    Today is the day I start to live...

    Today I had an absolutely wonderful day....yes I did! Althought I got completely wet in the rain...it was beautiful today! :) I guess I just opened my eyes and for the first time actually took my own advice and looked at the wonderful things I have in my life: I have beautiful friends that I can share coffee with and talk to...I have a stunning pet...I'm doing interesting courses at university...I have all my limbs intact! Life is not so bad after all! heehee! I've always thought that happiness will be tomorrow when I find this or get that...but the truth is: happiness is right here, right now! ;) Take a big slice of it...after all...something good is bound to turn up...and that one good thing could make a million bad things seem insignificant! Mwhaaaaa!

    Updating my life..heehee!:)

    Halo everybody! Wow..it feels like I've been gone for centuries!!! heehee! But no...I'm still alive....unlike some fake-ass italian guy I know! Yes dude! If you're reading this...I think you're totally rude!!! But hey...I don't hold grudges anymore...this life's too short for that!
    So I had a really busy and hectic life...doing exams...rehearsing for 'Arabian Nights'..which went pretty well..it's over now!:( Which totally sux! Went to a really wild and totally awesome afterparty though! heehee...sharon darling...hahaha! you're a blast honey!!! and yes! you're my white sister for sure!!! :)
    Seeing major hotties everywhere...and think I might actually have a crush on someone...but oh I so can't!!!! ;)
    And now we have the disney channel on dstv.....yipeeeeee! I love disney! heehee! like duh! I'm gonna be Pocahontas in Disney World..remember??? I'm currently on a weeks holiday...then back to university for me!!!

    My marvelous epiphany!!!

    *yawwwwn!* Hmmmm....yep! I think it's time for me to finally admit : Love is for Fools!!!! And anyone who doesn't agree with me on that one...well...I've learned how to sword fight, so don't try to debate with me!!! *grrrrr* heehee! But truthfully...love is for fools..because...well...it just is ok! Anyhoo right now I seriously have no time for contemplating love because I am so incredibly busy in my life! My rehearsals for Arabian nights are piling up...its on the 20th of September!!!! Which is like next week people! *total and utter shock!* And I'm planning for my Italy trip...which is taking forever..me making decisions= verry verry bad thing! :) *YAWWWWWWN* I desperately need to sleep....so hope everyone is making themselves useful in life!;)
    Oh...I watched "The Break-up" with Vince Vaughn and Jeniffer Aniston....it wasn't what I expected..which is actually a good thing! I'm glad to see some Hollywood scriptwriters going in a different direction! What a breath of fresh air....it wasn't the greatest movie ever known to man...but it was very insightful. For instance....life does go on after a bad spat between you and your one-true love-i'm-so-gonna-marry-him man! Yeah! Surprised gurls? Piece of advice from me to you...carry on with your life...be the best you can be and if the right guy comes along...then he does! If not...well...then you'll just have to wait a little bit longer! :) Three cheers for female empowerment!!! heehee!
    Totsiens my vriende....Ek wens 'n baie goed dag vir jou!

    REAL LOVE????!!!!!

    By god! I think I've finally got it!!!! :) Ladybugs! Ladybugs!......for those of you who ever watched 'Under the Tuscan Sun' you'll know precisley what I mean! ;) You don't chase love....it finds YOU! And if you're chasing after it.....then that just means it ain't love!
    So my new moral code of love (which funnily enough denies ethical conduct!hahahaha!) is :
    If it makes you happy....and I mean butterflies people! ...then and only then can it constitute real love!
    If you waiting around all day for a sign that your someone loves you-that just means they ain't showing you love...and that just means...yes...they not good enough to deserve your love anyway! So move along!!!!
    Love is.....hmm...love is defnitely something you never have to worry about or long for....because when you have it..you just do!
     
    So there it is people! My new and improved theory of love....let me know if it has any scientific merit whatsoever! ;)

    What a life!!!

    Geez! What a day! What a life! I wrote my first Psychology Test for this semester!!!! It was multiple choice...but damn! I think I used up all my poor little brain cells! :) Apart from that harrowing experience...heehee...I had a rehearsal with my director (Marc) for Arabian Nights..I can safely say that my character work for the play seems to be coming along rather well! :) I know the first 3 pages of words...now only 37 more to go! Woohooo! :) But life is not so rosy and wonderful for me at home right now... :( Domestic issues....but hey! I guess everybody has there share of family disasters...but I'm really trying not to let it affect me! So cheers to being  Miss positive! I just want to concentrate on finishing my semester at university this year...and getting on that plane and leaving for Italy .... Rome! Beautiful Rome! :) I'm having a picnic with a friend tomorrow...so there's something else to look forward to...lots of coffee and cakes!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!! :) More rehearsals...and and Italian Oral! Today I learnt that babies smile instinctively...yeah! Even blind babies that don't even have anything to look at....so smiling is an instinctive human capability..did you know that??!!! Weird! Mostly everything else we do is learned from our experience with the world and others...so that really is a feat of great importance! :) I've been doing some thinking..and for those of you who don't know..I come from South Africa...apart from our sunny beaches and wonderful weather...we're known for the land of apartheid. Unfortunately..that was a time pre-1994 when racism prevailed...white people were thought of as superior and anyone dark-skinned was labeled black and unworthy. But thank to greats like Nelson Mandela the land 'freed' itself...but how free are we right now? They came up with the Truth and Reconciliation committee...they're job was to hear the nasty things people had done to them or their families...like seeing their son burnt alive...or walking into a room of decaying bodies to find their children who were killed only because they were 'black'! And trust me...there's worse stories! But this committee was suppose to hear the victims and the accused out...and allow them forgiveness! How do you as a human being decide whether the man who says he shot a little kid in the head...whether he should be given amnesty!!!??? What a world we live in! And honestly...this is happening now in places like America and Saudia Arabia..a similar brutality....is it right to blow up an innocent family all in the name of state power and what seems politically 'correct'??? Think about that tonight my friends! Our world is turning into a pit of hell....I just hope someone saves us before it's too late!

