Confessions Of A Shopaholic

Rewind 2:45am 7th March

Eyes wide awake, Insomnia has hit me like never before. My body is knackered and suffering exhaustion, seeing as I have been on clockwork mode for the past 3 days without proper rest...and yet, here I am wishing for daylight so I can lose my mind in the midst of all Fashion has to offer me: - To think I actually believed nothing excites me.......

Rewind 9:00am 7th March

1st stop.........the bra shop, to get proper fitting....and boy did I get the shock of my life.......The results should excite me, but no it didn't, it actually upset my mood.

I dive into the deep end.......8 Lasenza's later I'm feeling all good with myself  J

Next Stop........The West End!

Rewind 11:23pm 7th March

1 suitcase full, a couple of missed trains and buses, a freezing butt with sore hands & feet, this dame still has her game, but all I need right now is sleeeeep! 

Today 20:00pm

With half a suitcase more.......At this rate I might have to cargo more than one suitcase.........Gosh....There are just so many things to buy! I'm drooling over my new collection of shoes......I think I need help here, 11 pairs and counting....with a more than a week to go.......I'm off to bed right now.....It's me and Westfields Tomorrow.

I thank God I don't live in this city......

Little does my bestmate know, but I am dragging her along with me come her day off!

Gibberish....

Oh no, I can tell this is a very muddled up post, More like a diary entry…..might not make sense to anyone but me.

·       * Long Exhale…….. I have officially served my country and I can say it was quite an experience; I’ve never wanted something to be over so bad…..So bad that when I was handed the flipping piece of paper (The Certificate that is) I looked at it and said “Is this it?” ………Really? ………….All that hassle for this? I thank God for seeing me through this “ordeal”- as I would like to call it, and be warned  NYSC truly means Now Your Suffering Continues………..It’s a colossal waste of time, and I’m glad it’s over for good! I would miss CD days though, it's the only official excuse to work four times a week.....*sigh

*Longer exhale……… got a lot going on around me…….. a lot on my mind, enough things to demoralize me and my state of mind, yet I am far from being demoralized (dunno why- ok I know why), a bit worried- this I cannot help, seeing as it is human nature, but then again worrying doesn’t change anything, and for the 1^st time in my life I am letting myself share all of this with a very good friend of mine. I never share- I’m usually an All-in-one Package kind of person, I Do EVERYTHING for myself by myself, but this time I just can’t help it………….it feels like all the things weighing me down get dumped at the sight of my friend J, It’s amazing…… so amazing that I feel at peace in the midst of madness …….and that just makes me HaPpY.

I was meant to share a quote based on my current state of affairs but Funms beat me to it…..So here, I’ll share this with you guys and I’m sure at least one person will use this as the missing piece to whatever puzzle they are trying to solve in their lives right now.

I turned the page too......and it's Awesome!!!!..................Now I have to learn not to keep going back.

PS: NYSC is my achievement for the month of February.......yay!

All those born in March, where the Party at?!

Question....

Was this really necessary?

We all shared our views with Temite (Wanted to hyperlink.....and she has gone all private on us! Naughty, Naughty!) Do you think that whatever she could have said or done to him was worth this?

There's always two sides to a story, but a battered human being should never be The End.

PS: My heart goes out to Jade Goody(Even though I wasn't a fan of hers due to the Shilpa incident) -A pure example of life taking you unawares.

The Day The Earth Stood Still

Head Quarters: Alien Ant Farm

Mission: Invasion

Target: Planet Earth

So, no one seems to know what exactly was seen in the Texas skyline.

NASA & Co. have come up with all sorts of explanations.

Why don't I believe them?

Maybe because I've watched too much, and a certain friend of mine has a twisted mind, OR maybe because I believe they have no idea. 

UFO's, Aliens.................Earth ain't your turf.

Go find someplace else to play.

"14-02 & ~SIRIUS~"

And I did................ :-)

It was inevitable.

I fought it.

I cursed it.

I wanted it.

I hated it.

I fought it some more.

Then  I broke it.

Yes.

 I broke the habit.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Cupid,

Seeing as we have made up, it is in your best interest to make this relationship work- unless you want to loose me. Again. And in the reality of things, the only way this is going to happen is, if and only if we play by my rules.

 * evil grin. It's either my way or the high way baby. 

