Beach Day!

 "Life is like the ocean. it can be calm or still, and rough or rigid, but in the end it is always beautiful." - unknown. 

The ocean for me is like therapy and my happy place. The sound of the waves relaxes my mind. Nature is a beautiful thing. A friend of mine once said the ocean look like an old man full of wisdom and I felt I did gain wisdom of my own by going to the sea. The reason I say this, growing up as a fat girl I was always conscious about my body and how I dress and always opting to cover up. Now going to beach slowly made me come out of my shell as I was free to be in a bathing suit and not caring about what anyone thinks about my body. I started gaining self confidence and saw how beautiful my body is. The self love doesn't come easy for all of us we need to dig deep inside our selves and heal, and we all know healing takes time so be gentle with yourself.

 One of the most precious things I did in my 20s was to travel. Started locally and in 2017 me and my friends decided to cross boarders and get those passports stamped honey (snaps fingers). I have a friend who is from Botswana and the idea started with visiting her country and we ended up dreaming big and decided to travel to 4 countries that year. We started in Swaziland which was fun and we attended the reed dance. Next on the list was Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia. It was in December and we stayed in Kasane which made it easier for us to cross to Zimbabwe and Zambia. We had a lot of fun and met with amazing people. We had a tour guide who took us places and to a beautiful game drive. I will never forget that experience and the memories we created to last us a lifetime. " Travelling- it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller." - Ibn Battuta. One experience that left me speechless was seeing the poverty in Zambia it was heart breaking but I guess that gave

Test week

 Stress all around as it was test week at our University. Now if you don't prepare in advance you know you prepare to fail. After two full years of on line learning because of Covid we are back to sit in exams and tests full time  and our brains are still in shock of everything. I am still a bit rusty and finding everything about school difficult especially with the funding problems I am currently facing, we also lost a classmate we loved dearly. But all of these are minor setbacks toward the end goal. We are so close to the finish line there is no turning back now we will keep on pushing.  We all have questions or worried about employment opportunities with the state of our economy and high unemployment rate is South Africa. The problem the graduates are facing in this country we can only hope for a light at the end of the tunnel.  That shouldn't demotivate us we know why we started, we have that common goal of getting out of poverty and education is our ticket!
