Hi! Thanks for taking the time to check this book! For this chapter, I'm going to add a few pictures of a school that I go to. These are just from the grounds I was on, our school is obviously bigger, but I'll add more pictures in the next chapter. ❤

The reason I couldn't get all the areas is because people were there and I didn't want to get their faces (and get sued) LOL.
My high school is called "Hoërskool Oosterland". It's in Afrikaans (A second additional language we speak over here)
We also have these columns leading to the office with our values on it, for example, Respect, or Caring.
Below is a picture of two of my classmates, we all call them "the twins", but their real names are
Tshepang and Matshepo.

They're funny, adorable and crazy optimistic. They find the positive in everything.
You can also see our school uniform in the pictures they're wearing. It's a blue blazer with a red jersey and grey pants (or a skirt) and normal black school shoes.
Okay, now I know people who are unfamiliar with South Africa think that were convicts or something (LOL) but were not. The reason we wear school uniforms is not because were in prison.
We wear it because we know how this world changes, popularity has become the latest teenager's obsession, and not everyone can afford to buy new clothes or new jewelry all the time.
So we wear these. It's not like we don't get to wear casual, there are some occasions where we do get to wear it, like the upcoming first of September for example. We pay R10, (One U.S dollar is R13.16) (R=Rands)
So then our money goes to a fund for the homeless, and people without families and we get to wear casual for that one day.
Anyways, tomorrow I will add more pictures. Love you guys!
PS: Here's bag of chips I bought from the tuckshop. Half of it was air. (As per usual) XD

The area in South Africa where I live is called Secunda. It's quite a modern place, a very quiet area though.
