AWSUM Celebrity Interview

Suzelle DIY

AWSUM News caught up with sensational YouTube comedy wondergirl, Suzelle DIY, who has just landed her very own slot on Comedy Central – not bad for a poppie with a hectic wannabe accent and an ever-silent best friend! Suzelle DIY’s YouTube channel has more than 48 000 subscribers and picks up 40 000 views on the day a new episode launches.

Q: Congratulations on the latest feather in your cap – your very own slot on Comedy Central. How does it feel to play in the big league now?

A: I feel like a million rands. It has been a dream come true to watch myself on TV. Q: Who is Suzelle really? Tell us a bit more about yourself – likes, dislikes, favourite movie, favourite song, favourite book.

Page 2

AWSUM NEWS, MAY 2016

A: I’m just a small town girl with a passion for DIY, braaiing and dinner parties. My movie of the moment is the How To Be Single and my favourite book is How to do Just about Everything by The Reader’s Digest.

Q: Why do you think you are so popular? What is your secret to success?

A: I think people like that the DIY in my videos is useful, and that sometimes things go wrong. My secret is to keep going no matter what happens!

Q: What are your top five DIY tips for women like yourself who like to be glamorous and never get their hands dirty while doing the dirty work A: Right, this is a good one. It’s important to always look your best no matter what you are busy doing.

• Wear an apron when you are in the kitchen.

• Use safety goggles when you chop onions to stop your eyes from tearing up and smudging your make-up.

• Run your nails over a bar of soap before you do the gardening. It will keep the dirt from getting under your nails.

• Buy a box of disposable gloves. They are great to use for any DIY project.

• I like to cut up plastic packets and lay them down on my work surface to prevent any mess escaping Q: What do you do for fun and relaxation in your leisure time?

A: I like to go for a coffee with my best friend, Marianne.

I like to watch cooking shows and look for DIY ideas on

the Google.

Q: Other celebrities, across a spectrum, like Nataniël, Hellen Zille, Tim Noakes and Jan-Hendrik, want to be associated with you. Why is that? What do they gain? What do you gain?

A: I think they are just excited to meet me because they want to soak up some of my creativity.

Q: Where do you get your ideas from for your videos? Which episode is your favourite? Why? A: I get my ideas from all sorts of places. I find them on the Google and in magazines. I also get sent a lot of great ideas from my fans. My favourite episode is How to Make a Braai Pie, because that was my first video to go viral.

Q: Are you English or Afrikaans? Who are your biggest fans – English or Afrikaans-speaking people? Why do you think is that so?

A: I’m Afrikaans, but I like to speak in English in my videos so that the peoples overseas can also enjoy the videos. Shame. I think my fans are a real mix of different cultures.

Q: What is the single thing that you enjoy most when creating and crafting a new episode?

A: I love filming it with Marianne and my neighbour Hennie. We always have so much fun together.

Q What DIY message do you have for our readers (parents of schoolgoing children)?

A: Parents, you must teach your kids that their creativity is their number one tool!

Potchefstroom Central School (t) 018 297 3846 (e) pcsadmin@lantic.net Celebrating International Book Day

PCS 92nd birthday

In celebrating International Book Day our Grade 7s spoiled the Grade 1s by bringing them snacks, a blanket to sit on and a book to read.

“Books help weave humanity together as a single family, holding a past in common, a history and heritage, to craft a destiny that is shared, where all voices are heard in the great chorus of human aspiration.”

23 April is a symbolic date for world literature. It is on this date in 1616 that Cervantes, Shakespeare and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega all died. It is also the date of birth or death of other prominent authors, such as Maurice Druon, Haldor K Laxness, Vladimir Nabokov, Josep Pla and Manuel Mejía.

Potchefstroom Central School celebrated our 92nd birthday on 23 April. A Big Walk fundraiser and fun day was held on 22 April with delicious food, snacks and beverages, as well as jumping castles galore, of which the

rocket was a sure favourite. Fun was had by one and all, each class dressed according to a theme and had a war cry and prizes were won, such as cell phones, bicycles, PSPs and cash prizes.

