<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">This may sound strange but I am certain that I am
addicted to saving money. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">It all started from when I was in primary school. My
feeding money for the day was 100 – 200 Naira and I made sure that I saved at
least 50 Naira each day. It was as simple as that. If I didn’t save money a
particular day I would practically starve myself to make up for the previous
day. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I always had money. Any money my aunties, uncles and the friends of my parents
gave me would instantly go into my savings box. I did not notice I was
addicted to it then because I wasn’t using my money for anything. My parents
paid for everything and the guys who crushed on me in school would buy lunch
for me just to talk to me. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Saving was a regular part of my life and I loved it.
I loved the feeling when my siblings would ask me for money and I would
make them sign a written contract stating that they would pay back. Thinking about
it right now, it is actually quite funny because I was like six when all this
started. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I loved counting my money at the end of every week and feeling like a small madam with all my 10, 20 and 50 Naira notes scattered all over my bed. I was such an
organized person when it came to my finances. Anything that would make me spend
my money has to be extremely important or else I am not bringing out a single Naira.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Now this might sound like a cute story. I am certain
most of you are already thinking “this is a really good habit”, but hold on. i
will soon get to the bad part of my addiction.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I continued saving like this until I got into the
university and I stopped saving as much. Probably because I had more
responsibilities and the money I spent on data was outrageous and I was only
surviving on my 50,000 Naira per month pocket money. The steaks were higher
now. If a guy gave me money, he would always ask for something in return. Something
I wasn’t quite ready to give up yet. So I completely stopped taking money from
the other gender. So I was surviving solely on 50k and it made it hard for me to
save. I still tried to save once in a while but it wasn’t as strict as it was
when I was much younger in primary and secondary school.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I thought I had been saved from my addiction to saving
not knowing that I only took a break and it was coming back stronger and deadlier. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Fast forward to 2018 when I graduated from university
and one year before that I started selling perfumes as a side hustle and a way
to make some extra cash in addition to the little I was getting from home. It was
in 2018 that I found out about this app called piggyvest. Most of you who really know me must have at one point heard me talk about this app. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">It was called
piggybank then but it is currently called piggyvest. I think I got to know
about the app through twitter. It stated off so simple. I think the first amount
I saved on the app was 5,000 Naira and on God, when I put the money in I felt
this rush within me. It was like I should add another 5,000 Naira to make it a
round figure. Any money I got, at least 80% of it must go into piggyvest. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Don’t get me wrong. Piggyvest is an amazing
app to save, the problem is me and my unhealthy desire to save every single
money I have while living like a pauper.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I never wanted anybody to know how much I had in my
piggyvest because they would know I have a problem. I was constantly complaining
to my friends that I was broke while I would have more than enough money in my
piggyvest.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I have only now realized that I am addicted to saving
money and this is because whenever I have to break my savings, I can fall sick.
There was this day when I urgently needed 30,000 Naira for something that was
very important at that time. It was even time conscious but I still made sure I
exhausted all other avenue of getting money before withdrawing MY money from
piggyvest. After I withdrew the money, I fell sick. I would go to the app,
look at how my money had reduced and start crying. I knew I had to look for
that money and more to put back into my piggyvest. Luckily I did and I felt
a lot better.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">This isn’t normal. Its not like I am saving towards
anything at the moment, I just<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>really
love saving to the point that if I don’t save, I wont feel alright. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Few months
ago when I had to withdraw over 200,000 Naira from my piggyvest because I really needed a new phone, you need to have seen me that day. I didn’t eat. I was in
bed all day. Even after getting the phone, I didn’t use it for a few days
because I was angry at it. It took my money. ruined the perfect amount i had in my piggyvest. I had to intensify my saving to get the money back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Once I get paid, I transfer almost everything to my piggyvest, leaving only enough for data and transport money. Then i spend the remaining days of the month complaining about how broke i am.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">This obviously isn’t right. I don’t want to go too
deep into other times I have had to break my piggyvest and how it greatly
affected my health. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Just recently I started a manual piggybank at home. I told
myself that any money from 100 Naira and below would go into my piggybank (kolo).
Now<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> I </span>intentionally look for ways to turn
1,000 Naira into lesser notes just so I can save it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I am really struggling here. I want to spend my money
on myself but I fear that I would fall sick. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I am only writing about this in hopes that someone out
there has a solution to this problem that I have.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

usually 100 Naira but since you will have your luggage and all they might
charge you more. The campus is beside American University Of Nigeria (AUN)

finish your registration in a day as long as you have the necessary documents.
Although I didn't start my registration till January because I paid my school
fees late December and it was actually the last day of first term so I had to
wait till January to start my registration which I finished in a day.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

start lectures on time and usually lecture ends by 1:30 p.m. except for Civil
litigation that sometimes ends by 2:00pm however, we usually have 30-35
minutes break once it is 10:30am. The lecturers were really cool I don't

pounded yam, amala,eba, jollof rice and fried rice among all and each plate
cost N300(Rice and meat with water) but their pounded yam Is 350 per plate,
while other swallow is N300 per plate though you can go beyond that. The
second canteen is owned by a Hausa person I didn't really patronize them but
I know they had the best noodles. There are other food vendors outside
school, there is this guy behind the campus he sells bread and egg, noodles
and all and there is also <b>"Home taste"</b> canteen outside

I was posted to State High Court Abeokuta for court attachment and it was
really educative because I got to see most of the things we were taught in
class in practice. Court sits by 9.a.m and there's no fixed closing hour. You're
required to stay in court till the court rises even if it is 7p.m however,
make sure you fill your logbook as cases are called. At the end of court
attachment, we were given snacks and law report each although some received
money and some were not giving anything it all depends on your Judge. For law
office placement I was posted to Ministry of justice Abeokuta, at first I
didn't like it because I thought there would be lots of work there as all I
wanted was to focus on my books so I could finish the rest of the curriculum
before resumption but when we started I realized it was the best they gave us
enough time to read and very little work to do.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

resumption date make sure you have all the fun, watch all the movies you want
to watch,attend all parties because once you step foot into Nigeria law
school you wouldn't even have<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>time to
get enough sleep. Make sure you start reading starting from the first week so
everything won't pile up for you.Buy textbooks please although you will see
plenty handouts during your stay in law school but trust me textbooks are
more reliable than any other material or handout.Also, in law school you need
to be closer to God pray and talk to him everytime to guide you to the right
path. More importantly, no matter what you face in law school please don't
ever give up on yourself keep on pushing and putting effort until you write
your final paper.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I'm not trying to scare
you but at some point you will feel depressed and probably feel you're not
doing enough especially when you' want<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>a first class or 2:1 it's normal so if you can cry make sure you cry
very well when you start feeling this way. Make sure you have a target and
work towards it and don't ever settle for less don't enter law school with
the mindset of getting a pass or 2:2 aim higher and please start reading from
the start of the first week why I'm saying this is because once every thing
piles up it will be difficult for you to cover the topics sufficiently and in
law school, a topic may be what you did a session in university for you to
know how wide each topic is and you have 5 courses to read so once you don't
start reading in the first 2-3 weeks it will throw you off balance hence you
start looking for how to get 40 or 50. In law school read until you're
exhausted sacrifice the 1 year because it will worth it at the end.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">First week? I got my posting on a Sunday, and I remember vividly that I
hadn’t packed my luggage until I got posted. The First time I visited the
Lagos law school campus was the following Wednesday. I got to the class late
so I had to take a back seat. The class went on till around 4 o’clock. This
was the first culture shock I had because at the university level, the limit
to the length of classes per course was hours, and here I was, facing a
system that at the time seemed brut. I got home that day with a headache and
decided I wasn’t going for Lectures for the rest of the week. I arrived the
campus hostel, the next Sunday. The First few lecture weeks were exhausting
and demanding, but this was just a period where my body and mind had to adapt
to the new system. Although the hostel and independent living wasn’t new to
me, but the length of lectures was on another level and it took a while to
adjust.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Law school is the same everywhere and the topics are uniform, the
approach to teaching is however very different. In Lagos campus, I saw it as
a system where the lectures were actually investing in the students. It was
very hectic and didn’t give much time for personal studies but, the teacher
really made sure that they did their best, to the extent that if they feel
that one student hasn’t understood a topic, they’d go over it again and keep
revisiting those knuckle headed topics. Because they’re investing so much in
the students, there is no closing period in Lagos. So, we stay in class until
the topic is over flogged (that is generally not for all lecturers sha as
some are not too good at passing knowledge). The lecturers were very
approachable even though they tried to build a godlike charisma around their
image.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

