I have lived in a town called Vryburg in the North West during my high school years. This town is not far from a small town called Taung which is where my sister and a few of their friends annually go spend a weekend. We have heard stories about this town growing up and this was my first time staying a little bit longer. This trip started three years ago and every year since then we have put together our money and resources to make it happen. It is called the Manthe weekend, it is filled with fun, food, traditional partying as well as strengthened friendships and too much offloading. It was my first time this year and I will be letting you in on my experience. We plan for this trip on the last day of the weekend which is on a Sunday. The trip kick starts on a Friday where everyone leaves their respective places to the venue. We buy everything that we will need for the weekend in advance so that when we get there, we do not run around but stay at the lodge and have enough tim...

We are taken through a world of three women who changed the world of engineering and the difference in power of how men ruled the mechanics world, The story follows three women who are mathematician, Mary has always wanted to be an engineer but in a world where being black and a woman who ...
I am going to touch a very sensitive issue today and yes i know you don't want to hear it. You have probably heard it so much that you blocked it out of your tiny brain but hey here it comes SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE IS IT OR IS IT NOT A SIN? I have been researching this topic for four years now and nothing has changed in fact it gets worse every year. I have been asking people young and old about this specific topic and most of the young ones had this to say "A relationship would never work without sex" "I love sex so much that as much as I love you i will need permission to get it outside" "Why would God create something then not let us perform it" "There is no scripture that says sex before marriage is a sin" "I have to taste before i marry,what if the person is bad in bed?" The last one really killed me because what does one know about someone being bad in bed,unless you actually have something to compare it to.The reason w...
