Deeply and sincerely apologizing for being so absent on this forum. University has, in every way crusaded time for doing 'fun stuff' .
I have craved to just blurt out everything on my mind over the last weeks, but writing academic essays with references and errthang has just been so creatively stifling. Today I woke up with the purpose of having a good ole' internet rant (and rave) about this CRAZY past few weeks...
1) Zayn Maliks One Direction Departure
3 words: I WAS GUTTED. I spent 3 day sobbing continuously, even in public. It was three days before my birthday and a week before the much anticipated Cape Town concert and I just couldn't handle it. Like a typical girl and I blamed the world for being against me, and detested everyone around me for a solid 48 hours. I began to do a lot of reading, about Zayn, the band, NAUGHTY BOY ( gagged while typing that) and came to realise that Zayn decision will STAY his decision, no matter how many times we angrily tweet him, shed copious amounts of tears on, he will not come back. As heartbreaking as it is we are still left with an incredibly talented foursome. They have picked themselves up from this and stayed. I can attest for the incredible vocals and April 1st, 2015 I saw them live and they left me completely stunned. They are the best boyband in the world for a reason. I will continue in all my fangirl efforts to support them on their tenor.
2) MY BIRTHDAY :'D
Despite the tragic week, my birthday weekend was everything I could of hoped for. I spent it with my close friends and family and made some fond and happy memories. Turned out to be one of the best ones yet. I am now 19 and in my last year as a teen. Seems completely crazy as I sometimes still feel like a 12 year old. Life is a whole lot of different exciting when you this age. Just so grateful to have so many amazing people to share memories with.
Here's to 190 more years!
3) FINALLY, in the past weeks I've left skinny jeans and liquid eyeliner for some hiking boots and laughs up mountains. For two consecutive weeks I trekked up mountains with my brother and cousins. I will give you a minute to laugh that off. But yeah, my rawkus laugh and weak ankles went over rocks to admire valley views and waterfalls. Being surrounded by the majestic beauty created by God puts a lot of things into perspective. Minuscule things like no electricity (coughs, eskom), spending time crying over boybands and hating statues (sigh, South Africa ey) don't even matter when being confronted by such beauty.
Writing has always been my escape from the world. Feeling 100 pounds lighter now that I have written this post!
Till next time lovelies
