1. I fell in love with this teddy bear the moment a very special person in my life gave it to me. It now has a permanent spot in my bedroom, and seeing it every day makes me happy.

 

2. I’m currently studying psychology and use my tablet to do my schoolwork. I recently started playing games on it and have now become an avid gamer.

 

3. The photo frame that has a picture of me and my late aunt, Zamakhanya Khanyile, gives me comfort and strength. The picture reminds me of her resilient spirit.

 

4. It has taken me a long time to find the perfect lip colour! I was excited when I received this L.A Girls matte lipstick as a gift; it complements my skin tone.

 

5. Because I find writing therapeutic, I often write letters to myself in my notebook. This helps me to reflect; I also enjoy poetry.
