Nando's FIFA Ads

If I ever have to work in marketing...I want to work with the brain behind these adverts. He's pure genius whoever he is, and it would be a serious shame not to share this with the world.

Besides. You might learn a thing or two about South Africa while you're at it. :)

So totally politically incorrect. But hilarious nonetheless. ;)

A play on Jacob Zuma's many wives. He has three.

"No no sisi. On your head!"

Examination Freedom

So exams are finally done and out of the way. Now all that's left for me to do is attempt to enjoy the holidays.


Not.


I pretty much killed my right hand on the 16th of June by writing 5 essays and then 3 page long 'short' answers. Reminds me of lit and history on the same day all over again somehow.


Holidays have been fantastic so far though. Plenty of post-exam celebration, but I should probably knuckle down and save if I want to go anywhere at all. :)
In the meantime, some pics of what has already passed through...



火锅 or Steamboat with Chia Hsin at the Jade Palace. In the most awesome weather to be having it in. :)









蛋挞 or egg tart with the Chinese group at Dragon Palace. The BEST egg tarts I've ever had in Perth.






Kings Park, Post-Exam Picnic

South Africa vs Mexico


It was worth an attempt. South Africa didn't win. But certainly, they defied most of our expectations. Drawing with Mexico was better than a lot of people expected, and just proves that Africa can do it if they believe. That last attempt at a goal was a heart breaking affair. And Mexico's goal could have been avoided in all honesty, if Mokoena had remembered his place was to defend the goal, not run after the ball to spot it!

On to the next one. South Africa had better beat the pulp out of France!

Shakira - Waka Waka | Official Video | World Cup South Africa 2010

Okay. I am officially obsessed.
But I'm so proud of South Africa. Finally the world gets to see the beauty of the country I can proudly say I belong to. (whether it wants me or not. =p)

It reminds me of everything African. From my favourite South African band (Freshly Ground) right down to the dancing. I was a bit confused over the initial choice of Shakira, but I can see now why they chose her. She's literally oozing energy.

Now I'm only confused over the ending bit of the video, regarding why I can spot a Chinese lion in the background!


Who're you supporting? I'm going Bafana Bafana all the way! (unless they lose, then I'm rooting Brazil. :D)
