I am so very tired, I cannot even begin to write this properly. I wish I had time to write my blog more but I am so busy and so tired all the time I never get a chance!
So much has been going on. I started working at the circus! 'Madame Zingara' in an area called Century City here in Cape Town. It is a circus restaurant and it is an amazing machine. That is the best way to describe it! It is run on a schedule and it is a crazy busy job but loads of fun. I think the greatest thing of it all is that I have met some of the most amazing people I have ever met in my whole life in the last two weeks. That is the reason why I came to Cape Town and why things have worked out the way they have. Every person is so unique and interesting in one way or another. Generally everyone is quite arty and they all have something a special about them. I am excited to get to know everyone better and have some fun over the next few months (as well as hopefully making some money too!) I have a few jobs booked for 'Afrodizzyacts' but will focus on that a bit more once winter is over and more is going on in Cape Town.
The World Cup started yesterday on mine and my mum's birthday. (Same day if you didn't know!) What a great day! I had worked on the Thursday night and from the stroke of midnight I had several tequila shots bought for me and became a little bit of a drunk bum! Had great fun though! Woke up on my birthday late for my free hair appointment (yay!) I love birthdays! Free stuff! Managed to get there on time and sat like a zombie whilst they blow dried my hair! They then proceeded to bring out a bottle of champagne as a birthday pressie to which I felt horribly ill! Will keep that for another day! Later on in the afternoon we went to meet up with some friends to watch the opening ceremony and the opening game. South Africa vs Mexico. I will never forget the moment South Africa scored their first goal. The partying, the dancing, the vuvuzela's being blown on Long Street was amazing! What an atmosphere and what a great day to have my birthday! We also managed to meet some amazing new people and had a really fun evening talking and dancing the night away!
Tomorrow I am having my official celebrations, and heading first thing in the morning to watch 'Sex & the City 2' at the cinema, dragging poor Marty with me (he loves it really!) Then we will spend the afternoon at a sweet little Chinese and Sushi Restaurant in Long Street with some old and some new friends. I am very much looking forward to it and hope that a fair few people will come. I always have a party as it is always a good excuse for a get together! I am sure I will do it for the rest of my life! Glad my mum had a little party too, I do so hope that next year we can spend it together as it has been nearly 11 years of separate birthdays, and besides.... next year I am going to be 30! Aaaaaaaah!!!!
I wonder when I will ever grow up?! x