In Lagos, we were assigned permanent seats based on what group you fall in.
The idea behind this, I believe, is so people don’t have to start struggling
for seating space. With my experience, there really isn’t any repercussion
for not sitting in your assigned seat though lecturers call registration numbers
randomly and if they figure out you’re not within your group, they will
threaten you query </span><span style="font-family: "segoe ui emoji" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">😉</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Well, would I call this a pattern? because it wasn’t consistent. I
usually woke up around 5 in the morning to read the topic for the day and at
9 in the night read the topic treated in class. Time to read was a challenge,
reason being that the schedule at Lagos was not cast in stones. Firstly,
classes could end at any time, they may as well end by 6 in the evening.
After that, there is a supposedly compulsory group meeting to handle tasks
ahead of the class for the next day. I won’t say these group meetings were
compulsory, but 96 people in a certain group were given queries by law school
for not attending a group meeting during my time, so you might as well
connect the dots. After the group meetings we had to hustle for food which
would be bought (by now you know cooking isn’t allowed) and it was time
taking. Soooooo, Lagos wasn’t the best for “time to read”.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I feel like this question shouldn’t be for a Lagos Campus aspirant.
Lagos is the Vegas of Nigeria, there are loads of places to visit, chill, and
hangout to ease the stress of the law school (please remember why you’re in
law school, because it’s easy to forget in Lagos, and Law school comes at you
fast).<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

that has been taught during the lecture weeks. Frankly, a lot of things will
be abstract until the externship period, it is the duty of every student to
observe and understand those things, and also read in preparation for the
exams. <b>THERE IS NO BETTER TIME TO READ LIKE NEVER BEFORE THAN DURING THE

I had a friend who as a way of encouragement would say “the Nigerian law
school is not looking for thieves, it is looking for armed robbers” and this
is the truth. The exams are not set for you to fail. However, whether they
will be easy or hard depends of your investment in preparation. The most
difficult part of law school is not the exams, it’s the preparation for the
exams.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

this is no different. Preparation for the exams start from your first day on
campus. Eat well, read well, rest well, play well, and pray well. Not to be
too spiritual, but you need your God for the exams because it’s takes mental
strength to pull through well. Make friends because life doesn’t start after
law school, it started the day you were born and law school is part of life.
Move along with good friends, people that’ll encourage you because trust me,
you will need encouragement. Stay away from Unnecessary pressure, a lot of
people spend their time in the library doing nothing, do not feel intimidated
by people answering questions in class, or being in the library all day, or
academic argument, you don’t need those. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Happy New Year everyone. Last year I started the "Life in Nigerian Law School" series but I decided to take a break after posting the first three post, but now I am back.<br />

In my campus there are 3 hostels, <b>Adam & Eve</b> (has a mixture of
both male and female), <b>Snake Island</b> (Male Only) and <b>Blue Roof</b>
(male and female). There are <b>G Executive rooms</b> and <b>Classic rooms</b>
too (these ones are based on maybe Connect or Maybe payment I am not sure and
it’s usually one or two per room). For the regular rooms like ours </span><span style="font-family: "segoe ui emoji" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 106%;">😀</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 106%;"> it was Five people in a room. I
was not impressed with that but I had no choice. I think the population in
Enugu Campus this year was a lot more than normal. Also, before we left for externship, our DGG was changed to Mrs. Stanley Idum and she promised a lot of changes in the hostels. We could already see most of these changes when we resumed for third term as majority of our hostels had been changed and the occupants were glad. I wish she had come earlier. The next set of law students to come to Enugu campus would enjoy all these new changes done in the hostels. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Hello and welcome to my blog. It is 11PM on a Tuesday
night and I am in bed thinking of the next phase of my life.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Today's blog post is easily relatable. It is about the
waiting period. The waiting period is a time in a person’s life where you are
expecting a certain thing and you have done all that’s within your reach to get
it, and now all you have to do is sit and wait for it to happen. It can be
really frustrating at times; the uncertainty and sudden feeling of emptiness
can be very upsetting and degrading.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Most of my blog post tally with what I am currently going
through in life so, you guessed right; I am currently in my ‘waiting period’. A
few months ago (as most of you who read my blog and/or know me personally
already know), I finished my one year compulsorily law school program <a href="https://iampase.blogspot.com/2019/08/my-nigerian-law-school-experience-life.html" target="_blank">(click here to read all about it)</a> and now I am currently waiting for my results to be
go. Not only that, I am also waiting for a call back from various job
interviews, for my NYSC posting and for a lot of other things. Basically, this
is one of the most crucial moments of my life and I can do nothing right now
but wait. I am naturally not a patient person so you can already tell how hard
it is for me.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Like me, a lot of people have been or are currently in
the “waiting period” of their lives. Its either your waiting for your results,
a job, an admission/scholarship, a promotion, a new apartment, a husband/wife,
the list goes on and on. We all have something that we are currently waiting
on, it’s a part of life. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
During the waiting period it is easy to fall into
depression, boredom and loneliness. It is easy to feel like nothing is going on
for you. It is easy to feel like life is moving and you are stuck in the same
place, it gets even worse when you see your mates climbing up the ladder of
success, breaking barriers and doing great things so effortlessly. But
remember, everybody is on a different journey in life, don’t compare yourself
with others from a point of jealousy.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I have recently come to the realization that everybody
has this period in their life and very few people tend to take advantage of
this period. Utilizing your waiting period will determine how you go about the
next phase of your life when the thing you have been waiting for finally comes.
It is not enough to say ‘since it is the waiting period then let me just sit
around and do nothing’. You have to get up and utilize this period.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I am no motivational speaker as I can already see that
this blog post is taking a “motivational post” turn. As I wrote earlier, I am
currently in my waiting period and I would like to share some of the things I
do and would like to do during this period. Most of these things have reduced
the anxiety that comes with the waiting period.<o:p></o:p></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><b>Pray:</b> I am not the most spiritual person but I
try to always include God in every phase of my life. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>During your waiting period it would be
important to pray to God for guidance. My favorite scripture in the bible, <b><i>Jerimiah
29 v 11 says “For I know the thoughts I have towards you, thoughts of good and
not of evil, to bring you to an expected end”.</i></b><i> </i><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This scripture has seen me through some
difficult times in life <a href="https://iampase.blogspot.com/2017/08/a-review-of-last-eight-months.html" target="_blank">(click here to read about one of those experiences)</a>. God knows the end of everything even <span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">before it begins so it would be right to
pray to him for guidance during the ever-confusing waiting period.</span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><b>Read a book.</b> It doesn’t even have to be an
educational or motivational book, just read a good book. I have realized that
just by reading a good book, you improve your vocabulary. If you are waiting
for a job and it is in a really specific field, pick up a book about that line
of work and read about it. Improve yourself each day of your waiting period.
The skills you are able to pick up during this period will never leave you.<i><o:p></o:p></i></div>

