1st of the month

The best part about May is that it starts with a public holiday, what is there not to love about it?!

April Highlights

I got some brand new gadgets, and I am totally digging them

I had fun kicking it with my friends, my most memorable nights were the eve of Good Friday which was just insane to say the least, nights at the Brew and my out of town plan.

My cousin went to New York and I got some awesome earrings, thank you doll I totally appreciate it

April Downsides

I had no solid Easter plans, which was kinda lame, next year I must get away from the city and do something fun.

I got sick a fortnight ago, and it was not pleasant.

I have been struggling not to get caught up in people’s drama..

April Discoveries

I discovered new traits about people that I never new existed sigh.

What I Look Forward to In May

The next public holiday beginning of June

I am just praying for a lovely month.

How was April for you? What do you look forward to in May?

I leave you with this lovely song I discovered courtesy of Jack Rooster.

1st of the month

We have kicked off the brand new month of April with showers of blessings from God, this year has been pretty hot in Nairobi, so the rain is being welcomed by most.

March Highlights

Nairobi Fashion Market was definitely a highlight, got so much great stuff from there.

I started going to the gym, about 4 times a week. It is definitely a great way to get rid of stress, and keep fit, sometimes it is stuff, but I pride myself in finishing what I start. I have gotten used to the pain, and I hope I can maintain this regiment.

I finally got the phone I have been dreaming about

I met a friend of mine who I had not seen in years, she got saved, but she isn’t those people who shove it down your throats. She told me something which really helped me because it was something I have always wondered about. She told me to pray for God to show me what his purpose for me is, since I have no clue what it is. I have been praying ever since, and I hope he will show me the way soon enough.

I went for a party in the park this past Saturday, driving through the park was so cool yet scary because we passed so many animals on the road like giraffes, buffaloes, I was so scared they would attack. But we had a great bbq and it was nice kicking it with my friends.

My friend gave birth this weekend!! It was a natural birth, she is like my new hero!

March Downsides

I have been disappointed by so many people this month sigh, maybe that’s why the highlights are not so many..

Some of my girls are going through heartbreak right now, I cannot imagine going through all that again, worst feeling ever!

My workload has really increased this month, I pray that I will be diligent enough to withstand this..

March Discoveries

It is hard to stay away from things read as men who are totally bad for you.

Being over considerate takes you nowhere.

Be careful who you trust.

Once bitten, twice shy.

What I look Forward to In April

Easter weekend!! I have nothing grand planned, but I do look forward to doing a lot of nothing and hopefully having some fun in the process.

How was your month of March? What do you look forward to in April?

Hello February, single awareness month, shortest month of the year, leap year etc etc. I am very excited about this month because anything is possible!

January Highlights

Ushered in 2012 by the beach with my friends, and we had such a blast

Despite Janworry brokeness, rugby fever hit in a big way, and it’s been so much fun.

Discovered Thursdays are a great day to go out, despite the sufferation on Friday

Met a lot of new people which is always fun.

I went for very many happy hours :p

Got to celebrate my birthday, with the people closest to me and it was simply phenomenal!

January Downsides

The goodbyes, all the visiting summer bunnies always leave in January sigh.

Being confused, this is the last January I am doing this again!!!

January Discoveries

I am wondering whether I actually learn from my mistakes…

It’s funny how people change once they get into relationships.

No expectations, no disappointments.

Not everyone values the same things.

I am changing my priorities and reviewing my options.

What I Look Forward To In February

Feeling like the world is at my feet, and I have the power to do whatever I want.

Out of sight, out of mind.

 

How was January for you? What do you look forward to in February?

Kisses and cookies,

 

1st of the month

I am so ready for December, it is after all, the season to be jolly ain’t it? My word, 2011 is practically finished!

November Highlights

This month started off with a big bang, crashed an awesome party of a new friend. She really went all out and I met so many people I had not seen in a minute.  Went for another party same night, did some fun things

I went for Safaricom Sevens at Nyayo Stadium, we were all skeptical about it but I think it was a tremendous success.

