My Kind Neighbour nomination
I have the kindest, friendliest and most helpful neighbours, after four years as my neighbours, they are not only my neighbours and landlords they became my friends. They arrange every year for a potluck at their place for all the close neighbours, which then ends up with a BBQ. For the past two years, I end up with Christmas gifts and gift cards from them. These two lovely people are Gavin & Jenny. And there is more, when Jenny does some backing I always end up with something. Gavin, on the other hand, makes sure that there are Christmas lights on their house for the kids in our neighbourhood.
Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