POTCHEFSTROOM HIGH SCHOOL FOR BOYS (t) 018 294 5330 (e) pbhs@iafrica.com High School cricketers compete in India The Heritage Cricket Festival proudly sent a team of top cricketers abroad for the second consecutive year during the past school holidays.

The Festival is an annual event hosted by Potchefstroom Boys’ High each September, where schools from across Potchefstroom are seen participating. This year will be the Festival’s 17th year.

Each year, Potchefstroom schools are invited to participate in this three-day tournament which thereafter a team is selected comprising of the top players. When the 15th birthday was celebrated in 2014 it was decided to take the selected team on a tour to Sri Lanka. As this tour was so successful, it was decided to continue the new tradition.

Last year was the 16th year that the Festival was hosted by Potch Boys High and was organised by Mr Alec Paiva, the sports coordinator for the school. After this Festival that was held in September 2015, the top players were selected to form part of the team that was to travel to India to participate in a series of matches.

The team, arrived back from India on the 1st of May after a successful tour. They played four matches in the cities of Delhi, Napier and Agra. Mr Paiva mentioned, before the tour, that “the boys are extremely excited and are looking forward to the tour as they know how cricket crazy the Indians are.” After the tour he said: “Their expectations were exceeded.

The tour was a huge success and if possible, the boys are now even crazier about their sport!”

Ferdies op toer

waar hul aan die 5de Arthur Johnson Sportweek deelgeneem het. Albei spanne het baie ondervinding as span saam opgedoen en baie goeie resultate behaal.

Die 1ste, 0/15 en 0/14 netbalspanne was ook na Mosselbaai en die 2de-span het aan ‘n toernooi by die PUK deelgeneem. Ferdies poog hiermee om so veel as moontlik blootstelling vir die spelers te gee waardeur

hulle spanwerk en vaardighede ontwikkel word.

Ons 1ste dogters hokkiespan het deelgeneem aan die Nyati hokkieweek. Hulle het baie goed gedoen gedurende die toer en eindig 2de in die finaal. Shanel Potgieter is aangewys as die mees belowende speler en Aidrianne Bartlett as mees belowende doelwagter. Die span het ook die toernooi se geesbeker gewen!

10-step Matric Farewell Checklist 1. The date

By now you should have a date. After receiving the formal event invitation, phone your date and make sure that they save the date!

2. The parents

Your date’s parents might want to meet you. They will appreciate your effort and feel more comfortable sending their son or daughter to the dance with you.

3. The meeting point

Create a central meeting point for all your friends by arranging a cheese and wine event at someone’s house on the day of the farewell. This is the perfect opportunity for last-minute photo shoots with parents.

4. The dress/suit

Have a fitting to make sure that your outfit is still intact, clean and fits perfectly. If not, you still have time to have it cleaned, trimmed or fixed. Remember to take a cocktail dress with for the afterparty!

5. The shoes

Don’t forget the shoes! Wear something that is stylish, complements your outfit and comfortable.

Girls, you should avoid heals that hurt your feet. They can put a serious damper on your evening.

6. The accessories

Add style to your outfit. Get some bling jewellery, a tie that complements your date’s dress or a handbag to carry the essentials.

7. Beauty appointments

Book your hair and make-up appoinments for the morning of your matric farewell. Plan the look you are going for. Be sure to take photos with you to the appointment as examples. You can do your nails earlier the week.

8. The photoshoot

Depending on your budget you can either hire a photographer or have a friend or family member take the photographs. Plan your day so that there is time for taking photographs before leaving for the event.

9. Getting there

The trend is to hire a vehicle for the event – from sports cars to old collector cars – but you can use any method of transport that will get you there on time and looking as fabulous as when you left. A limousine is spacious and can transport a whole bunch of your friends. This is fun for getting excited on the way to the event!

10. The afterparty

Many matric farewells have a official afterparty. They are less formal than the matric farewell, but be sure to check the dress code of the venue beforehand. For the girls a cocktail dress should be fine.

For the guys long trousers, closed shoes and a collared shirt should fit the bill.