I went for both days Saturday and Sunday, I enjoyed myself tremendously.

I bumped into someone I had unfinished business with. You know those people you meet that tickle your fancy, but you parted ways without exchanging contacts or anything, but you know you would bump into each other again? Yeah, well I met that guy this month. It was thoroughly entertaining, he is blunt, interesting and quite the charmer, but once again we never exchanged contacts, okay I refused to give him my number which I sort of regret but I know I will see him again so hey *shrugs*.

I got another chance to go quad biking in Lukenya, had fun but it was quite tedious.

I also got to meet someone after like 2 years, he is even more handsome than I remembered, and smells so good Yes, I get cheap thrills.

So yeah November was nice and polite, got to spend some time with my cousin which was very cool.

I got a cassette adapter for my car and it has transformed my driving experience! I bump to my own music in traffic and i love it.

November Downsides

There was nothing really awful about November, and for that I give God the glory

November Discoveries

If you want something, go out and get it.

Cameras and camera phones are everywhere!!! Beware!

You keep flaking out on me I am done trying to make an effort, though I miss you terribly … To my very good friend who I have not seen in a while.

Dance, EDM, Progressive, Kwaito, House music is well on the way of overtaking my love for Hip Hop, Pop and R&B.

No need to waste time and energy on people who are not the least bit bothered to do the same for you.

What I Look Forward To In December

I heart Christmas! Kicking it with the family, stuffing your face in, what’s not there to love?? I have no idea what we plan on doing this Christmas, but apparently karaoke is in the works so I am excited about that.

Summer Bunnies!!! Yes, many Kenyans are coming home for Christmas, some I know, others I will get to know if you catch my drift

Jamhuri day is on Monday, can you say 3 day weekend?? Though I do not have any grand plans, I am still very much excited about it

I am still not sure I will break for the holidays, but cross your fingers for me please.

Most of all I am looking forward to the fun times and holiday cheer

How was November for you? What are you looking forward to this December?

Smooches,

 

1st of the month

What a fantastic start to November, the sun is shining so brightly, it could only be a sign of amazing things to come.

October Highlights

October was a spectacular month, met some fantastic new people, discovered some really cool places to hang out and pass time at. Took my cousin shooting, which was lots of fun as documented here.

October was more about partying than adventures, I need more ideas on what cool adventures to embark on, so feel free to hit me up with some.

So yes, I went out a lot, did  a lot of dancing and mingling which was cool. Celebrated with my friends on their birthdays, kicked it with my pals on random days, sampled cocktails, oogled at pretty men, attended exclusive parties, it’s been real October

I became an aunty this month once again, though I have not met my niece yet, I am certain she is nothing but precious.

We celebrated my mother’s birthday too, we had a wonderful dinner which she loved. I pray she is blessed with many more years to come.

I got my cheap thrills from certain characters

I had last week off and I had such a lovely time. Vegetated in bed, frolicked at all the major malls, got to hang out with my family and friends, watched enough tv to fry my brains go figure, no wonder back to work has been so difficult.

October Downsides

My wallet got stolen last week My ID and my Chinese symbol silver stud went with it. The wallet is more of a purse, red in color, designed by Gucci, a gift from my aunt

I got most of my cards back but I had to go apply for another ID in Kibera which was pretty fast. Now I have to wait to go collect the card.

October Discoveries

Al Shabaab and this whole thing of Kenya invading Somalia, we are all on red alert right now which is quit unnerving.

I discovered I have to be careful about the things I say and who I  chose to say them too. Trust no one…

I do not like being smothered, my folks have raised me to be independent, they let me be.

When it comes to men, I do not want to settle. If you want me, come get me. If I want you, I have not decided if I will come after you yet :p this only applies to available men.

