Firstly i like the way i am because i know that i am special and unique.some people out there adore me same applies to me i love them.Sometimes i just asks myself why did God bring me to this world but this is the question that i understand maybe there are other people who also asks themselves the same thing but i can only say to answer my question God created and brought me to this World for the purpose.He would not create me if he does not love me.I am this kind of person who grew up with out her parents and this kind of person who get hurtled easy.we are the 5 children of married parents I'm the last born.We are all sisters i have no brother.My parents died when i was at the age of 3 years by car accident so i grow up with my eldest sister and her husband.They are now my parent because they do everything for me thou they have their kids but i'm also part of them,they are always auxilliry to me,they make sure that i do not go to bed with empty stomach.they are my everything that's how i call them,my bright shining stars their middle and that the kind of parents i have .and i am very proud of them,i love them very much.Things out there happened and these things hurt a lot,people disappointing their parents and their loved ones but i just want to thank God for being the person i am and i love myself for that.In the year of 2010 i was involved in a car accident my bones were fractured,both arms and the collar bone but i survived.During the year of 2011 i was doing metric and i could not go to the farewell because of financial problems but i blame no one because i know the situation of my home and i know that somewhere somehow God will make a plan,he will get me out of this.And the only thing that can help me is to pray in the main thing.At the beginning of this year i was doing nothing but someone help me a taught me about chrysalis so i decided to came to chrysalis i am now still here but next year i am looking forward to study fether.i already applied at S.T Georges College in Port Elizabeth for the paramedic course.

Life is not always easy but I try to make the best of it. I believe what we learn, and we can only learn by doing it as a person.
No matter how big your storms are there will always be sunshine
It started all on the 05/08/1989 when my mother gave birth to me and I was born in Mitchell's Plain, Lentegeur day clinic at 2:20. We then stayed in Mitchell's Plain until I was 6 years old then we moved to my mother's birth place, Prince Albert in the Karoo that's where the story of my life started.
In 1996 I went to school at Prince Albert Primary. I got diplomas from grade 1 up to grade 7. I then decided to go to Bridgton Senior Secondary school in Oudtshoorn for standard 7. I had a good year there, but missed home to much, so I decide to finish the year there and then went back to Prince Albert. I then went to school at Zwartberg High. In standard 9, we went to Cape Town for a weekend with the school, we then visited Robben Island, Table mountain and the Holocaust museum. It was a good experience for me and I finished matric in 2007 at Zwartberg High that was the happiest day of my life because everything worked out just the way I wanted it to be. I was so nervous about the end exams but finally did good and just a week after I finished with my exams my grandmother suddenly passed away and that was the saddest part for our family because she was the pillar in the family. In 2009 I felt pregnant and I was very excited about my child that is growing in me and I wished that it would be a boy, but then on the 22 November 2009 at 1:10 I gave birth to a beautiful 7 month old girl. On 3 months my daughter, Zonay got very sick and the doctors didn't know what was wrong with her. Six months later they found out that she had a heart problem and on 8 months they operated her at Red Cross Hospital and the saddest part of all I turned 21 on the day she was operated. That was not the end of the world for as long as my daughter get out of the theatre alive and healthy. Today she is the most precious thing that happened in my life and I love her so much.
In 2013 I started to look after my grandfather before he was diagnosed with cancer. I enjoyed it a lot to stay with him, he teached me a lot of things that I don't know. Then cancer spread all over his body and that was the worst time of my life. I always ask myself how can a strong person like him get sick and so sick that he cant do anything for himself, so myself and my sister was doing everything for him. He got worst very fast and died after 5 months suffering of pain. I miss him so much and if it wasn't for him that forced me to come to Chrysalis then I wouldn't be here today. And that is the story of my life and don't tell your god how big your storms are, tell your storms how big your GOD is.

My River of Life
My name is Aphiwe Samantha Jacobs, 24 years old. Living in a small town separated near Cape Town. A life can change anytime when unexpected and the worst can happen. You have to stay strong because what doesn't kill you will only make you stronger and that's how I learned to put things behind me.
I am Aphiwe Samantha Jacobs, I was born in 1989 August 07 in a placed called Worcester. I live with my mom and my older brother, my mom is a housewife and my brother is not working at the moment. I lived with my mother, father, my brother and I'm the last born of four. My father that time was a truck driver and he will even spend the longest period of 6 months not at home but he would be in contact with my mother just to hear on how we are doing, he loved us so much especially my brother because he was the one and only son he had. I grew up in the location went to primary up until I was done with the primary, went to multiracial high school in 2003 and that was my first year in high school. In 2003 April 11, I lost my father in a truck accident that cost him his life and left us fatherless. I didn't get a chance to get to know my father that much, i didn't even have a bond with sometimes i even miss him but that's all life, that's were my life started to change. Four years after that we went to the location high school because my mother couldn't afford the school fees anymore as my father was the breadwinner so we agreed on that. My first day was a disaster at Vusisizwe Secondary Senior School( Awakening the nation) in 2006, because i was not used to the way the students were doing things in the assembly it was way too different. We studied up until matric in 2009 but we didn't make it for the National Senior Certificate. Two years later I worked at BOKOMO FOODS factory just to help my mother in the house and I was the only one working that time. I started working in 2011 May up until 2013 August before i came to Chrysalis Academy in 07 September 2013. Come 2014 I want to become a Nurse and for me nursing it's not a course but a call or a Social Worker, that's what I want to become in life.
I want to make my mother proud because she had make me proud as her daughter. She raised me struggling day after day but she stayed strong playing a role of being a mother and the father at the very same time.

