Lessons

The instant New York Times bestseller Supermodel and philanthropist Gisele Bündchen shares personal stories, insights, and photos to explore lessons that have helped shape her life. Gisele Bündchen’s journey began in southern Brazil, growing up with five sisters, playing volleyball, and rescuing the dogs and cats around her hometown. In fact, she wanted to become either a professional volley player or a veterinarian. But at the age of 14, fate suddenly intervened in in the form of a modeling scout, who spotted her in São Paulo. Four years later, Gisele’s appearance in Alexander McQueen’s memorably rain-soaked London runway show in the spring 1998 launched her spectacular career as a fashion model, and put an end to the “heroin chic” era of fashion. Since then, Gisele has appeared in almost 400 ad campaigns and on over 1200 magazine covers. She has walked in more than 470 fashion shows for the most influential brands in the world. Gisele has become an icon, leaving a lasting mark on the fashion industry. But until now, few people have gotten to know the real Gisele, a woman whose private life stands in dramatic contrast to her public image. In Lessons, she reveals for the first time who she really is and what she’s learned over the past 37 years to help her live a meaningful life–a journey that takes readers from a childhood spent barefoot in small-town Brazil, to an internationally successful career, motherhood and marriage to quarterback Tom Brady. A work of great openness and vulnerability, Lessons reveals the inner life of a very public woman.

Crushed unicorn dreams: Smaller paychecks spur ‘I should have voted Romney’

http://twitter.com/#!/VAisforlovas/status/287168893422821377

Oh, dear. The harsh reality of crushed unicorn dreams and the bitter smell of regret. As Twitchy reported, Americans started noticing that Obama’s “fair share” claims weren’t so fair and many were shocked … shocked … that their first paychecks of the year were smaller.

The indebted young Twitter user above now says she was just being sarcastic, but plenty of Obama supporters facing smaller paychecks continue to show genuine disenchantment. Feel the remorse. **

I have a friend who voted for Obama publicly complaining about the new #SS tax raise. I would just like to say: You did this to yourself.

sorry-voted-obama

Real photo or not, that sentiment is being expressed across Twitter. Obama is “the light and the future?” Not so much, unless light means light in the wallet.

I don’t wanna hear that “I’m mad about these taxes they took out my check shit” from any Obama voters lol stfu you voted for him.

—La LaFah(@Its_LaFah) January 5, 2013

Bingo!

Oh, sweetie. Bless your heart. Precious Mildred seems to be in a growing minority, as many others realize that the country voted to go Forward! … to smaller paychecks.

— Nancy Thongkham (@thongkhamlove) January 4, 2013

Twitter users, in yet another prescient move, took solace in the thought that we could at least giggle at all the disenchanted Obama voters. And disenchanted, they are.

The thought of them all scrawling in their tear-stained diaries while smoking cloves and listening to REM’s “Everybody Hurts” is schadenfreud-elicious. However, sadly, we are all dealing with the economy-crushing reality, financial hardship and consequences of their bad choices.  In Obama’s America, everybody does hurt.

Everyone going to regret voting for Obama after they receive their firstpaycheck this year (2013 payroll)