</b></span></span></span><!--[endif]--><b>Pick up a hobby/skill: </b>Is there something you
like doing and never had time for it, well guess what? Now you do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As most of you have noticed, I started
blogging more often than usual. I love blogging but I never had the time back
then to be consistent with it, so much so that I started calling myself “the
inconsistent blogger’. Well, now that I am in my waiting period, I have started
blogging more, reading more blogs and learning on how to grow my blog and it
has been fun. <i><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></i><b>Is there
something you love doing? </b>Do you love singing, dancing, writing,
photography, makeup, painting, designing, sewing? Whatever it is, there is no
better time to perfect that hobby than now; your waiting period. I have this
friend who started her YouTube channel when she was at home waiting for a job
and today, she has monetized her channel and is cashing out. So, don’t look
down on that hobby you have, perfect it during this period and watch it
flourish for you in the next few months or years to come. Your waiting period
is a first hand opportunity given to you to grow and become a better person for
the next phase of your life.<i><o:p></o:p></i></div>

of time to hang out with friends or go out to parties and/or events to meet
people. But guess what? Now you do. Don’t just sit at home and do nothing
during your waiting period, grow your circle. Meet people that would have good
impact on your life. I get the fact that money might be an issue for some
people (me inclusive) but I bet if you think long and hard you can come up with
places and events you can go to that wouldn’t cost you that much. You can also
google free events happening around you, you would be surprised as to how many
there are. <i><o:p></o:p></i></div>

in my life and this is definitely something I would like to do before the year
runs out. Give back to the community, help the poor, the widowed, help your
neighbors. Go to your local church and find out if there are any events
happening and if they would need an extra set of hands. Go online and search
for places you can volunteer at. I don’t know if it happens to other people
but, there is this joy I get when I help someone out and the person smiles at
me, I always feel so at peace with myself; with the world.<i><o:p></o:p></i></div>

days, give your body that desired rest so that you can be well prepared/rested

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I attended the Headquarter Campus of the Nigerian Law School at Bwari,
Abuja. That had always been the campus I wanted for several reasons so when I
checked my posting online and saw that I had been posted there I literally
screamed and jumped in excitement. I was super excited and optimistic that I
would be attending law school at a location which was comfortable and
convenient for myself and my family.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Locating the campus was not difficult. This was mostly because I had a
relative who had also been posted to Abuja and who knew the location of the
campus. Google map was also a good guide as the roads are often numerous and
confusing in Bwari, Abuja.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The first week of law school was quite awkward. I was a little
overwhelmed at the size of the campus and the cultural and religious diversities
among the students. I remember going to class so early and keeping to myself
so as not to get noticed for the wrong reasons. I didn't contribute in class
nor did I ask any questions. This was largely because I was scared of
embarrassing myself before "the whole of Nigeria". I spent most of
my time with colleagues and former classmates from my University. It wasn’t until
the third week that I fully adjusted.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I live in Port Harcourt so the most preferred means of getting to Abuja
would naturally be by Air Transport. From the airport, taxis can be used to
convey persons directly to the Nigerian Law School. The transport fare was
quite high though reaching up to <b>12,000 Naira</b> sometimes. Luckily for
me, I had relatives in Abuja who always came to pick me up from the airport
to school. <br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br />
The registration process was good. I spent a whole day on the process. We had
to make numerous photocopies and submit several documents at different
offices. I would have preferred if the registration process could have been
done electronically to save time. At the end of the registration I was issued
a medical card at the Hospital and allocated a hostel.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The hostels in Abuja Campus are the best across all the campuses in
Nigeria. The hostels had just two persons per room and two rooms to a
bathroom and toilet. The hostels were very new, neat and serene. There were
lots of cleaners and security constantly taking care of the hostels. We also
had sufficient power supply with at least 20 hours electricity daily. The
hostels were as comfortable as regular hotel rooms. Lol! Each student was
allocated a personal bed with a wardrobe, reading table, chair and mosquito
net. The cleaners came in at least once a week to clean the room, the
bathroom and toilet. Living in the hostel was an incredibly relaxing and
comforting experience. It almost felt like home especially as the hostels in
my University were nothing close to their standard.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

My roommate was my cousin so bonding was not an issue. I however took a while

argued severally on a lot of issues but always settled afterwards.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Lectures on my campus were very apt, informative and concise. The classes
were conducted with PowerPoint slides projected for the students and an
efficient public address system. Our classes commenced daily at <b>9.00 am</b>
and ended at <b>1.30pm</b>. We had a tea break from <b>11.00 - 11.30 am.</b>
The lecturers were patient, well read and brilliant with several years of
experience under their belt. They taught with precision and accuracy. One
thing I found exciting was the way and manner the lecturers spoke to us. We
were treated like colleagues. Ending lectures early gave us more time to rest
and read up what we had been taught.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

sucks. As I got the email I didn’t know how to react. My first instinct was to
laugh, then the hot tears started rolling down. It is honestly not a good
feeling. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Over
the years I have learnt to handle rejection way better than I did two years ago
when I wrote this blog post <a href="https://iampase.blogspot.com/2017/05/my-first-rejection-at-atm-queue.html" target="_blank">MY FIRST REJECTION AT THE ATM QUEUE.</a> and here are the ways I have learnt to
deal with my feelings right after I have been rejected.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<ul>
<li>·<span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: -0.25in;">The
first thing I strangely do when I have just been rejected or denied something that
I earnestly wanted, is to laugh. I guess this is my period of denial, when I can’t
believe what just happened. I know this
may not sit well with some people but it has helped me get to the next stage.</span></li>

</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: -0.25in;">The
second thing I do is cry. If there anything I have learnt over the years is
that, even though crying does not change anything per se, it is good for your
mental health. I always just go to a quiet place and cry. A quite place because
I don’t like people consoling me when I am crying. I want to cry it all out and
be done with it.</span></li>

</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: -0.25in;">The
third thing I recently started doing is talking to someone about it. It could
be your sister, brother, friend, parent or someone who is in a similar
situation as you are. I am not one to get emotional and tell people about all
the ‘not so good’ things going on in my life; but lately I have learnt that
talking about it tends to ease the pain.</span></li>

</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: -0.25in;">Another
thing I never fail to do is to pray. Pray for guidance, for the way forward. I am
a firm believer of the fact that what God doesn’t want to come your way would
never even cross your path. You might have earnestly wanted that job, that
promotion, that relationship to work, that salary increase, that baby, but
unfortunately or fortunately God had other plans. He knows how our life is
going to play out from the day we were born to the day we die. So whenever I have
just received a rejection or something I had wanted didn’t go as planned, I go
to the one person who knows me more than anyone on this earth and firstly thank
him for the rejection and ask him for the way forward.</span></li>

