It's all about MEEEE!!!

Grahamstown/Durban/Johannesburg - catch me if you can..., South Africa
Lots of words rhyme with my name(hence the highly original signature above); I'm easily obsessed with anything that catches my attention; I have to have 7 ice cubes in my drink; I LOVE animals - especially my dogs, yes I do make kissy faces at them, don't hate; I'm useless at keeping up with current affairs, yet perfectly capable of keeping up with celebrity news; I hate crowds and bananas; I don't like House music; I love buying things, but i don't like throwing things away; I believe people need something to believe in; I think I know everything; If Eward existed, he would not look like Robert Pattinson, That Harry Potter epilogue destroyed everything; I bet HP is actually gay and shacks up with Draco Malfoy and finds out that Snape is his real father... ...and all those other cliched cliches. I like cake; but if you're going to bribe me, do it with chocolate. Or money.

Today This Girl Dies of Boredom

So yesterday woke me up at 7:00am with a grunt, a snore (charming, I know) and the charming tones of BBGrooves - Interlude, a tune to which Blackberry assumes  people want to wake up. That aside, I stumbled to my feet and was somehow dressed, ready and out the door by 7:30am for my Chinese lecture at 7:45. 7:40am found me outside the door of the Geog10 classroom staring blankly at it's apparent emptiness. Chinese was at 9:35am. Computer Science was at 7:45.

It was one of those mornings.

The carnage even had the nerve to continue throughout the day - my comp sci lecturer thinks he's the coolest thing since sliced bread, I nearly fell down the stairs and the University carnival that night was a complete flop - if not for anyone else, then just me I guess... It was alright though, I had a bit of a zombie-zone-out thing going on all day, so it was all just vaguely amusing tinged with the sense that I was missing something. I did get to watch Easy A again though with one of the girls in my res, Claire, and it was as awesome as ever.:)

So aside from all my foolishness of yesterday, I'm fine, how are you? Or should I say, 'Wo hen hao Ni ne?' Chinese is probably on of the coolest things ever, despite the fact that to say some of the words in the necessary tones, some seriously weird facial expressions are required...

For all those wondering by now why I'm actually writing this blog in the first place - I'm not a celebrity (*gasp*or am I?) - the answer is predictably simple (I'm not generally a very deep person) - I have to. For Journalism 1, at some point, we have to do something like blogging, or so I'm told. So I am gracing you all with my writing presence just to get the hang of the whole thing, not being a big writer in the first place. And I just like writing about myself. That's the only reason really... And I could write about the multitudes of celebrities that have no effect on my life whatsoever (alright fine, maybe they do, just a little), a year-long project that I'll never finish or a subject that I know absolutely nothing about, but have an opinion on anyway but I like talking about myself so that's all been done to death anyway...

Enough about me though, how are you? Did you watch <Insert generic-popular-series-of-the moment here> last night? Please, do feel free to comment in the box below, I know now what all those blog writers are going through when they keep asking for comments, it feels a bit weird to just be randomly writing stuff and sending it off into the great World Wide Web...

I'll leave you with another quote today, this one again from Easy A:

"We've had nine classes together since Kindergarten... ten if you count Religion of Other Cultures, which you didn't because you called it science fiction and refused to go. "

  1. Hey I am fine thanks. Just reading your awesome blog and I have to say that some of it made me smile. For that was really hard to do, Because life isn't always what we want it to be. Yet we still recklessly strive to get Fame and Glory! You are an awesome person. Speaking Afrikaans, English, German and Chinese, (and who knows what more). You've traveled the world around, (vertically and Horizontally) And still you look the world in the eyes and say, "BRING IT!". You are my inspiration and I am liking you thought and daily comments on life... really driven to be the best you can do. Please never ever change the awesome person that you are! :)

  3. Do I have to have some weird & wonderful name to comment?? At last I have found a way to keep up with your life without nagging on facebook or a trillion begging sms'......
    My thought for the day.... Why do Telkom technicians only work on Saturday & Sundays and not Monday to Friday?
    And you thought only you could be random...

  4. Thanks to all for the comments:) @'anonymous' - thanks man, appreciate all the love! I'm not sure bout the Afrikaans and German bit, but I'm working on the chinese, slowly but surely;) Glad to know my writing is doing a little good to the world in general...
    @Queen of new beginings - I'm in SA for good now (at least til after uni i think), how much longer are you in the UK for?
    @OKLILUBB - no mom, you can say whatever you want, and we both know you will anyway:)I thought this was a good way to do the'killing birds with stones' thing...Because Telkom is weird, and they can do what they want...Or they could, until that other provider came along - what's it called again???
