Ive heard about twitter a few time; 5fm DJs seem to love it and Wimbeldon Tennis players were having difficulty concentrating on the court when they were wanting to twitter from the side? What the fuck? "Lets Stalk the world - cause we can." - Get a life, and a girlfriend. Thats all Im saying.
Ive never blogged in my life though, and Ive always been keen but getting started was a missh. Infact, I remember seeing that little orange logo with the "B" on my phone- and for all my youth technological knowledge - I was cluless.
Until... I was heading back to Jo'burg - Yes, I live in Jo'burg and study at UCT - and my flight was delayed 8 hours. Sitting in that Cape Town airport - infact no, at one stage I was curled up under a chair in the corner under my jacket like an Obz hobo, watching the staff clean up the airport for the next day. Yes. Thats how long it took. And so, just before CNA closed - I rushed in, holding 12 bags to help with my baggage overload; and I bought a book. The first exciting looking book because I clearly DO JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER -called "Mushypeasontoast." Im still going to claim that money back from my parents- you dont buy books with your varisty pocket money?! You shouldnt have the time to curl up with tea and read a good book when you at varsity? NO- especially not in res. AND if you do - wtf? You should be on the dancefloor with your fuck-me-heels, wine in hand singing "I love college!" - And if you not out, then lectures or sleep. Mom - it was R120, thats 4 bottles of wine and a good guy from steers to top the end of the night. Anyway, If you havent read it, and you single with a sense of humour - read it. Mushypeasontoast is famous for her obnoxious blogging so I took a peak and well diaries are clearly for fags. Writing in books to be hidden in underwear draws are so 2003. It showed me the blogging world.
"Dear Daizy, It was nice knowing you - and you really did keep me company whilst growing up, but piss off and leave me alone please - thanks. Sleep tight and thanks for the chat. Pinky promise you'll keep this is for your eyes only, love Ash."
--> I only landed in Lanseria at 4am. Yes, my dear mom had to pick me up at 4AMMMM!! South Africa, goodluck for 2010. To the rest of the world, pack a sleeping bag for airport purposes and your ipod - AND its charger. 8 hour delays are possible. But it will be part of the experience right?!
Well, lets see how I go with this blogging. Im studying B.S.Sci Org Psych. at UCT - but writing from a students point of view in "lank" chilled out Cape Town Gay Capital - [If you want to speak like a "Capetonian" just add a LANK (meaning REALLY/SUPER) then you sorted - and speak really slow whilst looking spaced out! ] as well as busy trafficfied Jo'burg... Im sure I'll have lots to talk about.