</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: -0.25in;">The
last thing I always do is, pick myself back up. This is one of the key things. Don’t
let that rejection bring you done for good! You cannot keep wallowing in that
rejection for long. A person is not a failure merely because he failed at a particular
thing; a person is a failure if after failing, he fails to pick himself back up
and start all over again.</span></li>

I think I'll stick with travelling by road because there's no airport in Bayelsa
so coming to Bayelsa from any state by Air means you will have to stop at
Port Harcourt airport then get a taxi to transport you down to Bayelsa and I
find that quite stressful. </span><span style="font-family: "arial black" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Registration process was 'easy' according to the people I met there, but when
it got to my turn, I spent four good doing it thanks to law school site which
was being upgraded then so it disturbed the person in charge of registration
to confirm if I was truly posted to Yenagoa campus so I do not have any issue
during exams. After that, everything else was quite stress-free. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

The rooms in my hostel were quite nice, we were 5 in a room and some other

resumed late had to stay in the common room and some the executive hostel

Lectures in Bayelsa campus was okay and the lecturers were also very friendly
with us and made sure we understood what we were being taught and they made
sure we did not feel stupid when asking questions in class. We start lectures
by 9am and end by 4pm depending on the topic of the day though sometimes we
close earlier than 4pm.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

We were not assigned individual seats, as a matter of fact, we were allowed
to sit wherever we wanted but the rules changed at a particular time when a
student complained about our sitting arrangement and our DDG decided to
assign seats to individuals according to our various group which was assigned
to us during registration and anyone who went against this arrangement, was
penalized. After a while of sticking to the rules and it didn't help matters at
all, we all starting sitting the way we liked in class.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Uhmmmm, my social life on the campus was a 5 out of 10 and this is because I
am not the social type so I wasn't so interested in finding out if there were
other forms of fun hang out spots. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Externship was great and interesting too, I learnt almost all that was
expected to learn and also met lawyers who played different roles in my life
during this period. I enjoyed both my court and chamber attachment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I can’t really explain it and where its coming from; maybe it’s from finishing my Bar Finals or whatever, but recently I’ve been at peace with a lot of things happening in life.</span><br />

Well, court and chamber attachment were very tasking for me. I had to be in

after a stressful day in court. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">A recent debate has sparked up online, especially on
the popular social media platform called “Twitter”. Is Marriage an achievement
or not?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> </span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Now it is no news that in the county where we live,
once you reach a certain age, your parents, aunties and uncles start dropping
subtle or not so subtle hints that you need to find a man or woman to settle
down with, to build a home with, to start a family with. Most youths of
nowadays, under this unnecessary pressure begin to feel the need to get married
immediately and this leads to all sorts of calamity and miss-marriage; I will
explain later.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Don’t get me wrong, marriage is a beautiful thing. Being
able to find someone who you voluntarily want to spend the rest of your life
with and someone who feels the same way is a wonderful thing. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">A lot of people have different reasons to get married. It may be that
they have found their soulmate, they are pregnant, they are being forced or pressurized
by their parents or relatives to do so, age is no longer on their side, or the
one that worries me the most “because it is the next thing to do”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Now I have never been married. I have never even been
in a long term relationship but that does not stop me from sharing my opinion
on this topic.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Marriage is a sacred union, something you should go
into because you want to, because you cannot see yourself with any other person
that the person you want to get married to. Not because it is the next thing to
do.</span></div>

Marriage an Achievement?</span></i></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> Ask anybody this
question and watch them go all out. In my opinion Marriage is not an
achievement. It is a thing of joy; it is a beautiful thing but I do not in any
way consider it an achievement. You all may have conflicting views but this is
just my opinion.</span></div>

fails to get married on or before a certain age is a<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> failure</b>. Calling marriage an achievement means that if you have
acquired all the degrees in the world, built an empire for yourself, won the Nobel
prize or even found the cure for Cancer, the mere fact that you are not married
means that you are a failure and all those other things you ‘think’ you have
achieved is nothing.</span></div>

But I would not feel pressurized or feel like I am backsliding because of the
mere fact that I am not married. I would get married when a find I man whom I love

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">It is because of this notion that “Marriage is an
achievement” that a lot of ladies take all sorts of tacky and nonsense behavior
from men because they want him to get married to them. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Ladies, any attitude a guy you are currently dating is
exhibiting that you find intolerable to live with and you have talked to him
about said attitude and he has refused to change; please end that relationship.
You cannot change a person you couldn’t change while you were dating, when you
get married. You just cannot. So be guided. Same applies to the men. </span></div>

I READ</span></u></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 107%;">Well, there were different ways people read in law
school. Some people read all night, some people waited until it was close to
exam time to read, while some; well I don’t know, this is how I read. Lol.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 107%;">Right from university, I would always form my personal
note before I read so I did just that in law school as that seemed to work
pretty well for me in university. <span> </span>I spent
most of my time reading and forming my notes, I did this from November when we
resumed till June, close to the end of my externship. After I was done forming
my notes, it was now time for the main event ~ reading the notes I had formed. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 107%;">The notes I had formed were a lot, to be honest I was
scared at first to read. All that was going through my mind was how would all
these things I have written enter my head before September. About two weeks
later what was going through my mind was “how will all this information enter
my head before August” as they had just brought forward our exams.</span></span></div>

scared but then I chilled and I took it one topic at a time. I made sure I read
my notes from start till finish at least six times before exams. And by the
time it was time to write my exams, I knew basically everything in my note. Loll,
I was surprised at how easily I was assimilating it all, but it was honestly
all God’s grace. </span></span></div>

totally stopped eating there. A lot people still ate there so I guess it was
just me and my friends who did not like their food.</span></span></div>

my morning and afternoon food during my stay in law school. This is the restaurant
outside the hostel but inside school. It is right in the middle of both
hostels. <span> </span>There are <span> </span>three food vendors inside supreme court but
the one I ate at during my stay in law school was the food vendor in the
middle. I don’t really know their name; all I can say is that their food was
superb. Their pasta and salad was one of my favorite. </span></span></div>

their sharwama on my second day in law school and I hated it. After that I never

to the club but I made sure I got to the hostel before 12 midnight when the hostel

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 107%;">The first dinner was okay. The second was not all that

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 107%;">The food was eatable, not that great but at least not
that bad that you wouldn’t be able to eat it. It is a three course meal and you
have to use your cutlery properly and be the on your best behavior. You can
chat with your friends during the dinner but in low tones.</span></span></div>