What I look forward to in November

I am still debating about whether I will go for Safaricom 7s or not…

I look forward to more fun times

I think I want to participate in NaNoWriMo, still deciding if I can hack writing 50,000 words in 30 days, but I will give it a short, you should too

How was October for you? What are you looking forward to in the month of November?

Candy and kisses,

1st of the month

This is going to be a spectacular month by the looks of things

September Highlights

Earth Dance was a great way to start the month, the ultimate dance party of the year!

I fulfilled a couple of my hearts desires this month. I did not kiss a giraffe, but it licked my hands, does that count? :p

I finally bought a new camera, it is not a big snazzy looking one, it is nice, small and compact, and it takes awesome pictures.

I went ice skating with a friend of mine, which was part of the list, and we had such a lovely time catching up and trying not to fall down on the ice.

I also went to the shooting range with my cousin, after like 3 or so years, and it was awesome. I love how every weekend has become a promise of a new adventure, I am totally loving it.

I had a ball during my random nights out, met some very interesting people and got to kick it with them.

I revived a hobby of mine, which lucky for me can generate some money. It is going well so far, and I pray I will keep up with this enthusiasm.

The best part about this month, was letting go of my past, realizing I made the best decision and moving on with my life. I have taken charge of my own happiness and it feels amazing

September Downsides

A lot of people died this past month in Kenya, which was awful.

A few of my friends got hurt this month, some by people who I totally never expected. I will not lie, I have lost faith in the fact that men have control over their actions. I am still trying very hard not to generalize, but the only way not to do that is to expect the unexpected…

September Discoveries

I am way too nice.

I have a powerful mind

Life is good and I deserve nothing but the best.

I have unfinished business with certain people, my curiosity will never end till it is finished.

What I look forward to in October

I am tres excited about Nairobi Fashion Market, even if I am already so broke, I hope I will get to go for it.

Kenyatta day is on Thursday \o/ the new constitution just had to rob us of Moi day smh.

I think I might celebrate halloween this year, let us see if I will be in the mood…

Finally, my mummy is turning 50 this month, and I need to think up something phenomenal to do for her. If you have any ideas, I am all ears.

How was September for you? What are you looking forward to in October?

July Highlights

This past Saturday I  had the pleasure of seeing other great bands performing live like Dove Slim, Camp Mullah and Muthoni the drummer queen who were all absolutely awesome.

Celebrated birthdays with my cousins and my close friends which was quite something.

July Downsides

This was not a very nice month, hence why I had to wrack my brains trying to think of what was good about it. Which sucks because July’s are usually the funnest and craziest months.

The biggest downside of this month was the passing of my grandad, I think the worst moment was seeing his casket being lowered into the ground, and how was my mother and her siblings were.  On the bright side, I have a new angel watching over me

I cried a lot this month, so many tears, I think I am all cried out now. I was always sad, and everything triggered tears. I am so glad that seems to be over now, and every day I pray for a smile.

I am still adjusting to certain situations in my life, ok just one so I was coming to terms with that loss gain. I am slowly getting over it, but I know eventually I will get there.

My vehicular phobia is kind of back, thanks to some idiotic driver under the influence. I was also an idiot entering a car subaru brrrr driven by someone that I do not know, and being encouraged to speed by his friends. Do not drink and drive is something that many of us take for granted, even though sooo many lives have been lost as a result. Anyway we came really close to over turning, and hitting a wall. We did a 360 degree turn on the road, and immediately the car stopped I got out of the car.  A lady who we had overtaken earlier stopped and gave us a ride.  I truly believe God sent us a guardian angel, and she was that angel.  Since that day,  am back to freaking out when someone speeds, or emergency brakes, and I am wary of being driven by people I do not know (and the way I am accustomed to cabbing smh).

July Discoveries

Do not drink and drive.

Speed kills.

Being selfish seems like the in thing, so I am joining that band wagon. No more putting other peoples needs before mine.

Adele is stalking me.

I may never be the same again..

