Memory is a curious little device isn’t it? According to Wikipedia, it is defined as an organism’s ability to store,retain and subsequntly retrieve information. This is the psychological definition of it and at its root we can see is information. How far back can our memory take us- whats the earliest thing you can easily remember [...]

all my neighbours have tennis courts

its actually the truth and Im still not used to it. That and the fact that there are no traffic lights here…only robots. The mandazis here have mince meat and other additives as well. The girls wear all sorts of non-clad in the summer and I’m always gob-smacked at how jerk cuts with them. This [...]

breathe out

I got a research topic of sorts and I just emailed my lecturer to tell her as much. I am about as ambivalent as they come. Its something to do and well I can sleep tonight. GOOD for me is what.

I just finished reading Ian McEwan’s Atonement. I dont know about the movie and I think at this rate, I might just have to do coz it was another what was that story about again? Of late thats been the case and now me I’m left wondering whats the story with all the books I [...]

masks

In my first semester at Daystar, I read this book about masks and why people are afraid to show each other who they really are- the exact name escapes my memory for the moment but yeah, it was a real eye opener. I think that in life we all need some kinds of masks to protect [...]

totally mindless

 Im feeling pressured to post pictures on this blog and anyway i need to clear my phone of some of them so I might as well post them here and liberally over the next few blog entries too.
Im finally have a well deserved break for like the next two weeks. I am dreading April coz when [...]

love in the time of cholera

Head under water
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while
The breathing gets harder, even I know that
You made room for me but it’s too soon to see
If I’m happy in your hands
I’m unusually hard to hold on to
Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well, but you make this [...]

i will overcome

I wish i was above, swimming away but instead I’m fretting here about whether I am good enough for this year of school and fighting off the panic that creeps upon me when I think of failing. I am asking myself whether I really wanted this thing (I DID) but right now, I cant like [...]

funny thing is life

isnt just funny that when you are goofing up in life no one will tell you straight up to your face but the moment you decide to chuck it and do the right thing is when you get the handshakes and the claps on the shoulder about how its all the best you know. huh? [...]

now

If I had the opportunity to read minds, I would so take it and not for any philanthropic reasons. Purely selfish and self centred. To know what makes people cheat on their partners? Meet and plot wars? Have no faith in God? What mean things are they now thinking? For my tutorials, what are they [...]

how many colours?

Living in SA, one cant help but notice how everything is broken down and viewed in terms of colour, even things that have no colour value. this is the land of apartheid, I THINK WE ALL KNOW but must it all come down to whether you are White, Coloured, Black or Asian? Whats this all [...]

why cant i write my long essay like this?

Does this ever happen to any blogger out there? That you begin with a perfect post in mind and then shortly, its not there at all?
 I read a mag leo that was talking about relationships and when to walk away from them. Whether its just a rough patch or its time to call it all [...]

my mouth just went uh!

it hit me today why they call this secular education!
 while walking to the Lib i passed this cafe and i saw the Lesbian whom i blogged about here last month. they were all playing with each other in a lovey lovey manner and me i was just gawking with the whole saliva dribbling down my [...]