on a suit. For ladies your skirt must be below your knees and stretch skirts
are not allowed. If you are not properly dressed, best believe that they will
send you back to the hostel to change. And if you miss any dinner, it means you
cannot be called to bar. So take your dinner seriously. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Marriage; the one thing a lot of single ladies dream
of.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yes, I know, I said single ladies. In
my opinion; which is what this whole blog post is based on, men do not really
dream and obsesses over marriage the way ladies do. I think this obsession can
be linked to the mentality girls were brought up with, to think that marriage
is an achievement and any woman who fails to get married at a certain age or at
all, irrespective of all the amazing achievements she has acquired in life, is
a failure. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">At an early age of nineteen, an average girl is
already planning her life, who she would get married to, how many children she
plans on having, where she would live with her husband and all those other
things that seem so important to ladies and not so important to men. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Ladies are wired to believe that if they do not get
married in life then they have a flaw, a problem, that no man was able to find
them attractive and that they have failed in the one thing they were put on
this earth to do. With this huge burden resting of her shoulder, she rushes to
get married to anybody, and I mean anybody, who is willing to get married to
her even though the feelings are not reciprocated. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The whole essence of this post is to speak on my
overwhelming fear of commitment and marriage. I know this may sound strange, or
maybe not, but the thought of marriage scares the crap out of me. The thought
of having the share the rest of my life with another human being terrifies me. The
thought of waking up to the same face, the thought of living the same routine
life and most especially the thought of having to always be there for another
human being doesn’t make me all happy and hopeful as it makes most people.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">In all honesty, I have no idea where this fear came
from. Marriage is supposed to be something that brings joy and happiness to
people but to me the reverse is the case. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Not to sound like a feminist, (which is, quite frankly
not a bad thing) but, women always seem to get the short end of the deal in
marriages. As a married woman certain things are expected of you, you are
supposed to not only cook, clean and take care of your husband, but also to do
the same and more for your children. Even as a woman who does the same 9-5 job
as her husband, the society expects her to, after a stressful day at work,
change out of her work clothes and her ‘housewife’ clothes and do the work of a
‘wife’. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">She is expected to make food for a man who come back
from the same work as she just did and is now in the sitting room watching football.
She is expected to help the children (not her children, but the children that
belongs to both her and her husband) with their assignments. she is expected to
bath the children, wash and iron their clothes and also the clothes of her husband
or should I say ‘man baby’, and if she dares complain or ask her husband to
help you out, she is seen as less of a ‘wife material’<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Speaking of ‘wife material’; no two words pisses me
off as much as these words. Once a woman is willing to sacrifice living the
life she actually wants and dropping all that to take care of an ‘ungrateful
man’ she is seen as a wife material, somebody worth marrying. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Why is a woman’s worth determined
by the amount of crap she is able to take from a man. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Why is it that once a woman finally sees the
light and decides to speak up for herself, for her rights she is seen as a ‘nagging
wife’ or a ‘lazy wife’ or nowadays a ‘feminist’. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Feminist a word that should be praised, a word that
should be used to glorify a woman who has finally decided to seek for equality between
her and her male counterpart, is now a word used to disregard woman. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Our society, which is 100% patriarchal, has no regard
for women. they want a woman to be humble, to be willing to bend over backwards
for her man to succeed, and if she dares decides not to or tries to question the
whole system, the word ‘feminist’ is thrown at her in the most disregarding
tone. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Women go through so much, so much pain and sacrifice
and all for what? For an ungrateful man who wouldn’t think twice before he
jumps into bed with someone who is almost half your age. For a man who sees you
as a tool, a help who should be willing to do everything he tells you to do
without questions. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Now I might sound like someone who has personally
experienced or been in a marriage where I had to sacrifice a lot and have finally
seen the light but thankfully I haven’t experienced such. I am speaking from
the point of view of an observer. I have seen marriages where the woman does
practically everything in the house, she cooks, cleans, takes care of the
children and her husband. The man does practically nothing. He goes to work by
8am and the wife goes to work by 10am. They both come back by the same 6pm. He immediately
proceeds to the bathroom to freshen up while she clocks in at her second job in
the kitchen. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Ever wondered why women age faster in marriages than men?
This is because why she works all day, the man only works from 9-5 and comes
back home to rest. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Another thing I utterly despise is when a man is bold
enough to say that because he provided for the family financially, the woman is
supposed to be the one taking care of the home solely. Who the hell raised
these men? And then it pains me even more when such a man doesn’t provide for
the family solely and the woman still has to chip in and by chip in I mean pay
50% of the bills. Some men would say ‘I do not want my wife to work, let her
just take care of the home and the children (oh God, let me not meet such a
man). If you want such a wife, you could as well just have married a house girl
or an illiterate. Do not marry a girl who went to the university, graduated
with a good grade and has a bright future for herself just to tell her that you
want her to be your personal house girl under the façade of a marriage.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I just have to add that not all men act this way, some
men are actually caring, understanding and willing to share in the burden of
taking care of the children and the home and I am glad I am lucky enough to
know a few. It gives me hope about marriage and most especially in the future
of our patriarchal society. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I am the kind
of person who hates feeling cheated and the way marriage is set up, especially
in Nigeria, the woman almost always gets cheated, always gets the short end of
the deal. She sacrifices her time, does all the work in the house and also goes
to work. This might be why very few women go far in their careers because after
a while of working two jobs, (one at home and one at her actual place of work) she
gets tired and decided to choose one because even the bible said ‘you can’t
serve two masters at the same time’. And as a ‘woman’ she is most often than
not, going to pick her children over any job.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Now I do not know the way forward, maybe it is to
marry an understanding husband or to not get married at all, because when you
really think of it, a man can be really understanding while you guys are still
dating and turn into something else when you finally get married. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I just wanted to put this out there that marriage is not always fun for women.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">MY
VERDICT<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I really enjoyed myself at the festival. Sadly, I had
to leave early. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I met a lot of people. Made new friends and most of
all, I ate the best bole I have ever had.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I can honestly say that the people who organised the
festival really put in so much effort and time. It was definitely worth the
hype.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I hope I would be able to attend next year’s own
because I am sure it would be better than this year’s festival. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Also, I think I just need to add this. Port Harcourt
girls are fineeeeee and so sexy. If you
see the different kind of beauties that graced the festival, you would think it
was a beauty pageant. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Hey guys welcome back to
my blog and if this is your first time of joining us you are most welcome and
please remember to subscribe to my blog to get the latest updates.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">So guys today we are
going to be talking about relationships and answering the age long question of ‘when
is it the right time to leave the relationship?’. This blog post is not only
for the ladies but also for the gentlemen.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Let’s begin!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Love is a really beautiful
thing, being able to find someone you can get to share every waking moment of
your life with is priceless. Being able to bare your whole body and soul to
just one person in hopes that they would accept you for who you are, and they
do, is something I cannot even begin to fathom. Love can be beautiful at the beginning
but there comes a time when things become hard and unbearable, where you start overcompensating
for his/her shortcomings and you seem to be sadder than usual. This is the time
when you have to sit down and think to yourself if he or she is worth sacrificing
your mental sanity and happiness for. This is the time where you have to
consider if now is the right time to GET OUT. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">There’s a saying that <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Love Is Blind </i>and this blog post is the
cure to the blindness that comes with love. I am going to give five instances
where in my opinion it is time to get out of that relationship before it ruins
you. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u><span style="font-family: "colonna mt"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">IF HE/SHE CHEATS ON YOU.<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">There’s this new trend
that I do not still seem to understand. Now more than ever, people are more
tolerable of cheating spouses and partners. A girl who Is not yet married to
her boyfriend would stay with him for years knowing that he is unfaithful in
the relationship all in the name of trying to be a Ride<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> or Die Chick. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></i>Because woman
have decided to turn their eyes on their cheating partners and stay in the relationship,
the men now see cheating as a norm. You hear sayings everyday like ‘Boys would
be boys’, ‘Men are not born to be monogamous’. The funniest of it all is when
they quote the book of <b>Isaiah</b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> 4:1</i></b> in the most outrageous manner. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Ladies and gentlemen, if
you notice that your partner is cheating on you and you decide to stay in the relationship
in hopes that once you guys get married everything would change; I’m sorry to
inform you but your future would be filled with so much tears and regret. A man/woman
who can cheat on you with another person does not love you and marriage cannot
change that fact. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">A person who truly loves
you would never even think of cheating on you. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Ever seen a playboy who
finally decides to settle down, finds his queen and never cheats on her. If he
is cheating on you then you are not his queen, oga is not yet ready to settle
down and when he is, he would leave you and go and find his Queen.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">No matter how much you
love him/her, if you cheat on a person you claim to love then you are lying to
yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I get the fact that temptations
come every day, but being able to stand your ground and not cheat on the person
you love is the beauty of love.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u><span style="font-family: "colonna mt"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">IF HE/SHE BEATS YOU<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Now this is a no brainer.
If the person you claim to love or the person who claims to love you, raises
their hands and beats you, no matter how small, my dear it is time to get out. We
need to stop giving excuses like, it was the work of the devil or I was drunk
and didn’t know what I was doing. Alcohol doesn’t make you do things you would
never do; it only gives you courage to do those things you already had in mind
to do.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Don’t marry a person in
hopes that when you get married such person would change. A man or woman that
beats you when you guys are only dating would most definitely beat you, and do
worse, when you finally get married.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">If you are only dating a
person and such person is already beating you please please and please, forget
that love and get out of the relationship. Trust me, you deserve and can do way
way better.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Now I don’t know the
exact reason why you may be crying but, if you know it is because of you
partner your eyes are wetter than usual, please get out of that relationship
for your mental health. Even though it may be temporarily, just leave. Get yourself
back, work on the problems and make sure that things are okay before you come
back. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