my river of life
my name is ziyanda Portia Tontsi i'm 22 years old i'm going to tell you about who I am and the way I brought up by a single parent after the death of my father at an early age.
I was born on the 14th of may in 1991 at Kayamandi stellenbosch( in boland) I spent most of my life there,we are a family of 5 older sister whose now married, a younger sister, my mother and son. my father passed away in 2001 at that time i was about 10/11 years old and was in grade 4.
I started my primary school in 1997-2004 at ikhaya primary situated at kayamandi, in 2005 I started high school at Kayamandi high and passed my matric in 2010 with a diploma. Relationship wisely I started dating when i was 15 years old and I'm still with the same guy from then and now we both 22 we have a baby boy,who I gave to on the 7th of July 2012, my pregnancy was not easy because I had all kinds of illness and I gave birth on the 10th month going to 11th one but my baby came out healthy and strong.
I started my higher education at Northlink college doing public management its native course. I passed my N4 and 5 and couldn't continue with my N6 because of financial problems and the pregnancy.I stopped attending school after they were closed in June because early July i had a baby and i had to a stay at mom for few months, but went back January of 2013 to do the next level then quit because of funds and my mother at that time really struggled to keep me in school but she tried her best. And that was not the end, I applied at Chrysalis academy and my request was considered now I'm doing office administration and I'm liking it. My future plan is to go to varsity and study more if that doesn't workout i'll be looking for any kind of clerical work to support my family especially my mother and son they mean the world to me.
I strive to make better future for myself so that I can support my family and be good mother and a inspiration to my son. And also show other young mothers like me that having a child is not the end of your life but the start to have a purpose for life..

My life
My name is Debora Cazi. I`m from Riversdale, I`m 19 years old and i`m a very friendly person ,but if you get me on my wrong side,I get angry very quickly...Something very strange happened to me Thursday morning, the 18th of October,and I just want to tell what happened.
Some of the students of 13Bravo who chose office administration in their skill phase went to class that spesific morning.We played an activity and the activity was about they give you a picture and then out of that picture you must create a story.When it came to me to add a sentence about that picture,my face and my whole body just got hot.I suddenly forgot what I wanted to say and one of the ladies of Rlabs asked if I want to go drink water, so I went and go drink water.....I really didn`t know what happened to me.Something like that never happened to me before.After that I realised that I`m a really shy person and I don`t like to participate in something and I don`t like to do something in front of a lot of people.I decided that i can`t go so on anymore and i realised that i don`t want to be that person anymore, I want to become a better person, because if I`m going to stay that person I won`t come far in life.My grandmother always tell me that i must come out of that comfort zone and I didn`t listened to her and I didn`t take note of what she said,but now I realized that she told the truth and I really want to become a better person,I want to pull up my socks and want to make a difference in my community.After class,one of my friends told me that I was busy to have a panic attact because that was some of the signs of a panic attack.....I fell a bit emotional after what happened to me and I think I really need help so that I can change my life because I don`t want to stay that person.I want to achieve my goals and I want to make my family proud.
I hope i will be a better person,make myself proud,won`t be that quiet girl and won`t be just a follower.Like Couch Vermeulen told me,i need to join the party....i think his right,i must join the party and that`s a big MUST.i believe in myself that i will be a better person in the end of the day.

I went to Sundrige Primary School and my grade 1 teacher's name was Miss Booysen, and I was never scared of going to school i loved school.At 2006 i went to the hoer school, Knysna Secondary School,i was so exited to go to school.but I started to date and going to party's and had lots of friends, but i always did well at school. In 2010 i did my matric in my matric year I mett a boyfriend at that time i think i where in-love so I do alot of things to fit in.I started to smoke dagga just for the fun and stay away from home every weekend so i failed my matric but i do have alot of good memories of it I went to the farewell party and I have lots of fun, but my life did not stand still in 2011 I did a ECD course it was fun, I volunteered at a creche call Bongani Pre School i love working with children.In 2012 I fell pregnant and I stoped working I gave birth to my sweet little baby boy on 03/01/2013, I have no regrets and the fact that I am a mother because I love my child me and his daddy are not together anymore and that hurt me a lot because I always say I want to marry the father of my child, but we have a good relationship and he is a good father to his son that is all that count for me.

