Less is WAY more

ok so now that my internet is back up to full speed after 3 weeks of like snail paced internet im back on youtube watching videos again and firmly believe that less is more.. the kind of videos i watch on youtube are reviews and haul videos (fashion and makeup) but recently ive been watching shoe collection videos just out of curiousity and OMG.. i feel like i have no shoes! i could probably talk about my shoes for 3-5 mins but these videos go for 10+ mins and they're edited down and chopped up. SURPRISINGLY i feel good about not owning that many shoes because i love each and every shoe i own and i wear them all. i'm just going to list them down to see if i really do have a big or small collections

* Nike retro sneakers
* Nike all white AirForce1s
* Converse white hi-tops
* Converse blue low
* Rubi shoes black
* Rubi shoes brown
* Rubi shoes purple
* Novo black ankle high heel boots
* Novo black platform sling backs
* brown knee high high heel boots
* flat black knee high leather boots
* cream ankle boots
* red tony bianco sling backs
* candy patent black sling backs
* 3 pairs of havaiana thongs
* RMK bronze high heels
* mary jane high heels
* patent black platform high heels

okay now that i think about it thats still a lot of shoes.. but i guess my defence is that i really do wear them all and i dont plan on buying anymore shoes in the near future.

Ageing gracefully..

I had one of those moments where you catch yourself in the mirror and cant believe what you see... considering i am only 23 but also considering how much "life" i have lived in 4 quick years... i feel like ive aged about 15 years in that amount of time.

Uneven & dull skin, my face doesnt look as tight and fresh as its used it.. my pores look like they're trying to send signals to beings in space.. my acne still hasnt completley gone away.. scars from my past life that are as stubborn as me and refuse to fade..

Ok so problems are identified so im guessing the next thing is to find a solution but i have no idea if i should be reaching for an anti aging cream, a pore refining lotion, a mosturiser for acne prone skin?!? and dont even get me started on a night cream!! hmmm... and all this on top of going over the millions of things i have to do today..

yay

DVS dinner + shopping

So last night I had dinner with 2 of my favourite girls (apart from my daughters). we go waaaayyy back like "i knew you when you were in your mums tummy" kind of way back and as always, its nice to catch up with these ladies.. we dont get to see each other as much as we used to but when were all together its still pretty much the way its always been, which is hard to find in friends. we're more like sisters. Suprisingly when we discussed what it would be like to live all together none of us could see that lasting very long. hehe..

Before dinner we kinda did some light shopping in a cheap store and each came away with something. Its nice to go shopping with girls who know what you like and what looks good on you. So we head off to dinner and order our steaks. We have serious convos, ridiculous reminiscing, misheard confussions, catching up on the goss, seeing where we're all at in our lives.. the usual girl talk. These girls make me laugh like no one else can. Dinner comes and turns out our craving for steak wasnt as big as we thought it was... we go for coffee to bring up more embarrassing stories from our life long friendship. I've been needing a night like this for a long time.

we take ONE photo all night which if you knew what we were like in our teens is a big deal. but really with our friendship its about quality not quantity.
