okay okay, so i don't blog much. so what?... there's still social networking which i love to loathe and then loathe to love! dammit its such a love-hate relationship! one that i cannot seem to get to have it's claws off me! grrr...

Okay, so the real reason I'm here tonight, is that, I've been getting a sense that my blog is becoming too venty (if you know what I mean?) Yeah! I mean, really now, i'm a girl who is so multi-faceted- a lover of the finer things in this life, and foody (eish, hopefully not a soon-to-be food addict...hmmm), a future lawyer, a sister, a soon-to-be aunty (praise God!), a quirky individual,a sporadic poet (ehhh..), a fiesty feminist (uhhh..loading...), and etcetera!

i'm gonna re-launch my blog, soon, as a site that represents my thoughts (now now,not so blatantly!), and yeah.
So basically, this part of the blog is called- WHAT I LIKE RIGHT NOW :)
Hate it. Love it. Either way, I BLOG WHAT I LIKE!!! :) [insert shoulder-shrug hereabout].

Look out for number one

Hallo!!
I want to address one if the few things I unfortunately always turn a blind eye to, unlucky for me. Hmmmph. I recently made a conscious decision to be a more pleasant person, you know? good karma and stuff? My efforts have been thrown right back into my face. Fuuuuuudge! But some people are ungrateful! Yesesss, ba ntena just thinking about it. I will not name and shame, I refuse to. You know, I always just called it a moment- when people take advantage of your niceness and metaphorically fart in your face? But it simply says a lot about a person who does that, seriously. A bit of your character is revealed in that moment, and only time can unveil the origins of that displeasure.
After a series of events, today, on this day 14th February 2011, I make the decision to raise my middle finger to all the motherfuckers that call themselves my “friends”, and continue to act otherwise, all the while getting ahead assisted by me, nxa! I think I have expended enough of my energies on your lousy arses, enough is enough, it ends HERE. I have been called the “Ice-queen” previously- for a reason. She’s a thing of the past, but from now on this girl right here is gonna be smart in the world, I’m not gonna be as nasty, but I promise I’ma look out for number one!! Yeah and guess who that is? Me me me me me  haha.
I promise not to expect too much else from any body other than myself. Know this, I’ma look out for my immediate family like a fierce mothafucka, because these people, these people have never failed to look out for me, no matter what the state of the relationship was like at the time. I expect nothing from any one who is not family, zilch, noto, nil, nada, niks, letho, lutho, fokol.
This was a public service announcement that also happened to serve as a note to self, and of course a venting session!!! Whoop whoop!!! Mission accomplished 
P.S. Fuck you too :P

New Decade

I can't believe the last time I put up an entry was 22 July last year.
So much has happened since then. A few big changes which will unravel in the new year. So I'm still in school, now officially in my 3rd year into my LLB, will be finishing next year. I'm loving life. Honestly. And also living as honestly as I can? [haha, I'm not too sure what that even means- wanted to sound deep, I'm not gonna ask if it was effective].

I'm chilling in my room, in res, typing this on a rainy friday afternoon. The time is 16h16 to be precise. i'm listening to some India Arie- "He heals me", of her album "Testimony: vol 2 Love and Politics". Listening to india's music always makes me feel so much closer to my sister, yeah, she went into a whole india frenzy in her first year working. So how can I best describe my relationship with that chick? my sister? I guess for a very long time I didn't see her as human- no no no,that came out wrong. you know how it is with a mother and a child? In a way she was like my second mom? weird? totally. She took care of me. She was always the perfect role model, always liked and loved and appreciated and revered- you know? everything I aspirED towards (without thought). And in as many ways as I looked up to her I hated how she always gets away with things and how my mother always seems to favour her.

