The Ab Fab Life

an ab fab life is one where you survive most days defying your accident prone-ness and leave your bones unbroken, where you eat ice cream and where oprah doesn't talk about something really dumb, but gives away free stuff instead this is my ab fab-ness ;)

i may not exist within the state

it's bad enough that the university system has lost me twice this year and made me feel half like a ghost that has no identity and half like i am free to engage in minor criminal activities. when i went to go and collect my new passport (the old one had reached its date of non existance) and my new id (the old one had a photo that didn't resemble me in the slightest much like Luke's drivers licence where he looks like a suicide bomber) which i had applied for on the 8 DECEMBER 2006, i was told that the fingerprinting identification system could not identify me and i was required to submit a whole new set of fingerprints and hope and pray that i get my passport... sometime... and thus, like many a south african native before me, i am going to say that i, without a doubt, truly hate the department of home affairs. they can bite me.

happy easter!

its because you are a secret agent/spy that springs into action once you've gone to sleep!! how many times have i said this?! the evidence is all there:
"gifted school" french lessons yet you dont remember learning french (they programmed your young mind and french was a nifty cover)
unexplained scary bruises
you are very good at punching

anyway the secret agency that is using you as a crime-fighting weapon is trying to conceal you identity by erasing you from government records.

i only punched you once, ok?! geez ;) and it didn't even bruise!

and its a well known fact that i am an excellent kicker rather than a puncher

i'm with you on the fact that the gifted school i went to could have been an undercover training facility for goverment spies but only because i'm not 100% sure how i got into gifted school anyway ;)

This reminds me of the most hystericl advert I saw on TV the other night! It has this woman walk into the dept of home affairs to discover that it is completely deserted. She looks around and realises that she is the only one there. Someone from behind one of the counters says 'Next please'.

Then, at the bottom of the screen, the following text appears 'Not very likely'. It's for one of those FNB million-a-month account thingys. But it is SO funny!

I LOVE that advert! Home affairs does suck... I hope it works out for you!

Happy easter!

you are unbelievably mysterious, sarah. but how weird and frustrating that your fingerprints don't even match.
