A Year or So Later….

Rugby Sevens details here

My dreads and I have come a loooong way. I have very curly soft hair, so my attempt of dreadlocks was going to be a difficult one. Impatience, keeping them smelling fresh and clean were among the challenges, but I got through them. Now I have a calendar marked when they are due to be spruced up.

    Ah, dreads. Never tried them. And with a receding hairline, it looks like my chance to try it out is long gone! Looking good!

    @pointi….thanks! Pia mimi, mchongwano aint my thing.

    @archer….tihihihihi! It seems you cant count. I saw your comment. As for your dreads, seems your mum aint the only one doing so. Kwanza with recent events, ‘innocent’ jamaaz in Nai with dreads are trembling lest they are mistaken for being the latest menace.

    @inexes….who is the stalker? Ebu tia zii babaishaing me!

    @egm….thanks!

    @aco….you better. I have been waiting for that pic sijui mpaka when. Edu harakisha.

    @3N….you don’t worry. Next will be the cleavage. I am sure that will send people clicking like they have never clicked before. Au? ;)
