What am I thinking?!

Larders

Firstly, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I know, I know! Before you start shouting and poking me with tridant I'm sorry I have been quiet for so long. Life happens and sometimes all one needs is solitude from the world. To quieten the voices, regroup and strategise. The bad voices are currently being slaughtered by the good voices. There is a crazy war going on in my head kids! Nuclearic proprtions!!!

Yes, its another year and I still have a sense of humour equivalent to that of a 14 year old. Live with it.

So.... New Year's resolutions.

1. Get back into my studies. I really need to finish my first degree now. Its becoming such a mission that sometimes I wanna punch someone in the face. Getting UNISA to reply is harder than asking the President if he is a silk-boxers kind of guy!

2. Read 12 books. This means I need to read one book a month. The first four books I will read are: Heroine of the Dessert (been battling to finish it), Spud (I keep starting), Of Warriors, Lovers and Prophets (also, I keep starting and never follow through) and The Dream Deferred (a Tabo Mbeki autobiography). I shall finish Heroine this weekend and begin with The Dream Deferred.

3. Drop 35 kilograms. That's a sh!t load of weight but its only half of what I need to lose. My poor body has been abused long enough. She needs a break. A carefully thought out plan needs to be implemented and accounted for.

4. Career. I dont know about this but something needs to change and soon.


I cant think of anything more to say with regards to New Year's resolutions. The year is but a fetus (ha!) so I'll keep adjusting here and there. A 'business plan' needs to be drawn.

I cant put this off anymore. I have to tell you guys coz you will keep me accountable. Your asses HAVE TO and BETTER keep me accountable. This year, in a month's time actually, I will be walking the Surfer's marathon. It is 21 kilometers of mostly water, sand and rock. The route is very scenic. Its right at the beach and on a scale of 1 - 10 in terms of difficulty - its a raging hormonal bitch.

In a few minutes, I will walk my first 5km in over a year!!! This is in preperation of the Surfer's marathon. I'll take pics and share with you my lovely Larders.

How was your holday? New Year's resolutions?

To my dear friend who commented on a previous post, I promise to reply tomorrow.

Off to bashing my head against the wall now! (I still think I'm crazy for doing the surfers)

Much love
