40 day love dare! ADVERTISEMENT..u want in??

2010-03-12T16:19:00.003+01:00

Inspiration? Movie: Fireproof
Dedication? 40 days of random acts of love & kindness
Mission? Spreading the love...

WHY? Showing love isn't about feelings! Coz that means that when u feel horrible, u act horrible to people around u. Love is about ACTION. Doing things that make someones day a little bit brighter, and yours as well!

FOR ALL THOSE WHO CONSIDER THEMSELVES...independent minded, FUN, spontaneous, GIVING...

INTERESTED?? Lemme know...we can get this thing going!

New hangout joint! a.k.a socializing....

2010-03-11T15:38:00.001+01:00

Finally!
Picture it; a group of girls drop of from the bus, ties lose, sweaters off, bags hanging, and lots of LOUDDDD laughter and disses!

There is a new joint opening between this month and next at Valley Arcade. Even a "quiet" (i'm not really) girly like me...you'll be seeing me around there with the Bus 4, Kile...gang! The usual suspects (V, Sensitive (that's u babe, remember peermentoring names??), Lyd- those white glasses rock!, Try, Dai, Lath...and whoever else!)

This brings me to my new focus;

Be outgoing. Being shy won’t win you any new friends. You’re going to have to get out there and talk to people. You cannot be afraid to talk to others.
Whether it’s chatting up people in class or at lunch, sitting and talking to different people, getting out and about, getting the best grade on tests or winning an athletic contest, make your name known. Everybody needs to know who you are.
Like people and show it. Be friendly and interested in people, and many of them will like you back. You don't win popularity by hiding in the corner or expecting people to approach you and suddenly appreciate you for the true gem you are. If you're shy, make friends with really outgoing people. They will encourage you to talk to other people, and soon it will be easy for you. Make sure to talk about things that other people are interested in.
People are really passionate about talking about their interests.(Be yourself) If you're the humorous type, throw in a joke now and then, but only when the time is right. You'll look stupid if you joke around at the wrong time.

Urban dictonary- 'bout music, disses, facebook

Toilet Mummy-
When someone is so concerned about toilet seat germs, they cover the seat with half a roll of toilet paper, leaving it to appear like it has been mummified.

Slow Burn-

An insult that doesn’t sink in for awhile

shuffle shame -
"Shuffle shame" is when your mp3 music player is playing on speakers in shuffle mode, and somebody enters the room at the exact moment the worst song of your collection is being played.

Facebooger-

An unsightly or unwanted comment or post left on your facebook profile or wall.

e.g.

Ah man! Someone left a facebooger on my prom picture... :(
How do I get rid of this facebooger that someone just left on my wall?!

Faceboo-hooer-
A Facebook whiner. Someone whose Facebook status updates constantly refer to a state of sadness, despair or gloom.

Faceboocrastinatin'-

Faceboocrastinating is the putting aside of primary tasks in order to spend time on facebook

'Hey man do you want to join our study group?'
'Yeah I'll join but I'll probably just spend my time faceboocrastinating.'

Facebook Chicken-

When two people would like to add each other as friends, but don't want to be the ones who make the friend invitation. This puts them in a game of Facebook Chicken, where they wait until the first person gives in to making the first add invitation.

Hit and Run!

"Human beings are a mass of complex contradictions"

Relationships are a wierd thing...there are situations in life that are really hard to prepare for. How do you talk to someone who is so trapped in a web of deceipt and pain?

Where do you draw the line?

Is it ok to detach from a friend even if they have confided private things? Even if what they tell you goes against everything you believe and they know it? What the difference between setting boundaries and judging?!

People almost always have different expectations of intimacy.

Some people want to move right next to your heart, set up camp and damp their dirty, filthy laundry all over your arteries!!

so how does one gauge....what next....

Perception; Catch 22

2010-03-10T16:44:00.001+01:00

The schoolbuses begin to stream out of the parking...
Gently rollicking, rumbling underfoot
Musky, slight stench of school snacks and plastic seat covers,
Sunshin streaming
windows faintly layered in dust
bag straps-seat belts dangling...

BURSTS of laughter!
Shrieks and fits and belly-aching fun!

Random, POINTLESS chatter,
Uncomfortable sleeping positions...
necks twisted , legs suspended, hair ruffled snores muffled...

Fashion & Form & Femininity. Alice bands!

