I have been an active writer for over a decade and published my first book in August 2007. This marked the start of Varsity Blah, a personal development blog that has now received almost 250,000 hits from over 125 countries worldwide. The best entries have been compiled into my latest book, which was reviewed on Authonomy.com: “This is some very insightful stuff… The way the book is structured, paired with your capabilities of drawing great narrative, leads this on the right path. This cleanses the mind.”

Isn't the property market absolutely amazing right now? No, I'm not being sarcastic nor was this written years ago.

It would also be the last day of term, which meant I could really party guilt-free. It would be perfect.
Do you remember the iPhone? It was that thing unveiled with much brouhaha a few years ago and launched some months later before production cutbacks kicked in. So, was it all just a case of overheated hype or was the iPhone actually worth the drama? Well, I'm not here to talk about merit of the product itself simply because I honestly can't say. As far as I know, it might very well be the best thing ever. Then again, it might not.
Waiting for luggage at the airport carousel is typically quite dull. So imagine my surprise when I bumped into South African rugby fullback, Percy Montgomery. Being a less than ardent follower of the sport, I didn't know whether congratulations or condolences were in order. Besides, the last thing I wanted was to be the umpteenth fan desperate to finally know his brand of shampoo.
