Snowbird and skiing … what an experience!

Okay, so everyone warned me about muscle fatigue but I beg to differ that one, as a first timer can train for this. Day one and two was okay – but day three, my muscles are fatigued to such a degree that they would no longer listen to me at one point.
PANIC! FEAR! SHOCK!
Who knew [...]

Week 3, 2012

New goal – speak in terms of weeks the way “parent’s-to-be” do.
Why?
It seems to make the accomplishments of each week seem more significant as well as keep track of time rather efficiently.
Week 1 was predominantly filled with planning of projects for work as well as self.
Week 2 delved into more detail in preparation for week [...]

And just like that, life ends …

My grandmother died at 11am on 14 October 2011. I was in the air, flight delayed and had not made it in time to see her before she died, but at least I saw her the week before. My mom is the strongest woman I know. She has kept it together for the family, even [...]

October 2011, a month of sadness and reality …

It all started when I checked Facebook and saw this message “Miss you too beautiful one :) u ok? Just heard the news,really sorry :( xx”
I immediately called my mom, who then gave the news of my grandmother being ill, organ failure and the like (details are too graphic, I can’t share just yet).
The love [...]

Sunday – day of mixed feelings …

I woke up this morning to work on a personal project, help a friend plan a book launch in October. Doing this kind of thing, is “kind-of” what I do.
Where the mixed feelings come in to play, was when my “lunch date”, took me to watch the movie “Crazy stupid Love”. All I can say, [...]

Week 19-24 September 2011, what a week …

Meetings, product launches, conducting interviews, running around in an office which looks like a construction site, dinner with partner’s family, dinner with friends and let’s throw in a photo shoot for Cosmo (Fun Fearless Female: December 2011 Edition), what a week it has been.
Its easy to slip back into the madness that is everyday, but a [...]

Dress shopping … oi vey!

Atypical woman I am. Am woman who dislikes shopping. I usually do when the need is there, know what I need, get in and get out quickly. I know, it’s crazy :). Now take me to a gadget, DVD or stationery store, I can linger for hours. (Stationery, don’t ask!).
This week, my partner informed me [...]

Sunday, 24th July 2011

It’s been an insane week, then again the past month has flown by in an instant. Today however, the love of my life returns after a two-week stint in the USA. Now two weeks is not a long time, however the time difference made it challenging to have a decent conversation since either I was [...]
