  1. I had a baby 2 years ago with a man who had a steady girlfriend.When i first informed him that i was pregnant he promised to support us, this never happened.

  5. Kenyan girls are loose?!?!?Dear Diary, Here I am sitting in the darkness trying to type. I have to say though, it's pretty nice sitting around trying to play scrabble with some really cool people, squinting in the candle light to see the letters on the old tiles. Actually, they're playing and I'm lounging. Kenyan style. In the dark :) Seriously though, how was your week? Mine was interesting, as usual. Here's the thing on my mind though: A non-Kenyan male friend recently share...
