August update

Hey peeps...

Well Varsity is starting to get up to speed again... Hectic times!!! And officially 3 and a bit months left till honours is OVER!!! and six years of studying are done and dusted!!! and there is still soooo much that I wanna learn... Martha my house cleaner lady is now teaching me Zulu... so stoked and Steve is teaching me Italian!!! So hopefully by the end of next year I will be able to kinda speak four languages... Afrikaans still has to be worked on hugely... and you think my Afrikaans friends would be teaching me... LOL!!!

So what is happening next year.... Well I unfortunately did not get into Masters which kinda sux but I always knew it would be a tough one and psychology is not an easy career path to follow (or get into at least)... So at the moment I m exploring options for next year and will keep you posted as to what my plans are!!!

Steve and I are doing fantastically... heading to towards a year and a half... quite cool... Been spoiled rotten lately... Full body Swedish massage.... YEAH BABY!!!! I have the most amazing man in the world!!!

Haven't seen the folks in a while.. missing them stax.. They are jolling hard its tough to keep up these days!!! Hopefully get to see them soon!!! Roy is doing well... and we have a new flat mate.. Alex.. a durbanite... working with Roy!!! So we back to three.. Feels like home again... Messy boys, untidy kitchen, and shoes everywhere... hehehehehe... just kidding boys!!!

talking about) are doing well. and things seem to be running quite smoothly!! We are constantly looking for new activities that have life skills embedded in them so feel free to give us some ideas.. preferably not expensive ideas.. The girls we are working with in Sunnyside (read a few blog posts down if you not sure what I'mhehehe...

My grandparents - I love you so much and hope you are getting better... thinking of you all loads.... No more hospitals... okay!!!! mwah!!!

Sian's World.... blog vol. 1

Hi Hi...

Sian's world has been a busy place lately.. so sorry about not having written for a LONG time...

Honours is going well been pretty busy but good... waiting for my first semester results... hold thumbs!!! Can you believe its more than half way through the year!! its insane... this year is flying!!!

Anywho... been applying for masters... applying at a few places.. more holding thumbs PLEASE - that's a biggie... and the final stretch to be a shrink!!! Problem is they only choose about 5 - 9 people each year at each university and have about 400 odd applicants.. first round is paper selection, writing essays etc... if they like that you get invited for the first round of interviews, then group interviews and then a panel interview... each time they cut the numbers down... EEEECCCKKKK!!! If I make it through all of that its 2 academic years (2nd year is a thesis) and then a year of intern and a year of community service... only 4 years to go... and then Iv had more than enough for a while!!! 10 years later!!! hehehe...

Other than graft, I am volunteering here and there - getting a bit of experience in the field... counselling etc... pretty cool... I JUST WANNA BE A SHRINKIE!!! baby steps... We are gonna start working at a shelter for girls, most of which were sold into the sex and drug trade by their folks. But are now out of all of that and staying in this shelter, going to school and getting looked after a bit better... really sad to hear of such huge abuse!!! but will be interesting work and hopefully will be beneficial to the girls - even if just slightly!! they also have a baby drop off, where moms that don't want their babies can put them into a baby drop (whole in a wall) and the babies are picked up on the other side... not sure how often this happens... Don't think too often although it's quite sad!!

On a lighter side!!

so what is ur news??? tell me tell me!!!

Steve is fantastic... He is absolutely devine... mwah!!! He made this blog for me.. pretty cool!!! so every now and then just have a little look here and you can be updated on Sian's world... how cool... coz I know u all want to!!! I also think you can maybe register it to your email, then each time a post is uploaded you will get an email... Steve is that right?? and how do u do that??? (check for Steve's reply)!!! Probably be on in about an hour... hehe... such an Internet junkie!!!

Trying to get down to South Coast in the next 2 weeks... whoop whoop... even though I missed the anniversary of the tearing of my ligaments at the Mr Price Pro - hope there was a moment and a little tear for me... hehe.. and I'm missing the Durban July.. Will be awesome to see everyone again... not sure I'm gonna recognise the place after the floods!! sounds like it was pretty hectic!!!

Have hardly seen anyone.. sorry guys will make it up to you next year!!! hehe!!! but I love you all.. and I miss you all!!!

anyway... will be in touch soon!!!

Lots of love
