Let’s kick it off…
Our CEO is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.
He is funny, charming and tells really corny jokes. He knows the best spots for good food and great wine.
He is based in Cape Town and has been trying to get me to CT for years. One day I may just relent.
He calls me Sunshine.
The other day a poster of One Direction and a necklace of Liam – my favourite arrives in the mail. From the CEO because he knows how much I love them.
I tell you – surprises like this are enough to have me smiling the entire day!
Speaking of which – my concert at Wembley was 40 days ago. I am still wearing my armband from the show.
Yes I bath with it on – it is not made of paper.
40 Days & 40 Nights |

Who knew it would be this difficult to blog once a week!?
I keep promising myself that I will give blogging a serious try again, yet somehow life gets in the way. Here is my commitment to you – I will Try Harder
What is your Go-To Song?
For an avid music lover such as myself, this is not a very easy question.
I have a variety of songs that I just have to play to get myself in/out of a mood.
If I have had a really bad day: Happily – One Direction
If I am feeling like some love: Mirrors – Justin Timberlake
If I am needing energy: Cuckoo – Adam Lambert
If I am feeling the need for some anger release: Not Over You – Daughtry
If I am in a really good mood: She looks so perfect – 5SOS / Can We Dance – The Vamps
Having said that –
My all time favourite love song: Running Away – Eden
My all time favourite happy song: What Makes you Beautiful – One Direction

So with that I will give you 1 goal:
Besides all the shopping lists that need compiling, I have created my own dilemmas by giving myself too many choices this week.
Dilemma 1: Hey Gorgeous order
It took me 4 days to finally decide what I would like from the amazing range that Hey Gorgeous have to offer. I wanted it all, but that is not going to happen, especially with Christmas on a Budget. I made myself a looong list of all the delicious products and narrowed it down to what I (really) need. And then I justified the fact that I am paying postage, so I might as well make it worth my while and ordered a second product.
These products would also make the perfect Christmas gift.
I cannot wait to get my very first Hey Gorgeous order!
Don’t you just adore their photo styling?
Dilemma 2: Customised Design for phone cover
I came across an awesome South African business: Customised Phone Covers by Tickled Blue for only R275.
I was driving home the other day wondering if I should buy an iPhone so that I can have a cute cover made because there is nothing available for the Samsung S3. That same evening I discovered that S3 covers are available! It’s a sign I tell you.
I designed over 20 case designs, picked my favourite 8 and asked friends/family to choose.

Liam “Hotness” Payne – 1D |
I am sure most of you know my obsession with these guys:
A 12 year old boy (not quite) |
Ermmmm ok….. Not what I expecyed. My first thoughts were: “They are SO YOUNG”
Proceed to watch the music video, love it, google them, watch all their interviews and that was that. I was smitten.

“I want you” |
I am sure most of you know my obsession with these guys:
Even though I try to keep the groupie side of me on my other Social Media, sometimes it slips through onto here.
I didn’t choose the Groupie life, the groupie life chose me.
One day I heard a song on the radio and fell in love with the voice and then the song with it’s cheeky catchy beat. A few days of hearing the song, but never the artist made me research them on Google.
This was my first glimpse of the voice I had fallen in love with:

3 years later, look how my baby has grown up:
I recently became the proud owner of this lovely perfume, which surprisingly does not smell like a 12 year old high on Candy Floss.
My dad and I had an hour long conversation about these boys and their success and I told him that my new life’s mission is to see them perform live.
Yesterday, I decided to stop saying it, and do it. I made that dream a reality. I am going to see One Direction. Live. At Wembley Stadium.
I can’t contain my excitement!!! I have to keep looking at this photo to make sure it really happened.
Go ahead, judge me. I won’t care over the ear-splitting grin and inward shreaking (yes you Missy Pie)
I even entered a competition to see them live at Madison Square Gardens in New York, but sadly didn’t win. If you feel like a good chuckle, here is the video.
Is it just me who hates the sound of their own voice? Apparently your brain alters the way you sound – why? Why doesn’t it just alter our vocal cords to sound better?
