PROFILE
people and my favourite - shopping (chuckles). I like
eating, but I don’t eat a lot. Oh, I love meat by the way
… Facebooking and taking pictures.
Duane: Mainly what I do for fun is gym. From time to
time I do martial arts when I’m home. I write novels, but
just for the fun of it. I spoil my fiancé. I like working with
computers, which is more of a passion. I like learning
Japanese. Generally, I enjoy making people laugh.

Q: What is your favourite television series?
Marilyn: I don’t really have one. But I like Real Husbands of Hollywood. When it comes to animations, it
would be: SpongeBob Squarepants, Powerpuff Girls,
Phineas and Ferb (laughs), I love it and Winx.
Duane: I mostly like anime, but series I do enjoy
watching is Arrow. Also Continuum, which is an action
show about time travel. Animations will be Fairly OddParents and Dexter’s Laboratory.
Q: Your favourite quote
Marilyn: “Every successful person has a story to tell”
heard it while I was in High School – meaning: no person just gets to the top; they have to start somewhere,
at the bottom. A lot of things happen between the bottom and the top.
Duane: “Talk is cheap, money buys the whiskey,
but shut up and get rich” got it from my dad. What it
means: “you have to be quiet, observe what’s going on
around you and work”. Rather than talk big things that
you can do, but none of your actions prove it.

Q: Least favourite module
Marilyn: PSDT (Professional Skills Development) “I
just don’t see why it has to be a requirement” I had Life
Orientation in high school, so if I compare PSDT and
things we did in Life Orientation, it’s the same thing.
Duane: For me it’s two: Statistics, I hate it. And Economics…
Q: Success is…
Marilyn: Inner peace – “Going to sleep every single
night with peace in your heart”, whether you achieved
what you wanted to or not, but because you’ve made
peace with it.
Duane: Being able to see other people being happy
because of what you’ve done – “I never cared about
making a lot of money, as long as the people in my life
are happy, that’s all I need.”
Q: Your role model
Marilyn: A lady I met in some church I was visiting, her
name is Glory. She is a down-to-earth, beautiful lady;
I like how she dresses (laughs). Then, Shareen Shabangu, a friend of mine from High school, she was my
senior in high school. We have a lot in common…
Duane: “This will seem a bit corny” but it’s my mother
– she raised me to be to an honest person, even after
she passed on, she had taught me all the things I
needed to know, even now she is still my role model.
My brother-in-law, I respect him for all he does. Workwise, the person I look up to is my father – his determination and hard work I will always respect.
