Makhaya

I love that fact that things have changed and technology has improved to our advantage but the one thing that worries me right now is the fact that the younger generation (myself included) have moved away or forgotten some of their roots. Where they come from, why things were the way they were, I say this because as a btec student that is putting together a research report I'm discovering how uniformed I am about some parts of our tradition and culture. I wish I lived emakhaya where I could gather and learn more about them.

Fortune cookie

Funny enough, I've always wanted to have a fortune cookie and take pictures of different stages. Wish I took a pic of me eating it :-D. I didn't know they had lotto numbers though, please don't play these, they are mine. It reads "You draw admiration when you find sudden inspriration" To the people that know me, do you think its true?

Make earrings

I beaded these panels of beads, I wanted to make earring with them but I can't seem to make up my mind about how the top is meant to be. Still playing around with ideas hey.

Bigger

There is a God "Not that I doubted" It wasn't about the number of beads or the neatness but the space that you leave. Wonder if I could do it again.

Smile

Don't be afraid of this smiley, its just the way I feel about beading the beaded bead, smiling but a bit angry about it. I think I got if all figured out but I want to kick myself for not figuring it out sooner.
