Women’s month – celebrate your life!

The men in my sphere have complained about not having a month to celebrate “men”. I offer them October :). Seriously though women have overcome so many role changes and inequalities in life, that yes, we need a month of celebration.
Apart from this, we need to honor and remember the women who fought for the [...]

Time for another “awesome” list

Yes, I’ve been flu bound for what feels like – oh, let me see, for”ever”. But, I will not let the sniffles, sneezes, sore nose, ears and throat, congestion like the freeway when it rains and there’s been an accident, or lack of sleep get me down. No, no way, not I.

The World Cup means more to tourists than we think ..

It started with a phone call on the way home from a meeting from my bf’s bff :). “How would you guys like to sample the best steak in Cape Town?” was the question posed to us by bff. He adds “I mean best steak, calamari and vegetarian dishes” because I am vegetarian :). The [...]

World Cup 2010 unites the nation and I was a part of it!

Ayoba! Ayoba! Ayoba! What exactly does it mean? Well, all I know is that the origin stems from “approval” and more so, approval in the light of dance.
Rewind 1 year.
Traffic go-ers are complaining about road closures and extended some stuck in traffic, electricity issues, and what they are going to do with their children. The [...]

A month to celebrate, yes it is your birthday, all month long ..

I celebrate my birthday all month long. Yes you heard me, birthday month. Why? Well, I am one of those people who work too hard, focus on everyone else most of the time and feel guilty for spending on myself. Not in the birthday month :). Not always having the opportunity to celebrated birthdays and [...]

Birthday ponders of …. a 30 something ;)

It’s Friday night, I have one kitten on my lap and one next to me, I am home alone and its only 8.30pm. I love my kittens and they’ve just had an operation on their girly bits, so I don’t mind, but pre-birthday ponders have me wondering:

why am I home alone on a Friday night [...]

Battle of the sexes, collision of the planets ツ

High tea, the One&Only, Cape Town, three best friends sitting around a coffee table, this is their conversation:
Friend one: Hiii (in a squeeky, girlie – although in my, I mean “her” thirties), hon, missed you. This was such a good idea. Chat chat chat … blab, blab, blab. My back hurts, blagh, lets eat ツ.
Friend [...]

Inspired by the “10 Awesome Things Challenge “… ツ

Tomorrow, last year, my life changed – in every way possible!

Last year on March 3rd, getting ready for another Software Symposium, little did I know that the events that would transpire this day, would have a rolling effect on my very being. My relationship status changed, my name changed, my business changed and my location changed, well slightly. All this resulting from one brief meeting [...]

Today I fed my soul and it feels great (”,)

It all started with feeding my body and mind. After a terrible night of broken sleep and nightmares, I woke up slightly (okay more than slightly, babies would have crawled away screaming :D) cranky or rather mad at something or someone. In no mood for gym, I knew if I did not go, I would [...]
