This is Lamees, we were standing outside yesterday and my daughter was looking through Lamees's phone and came across this photo (one of many).  That is when I realized that selfies cross continents, all teenagers are the same.  They love themselves, a lot.  She is beautiful and I wanted to show you one more facet of South Africa. Lamees is considered a coloured, which is the mulatto race here. She would be considered a white coloured, even typing this is weird to me because being called a coloured person in America is derogatory and so back woods.  That word took a one way bus to hell in the 60's and yet here we are in 2013 and it's a race of people in Africa.  There is still a huge amount of racism here, my family doesn't deal with it as much because once people hear our accents they get all weak in the knees and want to chat us up because they love America and they love our accents.  Yes, I am done with my rant.  Lamees is beautiful inside and out, a sweeter girl I have never met.
