TRENDOMETER 2023 Sures

We’re all about good vibes, spreading love, and getting good grades. Re SURE ka everything that makes us happy, healthy, and heavenly. Here is what we will be surrounding ourselves with and what we’ll be accepting in the Lord’s year of 2023

Going private

Social media has become chaotic, mara rona we want to take control of our spaces. Some people out there ga ba re ratele botshelo so we want to stay safe and protect ourselves. One easy way is to go to settings and set our accounts on private. Not all of us are influencers who depend on the public to share our content with the world to gain that engagement and make the bag. So, us just being regular teen girls living our normal lives, 2023 is where we set those boundaries to protect our peace by locking our accounts. Which means, only our families and close friends that we allow to view our content get to do so. There’s no point opening ourselves to getting cyber bullied and dragged online for who we are by strangers and opps! Go private and be your free authentic self on there babe, it’s worth it.

Improving our grades

This year we’re all about pushing ourselves to make sure we safeguard our futures. That starts with taking school seriously and getting good grades. Anything that tries to distract us from achieving our goals, we let go of immediately. Ain’t nobody got time for that sis. So, if wena wa re o sure ka “books before boys…” stay true to yourself with that because that type of distraction can bring forth heartbreak and unnecessary drama into your life. Re batla go enjoya our teen lives with our friends, girlbossing through our education, and learning about who we are before we could mess all that up. It’s time to hit the books and reap the benefits to our focused hard work when it comes. No regrets!

Minding our words

We know people believe in “Free Speech” which we’re also in support of. No one should be silenced from speaking their truth and standing up for what’s right. However, there is a limit to that free speech because the moment you start being racist, misogynistic, colourist, fat-phobic, judgmental, spreading lies… now that’s just being a hater. Rona re shapo ka hate speech. Some people don’t realize that spreading lies by gossiping about others is also a form of bullying. If you find yourself in a situation where your friends start talking about another girl maliciously and being gossipy, step up and let them know it’s not a nice thing to do nor to experience. It’s time we mind our words, what we say to others and about them whether in our own close circles, online, or just anywhere.
