Young, Fabulous and Bajan Online Magazine

Seasons greetings to one and all I hope all is well with you and yours. I love Christmas but I am sure that businesses love it more. So much for the economy being in a recession cause the way that I see people spending is LAVISH. 

Please direct me to the money trees which seem to be growing by the acre. I clearly didn't get the memo.For the holidays I am working at a restaurant and I have a new found appreciation for that business especially. I don't care how 'civilized' we are claiming to be when it comes down to hunger people revert to their very primitive and primal ways.

Moving onto matters at hand, for 2011 YFB is expanding its name to an online magazine. This magazine will be available from the first weekend in January. Without disclosing too much information about the magazine I can say this venture is 100 % BAJAN focusing on  people, style, issues, accomplishments etc. 

We at YFB look forward to bringing you objective and accurate articles, giving you new insight and appreciation for our beautiful gem of the Caribbean.

Until next time when I reveal the links to you 

Happy holidays from me to you 

xoxo

TwentyTen- Year of the Tiger

Happy New Year to one and all, I hope you rang in the new year with all the love and prosperity in China :)

First on the agenda: Fault Station is BACK and they are going innnnnn. The dynamic duo have set their goals for 2010 and are doing all that is needed to reach them. So studio time, writing, spitting 3 songs in one hour...that's how we hustle!

So look out for the mixtape previews, on the scene and behind the scenes footage coming soon!

Secondly, we all know the blog has been approached to do a show on www.caribfyah.com. The season starts this month so look out for that - an indepth panel discussion on the domestic violence in Barbados as well as an interview with UP and COMING supermodel Imogen Cooper, Barbadian Born & Raised! That's right we are a melting pot of very talented individuals who intend to TAKE OVER the world. GO Hard or GO Home!!!!

That's it for now...Y.F.B is on the GO for 2010, but will definately be keeping you posted.

Don't forget to keep looking out for the footage and we are going to be on Facebook soon as well so stay tuned.

Nicole King

This post isn't going to be like the rest...this is the real deal here and its very solemn and straight up.

A week and two days ago, my friend and former schoolmate Nicole King was involved in a tragic car accident that has left her fighting for her life at the QEH. Amidst the genuinely concerned friends and fellow Barbadians who were worried about her well being and condition...they were a few bad apples who as in anything that deviates from the norm, tried to look for gossip and propaganda to fuel a fire that should have NEVER been started.

I would like each and everyone of you to place yourself in her shoes...in her mother's shoes...all you would want is a fair and fighting chance to be well and out of the hospital and as a mother for your daughter to be back to her old self again.

My advice therefore is to count the number of fingers pointing back at you when you waste time speculating on what would, could, should and didn't happen before that night...instead GO to the Blood Bank at the Sir Winston Scott Polyclinic and donate a pint of your blood, GET down on your knees and thank the Lord for being so good to you and ask him to keep Nicole in his arms on her journey back to health and be supportive to this young woman who has done nothing to deserve the situation which she is faced with!!!

The number at the Blood Bank is 429-4307...if need be call before you go to find out if you are eligible to donate. The following are some points which you should note:

You CANNOT give blood if:

· You had a TATTOO done within the last 12 months.

· You GAVE BIRTH within the last 6 months.

· You had a PIERCING done within the last 6 months.

· You have the COLD or FLU

· You are taking ANTI-BIOTICS

· You have an EXSISTING INFECTION

On that note...I would like to reiterate my initial point...don't believe everything you hear and stop speculating. Those things are minuscule at this time. The task at hand is to get Nicole through these hard times with the help, support and pray from everyone who knows about the situation.

♫Make Way♫- Fault Station in the building or rather the Studio

Watch as Montana and Kas create musical history in the studio. These two know how to spit lyrics and with Minim, one of the best producers in Barbados...what can stop them?
