A DESPERATE WISH
If I could have a wish granted it would be that I could live my life like a written story. Recently I’ve been feeling a bit burdened by all my academic workload and the approaching tests and exams, and my mind wandered to some books I had read, my favorite; The name of the wind,…

Kindness
If you read my post ACCURSED CAKE, you know that anytime I pressure myself to do something it ends up being the thing I shouldn’t do. Of late I have been pressuring myself to be kinder to older people. This probably has something to do with the influence of all the Korean movies I have…

EXPERT SUGAR-COATING.
I find some of the most fascinating things about sharing a hostel with three other ladies, is firstly the fact that most often you tend to adopt their friends and your friend circle increases dramatically, especially when you actually like them as it is in my case. Secondly the undiluted gossip you have unlimited access…

I AM PROUD OF MYSELF.
I was at the lab today and I observed my course mates, these people always claim not to like chemistry but I couldn’t help but notice a slight bop in each person’s steps the moment they donned on their lab coats, a spring with each step, as they toss the lab coat ever so slightly…

A RANDOM COLOURS ARGUMENT.
Hi there, today I had an argument with my friend (I won the argument, mind you) about K-pop idols and their fans globally. So I told her that I feel that most K-pop stans are technically obsessed with the idols in a way western celebrities’ fans are not. I’ve seen fans but these people idolise…

For example my brother just complimented something I wrote and after doing a mental jig, I stared blankly at my screen and thought to myself, ” what if what I write afterwards isn’t so…

TILTED PERCEPTION.
Hi there, I thought of something just now, today I bought a cake from someone and she said she would deliver it around twelve pm, so I told her I had a class around that time (by ten) because I wanted her to bring it earlier although I knew the class was unlikely to hold,…

THE ILLUMINATI???
So I stood in a queue to withdraw today and I peeked into the phone of the lady standing in front of me, and she was casually scrolling through a WhatsApp group called “illuminati”. Bro! Is this what we’re doing now? Causally flaunting illuminati status? Well that seems fly. Don’t mind me it was probably…

IT’S A JUNGLE OUT HERE.
Hi there, it’s me again. Today I’m reporting from Ilorin, the shege head quarter of Nigeria, for those of you in more timid states you’ve probably been given the impression that we are in the rainy season by your scared weather that won’t tell you the truth. But ilorin fears no man and it doesn’t…

A MILLION LITTLE SECRETS.
(Disclaimer: this is a piece I had written a long time ago so keep that in mind as you read, because I spoke of tests and all that.) Do you know that it’s quite beautiful the number of little secrets you’re let in on while walking down busy hallways. Strolling purposefully beside and towards different…
