Someone made a post saying that first daughters are always at loggerheads with their mothers.

I beg to disagree because my mum? She is the elder sister I do not have.

No matter how much airtym I have in my phone, it always gets exhausted whenever I am on call with my mum.

With her, we never run out of gist!

I love how we perfectly understand each other and the relationship we have.

I was discussing with a church member who is an ex- seminarian sometime last week.

I told him that May devotion has come to an end and not even once did I see him in church for the prayer.

He sighed and told me that n'ihe nwoke bu n'isi akaria.

He is married now with kids and family responsibilities.

The church is just a walking distance from his house but he can't remember the last time he went there.

He bared his mind to me and complained of struggling to say the rosary and finding it difficult to go to the chapel to visit the Blessed sacrament.

He admitted to me that saying the rosary helped him a great deal in life and he never knew that a time will come when praying the rosary will be a struggle for him.

He wasn't pleased with the way his prayer life was going and I totally understand.

I feel this way sometimes too.

Sometimes, life's problems become so overwhelming and challenging that it begins to question your sanity.

You will try to pray but you realise you can't concentrate.

You close your eyes but all you see in that moment are the piles of troubles and battles you have to fight.

In such situation, what do you do?

In my case, whenever this happens, I see it as a temptation and refuse to give in.

When I am short of what to say while praying, I resort to thanking God or just singing praises.

If that one fails, I start conversing with God as I would do with my friend i.e not kneeling or closing my eyes. Just sit and bare my heart and worries to him.

The first step to overcoming this feeling is to admit first of all that something is wrong and you need help.

Then go ahead to ask for help and watch God come thorough for you.

Trust me, God sees these things. He may just be waiting for you to ask and boom! Your help is here.

Warm Regards♥️

I am learning a lot in this course I am doing and I am so excited about it.

You get to practice what you have learned and it helps the new knowledge to stick.

Yesterday night, I learned about Optimism bias and being optimistically realistic.

That same yesterday, I learned about Buffer which is a helpful tool for mitigating issues related to slowdowns in the progress of a project.

Today, I learned how to create a project plan based on a project schedule that lists all of the milestones, tasks and deadlines for the project and clearly outlines the people responsible for each task.

I did this using the Gantt chart infused in a spread sheet and I am so happy.

I was made to understand that Gantt charts give project teams a visual representation of project tasks, due dates, durations and milestones.

I am pumped!

There is this feeling that comes with a new knowledge.

It is exciting to learn something new.

Or is it the way I smash both the graded quiz and the ungraded ones; the weekly assignment and the course assignment?

I am good and I know it.

I used my blender to blend cocoyam to thicken my onugbu soup against all the discouragement from my friend.

Now my blender has packed up and I go through untold difficulty now looking for a means to blend my pepper😌

There is nothing as beautiful as self confidence.

You can dress up in the most expensive and most classy attire but if you lack confidence, the person who dressed in rags to the same event with you will steal the show.

I mean, I just came home from work and played out all I did at work in today and laugh want to injure me🤣🤣🤣🤣

It is only high dose of confidence that will make someone do those things and I have abundant supply of it.

I love my life.

So people are gradually appreciating back rolls/love handles and then here is me who has worked tirelessly to eliminate mine.

I still don't love those back rolls.

I honestly envy people who weave their hair and can rock it to any where.

This weaving was just a week old and here was I looking like nwarinwa onye era.

People look at me and wonder why my hair is so rough but how do I start to explore to them that the hair is just 7 days old?

I once asked a hairstylist if the weaving can be trimmed after just to ensure it lasts long, ọ si m mba🤣

It is only poor self image and confidence that will blind a woman enough not to know that she deserves a better treatment from her partner.

How your partner constantly disrespects you and you stay put in the relationship amaze me.

Is that how much you love yourself?

Nne m, you deserve better. Inugo

It was the peak of the rainy season.

As she made to retire for the night after checking to be sure everywhere is locked up, she heard a sound.

It didn't sound real to her. Maybe her imagination was playing trick on her, she thought.

She made to lay her head down on the well laid bed and there it was again; that same sound.

Terrified, she stood up.

Searched for her mop stick in the dark and armed with it, she advanced towards where the sound came from.

Forecfully, she parted the curtains.

The room was empty. Everything in place. No sign of an unusual movement whatsoever.

With a deep sigh of relief and reassured that she was overthinking things, she made her way to her room.

Half way there, it came again.

