Happy Birthday Tumelooo!

This post is long overdue.

About eleven years to be exact. 

Anyone who knows me knows that my best friend is Tumelo. Applications closed. 

We've been going steady since primary school (what you know 'bout that son!) and high school was really just the Tum + Heat show for me. Enter the 'real world' and she's been makin' me a proud mama bear and I can't wait to see what happens next.

I have avoided doing a post about her given the fact that there is too much love to capture. 

How do I even begin to encapsulate the person who showed me at age 12 that there are people like 'us', who want, believe and care about the things that I alone used to toil with when my B.T (Before Tumelo) friends would say something which would make me quietly hate people and society in general..

The person who can make me laugh so hard and so deeply that my cheeks burn and I continue smiling long after the joke has passed, actually, the joke never passes with us, we still laugh about the same things. 

This person when not making me laugh like an obese witch makes me feel sane (somewhat) and understood (fully). 

This person is my own person Jesus (stay with me), being a heathen I often ask myself, rather wisely I think, what would Tumelo do? 

Basically, she's thee best. Total package Tumz.

Happiest Birthday Beet! Phezulu! I got nothing but love for you!
