Story so far

Hi guys,
Sorry I've been MIA. I've made several attempts to post but my Internet as been acting up and my phone is not connecting to the laptop so I'm going to post from my phone.
Law school has been a new experience, first I moved to the hostel so no more driving to Bwari from  town everyday my bank account is glad. At first I felt some how about my roommates but they cool as f#*# so happy days.


The hostel is alright would give them a 6/10 the rooms are cosy nothing spectacular, beds,study table, lockers and a bathroom and toilet at the back to be shared with the occupants of the next room. Meaning four to six people sharing depending on how many is in a room. 
There is no running water so you have to fetch water from the tap but there are people available to help out all you do is pay them and they are at your service. You rent a drum to store water for 1,500 and they fill is up with water for 300 at a go. Sometimes you can negotiate a monthly agreement which can include fetching water, laundry and cleaning services.
The water is cold so having your shower in the morning is a struggle if you are not used to cold shower. I brought my electric kettle from home but no light In the mornings so I'm stuck with cold showers it's been two weeks since I moved to the hostel and I'm still struggling.
The generator stays on till one am, I'm not exactly sure when they turn it on but you have enough time to charge your phone and other appliances.
We are not allowed to cook in the hostel so mami market to the rescue the food is very cheap but can be very unfriendly to the stomach at times.

Lectures are ok I guess, some interesting and other boring as hell. We do a lot of presentations which takes up a lot of time and people tend to ask very stupid questions and one can  only wonder how they made it to law school.
They are very strict with the uniform and I've seen a lot of people get turned back at the door. I keep it simple with white shirts and blacks skirts to avoid embarrassments and the long walk back to the hostel.
That's all I can think of for now, will keep you posted once more creeps up.

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.

Lost.

Its 7am I can't sleep the insomnia is back, WTF is wrong with me, I've not stepped out the door for five days been holed up in my house for almost a week not doing anything reasonable well except for catching up on series and stuffing my face. My routine consists of waking up when ever I want or by a phone call, getting ready brushing, shower and back in bed I go, getting up to get food or to got to the bathroom , I've been doing this for the last three weeks and Its not healthy, I have nothing better to do and I'm not motivated to do anything or I just cant be arsed but which ever one it is it all needs to stop because its driving me nuts. I feel trapped !!! I have so many bright ideas. I wrote so many stories in my head, but I find it hard to put pen to paper or even do a blog post. I'm lost. Is this okay ? Is it normal? My faith is at an all time low, I can't even cry out to God for help, I just cant be bothered. I cannot do this any longer. I need...

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.
