2 weeks to go!

Well in two weeks time I will be at the airport. Scary thought because I cant belive how quickly the days are going! Loving being home and actually think I could settle down again....suppose thats only because Ive only been here a week. Bet you that after a week or two I would want out again!

So nothing exciting has happened. Went to Gym yesterday morning and man do my legs hurt!!! Its not even funny! Here I thought I was rather fit and all that....NOT! Even my arms hurt! Nice workout though and probably gonna get the gym again tomorrow. Got action cricket again tonight which is ALWAYS fun! :)

Watched a friend play Ice Hockey last night which was rather entertaining. Really should learn some of the rules for next time cause it was rather confussing at times!!

Should go! My phone bills are going to be HUGE!!! As Julie always says, "we only live once and its only money!!"

Outta here!

Short weeks summary!

So its been a week at home and well Im starting to get nice and settled. Leaving in two weeks is going to be a little tough! :) So many things I miss about living on land! Driving has to be the first one! I miss it sooooooo much and wish I could hide a car somewhere on the ship! *g*

Its been an interesting week with WAY to much alchohol, good food and of course some male issues....MEN!

The male issue is just to LONG and makes me angry/sad/annoyed/pissed off each time I think about it. To cut it short, the guy I WAS seeing, couldnt not shag his X who came to visit for 4 days! I really hope he made the best of those 4 days and that he has started looking for a new girl, cause Im out of this "relationship!!"
Sorry to genealize but dont men think? 4 days with his x or longer with his girl? Funny thing is once shes gone, and he is sitting alone on the ship (which is boring as hell now because there are only a few people on it and its in dry dock) and he starts to think, he is gonna really regret it! Silly Chop! They should implant something into the male brain that can over-ride the male penis for just 30 secs to help them think with the right brain! To give you poor buggers one moment of conciqence thoughts....Pity we cant revise some things we do because he has thrown what we had away.....No chance in hell I want him back!

Julie's sister is getting married on Saturday so we threw her a hen party. No strippers (fiance said we're not allowed to get one) but lots of tequila. Made her walk around in a little white tutu....very very funny!!

Saturday night was the big one!! Started at my god-mom's house for Lasange! (she still makes the best). From there we went to Saints, Po na na, moved on to a nice little place called Pulse (where I might have been dancing on the bar) and then to the famous Bronx. For those of you who don't know, its a gay bar in greenpoint but man does it ROCK!! Had LOADS of fun.....WAY to much to drink....and woke up saying the famous "Im never drinking again sentence!"

Sunday was long and man was very fragile!!! Did however still manage to get my ass up the ladder and go for a swing on the Flying Trapeze. Its been 17 months so I wont lie....it was SCARY!!!! Soooo HIGH!! Hopefully the weather over the weekend will be good again so we can go for another session. Now I remember why I got hooked...its a FAB feeling! :)

Hit Club duvet at 21h30 last night....feeling like a human today and not sleep deprived! Gonna head to the gym now and then probably the beach. Its another BEAUTIFUL beach day in Cape Town. Waiting to hear from Lea cause we might have to put the beach on hold to go jump out of a perfectly good aeroplane......never skydived and decided that its time..........IM SOOOO EXCITED! :)

Must dash!

Right so its been one of the longest days of my life!!!! Cant believe that something could be quite so boring!

Before heading back to the ship, Julie and I have to do a course of some sort....SWTC and well, its suppose to be for people who are joining ships for the first time. We have been living on a cruise ship for 17 months now and they are teaching us stuff we knew after only one month onboard. Have never fallen asleep in class before and well, today I did, but like 6 times. Eventually had to stand up to watch the one video which didnt seem to be much more helpful because I almost dosed off again!

Anywhoo tomorrow is the fun part apparenlty. Climbing out of water, up ladders and stuff....THANK HEAVENS!!

Rather sore today after playing indoor cricket. Its my first game since I left 17 months ago and man do I hurt. Was so so so much fun and am hoping to play another game before leaving!!

Internet at home is soooo slow! I cant believe how slow it is. Its ridiculous!! Im bored of waiting.....


Right, bored of waiting!
Im off

Which tarot card am I ?

This is what's said about me...........


You are the Sun card. The light of the Sun reveals all. The Sun is joyful and bright, without fear or reservation. The childish nature of the Sun allows you to play and feel free. Exploration can truly take place in the light of day when nothing is hidden. The Sun's rays fill you with energy so that you may live life to its fullest, milking pleasure out of each day. Such joy and energy can bring wealth and physical pleasure. To shine in the light of day is to have confidence, to soak up its rays is to feel the freedom of a child.

Home sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet home!

After a HORRRIBLE flight with Air France (advice, DONT Fly with them!), we arrived home!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good to be here!! I havent really slept since I left Europe on Friday with a total of about 5 hours on the plane and then 4 last night! After this Im hitting my bed and HARD!

Cape Town is pretty much Cape Town! The weather is POOOOFY at the moment but Im hoping the week will brings lots of sun and beach days! :)

Will add some more info ASAP but you know what its like being home with a just a little bit of time!

Trying to make it out strong

My poor body has been fighting off some kind of sickness. Normally Julie is the one who falls ill but this time its hit me. On one day last week, the doctor on board saw 160 crew. Some SERIOUS bug going around I tell you.
My voice is all croaky and sometimes I think it might be better just to keep my mouch shut which we all knows is almost impossible!

The weeks has flown by leaving me 3 more days. I cant believe the weeks have flown by so quickly.....where did the 7 months go!?

Looking forward to home....always do I guess. This time I have 3 weeks which means at least I wont be running around like a complete nutter again!! Last time it was way to intense!
Got a few parties planned and then one being on the eve of my arrival. What are the chances that my mom is actually going to let me out of the house? Can only try I guess!!

Havent started packing but have had some thoughts about it. Hope those count! Going to try and pack "light" this time...its not something I do very well!! Its a big challenge which I plan on taking with both hands!

Got 4 shows left (2 tonight and 2 tomorrow night) which should be fun as its tradition to play tricks on each other on the final show. A few things planned and hoping Im not a target! :)
Watching the magic show last night was sad!! The couple I was talking about are Cripton and Jasmine. She was so professional and did sooooo well....she eventually cracked in the finale and started crying. I just wanted to get onto the stage and hold her tight. Love is just a lot of crock!! Why give your heart to someone when you know the chances of getting fucked over are so big? Imagine 10 years of your life thrown away because he had to go and play....rumour has it she forgave him and said that its their life and they can still make it work....he turned around and said he doesnt want to sort it out...he wants a divorce!

As for my relationship, my mind has been working over time....Yoni has an ex coming to visit and I still dont know what the story is going to be...we sat up all night talking about it the other day....it was 6am and I could have stayed awake...I could have carried on talking but you know when you reach the stage of just talking in circles.....pointless...

Last time in Corfu, for now that is...who knows if I will ever see this place again. I cant believe how many different cities I have seen in the last 16 months!! Brazil again which in itself is just a HUGE treat.....Copocabana here I come!

Time to jet!