supposed to be filled with love and happiness. I get the fact that
relationships have their ups and downs but if your relationship seems to be having
more downs than ups, please get out. Your mental sanity is very very important.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Overcompensating to make
a relationship work can be really really frustrating. If you find yourself doing
all the work in the relationship and your other half seems not to give a rat’s
arse about anything that happens in the relationship, please it’s time to pack
your load and get out of that unrequited relationship.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">They may give excuses
like, I’m not really a relationship person, I don’t just know how to express my
love. My dear please don’t fall for it. A guy or girl who truly loves you would
go out of their way to make you happy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">There’s no doubt that in
every relationship there is always one person who loves more than the other but
when one person is giving 90% love and the other 10% then that’s just not
right. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">So if you find yourself
in this situation then its high time to get out of that relationship and find a
person who is willing to go the extra mile just to make you happy. Trust me,
that person is out there, you just have to be patient. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">A healthy relationship is

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">If you entered a
relationship in your right mind and as a reasonable person and the few months
into the relationship you begin to notice yourself do bad and terrible things
you would have never done had you not met your partner, then I think it’s time
to flee from that relationship. You deserve to be with someone who makes and brings
out the best in you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">No matter how many years
and how much time and effort you have spent in a relationship it is never too
late to get out. Don’t say because I have spent all my good years on one person
I can’t just leave like that. Just remember that being alone and happy is a whole
lot better than being with someone and unhappy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

you notice these signs in your marriage and you can’t bear it anymore, please

lots of things you and your partner can do like marriage counselling, talking
to each other on what you can’t bear anymore. If nothing still seems to work
and you can’t take it anymore then you can get a divorce.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Dating
a married man is a sin, and not just one, but two sins at the same time. You are
committing fornication because the bible says that any sex outside marriage that
is not between a husband and his wife is a sin, and you are also aiding
adultery. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">As
a good Christian girl, you might just want to stare clear from dating a married
man because you would be committing a very grave sin against your body and I don’t
need to remind you that your body is the temple of the Lord; so you are
basically defiling the Lords temple.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Let’s
not also forget about karma. Karma, they say, is a b*tch and you do not want to
mess with her. As a good Christian girl, you do not want another girl dating
your husband when you get married, so why do you want to do the same to another
woman’s husband. It is not just right. But I have also heard stories of good
girls who got married virgins (meaning that they never ever dated a married
man) and their husbands are still compulsive cheats. So you just have to pray
to the Lord. Getting married to a husband who has not and would not cheat on
you is very rare but possible. So just have hope and hang in there my good
girls. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Well,
well, well. Dating a married man is no big deal. You just have to be really
careful so that you won’t get caught by the man’s wife because the day that happens,
get ready for your first acid bath.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">They have the money so it’s no
biggie to them. Just satisfy them and they satisfy your bank account. It is a
pretty simple transaction, if you are a bad girl tho. They buy you designer
wears, change your clothes, take you on exotic and luxurious trips and
generally make you feel happy. You get to date a man, a real man and they are
usually very wise, so that’s an added bonus. They introduce you to other rich
people and that’s how you start getting your ‘connection’ which everybody needs
in Nigeria.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Whether
you date a married man or not, your husband would still cheat on you because
you know what; men are cheats and also scums. So if my husband is still going
to cheat on me in the future, why don’t I enjoy another man’s wife. It’s a pretty
logical line of argument, don’t you think?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Here’s
my advice to my baddies in the house; as a bad girl dating a married man, try
not to get pregnant because that is when you would know that a sugar daddy can
also be bitter. And also if you have the idea at the back of your mind that he
is going to leave his wife of 20+ years for you who he just met months ago then
you are on another level of stupid. Married men NEVER EVER leave their wives. So
just enjoy your sugar baby status and find a boyfriend at the side who you will
get married to when you are done with the sugar baby life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">To
be honest, I do not know. Dating a married man has its pros and cons and I am definitely
sitting on the fence here. Everybody has one reason or the other for doing a
thing. You might be dating a married man because you are financially incapable
of providing for your ‘basic’ needs, (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Notice
the emphasis on this ‘basic’, Iphone X, 100k weave, etc. are not basic needs
ooo</i>.) no problem, more power to your elbow dear. You might be dating a married
man because you just like older married men; my sister may God help your
ministry. You may even be dating a married man because all your friends are
doing it and you do not want to be left out; madam peer pressure, continue oo. Whatever
your reasons may be to date or not to date a married man, just be careful out
there and make sure you really think it all through before starting or
continuing. Good luck out there my baddies and goodies. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> Hey fam, welcome back to my blog. And if it’s your
first time here, you are also welcome and I hope you come back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">So today’s blog post as the title suggests, is on a
bunch of stereotypes that, in my opinion, need to go. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">What’s
a stereotype?</span></i></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> A Stereotype is a preconceived notion,
usually about a specific group of people. It is the prejudicial believe that
because a person belongs to a particular group, then such person behaves and has
the same character trait as the people in that group. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Are
all stereotypes negative</span></i></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">?</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> No,
not all stereotypes are negative, some are actually positive and complimentary but
people still take offense when complimented with a positive stereotype. An example
of a positive stereotype is 'Asian people do better in school'. I don’t know any
Asian personally but from all the movies I’ve watched over the years, whenever
the assumption is voiced that because a person is Asian then he or she must be
doing well in school, the Asian person always takes offense at such a statement
even though it is true. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">One of the many problems with stereotypes is that even
if it's true in some cases, it's certainly not true in all cases. Most of the
time, when a stereotypical sentence is made, the maker of such sentence is
usually unaware of the fact that the sentence is a stereotype.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">These are some of the stereotypes that I think it’s
about time they stop being said or thought about because times have changed
and such stereotypes don’t apply anymore. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

who smoke and drink do not have good moral: </span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; text-indent: -18pt;">A woman can smoke,
drink, go to clubs and still have good morals the same way a man can. We are in
the 21<sup>st</sup> century, this shouldn’t even be up for debate. Women can do
anything. I have this aunt who smokes and she is working is a reputable firm
and earns a six figure salary. Smoking and drinking doesn’t determine your
morals.</span></li>

