Kaapse draai.

Nounet in pta aangekom van die Kaap af. Langste 20ure trip van my lewe. Ek ry nooit weer met n bus nie. Gelukkig het Sa die mooiste scenary om te bied.
My hart le in die Kaap.
I went to Blouberg, Melkbostrand, Dolphin beach, Seapoint, Parrow, Tygervalley, Muizenberg etc. My favourite treat though was an all American corndog, yummy en ek het ongelooflik baie "fun"  gehad by die Ysterplaat kar en lugskou. Saw some awesome planes. The Silver Falcons Acrobatic Airforce team rocks en ek het selfs n beurt gekry om saam met n top drift span bietjie te drift. Nou daai is manne wat weet hoe om kar te bestuur.

Save our planet please... The beauty of our world is dying.

London (CNN) -- Africa's western black rhino is now officially extinct according the latest review of animals and plants by the world's largest conservation network.
The subspecies of the black rhino -- which is classified as "critically endangered" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species -- was last seen in western Africa in 2006.
The IUCN warns that other rhinos could follow saying Africa's northern white rhino is "teetering on the brink of extinction" while Asia's Javan rhino is "making its last stand" due to continued poaching and lack of conservation.
"In the case of the western black rhino and the northern white rhino the situation could have had very different results if the suggested conservation measures had been implemented

Poaching and lack of conservation have made a subspecies of Africa's black rhino (pictured) extinct.

Africa's northern white rhino is "teetering on the brink of extinction" according to the lastest IUCN Red List

In 1996 the Przewalski's Horse was listed as "extinct in the wild." But thanks to a captive breeding program its population has risen to around 300, say the IUCN.

The Coco de Mer has been "uplisted" from vulnerable to endangered due to increased fires and illegal havesting f its kernels.

The summers' poison frog is a recently discovered amphibian which is classified as endangered.

The blessed poison frog is currently listed as vulnerable, say the IUCN.

Eastgate Look of Fashion

Just want to say thank you to Eastgate Mall Management for hosting an amazing event. I participated in the Eastgate Look of Fashion and came in at 1st place. i received amazing prizes and I look forward to work with the mall and all the people that I met.

There were amazing judges such as Miss South Africa, Kurt Darren, Franco and much more and we were dressed by Marlboro, Levis, Camaroon, Old Khaki, Guess, Shesha and the Girls looked amazing.

It's really a mall worth visiting. they have an amazing variety in fashion stores and good restaurants as well as food stores for your all round shopping experience.

Charity event.

I had the best time at my charity event last night. Lekker mamma Arica. It was held at the Belgium Campus in Acasia. Just want to say thanks to Danmari Bower and company for their help and their support in organizing the event while I was at the beach. It is great to have such good friends. I hope all for the best to the other MRSA contestants. I am looking forward to the finalist event. It is always a pleasure to meet new people.

Whoop whoop.

Life

How goes to all the people participating in life. When life throws a hard ball at you, you wack that thing into a home run.

Journey.

It's amazing that some people have travelled all over the world and not even seen the most beautiful places in South Africa. I recently went on a Journey as part of the Gap Year i am doing with Target Life that took me to the most extraordinary places in SA that I never even knew existed. From Natures Valley all the way to Simonstad, Clifton, Stellenbosch, Knysna, Plettenburg Bay, Blouberg Strand, Cango Caves, Oudshoorn etc. And i saw this all in one week. Amazing. I especially liked the military base in Oudhoorn where I had the opportunity to detonate a claymore mine. It's basically a bomb made of C4 explosives. What a thrill.

People should definitely invest more in touring South Africa.

Ek was die jaar deel van n gap jaar en dit was een van die beste jare van my lewe. As enige een van julle nie weet wat jy volgende jaar wil doen nie of jy ken iemand soos jou boet of sus wat sopas uit die skool is en hulle wil dalk net n jaar af vat om te sien wat hulle wil doen, sal ek julle aanmoedig om na die volgende website te gaan kyk en dalk net by een van die ope dae aan te sluit.

He made all the money, had all the cars, houses and women he could handle, but still found himself with...

You have the right to be treated with respect. You have the right to express your feelings and to be listened to.

Nothing comes without some labour.

So i kinda finished my blog spot and I am quite impressed with what I am able to do on a computer. I'm not the late in bed kinda guy. But what has to be done, has to be done.

I thought technology was supposed to make everything easier...? You know what is easy? Being on a farm in the wild with nothing but your thoughts and the whistle of the trees in the back ground.

So this is my first post and I will do my best to keep in touch with the technologically advanced world of today. please let me know if there is anything that anyone wants to chat about.

Cheers.
