1. In my spare time, I watch old movies and read books. I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I would like to start doing adventurous activities such as bungee jumping and river rafting.

 2. My Instagram videos are inspired by my surroundings. They are spontaneous, and I make them to interact with people.

 3. My biggest pet peeve is people who treat others poorly. They make my blood boil because I don’t understand that behaviour.

 4. My family and being in prayer makes me happy. Sometimes life gets difficult. But, knowing that I can pray and that there’s a bigger force behind me makes everything better.

 5. My go-to snack is biltong. I simply love it!

 

I’m HACKED…. literally.

 6. My favourite movie is Inglourious Basterds. It’s not a classic, but it’s one of my favourites.

 7. I don’t like movies that end in happily ever after. This is because I understand that life doesn’t work out that way. Such movies are unrealistic.

 8. I really wanted to be a part of Vampire Diaries. Now that it’s over, I would love to be on Game of Thrones as Khaleesi’s long lost sister!

 9. I wish that I would have written the movie The Riot Club. It tackles important topics, but it fell short in many ways. The scriptwriting is one example of those shortfalls.
