Tuesday Tunage: Rihanna – Good Girl Gone Bad

I am totally loving this song – and if ever there was an anthem for chicks who’ve been ‘conditioned’ by asshole guys, this is it. As a good girl gone bad myself, it resonates bigtime with me. Awesome. Rihanna – Good Girl Gone Bad We stay, moving around, so low Ask us where you at, we don’t know And don’t care All we know is we was at home ’cause you left us there You got your boys and got … Read More »

Terrific Tuesday

Woolies Peanut Chuckles: addictive As the lovely warm winter days in Cape Town continue, so does my (mostly) calm and chilled out mood. Today has been busy, but awesome… exactly what I had hoped for my last day of working from home. Hard to believe that tomorrow I’ll be in an office again, but I’m really excited and looking forward to this new chapter of my life! A few thoughts on this lovely Tuesday afternoon… * Woolies Chuckles are currently … Read More »

Time to step things up

So it’s been almost 2 months since I’ve started gymming, and about 2 weeks since they gave me a custom-made twofold programme consisting of a cardio plan (40 mins plus 5 min warm up and cool down on either side) and a weight training plan (basic circuit). I’ve also done a few Pilates classes here and there, and a few runs of course. While I can definitely notice some results, I don’t really feel my current gym plan is cutting … Read More »

I’m Loving… Rihanna

With my penchant for cheese and old skool rock, and maybe a little bit of bad hip hop and other stuff, pop isn’t something I’m hugely into. I’ve had Rihanna’s Good Girl Gone Bad album sitting on my laptop for quite some time, and slowly it’s been growing on me more and more though… I’m really starting to love this chick! Aside from her awesome voice, she as a collection of really interesting and cool tattoos – and like me … Read More »

Woza Weekend

Phew, hard to believe it’s Sunday night already… this weekend has flown past! Overall, it’s been a really good one – especially with the excitement of starting a new job at the beginning of the month on Wednesday, a good celebration was in order. Here’s a rundown of the weekend’s highlights… * DT and I went to a birthday party at Boo Radley’s on Friday night, I can’t say I was all that impressed with the place (which was packed … Read More »

If they can do it, so can I

The dancing inmates of Philippines are not new, but I only saw their awesome Thriller routine today so they’re new to me. I am totally jealous and impressed – I’ve wanted to do the Thriller dance ever since I saw Jennifer Garner and co do it on 13 Going on 30 (aka one of my favourite chick flicks of all time). I was having a conversation yesterday with a certain someone about pipe dreams, things you wish you could do … Read More »

Saturday Songs – Chris Isaak

Chris Isaak has been one of my favourite mope music providers for ages – Wicked Game is quite possibly one of the most beautiful and haunting songs, like ever. He had the James Dean looks, and that voice… phew, too sexy! So, seeing as how it was his birthday yesterday, he deserves a place on my Saturday Songs playlist – much as I adore Baby Did a Bad, Bad Thing, Wicked Game is by far my favourite… Chris Isaak – … Read More »

Fabulously Frivolous Friday

The ultimate cheesy sparkliness! Phew, what a week! This time last week I was resigning myself to an uncertain fate, and now the universe has gone and flipped everything upside down again… in a good way this time thank heavens! Here are some of the highlights from this week and the weekend to come… * A very old friend joined my gym, so now have a gym buddy (now if we can just manage to co-ordinate our gym schedules, it … Read More »

RIP Michael Jackson

The King of Pop as we remember him best It’s so hard to believe, Michael Jackson has died. Despite his weirdness in recent years, Wacko Jacko always seemed infallible somehow… really didn’t expect him to die at such a young age of 50. There are plenty of moving tributes doing the rounds, I like this one from Business Mirror best though. I was never a die-hard fan, but like most kids brought up in the 80′s, his music has been … Read More »
