Mini-vacay....


Hi dolls,


After a gruelling 2 weeks of interviews ,school and work ,I finally got a much needed and desired vacation. I was taken(I honestly can't afford to treat myself at this point in time!) to a really beautiful island by the boy(significant other).
Words cannot begin to describe how breathtakingly beautiful this place is. So here's an article that will do it better justice than I ever will.


Best moment there-smoking shisha and drinking wine(I don't recommend doing this alone as you might be tempted to skinny dip in the lake and I have it on good authority that there are crocodiles) at a campfire made just for me and the boy.


Loved it, Couldn't have imagined anything more rejuvenating.


To the boy, I love that you feel the need to pamper me and I feel truly blessed to have you.

Virgins?!...Yes,really.

Hi dolls,

Just broke (why do they say broke..sounds so physical! But I guess it is a physical activity) my virginity quite recently(or not depending on how you look at it, been almost a year now). So I was looking for a website(which funny enough is the reason for this post) which can help other virgins break(for lack of a better word) their own virginity. Now I know all y'all are scampering throught the words(Pervs!) trying to get to the juicy bits.
Well, my first time was not easy at all. I frankly did not know what I was doing and my hands were all over the place but I had a good guide. She eased me into the whole process! Unfortunately,I know people like her are rare so here's a website to help all ye virgins out there. http://www.linuxvirgins.com/index.html

Go figure!

A la Interview..deux!

Hey dolls,

I have an interview today, scared shit less! At the moment, I really can't regurgitate anything sensible so just decide to write you a manual. IT Barbie's guide to preparing for interviews. Here goes;

1. Read, read and read and then some more. No use going for the damn thing if you don't know anything.
2. Make sure you know the place the interview is going to be carried out. If you get lost prior to getting there, this will just throw you off hence fail.
3. Dress up. And don't take this lightly this is the deal breaker..at least for me. Don't be tacky. Don't be flashy. Be classy.
3(b) It never hurt to wear good lingerie(underwear for men). This is your shield people! So you can have a smug look when anyone looks at you cause you're thinking.."am effing hot from head to toe."
4.Comb your hair. Tres tres importante. Hair says alot about you(Don't go believing that India Arie crap..she only sang that to sell records. She didn't really mean it!)
5. The most important one of all. Act as if you already have the job. Ever heard of fake it till you make it. This is it right here.
Wish me luck dolls,
xoxo

Belle...


Hi dolls,


Miss me much?! Yeah, me too. Anyhow, just wanted to let you know about my newest obsession-Belle de jour! Go on..google it. You'll be shocked. My last post was about being lady-like and such and now here I am obsessing about an ex-hooker. Well, this hooker is different! And dolls, I highly recommend that you pick up one,scratch that, all of her books. You'll be enthralled..and mind you this is not a gender specific post. Men, you too will enjoy them. they are a good read and a delicious laugh. Just finished the first and I just cant wait to get my hands on the others.

Here's a description of the one I've just finished.


Belle de Jour is the nom de plume of a high-class call girl working in London. This is her story. From the summer of 2003 to the autumn of 2004 Belle charted her day-to-day adventures on and off the field in a frank, funny and award-winning web diary. Now, in her Intimate Adventures, Belle elaborates on those diary entries, revealing (among other things) how she became a working girl, what it feels like to do it for money, and where to buy the best knickers for the job. From debating the literary merits of Martin Amis with naked clients to smuggling whips into luxury hotels, this is a no-holds barred account of the high-class sex-trade, and an insight into the secret life of an extraordinary woman.

Do check out the series as well. Billie Piper does Belle justice. Love her.

Bye dolls.

A virtuous woman....


Hey dolls,

Just turned 22 a week ago. Been thinking about what direction my life should take and I found this amazing verse from the bible(Am not religious at all trust me!!) But I feel it truly defines what kind of woman I would like to be. So here goes;

The Proverbs 31 Woman :
Her character as a wife
An excellent wife, who can find?For her worth is far above jewels.
(rare, precious).The heart of her husband trusts in her,And he will have no lack of gain.
(trustworthy).She does him good and not evil All the days of her life(kind).

Her Devotion as a homemaker
She looks for wool and flax And works with her hands in delight(works joyfully).
She is like merchant ships; She brings her food from afar(goes extra mile to get choicest goods).
She rises also while it is still night And gives food to her household And portions to her maidens(disciplined).
She considers a field and buys it; From her earnings she plants a vineyard(enterprising, prudent with money).
She girds herself with strength And makes her arms strong (energetic).
She senses that her gain is good;Her lamp does not go out at night(good steward).
She stretches out her hands to the distaff,And her hands grasp the spindle. (diligent)

Her Generosity as a Neighbour
She extends her hand to the poor,And she stretches out her hands to the needy(compassionate, generous)

Her Devotions as a Homemaker
She is not afraid of the snow for her household,For all her household are clothed with scarlet.
(provident)
She makes coverings for herself; Her clothing is fine linen and purple (elegant)
Her husband is known in the gates,When he sits among the elders of the land(influential)
She makes linen garments and sells them,And supplies belts to the tradesmen(industrious)

Her Influences as a Teacher
Strength and dignity are her clothing,And she smiles at the future(poised)
She opens her mouth in wisdom,And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue(wise)

Her effectiveness as a Mother
She looks well to the ways of her household,And does not eat the bread of idleness(manages her home)
Her children rise up and bless her;Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:(praiseworthy)"Many daughters have done nobly,But you excel them all." (distinguished)

Her excellence as a Person
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
(God-fearing)
Give her the product of her hands,And let her works praise her in the gates(honored)
~ Proverbs 31:10-31

And the fat lady sang....

Hey dolls,

It's been awhile since I last blogged and trust me contrary to popular belief it's not about a lack of things to blog about,it's just that too much has been happening and I got caught up in it all. So here are the updates;

Firstly, am still a temp (sucks, right?! I know) but a happy temp nonetheless. Well, there's a lot of bottlenecks to my becoming permanent and it's taking awhile to remove them. Am happy cause all my friends are helplessly pounding the streets of kampala in search for jobs where they'll pay them a fraction of what I earn as a temp!! Forgive me,I have to gloat.

Secondly, I finally got round to actually signing up for linux training. I gave up trying to learn it on my own. I wont lie, it's boring. so now everyday from 6pm to 9pm am in a little class east of this town trying to get my open source on! I fully intend to finish and actually do the LPI exams (God forbid this goes down the ORACLE way, the certification I trained for but didn't actually do the exams for!)

Thirdly, no thirdly..same ol same ol. No wait ..there is a third. I finally got round to actually getting a business partner and we are starting our very own computer company. We want to focus on network solutions but since we're just starting out, we're beginning with servicing contracts. Momma is indeed a hustler!

Oh and lastlty...unfortunately..i grew older..been on this earth for 22 years. Have nothing to show for it though! Oh and I survived the effin blast. Scared about where this country is headed. just have to wait and see. The bit about the fat lady...I've gained an enormous amount of weight..I feel fat!! Not happy about that one. :(

Ciao,
xoxo
