Who I Am...

I am an African buildimg my way to success.

 

So as I was setting up this page, H (Tha Souljah) asked why I wrote "Believe" instead of "Belief"? This is what I said, " I say 'Believe' because it is directed to me, I believe in me. for me to succeed and get to where I want to be and beyond. I have to believe in me, give myself enough credit and motivation, trust in me, in the fact that I can and I am doing it.

 

I went on by saying. " Once I work on me through believing in me, my ambition will help lead me to my destination, with patience. Along the way I will remain Faithful to my most High and keep in touch with Him through communication (Prayer)."

 

I have always been that enertainer in the house. I remember this one night we had a loadshedding at home. Being able to see each other only because of the candles we had I went to my room for waredrobe beacuse when I entertained I went all out. I used my mums doekies and added the size of my bum. I then went to the living room and started dancing and singing for everyone. I always imitated the actors and actresses we have in South Africa. My mother would tell me to get into the television indusrty. At that point I never understood her but now I do. Thanks Mama!

Currently I am an Anchor/Presenter on a show called The Job Channel ewhich plays every Mon-Fri from 10am to 11am on Mindset TV (DStv Channel 319).
