BIG TUNE!

OOHH!! And one more thing people…Again, if you’re in SLU I’m urging you to go show support on the set of Kayo’s NEW “Endless Summer” video shoot. Here’s the info:

The video shoot for Endless Summer is scheduled for Saturday, 20 June. Let’s just hope and pray that the weather is in favour of our progress. Shooting commences from about 7:00a.m. to 7:30p.m. Thanx to one and all for the support you’ve shown. Much appreciation is expressed.

And don’t forget TOT (Take Over Tent) Calypso show is on at the Cultural Centre this Saturday 20th from 7pm ( I think). My very good friend, Chanel, will be performing. He is a really good budding Monarch. I think he has enormous potential, he WILL go very far and I want all of my readers who are in the St. Lucia area to go down to the Cultural Centre this Saturday the 20th June to show all the Calypsonians of the Take Over Tent some Lucian love!

***PLEASE SHOW SUPPORT FOR OUR OWN Ppl!***

PS: I can’t make it to either event as I will be babysitting all weekend. ..Sigh!

Lucians are doing it ULTRA-Big, I am oh so proud!

In my last post I promised that I would return 10 days after the published date, but I got caught up honestly. Everything happened so quickly. Time really was not on my side. After exams, I had to move out of my flat and while moving out my flat I had to do last minute packing, shopping and running around for my 3 month jet-setting. BTW,I’m in the sweet sweet Caribbean. I’m in St. Lucia on holiday. LOVES IT HERE, feels good to be home. Carnival is coming up soooooon and In a few hours Im gonna be going  jogging. Thats gonna be my daily routine to get and keep fit for Carnival 2k9 in July. Im dreading the daily jogs, but I need to be fit anyway. Im even eating better since I’ve been here.

But IM BACK! The blog post will be coming along as promised! And MsZindzi.com will be my playground just like before my busy bee extended hiatus. Im happy its all over now and Im settled. Im gonna be blogging like its going out of style.

Another things: I hope yall Checked out the list of my fav  blogs,  and added me on twitter.
