Rhodes Confessions 2024

#RhodesConfessions202311975 To Azile Ngoqo, As I sit down to write this note to you, I'm filled with a mix of emotions - admiration, appreciation, and a hint of shyness. From the moment I stepped foot on the Rhodes University campus, I've had the pleasure of noticing you, and I must confess, you've left an indelible mark on my heart. Your radiant smile, your infectious laughter, and your unwavering passion for life have drawn me in, making me wish I could get to know you better. But this note isn't about trying to win your heart or asking you out; it's simply about acknowledging the beauty you bring to our campus community. As we embark on a new year, I hope this year brings you unparalleled happiness, success, and growth. May your dreams take shape, and may your spirit continue to soar. Wishing you a beautiful year ahead, Azile. May it be filled with love, laughter, and all your heart's desires. Warm regards. Anon.

#RhodesConfessions202311974 Hey guys 🥺❤️I just need a friend that loves to groove ❤️bored babe kuyaBora apha😭😭 3rd year BA babe🥺

#RhodesConfessions202311973 Hey. I need advise. Rhodes has sent me to Debt Trackers saying i'm a graduate and need to pay my outstanding fees. I failed my third year, got financially excluded and now i work. I owe fees from years where i did not have financial aid. Does any one have any advise on what i can do in this matter because i am not a graduate, i've been out of school for a while now. Oeople always tell me to speak to the right people but i do not know who to speak to in all honesty. And since this is a sad story i'm always so scared of talking to just anyone who will just pitty me or explain the exact details because i'm ashamed. I owe almost R200 000.

#RhodesConfessions202311972 At this rate, is the monetary reward of being a sub warden worth the burden placed on them?

#RhodesConfessions202311971 Hi, I want to attend my graduation but need a place to sleep for a night (2nd of April), I will be out of your place by 8 a.m the next day. Btw I am girl.

#RhodesConfessions202311970 My biggest mistake was choosing Rhodes (subjective). As someone who wanted to experience some of the best years of my life in university, Rhodes simply did not do that for me. The institution itself is small, and there’s practically nothing for student to do and I say this as someone who has lived here for four years. The SRC is not for students SRC but basically an extension of the university and has become a popularity contest. There’s no water, terrible infrastructure and the residences are so far from some of the lecture venues so getting back to and from dining halls to make the next class was absolutely frustrating. There is a shopping centre which somehow is a mall that basically offers nothing interesting. I believe McDonalds just opened up BUT either than that and the thousands of high priced coffee shops will learn to accept a life of KFC, Hungry Lion, Steers and Debonairs. For drinks there’s probably 5 establishments in the whole town that are actually good but again expect tavern vibes. The roads are damaged, and full of cow dung, street kids and burst pipes. The only two things, I can’t fault is the education and the team at the Student Bureau. Honestly, you will learn if you’re determined and pass well and the assistance with registration from the SB is good if you’re FUNDED properly. Remember, NSFAS will leave you in debt if you’re on campus residences. They also only pay you R305 as a monthly allowance if you’re on campus residences. They pay R5500 to off campus students but rent is probably going to take R4000 so R1500 for electricity, food, water, WiFi and anything else. All in all, the place sucks, you might make GREAT friends but trust me YOU WILL REGRET MOVING HERE. If you love life, and do not want to hate yourself, DO NOT COME.

#RhodesConfessions202311969 No guys we can't let this one go, please explain yourselves.

#RhodesConfessions202311968 Sanibona yintsizwa 🙌🏾 Lana I'm realizing manje ukuthi I lost a good woman. I told this lady all about myself even things about my childhood that I don't even tell amanye amajongo engihlala nawo. The problem between us is communication, we both played a role in the ending of our relationship , into engiythandayo ngaye is that uyazi ukuthi we both messed it up ngoba ibintle yona into yethu. I told myself ngisaqala ukukhuluma naye ukuthi ngeke ngimyeke ngiyaythanda ingane yabantu. In all my relationships this was the only one where I felt respected and seen as a man. I really fumbled magrootman am ngicela ama advice. Ngizobona la kuma comments ukuthi nithini. Ngiyabonga Admin 🙌🏾
