Getting My Ducks in a Row




I'm a mess! Well no, not entirely. I'm just slightly how you say disorganized *gnashes teeth* 

I stay looking at those people who seem to have their life in order wondering "HOW???" how do you manage to just keep everything in check and appear to float through life effortlessly??


So today, I got up bright and early feeling good and motivated and decided "well I ought to get myself together"... but how? sat there thinking for a minute, got distracted and found myself on social media, scrolling through posts and pictures when I saw something about setting goals and sticking to them.
Now lemme tell y'all, thinking about doing something and actually doing it... eish... not the easiest thing to do for most of us. But I decided I should and I will. So I went to my phone's app store, got me some apps to help me with that, a planner with goals set to help me keep track of things

First thing to get in order... SCHOOL!!!! aaarrgghhh this year has been the worst. I've been lazy, off-balance, unfocused and really just not myself. And it's reflected in my academic performance 
That needs to change, so first goal, find motivation. Go hard with the books, less class skipping I need to get this degree with no hitches.
Then health and fitness.... I keep losing weight and that's not healthy


So I'm going to have to eat better and keep at it. That's what I currently weigh   I fluctuate between 50 -54  so i'll see if i can gain 10 kilos (I know... it's a lot!). Oooh and water too, I have such trouble staying hydrated so I'm going to start off with 1.5 litres a day and work my way up to 2
litres and 2.5 problem with that is the amount of times you have to pee in a day especially if you're out and about in town or any place that's not home or school because the trouble with public toilets lol there's not enough tissue, disinfectant or sanitizer in the world to make them comfortable enough to use
Got myself a morning workout app too, I'm so unfit. I get breathless from spreading my bed, it's that serious and even disappointing I let it go that far so Zam-zam is definitely getting herself together y'all (yes, I refer to myself in 3rd person)


Fingers crossed i'll be able to stick to my goals and set up new ones eventually......... Wish me luck!

D.I.Y.: Vest to Bodysuit

Hey! It's been a minute.... yes, a really long minute 🙈 I know. But I'm back!! Woop woop. The festive season is upon us and we all want to look good because why not?? So I'm here to help y'all look good on a budget so you can have enough money left over to go out and celebrate.... you're welcome, you know I gatchu *insert high five here*. So, last year I had written an article on thrifting, or salaula if you may, on the Trendition-Z page, follow the link >  HERE  < . I gave a few tips on how to go about it so you will definitely find it useful. (Read it!!) A while ago, I happened to find myself in DAPP because they had clothes going at K8... K8!!! How could I walk past that?? So I got the vest and knit sweater in the thumbnail picture above for K8 each and felt pretty good about my purchase. Problem is, the vest was way too long as you see above. Ended up looking like a really short dress so it was idly sitting in the closet until I got a light bulb m...

Death's Selective Mourners

Hey y'all.... so yesterday the 4th of April there was a bus accident in which it is reported about 6 people died. Tragic. Especially for the families of the deceased. But... all over social media I only kept seeing condolences to one family. The one whose daughter was a bride to be. Of course absolutely nothing wrong with issuing out condolences. Only problem is this tendency to only feel remorse for and talk about the "celebrity". I'll explain. If there are 2 or 3 people in a vehicle and of those people one of them happens to be a famous person and then an accident occurs, the only person or person's family that will receive tons of love, remorse and have posts of condolences sent their way is that of the famous person. And this really bothers me because do the lives of the other victims not matter and go unnoticed because they were unknowns? No. Every life matters and cannot be measured or valued by one's level of popularity or wealth. So back to yes...

Look for Less with DIY

So.... I'm into arts and crafts, DIY... anything I can do by myself I don't like to spend money on. From changing a light bulb to fixing a plug or socket to hammering something together, fixing a door handle, painting, braiding my hair all the way to the clothes I wear. I prefer to do things on my own from the phrase/saying: "If you want something done right do it yourself"  That's my motto. I prefer to be self sufficient and encourage others to do the same because there is nothing I hate more than having to be stranded and depend on someone else to come through only to disappoint me.  But don't get me wrong, where I'm unable to, I'm quick to ask for help. So school was forcibly/prematurely closed so i've been bored outta my mind.  But then I thought "hmm i like clothes. Why don't I get a little creative to pass the time" and got to it. Yesterday I came up with this little number Made the crop top out of a p...