    Evolution and Intelligence......hmmmm

    I think my brain is totally fried! I spent the whole morning learning about learning!!! Heehee! Yeah! I 've been doing my psychology readings for my big test on wednesday...it's all about evolution and intelligence and Piaget theory of development....all very interesting....just very stressful! But when you think about the marvelous ways that each species can adapt to their environments and then think about how in heavens name they know how to do that...it's actually ingenius!!! *Yaaaawn* I am really tired now though..but I gotta study some more...so I can go out tonight and play with my sister (whose back home for a holiday!) :) I was listening to my coldplay cd's and damn they are so brilliant! Don't you just love the way they're able to pin point your exact feelings and hold it in an excrutiating gesture of melodic mourning??? Hahahaha! :) Yes...I know..I know ...I've gone completely mad! Thanks, but I already know that! ;) Cheers dear world..till I have something of mere importance to say! Mwhaaaaaaa!

    What is wrong with people today???!

    Ok...so I'm really really disappointed with the world right now for one many reasons...but the mostly : because of it's incessant need to make everything about BEAUTY!!!!!!!!!!! A girl in my class at university asked me if I wanted to do this promotion job thing....but get this..the only reason she asked me is because 'they looking for pretty indian girls'!!! Yeah! They not looking for brains! They not looking for humour!! They're damn looking for PRETTY!!!!!Grrrr! That really pisses me off! I should feel complimented many people say...but it just makes me sooo mad! Why? O why does being pretty have to be a requirement on everyones list??? It's so frustrating!!! So obviously..I will decline the job on the basis of my fundamental principles that I defy society and it's dumbass needs to make everything about those who seem fit for their stupid standards!!!! On a lighter note....my sister is coming for holidays on Thursday..so I'm really really happy about that! :)
    I've been reading 'Piaget's Theory of Intellectual Development'..for Psychology...it's really quite interesting! A little mindboggling at first...but it gets simple once you grasp the actual concepts! :)
    I must make a special mention for a blogger friend: Claudine!!! Bonjour mon ami! Je suis desole! Everytime I try to leave you a comment...my computer goes wack!!! But thanks for all your comments dudette! I really look forward to them! And damn! I love your bike!!!!
    Ok...now that I've done all those things...I better get back to my studies!
    A little piece of advice from me to you dear world ..... Never underestimate the power of now...for now is all you have, tomorrow may never come. Ciao!

    Live each day as if it is your last!

    It is very important for every one to remember that there is no such thing as 'the future'...if you live your life that way..always looking towards the future, then you will never find happiness in the here and now! So...it's time to stop fretting about the past...time to leave your dreams to the wind (and hope destiny will be on your side)...and live each second as if tomorrow will never come...it is by doing this...by savouring each present moment that you find enlightenment and peace in your self and others! :) I know this is a bit odd coming from me...but each new moment is a learning gift! So go out there and give your life a total blast! :) Who knows what you could find....

    Today's adventures....

    Today I learnt alot about Italian culture....it seems, in Italy...their Friday the 13th is actually Tuesday the 14th..interesting!!! Its like a completely different little world isn't it? I 'm so amazed! heehee! :)
    Apparently..Italians also don't really get married and have big weddings like before...they just live together! I guess that would be cheaper...???....and if you get divorced..you have to stay unmarried and on your own for 5 years!!! How odd!
    Oh..and the first floor is actually the second floor.....heehee! Very very interesting indeed! Besides my italian lecture learning about the house...and italian life...not much occurred today! We did have un ragazzo italiano take us on our italian pronunciation....but thats pretty much it! My friend was sooooo drunk today! Heehee! Way to go dude! But drinking and university don't really go very well I think! We sang along to Maneater (Nelly Furtado) and Loosen up my Buttons (Pussycat Dolls)..I love those songs right now..heehee! Isis (my cat) has been officially selected as part of my 'list of people I would take to my graduation' this year! heehee! Isis' reply: mmmmeow...now get me some food you irritating gurl!!!! HAHAHA! :)
    Hope everyone is having a splendid evening...and love is shining a starry glower upon their faces!!! Mwhaaaaaa!

