Just short of a decade ago, this song was tearing up the dancefloors at Spingfield and Contis. They would play it at Lizards too, late at night after I finished my doorlady shift. I was 19, thought I knew everything and was harder than nails! Fast forward eleven years and here I am, two sleeps away from leaving behind my twenties. I have learned so much, changed so much and gone through so much over this past decade or so, …
So many things this week. Good things, horrible things, stressful and upsetting things, exciting and inspiring things. A lot to fit into this final week of my twenties. I started another blog this week. Actually, I revived an old one… my very blog actually – Rox in the City. It’s been sitting patiently in the sidelines waiting for me to bring it out, but I couldn’t find the right look. I think I may just have a problem with blog …
I started off this year with just one goal in mind – I was going to do my utmost to cut down on stress, and live a happy and balanced life. Almost five months in, and I’m starting to notice an ever so teeny slip back into my bad habits. I can’t remember when I last went for a run, and while this cold kinda hit me with a vengeance, I can’t entirely blame it on that. Same story with …
Thanks so much to my nyak for sending me the link to this, honestly think this is the best thing I’ve seen like forevers!
My word, I just can’t believe that it is almost Friday already. This past week has gone by so quickly, hard to believe that a) I’ve had my BlackBerry for a week, b) my sister has come and gone, and c) Sonic has been home almost a week. It’s been a busy week on all fronts, lot of fun, work, family, kitten antics, missioning and coughing (almost over this cold thank god). A lot of stresses, laughs, smiles, yawns and …
It’s been quite an exhausting but rewarding weekend. On Saturday morning we set off for Piketberg, first making a stop at the divine retro hotel that my sister’s housemate’s parents have taken over. A drink or two and a first glimpse of the utterly ridiculous 3 week old kitten my sister is raising, and we were ready to head off to the farm to collect her things for the weekend, and to kidnap Sonic the emo cat. Setting off back …
I am turning into a complete tea addict, thanks to my lovely co-worker. I used to drink a lot of tea, especially green tea and jasmine, and chamomile… but over the past few months I have gained a new respect for the art of tea and while this does not mean I have quite given up on my old flame caffeine, I am now happy to stick to two cups of coffee a day, and dedicate the rest of the …
So I got a Blackberry today. The Bold 9700, latest and greatest model. All I can say is that someone is going to need to take this thing away from me, because I am seriously hooked already… after just a few hours. From the slick design to the awesome features, the ease of use and overall fabulousness of this phone, it is just too friggin awesome for words. To my friends and Twitter followers, I am apologising in advance. You …
The universe has a funny way of bringing things to your attention sometimes. As some of you know, I have been wanting to start adult ballet for some time, and am hoping to finally start at the beginning of next month. Like many young girls, I had my first taste of ballet when I was about four. The pink tights, soft ballet shoes, hair scraped back and sprayed within an inch of its life, and the classical piano, hall of …
I don’t care… That ET is on Special Assignment tonight with his infamous last interview. About Wits, fossils or any of this shiz – yes it’s awesome, end of story. About Malema, the ANC, the AWB or anything remotely to do with politics right now. Whether or not it’s going to be hot or rainy tomorrow. Whether it’s weird to invite ex boyfriends to my 30th (it’s my party, will invite who I want!) That I have been living on …
