For Times When You Go From 100-0 And You Can't Explain It.

This post title is quite a mouthful simply because I couldn't find something else to describe how I felt the day I wrote this. I've been in this situation more times than I can remember. It's always exhausting and annoying. I'll be gay, exuberant and then SNAP! I'm feeling down, irritated at nothing in particular and the rest of the day becomes gloomy. No, it ain't mood swing . Or is it? The most annoying thing about this predicament is when people start asking what's wrong and I can't come up with something genuine. The occurrence that prompted this post was the most 'interesting' one ever. Here's the detail. I was having an almost perfect day doing few things online that required me to write a little something about myself. I included "I'm a PhlegMel(Yes, I believe in temperaments)" after 're-looking' up the words in the dictionary to make sure they suited me. As I was to discover later that day, that was a wro...

The Other Side of Midnight

I really don't know why I came up with that topic. Well, it's the title of a Sidney Sheldon novel and it's midnight so why not? I talked about a Sidney Sheldon novel HERE No classes today so I'm curled up in my bed, trying hard to ignore the incessant chirping of the crickets in my room and the loud music from the other room, battling with a crazy network and wondering - Why Network can't be perfect everywhere. Seriously, I'm tired of having to wait for about 5mins to get a page to load. You don't want to know how long it took me to post this. - Why I keep letting it get to me - Whyy anyone would be playing music loudly by this time of the night. - Why I sometimes allow myself to be crippled by fear - Why someone would say it's his destiny to rob. Yes, I just saw it on Twitter - @l_laitan. No, I'm not judging. - Why we sometimes let stereotypes disturb us and hurt our feelings. - Why Darey has such a sweet singing voice - What the answer...

Getting more for less in the Beauty department can give you one tingly feeling and you just want to go on and on with experimenting. Read these beauty hacks I can bet you never knew of and GLOWW. - Go natural with your makeup remover by using coconut oil/vaseline. This one is the truth.

Give yourself that cute pinky pout by exfoliating either with a soft toothbrush or...

Life|Hello July.

Happy New Month beautiful people. I'm sorry I couldn't come up with a better topic. Oh boy, time really waits for no man. We're already in the second half of the year. There's just this aura about July. I think it has to do with the fact that it's the 7th month and that makes it a perfect one. It's the 4th day, it's been good and definitely going to get better. Lately, I've been feeling uninspired. I just keep on checking my blog as though I expect a miraculous post to pop up. I've not been writing and digging up a blog post from my draft didn't tickle my fancy. I just started blogging a few months back and it's not legal to be feeling this way but here am I. You can read my first blog post HERE . Writing this is just therapeutic for me as I've been having too many conversations in my head. Anyway, I'm going to be sharing lessons I've learnt and relearnt over the past few weeks and also what I've been up to. - I've...