I guess though, a culmination of events has led me to see her in a more humane light.
She's such a beautiful person, really. With so much compassion and fun-lovingness.
The week-end of my 21st birthday she came and we had soo much fun! My sister's crazy. We rocked the dance-floor in jeans and heels all the while she was forcing me to down drinks like a vagrant ,haha :) I mean, on the way home we pumped the music loud in the car, jumped out and danced in the road, like crazy teenagers, and the cops came round the corner and gave us a good talking to, hahaha soooo much fun!
My uncle's wedding was 3 weeks after that and it was crazy, we were dressed to the nines yo, halla at your sisters :D

My sister's just a girl, with her insecurities, her dreams and her caring spirit and lotsa laughter from her belly, a greatful citizen of planet earth who reveres her God and lives in line with her principles and values. Gorgeous girl, really I promise. She is a beautiful flower.



Any whooo!!! Yeah, I kow I should probably re-name this blog "I blog about my relationship with my sister", haha nott funny. Plans for the year?
Kill my academics like the monster I am! I mean, really kill em, it was just a few distinctions last year, mar this year i'm going all the way to prize-giving, and the law faculty is gonna be begging me to stay and work at the law-clinic (and of course I'mma enjoy saying "No, thank you."). Okay the picture is clear, I'm not stopping until I get it, i've got it in me.So yesterday I went for an interview to become a tutor for tax law . Big things only.


Here's a thought i'm signing out with
"as you ask and feel and believe, you will receive"


2011. Believe

New semester, my rant of the day !!

New semester, last semester went well enough academically.
I'm doing some pretty challenging subjects this semester, very excited to see what I AM capable of doing- of course we know that is everything I set my mind to- right? MOS DEF!

So this afternoon, actually, in a couple of minutes, we're having a guest lecturer from one of the best-known law firms in SA- Bowman Gilfillian. Tax. Nuff said :)

And in other news, so my mother is visiting my older sister- also known as 'her favourite daughter'. Why can't I just make peace with it? My mother always claims "ke le rata kaofela ka ho tshwana" pshhh, we all know that shit is overrated! I used to believe her and think she was being sincere, but come on, the writing's been on the wall for ages now! I'm old enough to understand that she's human and has her preferrence, no, really, what i'm loathing is her continuosly undermining my intelligence by lying to my face.I'm fucking twenty! AAAggggrrrGGGhhh!!! gosh!

Let's do a recollection of this now, and I'mma show you I'm not being dramatic or paranoid or whatever else...
Last year, Margate- just them. the year before,Durban- just them. This year? my mother goes on leave, and as soon as i leave, she runs to Welkom! seriously? could this possibly be a sign of guilt? Coz I wasn't exactly gonna die withiout her around, huh? she didn't even mention it to me! As IF she wasn't planning it all ALONG!
What's next? what's her excuse next? I mean even my Dad said it, even the househelp said it- she's a lot kinder to my sister- oh bringing out the best cutlery and crockery as soon as her charming doctor daughter breathes a word about visiting home! This is utterly sickening- really.

Huh, breathe, great rant and rave that was!! Had fun, really :) Now, i can move on with the rest of my day =)

six, seven months on and I'm in a great space, having found balance. I'm in love with my LLB. It's hard work, but really worth it! I'm loving it, probably not neccessarily every moment of it, but for the most part. I'm realizing my ability. Yes, my uhm... ability to actually burn the "midnight oil" and see results :) haha and sit there and ENJOY what I'm learning about, besides it's all over my world- tis kinda hard to ignore. My brother said something about learning from our own mistakes- the lesson sticks harder that way (don't YOU think?) I mean after this I so tatally know how an uninformed decision can lead you down a road of, gosh,a what? Basically a badass de-tour.Okay i know what you're thinking... "Duh"- right? twasn't so obvious for me though.. I guess.

Any who, i'm done with this semester, just waiting for exams to start, and so I'm not gonna be too heavy after this one here :)
Below is just a bit of this and that, outfits, shoes, bags, the likes...






Oh yes, P.S! It's 30 days to the worldcup and I'ma be a hostess right thurr- international working experience- uhm, right in my own back-yard. How cool is that for a job? hmmm? hahah.
