Long weekend

Eish I am sooo looking forward to this long weekend...especially that its even longer than the easter weekend. Eish unfortunately I will be so broke....(do we write broke like this?)I am only getting paid at the last day of the month.....ukusebenzela amaNdiya ke....Anywho i hope to enjoy it to the fullest....cause there are activities all over the show...there is a Diva's concert that I will not be attending how i wish i could attend this concert mara....to be a parent sometimes!!! Yah heartwarmer take your time sister to have kids. There is another one at the Pretoria show grounds...on Friday at the Union building there is Freedom day celebrations...uuuulaaa and a 5km run..I am running that with my kids....hahahah then some artists will perform and the Gauteng Premier will give a speech....then go home...Sat go to class...eish i hate that class...the lecturer can't really not sure yet what I will be doing....but I will be preparing for my long run on the 1st of May..yes there is 42km's run at Centurion.....kubusy people are preparing for Comrades......

Cricket

What happened yesterday? 27 already 5 wickets down in just 10 overs!!! what is this? Professional cricket by professional players who get paid lots to perform better on behlaf of the country. Why mara? what happened to out team. Have you noticed how our team looses if Graeme Smith gets out early..but if he stays for a long time like maybe get about 50 runs or more our team wins. Jacque(sp)Kallis i usually trust this boy with the bet...what happened? out for 5 runs? i don't believe this. You know yesterday I was looking forward to a great cricket game...but even before 5 when i was still at work just checking the score on the internet i was so dissappointed when i saw 27 for 5 in 10 overs...haybo

I must admit though i don't understand the technicalities of cricket...all what I check is the score so maybe there other factors i should consider when i watch the game which will help my smallanyana understanding of the game understand why we lost like that yesterday. We couldn't even finish the overs....50 overs is that a lot.

With that kind of score i knew it was going to be difficult to defend actually there was nothing to be defended there. So i suppose for Australia it was a walk in the park.

I know it was just a match....and i agree when a match is played both participants have a fair chance of winning especially if both sides have a point to prove like Australia and South Africa. South Africa can loose any day against any other country but not Australia....i hate it when we loose to Australia

I wish Malinga all the best in taking out all those Australians.....

Why Graenme...why, why ...why...we can loose but not this bad....that was poor perfomance.....Graeme!!!!! I wanna scream.

Being inlove

Have you ever noticed how good is the feeling of being in love. The smiles...goose bumps...small thoughts..giggling

Its such a beautiful thing. I love being inlove. Is it a sustainable feeling though? or is it a stage that passes with excitement?

My personal feeling is that this kind of feeling is not sustainable at all. We would all like to always feel like that but it doesn't happen. It is just a feeling of excitement which lasts for about a month or two if you are lucky cause with other people it lasts for less than that. But there is another feeling which replaces it...the feeling of knowing you are loved by someone you love....is not this amazing mara...

That can last forever...that feeling of knowing someone cares about you. I like the feeling of loving someone...when you look into their eyes...you just want to melt, when you kiss them you want to cry....when he/she hugs you you feel the heart beating fast...you don't wanna let them go. Its such a beautiful feeling mara to love someone.

I am loving my man at the moment....I am loving him...I am loving him.....

Generations mara

There are a lot of soapies that are currently playing on our small screens at the moment. Isidingo, Scandal, soon to be canned Backstage, generations and many more. Mara generations is the worst of them all. who writes for this soapie? Ok i know soapies are not necessarily depicting our real life buy haybo...generations is worse. Look at what they are doing to Busi (Sbusiso's sister). Can a person in that level MD be so stupid? really now? What is Jack doing in Generations? does the man have a role? no wonder he is quitting...he is too good to keep on loitering around there doing nothing....we miss his good acting skills in theatre. I know generations probably for some actors provide them a stable job which makes sense if you have responsibilities. I also don't like the idea they always portray that rich black dudes are cruckes or they got their money through back doors....or is that so? look at Mashaba...in real life can a person still another person's company...

I like most actors though, they are doing their best, but eish script writes should be more creative. Can't they take notes from the Isidingo guys.....

C'mmon generations, you can do better than that. I mean 20h00 we want to wacth good TV cause that is the time where we are watching TV with kids...something educational, or to laugh about, something that we can all talk about as a family.

TV on Saturday

This Saturday TV was hectic there were SAMA's, cricket (South Africa Vs New Zealand), Soccer as well, it was just too hectic people in the house wanting to watch different things....during break trying other channels...channel hopping was the order of the evening. But TV is good like that.

I must say i enjoyed the SAMA's especially the presenter Kabelo...he did very well (U guys wanna see my number!!). I might not agree with some people that won but that is a different issue altogether for some day. enjoyed seeing those dresses and some perfomances by some local guys. Now Sbu aka Mzekezeke i really didn't understand that whole act of him perfoming remember when it rains, did he actually perform that song because i heard the other white dude singing and then a CD with Sbu smiling and dancing some moves that were not coordinated....so my question is Why did Sbu go in the front? he could have just stayed with the audience and whoever introduced the song acknowledge him....you know that easy.... I really didn't understand the logic behind.

Sister Bettina guys...C'mmon now when are you gonna learn to know your lyrics by heart so you can stop saying wrong words in wrong places....it disturbs the whole perfomance yhazi. Its either you let the CD play and keep quiet mime....until the end or atleast learn your lyrics....its just too messy at the moment. Guyz get your act together, and unfortunately for me i was not hearing them bebheda for the first time.

