“I lived in South Africa until I was 11 when we first immigrated. My mom had sent me back there when I was 14 for summer vacation. I wasn't doing very well in school, my grades were slipping. I called my mom one day and told her that I wasn't coming back. I ended up staying there until I was 17 before coming back to North America.” FirstsWellsSchoolAmericaMomOne DaySummerSouthMy MomGradesStayingVacationSouth AfricaComing BackNorth AmericaSlippingSummer Vacation Author:Kandyse McClure
“Candice is the original spelling of my name. I changed it to Kandyse when I was really young and first starting out in the business as kind of a joke. I didnt realize it would stick!
