Mister, you have a wild imagination

How cool are these pictures? They're by Turkish photographer, Murat Suyur (it's quite amazing what you can find on the interwebs when you are avoiding doing something).  I'm tempted to take a bite out of my keyboard to see if it's actually chocolate in disguise.

Here's the link to his website if you would like to see some more.

Boring weekend. Nice food.

As far as weekends go, this one has to have been one of the dullest. I've gone into a studying-induced hibernation and may only make an appearance after exams (I say 'may' because Halloween is around the corner and I'll use any excuse to dress up). At least delicious homemade food made this weekend a little bit better! This is a grilled eggplant, zucchini, haloumi and basil pesto stack. I'm not going to post the recipe because it's pretty easy to make. Just grill everything, stack 'em and voilà!

Something to do

Curious Cat

Simone is now Zinzi.

Named after the coolest literary heroine- Zinzi December (from Zoo City).

Just wasn't a Simone. 

It happens.

She loves chasing the cursor on the computer. 

Cute kid.

Holiday in pictures

I had a week off varsity, which was rather short but sweet. And busy. I went to the Wrestlerish album launch and the SA Fashion Week Pop Up Shop, celebrated my dad's birthday with my big fat Greek family, interned at the Pretoria News, saw One Day with Bridget, went to Amy's farm (sadly, no pictures) and saw the one and only Coldplay. No studying was done, which will make this week quite an interesting one. Let's do it!

Can Michelle pull off Marilyn?

Michelle Williams is portraying Marilyn Monroe in My Week With Marilyn. There's no denying that she's beautiful but I'm a little sceptical as to whether she can be a sultry sex symbol like Marilyn was. I'm really looking forward to this film though, what with  Judie Dench, Emma Watson and Dominic Cooper completing the cast. Here's the trailer in the meantime!





Designing up a Storm

Storm Thorgerson is a graphic design god. Recognize these album covers? All his ingenious work, kids. He recently designed the cover of local band machineri's debut album. They have effectively joined a list of some of rock's upper crust. Nice, very nice.