I have male friends who are by far cleaner than most of my female friends. Guys

is what the media is always trying to portray. We only hear of the terrorist
attacks that were carried out by Muslims, Studies have shown that terror
attacks carried out by Muslims receive more than five times as much media coverage
than those carried out by non-Muslims in the United States. Analysis of
coverage of all terrorist attacks in the US between 2011 and 2015 found there
was a 449 per cent increase in media attention when the perpetrator was Muslim.
Muslims committed just 12.4 per cent of attacks during the period studied but
received 41.4 per cent of news coverage, the survey found.</span></li>

All I can say is that not ALL of them are loud and dirty. Some are. So please
don’t judge us because when you visited Lagos, you met some really dirty and
loud Yoruba people. First of all what part of Lagos did you go to? You can go
to Ajegunle or Mushin and expect to see tarred roads and clean streets. In every
state, there are dirty parts and then there are clean parts. Next time before
you think of saying ‘All Yoruba people are dirty’ visit places like Lekki or Banana
Island in Lagos and see my Yoruba people thriving,</span></li>

see properly and I needed glasses, meanwhile I could see very clearly, I only
needed glasses because I wanted to be seen as smart. When they didn’t get me
one because I guess they could tell that I was lying (I am a VERY BAD liar), I
bought a cheap one for myself that wasn’t medicated but looked medicated. Needless
to say, teachers started asking me questions in class more than they usually
did. After about two weeks I stopped wearing it and started sitting at the back
seat. The questions were just too much, I couldn’t deal. </span></li>

truth in ways only we can do. Whatever a lawyer does is always within the
law, we (yes we, I will soon become a lawyer so I have to defend OUR honour)
have found a way to use the law to favour our case. I am not saying that there
are no lawyers who lie, trust me, they are, but we should not use the character of one to

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">One year ago today, I decided to embark on my blogging journey and I thank God I made that decision. Yes guys, as the title of the post suggests, my blog turns a year older today. (insert dancing emoji). I am super excited that I have come this far. I know I haven’t been the most dedicated and consistent blogger on the block but at least I am still a blogger and I didn’t quite along the way, I kept on going.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Over the past twelve months of blogging, I have learnt some things that I might not have learnt if I wasn’t a blogger</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">One of the major reasons I decided to
start blogging was to work on my typing. I was a pro at typing with my phone
but once it came to typing with my laptop I was slower than a snail. I remember
my<a href="http://iampase.blogspot.com.ng/2017/03/introducing-me.html"> first blog post </a>, it took me a whole day to type it and I was so tied
afterwards. But now, I am like the Usain bolt of typing (lol). I am happy I took
up blogging.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Being a blogger has thought me how not to compare
myself to other people. During my first five
months of blogging I was so sad and depressed because I felt like I was not
good enough because there were other bloggers whose blogs were a hundred
percent better than mine. I kept on changing my theme, deleting various posts that I thought didn’t fit into my blog and after a while of constantly changing
things, I realized that I couldn’t recognize my blog anymore. Now as I am
typing this, I know I am not the best blogger out there but I am a blogger who
has learnt not to compare herself to other people and who has come to love her
own blog.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

has taught me is how to express myself on paper better. I never had a problem
with expressing myself on paper but blogging has greatly increased this talent
(is it even a talent, lol). <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Hello my beautiful and handsome readers. I hope you will be able to relate to this post because I try my possible best to make all posts relatable. So here goes.<br />
<br />
A lot of people tell me that I am a very unforgiving person and that once someone hurts me I never forgive the person and even though I say I do, I always stop talking to the person.<br />
<br />
There’s something we all fail to understand and this is it: If someone does something once, it’s a mistake. Twice, it’s intentional. Three times, its already a part of the person.<br />
<br />
READ:<a href="https://iampase.blogspot.com.ng/2017/10/the-five-series-five-ways-to-spot-fake.html">How To Spot Fake Friends</a><br />
<br />
If someone hurts me once, I forgive the person even though my trust for that person drastically reduces, I still talk to the person, but then, if that same person hurts me a second time, I am not doing again. I get tired of reliving the same hurt. Come on, there are over seven billion people on this earth, why should I let one person hurt me over and over again.<br />
What pains me the most is that they never ever learn from their mistakes. They read your first forgiveness as acquiescence for future hurts.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Xz-Zi1wvJlA/WqPw77OZYrI/AAAAAAAAA54/4Ww0GIfb2IQ5wFL_Foq5wDzVwfXb2H3ZACLcBGAs/s1600/sea-1337565_960_720.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="635" data-original-width="960" height="211" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Xz-Zi1wvJlA/WqPw77OZYrI/AAAAAAAAA54/4Ww0GIfb2IQ5wFL_Foq5wDzVwfXb2H3ZACLcBGAs/s320/sea-1337565_960_720.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
It’s just really painful to be honest. I love having friends but some people make it so difficult. How can you intentionally decide to hurt a ‘friend’ because you know she’s going to forgive you?<br />
<br />
In order to stay sane and not having to start asking myself questions like 'what did I do wrong?' or 'is something wrong with me, am I a bad person?' I just turn it all off, and move on.<br />
So, whenever I decide to turn off my niceness switch, whenever I decide to no longer allow myself to be susceptible to hurt, I just tell myself that I’m doing the right thing for myself both emotionally and mentally.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I often have people tell me, ‘Bola, I love the way you
walk with so much confidence, the way you enter a room like you practically own
it’. Whenever someone compliments me in this way I always laugh a little inside
because I see myself as the most insecure person ever. I am the kind of person that is more moved by the hate one person shows me than the love ninety-nine people
show me. I am never sure of myself, always second guessing every decision I make and the last thing I consider myself to be is 'confident', but because of how I carry myself, nobody, except my truly close friends, would ever guess that I am insecure. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Hearing people compliment me on my 'confidence' inspired
this blog post today. Today I realized that people are moved by what they see
not by what is truly inside. Every day you hear of celebrities committing suicide
or checking themselves into rehab or a mental home. On TV they look all glamorous,
like they have it all, like the world is their oyster but deep inside they are
the most insecure and unsure people. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">So today, don’t let y</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">our worries and problems so
overshadow you that you forget to smile. The world doesn’t need to know that
you have only a thousand Naira in your bank account, or that you are failing in
school, or that you just had a messy breakup. Today, smile. Even though it seems hard, just smile. Everybody loves a person who smiles and they tend to come
closer to you because they see you as a source of joy, of happiness.</span></div>

know that they are part of my family, matter of fact they made the family but
because of how awesome they are they deserve a separate spot on my list. OMG!
My parents are wonderful people. We fight a lot; they annoy the hell out of me
but I cannot imagine my life without them. My dad is the kind of man that would
sacrifice everything and I mean everything to see his children enjoy. My dad
will do anything for us to have the best education. I can still remember the
day my dad gave me his last five thousand Naira to buy a particular textbook in school, I went to my
room and told God that when I finally make it in life, if I ever neglect my parents, He should
take away everything He has ever given me. My dad is just so wonderful. My mum.
We don’t see eye to eye but I love her with all my heart. She can sacrifice
anything for her children. I remember growing up, I was a very stubborn child
but anytime I annoyed my mom and ten minutes later asked her for money to buy
credit or biscuit she would still give me. I would do anything for that woman.

