I have found my calling: I am a scrapbooker. It could be worse you know. I could be compulsive farter, a compulsive kleptomaniac, but instead I am a scrapbooker. After getting 400 digital pictures developed mainly of my last three years in Joburg, I took over my lounge carpet and furiously cut, pasted, coloured in, stuck stickers and made a scrapbook. It took a blissful 5 hours. I normally do this after every holiday. Now I'm documenting EVERYTHING.
The 400 photographs got me thinking. The guys at Kodak must've thought I lead quite an interesting life. Take these ten photos, and you decide:
1) 12 naked people sitting in a jacuzzi at last year's Christmas party
2) Me running around with an inflatable dinosaur around my neck and a bottle of Pimms
3) Three of us on the stairs of uni a year later, smoking a joint. Gasp.
4) My ex dressed like a ghetto gangster.
5) Drinking around a fire on the beach in the dead of night at PLettenberg Bay.
6) Karaoke evenings
7) Scenic pictures of Johannesburg's inner city
8) The 80s party
9) The Goth party
10) My book club Fuckerware party - we got a rep to show us the latest and greatest in sex toys.
Which brings me to conclude: it's going to be tough traversing from early twenties to late twenties this month. Because my early twenties have kicked so much ass.

LC's photos had Kodak perplexed
Hadn't they seen a blow-up T-Rex?
Or 12 nude people in a jacuzzi before?
Or a Fuckerware party...need I say more?
Some students toking on their Uni's stairs?
LC singing without any cares?
I guess they didn't expect to see
The crazy early 20's of our cool LC
Hello you. Sounds like you've had a well entertaining 5 years of coolness. Keep it up! :D
OK I'm trying to decide whether yesterday's poem is better than this one. I'm thinking this one wins, because you crammed in 7 topics as opposed to five. Pure works of genius. Does it take you long to come up with this stuff, or do you just sort of jot it down?
Amazing.
Er, they usually take a couple of minutes if I'm honest. I just sort of write them and see what happens.
Glad they keep you amused :)
Do they keep me amused! Jon I wait in climatic anticipation for your poems! That's right, I really bloody well do!
It would take me half a day to come up with stuff like yours - maybe I'm just thick when it comes to poetry and riddles...so I'm leaving it up to you.
Aah bless ya LC. I humbly accept the position of official Poet Lauriate :)
it was I owe my friend Tea she knew I had been stressed from my divorce that had finally went through so she threw it as a graduation and your free party and I felt really good after
my bday is coming in November and my current hubby is taking to to a strip club here in Euro my first one (in europe-- I hear they are different than from Florida where we have the 6 inches away and dont touch law... thus no legal lap dancing LOL)
I don't think I;m a compulsive anything. I wanna have a compulsion!
The change is nothing, just wait for the switch from twenties to thirties.
It's a killer.
Good attitude, my fellow Virgo!