(As we all know, your territory is rather empty, and if you doubt me do your own blog rounds and see for your self, Shona, Kookie,Temite!, Black(On behalf of BG), Funms, FQ,  need I go on? Ibiluv, Afro (I don't care that they didn't say so, but I know they are not on your side) hence, you might want to make sacrificies for those of us willing to be on your side :-), ButterCup, you there? we are calling the shots on this one with cupid, Woo Hoo!)

So From henceforth you are not allowed to dose me with shots of Heartaches, HeartBreaks, Jealousy, Envy, Selfishness, Pride, and a Vaulted Heart- Protecting the hard drive is a whole lot harder these days.

Instead only shots of Patient, Kindness, Happiness: Happiness in the truth (good or bad as the case may be), Hope & Faith in all things, and endurance will be allowed.

You got that?

Yours Truly,

~Sirius~

.....XoXo....

Ps:  If you feel you can't put up with this then I oblige you to shoot yourself in the heart and forget we ever made up!

Tomorrow is valentines day...... and I decided to stick to simple and ideal, and you bet it's going to Rock!

HaPpY VaL's Day BLOGSVILLE!!!!......Mmwuah!

“14-02 & Heart Break” - Breaking The Habit.

At this point it’s hard to avoid or ignore the Valentine day madness. It’s so crazy that I believe in the near future February 14^th will be made an actual holiday. What’s even crazier is that this year it falls on a Saturday- Soooo many guys are in trouble. How will they divide their “quality time”- wake up and spend all day with wifey 1- run out and spend all evening and night with wifey 2, and fight with concubine OR fight with wifey2 and spend the whole day with 1 OOOR….disappear all together…Hmmmm I wonder what the BIG excuse would be- I digress.

I and cupid used to be best of friends, but after all the years of living in the real world as opposed to fairytale world, it’s hard to remain friends. I have scars that remind me why this day is over rated. First of all, I attended an all girls boarding school- so scratch valentine out of my secondary school days. After secondary school, My puppy love – realized the day existed when I had literally walked out of the relationship (like Temite- break up without telling him), he sat at home all day waiting for his little pixie to show up, meanwhile little Miss me had a rude awakening that day when my new love was torn between Me and his ex- So he Val-ed his ex in front of the whole school! and I ran back to my roots, met my poor puppy love sitting outside waiting for me…….(I still remained broken up after that oh!) LOL!........And you would think one bad experience is good enough to last you your life time, HA! Well, we all know that there’s always an appetizer before the main course. Now the main course totally Kills Cupid for me- On a faithful Valentine's day, while my mates were out exchanging presents and kisses, I get scarred. Now somebody tell me why my memories of Valentine’s day should be full of Love!

I know most of us have been scorched, burned, hurt or whatever, but I’m breaking my habit this year. After all, this is the year of change init? All those in favour of Obama and Change shout YES! And besides ain’t nothing I do can about the past, but I will not let it affect my future.……..Hey, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I’m going all out into the madness, NO! All I’m saying is I will try and change my attitude towards the occasion, and instead of dwelling on the nasty memories, I’ll do otherwise......And Besides the Mister is quite a *Dime Piece.

Speaking of which I have NO idea how these things are done or what to do…………….Any ideas People? 

Please note: I am NOT the Mushy type so all mushy Ideas out the window! Thank you.

On second thoughts.......I think I'll use this year to make up with cupid...........:-)

"14-02 & Heart Break"

Looking for a photo to put up on my Valentine day post I stumbled across some quotes about love and heartbreak.  A few of them hit home, so I went scouting for some more and this is what I found.....

 

It takes a minute to like someone, and hour to love someone, but to forget someone takes a life time.

“Love is just the slowest form of suicide. it numbs you inside and all you have to do is pull the trigger.” (O-Y-O, On Your Own!)

Love And Get Hurt, Get Hurt And Learn, Learn And Love Again.

Love is hard to get, 
but harder to let go

If you never get your heart broken,
you'll never learn to love

Once upon a time I was falling in love,
but now I’m falling apart.

If you have it [love], you don't need to have anything else, and if you don't have it, it doesn't matter much what else you have.

Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together

 You love to hate the one who loves the one you hate to love.

The heart was made to be broken.

When the heart grieves over what is has lost, the spirit rejoices over what it has left.

The saddest thing in the world, is loving someone who used to love you.

Ever has it been said that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.

Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go.

The way to love anything is to realize that it might be lost.

Love: The irresistable desire to be irresistibly desired.

 

I know we can all relate to some of these quotes. The one quote that killed it for me is this:

The hardest thing to do is watch someone
you love, love someone else.

Wow!
