VALENTINE ME?

By

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.

MALIVANI II

By
      Today it wasn't normal at my house. It was the D day. My day. My bags packed with my NEW everything and a wooden 'box' as the school requested.   And there I was, making faces to my brother, laughing at him that he didn't have any new things as I had. He just starred as if to say "woiye baby sis I just wish you knew what awaits you" But I didn't care, I was going to UKAMBANI school, with my new SHOES. I'm going to beat them all in exam, those kamba kids. Exam results was my pride, more so in Mathematics. So I'm going to show them. I kept telling myself.     The whole ride from Wote town, where I put on my NEW uniform on, was silent. Not one word was spoken. We all kept our thoughts to ourselves until we came to a stop. That's when I realised we were parked outside the school's gate. I turned to my parents just to confirm they are going to sleep in the school compound too and they did. Bingo! I had totally nothin...

THE COMMON BEACH WEAR

By
So, at one point in my life, I worked in the print media hoping to get myself through to the TV.  I managed to get some of my articles published with my own byline. ( Treeza can testify to this. hehe.)Well that's a story for another day. This particular one i wrote on 29/1/2014. Titled it THE COMMON BEACH WEAR IN RELATION TO OUR HEALTH, got itself published through so today I'll just give it a small touch. My articles always paved way in the LIFESTYLE column in the newspaper. Oh and by the way, Owiti Samwel, I call him Witty (I'll definitely write about him someday so relax), has been one of my loyal 'fans' throughout my print and radio experience. ( I just wanted to point it out to feel good. lol) #80403 Most of us choose to purchase used clothing for a variety of reasons. It can be down to them being cheaper than having to purchase new clothing fresh off the rack or it can be down to many having a preference of vintage clothing which has been pa...

MY CUP OF TEA

By
" Every time I get my period, it is just like a green light saying - you're not pregnant, carry on girl!" LOL So, the last time I updated, it was on the abortion issue and that if women cannot back out of pregnancies then men shouldn't be able to either. I got quite some reactions. Personally. Well, if you haven't had a read yet, you can peek so we could be on the same page here. Sexually transmitted infections are on the rise among all age groups, as is the abortion rate. But wait, today, in my country, or is it just in the circle of people I happen to know? Well, the number of single parents, more so mothers, has risen. Or do I say trending! It is a lifestyle now. It is as if there is something compulsive about playing the lottery of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infection. I wonder whether unprotected sex is one of the ways in which young people unconsciously explore their anxieties. Young people aren't stupid. Okay, they get dr...
