Best movies I watched in 2015 so far.

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

When I am too tired to grab a book and read, I just go for movies.  For a couple of hours I escape real life issues  like, budgets, mommy can I have Barbie juice please, what to prepare for the next meal and many more. I go to the world where I don’t need to add value to human kind but watch other people live.  Its like sitting on the bench in Paris and watch people pass by.  It clears my mind and inspires me. I have not only enjoyed watching the following movies but I have learned something good […]

Life lately!

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

I have not taken much pictures lately.  That tells you enough about my intentions to blog.  None existing. I have been behind with blogging.  I love this little space of mine in the internet world.  I like the part where I kick back and chat to imaginary people.  Like everything else in life, I need to make more time to do things that I like.  That include writing more. Sill on that note, lets kick back, relax and let me do the talking cyber friends. We are still in scarves and long boots here in Cape Town.  We are supposed […]

33 Things to Quit Doing When You Hit Your 30s.

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

Friday fun… I was talking with a newly graduate at work and  I asked him to let me know  about the date for Beauty pageant at the University.  He got excited and told me its next weekend. The last time I went to beauty pageant was 7years ago.  When I was still a full time student.  I wondered if I will enjoy seeing 18 to 20 years old kids on swim suit and boys in under wears.  And I realised the idea is not exciting to me at all. I wondered if lack of excitement was because of getting older.  […]

Spring day inspiration.

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

My first day of spring started with morning kisses from my loves (Muli and Cullo), and I went on to have a team building outing at work. We went to a lovely place called Pampoenkraal.  The scenery was inspirational and made me to think of simple words making me to walk with  bang this spring.  Words making me want to live a better life.       I really want to give my health a priority this season.  I did very well in winter by doing regular exercises and eating hearty-nutritious food.   As important as my job is to me,so […]

Just when I thought I had a bad day.

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

… someone reminded me it could be worse. You know those days when your computer crashes at a very wrong time.  That was my computer yesterday.  I was busy with a major deadline and off went my computer.  Three technicians and 6 hours later, I decided to call it a day. My head was spinning, worrying about the deadline I did not meet, worried if I will manage to finish everything in the next three hours.  It was impossible to be productive, all I needed was a good rest so I can clear my mind and be much more useful […]

In celebration of SA women’s day.

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

Have you ever been restricted from movement?.  Like a person telling you that you can only go here and here but not there?.  Do you see how children get frustrated when you put them in a naughty corner?.  Well, Monday was a public holiday because last Sunday, South Africa was celebrating a women’s day.  In remembrance of the day when women said enough with the laws that restrict our freedom.  The  50ties were the darkest years for African people in South Africa.  Apartheid was at its highest peak.  Laws were passed time and again by the government of that time […]

Death be not proud.

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

I have been hit by the wave of death.  Death is a strange thing.  We all talk about it and we know by now that we can’t be well prepared for it and that we will all die one day.  Yet when death strikes, it is always shocking.  You always feel like I cant believe s/he is gone.   Death is untimely . My uncle went to meet the Lord last week Monday.  I was so touched about his passing because I  never thought his life will be cut so short.  I am wounded inside.  It is hard to imagine that […]

When life goes back to normal.

Its hard to believe the school holidays are over without feeling like crying.  I mean, its been the happiest days ever with my nieces and my nephews.  I was working through out the holidays but I made sure that I started early at work so that I can be home early.  I kept on smiling in my office when I think about crazy things that my nieces and my nephews say and do. They left last Saturday and Muli made the goodbyes so unbearable when she cried for her cousins.  Who like goodbyes anyway?.  The time Muli spent with her […]

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

Hey aunts out there what is our role?. I hope you have a better role than mine because my role is simple.  I spoil my nephews and my nieces and I break their mother’s rules.  Its not something their parents would like but my excuse is “its aunt’s weakness”.  Those kiddos have me wrapped right around their small fingers.  Its impossible to say NO to them. Lets keep it light this Friday and talk about why it is important for me to spend very little time with my nephews  Why it might be possible that I can turn them into irresponsible and […]

Cousins’ season.

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts

20150701_170042_thumb.jpg

Goodbye June, Hello July. School winter term ended last Friday.  To my family school holidays is cousins  season.  It has always been like that.  During my teen years, most of the holidays where spent with my cousins.  Sometimes it will be cousins visiting at home or us visiting our cousins.  Those were precious years. My relationships with my cousins is the longest friendship I know.  I mean those guys knew me since I was in diapers, some even changed my diapers.  It makes me happy to see Muli developing a strong relationship with her cousins.  It blesses my heart because […]
