From The Twittersphere APART from Monday being a Rafa-tastic day, the weather’s domination of life, the universe and Unam (note: Unam and the universe should not be confused) continued. But its ‘talk of the nation’ status is likely to take a hit on Thursday, when the World Cup kicks off! Otherwise, the kwaito life, extra-marital affairs, donkeys and Yaya, with a sweetener of biscuits and jam. @alisamupolo: Windhoekers turn into Britons as conversation in all places shifts to weather, with hot water in the morning as a common aspiration for all. @ellis_hugh: Generally our conversations are pretty ‘British’, or theirs ‘Namibian’: the weather, extra-marital affairs, useless politicians @festusvalde: It’s so coooold I just wish my life was a little bit more of a living hell... @DodoniaF: If only life was as easy as asking the winter season to take a warm pill. @Chikoberry: Have to put vaseline blue seal on my face. This weather is not playing around :/ @DylanMukoroli: Namibia is just freezing cold… Gosh #Grabs_Givenchy_Coat @Thandi_Ndapz: You dress like an Eskimo on campus just to go to town and realise it’s not even that cold. Unam’s funny weather also -__- @Albi_Me: I don’t understand the female species Unam harbours, who don’t feel the cold. I’m here in my three layers and this one is in booty shorts. Sports Snippets @Its_Asser: Future tweet #WorldCup #TeamNamibia @Puxi_GBB: Running through these Twitter streets like Yaya on a one-man counter attack!!! @bubbs07: Thanks guys, we appreciate the effort, but we’ll just use ‘Waving Flag’ for this World Cup too. @ChippoT: Come on, Rafa!!! Do you, it’s your turf!! #Vamos #FrenchOpen @DautiToni: YEAH!!! The King lives on. Congratulations @RafaelNadal! 9 French titles! Wow! @RolandGarros #SStennis #KingOfClay At Random @PietrezHaukongo: Life is too short to be living someone else’s dream, my felende. Get off that high horse, let’s chill on our donkeys. @wittnsass: Hey Monday, I mean no disrespect but uhhhm, I don’t like you. @TaixaS: Thursday taking its sweet time to get here, yoh! @Frans1214: These new-school kwaitos, making the originals look bad, bloody wearing leather pants which don’t fit and all-stars… My heart is bleeding. @TaixaS: Put me on ‘Come Dine With Me’ and watch me serve jam on tennis biscuits for dessert. Passing Shots @ChilliKong: “Short people have very LITTLE in common” :D @OrdinaryK: What’s the fascination with enabling computers to think for themselves? Have people not watched iRobot? @Naffy101: This subject has me feeling like someone with a learners who messed up while parallel parking “let me start over, I’m not ready”. – Compiled by Jean Sutherland from twitter; you can follow me on Twitter at: @JeanNamibian
