Dear GoD.

Dear God,
I know I am far from perfect and most of the times I am not very ladylike, I know you watch my every move and you expect so much more than I give.

The world is a very messy place to live these days and surviving takes a lot more than hoping for the best.
I didn't pray yesterday because it was a long hectic day, I also didn't pray today because I woke up hours after fajr and the water was just too cold.


I left the house to continue my daily runs which is involves me driving around and I crashed the car, to cut the long story short it was more than a car crash because there was no insurance therefore I just committed a statutory offence Big Oooops. Thank God I made it out alive, no injuries excessive damage to the car I was driving and the other car was a write off.

God I don't need anything else to go wrong in my life. I stopped asking for things when I pray, all I do is thank you for the gift of life and every other thing you have bestowed upon me.
Remember when I was asking, how bad does it get? Well it doesn't get any worse than this.
Ya Allah, please smile upon your daughter and make things easier and bearable, amongst all these life troubles, I try to smile as much as I can, pray more often and go out of my way to do things for others.

If there is something I'm doing wrong please give me the wisdom to do better next time.
I'm not asking for a fortune, but you can also send that my way, I just need every thing to fall into the right place as the right time.

Lots of Love,
Your Daughter,
Ruqkayah.

HOLIDAYS.

Hi guys, So I've been in Lagos for the last three weeks and it has been nothing but chaos, I was very excited for this holiday but everything seems to be going out of control and I scared of the consequences of my actions.  As usual, I have a lot of ideas about what to do in my head, I had plans to write a lot more since my stories are mostly written about Nigerian characters and the cities I've visited in the country. I wanted to update my cv in order to start looking for a new job when I get back to Dublin, I also wanted to learn how to use excel properly and also learn other tools that will make my job search easier and increase of getting a better job.

ESCAPE

"God will punish you', I shouted as I tried to chase the man who robbed me" "E no go better for you ', I am fighting a battle I know I’m not going to win, but I hate being cheated, I settled on the train tracks to catch my breath, a few minutes before the train passes. A small crowd  gathered the nosy bastards who have nothing better to do on a Monday morning, I look up from after a few minutes, I have no choice, a pair of over-bleached feet appeared beside me. The sight of someone's skin bearing a striking resemblance to over roasted plantain nearly made me regurgitate the contents of my stomach. "How far now? she asked putting her hands on my waist.

The Act of Indecent Dressing.

I've always wondered how women can walk around looking almost naked yet feeling comfortable with it. I've never been one for going out with skimpy clothes, I do have some skirts and dresses that are above the knees, but they stay unworn in the back of the wardrobe, I wore a very questionable leather peplum to the beach and I felt very uncomfortable, had to pull it down ever time I stood up , and when It was my turn to go get drinks my brothers friend took a look at me and told me to sit down.  I was embarrassed, but I turned a lot of heads, when we switched locations to Waterside I had a guy wait for me outside the toilet since he couldn't approach me in from of the two intimidating men I was with. He offered to take me out clubbing and I blamed it on the skirt because I was dressed like I belonged in a club.
