Something I miss

  It's Day 3 of the challenge now, I am about 2 days late.

I miss not being active on social media anymore, I miss not being so interactive like I was two years ago, I understand that life comes with seasons and I am happy for the season I am in now but at times, I miss the me of then.

Lately, I have found myself missing things and people from years back, I have found myself being recalling things that happened years ago fondly, I have found myself nostalgic and at times, sad.

I miss the Jollof rice and Egg I was given on Wednesdays in secondary school.

I miss the food the canteen woman sells, it always tasted so nice back then.

I miss the innocence of the child I was at Junior secondary school.

I miss the beans and rice we were given in Junior school on fridays.

I miss always running away from cutting grass, I miss being responsible for the rake and handling it over to those cutting grass.

I miss feigning innocence at times so I was thought ignorant and kept from doing some things. (I still do this at times🙃)

I miss the voice of my mother, I miss not having a personal picture with her having grown up now.

I miss God.

April 2021 - All Hail Omokhuwa: the Hair stylist || The Breaking

I matriculated this month and because I could not afford to make my hair, styled my hair myself in the morning before leaving, my mum really wanted to come for my matriculation but somehow fell sick so my elder ones came instead.  Matriculation connotes something of joy to people but I wasn't really happy, I felt shame and at the same time, I did not post anything because I wanted to keep my life private however, I posted a picture due to my hair, I wanted people to see the beauty but unfortunately, I had not taken any picture without the cap and gown for my hair. The picture I posted👇 This is a spillover for you. 🥰 Despite all this, this was a very depressing month for me, I was going through a lot of things and not talking to anyone about it, it messed up with me a lot, and at times, messed up with my relationship with people. I was reading something into what was not. I had days where I would cry endlessly and it always transited into other ...

February 2021: I have to leave Landmark University! || The Breaking

I had mixed feelings about being in LMU, people would see me as my brother's sister, those who were keen on the information and I would just be Elisha's sister, in a sense to them. A good name makes way, yes but we went to the same secondary school as well.  I had some assignments God had given to me before now as well which was to be online, I had also started a #learndailychallenge on twitter and without a gadget, it seemed I would not be able to do them till much later, I did not mind not having a phone, I just did not know how things will work out.                                         *** Although it was a time of bliss for the two weeks I stayed, I was in pain at certain periods of time in that first week and when I felt overwhelmed, I either laid on my bed and cried or went to the bathroom. I was tired, this was the second university I would be in. The next week, I went to t...

A New Year Push

Happy New Year! 🎊 It's a new year and I am quite sure some of us have written our new year resolutions forgetting the one we wrote last year, 2021, that we could not accomplish. For some people, t hey are still working on their new year plans while some others have decided that New year resolutions are nothing and so they will not plan. A new year means different things to people. For me, a new year means starting a blog.. a new phase of taking my writing to an even larger audience, Jesus advised me to by the Holy Spirit. So, if anything, we have him to thank for this.  I am Omokhuwa, Omokhuwa is an Edo name and it means Child is wealth. I am basically telling you that I am wealth seeing as I am a Child. I am a writer, a student, a daughter, a sister, a friend, a teacher, an influencer and Jesus's Bride amongst other things. Once again, It is  a new year and this new year will come with prophecies as with previous years, prophecies that if not built on, will remain only in a ...
