KWA-BULAWAYO-Places of entertainment

''Woza Friday!!'' (Come Friday!!!)
Horizon
  THAT is the anthem for all the people who had a long week who can't wait for the weekend. Weekends are a time to relax and entertain yourselves by a way you see fit. In Bulawayo particularly, you can go to restaurants or bars just to enjoy yourself like Horizon, Club forty40, Club Eden, B.A.C, Club Vegas, Cafe Baku, Stop Over and so many more. These places have become a prominent place to go and have fun. Some of these places even host National and International musicians and actors. The likes of DJ Zinhle, M.J, Senzo, Winky D, Oliver Mtukudzi and many more have been to most of these places. Just last weekend the famous singer of 'Mawayawaya' Shinsoman was performing at Stop Over for the Valentine's gig. Well, last year there were a series of artists who came to the City Of Kings to entertain the masses, no wonder why people love weekends so much. You can also see it by the way people talk about what was happening during the weekend on Monday morning. Its like if you did not go out on that particular weekend quite frankly you have nothing to talk about on that morning. Kwa-Bulawayo is also friendly towards non-clubbers. It has go restaurants, fast foods like Nandos where the chicken there is  unresistable, and food express where you get value for your money. Kwa-Bulawayo where you can enjoy yourselves on any time of the day especially on the weekends. WOza friday ( come friday)!!!

Online Dating-Fake Profiles


Online dating- Social networks have spread rapidly in these past years due to the increment of the usage of mobile phones.Facebook and other dating sites ,am not really sure about Twitter, are used by people to find their perfect matches. Even reality shows also offer a platform for people to find real love,the bachelor, but the question is that is this love found on the Internet real? Does this love last? Is it safe to use the Internet dating sites to find real love?
 I for one have tried finding love online but it all came crumbling down on me, it turned out that the person I was 'dating' was a guy. A man!! Like really what kind of a person acts as a woman putting a woman's photo as his profile picture. After this happened i never used these online dating websites. It all started when I broke up with this girl i used to date around my hood. I was so frustrated that I spent two weeks indoors staring at my computer.online dating website and met this 'girl',we became friends on Facebook and had long chats on Whats app then when it came to Skype, phone calls that's when i discovered it was a man eewww!!!!
 I could not believe i was telling another guy that 'I missed him' that I 'loved him' blah blah. I ended things immediately and deleted all of my social networking profiles, changed my number. Actually I did not end things, i cut off every connection that I used to communicate with 'her'. But I had seen this happen on television and I thought it was just to entertain but it was real. Catfish-The TV Show
usually broadcast on MTV deals with these kind of issues. Two guys help out those who use these online dating websites by exposing the lies of some of these people using fake profiles and all. It exposes all the good and bad stuff associated with this online dating. Fake profiles like really who does that. Crazy or what?

A 9 year old smokes, drinks and steals

Shocking but very true, maybe age in this day and Age is just a number i don't know, but after I saw this I can definitely say so. What happened to the innocence in kids? When i was nine i did not know what alcohol was and what a cigar was up until today but the kids of today know it whilst still at a tender age. Was browsing the You-tube website when I saw this video of a nine year old who drinks smokes and steals money, the only thing I stole when i was nine years old was sweets and sugar, didn't know that money could be stolen. Even though stealing sugar is stealing but I think its become more of  norm for kids to steal sugar and nothing more.Maybe its because of the fact that my mother told me that cash notes and coins had the owner's name written on it but even though I was scared of taking anything that did not belong to me. I thought they would turn me into a monster just like what they do in the horror movies and mostly I was afraid of getting a thorough beating from my Dad. When i was growing up I used to be beaten if I did anything crazy, it was hectic. The thing that amazes me now is that the children of now are not being beaten, is it because of the new laws which forbid parents from beating their own children. How I wish these laws dated back to the 19s when I was still nine years old. If i can go back to being nine years God knows what I would do because of the things I know now but its so amazing what kids do these days. Others even hit their own parents. Is the world coming to an end or what? Are parents to blame because of how their children behave? Is the law partly to blame in how children behave these days? What else can these kids do other than drinking and smoking, they definitely can do  lot.It wont amaze me the next time if I hear that they robbed a bank. Maybe we should accept the fact that there are now no categories such as kids and adults, maybe we are all on the same level since kids also do what adults do. 9 year old kid drinking alcohol and smoking, crazy or what.

Policeman releases Gospel Album

O.M.G was my response when I first saw this headline on the Bulawayo24 News website.After that a series of questions ran around my head, how did he do it?. How can you be a singer and a policeman at the same time?. How did he manage to  balance his his two careers? Is he really from Zimbabwe?.Another thing which amazed me was that the policeman's gospel album is set to be broadcast on the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation. How did he manage to pull through in the music industry and be broadcast because most people who have tried releasing albums in Zimbabwe have been a total failure. Maybe gospel albums are the ones which can be and are successful in Zimbabwe after-all. Is it crazy or what, some people have really all the luck they need.

 

First flirt on Big Brother Mzansi

Crazy things people do outside there for money you would not believe your eyes. Thought these crazy things were done  in American reality shows only but it looks like the disease has spread into Africa particularly Big Brother a leading African reality show. Was watching Big Brother Mzansi the launch yesterday and I could not believe my eyes when I saw a Straight guy, with the capital letter "S", Mandla one of the contestants making a move on a gay guy, Mzamo asking him to "twerk" for him like really, who does that? What Mandla says in his profile is quite different than his actions last night. He said he likes women but after I saw yesterday I doubt he does. The question is did he do that as a publicity stunt to get votes or his "secret" is that he is gay, food for thought we will see as the show progresses. This shows the extent to which people do for money.Crazy or what.
