So where was I? oh here. Has anyone else been having difficulty connecting to the site?

And the update begins with me being on holiday!
haha, no, I am lying. I am writing exams next week. Two exams. On what I have no idea. I think I have some idea. maybe. oh well.

I couldnt go to my grans funeral due to having a chest infection. My aunt has severe lupus which has resulted in her having incredibly weak lungs. if I made her sick, she would literally land up in ICU. I am buying her a germ bubble for her birthday.

seeing as no one wants to hear about boyfriends, we shall skip right over that and go onto something interesting.

I have started watching Hannibal. The series. I am not sold on it. It feels like I am watching a bizarre mix of Manhunter and Red Dragon with a touch of Silence of the Lambs. Like it should be awesome but something is not quite right.

Otherwise, that is it from this peanut gallery.

oh, wait, video.



hmmm... seemed to have a random commentary going on there

I am sick. blah. I am going to have to go see a doctor person because if WebMD is right I am about to keel over and die at any second

I do however, believe it is just the flu.

So, quick catch up.

University News

I completed my literature review on procrastination on time (look at me, I am an active procrastinator - woots) just to find out we had another week extension. The weird little program told me I only had 4% plagiarism which is good. Although random.

I have to write up a reflexive report with my group on our Mock Needs Assessment (the real one to be run next term). Our group topic which we wish to discuss with the youth and help break down myths, social stigmas and all those funny little beliefs that people get about such things is Same-sex relationships, Culture and Identity. How cool is that? Very cool in theory. in practice teenagers suck. But more on that next semester. (for those of you who don't know, our first semester in SA starts in January/February and ends June/July then the second semester starts June/July and ends October/November).

I start my exams mid June. I only write two. I need to start studying. *sigh*

Family Stuff

My Mom and Dad managed to get on a plane and fly to Portugal after both their stints in the hospital. My mom has had a lovely time so far but is a bit confused now that they are in Dubai for three days. My Dad still can't walk so that means shopping and pretty much everything else is out.

I am now calling my Dad Stumpy.

My Gran died this last Sunday. I am still feeling surreal about it. Like it is happening in another lifetime or to someone else. I think I just have to much going on. As cpkz mentioned last night I am probably going to break down soon when everything eventually hits me. I guess I am going to have to keep on running.

Love Stuff

I love my boyfriend. he has been awesome. and cuddly. I like cuddles. We also been playing Raskulls which is really awesome.



It is a really cute little platform game where you race opponents and zap blocks and do all sorts of cool little puzzles. If you are looking for a fun xBox live game, I highly recommend this.

On the xBox side, my goodness can my boyfriend moan. The xBox One, apart from having the most original name, is the bane of the darling boys life at the moment. He claims it completely misses the point of gaming. Who cares about TV! If he wanted TV he would get a DsTV subscription damnit!

I just think it is an eye-sore



Random YouTube Video



And that is my catch up. Off to go get better and maybe do some research on same-sex practices. I think I may need redTube or YouPorn for this

And we have arrived at yet another new blog.

Yes, I know, it has taken me forever and a day. Good reason though: College.

That is right ladies and gentlemen, my life has been consumed by college. Mostly my HIV/AIDS Service learning course which has taken an interesting turn of events whereby I am expected to teach and encourage young men (19-22) to be aware of any stigma they have around homosexuality. Of course, the word homosexuality is full of horrendous connotations so I have opted to rename what we are doing as Sexual Identity and Same Sex Relationships. That way, preconceived ideas are easier to mash up and throw out the proverbial window.

For those of you who know, and or are interested, my Dad's op on his foot went well. Except the darling man decided to go to work, walk across a parking lot and basically get all sorts of nasties trapped in his not completely closed cast. This, coupled with the fact that he has no immune system due to being on methotrexate (for rheumatoid arthritis) led to him getting septicemia. No worried, all is well and he no longer has a deformed foot excreting pus and other nasty body fluids all over the place. He also is behaving like a good patient and we have decided that he may indeed fly to Portugal next Sunday. If you are about to ask whether he is in shape to fly from Durban to Johannesburg to Dubai to Portugal the answer is a resounding No. But who is to argue with stubborn and at least this gives me the house to myself for 10 days. Well, my lovely siblings will be around but I am never really at home the same time as them so its pretty much the same thing.

On that note, I did promise videos but I didn't have time.

So, here is one from Impossible Astronaut day (or at least the day after)



and then the promised two minute (*ahem* it is two minutes if you fast foreward it on double speed) rant on Doctor Who Season 7!



Well, that is it from me for now.

Hopefully I have a new video for you next week. Possibly.

And don't forget to give me ideas on what to talk about!

Love you all

It is really a sign of a sad life when you have to pretend to be someone else. It is a worse sign when you have to pretend to be someone else and you do a poor job about it.

If you would be so kind as to please report Tiffany Mills and her fake Lumo Suicide Facebook Page, we would much appreciate it.

The real Lumo is very upset about this horrid girl impersonating her, especially in such a manner. She also found this out on her birthday!

Thanks.

So, Dad had foot reconstruction surgery. He is now an amputee because they had to remove part of his gross semi-deformed big toe for balance issues.

