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 [...]

in pursuit of Job

By Marianne Williamson
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness
That most frightens us.
We ask ourselves
Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small
Does not serve the [...]

whats cutting at home

I left town at about the time that Koffi Annan came to mediate this round of talks and so im out of the loop here. whats the Government spokesman talking about now? have they released the names of the top Politicians who have been banned from visiting the US of A? whats this talk of power [...]

on a lighter note

I realized that many of my entries are dark and too “weighty” so hopefully this will change that perception. its meant to be a list of things that make me happy,sad,whatever or uniquely just me!

I am saved

I teach twelve year old Sunday School

My best flavour of anything is: vanilla, cinammon, cummin, coffee or mocha

I love [...]

oopsy

the pics below didnt quite chuck as well as id hoped to so oopsy but with time, they sure will so stick around y’all.
the YLT elections were leo- wonder how they went and whether the thing was at all effective with the different ministries bonding and what have you.

tutorials

something about Wits is that the undergrads are expected to do tutorials and as part of the obligations for me to get the Merit Award is that i have to put in 6 hours a week of this. i picked the freshers who ALL have to do Econ and il just say that they got [...]

valentines

i landed on Sunday morning after like three or more days of not sleeping.
 i went for registration yesterday and luckily my sister was there with me or else i would have been dazed till 2010.

i wonder

i just saw this blog that had pictures of kids dead and lying in a morgue as a result of this senseless murders that have erupted across most parts of Kenya. As a Christian, i know that we ought to submit to our leaders and this is regardless of whether i think they were elected [...]

while i was on holiday i changed my sleep pattern so i effectively became nocturnal and now that im back at the office, im SO paying for it- i feel like im paying with blood for the same! i have been averaging three to four hours sleep and i cant say im liking it at [...]

Choice

The stuff that is happening in kenya is out of this world.who knew or even imagined that things would ever disintegrate to such chaos and uncertaintity? at this point it doesnt matter so much about the elections and who rigged where or by how much, the bottom line is that many have lost their lives [...]

why am i awake now?

what do you do when all the familiar things that you have always fallen back to just disappear/change?
 what do you do when the stable and safe things in your life begin to shake?
who do you turn to when the one person whom you have always turned to when things are dire just isnt there anymore?
whom [...]

this i know

At the beginning of the year a friend of mine made a comment about how this year will turn out to be especially challenging and how we are going to be forced to adapt to the many changes that would be coming our way. I thought to myself what? how absurd? what is she on [...]

sand and blues

Im back at work now and what i learnt is that East or West my messy bedroom is definitely home. There is only so much of hotel food and the whole ambience that you can have in one week. On friday we had this really intense session that ended at 8 p.m. I was on [...]

break time

Christmas comes early when your office organizes a trip to the Coast and you all HAVE to be there for a week-why after all do we say Mombasa Raha? its been meeting after meeting and still more meetings thereafter mpaka when i get to my room at night-its only sleep and nothing else. TOTAL bummer is [...]

Reading Matthew 8 last week I was able to appreciate the Power of God and the fact that HE is able to come through for me despite the size of the calamity and any elephants i may be facing. Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I know that He [...]