Shwi noMntekhala...abafana baseHostela....don't believe this, they took the award for the best selling album two times in a row.....the brothers are good shame. Big ups to the guys. By the way did you watch them perfoming in Rebecca's show on Sunday...they have a gospel song.....also maskanda and nice.

Rebecca??? do i need to say anything here.....all i can say is that It is boring maan. maybe i am jealous but it is very boring shame, don't we have other gospel stars that can compete with this lady...cause that is the message I am getting from the SAMA's.

What happened to Mandoza?

Anyway...cricket. Saturday game was very intereting maybe interesting is not the right word it was rather.... (gone to check my dictionary for a word to use). Only if South African had made more runs even if it was mere 200, we could be talking a different language altogether. It was a difficult slow pitch i agree, but Pieterson tried shame.....and i think there was just too much pressure on him to deliver because the pitch needed people who swing the ball rather than fast bowlers so he was the only guy although i think Smith also swings he decided not to bowl that day cause there was just too much pressure for bowlers to take wickets......

But i know South Africa will win tomorrow....Good luck boyz.

Soccer...Isiwelele. I am really not a soccer fan, maybe there is a reason why i don't like soccer it is because i don't understand it ...offside, penalty, handball, etc. Husby has been trying to explain to me the concept of off side for the past few years...i just don't get it sometimes...i get lost all the time. But i have a team that i favour....Bloemfontein Celtics. I started being a serious supporter 2005 when i was in Cape Town....I am worried these days they seem to be unlucky with goals cause they still play very well shame. Viva to the Celtics fan from Bloemfontein. They support their club even when its loosing... Viva to those supporters. There is a play at the State theatre about the celtics supporters, maybe i should go and watch it

House hunting

Is it me or this exercise is one of those that really take long, when you want to buy a house does it take this long to get a house that you really want in the area that you like not forgetting "affordability" can i afford the house of my dreams, can i afford a shelter for my kids, can i afford a shelter over my head or will i rent for life. I am very tired of renting cause at the moment that is the only thing I can afford to do in a posh place if i want to buy then it means i must go to place that i don't even like not because its my choice but because the bank says so.

Am i being a spoilt brat here or what? I am not really looking for something fancy....I am just looking for a shelter for my family....is that too much to ask? But houses that I have been seeing its either the area is not up to scratch or the area is posh but the house itself is sooo small with small bedrooms......will i buy mara??????

Matatiele {Luxeni}

They call it Luxenburg!!!! these days. That is the smallanyana village where I come from situated koMatatiele (not sure whether its KZN or Eastern Cape) but its there somewhere. I went home during the easter weekend to see my mother, father, grand mother, grand father from my father's side....and a whole lot of people from my family and the village. My family is one of those big extended families with lots of people. My father and mum don't stay there cause of work reasons like me, so when he is there all the relatives come and we all sit together at my father's house as a family, so the same thing happened this time again.

The village is still dry as ever, the road to the house oh my God its still bad...terrible thing happened our car was fetched by a breakdown......that is how bad the road is...full of big stones on the way, but something positive has happened, they have running water although its 1 tap shared by about 10 families. This is still better than before when we use to emlanjeni to go fetch water. And yha hee there is electricity, In my village there is electricity..i don't believe this yhazi phela i never imagined my village with electricity cause its one of those deep rural villages surrounded by mountains.

But it was good shame to see my folks, brothers, sisters, cousins, grand parents and everyone that i use to know when I was growing koLuxeni. To be continued

Yfm rules the airwaves

Indeed Yfm rules the breakfast show rush....not that Paul rules the airwaves rather the products of Y rule the airwaves. Thomas aka Bad Boy T, Rude Boy Paul, Sbu aka Mzekezeke are all doing breakfast shows of different radio stations. Stakes are high, they are all competing for the listeners of the breakfast show.

I must admit when i heard the news for the first time i knew that competition will be tough between the 3 guys who at one stage use to work for one station, but what i heard this morning yha.....neh.....boring times for radio are over....i kept on changing from one channel to another just in a space of about 20min....isn;t that what makes radio....keeping your competition on their toes. Looking forward to what the presenter will say next or to the next song they will be playing and their comments....this is exciting!!!!!!

Bob is history and Y is future. During the pat few years Bob was the radio that was known for producing well known top DJ's and presenters (if there is a difference between the 2)...The Tim Modise's of this world, the Bob Mabena's and others, all those are products of Bob. I must say i like the gal or guy...(not sure if s/he is boy or gal) that co-hosts with Thomas.....s/he is a bit interesting or the comments s/he makes are ..........I like Thomas on radio i've been listening to him when he was doing the midday show...the boy has talent.....

Yha....Sbu i was really looking forward to hearing him speaking Zulu.....just as long as he makes sure that he speaks that Zulu fluently with a zulu accent I am cool, cause ubaba uZwelithini akadlali (he takes no-nonsense as far as the language is concerned). After hearing him this morning, hayi shame he is not bad at all...better than what i thought but i think few more classes will help so he stays in good books of uBab'u Zwelithini....
Watch out Sbu....that gal you co-host with.........she might just take the spotlight...she is good.

You are right heartwarmer 5fm should give the breakfast show to Fresh.....(Heartwarmer when you see this, please provide me with a link to your post that talks about this...i think i saw it on Friday but when i browsed through this morning....in a hurry i couldn't find it......i want to acknowledge you dear)

Sorry Heartwarmer i got the link-----http://bio-scoop.blogspot.com/2007/03/rude-boy-bounced-pabi.html
