Random i know but...

When is it acceptable for grown men to have long finger nails? I say never it looks gross! I can understand that in some cultures this may be acceptable or even deemed attractive to some lady folk, notice I said maybe?
This post is triggered by the fact that I was sitting on the tube this evening minding my own business when I couldn’t help but notice that this brother opposite me had long finger nails NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously his nails were longer than mine and my nails aren’t short! I was then captivated throughout my whole journey and could not help but stare lol.
Why on earth would you want your talons longer than the average female?!?! I’m sure it’s not very hygienic for you and when their dirty as well oh lord please don’t get me started. I must admit when ever I’ve seen a guy with long nails it has never been a full set. It is either the pinkie finger or the thumb nail…. is it some secret code for an undercover pimp (just playing). On a serious note I would not advise any guy to grow their nails long as it is NOT a good look, unless you’re Wolverine from X Men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Midnight

I’ve finally finished reading Midnight! Hmmmm it was definitely a good read I’m just not sure if it was worth the long wait! For all those who loved “The Coldest Winter Ever” don’t expect to be reunited with any of those characters as this book is not a sequel! It focuses on Midnight’s life from the age of seven to fourteen, way before he meet’s winter and her family. It was a little long winded and unrealistic at times and did not need 498 odd pages to convey the story. However it will definitely get you thinking on many levels. I can only assume there is going to be a sequel, as the story had too many unanswered questions and one of those to be continued type ending’s not too. I just hope it doesn’t take another 5+ years and isn’t made into another hard back as they’re too expensive! Overall I’ll give it 3 out of 5.
