Hey y'all!!

I have been doggin' the bloggin' life! Whenever I sit down to post I get distracted reading... Yes reading! And trashy romance novels at that... the latest one I read was just beyond ridiculous. Just to give you a run down on my latest read basically we have our angel like virgin who looses her virginity in Florence with her muscle flexing, cocaine head, poetry loving Dante professor. Yep this was truly over the top... Maybe I should venture away from this whole romance genre- or find better books?! 

Along with reading I've gone nuts with new music... 

--- HA! I just realised I hit the post button before I had even finished getting through this post. oppsies! ---

.... & I have wasted a stack on mullah on itunes. I have been listening to Wale's new album The Gifted... I'm liking! Although, I've been saying his name as whale not wa-ley ... hehehe One of my friends always says I'm sooo white, once again this proves his point. 

So the music and reading has been occupying my time before another semester of studying starts, which will mean my train rides to work will revolve around reading study notes. I'm dreading getting back to it.. but I know its worth it in the end! 

Anyway I will try to be more organised and post about some fun stuff soon! I'm still reading blogs and prowling around on insta... so make sure to follow me :)

Engrossed in 50 Shades

Hi Prowlers!

Where have I been you ask.... I've been engrossed reading 50 Shades of Grey. Yeah I know, I'm a little late on the bandwagon but one of the guys at work gave me the first book to read (yeah I'm not even going to ask why he bought it haha) and after reading it in light speed, I was onto the second and third.

Okay I'm no literally genius, but the book seems poorly written, corny and predictable. But all that said and done, I totally got hooked in! So easy to read, and I felt compled to find out what happens in the lives of Christan and Ana. Before I started reading I had an impression the book would be kinky as all hell and was really reluctant to read it. But really its a romance - and thats what got me in! I finally finished it on the train this morning, and I couldn't help by smile and slightly awww at the ending (my fellow train travellers must think I'm odd) . Maybe I am a romantic at heart? Who would of thought it! 

Anywho, I hear there is a movie to come out based on the books. This intrigues me as everyone envisages Christan to be their own version of hotness. Which begs the question, Who is your Christan? 

I feel like a need to do like a Oprah's Bookclub debreif on the book haha.. so many questions.... Did you find the books controversial? Did you find them boring? Did you like Christan's character, did you find Christan and Ana's lack of communication a drainer?

Anyway back to the real world for me xxx 

The week that was

Well prowlers, 

I passed my exam! Yippeeee! 

I can't begin to explain what a relief it feels, knowing all the effort I put in. I am the kind of person who has to work their ass off to get through exams, so I'm pretty proud of myself.I have two exams left to get my CPA status - and the thought of getting through the work is daunting, but I feel like I want to give a good crack before the end of the year. Then start a fresh next year with no study on my back.... (ahhh I'm already looking to next year.. one step at a time Kitty)! 

Meanwhile on the work front things have been interesting to say the least. My good buddy, who I sit next to everyday decided to call it a day.. and he finished up on Friday. Honestly it will be good for him, but at the same time, I'm really sad. Probably for my own selfish reasons. We banter all the time, and as much as he can drive me insaine, I will miss having someone that always has my back. Obviously we will remain friends, but I know it won't be the same at work... that said I do work with some awesome people so its not like its the end of the world. Just will take some time to get used to. 

I have had good friends leave work before and I always get emotional about it. I think I know its because the friendship will never be the same. When a colleuge / friend moves on, do you to get the waterworks?

Talking about crying, the feminist at work says showing my emotions at work i.e. crying means I won't move up the corporate ladder. She makes me laugh, but I wonder if she has a point.

Friday we had the final farewell for my workbuddy followed by a games night with the work social club. We were all split into teams, ours being named Kitty's litter haha... (well I find it funny/funny-lame even if you don't :P ) We bet our arch nemesis mwahahaha ..but I can honestly say the games did not interest me in the slightest, but the drinking sure did haha. After the games I got changed into my party dress, and we strutted to Charlie's Bar along Hardware Lane. I had never been there before, probably a good place to start the night with a few drinks .. and yum cocktails. Unfortunately I piked it early just after 9... I knew I had to take the train home and I didn't want to be stonkered and on the train at midnight. Scary and stupid... so probably made the right decision -- I really have to stay in the city for these drinking events. Was a fun night though! 

The rest of the weekend was pretty slow for me... My brother came down to visit. And I did manage to hit the shops, but left empty handed apart from Hair products and the MAC Lipgloss. Its not as glitterly as I would of liked... there are a couple more glosses I want to waste my money on... I think I will just have to succumb to the temptation to find a new favourite - Smashbox, Dior and Chanel are on the list of must tries. I did order my ever reliable Racy Raspberry super Lustrous Revlon lipgloss today, so hopefully that comes soon. I can hardly remember the gloss on ... hope its as good as I have hyped it up to be in my head haha 

MAC Lustreglass = $35

This picture shows you nothing except up my nose and that its kinda glossy... 

I have booked a hair cut and colour for next week... my ends feel a bit on the dodgy side, and my hair is kinda looking top heavy. I am impressed at how long its grown... that I am happy about! 

Ahhh I love a slefie hahaha
