My Voix My Way

I believe it is a week today that the SONA (State of the Nation Address) for those of you who do not know what this is, when the presidency decides to make a mockery of South Africa or rather the parliament. It also seems that they get worse every year and guess what all of us were looking forward to all of that which turned out to be the best movie ever produced here. I am not here to tell you what is wrong nor who is wrong but mainly to give you a voice of what has happened. The EFF was kicked out of parliament and the DA simply walked out; now we all kmow that EFF speak a lot of sense but their approach does not do them any justice at all as they tend to act like spoiled children asking for a toy in the shop and when their request is not granted they rebel and throw themselves on the floor which we all know has never had any effect except getting a beating when you got home. In this scenario we will treat the ANC as the parents who need to be taught a lesson but do not want to lis...

I have been observant to the year 2016's post lately we have received so much bad news and situations that we gave it a slogan "It only gets worse". We have one through so much and unlike every other year everything seemed a little more tense than normal and we to some it was a time where hope was lost. I wrote my exams afterwards I then decided to go home and support my friend however afterwards i decided to go see my mom in Vryburg. I have not been listening to music just downloading alot of it and hoping I will listen to it during my travels. I was listening to Justin Bieber's new album and one the track titled " Children " made my ears itch a little more than usual. The song speaks of being visionaries and fighting for the young ones future. It speaks about how much we want to change the world for the young ones, being the generation and aspiration  to fight for the future and the difference whether or not our hearts are big enough to to die for what w...

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...

I do not understand the figure looking back at me, thats what I thought after washing my face. The past did not look bleak nor blurry anymore in actual fact I was happy about what had happened and its funny how I was hoping to get over it quicker. Your sweet disposition and how long we gaze into each others eyes, and you might be okay but I am not fine at all. I walk around like I have everything under control but honestly it is nothing but pieces of me scattering and the floor getting dirty. I smile in the hope that I will be able to pick up the pieces and clean myself up because BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY and the world does not care, worst of all you could not be bothered. You broke me like a promise and I'm paralysed, I feel numb and seeing you everywhere is not helping me and I wish I could look at you and hate every bit of you. I have been doing my best to get to hate you but I have been unsuccessful in doing so even after you ill treated me I kept on loving you but I coul...

We are approaching that season where people are able to bear it all out for the world to see and the thirst is on another level. It seems to be a new trend of thighs out, breasts  out, and skin in the open.  On my way from campus yesterday, there was a girl walking in front of me with a short skirt and the boys were staring like a dogs who just seen a piece of bone. Its funny because it wasn't the first time as the other girl on campus was wearing a crop top and the stares that came with the outfit was a little too much. This is just one of those situations where you want to wear anything you want and not be burned for it. I am not what I wear but I want to be able to wear what I want whenever I want and am comfortable in it.

It came to my attention on Thursday that people are quite spiteful and petty, it seems not everyone is as grown as they appear to be when you get to varsity. People are so obsessed with being popular and  that they make friends with the wrong people thinking that these people care about them when they don't. It also seems that people are not really concerned about loyalty anymore but are rather focused on the demeaning of other people regardless of how this will affect them in any way. When we grow up I like to believe that our circumstances make us who we are and because we have grown and understand the world a bit better we also do things better than what we would have in the past so when someone is poking you for a response and they keep doing things to you on purpose you asses the situation and decide whether it is a good decision to say something or not. A week before school started I asked God for courage, wisdom and understanding and this time the vibe was different, it w...
