i'll blog soon

when there's something worth blogging about

(and when im not feeling lazy)

#nowplaying "TGIF" by Katy Perry

“Dogs have Owners, Cats have Staff.”

"on the stoop w/ my dogs, drinking jasmine tea"

it's my new favourite hobby

to drink tea outside at sunset and just watch them

 

"If you don't own a dog, there is not necessarily anything wrong with you, but there may be something wrong with your life"

"Many years ago, when an adored dog died, a great friend, a bishop said to me, "You must always remember that as far as the Bible is concerned, God only threw the humans out of Paradise"

they're the single most amazing things that i've ever been blessed with

they're always there for hugs and kisses

and are always so excited, each and everytime they see me

how can you explain a love like that?

and pixie is incredibly jealous and such an attention seeker

and rusty thinks a pet on the head is the best gift i could ever give him

and...

as much as i want a little puppy,

they do complete my life.

freckles

only the best movies

silly conversations

crystallized by the XX on guitar

(played by me, and played even better by nicolas)

sushi

good music

spilling popcorn infront of the entire movie theater and then being the only one to laugh about it

pizza

water fountains

home renovations planning

tea

lots of tea

jasmine tea

jade nailpolish

vanilla incense

chocolate

family

photographs

sleep overs

wii

trying to keep calm

and thinking about nothing but God

this weekend was lovely.

xoxo

it's a lovely song

I was a little girl

alone in my little world

who dreamed of a little home for me.

I played pretend between the trees,

and fed my house guests bark and leaves,

and laughed in my pretty bed of green.

  I had a dream
that I could fly

from the highest swing.
I had a dream.

Long walks in the dark

through woods grown behind the park,

 I asked God who I'm supposed to be.

 The stars smiled down on me,

God answered in silent reverie.

I said a prayer and fell asleep.


I had a dream
that I could fly from the highest tree.
I had a dream.

Ooooooohhoooooohhhoooooh

I had a dream

cookie & kisses

i cant explain my love for them

Oh Fuck

it's past 2am

and i've been meaning to blog about a boy

and if you know me when it comes to blogging, then you should know i procrastinate to the max

this time a took it a step further and typed

"how to better yourself"

into google

yes.

it happened.

bet you didn't take me seriously when i said i like to procrastinate, until now

and this mini quiz came up

which i took of corse

and Oh My Fuck

i know it's late

and that i should make tea and probs go pack the dishwasher

but the results are so close to accurate

flip.

......i really should go to bed

anyway, take a look:



Your view on yourself:

You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

and maybe im crazy to be blogging about this

maybe this is another form of procrastination

but all i can say, is that if you didn't know me 

you now have a basic understanding

and yes there's so much more to me

but....

actually i dont have a but

and while im telling people how they should feel about me

i might as well add that i hate judgemental people

and people who are mean and make fun of others for a laugh

grow up!

xoxo

Dear parents.

#butreally

old friends die hard.



a while ago an old friend sent me this

she wrote it for me at the end of matric

and i honestly still think its the sweetest thing

"Dearest Lisa’tjie

Having you as a friend has added so much value to my life: from the first time I spoke to you- (I was in desperate need of a photo coping card in grade 9- Ms Simpson’s class.) You were the only one who owned one AND with R10 credit on- freak! Haha. I told you that you were my guardian angel, you just laughed. I remember when my nail broke you wiped out a fully equipped ‘tool box/ pencil case’ to pass me a nail file. When my Matric ball dress fell apart you gave me a pin and everything was just fine! How do I say Thank You- it’s just two small words with so much meaning.

Having you as a friend meant 2 hour phone calls, laughing till I cry and forgetting to say goodbye. Having you as a friend meant listening to boys stories, spending lunch time giving you advice and you agree to take it. When Mondays come, you had done the exact opposite! Having you as a friend meant concentrating really hard to remember all the boys names lol J “Ammy, you know (insert name) from (insert place), his really funny and cute, I like him! My response: “Ah Lisa but his like ancient old and that like illegal!” Haha. I guess having you as a friend meant that I had to be the “Aunty” in the relationship- well, not all the time.