However, they sent him for an emergency MRI. Could be for a stroke, or tumor. Who knows. I am still in favor that the heady combination of drugs my darling dad is on is what is causing his reduced reflexes and dizzy spells but I don't have a degree in medicine. I am also arguing that my dad is not depressed as the man wouldn't know how to be depressed if you show him and they are treating the wrong thing. Once again, i am looking at thing holistically rather than singularly. I think I need to chat to my dads shrink. I mean, it is easy enough as she is my shrink.

so, the drama with my father continues. I get to look after him at home for a week (and by look after I mean stop my mom and sister from having a panic attack every time the man looks like he is in pain or if he needs to go to the loo).

I did however do this blog to share a video which is from the accent challenge thread on the silliness board. Yeah yeah yeah, bit behind the times but there needs to be more SA accents. However, I am an English speaking SA girl so sorry. dustINK did one as well if you want to compare accents although I think ours are pretty similar.

Well, here we go:



laters peeps.

P.S I want to do more random thought time videos. Maybe like a two minute random talk on a topic. So if there is anything you want me to randomly talk about, please send me a DM or leave a comment with a topic and I will see if I can do one a week (if I get awesome topics I will do more).

So was typing in the What are you thinking right now thread and I realized that I am thinking all sorts of random things in my endeavor to procrastinate writing up a motivational letter for a bursary. So I figured why not write some of these weird and wonderful things down in the form of a blog seeing as I am missing kung fu extra training again due to the fact that I am tired as all hell.



I am not tired from doing strenuous things, my dad is the in hospital and he has this stalker chick who started phoning the hospital at all hours last night because my dad put his phone off and she couldnt harrass him that way. So middle of the night we get a frantic phone call from the hospital so na - and in mid typing I had to go answer the incessant ringing home phone because the stalker chick phones there too and all just to have the phone slammed down in my ear - anyway, so naturally my mom and myself were in a panic because the freaking hospital is calling and my dad is not the healthiest of men all to find out that the nurses were getting concerned because some woman kept calling claiming to be my mom then putting the phone down when they dragged my dad out to bed to the nurses station.



Please don't give me sympathy for my dad being in hospital. it is a major relief. he is renowned for his temper which has shortened due the the immense pain he is. rather he be in hospital where they can control the pain than me have to defend family members from his wrath. It saves him the guilt as well as excess hospital trips. My dad is not abusive just by the way, he is just a man with a short fuse in unbelievable pain.

So yeah, that lead me not being prepared for lectures as the phone has not stopped ringing. it is ringing again now but i am ignoring it because fuck. so my lecturer shat on us then went on about how wonderful African culture is and how westerners came in and fucked it up and apartheid and I was like fucking hell that was 20years ago. I don't care. I WANT SLEEP!

Which is probably just because i needed sleep as this was the second late night. the first late night was because Arroia, Lumo and I decided to play hair dresser. which resulted in me having a purple cabbage on the top of my hair. its more like purple coleslaw without the mayo but after writing in the thread i now have a picture in my head of me after a facial and coleslaw hair. my head goes to weird places sometimes. I mean -





and that was my dad calling with a new cellphone number which is family only and laughing because i told him i shat on whoever was phoning. I actually hope that that time it wasn't a family member who tried to call and I screamed down the phone. i have a temper too you see and i can be quite viscous. i also bear grudges. so i am becoming a grumpy old woman. who bears grudges. and has a bad temper.


^^ What I may possibly look like one day when I am old

funny thing was i was talking to my dad about his foot reconstruction as it has collapsed now even though the actual injury happened when he was 16 (he dropped a garage door counter weight on his foot) and he turned to me and told me to have a good look because I am going to look like him when I am 59. Well, obviously not exactly. He is twice my size, black hair and a guy. duh. I am tiny for my family, blonde and a girl.

I don't know if any of you realized I am a girl. You know, because there are no girls on the internet. at all.

So i am rambling and procrastinating and should be training because i am grading in three months and am no where near ready. not to mention the demo that is happening in two weeks and i am doing a form i only completed a couple weeks ago. so, now that i am fully immersed in writing mode and have some of the things going through my head come out i guess i should go motivate someone to pay for me to study.

When really, all I want is a hug.



Okay, going back now, putting some pictures up and maybe some sentences and paragraphs.


^^duckface because I have never done a duckface picture

So, apart from dodging the water canon on campus today (because South African students have to be tough), I went for an HIV test.

Basically, I am pretty much on the whole pro-testing bandwagon. As well as fully against any stereotyping and judgement on HIV.

Some fun facts:

• HIV is now a chronic disease. This means you can lead a normal functioning life if you are HIV positive.


• HIV does not discriminate. It doesn't care what socio-economic class you belong to and it definitely does not care who you are having sex with.


• HIV needs three criteria to be filled in order for infection to take place. These criteria are: an infected person with a high viral count, an open wound and an appropriate time-span.


• There is high risk behavior and low risk behavior. High risk behavior involves penetrative sex (anal and vaginal) as well as sharing of needles. Things like thigh sex, oral sex and mutual masturbation are considered low risk


• STI's are gateways to HIV infection (as they usually create some kind of wound). Going for regular STI checks is as important as being tested for HIV. Some STI's can show no obvious physical symptoms

Using protection, minimizing risks and looking after yourself no matter who you are is important.

until next time.

Okay, Talamia has seriously outdone herself and the SA Shootfest was apparently the place to be to see gorgeous woman.

First there was Pyke with Bittersweet




THen there was Kohana with Behind closed doors




and now

Now there is the love of my life Arroia eating cake and being adorably sexy in Ravenous





Guess I am going to be distracted all day today