the <b>wisdom, knowledge and understanding
God has given me.</b> Growing up I wasn’t always the brightest crayon in the
carton. I remember back in SS1 I was asked to repeat a class because I failed
mathematics but I thank God for how everything worked out from that moment
because that was a turning point in my life. To think that the girl who was
asked to repeat a class is now a final year law student. I just thank God for
my educational journey and the wisdom he has given me along the one. When I was
little, I read about the story of Solomon who is the wisest man in the bible
and just wished to have even one quarter of his wisdom. I don’t think I have
that now but I thank God for the level of wisdom He has given me.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

have asthma or any respiratory condition, please endeavor to always carry
your inhaler wherever you are going. If it is possible to put it on that rope
used to hang I.D cards on the neck (I have no idea what it is called), please
do that so that you could always have it with you. And always take a cardigan and
a handkerchief with you even though it doesn’t look like you would use them. prevention
is better than cure. <b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">2017 was not the best year but one of the things that
kept my going was good music. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">I became a fan of Nigerian music in 2013 right
after I was out of secondary school while patiently waiting for ASUU to call
off their strike so that I could enter the university. Before then I only
listened to American music and I was and still am obsessed with Taylor swift’s
music and Eminem’s rap.</span><br />

is just something about it that gives me hope. <i>wizzy boy make me dance, daddy yo make me dance.</i> I am dancing right
now just thinking of this song. The video is also mad, the way they were
dancing as if they were high on cocaine or something, it was just too
energetic. I am not really a fan of wizkid I am more of a Davido fan (wizkid’s
fans abeg don’t take it personal) but I found myself liking this song to the
point that anytime it came on happiness would fill me from nowhere.</span></li>

by Kiss Daniel: </u></b>kiss Daniel can do no wrong to my ears. He could
literally release a song of him singing trash and it would still make the list.
The first time I heard this song I was at a restaurant eating and it legit made
the food more delicious. <i>Somebody call
the popo on Fiona, shawty be freaky in the eyes of beholder. One more wine and
it’s over. </i>I remember listening to this song while reading for my exams
which I aced and I can’t help but think maybe it had something to do with this
song. I really hope he releases more hits next year with all that is currently
going on with him and his record label.</span></li>

song came out late last year but I fell in love with it this year. The first time I heard it, I cried a bit
because of how much I loved it. It has this smooth and wavy sound. If ever I finally
decide to learn Igbo, it would be because I want to be able to understand his
music. <i>Nwanyi oma ah, I’m ready for the
night oh, I’m ready for tonight oh, come make I show you light oh. </i>I would
wake up singing this song partly because I loved it so much and mostly because I
slept listening to it. </span></div>

</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; text-indent: -18pt;">I am not a fan of Yemi, matter of fact, I hate her music. Her lyrics are
terrible, she repeats the same thing and not in a cool way like Wizkid did in
Daddy yo and all her songs sound alike but I found myself liking this song. <i>if my body dey dance, my head dey dance oh,
hmmm, na him dey knack am, knack am. </i>I guess I feel in love with this song
because of a video of this pregnant woman who was dancing to the song on a treadmill
in a really sexy way. The song is cool and the best song, in my opinion, that
Yemi Alade has.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I might have saved the best for last. Davido gave us hits back to back this year,
from ’If’ to ‘fall’ to ‘Like dat’ then the almighty ‘fia’. I feel in love with
this song at first listen.<i> sukura kilo ko
si o, suku shaker, I am shoe maker, caroline save your drama. I don’t need it
for the soap opera. </i>And I just learnt today that shuku shaker is a nickname
for a type of heels that was worn in Nigeria by our mothers back in the days
and so when Davido said <i>Sukura kilo ko si
o (Sukuru what do you want?) </i>and then he said <i>Shuku shaker, I am shoe maker, </i>he was telling sukura that does she
want that particular type of shoe because he is a shoe maker and he could make
them for her. This little fact made me
love the song even more.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">Hello my beautiful and handsome readers. Happy new month guys, it is the last month of
2017 and it is also my birthday month 💃💃!! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">Welcome back to my blog
and if this is your first time on my blog you are welcome and I hope you enjoy
my blog so much that you would want to subscribe.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">First of, let
me address the elephant in the room- my absence for so long. It’s been over two
months since I last posted anything on the blog and this is because I have
really occupied with school and life generally. I am currently in my final year
in the university and as expected it’s been really hectic. But
now I am back and ready to blog.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">So straight
to today’s blog post. We are all aware of the fact that Christmas is just around
the corner and just four days after Christmas I would be leaving the teenage
zone and becoming an adult. I am pretty psyched about turning 20; I literally
cannot wait to be done with being 19. For real, 19 is a really weird and unsure
age and whenever I am asked my age I always say 20 because 19 just sounded
unsure.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">So here is
the wish list of an adult-to-be. And because Christmas day and my birthday are
so close to each other I am going to make just one wish list for both of them. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<b><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Why am I compiling a
wish list?</span></i></b><span style="line-height: 115%;"> Well, it is honestly because of two reasons.
Firstly, because I might have someone reading this who desperately (desperately
is such a funny word😁😅) wants to get me
something for my 20<sup>th</sup> birthday which is on December 29<sup>th</sup>
and doesn’t know what to get me, so this would serve as some kind of a guide to
that lovely person or people. And secondly because a lot of people are doing it
and I thought, what the heck!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">So here are
five things I would love to get on my birthday or for Christmas.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="text-align: left; text-indent: -18pt;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li> <b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">A NEW PHONE</span></b><span style="line-height: 115%; text-indent: -18pt;">:
This is always number one on any list. I desperately need a new phone because I
now have this newly found hatred for my current phone, the phone just annoys me
and I don’t know why. If there’s anyone
currently reading this who wants to get me a new phone I would love to get an
Iphone 6+ or an Iphone 7+. A plus (+) because I love big phones.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left;">
<b><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Why an Iphone?</span></i></b><span style="line-height: 115%;"> Well, because I am tired of Samsung products and Iphone cameras are
always the bomb and I need to take more lit selfies in 2018. So anyone getting
me an Iphone would not only make my birthday/Christmas but would also make my
2018.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

wearing designer clothes, make up on fleek, if you don’t smell nice. So
number two on my list is a designers perfume in particular the <b>Giorgio Armani Si Perfume</b>, I have read
a lot of fantastic reviews about this perfume and I would love to smell like
‘heaven’ as one the reviewers expressed. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

you are probably wondering what or who that is. Well, Arami is a natural
skincare product line. They sell the most wonderful black soap (Onyx Body
Polish) and the best and kind of only Glow oil I have tried on my skin. I have
used their product once and I love the way it made my body feel. I am all for
natural product nowadays because we only get one skin in this life so while
harm it by bleaching or whitening it with harmful substances. So for anyone
reading this and is moved to get me all the Arami products, the onxyx body
polish, the glow oil, the hair and body food and most especially the glow
scrub, I would love to that. You can contact Arami on Instagram

this is kind of funny because getting me the other things listed on my list

never underestimate the power of intercessory prayer. For another person to take
time out of their busy schedule to kneel down and pray to God for me would
really make my day. I would really appreciate this if someone reading this
would pray for me (Good prayer oo) on my birthday.</span></li>
