This weekend I went to comic con which is a big festival of games and comic books. I had heard about Comic Con because of the TV show The Big Bang Theory where they talk about it a lot. It was held at the Kyalami race track. Before the festival I was quite nervous because […]
This weekend I went to a children’s literature festival at the Nirox Sculpture Park in Kromdraai. My old dance partner Phemelo and her mum came all the way from East London on the bus to come to the festival. When she got here Phemelo told me that the bus ride was terrible and but they […]
I had a very busy social weekend. On Friday I went for a sleepover with my friend Jason. Then as soon as I got home my mum told me that that my friend Claudio was going to come for a sleepover on Saturday night. And there was also the Hartiwood Food and Film Show […]
Recently I have been working hard for my grade 2 ballet exam. Usually we only have one class a week but Teacher Mariette has been taking me and my partner, Welne, twice a week so that we can be ready. The last lesson approached. After our final run through my teacher gave us each a […]
About a month ago I had a vegan meal at Amuse Café in Linden. They have a vegan evening once a week. I hadn’t yet put up the blog that I wrote about that meal because I was wanting to go back and take some more pictures. I took pictures on the night but by […]

This week I went to the Mandela Lecture at the Wanderers stadium in Johannesburg. The lecture was given by former American President Barack Obama. Everyone in South Africa tried to get tickets and we were lucky because my mum got us tickets to the event because she knew someone at the Nelson Mandela Foundation. At […]
It is the school holidays. In previous holidays I have been very bored and have had nothing to do except lounge around and watch movies on the sofa and play Assassin’s Creed Revelations. Psttt. By the way I finished the game. So, I said to my parents ‘this time it is going to be different.’ […]
I do latin dancing and my first partner was Phemelo Kgotle. Sadly, she moved to East London so we don’t dance together anymore but she came back for a visit and her mum took us to the movies at Menlyn Park Pretoria. It was the best day ever. Before we even got to the movies […]
I went to Blue Ocean Virtual Reality in Bedfordview in Johannesburg as a treat. It is quite expensive – R400 for a 4 hour session – but it was really cool and I am very glad I went. My mum took me. We left very early because I live quite far away from Johannesburg and […]
