For the love of coffee

Ok, when it comes to actually posting to my blog I am severely failing!!! I however made a commitment to post before the week is up, no time like the present so here it goes…

How original of me I know, but herewith my “7 things you didn’t know about me”…

1. I started a Christian youth magazine by the name of Truth when I was 19. I was the editor of said magazine for 4.5 years, I loved it, sadly though it ceased to exist shortly after I left.
2. I was an air hostess for Emirates airlines for just over a year, I lived in Dubai and became quite well acquainted with how best to tell people to get knotted with a smile on my face. It was an amazing experience, I got to see the world and learnt a lot about myself and what it means to truly serve people in the process. I can also speak a smidgen of Arabic as a result, just a smidgen though ☺
3. I love cartoons, animations etc… I have numerous figurines in my possession, some of which include a “talking” Darth Vader,  Stewie from the Family Guy, Elmo, Gromit, Wonder Woman… Ok I will stop now before I completely blow any semblance of “cool factor” I still have left ☺
4. I am a qualified make-up artist. I love make-up, like most women and find great pleasure in applying it – its my creative outlet, well one of them.
5. I love music, love, love, guess with a name like mine you have to. I played guitar for a while, but am keen to learn to play bass guitar and drums even – If I could play every instrument I would be a happy woman – and no I cannot sing, well I can sing, but I do not consider myself a good singer by any means – I feel the need to say this upfront as EVERYONE I ever meet asks me this question.
6. I never touched coffee, my whole life, up until about a year ago, I am now a full blown addict and have at least 3 cups a day and the guys at Vida café know me by name. I clearly am an all or nothing girl.
7. I was a ballet, tap and modern dancer from the age of 5 till after matric. I love dancing, once a dancer always a dancer. I have since given up dancing, other than my weekly hip hop class and have replaced dance classes with gym my other love in life. If I don’t go to gym at least 4 times a week I cannot function!

So there, I trust you feel somewhat better acquainted with me now ☺ I am meant to tag people – so there – tag you’re it:
