Funky Chicken.

Camp was AWESOME. Hands down, the best thing I have done all year.

I don't actually have time to blog about it (as, you know, skipping a whole week of uni means I have a fair bit to catch up on).

But I just needed to point that out.

Along with the fact that musicians are easily the best people on earth.

:D

There are photos on my MySpace. You should check 'em out. Yep. Fo' sure.

Don't Cry For Me Argentina (or Kids of Springfield, depending on what floats your boat)

Hey bloggerbimbies.

So, it is my sad, sad duty to inform you that I won't be online this week. Tragic, I know. Yes, I realise it impacts upon each of your lives ever so much.

Yes, I'm being sarcastic, don't worry, I'm not that self-centered.

But still, I thought I could still blog about it. You see, from tomorrow till Thursday night, I'm going to Jamberoo Valley Lodge to be a music tutor for Junior Music camp (yes, I am intentionally calling it "music camp" as opposed to "band camp" for very, very obvious reasons. And before you ask, yes, there will be flutes, no, I will not be playing them). It sounds like fun, I'm rather excited. :) I mean, not ONLY am I getting a whole week off uni (at the worst possible time, it's true, but still), but I'll also be spending a week playing music for a few hours each day, then bludging and swimming and having fun for the rest of the time, and getting the opportunity to meet some new (and hopefully, good) people and do something I actually enjoy. So I'm hoping it'll be fun times ahead. Of course, it could always turn out to be super crap (like almost any other camp I've been on to date), but what the hey, I'd rather be optimistic right now.

Anyways. Have a good week everyone, and if you're really nice (read: actually interested), I may blog about the experience. (Heh. I've never actually HAD something non-stupid to blog about before, haha.)

Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Why it's important to brush your teeth twice a day.

So this is the next topic I have been ordered to write about. But seriously, I can sum up the reasons for this in three simple pictures...







Um, ew.

That made me feel sick. I couldn't even bring myself to click on the image link to get the full size pictures. The small ones were bad enough. In fact, I refuse to scroll up and look at those pictures again.

Anyway. THAT is why you should brush your teeth daily. Besides, it's really not that difficult. I'll even give you a how-to guide, all thanks to Sipho, Thandi, Jan, Marieke and the naughty, inappropriate, touchy-feely, toothbrush-groping Zodwa.

See that? Easy. Sure, the mother of those children must have really slept around with many different men of different races around the world, but who cares, those children have excellent dental habits. (Or maybe the parents were just really fond of adoption.)

So basically, unless you:
  • Have a desire to look like one of those clowns you throw balls into at fairs
  • Enjoy the fragrant aroma of garbage-dump-esque proportions every time you open your mouth
  • Have a soft spot for the colour parchment. In your mouth
  • Like playing "whack the beaver", where the gaps in your teeth are beaver holes and your tongue is the beaver
  • Enjoy growing plants of the not-so-strictly-edible variety in your mouth
  • Aspire to have no friends. Or family. Or work colleagues. Or acquaintances
  • Aspire to end up in a blog like this someday
BRUSH YOUR GODDAMN TEETH.

Thank you.