But thanks for finally taking me! Heehee! Have a splendid day world!!!!!!!!!!!! Bye!

    Coz I need to go...need to get away tonight!

    "It's never really easy,but it's ok"!!!! Aaaargh! I went for my drivers license today...and guess what???? Before I even started the damn thing the examiner made me burst into tears!!!! Asshole! I'm really sensitive...one of my bad traits....and he was soooo rude and he screamed at me in front of all these people and I started crying....just great! :( So as you can expect....I was shaking and sniffing and couldn't park the car properly..so that was the end of that! But fear not! I will not give up so easily...I'm going for a standby on thursday....so wish me luck for that!!!!!!!! :) Todays lesson for everyone in this god forsaken planet is....when you're dealt really bad cards in life...don't be afraid to make mistakes Mwhaaaaa! Ok...now I'm going for a ride with my friend in his motorbike!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!! Ciao ciao!!!!

    Confused Dreamer

    Confused Dreamer your eyes are like the wind
    they never settle for long enough.
    All thats left when you've blown away
    are traces of you...memories of dust.
    Confused Dreamer...why do you make promises
    as if you can fulfill them
    when you know the morning sunrise will take you further away.
    You've passed your confusion on to me
    and left me here to face it
    I wrap those dreams in tiny boxes and send them back to you
    Confused Dreamer...live as my dream...confused...confused...forever.

    Is it possible to care too much???

    Bonjour world! I think I've finally had an epiphany...one of those startling discoveries that make you question yourself! So here's the story...all my life I think I've relied on others way too much to give me a feeling of acceptance and love. So I found this really great guy right...and I think I scared him away because I cared too much for him in such a short period of time! It's not that I'm clingy or psycho..please don't get me wrong dear world..it's just that I've been through so much ...so many lifetimes in the last couple years...that I've learned when something really good comes along, you just HAVE to appreciate it!!!! So I did...because I wanted him to know how special I feel he is..and now..well....he is no where to be found! Just vanished..off the planet!!! :( I guess I shouldn't have been so overwhelming in the first place...but it really makes me think..where do you draw the line when you fall in love? Isn't love about that euphoric feeling that makes you want to do crazy things? Is love not when you start going overboard with doing things..because you're just so goo-goo-ga-ga over the person??? I don't know anymore! But one things for sure....I will save myself now...for the right guy...and only once I truly know he is the right one...will I show him exactly how special he truly is...Mr Right....come and save me!!!! heehee...hmmm..you know what..I don't think I really need saving right now...I'm pretty happy by myself! So respect! To all those single gals (like me) out there in this male-dominated and ferocious world! You go sisters!!!! Have a great night everyone!!!!!

    YOU HAVE TO HEAR THIS STORY!!!!!!:)

    Hahahaha! I just HAVE to share this with you world!!!! Apparently, there exists a species (probably insects i think) that rely on deceptive measures to ...well, basically..'get sum'!!! Heehee! Yeah! What the males of this species do ,is they wrap a stone or pebble or something using their secretions and give it to the female under the impression that it is food of some sort ...the female in eager anticipation begins to unwrap her gift which takes some time, due to it being wrapped and all...and while she is busy doing this, the male has sex with her!!!! How queer!!!!???!!! Who would have thought that insects had the ability to be so deceitful!! It was just a bit of totally useless information that I just had to share with everyone! :)
    So you see...human males are not the only ones who bullshit us dudettes!!!! heehee! :)

    <punk rock princess>

    Time to think about 'yourself'....

    READ THIS CAREFULLY: AND BELIEVE YOU'RE BETTER THAN YOU THINK ;)
    Song lyrics : 'Fly' Hilary Duff
     
    Any moment, everything can change,
    Feel the wind on your shoulder,
    For a minute, all the world can wait,
    Let go of your yesterday.

    Can you hear it calling?
    Can you feel it in your soul?
    Can you trust this longing?
    And take control,

    Fly
    Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
    You can shine,
    Forget about the reasons why you cant in life,
    And start to try, cause it's your time,
    Time to fly.

    All your worries, leave them somewhere else,
    Find a dream you can follow,
    Reach for something, when there's nothing left,
    And the world's feeling hollow.

    Can you hear it calling?
    Can you feel it in your soul?
    Can you trust this longing?
    And take control,

    Fly
    Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
    You can shine,
    Forget about the reasons why you cant in life,
    And start to try, cause it's your time,
    Time to fly.

    And when you're down and feel alone,
    And want to run away,
    Trust yourself and don't give up,
    You know you better than anyone else,

    Any moment, everything can change,
    Feel the wind on your shoulder,
    For a minute, all the world can wait,
    Let go of your yesterday,

    Fly
    Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
    You can shine,
    Forget about the reasons why you cant in life,
    And start to try,
    Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
    And start to try, cause it's your time,
    Time to fly.

    Any moment, everything can change
