I had this sudden urge to learn more about the art of henna today. So I browsed and found this great website : hennapage.com.

The Hennapage even have free ebooks on howto henna.

I have downloaded one on Learn to apply henna with traditional and modern tools.

I am learning the elements of henna patterns such as the fooffy, the hump, tribbles. But it seems so far I am only good at making the growing vine pattern..huhu.

Oh, did you ever wonder why some people seem to have dark stain when they apply henna on their hands?

“Meat eaters, people who are young, people who do not use lotions or alfa-hydroxy or anti-oxidant products, people who are in robust health, people who are happy and relaxed, people who are physically active, people with high metabolisms, people in their sexually reproductive years, menstrual or premenstrual people, and people whose skin is very warm to the touch tend to get very dark or brownish stains.”

Synopsis taken from tribute.ca:

Centuries ago, the Mayans left us their calendar, with a clear end date and all that it implies. Since then, astrologists have discovered it, numerologists have found patterns that predict it, geologists say the earth is overdue for it, and even government scientists cannot deny the cataclysm of epic proportions that awaits the earth in 2012. A prophecy that began with the Mayans has now been well-chronicled, discussed, taken apart and examined. By 2012, we’ll know we were warned.

I finally got to watch it last weekend while my son was napping. The DVD quality was not very clear so many important dialogues were lost. But it was a good movie, give me something to think about if the apocalypse is really happening soon..huhu!
