I'm fine. (Freaked out, Insecure, Neurotic and Emotional)

i present to you,

the image of an over-indulgent soul

i had a plate of these & now, needless to say i'm too full and could throw up at any second

i put some SCRUMDILIOCIOUS (*sp) golden syrup on them, that i had my sister bring me from south africa

dutch syrup... is...well, just not good. it's bitter. not yummy. not golden syrup.

how have they survived all these years without the right syrup?

i'm hoping that the countless mugs of warm water, will help to wash it down and detox my damaged system :)

oh,

but it was so worth it

(the last time i had these was about 5 years ago when i was an au pair for the taylors in montana)

Dinner, Movie & Jam session for One....

French Toast!! Oh yummmy yum yum :)



So okay, it didn't look as good as the one in this pic, but im sure it tasted just as great! I've been craving it for sooo long and today was the day! haha.
I'm house-sitting for my sister this weekend (and waiting for the arrival of Steven's step sister, who'll be spending a couple days there), and was planning on working on my assignments - but alas, i left ALL my info at the office!!
I was quite annoyed and thought I'd cheer myself up by making a nice unhealthy dinner - yaaay!

I had 2 slices and WOW, it's amazing what food can do for the soul :)

Movie suggestion - Fun with Dick & Jane! It's HILARIOUS! and in some aspects so true to life, in that the experiences they go through so many average go folk understand... yes yes we're not all Jim Carrey fans but he's SO worth watching in this movie.
Go on rent it NOW!


My FAVOURITEST (i have rights to that word!) musician - John Mayer

No matter what mood I'm in, his music always helps and calms me down and gets me up and moving! People find it crazy how I can be such a hip-hop head, but still have a love for Acoustic like music and such, but hey i have a PASSION for music & have somewhat of a lyrical soul :)
I have all his albums and am saving up to get this one - i REALLY NEED it!
