Time for a real update.
Yay for new profile picture!! I have been on this site for just over five years and it is my third profile picture.
It is always refreshing to log on and see something new.

I booked my ticket to London from June 7th till June 21st.
My brother and I are going together and have some VERY exciting things planned.
Firstly



A couple of things to mention.
I was at Download festival with my brother five years ago, we promised we would go back and it took us this long to finally return. It was truly one of the best weekends of my life. There is a very excited and descriptive blog about it here.

I will be seeing my favorite band Opeth live for the second time this year. I am a huge fan and seeing them earlier this year was a magical experience. I got to meet them and this happened (yes, I went all groupie, I couldn't help myslelf)

(It's an awful image, blurry and I look like poop but I don't care)





So the fact that I get to see them again is just beyond a dream for me.
It is also the 20th anniversary of the Metallica Black album so they are playing it in it's entirety in order! Ok, it is not my favorite album but it is the first one I fell in love with at 12 years old and it will be great to see these legends of metal playing the whole album live. (I saw them in South Africa some years ago and it was also an incredible experience so I am super excited to see them again). Along with other AWESOME bands like Tenacious D and more more more it is sure to be an amazing weekend.

Anyone who knows me will tell you I am a total Harry Potter geek, so when I saw this was opening I got just about as excited as a kid on Christmas.

We will get to walk down Diagon Alley, see the sorting hat and other costumes and SO much more!! *squeal*

Last but certainly not least, very big news. My dad is 64 and his wife is 42, they have been married for 12 years and don't have kids together... until now! So I am going to be a big sister! My baby sister will be born (hopefully) when we are there. Her due date is exactly in the middle of our trip so if all works out we will get to meet her! The other great part of this is my other brother from South Africa is also coming so we are having a big family reunion!! Very exciting stuff.

My bestie Orev has joined the site, she is really one of the most incredible, funny and smart woman I know.
Please give her a nice big welcome.
