LET US DO A QUICK CATCH-UP - BLOGTOBER DAY 5

Soweto, South Africa

So I really love blogging and dove into it as a way to escape, 
from pressures of my everyday life. 
Blogging found me at my emptiest and gave me an outlet to share my 
creative side. 

Throughout the years, the blogging landscape has changed I would 
say for the better because who knew that sharing your thoughts on 
on products could get you coins.
I'm always ever so grateful to the girls that came-up after me
and blew up the industry because we are now getting paid because of them (HEY(",))

Well if you don't know what this blog is about let me tell you, 
it is about sharing everyday beauty, it being life"style", affordable beauty
meaning if it found in the township I will most likely review/feature it, food and my love for it. 
I would love to dive into the lifestyle part but this year I will not, rona is 
still out there and I'm not taking chances
 (p.s. I'm not living in fear I'm just recognizing realities). 

For the rest of 2020 I will be mainly focusing on Beauty related content (my first love)
 sharing tutorials and everything. Before I forget I am participating in #projectpan for this 
duration and using make-up products I already have because stores are not allowing 
swatches and all which is understandable. I will still be buying skincare, and all just
not make-up.

The more I write the less anxious I become, I like that. 

See you in tomorrow's post.

3 Things That Make Me Happy

Chilling With Friends

Let us be honest finding time out of our ever busy schedules to chill with friends is kinda difficult, 
so I always tend to settle for those spare of the moment breakfast, lunch dates and after work drink catch-up sessions cause they are much more fun than those planned never gonna happen events LOL.


Staying Make-Up and Wig Free

A 100% of the time when I'm at home I stay make-up and wig free, which I love and that makes me happy. 


Me Time

If you didn't see my blogpost this week about masks then I will link it HERE, I will just say laundry done, clean house, bubble bath and a face mask... 
and wine obviously that makes for a very happy Zanele. 

I hope that you have a great weekend. 

See you soon...

Thank You March

Just thought that I should share some of these beautiful words. 

“Patience Is Not the Ability to Wait: 
Patience is not the ability to wait. Patience is to be calm no matter what happens, constantly take action to turn it to positive growth opportunities, and have faith to believe that it will all work out in the end while you are waiting.” 
― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

Ending 2016 Full of Gratitude

Zanele Mondi /// In Out & Around Soweto Blog
On Wednesday I was babbling and  today I continue to. I'm just so grateful for 2016 and all it's challenges and glory. I just want to thank you guys for taking time out of your busy schedules and heading over to my blog and reading whatever piece of information I might have for you that day. 
Blogging has allowed me to share a piece of my shy self and I hope that in 2017 I continue to come out of that shelve while sharing my experiences. 

I will leave it here and I will see you tomorrow where I close the
 Capturing December 2016 PhotoChallenge.

I share with you simple quotes from *Steve Maraboli, which just sum up my year beautifully. 

“Dare to Be

When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness, dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice, dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult, dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down, dare to fight back.

When there seems to be no hope, dare to find some.

When you’re feeling tired, dare to keep going.

When times are tough, dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you, dare to love again.

When someone is hurting, dare to help them heal.

When another is lost, dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls, dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross paths with another, dare to make them smile.

When you feel great, dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended, dare to feel as you’ve done your best.

Dare to be the best you can –

At all times, Dare to be!” 

― Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free
