Umbono: Ubuwazi ukuthi uSean "Umbango Omnyama" UWallace ungotshani ongathanda ukubhekana nalo uma unikezwe ithuba? Noma lapho umncintiswano we-masterchef u-Alvin QuA wethule isidlo senkukhu esidakwa kubahluleli, kwaba umuzwa we-Intanethi futhi wabangela ukushoda kwewayini le-shaoting e-Australia?
Emuva ngama-20s ami, ngabe ngiwuchithile umqondo wokuba umsuka kangaka emgodini we-minutiae wombukiso wamaqiniso wamahhala.

Kepha ayikho kule miqondo engingenze ngaye noma yini ngaphandle kokuvalwa. Umqondo wokuhlala efulethini elivuzayo eDunedin futhi ubuke umbhangqwana osemusha ebhulokini ukhethe phakathi kwethusi noma ithusi le-doorknobs libukeka njenge-overkill.

Kepha kule minyaka embalwa edlule, konke sekushintshile. Ngiqala ukuthanda okungokoqobo kukhombisa. Ngakhumbula ekuqaleni kunguquko yami kusuka ekubuzeni okunobuthi obunobuthi obunobuthi bunobuthi bunobuthi obukhulu obukhulu obungu-30 ubudala nothando olusha lwezindlela zokupheka zesifunda zesifunda. Kodwa-ke, ekuboniseni, ngabona ukuthi bekuyinto ethile.
Into enhle ngeminyaka embalwa edlule ye-Hellishish kube ukusetshenziswa kabanzi komsebenzi okukude. Lokhu kusho ukuthi akuwona amahembe amancane kuphela, kepha isikhathi somndeni esengeziwe e-Timaru. Kukhona okuthile okukhethekile ngokuzivumela ukuthi uvumelane kahle enkambisweni yomndeni wakho futhi ukwazisa izinto ezincane okungenzeka ukuthi uzikhohliwe noma kungenzeka ukuthi awukaze uzibone ohambweni lwempelasonto e-hectic. Lezi zinto ezincane engizaziyo? Uqagele. Imibukiso ebusuku kwi-TV yomndeni. Kimina, nansi inqubo efanayo njengokuphuza itiye ngemuva kokudla. Umthombo ozinzile, othembekile wenjabulo yesandla yesibili.
Okwaqala njengoba ukwamukelwa kwami ​​kokuphambuka kwaphenduka ngokushesha ukutshala imali okugcwele. Wake wawubona owesilisa okhulile ukhale nge-omelette ephekwe ngokuphelele?

Kuyiqiniso, ngiyazi ukuthi le mibukiso yakhelwe ukuthinta izinhliziyo zami futhi icindezele izinkinobho zokuzwela, kepha ngandlela thile ngicabanga ukuthi ngivele ngadela, wanquma ukungikhathaza futhi wanquma ukusebenzisa wonke amandla ami okugxeka. Khohlwa. Konke. Thola induduzo ekuguquguqukeni okuhle. Manje senginenye iBridge Home, yize ngingezelwa. Ngingaba nesithukuthezi noma ngidabukile ngakolunye uhlangothi lompheki, chofoza umsakazo wakudala wamahhala ihora, bese uxoxa nabazali bami ngokujaha kokugcina. Akekho owaziyo ukuthi iLake Baikal eSerbia yichibi elijulile emhlabeni, noma litshele udadewethu ukuthi angizange ngilindele ukuthi uChris Parker adwengulwe, noma agijime abe muhle kakhulu olwandle ngefosholo.
Naphezu kokunciphisa kancane kancane kancane, angisilo isiwula esiphelele. Angikakwazi ukungilethela ukunakekela ukuhlobisa noma ukuhlela kabusha ikhaya lami, futhi ngisathengisa ukunambitheka kwami ​​kwe-TV komuntu wangempela. Kepha njengoba ngikhula futhi ngizithola ngichitha isikhathi esengeziwe kude nasekhaya, ngithola induduzo yokuthi umndeni wami usazosondelana embhedeni ngemuva kokuchitha usuku lwawo ubukele indlela yalo yokugcina noma kwesinye isizini. Ukudansa nezinkanyezi sekuzoqala futhi ngethemba lapho ngikhona, ngizoba.
