The 26th Autumn Leaf

A photographic journal of my 26th year

Lucy Rip

“You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it.” These words by Robin Williams are the inspiration for this blog. Since I found that quote I have been on a quest to find the ridiculous madness in life - the kind that makes you laugh long and hard at its absurdity. I've decided to share my gems of discovery here. A candle loses nothing by lighting other candles and I suspect madness works in much the same way.

A bit about me... I'm a twenty something, living in South Africa. In my spare time I embark on ambitious house decorating projects, bake cookies with my Russel Hobbs cookie maker and hack my way around the occasional golf course. On a more serious note - I write for a digimag called illumin8. Visit www.illumin8.co.za for details or email "subscribe" to illumin8ezine@gmail.com. Its FREE!

The war is on!

 

(We’ve been listening to ‘Learn Italian’ CDs: Insectivo e cativo = Insect is bad)

We went to watch Leigh Anne’s touch team at IPT (Inter Provincial Touch Tournament) today. She was selected for the Gauteng Women’s Open Touch Squad as a result of the tournament.

We woke up to a huge storm brewing. My rose didn’t make it through the downpour!

I came out of my editing class to find that winter is coming, and along with it earlier sunsets. Was worth it for this site though.

Col gave me this watch for my 23rd birthday. It stopped the day after my 26th!
