27

 Hi Guys,

I'm officially in my late twenties, well late twenties start at 26, I'm counting from 27 because that's 3 years from 30 and 3 years is a long time. 

I am a day older, my 27th birthday was yesterday the 1st of December. I was expecting sadness, I had it all planned in my head, get a hotel, a bottle of Prosecco, some Chinese and sushi have a lovely bubble bath, pray and cry myself to sleep. 

Unfortunately, thing's did not go as planned and I'm not mad at it. 

I started my prayers at half 11, prayed for about an hour, felt a certain sense of happiness and joy after praying and that was enough for the entire day. 

I watched a few Youtube videos, played switch with my cousin. Played the lotto, won 4 euros, even though I paid 7 for the ticket. I play the lotto on my birthday. 




I took some photo's, which almost ruined the day because I noticed how much weight I gained, my jeans don't fit and a double chin is starting to form. HELP!!!! 

I looked back at the last year, and I am very happy for the small wins, small wins are all I have, but I am very optimistic and I am very sure thing will be way better before my 28th. 

Was in an accident two days before my birthday last year, I spent the day and 23 more days in the hospital with my ex, one thing I am very happy about is the gift of life and good health  

I'm starting to see signs of the great things coming my way and I honestly cannot wait for everything to fall into place, an acquaintance from law school reached about an opportunity that can be career-changing.

I ended the day with some cheap wine, cocktails and Chinese.



Cheers to 27 🥂🥂

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.

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.
