Une semaine sans blogger

Désolée pour le silence. En déplacement, j'aurais l'occasion de vous en dire plus très bientôt. :)
Des rendez-vous très très intéressants lors de mon intermède new-yorkais, avec un des membres fondateurs d'AngelAfrica et des dignes représentants des jeunes yuppies brillants qui peuplent la mégalopole. Je vous en dis plus.

The Jennifer "JJ"Jareau principle In the critically acclaimed US TV Show Criminal Minds , Jennifer "JJ"Jareau a.k.a "JJ" quoted nicely her exit interview in the 2nd episode of the 6th Season.  Here's what I named it the Jennifer "JJ" Jareau principle. I'm thankful for my years spent with this family; for everything we shared, every chance we had to grow.  I'll take the best of them and lead by their example; where ever I go.  A friend told me to be honest with you, so here it goes.  This isn't what I want, but I'll take the high road.  Maybe it's because I look at everything as a lesson, or I don't want to walk around angry.  Or maybe it's because I finally understand.  There are things we don't want to happen, but have to accept; things we don't want to know, but have to learn, and people we can't live without, but have to let go.

The former Finance Minister of Olusegun Obasanjo was largely credited for the $18 billion debt cancellation from the Club of Paris.
