Mediator Series...Meg Cabot

"I can see ghosts. I can talk to ghosts. And, if necessary, I can kick some serious ghost butt."

Get thrown into the amazing life of Susannah Simon with her unearthly gift to see trapped and tortured souls. This book kept me turning pages all through the night. It's seriously one of my favorite series yet! She is required to send the souls into their next realm, but when she finds an unsuspecting guest living in her new bedroom, will she do whats right, and send the dashing young lad away to the afterlife, or slip into crazy and irrational love with him? I highly recommend this six part series to all who believe in life after death and maybe even love after life. The person responsible for this exciting, fast-paced novel is Meg Cabot, also author of The princess diaries and the Abandoned series! I could just read this series again and again and never get bored!!


Check it out guys, you won't regret! xxx

That ol' Valentine

Hey angels. 

So as you all know the big VALENTINES day is coming up soon. So I was thinking of giving you a perfect date idea that is low budget.

Breathtaking Beach Getaway for...two

What you need:

  • Over-sized beach towel or blanket
  • strawberries
  • chocolate
  • candles
  • two large pillows
  • picnic basket 
  • some assorted snacks that you both will love.

To do?

All you need now is a sunset and a beach that is not too crowded. Set your blanket down (not too close to the shore break, you don't want to get wet.) Then place the candles in the sand next to the blanket.. not on top and light them to get a warm, glowing romantic affect. Set out a plate of strawberries and chocolate out in the middle of the blanket and the snacks. Place the pillows on either side of the assorted snack and whaalaa! There you have a low budget date for two.


Imagine sharing a sweet kiss in a back round like this...

The Debutantes Ball

Hey hey everyone so on Friday was the debs ball (held at Collisheen estate), first of all here are a few pics...














Us girls and our dates (I'm in silver).
My date and I (Colben Holmes).
















Colben and I again, here you get a better view of my dress.


The night was amazing, the food was great and the music was good. I did not make it into the top 10 because I didn't raise enough funds, I raised about R2600. All together the Debutantes and Squires program raised over R55 000. The money was handed to the charities and the top ten and top three debutantes and squires were named. 

The top 3 debutantes and squires, 3rd place is Rynarhdt Botha (left), 2nd place is Gabby Kater (right) and 1st place is Angie De Agrela (middle).

My dress was a silver mermaid style gown (sleeveless) My boyfriend's suit was a black slim fit with a skinny tie. Most of the dresses were rented in a place in durban called Cinderella's and Colben's suit was rented at a place called Suit Yourself. Both places are situated in Kensington Square in Durban North. My shoes were brought from Zara.

Congratulations to the Top 3 and all the Debs and Squires for raising money for the less fortunate! Lets make next year an even better one!

Book review!

Author:  L.J Smith
Publisher:  Simon and Schuster
Title:  Dark Visions

This book has been my favorite for a few years now, it is written by the author of the very famous, Night World series. The book is about a group of teenagers who have special abilities, who are chosen to go to a school called the Zetes Institute.

The main character, Kaitlyn is delighted to start over at Zetes. In her past she was shunned by the students at her previous school for being different, so she moves to Zetes to, hopefully, get to know some people who know what it feels like to be an outcast.

Although everything is perfect, and she makes some great friends, something evil lurks right around the corner...

The amazing book!

If you love mystery, action and romance I suggest you read this. If you love it I also suggest the Night World series and The Forbidden Game, also by L.J Smith.

Hello again!

Remember on my first post I mentioned that I was in the school production? We'll here's a picture to show you how that turned out...


My group onstage

The production was amazing and I had loads of fun at rehearsals, the long hours of practice were definitely worth it at the end of the day. We had two shows at first, but we squeezed in another because it was so fully booked. We had a show on the Wednesday, Thursday afternoon and Thursday night. Everyone was amazing on the night! Jess, from Thefamousjess.blogspot.com  also joined the play and played the piano!!

The reason I haven't been posting in a while is because I was on Holiday with my family and my boyfriend...


My boy and I in the bush somewhere in the middle of nowhere...


I'll post again soon xx

The most romantic places for a date

The most romantic place for me, personally, would be the beach at sunset, having a picnic with candles lit everywhere. 
Maybe yours is somewhere in Paris, or a fancy restaurant, but whatever your dream destination is, here are some pics of the most romantic places in history.


This place gives off that warm relaxed feeling (a perfect place to fall inlove all over again).



A lake resort for two?


A trip to an exotic island with crystal clear water and pure white beach sand.



 A romantic candle lit dinner on the beach? Yes please!



A fresh summertime picnic in a field full of flowers.


For me, anything near water will be perfect, I am a pices after all.

What looks best for you?
