My life

1 year old:
- Took my first wobbly steps in the dusty backyard, chasing after my dad’s bakkie like it was a Springbok on the run.
- Developed a knack for throwing toys with pinpoint accuracy, hinting at my future rugby prowess.

3 years old:
- Mastered the art of “braai-side commentary,” babbling epic tales about boerewors and chops to amused family members.
- Started building mini sandcastles (and destroying them), showing early signs of my love for chaos and creation.

6 years old:
- Kicked off my school years with a bang, charming teachers with my cheeky grin and excelling in art (mostly drawing bakkies).
- Took to the rugby field like a veld fire, tackling kids twice my size with reckless abandon.

9 years old:
- Built my first “bakkie” out of scrap wood and old tyres, racing it down hills and earning the nickname “Dust Devil.”
- Got hooked on fishing at the local dam, spending hours trying to outsmart the wiliest catfish.

12 years old:
- Discovered gaming and became a legend in the local internet café, dominating LAN parties with my strategic flair in shooters.
- Started helping out at community braais, flipping chops with a swagger that made the aunties swoon.

15 years old:
- Modded my first virtual bakkie in a racing game, spending hours tweaking suspensions and paint jobs for max style.
- Became a junior rugby hero, known for my bone-crunching tackles and never backing down from a scrum.

18 years old:
- Graduated high school with a reputation for being the guy who could fix anything—bakkies, PCs, or broken braai tongs.
- Landed a sponsorship for a regional esports tournament, proving I could dominate both on the field and in the virtual arena.

21 years old:
- Built a real-life bakkie modding empire, turning rusty old Toyotas into beasts that roared through the Northern Cape.
- Represented South Africa in an international gaming showdown, trash-talking opponents in Afrikaans for extra flair.

25 years old:
- Living large on the edge of the Kalahari, balancing my love for braais, rugby, gaming, and bakkie mods with a devil-may-care attitude.
- Inspiring the next generation to chase their dreams, whether it’s landing a perfect tackle, a headshot, or the ultimate braai sear.
