"I dropped out of university cause it was making things worseand I genuinely believe if I can re-do matric and get the marks that I know can get …things will be better for me both mentally and emotionally."
Her decision was not something that she took overnight. The TikTokker has been talking about returning to school but mainly asking for assistance regarding school uniforms and stationery.
The constant thought of not wanting to be sad anymore is what motivates her every day. Her mother, partner, friend, and TikTok fans have also been a strong support system for her.
She said she doesn't regret her decision, and is probably one of the best decisions she has ever made. To the people who are afraid to go back to school, the young lady said they must do it.
"Just go back….there’s nothing to lose but there’s a lot to gain…..I’d say they should listen to their inner voice….and act one it."
The event unfolds at a time when learners are getting their matric results that will determine their fate.
