My DTS friends where delighted to find me on facebook, since I haven't been very active in the cyber world these last two years. Sorry, internet was rationed at University. (Naturally I used it for research.)
SHOCKING NEWS
- I've left my university. Jip, SO not me hey? However I did not abandon my course. I m just joining another academy to study the same degree, but with a more practical approach.
- IM 21! So cool, had the nicest 21st
- Im back at Media Village. Can you believe it? Really missing my DTS ans SVp comrads
SO, WHAT AM I DOING NOW
Basically I work hard and play hard
Doing freelance graphics for various people, helping at Media Village with Editing and Scripts. Working for my Dad's development company, interior decorating (my sisters house looks great & a guest house coming up) Peole generally have the idea that Im bored after taking a break of my studies. I get asked aal kinds of favours cause I LUV being creative, so it does'nt always feel like Im working, however I have over done it (sice my creativity peaks at night). The day before I rocked up at MV, I cracked and cried of exhaustion - nothing sleep can't cure (I ned to say NO with a smile on my face to some favours : )
COOL STUFF THAT HAPPENED
- My Dad and I visited Isreal for June holiday 2006 - Best time EVA!
- I've been doing really well at university and made the Dean's list
- I went to visit Egypt with my Ancient Cultures class for research Dec 2006
- I have the coolset flatemate in the world - Heike a German girl, also a Graphic Designer
- I've been focussing on making my art more market friendly...and have sold a few stuff by now. Im so excited
- Ive made the coolset friends at Univ - like sisters and brothers.
TRAILS OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS
- my parent's divorse is still 'pending' or 'downloading'. Yes, this is the second year ince they decided to 'end' it. This prosess has been tedious, stressful and unessasary.
- My mother now lives alone in the family house, since everyone has moved out. I shipped out when Lelani came to stay in my room, my dad moved out, then Lelani moved to Pretoria (she got a better job offer than being my mom's PA) and now my bro Dewan has moved out also. I guess who had to be his partner in crime...?Me, I'm basically the moving buddy everyone phones when they need a hand. Eish!..(my poor back)
- The theory for my arthistory was very dark and desturbing. The course was truly a challenge for my heart. Needless to say "anxiety of the heart causes depression" -Prov something: something
I was really strugling with depression and family stuff wasn't quite helping.
- I've decided to leave my church. This was a big step in my faith and really just trusting God. (still a christain and loving God)
WHAT HAVE I BEEN READING thats brilliant
- The road less traveled - Scott. M. Peck - pschology
- People of the lie - Scott. M. Peck - pshcology (Helped me deal with my past)
- Living with Jesus today - Carlos Otiz - made me reconsider thing we know as "church"
