Me in my hometown, Port Elizabeth
You would think that home is the one place that you can go to in order to be yourself. I feel like when I am home it is when I question who I am the most.

My Boy is in Town
I live in Johannesburg and before that I lived in Cape Town. In Cape Town I made a friend who remains to be one of my good friends today. He recently came up to Johannesburg and he has a girlfriend this side. His girlfriend can be very materialistic as well as her friends. So when he is here we had to dress up and drink the expensive stuff. Im still a student and my drink of choice is Castle Lite....
