Elysium

One of those movies that gets lost in the midst of a bunch of other movies. Poor planning? Bad luck? Doesn’t matter. I’m sure a lot of people watched it and their enjoyment wasn’t held down by Gravity or Carrie. As with all standard sci-fi dystopian dramas, Elysium’s scriptwriters followed the handbook like star pupils.

Tresence- Cafe l Gelateria

Tresence enters the ring as a newbie with a lot going for them. First of all, location, location, location.  Situated on the 5^th Floor of the newly opened Osu Mall, tresence is not just in the trendiest part of town, it’s in soon-to-be landmark building. Now, I won’t go into the pros and cons and predictions of the failure or success of having a mall on the busiest road in the city, but let’s just say, for now, it works. The building is at most, halfway done. The parking is nothing to write home about and truthfully, there’s really not much to see/do right now aside from Shoprite.

BEYONCE Running Commentary

1.       PRETTY HURTS

Is this track broken? I knew it I knew it…damn Torrentz…..oh ok…it’s keche….cool…hmm, yeah… Pretty hurts and Perfection is a disease mayne.

Is this her plastic surgery confessional? I see…

Short of the irony of Beyonce of all people singing about the pain of aspiring to perfection, this song is catchy and uplifting-ish. This is no “Unpretty” but I’ll give her kudos for the socio cultural significance. I also can’t stand the constant harping on beauty-inner beauty-real beauty etc. Can we all just agree and call it what it is? Beauty is beauty, Intelligence is intelligence, Compassion is compassion, we really need to stop trying to make ‘beauty’ a synonym for ‘good’

Sunshine Salad Bar

Sunshine salad bar serves sandwiches and salads, as one would rightly assume, but this little known establishments a surprisingly varied menu.   In addition to the expected Indian cuisine such as chicken and beef curries with rice. They also serve more "continental" dishes such as fries and grilled chicken. 

Pinnochio

It seems Gelaterias really are a mark of Cosmopolitan living, because just a block away from Ci Gusta/Koala on 11th Lane, Embassy Road off Oxford Street is yet another one.
