First Of All...INTRODUCTION

On a regular basis i get questions like 'Deola (that's my first name by the way) why are you so small?' I actually have different reactions to this question. To some, i just give them my signature stare (trust me you dont want to get that stare), to some others, i just smile and to the remaining people, i just say 'my parents got married for love and not security' and they look at me and i can see confusion oozing from everywhere, in my mind i'm like 'God don catch you,next time you will not ask me jamb question'. Now let me explain that statement to you. See the thing is my both parents are on the petite side and because their love was so strong they got married not even putting their 'little' situation into consideration. Well i present to you the product of that wonderful decision #drumrolls please...MOI. I'm the first of five kids and as you might have guessed, they're all taller than me, well all of them except the last child who will probably catch up with me in five seconds. While i was growing up, i had a little bit of inferiority complex because almost all my friends were taller than me. Now the real issue wasnt even about getting friends because it's always like a blessing, well eventually. When i get to a particular place for the first time, people look at me like 'abi this one don miss road?' but slowly they come to me and talk to me, they become my friends. Right now i have so many friends, a friend of mine calls me 'popular jingo' because each time i'm walking i always see people i know and well i have to greet them.
I'm not about to bore you with my 'compact' stories (meanwhile i have some of my embarrassing moments i want to share with you so...watch this space) i'm actually new at this stuff but i will try my best not to make you sleep. I want to acknowledge one of my good friends, seyi who said to me 'i love portable, portable is the new hot'. He probably had no idea i much i held on to that statement but then, here we are.
            Embrace yourself, Love yourself and dont forget Portable is the new hot! Cheers!

IF THE WORLD WAS DIFFERENT || THE REVIEW

Image
"If the world was different then he would have lived a different life, but it wasn't and only he was responsible for the decisions he made" Pg 36. So reviewing books is one of the features I plan on adding to the blog because i am a book lover and the very first book I'd be reviewing is this amazing book by Aminat Sanni-Kamal of  aminatawastories.com  . I was particularly drawn to this book because it has this Nigerian setting and i have always loved a good Nigerian book right from my secondary school days. I always consider such books to be relatable. This book isn't any different but it has its own edge and uniqueness. "If the world was different" is a story centered around the ills of terrorism, indoctrination and misconceptions about the religion of Islam, revenge, love, secrets, regrets and mistakes, poverty and a whole bunch of other fascinating stuffs that everybody can totally relate to. The twist in this book is off the hook! At some ...

GirlsChat Series 5 || Girlfriend Vs Wife Duties

Image
Hello Queens I hope you all are doing great? Firstly let and say thank you for your participation in the Last Girls chat series and even for all the other ones as well, you guys are the best. So today I have whipped up another interesting yet controversial topic and to be honest, I think I'm loving the "question and answer method". I asked a few ladies what they thought about the topic and they responded beautifully, you'll be seeing that In a bit. So I was just sitting down when I started thinking about this topic. Now I believe that everyone most people go into a relationship with the hope that they will eventually marry the person. As they say " every relationship is a potential marriage " but does this mean that the roles of a girlfriend are the same as a wife's or are they different? Do you think that ladies who perform wifely duties when he hasn't even put a ring in it are desperate? Or the ones who don't are negligent and Proud?...

Fufilling purpose in this journey of life is something that is extremely important to out existence and as such, we have to take it very seriously. A person without a purpose is merely existing without actually living because there is no drive, no zeal, no intent whatsoever, such person is just 'there'.