2010-03-09T15:26:00.004+01:00

Not only are headbands one of the biggest trends of 2010...
A beautiful headband is the fashion staple of every female!

Reasons?
-Headbands disguise bad hair days and frizz

-They are a chic and subtle way of expressing yourself...ur fav color, ur mood...even the most conservative girlie could wear something risque like leather or animal print!

-SOOO girly and feminine, in these days of butch, aggressive fashion...it's oh so gorgeous to be ladylike!

-what other fashion piece could be so practicle and comfortable?

-seriously how long does it take to put one on?!!

"Honesty is a complex" by Juju

Today is International women's day!! I have it from a credible source (my Romanian teacher) that in some of the more romantic, parts of the world this is a less-cliche, less-overhyped Valentines like day....never would have guessed that.

Thought of the day.

Treat the women in your life, ur sister, mom, auntie, niece, friend with the love and tender care they deserve. They played a part in who you are today, so give that little something. A smile, a compliment, a hug, a positive thought. Share laughter, fun, joy, sadness and most importantly LOVE!

How you choose to express yourself
It's all your own and I can tell
It comes naturally
You follow what you feel inside
It's intuitive, you don't have to try
It comes naturally
And it takes my breath away what you do so naturally.
You are the thunder and I am the lightning
And I love the way you know who you are
And to me it's exciting
When you know it's meant to be
Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
When you're with me, baby
You have a way of moving me
A force of nature, your energy
It comes naturally (You know it does)

Me and my girls

2010-03-05T15:50:00.004+01:00

Shout out to a certain girlie with whom we share many heartfelt bus ride talks (I hope ur reading this!). Our conversation got me thinking about the special place my girl friends have in my heart.
There are acquintances, friends, enemies, random people who annoy you in queues and then there are my sisters.
A certain girlie who I've had TOTALLY amazing conversations with in the field and through lots of AMAZING emails...another certain girlie living in France who I shared lots of boy talk...one who is spontaneous,fun, crazy, wild and streetwise who just bought me a soda and chips this afternoon (thanks babe), a coy, clever certain someone with whom I'm hoping to blog with...
I love you all in the same, but really different way...

Seven steps to your heart...

2010-03-04T18:34:00.006+01:00

Seven steps.
God knows, how I needed help...
Weeping on my bedroom floor,
Silently hidden, behind my door.
Searching, I was anxious with fear,
Wanting to hold you oh so dear
My heart belongs to my Saviour/
And that truly changed my behaviour!

The doubt was gone,
I no longer did mourn,
For when love and mercy found me,
You were right there for me to see.

Vanilla twilight...

2010-03-04T18:34:00.005+01:00

Potent hue of the blue in your eye,
the bluest eye.
The shadow that falls over your eyes,
in deep thought,
our piece of the beautiful ,
the glimmer of life!
the warmth of your breath,
the thud thud thud from your heart...
the stillness of your spirit your firm yet gentle embrace...

Second sight...

2010-03-04T18:34:00.003+01:00

Dewy, misty, chilly morning of 27th January 2010, 21st anniversary of my dear parents briskly, determined I walked to wait under the Kunde Rd signpost, for the bronze colored school bus... past the mansions past the manicured lawns under the shade of the trees there he was tall, majestic, restrained, white cotton shirt blue jeans, bagpack slang over one shoulder confident, our paths cross, you stare in awe at your love the one you love the most the one who is yours... I am here.

Love letter in the sands...vows...

2010-03-04T18:30:00.003+01:00

Til death do us part...
to heal wounds and hurt,
God's servant to you on earth and in heaven...
to comfort and nurture your spirit
to show you unfailing love and tender kindness...
to be your helpmate and playmate...
to share your faith, fears and foes your praise,
LOVE, success and your strength
to be ONE in body, spirit, mind and truth.

Bow...

2010-03-04T18:06:00.004+01:00

Let me begin...
"Leave the lost and dead behind,
I will not bow and I will not break
I will not fall and I will not fade" band Breaking Benjamin, song; I will not bow

Innocence; is something that should never be lost.

Being girlie,
childlike,
fragile,
faithful,
believing,
kind,
POSITIVE,
enthusiastic,
cheerful...are beautiful valuable things!

Being submissive,
patient,
loyal,
merciful are the most desirable...

Having a gentle and quiet spirit!!
