last day of challenge

It’s the last day of the challenge and I am supposed to share a picture of myself, but since i was totally caught in a storm a few minutes ago, I shall be sharing a older pic . . .or in this case pics

challenge 9: songs

 
 
I love music I really do! but I don’t think I know two songs that stand out above the rest, I like french jazz, pop gospel, some R&B and hip-hop, it’s all about what song speaks to me and when and where my mind is at the time. The only music I can think of that has ALWAYS spoken to me is the Disney classics you know beauty and the beast, snow white, those songs, I remember singing along with my cousins when I was young and dreaming of being a voice over artist one day (yes I was sensible didn’t dream of being a princess, hehe)
 
 
 
 
 
 

Seven months in heaven

kannimports.com

Yesterday marked, Logan’s seven month heavenaversary, Its so strange how the pain is still so raw, but also so much more manageable, we are slowly learning to live with him in our hearts instead of in our arms, but given the choice we would pick him up from our dreams, hold him tight and never let go. Some things in life you cant control, and others you can, we cant bring him back, even if my heart aches to do just that, but we can control how we let this loss affect us. It is inevitable that this will change us, the question is… will it make us or break us, I like to think that both Rob and I are/have grown through this, in many ways this vulnerability has made us strong,

We still miss you our little boy and vow to life a life to make you proud . . .

Challenge day 8 – Film

I am in no shape or form a film buff, infact, the movies I LOVE are seen as juvenial by most, but thing is. . . I don’t care, I love watching comedies and these are my all time favs . . .

Zoolander

So much funny!!!! I can quote most of the movie

Arthur

The Russel Brand version, actually rewatched it last night, it’s the perfect mix of sentiment and comedy

Grease

Always been a fan of sing along and Grease is where it all started I can recite this movie start to finish, but must admit some of the phrases only made sense later in life, quite risque for it’s time hey

day 7 all about books

I LOVE LOVE reading but I honestly dont have any books that hold prime space on my book shelf and I suck at remembering authors names, my friends will be all, oooh love the epic work of bladie bladie and I’m like uhm I like funny books (cause I do) and  I really like true life drama (because I really do) luckily I should be able to think of atleast four… here goes

1. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

I reread this classic EVERY YEAR usually Decembers time,  I just love the way they speak and interact, never get tired of it

2. Animal Farm

I’m more than aware that this is the type of book given to kids as a school project BUT the symbolism and the links to every day life are so hard too miss, it’s a must read!

3. ANYTHING by Marian Keyes

LOVE, LOVE,LOVE her, soooo witty so touching so many things

4. Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

Another must re-read classic . . .
