The hectic life of a third year event management student




The definition of hectic , not the internets definition ,but rather my own definition would be no time to check your phone , Facebook and other social media sites . 

Some would call me writing a blogpost procrastination , to some extent could be true ,but i need a break to my brain has been running way to long for its own liking the last past week. 

I have been on search for my new car , and even put that on hold when i got swamped with way to many assignments , a group assignment of 70 pages , a 30 page assignment and a pitch for the Fab bridal expo presentation and lastly a corporate presentation where the third year event management students , set up the class in  U shape for a meeting and everyone dresses up in corporate wear and you as a group of ten provide food and listen to your ideas on a certain topic after your resonation the group can debate about a statement you have come with . 

When I'm done posting this i will be moving on to completing assignments for monday as well as a tutuorial . I have never been this stressed , but its all preparing us for the big and scary world out there , that i am excited to venture in when I'm done studying.

For now there is not much excitement in my life ,so this blogpost is a little shorter than others. 

Ill be back soon though ,when i find something else to blog about , but for now i wish the Third year event management class good luck with all the work .

Voting and then enjoying some of Cape Towns restaurants :)

Your vote is your privacy ,but not according to all the Facebook posts about which party people would be voting for in the last few weeks, which kind of got monotonous and annoying ,but never the  less i was pretty excited to go and vote being it my first time and all . I was in a very fortunate position not to stand in any queues at the voting station as my sister is on crutches and cannot stand on her feet for too long soooo we skipped the whole queue and kindly got helped straight away making the voting a 5 minute max thing. 

My friend/sister Roxy came to sleep by me for the first time in about a year and a half , she has just graduated from completing her cheffing course and is now currently studying hotel management at THC the hurst campus ,i haven't seen her in ages because her campus is situated in Franschoek and we were both busy , i visited her every now and then in Franschoek while she was doing her internship and stayed for a whole week in the December holidays. spending the last two days with her was pretty awesome. :)

having the whole day ahead of us and nothing to do we decided we would go for lunch .. it took us about a half an hour to decide where we would go eat and in what direction we would go ,my sister throwing around suggestions of camps bay , hout bay and many other far places which was cool except for the fact i would have to be the one to drive there and back. We decided to go Cape Towns direction and ended up in park street ,this little street had many restaurants to choose from such as simply Asia ,takumi,fat cactus ,we decided to have lunch at a Moroccan restaurant called Ricks cafe 

Ricks Cafe had the largest amount of alcohol I've ever seen at any restaurant thismeaning about 5 pages filled with different options and two pages in total sums up all the food items present on their menu. I have not consumed alcohol in a while so i ordered a passionfruit and pineapple mojito and shortly after that i ordered a lemonade to chase it as it was to strong and felt like my tummy was being burnt to its core. Ricks Cafes food was amazing and the portion size was unbelievably huge,but well worth it. 

Next stop..... Fire and Ice Cape town  no no not for food but for awesome milkshakes ,if you have not been i suggest you go :D They have awesome flavours and a really large selection at that too. the Fire and Ice hotel has awesome bathrooms with different themes and very modern furniture and finishes to enjoy. 

All in all i have had an awesome public holiday by voting and enjoying two of Cape Towns amazing restaurants, unplanned road trips like these and good company is something I quite enjoy,

boyfriend post





Boyfriends name: Keenen Jeftha
Names I call him: Mr. Jeftha, baby, babe, boob, and most commonly his known as my angel eyes.

Our relationship isn’t a fairy tale without any glitches, there are many glitches, but that can be expected when your dating someone for almost three years, especially when those three years you grow and change.

We started dating in my matric year, he was in his first year of studying at the time and I was in the vibe of a typical high school relationship where you talk non stop because you have the time and only say the sweetest of sweetest things to each other.

When I started my first year of studying, also a year of dating Keenen this is where most arguments started I started focusing on my studies more than paying attention to the guy who meant the world to me. He couldn’t understand the change but we soon became accustomed to the different lifestyles we were both having. And the only problem that was really evident was the fact that we needed to learn to grow together and things would be different than me being in high school.

We seemed to have many misunderstanding and different ways of thinking about different matters but we always seemed to sort things out and not let the other one go to bed angry.

but theres no one id rather argue with , because we are both willing to fight for this relationship and nothing can compare to the memories we have made during the last three years , he has really become my best friend. 

The things Keenen and I like to do best is EAT :) ,go to the beach , watch movies , take random drives and we always on a hunt for ice cream :) 


So my angel eyes if you ever read this, I appreciate you and all the effort you put in our relationship, I love you and thank you for everything J
