    Making Moves

    Life is scary. You get so used to what you’re currently doing and stick to that even though it doesn’t give you the result that you want. You stick to it because that’s all you know. I am guilty of sticking to the same thing. Albert Einstein was quoted saying the definition of insanity is…

  • Whew, I’m Tired

    Whew, I’m Tired

    Well, that was a hectic last couple of weeks. When things go south they tend to go south remarkably fast. Over the last few weeks I’ve been busy, so here’s an update. First, I joined a new gym, yay. I like this one, it’s well stocked and has a heated pool. I am definitely going…

  • One plus One

    One plus One

    In high school was at best a disinterested mathematics student, I could do it and I passed but my heart really wasn’t in it.

  • Der Wein

    Der Wein

    Three or four weeks ago, I got a mini bottle of Calvet Reserve Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 Bordeaux, or as the German’s call it, der Wein. I know absolutely nothing about wine other than if you drink 750 ml of it in 30 minutes, you’re going to have a good time.

    Apparently there is snow here now

    A snow filled cold day in Zimbabwe While I do not usually post the random stuff that shows up in my inbox all the time, a few pictures showed up today I think I should share. They show an area (allegedly Lower Gweru), which is, wait for it, covered in snow. This is a very…

    Goals vs Wishes

    Goals vs Wishes Today I was having a chat with a friend who told me that she didn’t want to work at her job for the rest of her life, so naturally I asked what would she rather be doing instead? She told me she wanted to be an events planner and have her own…
