Back To Basics: Getting To know Xolile

Well my name is Cassandra, that is my official name and I am nineteen years old. I was raised by my mum and granny at a village called Umgababa ( south of Durban). Growing up I didn't have any siblings, my mum only had other children when she met my step father and decided to extend our family. I'm now privileged enough to have a sister and a brother and we all live together in Ridgeview Gardens like a real family. To be honest growing up without a father did have its minor blows but I would be unappreciative if I say that I had a tough upbringing, It wasn't smooth sailing but it was memorable even though my father wasn't around. throughout my childhood my mother has been the backbone of my daily existence. she has been strong enough to raise me in such a way that I could hardly feel that my father wasn't there. I am a firm believer in God and I believe that we owe him all the praise for everything that he has done for us. well I hope that I have summarised an understandable version of the real me cheers...
