My sister's getting married.

It's been so long since my last post and that is because of the immense workload  at school at the moment. It's almost like my teachers have gone assignment crazy or something! But I guess that's what you get when you try and ram a year's course into six months. Thankfully, we are on a  two week break and I'm off to London in a few days to spend time with  family and friends. In particular, my youngest sister who is getting married next week Saturday.We are all breathing a sigh of relief as the recent 'volcanic ash' issue is finally getting alot better. So family and friends can fly in for the wedding.
I think I finally found something to wear to the said wedding. All thanks to my friend Abs who searched high and wide for the perfect dress - in the designated colour, which was coral. The dress in question is gorgeous but kind of revealing. So we are mentally preparing ourselves for the backlash that is sure to follow from the more conservative guests.  Most likely including my parents. Our plan is to balme it all on the bride. Genius, don't you think?
Then again I have lost so much weight that I doubt there will be any curves on show. My mum is already freaked out that my landlord and fellow housemate is male (she thinks there's something fishy going on and can't seem to get round the idea that things are different now from her time when it was an absolute taboo), she will totally lose her mind when she sees how skinny I've gotten. Africans don't do skinny, you see. 
I can't wait to see a certain young man while I'm in good ol' Blighty. Before you get all excited, I am talking about my Godson whom I am yet to meet. He is the cutest little boy ever (every mother says that right?) This is the first time I've been made Godmother and I am so excited and deeply honoured.

Should be an interesting week.

Bisous!
