The Zoey behind Zoey

The names I respond to are Simphathisiwe, Nkosisiphile, Ntando, Nomvuzo, Lindiwe, Zoey, Cassandra Sibeko, with Sibeko being the surname of course. My home language is supposed to be isiSwati, but we generally speak in English, I blame my brother, because when I was born I found him speaking English and I pretty much played along. Home is in Springs, Johannesburg, but because I am at Rhodes University doing a dual major in Journalism and Law, I am in Grahamstown for the next 5 years.

What I do for fun is watch movies, listen to music, sing, eat, laugh, think about food and things to laugh about. My favourite colour is blue and my favourite place is any MacDonalds outlet which opens 24/7. I love pets because they are cute and cuddly, but I am not keen on the amount of responsiblity involved, they are worse than kids. I love kids. I'd like to think that I am a friendly person, sometimes too much, but I have been told a few times by a few people that I am mean and cold. Needless to say, those people were probably bitter because I said no to one or more of their questions. Sore losers!!! I love my friends and family is very important to me. In my heirarchy of things that matter, I'd say that God comes first, followed by my mom, followed by me, followed by my dad, followed by the entire Sibeko clan, followed by friends and significant other(s).

I think a lot and these are often crazy thoughts, so I camouflage my thoughts with the things that I say. I am excellent at pretending and improvising but I sometimes hate the fact that I am. Most of what I do is to make those around me happy, because their happiness ultimately equals my happiness. In fact, while most people study so they can be rich, I am studying so that I can get a well paying job in order to make "Hope In A Box" a successful independant venture. What is hope in a box? An initiative to put smiles on sad and sometimes sick faces of children in orphanages everywhere, using shoe boxes filled by generous people with kinds hearts who know that giving is more rewarding than getting.

My pet peeves-things that erk me- are public urination, dishonesty, arrogance, selfishness and people who don't answer my calls- this includes if they didn't hear the phone ring because it was on silent. WHY IS YOUR PHONE ON SILENT, RETARD? I absolutely hate peanut butter, the colour pink, people who don't answer their phones, violence (unless food is involved), abuse of any sort and crime. I am allergic to animal fur, grass, feathers, bohemian grass, mayo, honey, dirt and messy people. My greatest fear- SNAKES- Enough said.

I love food, friends, family and fun. My favourite quote is: "The greatest lesson you'll ever learn is to love and be loved in return". My weakest weaknesses are; lack of punctuality, the fact that I speak my mind and the fact that I find it VERY hard to trust people. My strongest strengths are; I speak my mind. I am very good at everything I do and the ones I suck at, I work hard at until I own them... Now, to the juicy bit, the moment we have all been waiting for. Am I single? Nope, I'm triple!! Lol.

Stay tuned...
