Birthday Checklist
1 year wiser
15kg lighter
35 days sober
:)
I'm doing ok.
It's been quite a year, but I'm definately in a better place emotionally, physically and mentally than I was a year ago. Thanks to everyone who helped me get here, and I thank God for all my wins.

Second Hand Book Trawl...
Also in the line of presents... anything along these lines in the 2nd hand book store
Birthday & Christmas - Typo Eye Candy
I love TYPO... http://shop.cottonon.com/typoshop/
With my birthday days away, and Christmas around the corner, my mom has practically begged me to do a wish list. I went online to Typo and picked out some cute goodies that I'd LOVE to own.
Basically falls under anything with an owl on it, coffee, water, notes, vintage storage...

30 going on 13....
Dear almost 13 years old Sharona
You are one gorgeous skinny bitch and you'll stay that way till you go to Varsity. Might I suggest that the minute you write your last matric exam, you go out and have a pizza and a cider. These should be your last ever. If you do not heed my warning, you will get fat and moody. Also, stop wearing baggy t-shirts, you're so thin!
Don't drive mom and dad on the night of 28 June 2002, just don't. ok? You will meet a boy soon after that date... don't date him. He is weird and creepy and probably the worst person you will ever meet in your life.
Don't get a job selling printer cartridges over the phone, those people are weird and it will not be worth it.
When you go to high school, don't do Xhosa in std 7, do Art instead. Do art till matric, you really don't need Physics, seriously, dude, do Art.
When you finish matric, don't go waitress with Claire. She will leave that place soon and you'll be stuck earning next to nothing for the next two and a half years.
Don't settle. You are beautiful and funny. Go study journalism.
Love
Your almost 31 year old self
PS: Maybe ignore my advice, I did all that stuff and turned into me
PPS: you'll never stop cutting your legs when you shave them, you're clumsy
PPPS: Ditto when it come to falling over

"She's flirty, turned thirty. Ain't that the age a girl gets really dirty?"
This is me embracing 30.... loved this Scouting For Girls song for ages, and secretly was waiting till I could be "dirty thirty"... however, I did forget about this song until I heard it yesterday morning while walking - viva ancient iPod :)
Let's get this frikken birthday started!!! Whoop whoop!

Birthday Lust List....
You know when people ask you what you want for your birthday, and you squeak "you don't have to get me a present...." - yeah, I don't know how that feel either!
I've commissioned a necklace from a great designer and new friend - which I probably will only receive after my birthday. I asked her to incorporate quite a few elements, so it's not a simple piece, and it is going to pretty darn special - so I've pretty much let people know that I would welcome contributions... ok so all that doesn't stop me ogling stuff online and in store.
I want this tray, I will have it...
I want a really nice beach towel... not sure which one though, saw a very expensive cotton one at Edgars the other day.... this is something I've bought for a few people as a present before, yet, I am still using the free towel that my Mom got from her days in Tupperware in the late 80s....
A decent teapot is also something I've wanted for a while, but I can be quite a difficult thing to buy for someone else... and it seriously cannot be dribbley... I have a lovely teapot that I handpainted in an Alice In Wonderland theme... but it dribbles like crazy....
A selection of wild coloured acrylic paints wouldn't go unused...
Lately with all my walking I've been wanting a pedometer... now see they that they aren't that expensive!
and of course:
wine
books
onion marmalade
canvasses
posh teas
plants (but maybe once I've moved)
....a new car
love and kisses