That sound; like a thud and then the shattering of glasses!

Now she was certain this noise is real.

With the last stroke of bravery she could muster, she tiptoed to the kitchen where the noise came from, armed with the mop stick.

And there it was.

A figure whose back faced her.

Noticing a presence, the figure turned swiftly and with an evil smile started advancing towards her.

Helpless, she let out a loud scream and booom!

She passed out.

With what I read today, I don't think I will be able to look at posts asking people to mention their business ideas and get sponsored or posts asking people for business ideas that a certain amount can foot.

I never knew a time will come when people will proudly steal another's business idea and feel no remorse about it simply because you have money to give the person a certain percentage.

That's witchcraft.

In line with the World Dental Health Day 2023, some dentists from the teaching hospital came to talk to us about oral hygiene and dental care.

You know the way you search for something online or watch a reel and Facebook keeps recommending them to you based on your likes and current search?

Good!

This my friend recently got a loan from one of these loan apps and guess what! His Facebook timeline is littered with different ads from different loan apps 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

He doesn't like it and it is making him feel perhaps and nevertheless.

It feels like mkpari to me🤣🤣🤣. It tastes like insult!

Yesterday, something happened in my compound to once again buttress the point that our safety and well-being is not only because we are careful.

My neighbour's son fell off the balcony from the first floor of the building.

This is a boy of 5 years; not like he is a toddler who didn't know the danger of climbing the protector at the balcony.

The parents were inside and just like a movie, he slipped and tumbled over and landed on the floor.

The good thing is that he fell with his side and so had just a bruise on his forehead.

I don't know how that happened but all I can say is that it was a miracle.

Falling off a height such as that is enough to unalive someone but this boy didn't sustain any strong physical injury.

I have tried to imagine what would have happened if he fell with his head or had broken his spine.

If something had happened to him, we would have heard people calling his parents negligent as they called Davido and Chioma during Ifeanyi's. But I know this family and the woman never takes her eyes away from her children.

God came through once again and showed himself.

Yesterday, the teacher in me told the children in my compound that I will do lesson for them when I am well rested.

I just felt like doing it and I don't know why because it is extremely hard for me to teach those tiny humans.

The plan was to go to their house and teach them.

I was watching a movie hours after I told them when I heard knocks on my door.

I opened and behold, these tiny humans had invaded me.

The oldest said they came for the lesson I promised.

Truth be told, I didn't have a clue as to how to go about it but I sha did something.

I drew basic shapes for her and told her to redraw them herself and name them accordingly.

She did marvellously well in them except for cube and cuboid which she didn't quite get.

They went home and came back again to ask for another lesson.

This was when I knew that I had brought an ant-infested firewood home.

I promised to come meet them later in the evening so we can learn three letter-words.

I kept to my promise and this girl answered, spelt and wrote these words perfectly well.

I felt really good in my spirit yesterday seeing how happy and eager she was to learn.

Whatever pushed me to teach them, I do not know but just as always, I felt fulfilled doing so.

Teaching doesn't have to end with your students in the classroom. It goes way beyond that.

I was with walking down the street with someone yesterday when I stopped to buy biscuits for the little children in the compound.

I do this Whenever I feel like it.

This guy asked me who the biscuits are for and I told him.

You know what he told me?

He said I should really be mindful of how often I buy gifts for little children so that I don't "fall" pregnant

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It was so funny to hear him say such honestly.

Pregnancy can not fall from heaven nau. I no be Virgin Mary

Working from home is so sweet and fun.

For once, I am so grateful for a platform where we can connect with people without being physically present with them.

These past few weeks of teaching from home has been amazing.

I don't have to wake up early morning, I don't have to iron a work outfit or dress up.

Just be decently dressed and that's all.

Out of all the days I have had to teach from home, it is today that I am most grateful.

The rain came very early in the morning and messed up the weather and I had two classes - one for 12 and another for 2pm.

Imagine having to wake up and make your way to work in the rain🤦

I also love how it affords one the opportunity to deliver tasks in the most comfortable way.

But all these being said, I still think working away from home is also a good thing.

It affords you the opportunity to dress up, go out, meet real people outside, connect and network.

There is a sense of fulfillment that comes with going out in the morning and coming back in the evening.

God knows how lazy I would be to dress up and leave the house if I work permanently from home.

In all, there is a place for flexibility. A bit of working from home and a bit of working away from home.

How I appeared in class today👇👇👇