This story is about a young girl with a bright future ahead of her,but things were about to happen in her life that she was not expecting,her world was about to be turned upside down,but it was time for her face the truth.
I am a 25 year old woman now,strong and very loud and also very proud,but it took me a few years to get to this place. I was born in 1988.I had such a blessed life from the word go.I had anything and everything my heart desired. I still have two very loving parents,whom I am still living with. I have two sisters,both married,but we still have a very close relationship with each other.
After matriculating in 2006 from Schoonspruit Secondary School in Malmesbury. I applied myself and stated studying at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology. I persuade my dream of becoming a teacher,it was a 4 year course. I've always loved working with children and this was something close to my heart,it was my dream job and it was perfect because I love to help children. After my third year of attendance,I met someone very special or at least that's what I thought at the time. He was a perfect gentlemen,he was kind,loving,caring,protecting. So in my eyes he was the perfect man for me,he had all the attributes I always look for in a person.
I fell very fast and hard for that man,I did everything and more for him.I put myself 2nd even 3rd when it came to him.After a few years of being together,he introduced me to a very dark world,a world I would never ever want to be associated with. I was so confused at the time and he told me so many things and of course I believed him or everything he promised me,that was only the begining of my hardship with that man. I was caught up in that world for such a long time,I didn't know how to get out.Our relationship started fading before my eyes,he started abusing me emotionally and later it started getting physical. A lot happened after that I can't even describe what I went through,but I will reveal more soon...
Life kind of hits you when you least expect it,in ways you could never have imagined,but it takes a strong and very dedicated person to rise above that and look ahead and start fresh. It is up to you if you want to learn from your mistakes,your hardship and the problems you've had in the past to become a better person in everything you do in life.

THE RIVER OF MY LIFE.
It has the start that is much easier to get in, but when you are so near inside you look back just to measure how far are you, and if its better to continue crossing it or you rather go back because of its deepness! never the the less its just about do it or not by just deciding.
In my life from being a small kid, i think i was brave enough and my family believed in me especially my grandmother.But as i grew up i met challenges that changed me a lot,from 1998 the time my grandmother passed away, it made a huge difference in my life, because
i was not used in my biological parents as they were staying here in Cape town, we were in Eastern Cape by that time.So as we are five children and i am the last born we had to split,others came here in Cape town to stay with my father and me and my brother we went to stay with my grandmother's sister where life started to be sour.In 2000 we also came here in Cape town to stay with my father although things didn't go the way we thought,we find our father staying with another woman who became our step mother and we didn't had a choice we had to accept her and love her for the sake of our father,but one thing that tormented us is that, the respect and love that we gave her she never return it back, instead she treated us in a badly and abusing way.In 2003 we made means of investigating our biological mother and we find her, that was the day started to declare the happiness and peace in ourselves.
So as we were in high hopes by the time we find our mother, we were saying NO MORE SUFFERING, guess what we seemed like we were dreaming for all the time we were picturing ourselves with her, because she never show the love we needed from the the day we meet her,but life moved on and now we are no longer focusing on that, we are just working on what can rebuild us or bring back the unity to the whole family not on one side family and there no grudges, we are looking forward for happy moments we also believe that TIME is the best HEALER because those hardships made us strong today

And buy the time i was suppose to go to the farewell bcouse i was leaving that school to high school my grandfather died on a day before the farewell and i was so disappointed and vulnerable because i was so close to my grandfather so it was such a terreble time fore me but never the less i managed to get through that.
then i went to high school and it was so terrible for me because i had to make new friend and my school mates were a bit older than us and i was scared that they might bully us, but none of that happened they were so nice to us even though the were some of them who were kind of naughty because by the time i was i was in grade 9 i was burned with a lighter in my hair by the guy i did know but luckily my friends saw him and they quickly stop the burning on my hair that was the most tragic part of my life in high school.
in 2007 my father was retrenched at work and now we were having problems at home financially and emotionally so i decided to get myself part time job on school holidays and i was in grade 9 buy then and that's what i was doing to help my family up until metric, but i did not make it in grade12
And now i decided to focus on myself and do what i need to do in order to survive in life, re-write my metric and go to University to study more because i wanna be a social worker so that i will take care of other people who are suffering in life, i just wanna change someones life even if its one person because i know God will bless me for that

