It's Democracy Day today in Nigeria 🇳🇬 And it just happens that today 20 years ago, the lives of me, my family and hundreds of other people were drastically changed. I'm talking about a massacre, houses burnt to ashes, stray bullets, total chaos!! you get the idea right? right. I'm writing this through the eyes of my mother because c'mon I was only a month old when all this went down. My mom passed away years ago (May your soul continue to rest in perfect peace Ma😔) She didn't have the chance to tell me this story but my dad and older brother have told me this story repeatedly over the years and I thought it'd be cool if I retold it from my mom's own  point of view. (I know I'm the greatest yeah? 😎😎) P.S Her name  Fumilayo So... Here goes nothing . . . . The cock had crown three times now, it signifies the dawn of a new day. "They haven't attacked yet, maybe God has finally answered our prayers" Funmilayo thoughts as s...

Life is like a box of crayons.                          - John Mayer A little while a go, I was reading a book on wattpad. A fery fery intriguing book. And I was fascinated by how the writer was describing her character with different colors. And I thought to myself, "Hey what color are you?" I answered after about 2 mins of intense peni.... sorry thinking. So here goes- If I were a color, I'll be the combination of white and red (with all the shades of red mayb). Now we all know that White and Red when mixed will produce or bring forth or develop whatever- PINK. Cheesy right? WHITE because I'm plain and I have a pure heart 😛😛 you don't believe me? Ask Mr Hassan 😅😅 RED- This color has over 30 shades and I'm all of them-or not. So here goes BLOOD RED- Because I can be aggressive MAROON RED- This internet says this color is a slightly mysterious shade of red. I can be mysterious sometimes  CRIMSON RED- ...

I'm like an open book. When I'm happy it shows, when I'm angry it shows. I'm not in the business of hiding my feelings. You know, people always say that whenever something's going on with you, you shouldn't show it like when you're angry don't frown just act like everything's alright. BS! That is just being plain pretentious Why you gotta bottle up those feelings??! Don't smile when you're pissed or frustrated or when something's off in your life. You frown! You let it show! You tell the world "HEY I'M REALLY PISSED RIGHT NOW AND I NEED HELP!!!" That's the whole essence of frowning right? It's simply a cry for help right? If you go smiling around like nothing's wrong then there's a 99% chance you won't get help. In essence, what I'm saying is- wear your troubles on your face!. You never can tell who's watching. OMG this is sooo wrooong but think about it! Personally, when I'm angr...

Do you feel like two people are going back and forth arguing up in your head? I feel like I have three. Yeah 3 I am the 3rd and only real person the rest are just a figment of my imagination.. Person1: My face is so rough I wish they would be half as smooth as my feet. Person 2: Does it really matter what your face looks like? The aim is to "be yourself" not going around faking something you're not. Person 3: Okay both of you need to shut up you're messing with my reality, I'm down here and you're up there so I make the rules around here. Person 2: What the actual IRONY. Person 3: Please just go away. Person 3: I got head lice I don't know how this could have happened to me. Because of my stupid inquisitiveness I googled the life cycle of a head lice and I found out you feel your hair itch when they bite your head, spit saliva into the hole they literally just bore on your head so the blood won't clog and then they drink your damn blood, so no...
