I haven't written anything in quite a while. I am a bit down , feel like what's the point to anything... But then I am reminded that there is this MA(RC) journey that I have to see to completion. As Steve Jobs would say, ".. press the reset button". I am on my second week of the second placement. I have hardly done anything in terms of my proposal. NOTHING. My favourite uncle passed away. Uncle Musa, it is still very difficult for me to say, the late, I mean really. He was my other father. On numerous occassions I would call on him when unsure of anything, especially my car issues. Yoh, I missed him even more on Sunday, his funeral was on Saturday. We had a car tyre puncture, I was so tempted too call his number knowing he would come and help.

Then yesterday, I see my childhood friend at her aunt's house. Only to find that her 30 year old, younger sister has passed on. Asanda Mbingeleli "Sandololo" as we would affectionately call her. I know this Masters hangs like the Chicken Licken orangutan ad on my shoulder, but for now, I am giving my loved ones my attention. Life happens, I will complete by the end of the year, but I am taking it easy...

Ja neh, life is short. You know it just made me realise that I shouldn't take my loved ones for granted. One never knows when the bell will ring...