I am a Overcomer:)!!!!!
My name is Carmen Plaatjies and I am from Ashton. I'm 18 years going on 19 years old. When people look at me they'll see a very caring,loving,friendly and most importantly always smiling person..Some people might even say my life is easy because I get everything I want and I still have both my parents...What they don't know is that under my smile there is a lot of heartache and a girl with a broken heart.....
The first heartbreaking story started when I was about 15 years old.I can still remember it like it was yesterday...My innocence was stolen from me by two men which I knew every well.They were friends of my cousins.My cousins was also in the room while these two men were busy raping me.I kept on calling out their names but they wouldn't do anything..They just stood there and stared at me while I was yelling and begging them to help me.I was crying my eyes out...A man that was walking pass the house were it happened heard me and came to my rescue.He called the police and the policeman that showed up was a family friend.He took me home and left so that I can tell my family what happened.The saddest part is when I told my father he got really angry at me and started to attack me.I got beaten so badly that I thought I was going to die...Anyway I survived the first story of my life but maybe I didn't took the second story so well....there is still lots more to tell but it will have to wait....FOR NOW.......
I thought that I won't be strong enough to handle being raped and I really wanted to give up on my life but God made it possible for me to survive whet happen....And he made it possible to keep on smiling to avoid people knowing the pain I went through......

My experience
My name is samarihetta and my surname is Jantjies and I am 21 years old. I just want to share my latest experience here at Chrysalis.
I was very scared and nerves on the first day. But as time go i meet a friend who gives me the power to carry on.Somedays you just feeel to go home but then u relize its for your own best and there is a family that you do it for and what me the most inspire is that song that say that no body told that the road would be easy.Iam done with the 2 weeks outdoor believe me that it was not easy but i do it with all the power i had it just take a believer to be a achiever .
Here at Chrysalis I became a stronger person and I also learned stuff that I dont know and it feels good to know that u dont even know anyone at first. Now we are a big family, all of us go through the same stuff and no one is better than the other because we are all sisters. I never knew that I can walk so far or even sleep in a bush outside but thanks to Chrysalis I overcame my fears.
There are just a few weeks left before graduation and I will give my everything to make history here because I really enjoy things here and I like the skills.
My first day of intake at chrysalis academy
My three months away from home im so sad about leaving.Me and my mommy on our way to chrysalis academy on Saturday morning the 7 of September 2013.
The Friday of the 6 September everything went quick.Me and my mommy went from shopping center to shopping center to buy all the things i still need for my three months course.At that moment i was not that emotional even though i was leaving the next morning.Sjo my family treated me very special like a queen that Friday.I can actually see that my mommy was very emotional about the leaving and it was my first time leaving home for three months all on my own.At the night of the 6th of September my mommy was packing my bag while i was busy taking a long relax-able bath and washing my hair.Me and my mommy went to sleep at 23:00 that night and we must get up at 03:00 the next morning.The two of us spend some quality time together that night.The morning of the 7 September i wake up with a smile but actually very emotional because i'm not a fan of goodbyes,saying goodbye to my daddy and sister was very sad.We are on our way with the taxi my tears are falling.As we get to the academy i get more and more emotional.Because i didn't know how to interact with 180 other girls i don't really know.
And so my mommy must give me off to chrysalis academy.Sjo i was crying and wanted to go home with my mommy again.Ai and today im missing my family so badly im looking forward to see them on Sunday at the first visitation even though Sunday seems so far away.

A life changing experience
My name is Nasreen Latief. I am 25years old and live in Paarl. I am a mother of a 5year old boy and 11month old girl. My children are my pride and joy and I strive to give them a bright future.
I am currently unemployed and stay with both my parents. On 7th September 2013 I enrolled in the Chrysalis Academy program where I'm doing a 3month course in order to improve my life skills. Chrysalis Academy specialize in changing the lives of the youth to the better by unleashing their potential in order for them to be successful young people. The academy plays a huge role in empowering, motivating, disciplining and changing the living circumstances of the students.
At first coming to Chrysalis was a challenge to me, but I started adapting to the program and I feel proud of my progress. I'm following a healthy diet and became physically fit. I am stronger mentally and emotionally and I became aware and mindful about things happening in my life and environment. All of us students stay on the campus as the academy are extremely strict and have alot of rules we need to follow and obey. I haven't seen my kids in the past 6weeks and I miss them to bits! It's hard being separated from them, but I'm sacrificing in order for them to have the stability and security they need.
I am in the middle of my course and yet I have seen big changes within myself. I feel empowered and positive. I have the potential to a brighter future!

Now I urge you 13 Bravo to make a right choice.stay away from wrong things.become an expect at saying No.This is for your sake,for my sake,for somebody's sake and everybody's sake.Let us choose chrysalis
A Dance
It feels good...
To move, to dance across the floor;
a dance just for me.
A dance that leaves behind a trail...
A trail that means so much more than the eye can see or mind can know but only the heart will feel as it remembers all the emotions of good and bad wonderful and sad...
Memories
...Memories of what life gave and took away or just the mear thoughts
But now as I makes my way towards the end before I go I let you know, that no matter what that has come your way you will end up strong anyway.
