A glance back...


I would just to take a quick moment to look back at 2013...moments that made me happy, things I enjoyed, people I feel we need to keep an eye on this year and the high flyers in 2013…Here we go:
Homies that made me proud:


Mxolisi

Mxolisi Ndzimande works at eHlanzeni FET College who scooped an award for brand visibility in the Education sector! Who said awesome awards are in acting or music? My brother over here be making it rain! Marketers especially in Education sectors sit up and take a note, or two! He is also doing very well in business, keep eyes here to see what he brings in 2014. Well done my friend here’s to a GREAT year.
 




Collen


 Collen Nxumalo for an award as best first time published author at the South African Literacy Award on his book “From this point”. Well done home boy, proving that young black men do read and write. Soon he will be launching his second book “heaven is a better place” all the best.



Cool events:
For Witbank one of the biggest events was in May 2013 at the Civic Centre when SMG and Let’s Rock You Entertainment hosted The Soil. The event was on fire,later a surprise appearance by Zola who had been out of the scene for some time made this event one of the most talked about event in Witbank.
The Soil Performing at eMalahleni

Later in September Lets Rock You Entertainment did it again in Nkomazi and brought Zola to the people for the 3rd Annual MP Spring Picnic, epic...This featured some local Dj’s and  a lot of artists who are now making waves in the music industry with the likes of Choco, KB, Bruno, Pardon, Ghetto son and many more. Word is Zola will be realising an album this year...something to look forward to!

My biggest loss in 2013...

Losing my dear friend Bheki Senong in July. It was so sudden and unexpected, still hard to believe he is no more I had done an interview with him “Meet Bheki Senong” and there’s still so much he wanted to do, he left behind a beautiful wife with 2 beautiful kids...Miss you so much my Chomie.

My  two "this is ME" Moments

 Being nominated to be part of the POUT movement! Read the article I wrote “I am POUT” This really humbled me as my nomination meant that someone saw some potential in me being Powerful, Outstanding, Unique and Talented. There is a lot we will be doing in 2014/15 as the ambassadors keep your eyes peeled here: http://eepurl.com/NfIAT #POUT newsletter. Thank you so much to Zaza Motha the founder for believing in us to carry this brand as the first group of embassadors.

Also finally establishing my business. Procharm is my baby, my company that inspired me to be just who I am, to work harder to build a brand and legacy. The company is focused in Hospitality Training for people that are already in the industry like chef, food servers , housekeepers, front ofhouse staff and so on. The aim is to enhance and polish up the skills that these individuals have, in doing so they can fit into the ever evolving hopsitality industry giving the best service. Biggest break was working with Global village Guesthouse's chefs for 4 months. All gratitude goes back to those that belived in me when I started giving one on one private cooking lessons. This is only the begining...

Looking forward to a better and GREATER 2014. Please follow the blog, share the posts and do Comment.
