A picture paints a thousand words

For those of you who were wondering why i've been moaning for the past two years... I think this is histerical!

About me nr 11 - 20...

As promised - here's the rest...

11. I get extremely bad PMS. So bad that i almost always cry for at least a couple of days before my period arrives. I usually feel like my life is ending. BUT miraculously on D-Day all emotions disappear.

12. I hate being wrong and will go to great lengths to prove any point i might have. When i do realise i am wrong though i turn into a groveler asking for forgiveness for my stupidity (also to great lengths).

13. i have been seeing a shrink for 1 ½ year now and sometimes feel like i am not making any progress. But that’s insane (excuse the pun). I also believe that if a poll were to be taken on whether or not i’m seeing a shrink 99% would say they don’t believe i am.

14. I never really liked babies/children until my friends started having them. Now i cannot get enough and really feel a loving connection when i am holding these babies. I might have a natural instinct with children that i never knew about.

15. I hate taking chances and always stay on the safe side of life – at any cost. How boring!

16. I am a bit of a chameleon and mostly mold my personality to fit into the situation that i’m in. If you don’t like smoking i won’t smoke in your presence. If you only talk about everyday nonsense i will never discuss anything deep with you. It’s gotten better though J

17. I am scared to death of men and relationships. I never really learnt how to deal with it and make damn sure that i am not put in a situation where i would have to.

18. My little toe on the right foot cannot touch the ground and is resting on my other toe. I told my mom i must have broken it when i was little but she said i must have been born that way. <>.

19. I have been biting my nails since i was little.

20. I don’t wear make-up because i don’t like the attention i get when doing so.

I would like to thank the academy...

Found this on Postsecret and thought it was very funny, especially considering points 4 and 8 below...

10 things about me...

I found this really awesome blog for a chick in Joburg. It’s called Peas on Toast and she is histerical. One brilliant idea that she came up with is a list of “25 things about myself”... It can be funny, dark, deep or just plain sad. Point is it is really interesting to read and i think we should start our own little “what about me” thing... I’ll start with my own “Top 10” - soon to be followed by the rest of the 25 facts (not enough time now)... maybe you know all the facts, maybe you don’t... but at least it might keep you entertained for a while.

10 things i know about me:

1. I’ve never been overseas and wonder sometimes if i missed out on the big time. At this stage of my life i’d like to take a year off and backpack around some strange places.
2. the most special i have ever felt in my life was when my friend Rudie kissed me on the cheek and complimented on how pretty i looked (it was at our Matric dance).
3. i love pizza and could easily guzzle down a LARGE, but i can’t eat more than a few spoons of pasta.
4. when i was younger i used to daydream that i was a huge star on stage and would bring people to tears with my singing
5. the first snog i had was at the yearly “skou” and i was 14. After the guy kissed me i asked him: “what did you do that for?” Nice.
6. I kinda have a split personality – well sometimes i truly believe that there is this whole different person inside me wanting to come out. Weird i know.
7. i love movies and will sometimes sit in front of the computer and do multiple trivia quizzes from the internet. I check what the best rank is i can get. If it’s not way up there i quickly close the window.
8. I love the Oscars – not so much because i care about the movies that win the awards, but rather the faces of the actors who win. I used to tape the show and watch them receive their awards over and over again.
9. i have a fear of public toilets. I am so scared that people would realise that i actually also need to shit. So i wait for everybody to leave and do all kinds of evasive manouvres .
10. I am scared to death that people might think i am too deep, so i frequently downplay my intelligence so that everybody thinks i’m just goofy.

That’s me – how about you...

Happy Valentine's Day

hey everybody, happy valentine's day! ALTHOUGH i really don't believe in the Valentine's Day concept that much i hope you are all spoiled rotten. And to keep up with the spirit i read the following definition of love, which i in turn LOVE...

LOVE is...

Love is letting them believe their historical fact is right, by pretending you know no different.

Love is them feeding you, mouthful by mouthful, while you drive back from a party at 2:00am.

Love is physically aching when they're away.

Love is still asking them how they take their tea, because sometimes they like milk and sometimes they don't.

Love is sucking it up when they see ex's, but still getting jealous deep down inside.

Love is somehow managing to pop their name into a sentence every five minutes. Meetings, bathroom queues, the Samoosa Lady...

Love is not only accepting their bunion, but finding it sexually attractive.

Love is feeling projected and endless sadness for them when they're sad.

Love is thinking about their legs All. Day. Long.

Love is them being the first person you call when:
You get big news
Have a crisis
Have to tell someone something hilarious

Freebird

I am standing at a crossroad – do i fight to hold on to that i know or should i let go and freefall into the wonder of life...

Is this my time? Am i ready? Or am i looking for salvation to take my hand and lead me into a glimmer of hope.

The question is – what defines you? The laughter in a joke or the seat in front of you desk? What defines me? The answer to that brings my true salvation.

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it badly,
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you'll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Lord help me, I can't change.
