A lot has been happening these past few weeks…havent got around to blogging about it all like a good blogger. Apologies!
Firstly I have to say with great glee that it was my 6 year anniversary with my adoring boyfriend yesterday!! The love of my life and I have made it six years, we’ve rolled with the punches, taken everything with a pinch of salt, and had some amazing times together! I am truly blessed to have such an amazing, caring man by my side. And when I got home from gym yesterday, I was allowed to shower and then swept away to dinner at a restaurant of my choice! Had some awesome wine, starter mussels, and steak and calamari at John Dory’s (my first choice was my best friend’s restaurant, but alas they’re closed on Mondays). So here is to another six more years, and then some! I love you, dear heart! Thank you for helping me be a better person each and every day and for putting up with my many quirks. I love you!
Secondly, I bought myself a new gaming mouse, so hopefully my CoD4 skills will improve! I got myself the beautiful Razer Lachesis in blue (I was sad it didnt come in green). Its uber smooth and fast, but I have to still get used to it in CoD4 haha. OC is this weekend, so I’ll get some practice in then (and yay for sleeping over!).
A week or two ago I lost someone who I thought was a friend. I tell you, I’ve never had to put so much effort into a friendship before! I’ve also never been lied to so much by someone I thought cared about me. I guess I probably should have realised it was doomed from the start, but I so did want it to work out, so I tried to ignore those negative issues. Things started getting a bit hectic when he started purchasing inappropriate things for me in the form of sex toys and lingerie. Yes, you read correctly. Despite my many mentions about my boyfriend and upcoming engagement, he still persisted (with a shock, I realised he’s done this with multiple women!!). It saddened me, because we could have been awesome friends. I think he’s lonely. I believe that will change when he gets a job and starts living. I did put in a good word for him with a friend who works with my bf and knows some people (heavens! I wonder if he thought I’d try get him a job at my bf’s work haha bf would soooo not let that happen!), so maybe something will come of that, but I doubt it. A lot of people I’ve spoken to think he needs to mature a little before he can settle into a real job. But how…? Maybe he’ll make the Dog Unit in three years if he persues that career. I think it’d do him some good, despite his mother vehemently disagreeing with me. Oh well, maybe she knows him in a way I never did. Still, I think a boot up the butt would wake him up enough to do something with his life. Things dont come without effort. Despite the friendship going sour, I do wish the best for him. Especially if he didnt lie about his childhood like he lied about everything else…his parent’s need a good boot up their butts for that! Makes me so mad!
Speaking of effort, I’ve finally started the process of applying to Unisa for a BEd degree….eek! I apparently have to apply online, and I got to Part 3 in Step 1 where they ask my Exam Number from when I was in Matric/Gr 12/Std 10…like I still had that haha. I had to phone my school and they called me back when they found it (their online archive only dates back to 2005…I was 2001) but when I tried to submit it on the Unisa website, they only wanted 10 digits, not 13!? I’ll have to phone tomorrow and find out what the deal is.
My poor car is also having a bit of trouble. After Girls’ Night I found my car was smelling like petrol (gas) when I drove her, so the following Saturday I called my cousin out to take a look. Turns out my fuel pipes were worn out, so I had to have those replaced. And my exhaust has a large hole rusted into it. Le sigh. Fuel consumption goes down because of that…grrr! I was wondering why I used to get around 12km per litre and now I get around 9km…that must be it! And lastly, my gearbox is sticking when changing from 1st into 2nd…so much all at once! I wont even mention the tappets hahaha. At least I’ll be pampering her a little bit on Sunday…gonna give her a bit of a polish. V’s doing her car, so she thought we could do it together…yay!
Other than that, I cant think of anything more to tell you…I guess I’ll have some more news next week. New poll up, about mouses…please do vote




Ooh 6 years already! It feels like forever hey? We got married 2 months before our 6 year anniversary, going to be together for 8 years next year!
I am too much of jealous (and now I sound exactly like my gay friends lol) about the mouse! Mine is so crappy but will be searching for a new one very soon…
Your friend would have freaked me out completely! It’s sad that you lost your friendship now, but he do sound a little over friendly. What did the bf say of all this?
You found your number yet? So happy for you for following your dreams!
I will be blogging somewhere today, I’ve been absolutely terrible with my blog, so many things happening at moment here…
Ooo 8 years! Congrats!
As for the mouse, I can thoroughly recommend either the Razer Lachesis or Deathadder! Both are awesome!!!
Bf was very tolerant about everything…the toys were the last step…I think after that, even when I told him about the photos sent to me he just shook his head in disbelief haha.
And regarding Unisa, I got my number and applied
Will post again when I hear more!
