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 🥂🥂

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.

COURT EXTERNSHIP : Entry 1

I had plans for the two weeks break, had it all planned out in my head, study, work out, stay the F away from carbs and sugar. All I did was sleep, eat carbs and stock up on sugar, I feel like a failure, well not entirely but I'm the real definition of a waste man, Didn't realize how tired I was until I started taking naps during the day yet not finding it difficult to sleep at night. We started our externship . Yay! My posting got changed to Igbosere, got the email while I was in Ikeja High Court, I love criminal litigation, practicing in Nigeria doesn't look that bad. The Judge heard 16 cases, some which were for arraignment but the accused person's did not show up. It's a complete different ball game, been there watching everything we were thought in class being put into practice . Commercial is not as exciting as criminal but , I like the court. The judge hears cases on Land, landlord and tenant, general civil.  breach of contract and some corporate issues...
