person living in a coma inside you. But that's only possible if you get rid of the excess weight. And you don't need to lug that excess weight, all day, all year long. You have done that for too long already. Drop the weight, let the real you...the thin person who wishes to be alive again,  be revealed. What's more important - losing weight? or eating what makes you put on weight? 

Eating healthy is always married to exercise. So, don't ignore the exercise! After a few months, watch the surprise and shock on your family and friends' faces when they see the thin you. Feel lighter, feel brighter!

STRIKING WOODEN INTERIORS AT AG MART

It's after one whole year, that I visited AG Mart, in Salmiah, three days ago. What strikes you different about the place once you enter it,  is the interesting wooden architecture and interiors all around. The ground floor has  groceries, dairy, snacks, breads, juices, fruits and nuts, bakery, toiletries, beverages, vegetables, cold cuts, fresh meat, fish, chicken and so on. The basement seemed more like a storage area, but has lots of things, besides special offers. I didn't  have much time to spend in the basement so I can't really furnish any further information about what's down there. The first floor has a toy section, clothes for men, women and children, bedding and this area hardly had any customers shopping that day. Besides this, there is a home center in the 1st floor, electronics, lovely souvenir section, art equipment and nice variety of paints for artists and art enthusiasts, artificial jewelry and decorative items.   AG Mart is located near Sultan Center, adjacent to American University of Kuwait. Actually it's right  beside Galleria 2000 Mall, to be exact. I quite liked their elaborate wooden interiors with the concept of wooden balconies, stairways, windows with intricate work.  Here are some pictures:
