Graduation Weekend,good times!

So the festivities are over,back to reality.
The graduation ceremony wasnt as bad as I'd thought it would be,kept myself entertained during the boring parts by chatting with a friend of mine.After the ceremony had lunch with the parents,my sister,cousins and my uncle at Primi-best place for pasta!sigh, i could do wit some pasta right about now....
In the evening I had dinner with some friends at News Cafe,I didnt actually eat though,I got a little too carried away taking photo's and drinking so by the time we needed to order I was waaaaay too tipsy to eat,would've probably ended up throwing up.
Afterwards we went to a friends house for poker.I was too exhausted to join in though and went home after an hour or so.I met my ex boyfriend too,this world is waaay too small!!!Turns out he knows my male friends from high school.He's the same though,hasn't changed a bit.Talks the same,same height,same accent and I bet he kisses the same too (his awful kissing was the reason I dumped him,lol!)
Twas nice to see my mummy again,she was so happy she baked 3 cakes for me and my cousins.Its only Thursday and 2 of those cakes are practically finished,lol,my mummies a beast in the kitchen!She also made some super nice chicken which had all of us asking for her recipe.When Im brave enough Ill try replicating her chicken.
So all in all it was a good weekend,had fun.
Gotta go do some work now,mwah!

Im a b*&%$# in the morning....

Im going crazy,have been for the past few days.
Im panicking about everything and anything and worrying at the same time,disgusting combination!Ive been driving Bk up the wall with my endless pouting and sulking and as always Im wondering how he hasn't gone mad himself.Instead of telling me to get lost he's called every night and tried to make me feel better.*blush* Lucky me.
So why am I worried? Im graduating this weekend,my research paper was accepted for the research conference thingy at University which means I have to find funds to attend the conference,prepare for the presentation and prepare a short biography.My graduation has created humungous headaches for me. The shoes my cousin sent aren't here yet and might not get here in time because there was a postal strike in the UK plus she fears the shoe might be too small.Go figure,that would just be friggin fantastic.
I spent the better part of the week running around looking for a dinner dress and again I am reminded why it sucks to be in Africa!!!!Lots of casual clothes here but nothing for special occassions,unless your aim is to look like a beauty pagent contestant.
So I decided ufck it,Ill ho it out (shout out to Amber Rose!) this time and bought a long top that shall serve as my dress for the night,lol,Im shameless!But Ill do it with self respect,I will make sure I dont bend over or sit without my legs being crossed.See?Self respect!
My biggest problem though is my amazingly over inflated expectations.In my head this weekend is supposed to be super duper fantastic! At first I wasn't excited but then I let myself get excited and now Im just worried my expectations won't be met and so far thats the way things seem to be headed.crap! Ah well,Ill find other reasons to celebrate in my life so Ill just try and make the most of it.

[This totally has nothing to do with the post but my cousin keeps talking to me tho I have headphones on and Im clearly busy typing somethin....weird.I say "hmmm" or nod every now and then,lmao!Im evil]
