Here’s to you! | FEVA

Got the writer/reader in me ticking again, thinking broadly, giggling and even tearing-up. They gave me writing to look up to, down and sideways at, but ultimately conclude that I have been extremely fortunate to have such impassioned writers to admire and grow with. October 30, 2014.

Whatever Lights Your Fire. The matric dance – ritual or ridiculous? Teenagers are disgusting. It is not really their fault it simply is a revolting time. It is no-one’s intention; there is no specific menace to pinpoint. It just. A period of terrible change. It’s the dress rehearsal for your wedding, you know!

Initiation – My Matric Dance | FEVA

https://evaeuijen.wordpress.com/2014/10/01/my-matric-dance-experience

Whatever Lights Your Fire. Initiation – My Matric Dance. I try to smile at the figure in the mirror, but she just stares. Waves of white fabric wash around her. I tell her she looks pretty. Her expression is disbelieving, far from bridal. It is steeled. The invitation said 18:00. It is now 18:23 and I am a snow-beast. 8 hours to go. I have another fitting, an hour later another. Before going to the next one around lunchtime, a begrudging classmate agrees to tag along. He has a suit but needs ...The girls...

Spring Day | FEVA

https://evaeuijen.wordpress.com/2014/09/01/spring

Whatever Lights Your Fire. 8220;Spring has sprung, the grass is riz. I wonder where the birdies is.”. My Spring Day treat – sitting in the sun and drinking in the September freshness. For you wandering by, here is a cup of tea accompanied by my favorite poem (I know it’s impossible to have. Really, but this one has remained prominently inscribed on my mind).
