People’s positive attitude and enthusiasm since the start of “Two Thousand and Mine” has given me a good feeling about this year. But I was not even remotely prepared for the events of last week.
Even though it started (and ended) as a joke, the Nerdies 2009 was a huge ego boost. To be named the second sexiest girl-geek in SA is awesome! The side-splittingly funny ShebeeGee and her crazy crew of SteveMcD, ExMi, Byron, Lord Wiggly and SimonB had us all in stitches with the twists, turns and almost x-rated bits of commentary. I’m almost glad I didn’t win (even though the prizes are awesome!) cos I promised that if I did, I’d wear my Little Miss Twitter outfit, undies and all, to 27Dinner this month…. phew! close call!
I love not taking myself seriously and am glad that so many other people do too. Huge and hearty congrats to Sue Rutherford and Andre van Rooyen for being the official Nerdies – you both deserve it!
The real honour was being included on “King Blogger” (sorry Mike, I had to) Mike Stopforth’s list: Ten (More) Young South African Digital Citizens To Watch.
Wow, I am surprised and amazed to be included in a post with the likes of Chris Mills, Adii and Charl Norman! In fact, I think that weird goose-like aliens must have kidnapped Mike, done some very interesting probes and brainwashed him into putting me on that list. Or maybe it is a typo (a big one as it’s hard to imagine someone trying to spell someone else’s name and ending up with Schneigansz).
Either way – it’s amazing and has made 2009 officially the best year ever so far.
Thank you twits, you rock the party!
