Who is that

This is a very well-known phrase all over the world, and this is officially featuring in my blog J. When we find ourselves saying ‘who is that’, we usually want to find out more about that specific person. Today I have had to ask myself that question, and the answer could only be answered by me (obviously).

Who is that? That is a young-hearted woman, a 22 year old Namibian who wants to be South African, she is a Btech Public Relations Management student at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology and she loves sports, very basic as she is still trying to find that out for herself.

I am the best, I am perfect, and come to think of it the world revolves around me, yes me. With confidence I can say that is exactly who I am not. Firstly, I believe there is no such thing as being the best (you can only be great at doing something) and secondly I know that no-one is prefect (we all have flaws) and thirdly the world revolves around no-one but an axis (that we can’t see) on a daily basis.

Who is that? That is a hard worker, who works well under pressure with taking interest and pride in her work, with a personality to match. That is a loyal team player, passionate about sport of which soccer and inline-hockey are one of her favourites.  That young woman is cheerful, lovable and considers herself as the ‘speak when spoken to’ kind of person.


I believe in basking in the efforts of trying, because there is no such thing as I cannot do it. I firmly believe in work before play, because ‘we reap the seeds we sow’. I believe in doing what we love, as that’s when we do it with meaning. I am afraid of being alone, of failure and although the ones I love will love me for who I am, I’m afraid of disappointing them.

Who is that? That is a young Namibian woman would like to be seen as a smart  goal-driven independent woman, who is a successful public relations practitioner for sports teams or even sports brands. That is someone who does not want to stop learning from inspiring people the world of sports and in the field of PR.

That is who I am.

  1. I think its great, its carried the message of introduction across, however, i think as a young student, we commonly look at the content and not the flow of the Blog. The statement, then the reason, then the conclusion. Still i think its great. The more you write, the better it becomes.
    Feizel Matthews. looking forward to the next 100 blogs

  3. I love this...especially the opening statement, it caught my attention. I think your writing style has lots of character. If this was a sports ad for running shoes or soccer boots i would definitely want a pair of those because then i can say This Is Me... You will make a great PR.

  7. A certain fragility and tenderness comes across in your chosen picture and expressions, yet the steely determination that underlies it all is also clear.

    Creates an honest-sounding picture - something that will be invaluable in your future PR career.

    May you continue learning as you grow!
