VALENTINE ME?


Mmmh...Valentines day! What could you possibly read about that you know not about yet?

First, let's save all the crap on the origin of this overrated day. Y'all can google that if you want to. But for the basics, it is named after a christian Martyr.

I have mixed feelings for this day.

okay!
The notion that Feb the 14th must exceed our expectations of a standard Saturday night is cliche. But it is totally okay and normal to feel like this day has to be an unforgettably romantic experience.

Love stories happen just like that. A girl meets boy. They are attracted to each other and before they realize, they are madly in love with each other. But is that it? NO. There is so much more to it. Struggles, conflicts, tears, misunderstandings, family issues and others are a part of almost every romantic relation. With all or some of these only is a love story formed.



When you are in love, the feeling changes the world around and takes you on a joy ride. As if in a drunken stupor, you tend to do these, which you never did. And yes! Love truly has the magic.

But then again, whether you are in a relationship or not, chances are you are going to feel a tinge of disappointment on this day. But do not worry, cause you are definitely not alone.




Let us curb this loneliness of the hyperboled Feb the 14th:
  • Avoid fancy restaurants like the plague. Who wants to wait 45 minutes to secure a table somewhere when you can pick up " chapati madondo, chips mwitu" and the likes in a matter of minutes? The Answer: NO ONE!
  • Look at all the money that is still in your wallet. Not having a date is money in the bank.

 Love is more time to share
It's really when you care
It's two people joined
I was in love with you
before you could drop a coin
It's a sense of trust,
but not enough lust
It's a commitment to be there,
but would you always be there
to share and care?


To wrap it up, this day is no different from BOXING DAY of  Dec the 26th in relation to gifting.
Shower ladies with gifts from indulgent perfume to lingerie.
For the men, nothing less from great knits, leather accessories and fun gadgets to make him smile. Also, matching underwear, a gaming headset, a card and a pair of sweatpants would do justice.

EXCITED ABOUT YOU AT 25?

So, a close friend of mine suggested that I write about LIFE AT 25.(hey Clinton)  Well, I am not 25 - maybe not yet or already past it (guess you'll never know, lol). But come to think of it, there's so much to talk and write about it. One thing I know for sure is that most of us expect to have figured out everything (having a job,that dream car and a perfect life partner - name it all) by this age. People tend to feel so much pressure around this age. Society has a way to burden people with the many unnecessary expectations. Someone, actually at some point my boss, once told me, "If you won't have been married by age 25, forget about getting married!" Now all I could think of was finding me a boyfriend. What if no one wanted me? What if I end up having those creepy lonely nights without a husband? What will become of me without a complete perfect family of my own? What would people think about me? All this until one day I realized that 25 is ...

FACE IT AS IT IS

    Suppose you were a stage artiste and you were to play the role of a woman, though you are actually a man.   Don't be ashamed to call quits on bad habits      You would put on a woman's dress and wig, talk and perform like a woman. But you will not forget that you are a man at the end of the act.   You would eventually get off the stage and go back to the dressing room, change into your real clothes and walk down the street. When you set out to work on Monday morning, you will talk and live like a man. It would be ridiculous for you to go back to work talking and behaving like a woman, the way you did on your role play the other night. The same thing applies to you now. You acted in the wrong way before you knew it was wrong ( I'm not saying being a woman is a bad thing ) but now you have a new life that makes you differentiate the right from wrong. You have been playing the role of a woman for a long time and sometimes you ...

I AM QUEEN

  They are the most over-protective brothers in history. I often feel like I am queen and they are my personal guards,except that I can't order them around, like a queen. which hardly seems fair. Needless to say, they have never let me near enough to a boy to be in a relationship. This one time, one brother, George, said on me over a boy I had my first kiss with, as if a girl couldn't have enough trouble securing a boyfriend. { why I am using this photo, I do not know } And so now it was the first day of campus for me and I was ready for it. I mean who hasn't been ready for a great time in campus! I went to the living room and there he was, Merck. HIM: So are you ready to rock your life in campus? ME: Hell yeah, cant wait to see all the cute boys faces. HIM: No way! you cant talk to any boys except for Thomas. ( see now, Thomas you wonder who he is. Thomas is one of our brothers, at least we make it look like it. He actually i...
