I went to an event in the evening for my day job and while I had lots of fun, I only got home at 23.30 on a school night. I really feel my age when I miss out on sleep and don't get my full 8 hours.

If you’ve followed my various channels and my social media updates over the past year, you’ll be aware that I’ve worked closely with and have had a really rad run with OMEN by HP and Razer respectively. They’re both two really cool brands who are invested in doing awesome things within the local gaming space, and I’ve been very fortunate to have worked with them on…
Between load shedding and the rain, traffic this week hasn't been fun. What usually takes me 25 minutes took me 1h20m. Needless to say, I was late for work that day.

I had a pretty awful Monday. It started at 6am when I attempted to pull a mug from a high shelf and ended up knocking another mug out the cupboard - that mug promptly fell on my head and cracked in half.

It isn't the first time I've flown business class. A few years back I attended the Mobile World Congress…
Hello, February 2019. Januworry is now behind us and I've already had my first adulting moment of 2019.

I was delighted to discover that Wine of the Month was a partner. But instead…
My name is Sam, though I'm also known as Tech Girl and this is my little space on the internet. My friends and I share our love for all things gaming, geek and gadgets here. I'm a South African Esports host and content creator. Links to all my various platforms are here on the blog. I'm a giant nerd, own far too many pairs of Converse and secretly wish I could be one of the X-Men!
