Is it only in South Africa where matrics (A-level students) celebrate their “40 days”? I can remember all the time whilst being in high school the matrics’ 40 days were always a huge celebration. This would be the mark of their last 40 days of school!! They decorated the trees with toilet paper and put bubble bath in the fountain, and a whole lot of other stuff. It was usually quite a mess, and I think most of them got into trouble for what they did, but they really didn’t care - they would be rid of the teachers in 40 days!!

Today marks my 40 days!!! In 40 days’ time I will be walking down the isle - can you believe that!?! I am so excited, and yet nervous at the same time. Not nervous cause I’m unsure about getting married, instead (I know I’m repeating myself now), I’m affraid all the plans won’t go as smooth as I hope. There are so many things to think about, and heaven forbid I forget something really important.

I should really make a list now, but I think of stuff when I’m in the weirdest places, i.e. shower, loo, etc. We did the seating arrangement yesterday, and man, I never thought it would be so tough. It really takes some thinking to match people up. We might be no good at it too - we’ll have to wait and see!! Haha… Honestly I don’t really care if people on one table get along really well. They’re not there for the other people on the table, they’re there for us.

I’m happy with my seat, and that settles it - hehe

 Every now and again I come across a debatable subject which catches my attention, and then I make a poll. If you need to create a poll which you want to host of your website or blog, check out easy-polls.
You can sign up within a couple of minutes, and in a couple more minutes, you can create a poll. No need to be jealous of other blogs who have myspace polls, just create your own

Without having your visitors click on any ads, you can now make money from your blog! With Net Audio Ads you can monetize your blog, by just adding a 5 second advertisement, and nothing else.If you become an affiliate before the 1st of February, it is FREE, and you get paid for ads on your site, ads that are refered to by you personally, and ads served on websites of those that your direct referrals refer.

The best of this service is that you don’t have to do much to earn your money! You can enhance your revenue stream by just placing the ads on your blog or website, and voila!

NetAudioAds[Pay-Per-Play] advertising is an advertising channel that is set to take the internet by storm.
Because of the size and scope of this deal (backed by one of the BIG 5 search engines), Pay-Per-Play (PPP) advertising will become a world wide business media event.

For those of you who are already making money from blogging, take a look at this idea. They offer you money without any work, and I know it sounds fishy - lol. I myself write paid blog posts, and am not too keen on believing that people are willing to pay for just placing an ad on your site.

I guess we still have to look this proposition through thoroughly, as I wouldn’t want audio ads on my blog, harrassing my readers the whole time. I suppose these ‘5 second ads’ will be on auto play, which is something I absolutely hate. And if they plan to regulate the content themselves, I’m going to seriously rethink as well.

But there is still a chance that this might be worthwhile, and its definitely worth looking into

1. Aspire to be Barbie - the b!tch has everything.

2. If the shoe fits - buy one in every colour.

3. Take life with a pinch of salt … a wedge of lime, and a shot of tequila

4. In need of a support group - Cocktail hour with the girls!

5. Go on the 30 day diet. (I’m on it and so far I’ve lost 15 days).

6. When life gets you down - just put on your big girl panties and deal with it.

7. Let your greatest fear be that there is no PMS and this is just my personality.

8. I know I’m in my own little world, but it’s ok. They know me here.

9. Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.

10. Don’t get your knickers in a knot, it solves nothing; and makes you walk funny.

11. When life gives you lemons in 2008 - turn it into lemonade then mix it with vodka.

12. Remember every good looking, sweet, single male is someone else’s ex boyfriend!

Some horrible things (and some funny things) have happened to me through this past week.

First of all, I’ve lost my page rank - its just GONE. I’m back down to zero as I was before Google had indexed me! Can you believe it? Maybe its just coz they’re in the process of updating their indexing (or whatever terminology I’m suppose to use for that). I really hope its just a temp thing. :S

And then the other thing is somewhat embarrassing… My stomach has started to make REALLY weird noises. Like their’s a baby whale in my stomach, trying to communicate with whoever is close to me. Its really aweful. You know the type of noises your stomach make, and then everyone starts looking around. Well that’s it - except no one is looking around coz they know its mine - or they probably think its me farting in the office all day. There’s no point in explaining this, or trying to, they will just think the worst in anycase, but nod sympathetically while I tell them about the ‘noises’.

I’ve started eating a bit less to lose some weight before the wedding, and I’m guessing that’s the reason for the sudden whale communication. My whale wants more food… :O

Have an awesome weekend. Rest, and enjoy the feeling of not having to go to work. For those of you who are working this weekend - my condolences! I can’t WAIT to get out of the office - I need some good company and some fresh air

However, when I flip this picture horizontally, I look like different celebs. Haha.

And here you go with a meta morphises of me into Charlize Theron (and back)… LOL… I suppose they could ‘morph’ just about anyone into anything if they really want - no need to look similiar!

I struggle to get up each morning. I hate waking up early. At the moment I live half an hour from our offices, and I start work at 7am. Needless to say, I get up before SUNRISE.

I wake up with my Dad giving me a cup of Rooibos tea, every morning. He’s so sweet with that! I don’t know how else I will get out of bed - without my cup of Rooibos, I’m lost.

Some people shower in the mornings to wake up, but I shower at night - I feel dirty at the END of the day, and like to go to bed calm and relaxed from showering.

Others wake up with coffee (which is very unhealthy!), but I honestly understand your dilemma - I used to do the same. But what other ways are there of waking up? I know my Dad is one of those people who can just jump out of bed - he doesn’t take any time to ‘wake up’ - which I find really strange. I’m a bit disoriented when I wake up, and also grumpy for having to get out of my comfy bed, and leave my dreams behind.

But what do you do? Please give me your magical recipes if you have any!!

I’ve been having a ‘fight’ with a colleague about who’s the hottest chick -
Nicole Scherzinger or Alizee. I won’t tell you who I picked so that your answers won’t be biased.  So please leave your vote, and let me know who you think is hotter? If you had to pick one of these two chicks…
