2020 has been a bit of a crazy year. It almost feels like everything that can go wrong is going wrong. We have been in quarantine for almost 2 months now. I cannot believe how long it has been! However, I have used this time to focus on myself and figure out what I want in life.  Photowall, a Swedish wall-art company sent...

I went on a road trip with my family about a month ago. We drove approximately 10 hours to my grandmother's village in North West for her 74th birthday party. We had an amazing time and it's always wonderful to create memories with family. That's why I think road trips are the best. I love everything about them. Except driving, I'm still too...

I got a smiley piercing a couple of months ago and I get quite a few questions about it. I thought I’d answer the questions and hopefully help someone who is considering getting a smiley piercing. All the information I’m sharing is not coming from a professional perspective but from experience. Where did you get your smiley piercing? Tattoo Styles. How much was...

I am a person who enjoys shopping and dressing up. However, I am not yet at a point in my life where I can afford all the pieces of clothing that I would like to own.  This has taught me that you don’t always need to have expensive pieces of clothing to put together a good outfit. I recently purchased an entire outfit...

The third quarter of university has been one of the most intense experiences of my life. This thing is not easy at all. Which is why Homecoming Africa 2018 was the perfect way for me to let loose and breathe for a while right at the beginning of recess. I bought my ticket around the beginning of August and I remember feeling like...

We are currently in the transition period between winter and spring and it’s always such a confusing time. It’s almost as though we experience all seasons in one day. About two weeks ago I went on a road trip to North West and the weather was a complete disaster. It was freezing. However, it gave me a chance to pull off some winter...

Just over a month ago I spent a day at RollEgoli in Sandton which is a roller rink. It was my cousin’s twenty first birthday and the original plan was to go bowling. Knowing that I suck at bowling I decided to suggest rollerblading and luckily everyone thought it was a good idea. It was our first time rollerblading and it was such...

Dubai has been quite a popular holiday destination and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. I would really love to visit Dubai one day. It seems like such a glamorous place and I know I deserve that glamorous lifestyle. I have it all planned out and I’m going to be living my best life. It’s going to be amazing. With TravelStart offering...

I didn't exactly know how to celebrate my 4 year blogiversary. I haven't felt like much of a blogger lately. I've only published 7 blogposts this year. That's a very embarrassing number knowing that there are times where I managed to post 25 blog posts in one month. I know we're supposed to be celebrating my little corner of the internet but life...

Last week I got my first tattoo. If you follow me on Twitter and Instagram you probably already know this. If you don't, you should probably follow me, it's @TheTshegofatso on both. The decision to get a tattoo was spontaneous. I've always wanted a tattoo and I always thought my first tattoo would be of sentimental value but a few days before I...

Birthday Brunch Ever since this year began I have been focusing on being happy. I think it's one of the only New Year's Resolutions I've actually stuck to. Now that I'm nineteen(woah), I just want to continuing to be genuinely happy.  Eighteen was a really good year for me. I stopped focusing on all the terrible things that have happened and started participating...

When 2018 began I wasn't entirely sure what my plan for the year was. I tried applying for learnerships and a few other things but nothing worked out. So, I decided to head the university route. It's been a month since I started university and it's nothing like high school. I still feel quite overwhelmed and I'm trying to adjust. It's a lot...

My three month blogging break has finally come to an end. I did not know it was going to end up being this long but it was exactly what I needed. It gave me a little time to breathe and figure things out. It's a new year and I'm looking forward to what's ahead.  I decided that I'm not going to make a...
