I need to stop writing about things in the post-experience mode, coming much later after the event and documenting what happened. Enough happens between the event passing and the moment of writing that you end up writing about yourself as you are right now, rather than reflecting on the event past. This is not without [...]

I haven’t had much strength and interest to write on here for all this time since my last post because the last two months have been very taxing. I think I left somewhere off after finishing a course of counselling.
A really shortened summary of what ensued: we moved to a new house on the golf [...]

Many years ago, I was very active in ministry in London. I would have mentioned this in earlier posts as it was a defining feature of my life and identity for a long time. This post is the first official and explicit piece about it all.

On Saturday night, I went to watch Footloose at the Nelson Mandel Theatre at the Civic Convention Centre in downtown Jozi. It was well-acted, very energetic, and entertaining. I found myself laughing out loud at the brash innuendo and well-time jokes. The girls were hot. The guys were on point. The accents were often off, [...]

I really am angry today and I'm trying to work through it somehow because I really need and want to work.
I had a IM conversation with a cousin from Egypt today in the morning, eventhough it feels it's still happening as I hear the words repeated in my head and feel it rolling [...]

On April 1st, I'll be moving into my new flat in Douglasdale, close to Fourways, in the Northern suburbs of Johannesburg.
It's a great flat, very similar in feel and function as my flat in Cricklewood, Northwest London. I will furnish this from scratch. This weekend, I bought cutlery and basic kitchen amenities.
In 2006, I left [...]

In 24 days, I'll be moving out into my own flat in Joburg. It's a lovely 1 bedroom loft in a great part of town.
But right now? Things are so bad at home. 
I hate them… I'm nothing in their eyes. I'm garbage. Absolute garbage.
I Know I'm Here
I know I'm here This feeling is here [...]

I signed a contract for a one album record deal with Mash Entertainment on Tuesday night.
The cottage I saw a few weeks back has become available and I will be able to move into it next month, around this time.
A protracted, painful, epiphanal fight with my parents last night left my sister in tatters and [...]

Three weeks ago, I was in the process of making a music video in collaboration with my friend Zethu, who owns and runs Mash Entertainment. The project was sprung on me one Saturday morning, overpowering me like a whirlwind. And for the duration of the time I worked on it, it was like that. For [...]

I'm human and I gave up.
I wasn't even aware that I was seceding everything to absolute nothingness, unproductivity, and despair. A cold sense of irony pervades me as I write this; having championed and fought so hard for self-awareness, I didn't sense I was falling and with it, my plans and hopes for a [...]
