Today is...

Tuesday.

Technically it is my Monday today, because I had study leave yesterday. 

Which makes it better and worse - the weekend will come quicker in my mind now.

It seems everything goes wrong when I take leave.

Scary right?

The test was easy (Major plus!)

Now I am studying for my maths test on the 26th of October.

I am scared, but maintaining a positive attitude about it.

I am thinking about taking some extra courses in writing or literature next semester, to keep things interesting for me.

I really want to go watch the new Bond movie when it comes out - Daniel Craig, Yes please! 

Hope you all are keeping those fingers crossed for me - I want to book for my driver's license the same day as when I write my maths test. I am planning to pass this time!

Different

So I changed my blog template... Again. Sue me. I feel the judgement waves across the screen. I changed it since I am feeling miserable (not because of the judgement) so I am in the mood for something a little simpler. What do you think?

The main reason for the post is not to report my design changes, no. It is to ask the following question..

What differences lies in people that come from different countries? Theranne and I discussed yesterday that it always seems that people from "overseas" - meaning any other country - is slightly more glamorous than us South-Africans?

I came to the conclusion that it may be because most of the foreigners we encounter come from first world countries and just grew up differently than us. They have more resources available, so obviously they can achieve much more easily.

Not that South-Africa isn't amazing. Compared to other African countries, we are the place to be.

Any ideas on this?

PS: REason for the misery - I have a toothache from the pits of hell and I have an irrational fear of dentists. So please keep those fingers crossed that the pain goes away and I am feeling better without the help of the Sadistics (I don't care if it is not a real word)

Fetish Friday

I am a proud shoe buying fanatic. Happy Friday.

You're welcome ;)

Living on the wild side

This week has flown by! Not complaining though - it hasn't been the best of weeks for me. But I decided not to complain about work any more on here - I really like my job! (what I don't like is the noise some of my co-workers are currently making)

Complained.Again.Sigh.

I started learning for my Unisa Exams finally. On Monday I am writing EUP (a very basic computer subject compulsory for Unisa students) and then on the 26th I am writing Mathematics - I will probably be going crazy by then due to a combination of no sleep and freaking out.

Thinking of booking my license again. I really want it before the end of the year, and need to book it now - the testing stations here are really over booked. I drove to work perfectly this morning, a great accomplishment - Soweto traffic isn't kind to learner drivers.

I really want a new pair of shoes. Which I can't really afford now. Something to think about..

We are going to the Doors tomorrow night. I can't wait! 

Have a happy Thursday,

End of the world

What else wants to go wrong? It is barely mid week, and the world is coming to an end.

like yesterday wasn't too much drama already with the break in.

now there is no water supply. In a building that sits in a hospital. NICE.

Picture this: No water until Friday.

Twelve story building. 

Can you imagine the smell when the water finally starts working?

Because, for some reason, people forget to remember that they are still supposed to flush the toilet after using it!

over share, I know.

Please keep me in your thoughts.

My situation stinks at the moment.

Pun intended.

This weekend better be effing worth it.

Yours truly,

Natasha

Losing it in this place

Morning blogreaders!

Life at the office is crazy today. Our clinic was broken into last night, so everything is messed up right now. We are really lucky that there wasn't too much to steal in there. Small miracles!

The weather is so lovely. Nothing makes me happier than waking up at night because of a thunderstorm. The rainy weather is making me really happy. 

Here are some pictures of things I love for you (and me, since this day has been a bit crazy) Hope you enjoy them.

PS: I am itching to change my template again. Sigh.

PPS: Good luck to my friend Anell with her driver's license test Thursday! 

 The Lord of the Rings movies

 Lab humour

Quotes that makes me think about life. 

 Reading good books

My favourite vampire  - Damon Salvatore

Happy days readers!

Weekend stuff!

Meh… it is Monday. I am so tired!

What a weekend though! Friday night we went to see the Five Year Engagement. It was hilarious. I just love Jason Segel. He is so cute and funny! And wow, Emily Blunt is really beautiful. I didn’t expect her to be so good at comedy! I will (maybe) make a post on the whole movie.

Saturday we went to the Joburg Pride Parade in Melville. My sister seems to think people will assume I am gay when they read this, so for the record I am straight! Everybody in my family is just activists for equal rights. That said I was really curious to see how it was. I should say I was very impressed. It was well planned, and the atmosphere was so cheerful. Everybody was having a good time and the costumes were amazing.

 Me and the little sister

 Sisters: Theranne, Melissa, Natasha

Then, like the day hadn’t been crazy enough, we went to Makiti’s the evening. It is this really Afrikaans dancing joint (I say joint since club doesn’t fit) and partied there until 2am.

Needless to say, I spent the entire Sunday recovering.

Was a pretty great weekend though.
