Internal walks.

5 Things that have "touched" me in some way these past  couple of weeks.

1. Eve Ensler's Play, I Am An Emotional Creature
2. Late Movie shenanigans with the homies. ( ALWAYS )
3. Hearing my cousin was just as unsettled by my hatius from our friendship
4. uMama wam and the sacrifices she makes for me
5. And all the 10 000 other things. Im a girl. Im ALWAYS touched.

New month, self shenanigans : Outfit Post

As I rummaged through my timeless wardrobe .. I came across this super cool mini that umama bought for me at a sale five or six years ago . Of course then I thought it was super hideous but now it's unusual . I love unusual. So I love the skirt now and I just had to put on my favorite Anisa skirt. Ugh I just always feel sax in it.

Also I put on some oversized shirts and vests and rocked my over sized dungaree. Bad hair day and badly done faux freckles.. I rocked it because I can. 

Bless.

Reflections

Hi it's Luthando

I'm not really sure how to start this blog post in a way that'll entice you to keep scrolling down and reading but I'll try the cliché  "life and it's relatable shenanigans has me down" route. In usual 17-year old cases, I'd be expected to look to those quote pictures for emancipation but alas they cure not the growing pains (which is what I've ignorantly diagnosed myself with).

I have been feeling jaded as of late. It's disgusting, almost as revolting as being dependant on anything/anyone besides yourself. I don't like routine. I really dislike it and ironically at this stage, my entire life is based on routine. I am a creative. But my creativity is confined and restricted by expectations placed on me and clouded by disappointments I'm always having to "get over" .

Anyway the just of this is to just sit back and reflect on what's preventing you from BEING GREAT.  EMANCIPATE YOURSELF FROM MENTAL SLAVERY as Bob Marly once sung.

Bless.

P.s I apologise for the long absence, school is hectic.
