Things I am looking forward to

Brother's wedding:

Wedding plans are coming along nicely. Phoographer is booked, invites are designed.

Dresses have arrived (eeek!) I hope mine will fit me - I am delaying the collection so that I am not disappointed.

Wonder if I will pull off the safety pin look a la Liz Hurley? ha ha ha!

Trip to Thailand:

I have sacrificed alot to be able to pay off some of the credit card debt I have incurred to pay for this trip - not the right way,  I know but this my reasoning: - I need to fit into a bikini because chubby wubby me aint gonna be wearing no bikini looking like this.

By having to save money, I have less to spend on food, therefore eating less, losing weight (see where I am going with this?)

Plus I get to spend some fun time with Tee - we are gonna have a blast!

Vampire Diaries Season 3:

Apparently Damon starts off episode 1 without clothes - Woo Hoo!

The NaNoWriMo Challenge:

I have been playing with some plot lines in my head, but I am going to leave it to crunch time & see which way the creativity flows

The Conclusion of Harry Potter:

I am dying to see who dies at the end, then I want to attempt to read the books.

Springtime:

I am so over this cold weather

Year End Bonus (hopefully)

I have already spent this money in my head, but I really do need more clothes, none of my stuff fits me anymore - I am sure my washing powder is shrinking my clothes, it cant have anything to do with my Tim Tam addiction

Something new

Never thought I would like brown nail polish - but it kinda works - probably because it has sparkles in it!

Word of the day...

 PHOBAR


Acronym for "PHOtoshopped Beyond All Recognition."
A play on the the more popular acronym FUBAR: "Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition,"

PHOBAR refers to an image, usually a photo of a person, that has been retouched and airbrushed with digital image manipulation software on a computer so significantly, that the person in the photo is barely recognizable.

Of course she looks perfect in that photo, she was PHOBAR.

Internet Dating

I have met a few decent guys in the past from Internet Dating, no Soulmates as yet - but you never know I guess.

Recently I have realised how slim my chances of meeting new people really is.

Everybody is meeting people and I am in the office working.

I considered putting it out there & getting back onto the dating site.  After reading a few profiles, I began to lose hope.

I enjoy long walks on the beach (but he lives in Jhb)

I look for the profiles written from the heart, not what they think us women want to read.

Then I came across this one and he made me smile:

A man's job is to know what you're thinking before you have to say it.
He should always make you feel like the most important person in the room.
Hold you up to grab the stars.
And make sure the wine glass doesn't get empty after a tough day ;)

I'm a sporty outdoors type of guy and fun to be around. I am a Cancerian so am in control of my emotions and can be quite kind and loving (and hopefully looking for someone who feels the same).
The special people in my life are by far my biggest priority and I'll go to the ends of the earth for them. I'm quite happy with my life but looking for someone special who is fun and loving. But also to expand the circle of friends cause that really is true wealth. I get a long with most kinds of people cause I honestly always see the best in all people... imagine that ;)

More about me....
I like to cook but need a good taster. I'm patient except with taxis, active except on rainy days, funny if you like to laugh, serious if you didn't get the joke, intelligent and caring.

I also managed to make it through grade 1, therefore, I can spelle, make nice sintince, tork luk ah Joburga, and I can nearly tie my own shoe laces, but I'm no good at long division :p
But I'm pretty sure my parents brought me up properly with good morals, principals and respect, which you don't find too often anymore.

So if you read my packaging and you think it's good for you, please drop me a mail.

I'll probably even fake sick leave to spend the day with you if you don't feel like going to work, even though that's very dishonest ;)

And never fear, I know what to do with parktown prawns and rain spiders, jump on the couch and empty your deodorant on them *kidding*, but when they walk in the door and whisper your name in that dark sinister voice, just say 'no she's next door' :)

He describes his ideal match thus:

It's in a gentle smile and loving eyes
Someone who you can't miss in a crowd and can't take your eyes off
When you know you're in the wrong place when she's not there
When you're constantly thinking time flies
Someone who may not be perfect but you know she's an angel
An island in an ocean
When nothing else matters
A dream that you don't want to wake up from
When you're always trying to think of the right things to say
When she walks down the street, the sun shines, the birds sing and puppy dogs follow her.

Someone who can handle watching Jeff Dunham at least ten times, can handle being tickled

Oh ya, and someone who knows how to fix my Mnet, no seriously, if you can fix it I might even let you hold the remote control :)

I was all ready to sign up and contact him and then I saw that he has last logged in in May. Clearly some lucky girl has snapped him up. {facepalm}

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

The Good:

We have found a photographer for my brothers wedding - I really am having a blast planning this wedding.

The Bad:
I have to plan the wedding sitting on the toilet with my Blackberry because work is keeping me ridiculously busy
I am beginning to wonder if I am not being exploited too much.
I feel like slave labour and nobody is taking me seriously when I say I cant cope for much longer working at this pace

The Ugly:

My toe-nails | My eyebrows.
Peeling polish | Bushy
