1. SWIM LESSONS
As a child Makunda and his brother would chase the village's herd of Nguni cattle into the river to allow them to get rid of the pesky flies that usually accompanied the summer heat. Makunda learned how to swim by following the cattle into the water and clinging to their backs to avoid being drowned by the rushing waters and massive animals. Now he loves to swim. He can often be found in the ocean or lagoons on Fox Estate just doing laps in the water.
2. PHYSICAL
Makunda is very lanky but does not feel uncomfortable in his body. This is due to his traditional roots, the Batwasi people lived very close to the earth meaning that they seldom wore clothes or had any access to modern luxuries. This means that he was raised knowing his body is nothing to be ashamed of and that it should be used to its best potential.
3. PASSIONATE SPEAKER
He is also very very comfortable with speaking about his passions and sharing knowledge that he has acquired in his lifetime. Rather than physically complete a difficult task you are struggling with for you, he will calmly talk you through the problem until a solution is found. HOWEVER he will not be the first to speak. English is Makunda's third language and is therefore not the easiest for him to speak, he is more than happy to listen to conversations or even just be present in his own mind.
4. EXITING AS BROWN BREAD
Even though Makunda had a rich and adventurous history growing up in a traditional village, he is not an exiting person. He spends his days reading and working calmly with his animals. His idea of exitement is running an extra kilometer or finding something that was previously lost.
5. COMPETATIVE
Makunda and Hashiim tend to go running together very often, from this Makunda has learned that he is competitive. Not to such an extent that it is obvious, but he likes being a step ahead, and being the first to complete a task. He likes to be the best but only as an accomplishment for himself.
6. LOVE LIFE
The man a whole lot of love to give, but he doesn't do it easily and he doesn't do it often. He doesn't believe in love at first sight, soulmates, or in "the one" (
here's looking at you Hashiim). He feels that love comes with time, a person can learn to love another if there is mutual respect and understanding.
7. FOODIE
Makunda lives with Gabriel, Hashiim and Emine (Hashiim's girlfriend) in a three bedroom house on Fox Estate. Gabriel has not interest nor ability to kook and Hashiim only eats flavourless chicken breasts and sweet potatoes and his girlfriend only makes the same meals over and over. When the duty of preparing the food fell on Makunda he had no particular feelings towards cooking, however from there it grew into a true passion.
8. ANIMAL LOVER
Not only does he loves animals, but animals love him! They are drawn towards his calm personality. Gabriel's cat,
Chat, absolutely adores Makunda and can most often be found chilling with him in the study by the window seat.

1. LOVE LIFE
Hashiim has met his soulmate, her name is Chanda. A big misunderstanding between them drove them apart. Hashiim is desperately trying to replace the loneliness with whomever he can find. His current girlfriend is Emine (eh-muh-nhey), she makes him happy, but she cannot replace his one true love...
2. PHYSICAL
He is incredibly tall and incredibly fit. He is a big man who
loves working out and eating healthy and looking after himself. Healthy body = healthy mind. He does get his days where he splurges and goes all out, but he does not feel guilty about them because he knows he will work it off again.
3. BROTHERLY
Hashiim is the big brother you always wanted but never had. He will protect all his friends and other people who are facing bullies. He loves hugs and being close to others. If anyone ever needs a friend he is there to help. He also has a talent for spotting when a person (girl or boy) is being harassed or is uncomfortable with the situation they are in. He steps in to help. He will fight if need be, but it usually doesn't come to that because they are either afraid of fighting a tank or his charming personality makes them apologize for ever being born.
4. A LITERAL COUCH
Because of his large stature accompanied by such a social and friendly personality, he does sometimes end up being too in your space, and comes off as imposing. BUT HAVE NO FEAR he is the human equivalent of a family sized couch that has been used for generations. He LOVES being leaned on and sat on and just being used as furniture.
5. EXUDES POSITIVE ENNERGY
When you are around Hashiim you cannot help but feel motivated and positive and loved. He never has a bad thing to say about anyone and is always ready to help with any task.
6. HIDES THE SAD
It might not always seem like it, but Hashiim does carry a lot of sadness and anger with him. He will not show it and will not talk about it, but it is there. He does not like to be alone with his thoughts.
HE FOUND AND LOST HIS SOULMATE FOR GOODNESS SAKE HAVE PITY ON THE POOR MAN. This is why he always has a girlfriend even if there is no real romantic interest.
7. SPORTY ACTIVE
His choice in clothing is anything with a brand name on it intended for use in sports. Oh you where planning a romantic evening at a fancy restaurant requiring formal attire? Think again. The only person he would change his look for is Chanda and she doesn't tell him what to do anymore, (though he wishes she still did).
8. GABRIEL?
He has had some thoughts about getting with Gabriel if we're being honest (though who hasn't, she is an absolute catch). But he knows better than that. He knows it's just because of loneliness and the fact that something about her reminds him of Chanda.

1. Cannot dress herself properly. Her look can be classified as
"5 year boy who is allowed to dress himself in whatever he wants, including his aunt's 80's wardrobe."
2. Very emotional but does not know how to express them properly so they tend to be very confusing to other people.
3. She picks up other peoples habits and mannerisms very easily, good ones and bad ones. She once spent over a month trying to stop winking after talking to new people.
4. CAMERA HOG - she loves being in photos and will pose in random people's photos. She will also pull anyone in close proximity to join her.
5. Her weight fluctuates from very high to very low very easily, this is not because of poor diet or conscious dieting, it's just something that happens.
6. Asexual and Aromantic. BUT this does not mean that she doesn't get crushes or gets infatuated or intrigued sometimes. She just loses interest very fast.
7.
"Please don't touch my hair." | "Yes, it's my real hair." | "No, I'm not going to get it cut." | "Yes, I look like Rapunzel." | "I asked please not to touch my hair, its weird and its gross and your hands are probably dirty."
8. She is very honest in her opinions and knows exactly what she wants and doesn't want, this tends to make her seem like she is shallow.
