Project Management

Growing up I have been introduced to Project management, through the work that I started by doing. when I was at university I did not know that there was a qualification that focused mainly on Project management. Here I was with my passion for, studying for a science degree in Nutrition. Don't get me wrong, I was fortunate enough to go to a very good girls school that offered us career guidance as well as counselling. I went through aptitude tests, personality tests etc, to try and figure out the route I should take. Luckily enough I had chosen the correct subjects , that could get me into any field of science that I wanted. My first choice being chemical engineering I decided to go with my second choice, which was more driven by passion, nutrition. the studies were great , I learnt a lot and gained more confidence in this field.

the work I started by doing was not related to nutrition but it had some aspects of it, but it was challenging!. there were time frames, deliverable and reports that had to generated. i had to learn fast, and I found myself enjoying the work. Working towards a purpose, a goal, a Milestone. I then started wondering, what could I do to help me understand this field better? I did my research and found a perfect course, a diploma in Project management! Winner. I was happy, from the beginning till the end. I had found my destiny!

Why do I say that, you may ask. Well here is the deal, I am a Capricorn lady. now if you have never come across a Capricorn lady or Man, I suggest you read up on them a bit. I am a strict individual, I have a great sense of urgency, I am focused and I like to see results. In everything. all aspects of life. Personal or Professionally. Give me a meaningful task, and I will run with it until it is thoroughly completed. Yes that's me in a nutshell. So are you surprised that i love this Project management field? I hope not. Lol.

I plan to learn more in this field , and i wish that during the time in high school when we were busy choosing our careers, something or someone could have just picked up my personality and figured that I would do great in this field. Oh well, we can't cry over that now but only be grateful that for as long as I am still alive there is a great amount of possibilities. and that wakes me up every morning, keeps me alive!

One day, I will be a great Project Manager for a great project that will change peoples lives. And that my friend is my utmost wish.

Happy Friday,

Salute <3

Weekend Blues...

The weekend is here!!.....yey! ok What next? I have no plans, nor do i have energy to cook up any. So I get a bbm from my friend asking to meet up for drinks afterwork, Im like well there comes a plan. Bring it on. She has to take a train from Centurion and im leaving from Midrand. Sandton is on my way home(no pun intended)  So its 4:30 and knock off time. Ibgrab my bags abd head to my car. Thep weather is gettung a bit gloomy, it drizzles for a bit but i continue driving. Before i take the Grayston off ramp i ask my friend how far she is, and oops she is still by the offuce since her lift to take her to the station is stuck in traffic.

A little worrying this, because im very clode to entering the Sandtin city parkjng lot. No i did not stop to text my friend, i know, bad driving manners. i am by tge parking lot entrance now and i have an option of going in or just heafing straight home. I get a text from my friend saying i mustnt go into sandton because it doesnt look like she will make it. I am a little disappointed, but i continue to fjnd parking. That proves to ve a difficult for a while abd i get slightly irritated. I park eventually and head to Woolies, there is currentky a sale and si I might find somethung to wear one day. I head straight there, whew tons of variety and so the browse begins. Until i get tired and all clogged up, i am not feeling well and my chest is acting up. I become uncomfortable and leave the shop. Im hungry too!! Goodness could my friday get any better. I spot Mcdonalds and head there for a Spicy cajun meal.

My chest! i need some meds and Clicks pharnarcy is right by the exit. i get assistance from a friendly pharmarcist, pay  for my meds and head to the parking lot. I spot an old school girl, greet her chat a bit and say my goodbyes. i drive off, hand in my fries packet, im starved. Driving and eating , yeah i love that. Guilty pleassure. two bites of the burger and i am Not convinced! You would think only great qulity came from Sandton, well i guess Not.

get home, burger half eaten, fries almost finished. Hobo living this iv swear. With not much to do i change into my pjs, Tv never disapooints. Line up: #Generations, #Tempy Pushas, #LiveAmp.....that should keep me going, right?

oh yes I do watch SABC shows, taboo as it may seem to others. I pay my Dstv and Tv license subscriptions.

Dosed off after my tv shows, with bbm chats in between from my friends.

and so my weekend goes....

Mr, she may Not be into you afterall...

I am a bit tired of being told of what signs to look out for, to determine if the guy likes you or not. Yawn!
well i think as wonen we also have have a say in determining who we would like to be into us or not.Books have been written, websites created, movies made and songs sung advising women with all sorts of warnings. Beyonce in her last album told the worl Girls Run The World! And i couldnt agree more.

Here is my point men are confused when it comes to women, they have these pictueres in their heads about the type of women they would die to meet. When they do happen to meet them , they then realize they have no game plan whatsoever. The wake up call is Dude! She may be your dream girl, but are You her dream guy? I am most certain a lot of guys never ask themselves this question. Or they never take the initiative to find out if they are on the right track or not.

Dont get me wrong I am for good relationships and so on, but people must show some dedication. And so I have a few points that I would like our fellow brothers to consider when  going after a girl, these are merely signs that she is NOT into you, and you must back off and not waste anymore of your time and other resources.

Signs that She is Not That Into You:

1. If she doesnt or never returns your missed calls
2. if she never initiates a conversation with you, via calls, or messages
3. if she only calls you when she needs help, 
4. if she never asks about your family, where you come from etc
5. if she never initiates any outing or activity for the both of you.

Ponder on these gentlemen, and give me feedback. I am no relstionship guru, but i belive there are guys out there who need a wake up call, because they may not have as much game as they thought they had 5 or 10 years ago.

Women have power over who they want, so know when to stop pursuing her.

Excuses, oh so unpleasant

At the age of 30 that i am in, certain things just make no sense. Here i am referring to conversations i hold with adults my age or older. Today i will only make reference to the frogs i meet claiming to like me and wanting to date me.

Question is what their actions say? Ok we are not there today. This lame excuse i have heard many times since the beginning of 2013! I didnt think we would still be hearing such lines from grown men in the 21st century. 'I am busy/ was busy' Very lame. I asked this one frog what he meant by that line when he was telling me why he had not called for a whole week and weekend, was he running the country? Managing offshore accounts? CEO for multiple companies? No, I thought not. He also laughed at his pathetic excuse and agreed that I was making sense. If you claim to like someone, your actions should support your spoken word.  Unfortunately he will not be be getting any chance with me, seeing that he started on a bad slate already.

I cannot and will not accept mediocrity! Grown ups should behave like grown ups. If you say you will do something, do it! If you cant, say so. If you tolerate this I can assure you that your children will be next!

Watch out guys, clean up your act and communicate better. Believe me you will begin to see wonders.

Salute!  ♥

Body talk

I woke up with a splitting headache today, now that never or hardly ever happens to me. i continued with h my usual routine, shower, eat , find something to wear etc. .after all this the headache persisted. I le gft the house to come to Rosebank, as i had a few things to do here. After sending my twin's gift via courier services i then decided to sit at Ninos. Did some work kn my tablet, orderd a cup of five roses with soya milk and drank two cups. Now usually when i feel heavy and tired this tea revives me, oh no not today. 

I had to then resort to taking a pain killer, because i saw that if i didnt my head would crack!!...it hit me right there when a thought crossedbmy mind, i am now 30 and clearly my body will be slower in reacting to remedies such as a cup of tea to cure a headache.

i feel better now having taken a pain tablet. I am even surprised myself tobbe admitting to such. All i can say is let us appreciate our lives, maintain a healthy lifestyle and learn to listen to our bodies when they cry out to us and respond accordingly.

i hope i have learnt something from this and hopefully i can have the ability to help someone in future who finds themselves in my situation.

salute! :
