Suddenly I see

A very happy wacky wednesday to you all...I'm having a great week so far, what about you? I have fantastic news to share with you, but that deserves a post of their own. I can't talk about it right now but I promise you it's gonna be great. Today I'm putting up lyrics to one of my favourite songs from KT Tunstall, many know it from the first episode of Ugly Betty and others know it from the movie.. The Devil wears Prada. Enjoy!

"Suddenly I See"

Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you're trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on her word

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

And she's taller than most
And she's looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from a page in a magazine
Oh she makes me feel like I could be a tower
A big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

Fly

Morning Dolls..it's chooseday today. Let's choose Joy & Happines. Song of the day is Fly by Nicki Minaj Ft. Rihanna...enjoy!


Lyrics to Fly :

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Verse 1: Nicki Minaj]
I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become near when they aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all see blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just summising
Win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Verse 2: Nicki Minaj]
Everybody wanna try to box me in
Suffocating everytime it locks me in
Paint they own pictures than they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can every be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation
I represent an entire generation
I hear the criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
So we become alive in a time of fear
And I ain't got no motherfucking time to spare
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me
But when you go hard your nay's become yay's
Yankee Stadium with Jay's and Kanye's

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Bridge: Nicki Minaj]
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
I came to win
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
I came to win

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Verse 1: Nicki Minaj]
I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become near when they aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all see blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just summising
Win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Verse 2: Nicki Minaj]
Everybody wanna try to box me in
Suffocating everytime it locks me in
Paint they own pictures than they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can every be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation

Get ready for it
Get ready for it
I came to win
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
I came to win

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise

If NO ONE will Listen

Good morning everybody... I hope you had a great weekend! It is once again another monday morning, a brand new week, a fresh start, let's make the most of it. Through out the week I will post lyrics to some of my favourite songs by some of my favourite artists... The first one on the list is If No one will listen By Kelly Clarkson, Enjoy :)

If No One Will Listen"

Maybe no one told you
There is strength in your tears
And so you fight to keep from pouring out
But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul
Do you think there's enough to that you might drown?

[Chorus]
If no one will listen
If you decide to speak
If no one is left
Standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you
For what you really are
I will be here still

No one can tell you where you alone must go
There's no telling what you will find there
And, God, I know the fear that eats away at your bones
Screaming every step, "Just stay here"

[Chorus]

If you find your fists are raw and red from beating yourself down
If your legs have given out under the weight
If you find that you've been settling for a world of gray
So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate

[Chorus x2]

MUSIC THEATRE DANCE LIFE!

Good morning Friends...today is a cold yet beautiful day! We are glad and blessed to be alive, right? right! I can't believe that the end of June is upon us, and worst of all...I haven't blogged in a while! Lol my apologies. It's just that my mind has been all over the place! I've so busy and exhausted all at the same time, but I've been having an amazing time. There comes a time in one's life when everything is going according to plan, a time when all your dreams are being realised! And can I just say what a wonderful feeling it is to see your dreams coming alive. I've been working with two of the most incredible directors on a theatre play i'm currently starring in. Needless to say I have learnt a lot from them. Acting is a lot of hardwork and determination but nothing exceeds that feeling of doing something you were born to do, fulfilling your calling so to say! In the play we do some dancing & singing scenes too, and what that has taught me is focus. Dance teaches you discipline, in the sense that when doing your dance-routines coordination is everything. You find that your hands are doing one thing, while your feet are doing something else, and you have to incorporate that with some singing. Dance also teaches you to be confident, in order to be a good dancer you have to show the audience that you enjoy what you do, hence you will find most dancers standing upright with their chests out and a smile. Once you master all these elements, you are well on your way to becoming a great dancer. And ofcourse this takes hours and hours of rehearsals, tomorrow is saturday and we are spending the whole day in rehearsals in order to prepare for our show on sunday. Nothings beats being sorrounded by artists, there is never a dull moment at rehearsals. My social life is non-existant currently and i think it's going to be like that for a while, but i'm happy with that. This morning I woke up and realised how blessed with amazing people I am. Yesterday, I spent the whole day smilling beacuse my gorgeous friend Ntswaki(Vee) is getting married, and moving to her new home with the Fiance in Krugersdorp. Gosh, I was brimming as we chatted away via email. I'm extremely over-joyed for her as she deserves nothing but the best things that life has to offer. She is the most amazing friend I've ever had and she's always there for me, she's just very sweet and genuine. In life, when you find friends like her, you should hold-on tight ( I love u Vee). Then this morning, while I was still trying to wrap my head around how cold it is...I got a bbm from my beautiful baby sista and business partner Tehillah(Tessy). Chatting to her just made my day, she always manages to make me smile. She just has a very graced spirit and she is love-personified. I thank God for her. One thing I have learnt in this life, is that we create our own family..and these two amazing ladies are my family. I'm truly Blessed to have them in my life. I finally understand the difference between living and existing, and it sure feels great to be living! Have a blessed weekend friends and please keep warm where ever you are.

Colour-Blocking

Hello fashionistas from around the world. I'm so excited about this blog, I have a lot to share with all of you. Anyone who knows me knows that I love fashion, and I'm always on the look out for the "NEXT BIG THING". It is currently getting colder & colder in Johannesburg and a fun way for us to keep warm is to wear colourful clothing, which brings me to the PHENOMENON which is COLOUR-BLOCKING. I don't know who came up with it, but I love it. Gone are the days when we have to match our outfits to the same colour, we can go big! From wearing orange with pink, to red and blue. Anyways here are a few pics to demonstrate what I'm talking about.

That is all from me today
God Bless you
Grace

Joy & Peace!!!!!

Good morning friends...what a lovely(though cold) friday morning. Oh yes...our keyword is FRIDAY!!!! Lol I don't know about you, but knowing that i'm a few hours away from my weekend sure gets me all happy and excited *huge smile*. So I haven't blogged in a few weeks right??well i've been very busy with school and theatre. The reason I'm blogging today is because I just couldn't hold it anymore, I just had to share with everyone how awesome God is and how blessed we all are as his children. I woke up with a big smile this morning at 6am and it hasn't stopped. It takes courage to dream and to go after your dreams, but it is such a rewarding amazing feeling to see them come to life. That awesome moment when you are insync with God's perfect plan and path for your life...words can not describe that feeling of being blessed beyond measure. And that's exactly where my life is. I have so much Joy and Peace. The bible says that the peace that God gives you, the world can not take it away...and it's true, i'm experiencing it right now. Joy unspeakable and full of Glory!!!Yeah? yes.
On that note, have an amazing weekend filled with love. My weekend is going to be filled with theatre, theatre and some more theatre... first i'm rehearsing for a play on saturday, then i'm watching a play on sunday.