What I look forward to in August

Joy, happiness, many smiles, random awesome things.

Change in lifestyle.

Adrenaline rush, I have a fun activity coming up this month and I am tres excited.

 

How was the month of July for you? What are you looking forward to this August?

Kisses and oreos,

Happy 4th of July to all my American readers

July is just a month for craziness, it is always epic!

June Highlights

My driving skills really improved this month which is great, I feel more confident on the road.

My cousin graduated and got a job and I am so happy for him.

Finally finished a project that I had been working on (yes I am tres proud of my project.)

Got to watch Just A Band perform live at Blankets and Wine and I had so much fun.

June Downsides

This month started out terribly, I am sure you even noticed I did not even get to do that edition of 1st if the month.

Anyhoosmu, I do not feel like dabbling in the details, I will just say things are totally different now and I am back to where I was before.

This month has been coupled with so much drama, and right now I just want peace which I am already attaining.

June Discoveries

I became that chic I had never wanted to become.

It sucks when you make so many sacrifices and they go unnoticed.

I need to be more in control.

It is good to let go and let God take the wheel.

What I look forward to in July

The endless birthday celebrations this month.

Trying to grow by changing the things I learnt about myself that I did not like.

How was the month of June for you? What do you look forward to in July?

April Highlights

Of course the best thing about this month was the really long weekends and the 4 day weeks #FTW.

Did I say that was the best thing? Scratch that I mean one of the best things about this month is my newly acquired blackberry curve. I am in love and strongly addicted. It feels like the world is on my finger tips. Every single shilling I spent on it was totally worth it!

My pal flew in from the UK and I got to see her which was cool, wish she had stayed longer though.

I am at a very happy place in my life right now

This is a different, new kind of happiness, which apparently is written all over my face because people seem to see it.

I have had the opportunity to make new friends, visit new places, it has been fun and exciting.

April Downsides

Some friends of mine lost loved ones, I am sure it has not been easy for them, but I pray for God to give them comfort.

My eating habits have become terrible!!! So bad I am thinking of getting an eating disorder!

April Discoveries

It is best to keep things to yourself.

Follow your instincts.

I need to keep praying for patience.

I think I need to become more strong willed, some people like taking advantage of my niceness.

What I look forward to in May

Right now my life seems to be full of surprises so I am ready for anything.

How was the month of April for you? What do you look forward to in May?

Glittery texts by bigoo.ws

I have been waiting for this month with bated breath! All these holidays in a span of days, I can hardly wait. I do not really have any grand plans, even the idea of doing nothing is exciting.

March Highlights

I started going to church a lot more often, which is something I hope I can maintain.

I finally got to go to a spa for a massage, and it was spectacular!! Of course the whole disrobing thing was uncomfortable at first, but luckily I had a female masseuse, and she had great hands. The next massage I must do is the hot stone treatment.

This month I came to realize chivalry is not dead, and that gentlemen do exist in men of a certain age it seems. I am basking in the attention, and enjoying being spoiled, but do not ask me what is going on, because nothing has been defined as yet..

 

hmmmmmmmmmm

 

March Downsides

I have been hounded by so many awkward moments this month, it is astounding how I even got through them. They do make for great conversation though, but I really hope I do not have to go through anymore, I may not have the strength for them.

I have not strictly stuck to my fast completely *hangs head in shame* due to certain circumstances. But I will try harder to adhere to my fast. The only thing I have stuck to is staying away from social networks, which has been easy though I cannot wait to resurface.

There are certain situations that I wish I was not caught in the middle of.

March Discoveries

The truth is hard to dish out, and harder to swallow.

Crossing some bridges is inevitable.

Some aspects of my life have already began changing..

What I Look Forward To In April

My friend has just landed in the country today, and I can hardly contain myself because I have really missed her.

Easter and Labor day

My other friend is leaving the country, which is a catch 22, but I will focus on the fact that it is a great opportunity for her.

How was March? What do you look forward to in April??
