hello world*

so i've been slacking again in the blogging scene...
i know.


[i want to go crazy with paint]

BUT really, i don't have time to sit and do a blog post.
i feel like they need as much time when i do get a chance to blog,
so i'd rather wait for the right time.



so what's been happening since? ah

still have a crazy workload. hopefully i'm working for Operation Smile
 in my chosen NGO.
meeting sometime in the next 2 weeks.
have 2 promotions this weekend to do for the Absa Cape Epic-crazy cycling event.

valentines day was on monday.
didn't think much of it cause it didn't concern me.
actually forgot about it during the day.



but then i came home to 2 bunches of roses and a card. did it put a smile on my face? yes.
am i annoyed that i don't know who it is? yes.
i guess we'll have to see if he reveals himself.

tuesday, we had a spontaneous trip at 8pm to stellies
with ilsa and katelyn. thee best sushi ever-i can't even remember the name.
but it was great.


[love misty walks]

friday we spent the night at ilsa.
and went to claremont.
and had one hunters... and even that was deadly.
BUT it was wonderful.
and i met a british boy (and yes chaz, he really was british, he didn't just put on an accent).





and the rest of the weekend?

one of thinking, wishing and working.

today i tackled sociology.
wow but that was far from fun!
 i've never experienced such confusion in my life.
damn wikipedia did not help me AT all.



tonight i'm smiling. i don't know why :)

have a wonderful week filled with jellytots my friends.



[i'm ready to go away with you. i'm opening a savings account soon]

because i said so...

So this is my last blog post for the day.
I was told by vicki that I need to post more often.
Friend, have you seen our workload? And I can’t say you’re posting everyday either…

Alas, this is dedicated to vicki because… it was her birthday on Monday.
And I bought her a badge. she wouldn’t wear it.
And she turned 20…oh no sorry, 19.
                                              Still youthful. It’s great. You should hold onto that.


This week I learnt how much work to expect from this year.
It’s a huge change from varisty college but I’m going to stick it out and take up this challenge.
I’m rather excited. I must go research some NGO’s now and choose one for PR.



In other news, my jaw hurts somewhat.
 Ugh it’s annoying. And I have to write a “journal” for media every day.
About my day.
the reason I never keep one is because I lose track of time or I forget about it.
Now I HAVE to write in one.



As much as I appreciate these hot summer days, it gets a bit much when you have a car with no aircon.
Dear sunshine, I think you need to take a break. Go have some rest.
I’ve also decided that I really really like the orthapedic ward at Vincent pallotti hospital
and so if I never make it as a public relations practitioner,
 I’m going to be an orthapedic surgeon.

I hate so many options in life though.
Especially when they’re all so good.
(i want to sit like this all day and not have to worry)

And I’m getting new glee episodes later.
I know vicki and chaz will be thrilled to hear this!
And everyone should go to food lovers market in town once in their life.
And if you’re there, let me know.
I apparently eat so much for such a little person according to vicki.

(how GREAT is he?)

I know this hasn’t been the most exciting of posts
 but when I have something serious on my mind, maybe I’ll share it with you all but for now,
I’m off to email some NGO’s and do part-time accounting.

Let’s go on a roadtrip?

when i am old, i shall wear purple...

Youth has no age.


On Sunday it was my gran’s 92nd birthday and it was beautiful.

To live to an age like that is quite an achievement. She is still mobile and able to do most things. I envy her and hope to be like she is if I ever reach that age.




We went to this lovely restaurant in Stellenbosch (I think it’s my next place to go for my birthday).
And I had this chocolate nougat mousse with fresh berries. And it was more than delicious. really.
Andrea, you’d love it.




(eager smile)


Happy birthday gran. Thank you for all the shortbread you’ve ever made us.

i'll be in the sky

so saturday i go along to watch 3 of my friends skydive.
and risk losing all 3 friends at once.
but i didn't :)


what an amazing expereince though.
the adrenaline rush throught that 30 second fall.
even the suiting up beforehand gets bloods pumping and once you're
 in that dinky little plane, 10 000 feet in the air, there's no going back.
the instructor just jumps.

(chilled vibes as chazzie's man reads before
the jump and on the plane)



but you all did it.
and am so proud.
 and glad you're all still in my life :)

i was wary about such a fete but after watching the process
 of how it all goes, it is something i would do next-
i must just find another willing person.
