Insomnia
- Why the hell won’t you leave me alone? I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in a while…even when I’m not stressing, even when I’m calm, I still can’t sleep.
- Anyone know good cures for insomnia? Cause I’ve tried so many…nothing is working.
Friends
- I hate breaking up with friends. This one breakup is slow…and although on the outside I act as if what you do doesn’t concern me in the least, it does..and it hurts. But yeah…sooner or later the inside Val will catch up with the outside Val…
- Feeling warm fuzzy feelings for the few who know the girl behind the Val persona….they all fill different roles in my life..and off late, have been working triple overtime shifts just to get me back to me. From forcing me to snap out of my self-pity and allowing me to thoroughly b*tch when I need to; Conversations about the serious and the non-serious (from school to the joys of having Fanta Orange with banana bread, custard and chicken after a boozy night); Playing me jazz when you know I’m not sober; Having conversations that are so dramatic we turned them into a series (I think we’re up to season 4); Cooking me chips at 3 am just because I was craving some chips; Talks about the boys of our lives (and the possibility of cougardom); Telling it to me straight; Inspiring me to go jogging at 6 am (Note: Key word is inspired..mebe someday I’ll put that inspiration to good use); Inspiring me to do better (how you manage your schedule and still have time for the people in your life..I have no clue)…So to them..I say a heartfelt thanks..(Toasting this with some Rose..yum!)
- Me family..Woop! Going to see the parents in a few days…actually I’ll have to get up at the crack of dawn to get to the airport…but oooh happy day! I still feel like a little girl who’s heard the icecream van jingle when my dad says something as simple as “I’m so proud of you”. It put a smile on my face..and despite the self-drama I put myself through the past couple of days….it still makes me smile…ooh and the fact that he’s planning to get a “special haircut” from the barber’s…just for me
Now this is why I will never settle for less in an XYcoz daddy is one amazing man! As for my mama…no words…She hasn’t called me at 6am in a while. (then again, she’s on leave)..but still, calls to tell me random things….plus she is making me chappos this weekend..I have told her so…happy day! - My sisters, cousin and bestest uncle in the world…they have kept me from losing my sanity..I won’t lie….
Panic attacks
- Suffered from a bad one today…which totally spoiled my day..and had me clutching my chest in severe pain for a couple of hours.
- One side effect of all these nerves clashing together? The energy to totally blitz the house. Thankfully for me, the dirty housemates are not in..so I know when I wake up tomorrow, the house will still be pristine(yeah for the small pleasures in life).
- Forgetting you have just done a hawt manicure (see pic below) and attacking the inside of the oven to the skirting boards does NOT do wonders for the said nails…the way I wanted to show these off to hisself…oh wells..

Randomzies:
- Twitter is one addictive thing……some tweepies in particular..ahaha..all I have to say to y’all is whatever you’re inhaling is pretty potent stuff.
- Question: Why do certain people click on a blog post. Read it all the way to the end and then write some immature responses? Is there no other way for you to voice your opinion? I mean, no-one is saying that you have to agree with the author of the post…but surely, you can’t come up with a response without insulting the author and/or the other commenters? SMH