Having you as a friend meant living life to the fullest, being daring and enjoying every moment of it! Even though you might have done a few silly things, you were incredibly bright and you were my special friend. So from the first photo coping card to the first Heineken you bought me, I knew that we would have a great friendship!

Keeping all this in mind, it makes saying goodbye (at the end of matric) a little easier because I know that a HUGE part of you will always be with me!"

we aren't friends anymore

and i remember clearly how she ended our friendship

her stupid reasons

 i cant even be heartbroken about it

if someone doesn't want to be in my life thats their issue

and she still kinda keeps in touch

mostly bc i think she feels bad, and misses me

im not even sure why she sent me this email

or what she expects me to say

maybe she knows she made a mistake and wants me to feel sorry for her

maybe she wants to know if i feel the same way

maybe she wants to be friends again

LOL

people are stupid.

thoughts when drunk #butreally

im drunk, not stupid

you know how your friends say "you could have any guy you want"

its true

guys are easy

the trick when you're drunk, comes when you have to pick a guy

a guy who's worth your time

someone who will buy you drinks

crack afew jokes

dance like a pro

and basically make you feel like a million bucks

this kinda guy isn't really hard to find, if you're goodlooking and maybe a lil tipsy already

or maybe im just really good at finding this kind of guy

#manipulationiskey

you shouldn't settle for anything less, no matter how low your standards are

you shouldn't be too easy

and you shouldn't waste your time with some loser

bc in this time, you could be chatting it up with mr right now

never feel obligated to talk to a loser

its okay to:

1. take your drink and go
2. let him help you up on stage and then dance with his friend
3. say "gross, go away"
4. tell the nearest guy that he's annoying you and let that guy deal with him
5. take his cigarette -- bc this is basically like saving his life
6. walk away [sidenote, only do this in emergency cases, walking away shows weakness, and is soo much effort, why walk away, when you can make him do it!]
7. tell him you dont like him "I DONT LIKE YOU! YOU'RE STUPID" .... honesty is the best policy

coming across losers is a part of life

and when sober, losers are much easier to deal with

but

never let a loser bring you down

and try not to kiss him

though if you do, you could always deny it for the rest of your life, so its super chilled if you do

though, kissing losers only makes them more clingy, so save yourself the trouble

practise makes perfect

so practise not letting losers get in your way

go out, get drunk and have an amazing night with mr right now

be invincible to losers!

bitches rule.

Bounce: Hands to the sky and throw your head back

i like not being smart when it comes to you

my love for #myGuy isn't logical

it isn't even really real

but he's the perfect distraction

the best

i saw him briefly Friday night

i also realised that i dont like him as much as i thought i did

i don't know what im going to do about him

oh
and i stole his beanie.

xoxo

love me or leave me alone.

been having such a good day, up until now

nicolas left, and im home alone

(yes burning horrible smelling incense changes my mood)

i dont even feel like blogging

my nails are metallic silver and look like coins

im drinking delicious tea

am having a good hair day

and im listening to "top of the world" on repeat

still, im bleak

maybe i need to take a nap

maybe i shouldn't have gone to bed at 5am

maybe i wish people were a little nicer

and that i wasn't so heartbroken all the time

(yes, last night hurt)

everything shouldn't be this hard

 

x

pictures coming soon.

yes, i've become abit obsessed with editing photo's

"Lisa changed her profile picture"

(so much is going on, i have afew crazy things to blog about, cant wait)

xoxo

sometimes i wonder

its past 4am

and ever since this afternoon i've been wondering....

i sat for hours, just in his arms

and we talked

i played with his hair

and he tangled his fingers in what ever loose item of clothing i was wearing

he really liked me

and now that its all over

i cant forget

(and if it were up to me, i'd never have wanted it to end)

"why wont you call me emma?" #modernfamilyquote

and im sitting here on the floor drinking mint green tea

wondering if he misses me,

 if those moments meant as much to him as it did to me

i am so inlove with him.

i wonder if he remembers....

i miss him.

xoxo

my latest obsession

im just a girl

with a bedazzeld phone cover

dont hate it

embrace it.

xoxo
