Julius Malema is NOT the only one…

I absolutely hate writing about him, mainly because Julius Malema is an idiot of the highest order and writing about him just gives him more credibility than he actually deserves! However, I wonder if I’m just turning into my mother and her generation…because I cannot understand this age bracket

I had a very pleasant Monday

Since I worked on Saturday, I had today off work. What a pleasant day it turned out to be. I got up, did my yoga workout had breakfast and headed back to bed for another hour. Then I completed a UNISA assignment and uploaded it online. (Thank goodness for

My new life as a Vegetarian

We had a workshop at the office on Saturday that included lunch. When I eventually got to the table after putting equipment away, there was nothing left on the one vegetarian platter provided. Of course other platters overflowed with meat-filled dishes, with plenty left over. And that’s generally

To Wear or Not to Wear a Bafana Bafana Jersey

Maybe I’m just being contrary as usual, but I don’t understand this whole story about wearing a Bafana Bafana jersey to show your support for our national soccer team at the World Cup. What on earth is that all about? Firstly I will not wear any team sport jersey.

OMW! Not that Freaking Vodacom AGAIN!

Vodacom is once again testing my last nerve. Here’s the latest annoyance: I bought 500MB of data for my cellphone on Saturday morning through FNB’s cellphone banking.  Nothing unusual. Monday morning I woke up to one of Vodacom’s SMSes to tell me my bundle has expired!  What the hell

7de Laan is the Best Soapie in SA

Last weekend 7de Laan was voted the best soapie in the land by viewers.  It  shows 7de laan fans are the most loyal as they actually voted. I can totally relate… This last week was extremely busy and stressful for me.  I had to come home from work and immediately
