Hey check this!

Phewww. It is Tuesday afternoon and here am I writing Monday's post. What can I say? I sincerely apologize for the delay.

First things first. My heart goes out to kenya as they go through these trying moments as a nation. Evil people are everywhere but good will eventually overcome.

The Westgate incidence has left me with some sort of phobia for Shopping centres. I see my monthly window shopping pilgrimage to Shoprite coming to a slow end. I think I will make do with shopping online for now.

In other news, today being 24th September I'd be attending the Social Good Summit. Every muscle in my body is reluctant, but since I know a whole lot of good is going to happen there, I'd be there.

On second thought, we shouldn't give terrorists a chance to infuse fear in us. I think my window shopping pilgrimages will recieve a boost. Infact I'll extend it to Silverbird Galleria.

Nigerian banks: So much hype, so little groundwork.

This events chronicled herein truly occurred as the world spun past this morning. Today I took it upon myself to pay up all individuals and groups I was indebted to. This involved visiting three big time Nigerian banks. These transactions which could have simply been carried out with my PC, had to be done the old school way because online transactions are not common (no one I know has ever used the system), hence it could n''t be trusted. Aside the long queues and the ages it took to get served, these banks are are quite in contrast with what you'd see in the slick adverts on CNN or NTA (Nigerian Banks do ads on CNN). The staff are not that friendly, and you can waste a lot of productive time just waiting for your turn ( I kill time watching TV whenever I visit a bank) In one of the Banks I visited, (this bank boasts of ''Pan- African ess'' ) the bulk room where I went to pay in money was desecrated with graffiti on the side boards. Yes! Graffiti, scr...

I Did Not Choose This

I did not choose this life This life chose me The work I do now, I do not think I am qualified in any way to do. Perhaps however I underestimate myself (something I do a lot). That I am here now means I have to remain and give my best to it. I do not despair and feel sad that I am a teacher, far from it. Many people may feel ashamed if they were in my shoes, a few other "extra sensitive" people feel ashamed on my behalf and pray I get a more rewarding job. Please, what is more rewarding than seeing a bunch of tiny tots gobbling up every word you spit out? I'm not saying it in a disgusting way. I just mean teaching is a rewarding experience and I don't regret it. I feel it is like a process that is required of me before I'm admitted into the next phase of life. Which perhaps may be parenthood. My experiences as a teacher have taught me patience, perseverance, love and how to accept feedback via non traditional channels. I've learned to repeat something over...
