This is a totally random post. Words were forming too much in my head and even though I know it's not much to blog about, I remembered one of the reasons I started blogging - to reduce the story forming rate in my mind- and decided to type and post it afterall. I generally hate everything about sickness but being under the weather for few days last week made me remember every one of the reasons. 1. Smell of drugs: Makes me nauseous and I'm sure everyone can relate. Then, there's always the tendency to throw it up which is why injection is bae. Immediately I got injection, I felt really better. 2. The general helplessness : Having to depend on others for almost everything. It isn't fresh. 3. The pain, tears that lead to headache : I'm one of those people who cry cause of illness. We know crying worsens everything but we really can't help it. The doctor asked me why I was crying, I gave her the honest answer that I didn't know and she found it funny....

If you already read My Jumping Tale post, you'd probably think I'm doing a sort of personal educational recap but I'm not. There's definitely a such thing as coincidence. This post has been sitting pretty unfinished till today when during my sister's birthday outing, one of the topics we had fun discussing was our secondary aka high school and all its drama. It brought back cool memories and I even remembered some people I'd forgotten about so I just decided to take advantage of that and finish this up! Whether you went to a boarding school or not, one thing that is certain is there would be few habits or ways of doing things in secondary school aka high school that never really left you and probably might never do. I mean, it's 6 years as I'm pretty sure there were hardly any cases of jumping . Even though I always have this nagging feeling that I didn't have as much fun as possible back then, I definitely have certain habits that stuck and I...

Am I the only one who lowkey misses those primary school days when all that was our concern was collecting daily allowance to spend on yogurt and the likes? Can't be. I actually attended two primary schools. One where I started and was always getting into different kinds of trouble ranging from bursting into a class and talking to who I came to see without acknowledging the teacher a lot of times till he finally got tired of me and whopped my ass to getting my teacher all smelly and stained because I got unboiled eggs for an assignment instead of boiled ones and the other school where I spent just a session before going to secondary school. I happened to be this exceptionally brilliant child in primary school which I guess made certain people believe so much in me that they felt I'd thrive so well in secondary school without necessarily completing my primary school education. So maybe I did thrive well but recently, I realized that I didn't thrive as well as I could have...

This morning I was pretty sure I wouldn't publish a post this week talk less of today simply because I don't feel like publishing any of the posts I have drafted but then, here I am. I guess I'm less of a planner and more of a spontaneous person and not exactly in between as I mentioned in this POST .  So basically, I've been writing exams for like forever and it's like it doesn't want to end. Here's what I've been up to.. One of those exam days  1. A Gratitude Challenge  : Talked all about it in this post . Honestly, there are some days when I'm already shutting my eyes and I remember I haven't filled in my entry for the day, I just force my eyes open. It's very easy to forget really but I've been making a conscious effort not to miss it. 2. Exams - I have just one left. Yaay. I would have finished today but life happened and there was a public holiday on Monday so the exam for that day was shifted to next week. It's been ...

Has anyone seen Lights Out? It's a 2016 movie that I should have seen by now but haven't because it's horror and I can't even watch it at night which is the only time I have. I'm kinda idle  right now not because I've finished reading everything in preparation for my exams in 2 weeks but because I've had tests back to back this week and I just need my brain to rest. The plan was to achieve this by seeing movies but as at the time of typing this blog post, there's only Lights Out available and the snippet I saw is really scary. The available options were either to sleep or publish a post and I decided to go for the latter and share my favourite movies of all time. The ones that have a really special place in my heart. So, let's dig in 1. My Best Friend's Wedding  : A 1997 movie that I never got tired of watching and would still watch over and over again because my love for  WEDDINGS  has been around since forever. Made me love Julia Roberts ...

I trusted him completely but he broke my heart and still is in the business of breaking it. His promise to always be with me Everywhere I Go was alas a lie. He said that only to catch my attention and make me his. He gave me mouth-watering packages that offered me less for more but it turned out to be a façade. I'm tired and frustrated. I can't carry out my normal routine with all he's been doing. I trusted him just this once and he disappointed me. I never should have promoted him from the zone I placed him in initially. I remember all the times I heard people complain about theirs and I was always relieved I wasn't in their shoes but guess where I am now? I guess that's what life does. Sit in a corner and laugh at you. Nice job. He looks so attractive on the outside but deep down, there's nothing exciting about  him. A big fat façade. I miss the things I could have been doing if I hadn't made the mistake of trusting him too much. His favourite colour is ...

Okay Okay, before somebody freaks out, I'm not talking about the vampire kinda nails. Not like they've ever gotten that long ; something always breaks them. I'm talking about not having my fingernails looking all low and well trimmed. I've come to realise that I love mentioning what births my posts just as I did with this post , my first post  and many more. I'm thinking of starting a series where I share different things I love and to be honest, apart from wanting to know other people's reasons, I can't point out why I'm starting with reasons I love keeping my nails but let's get to it, shall we? 1. To ease boredom  : Okay, now I remember. A boring meeting/atmosphere I was in birthed this post. And because using my phone would have seemed rude and stuff, I kept on and on with cleaning my left fingernails with the right just to keep myself busy. Huge lifesaver. 2. To avoid sleep  : This works hand in hand with boredom and works 80% of the tim...

The other day I wanted to get myself a footwear of some sort. Slippers to be precise. Well, I went out and returned home with no slippers. You already know why from the topic. Virtually all the nice ones were in small sizes. Like, I saw a really cute slippers, was technically drooling but it had to be a size 38. I loved the look of it so much I considered  buying it just for keeps or to give a friend but my purse said No. All the ones in size 41 were just bland looking. I had to ignore the incessant 'Buy it, it's fine' lines the sellers were giving me. Biko, it's not you people that'd wear it. For me, the hustle started way back in secondary school. The only difference is that I always saw big sizes even though I never liked them. There's this particular market my mum and I used to frequent and almost all the shoe sellers already stigmatised me as a very choosy child. At the end of the day, I always had to go with one of the shoes because half bread is ...
