People born on May 22

22 May, 2009

Alexander Pope: English Poet 1688

Arthur Conan Doyle: British Physician and Writer (Sherlock Holmes not Jurassick Park... dunno what I was thinking!!!) 1859

Harvey Milk: American Politician and civil rights activist 1930

Hergé: Belgian comic book creator (Tin-Tin) 1907

Naomi Campbell: English model and actress 1970

Ram Mohan Roy: Hindu Reformer 1772

I wonder why I have never tried to find this information before… With my uncertain path for the future, I am just glad that I found it today. These are people who I look up to. Not Naomi Campbell or Harvey Milk, but definitely Conan Doyle and Pope. I have been to Belgium and seen the comic book museum from the outside (we were late!!!) and I loved it. Now even more :)

pricky, don't quote lines Doyle or Sherlock never said. But I do quite agree - why not Campbell?
Apart from the fact that she's a brat and extremely rude and all those things... she is also a super model and a super achiever...
And Roy too... with all those reforms and all those things you know. Rebel, in todays world :-)
Happy Birthday Babe
