Winter is here

Ek is seker meeste van julle het opgelet hoe baie keer hiérdie frase gebruik was in die premiere van Game of Thrones se sewende seisoen. Die lang wag is uiteindelik verby, en nou is dit darem net een week wat ons as die kykers moet wag vir elke nuwe episode. Ek dink Suid-Afrikaners kan hulself beter vereenselwig met “winter is here” as die noordelike halfrond se kykers. Ons was selfs verras met…

Formal: make it, break it or fake it

Ek wonder baie keer of die dames weet dat die kêrels net soveel moeite insit vir die dinee as hulle (oukei, nou nie heeltemal nie, maar tog meer as wat hulle dink). Ek wil wegval om te begin met die kleredrag – dit is die grootste ding. Baie keer stem die ou in om iets aan te trek wat die dame se rok (of ander uitrusting) sal komplimenteer. Sommiges trek wel aan net wat hulle wil. Nietemin, moet…

WhatsApp-web

Ek het aan die begin van hierdie jaar ‘n paar lukrake gedagtes met ‘n “status” op Facebook gedeel waaronder WhatsApp-web een van die dinge is wat gelys was. Ek vertel nou die dag weer vir iemand daarvan en ek was nogal verbaas dat sy nog nie daarvan geweet het nie. Nietemin, is hier nou ‘n herinnering om jou lewe aansienlik te vergemaklik. Eerstens: wat is WhatsApp-web? Mens sal dink die app is…

Must watch series: GoT and TBBT

Recently, I don’t really have a lot of time to waste but a man needs time just to blow off some steam and what better way to do it than to watch some series. Yeah, movies are great, but the suspense series create by having to wait a week for the next episode is what make them so exciting. I would therefore like to share two of the series I consider a must watch. First of all, nothing else than…

Excuse me, while I procrastinate

A while ago I walked into one of the buildings on campus, one where the graphic design students have most of their classes. I saw a poster on the wall with three characters on them… and it said, “Excuse me while I procrastinate”. At first I tried to figure out what do you want to be excused from? Perhaps the conversation while you’re going on Facebook or Instagram. Then, as the days went on and I…

From town to town

On the road again People often ask me, “So, where do you live?” Now, to answer them, is quite difficult. The thing with varsity students is that, after they have been studying for a while, some of them feel that the city where they’re studying is where they are actually living, but if someone from your own varsity asks you where you live they obviously refer to your hometown. It is sometimes best…

Christmas: 3 things not to buy

I can’t imagine that it is that time of the year again. December has come too quickly, I just wish there were a few more weeks in this year so that I can do the things I didn’t do while I was busy with my studies – now that I have a holiday (kind of). You will probably ask yourself why on earth would this man still like this year to be a bit longer while others are just wishing for the new year…

Cookies, please!

As one would’ve been able to see from my previous post, I really like coffee. Sometimes one wants something to enjoy with your coffee and what would be better than cookies or rusks. The word cookie, as we know it, originates from the Dutch word “koekje” also known as “koekie” in Afrikaans. In Afrikaans “koekie” is the diminutive form of the word “koek” which is cake in English – luckily the…

Black Coffee

Black coffee may be something that most Europeans (and a lot of other people) enjoy. But back here in South Africa most people drink instant coffee which doesn’t taste as good if you do not add milk and sugar. I grew up in a family where coffee is something we drink everyday. My father drinks up to twelve cups of coffee a day. Following his example I started to drink coffee when I was 10 years…

The Nature of Instagram

Yesterday was an eventful day. To start off, I listened to first year students doing their orals on various topics. One of those topics was Social Media and the impact it has on the way you perceive yourself. It was an interesting topic and one student even asked me if I have been a victim of Social Media, implying that I looked at myself differently (maybe even despising the way I look)…
