Mirrors - Justin Timberlake

WOW.

This song gives me goosebumps.
Imagine this song was written for you? I would not let this man go. Jessica Biel is 1 lucky lady.

Aren't you somethin' to admire, cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror

And I can't help but notice, you reflect in this heart of mine

If you ever feel alone and the glare makes me hard to find

Just know that I'm always parallel on the other side




[Pre-Hook]

Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul

I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go

Just put your hand on the past, I'm here tryin' to pull you through

You just gotta be strong




[Hook]

Cause I don't wanna lose you now

I'm lookin' right at the other half of me

The vacancy that sat in my heart

Is a space that now you hold

Show me how to fight for now

And I'll tell you baby, it was easy

Comin' back into you once I figured it out

You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me

I couldn't get any bigger

With anyone else beside of me

And now it's clear as this promise

That we're making two reflections into one

Cause it's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me


[Verse 2]

Aren't you somethin', an original, cause it doesn't seem merely assembled

And I can't help but stare cause I see truth somewhere in your eyes

I can't ever change without you, you reflect me, I love that about you

And if I could, I would look at us all the time


[Pre-Hook]

Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul

I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go

Just put your hand on the past, I'm here tryin' to pull you through

You just gotta be strong


[Hook]

Cause I don't wanna lose you now

I'm lookin' right at the other half of me

The vacancy that sat in my heart

Is a space that now you hold

Show me how to fight for now

And I'll tell you baby, it was easy

Comin' back into you once I figured it out

You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me

I couldn't get any bigger

With anyone else beside of me

And now it's clear as this promise

That we're making two reflections into one

Cause it's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me


[Break]

Yesterday is history

Tomorrow's a mystery

I can see you lookin' back at me

Keep your eyes on me

Baby, keep your eyes on me


[Hook]

Cause I don't wanna lose you now

I'm lookin' right at the other half of me

The vacancy that sat in my heart

Is a space that now you hold

Show me how to fight for now

And I'll tell you baby, it was easy

Comin' back into you once I figured it out

You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me

I couldn't get any bigger

With anyone else beside of me

And now it's clear as this promise

That we're making two reflections into one

Cause it's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me


[Hook 2] x10

You are you are the love of my life

Life is 1 big bowl of emotions

This week I have:

Flirted
Blushed
Been tickled
Cried
Laughed
Stressed

It's been a rollercoaster week, but I'm looking forward to more exciting things to come in order to repeat the good ones!

Teenage Dream, Glee Version - better than Katy Perry

I have been having Glee withdrawals and decided to perk myself up with a little Blaine Anderson singing a rendition of Teenage Dream by Katy Perry - except I think he does it better than she does.

Feast your eyes / take a stroll down Glee memory lane:

Bakubang Pilansberg

Mom recently won an incentive at work - a trip for 4 to Bakubang in the Pilansberg.

Off Tee and I headed with mom and her friend for a girl's weekend away.

It was sorely needed for all of us and to be out amongst nature and enjoying the peacefulness that ensues when you are out of the city is a soothing balm for the soul.

We were so lucky to find ourselves rather close to a lone Elephant on 2 occasions (We suspect it may be an old bull who had been pushed out from his herd)

With my big fancy camera, I discovered that one definitely needs a zoom lens when animal spotting. With no digital zoom to speak of, I really had the worst photos when animals were in the distance drinking and playing in the water.

Mom & I - Self Portrait holding heavy camera!

This Bird thought he was a model, striking poses for ages!

"You're in my way"

Why did the zebra cross the road?

"This is my best side"

Peek-A-Boo!

Just another day in Paradise

Twinkle Twinkle little Star

Goodbye February!
Yet another month has flown by!

I began planning my friend's March Baby Shower in December and I think people thought I was crazy & over-eager.
With the start I have had to the year - I am in need of a holiday to prevent me from burning out (yes we are only 2 months in!)

I decided on Twinkle Twinkle Little Star as the theme and the colours are blue and lime green. (Yellow seemed too obvious) I am working on a tight budget so I have had to be inventive and use clever decor to make it look like I spent alot of money - but didn't.

The favours have been made thanks to my Mom helping me out - aren't they delightful?

My friend is making cupcakes with "Stardust" (Crunchie crumbled on top) and star shaped cookies.

I have the cutest ideas to print little labels to go around the glasses for when guests arrive.

I am making little streamers to hang behind our Mommy to Be - ribbon with little stars threaded onto them.

I made the invite online and I am using a website called PurpleTrail.com. They make it so easy to send reminders and keep track of the guests who have RSVPed. (It will even let you print out the guestlist at the end)

I have a poll for the guests to complete - What gift are you buying? 

This way, you can get an idea of what others will bring so that you don't all bring the same thing.

ie: Clothing: Newborn - 1 year, 1 - 2 years, 2 -3 years. Toiletries. Toys etc 

Super Easy and needed seeing as I am seriously juggling a lot at work.

What cute Baby showers have you been to recently and what made them so unique?
