ON IMPULSE.




Have you ever gotten something on impulse before and then regretted getting it immediately, and before long thanked the universe for making you get it? 

Today on my way from work, I felt my scandals were about to pull off so instead of it to later disgrace me, I stopped at a cobbler's stand to get the scandals fixed. While the guy was still fixing my scandals my eye caught a fine pam from a shop close by, this reminded me of the burial ceremony I'm to attend tomorrow. 

Well, when the scandal was fixed, I decided to stop by the store and check the pam out. Long story short, if anyone had today me earlier that day that I would be going home with a low shoe, I would have laughed out loud. Because for someone who's very calculative and doesn't just get things on impulse that's almost impossible. 

I sha did trek home because I spent all I had on another shoe I saw at the shop. As I walked home, I regretted stopping at that shop but then again, when I got home and looked at what I had purchased, I was satisfied and happy I did. 

Dearest reader, what did you learn from my story? Have you had a similar case? From my end, I just marveled at how the whole twist went. Initially, given that it cost me a fortune I regretted getting it, but at the end of the day, I was glad I did. 

Certain things may not sit well with you at first, but they could ultimately grant satisfaction in time. I would usually frown at impulse buying, yet on this account, it wasn't all a bad decision.

"NOT ADMITTED"

She clicks on the Whatsapp group chat,  Yet another "Congratulations, you've been admitted", with her heart heavy, she angrily leaves the group, minimize out of Whatsapp. There she is patiently waiting for chrome to load her admission status, this is the third time today she's logging into her jamb caps.  Her eyes almost eager with hope, she muttered under her breath, "God please" The network server makes matter worst by going sluggishly as she clickes "Regular admission status" she closes her eyes, hoping against hope, praying fervently, that this time it'd be different.  But it's not, because as she opens her eyes slowly, she's greeted with an arrogantly boldly written, "NOT ADMITTED", screaming at her. Suddenly the dam breaks.  Silently, tears begin to stream down her eyes, taking a rather familiar router via her chin.  The urge to throw her phone across the room intensifies, she wishes she could will her admission into exi...

TEAM WORK

Image
It can be quite frustrating when a collective effort results in only one person receiving all the praise. Even if my contribution is just 1%, it shouldn’t be overlooked. You never know how these small efforts can make a significant difference. My bubugaga is back from school, and today we did a lot of tidying up. It’s amazing how I suddenly find the energy to work when she's around, despite my usual laziness. After completing so much work, we took a break—we were honestly worn out. Fast forward to the end of the day: everyone applauded her for a job well done, as though it was solely her effort. It felt off because I felt I deserved some recognition too—it was teamwork, after all. So, the point is, you never know how hurtful it can be when someone's effort goes unacknowledged. No matter how small the contribution, appreciate it alongside the major ones. Dearest reader, do you find yourself annoyed like myself when your effort is overlooked in a team work?  @favvy_Ok...

LESS THAN ONE.

Image
There are days when my arms are too heavy to hold a pen, my brain too disorganized to put a sentence together, my thoughts an unending swirl of emotions. But then there are days—days when my smile can break through your screen, invade your life, and steal alongside your heart. Days when my excitement can be likened to that of a 2-year-old, where my inquisitiveness and curiosity know no bounds. Well, today is the latter. But like a poet I love once said, "Even if the light's turned on and my fears are not gone, I'll give it my best shot because the show must go on." So, I'd like to talk about something today: the idea of "LESS THAN ONE." But before we dive into this, allow me to tell you a story. ***** Once upon a time, I had a friend. You know that feeling of being friends with the girl every guy wants, so you get a lot of "Please help me talk to your friend"? In school, we had our lunch bought by different guys each day—one of the ...
