Feels so weird to be sitting down to write. Haven't written anything on this blog for over 3months! Actually I don't think I've sat down to write anything in a while! Wow it really has been some time since I've been on this blog. No particular reason for this besides laziness, de-motivation etc etc (well for me anyway, Rox has been threatening to kick my ass if I don't get it together, so she will be glad I'm doing this). I'm glad I've actually, finally decided to do something about the emptiness that was becoming, no more fucking 'Curve'.
HAPPY NEW YEAR guys! The past few months have been SOMETHING ELSE. That is the best way to put it. In the past 3months I have, celebrated Christmas, cried, lost friends, gained friends, laughed, decided what I want to spend the rest of my life doing (partially-decided), watched 'STAND BY ME' for the first time, had braids for the first time in 7 years, gained myself a stalker, and learnt how to float (don't ask)....basically, I've done a lot of things recently, might not be as exciting as it sounds BUT one thing that I am incredibly happy I got the opportunity to do was go to South Africa! I'll do a post about that separately because I can predict it's going to be at least 3 pages long and it's 2:07am so probably not the best time to be going into extreme detail. However, I will say this, I had such an amazing time that coming back to London has crushed my soul. Honestly. It has also motivated me to work as hard as I can so I can stop wasting my time in this never-ending cycle that is London.
We spent the New Year in SA so I didn't get to spend time with my family and other friends over here, then I got back on the 12th (?) so I haven't even had the chance to write any resolutions to come into 2012 with. That's another completely different subject. Resolutions. I have none this year, only a promise to myself. To make myself proud of me. I think that subs a lot of things even though it might sound very cliché and basic, I'm happy with it.
For me this is a year for me to realise who I really am. What I want from life, and how I'm going to get it. Time to stop letting unnecessary situations/people enter my life and inject doubt into the decisions I make for myself. Time to finally start living for myself and what I believe in.
Time to start spending more time on this fucking blog!!! Seriously though, I'm not very impressed with myself OR Rox for that matter, for leaving this blog bare for so long. This is our only platform at the moment and I appreciate that people understand that. We still haven't got a good enough camera to upload videos frequently, but hopefully my March or something that will have changed. Or maybe sometime soon we will just borrow someone's camera for a month or so and record some videos. If anyone out there could help us with that, that would be GREAT!
If anyone would like to suggest something for us to speak on/make/do just email us meltingicons@hotmail.co.uk or email Rox personally (as she checks her email more than me I'm sure) traceyroxanne@hotmail.com
If you have got this far into reading then I thank you for that. If you are reading this but dont really know what our blog is about then please do go on the archive and just go through our previous posts etc. This is just a 'Welcoming' 'Hey we've fucking finally pulled our fingers out' kinda post, but more serious and relevant ones will be up very soon! probably in a few hours!
I just hope you guys will stick with us as we go on YET another journey as MELTING ICONS.
Love
Africa
