The Year for The Awesome!




This is the first post for this year, don't mind me I took a long hiatus but am back for good. New Year new habits am never going to run off like that again. This New year looks promising and am sure there is never going to be a dull moment. That said have a look why I say so

I will be graduating from the University this year, it is something I look forward to with mixed feelings. Joy of the stress ending vs the feeling of not experiencing enough action. Sometimes I just wonder where I had been in the past four years. Closely tied to graduation is the issue of a Final Year Project aka Thesis or Dissertation. I still haven't concluded on the topic I want to research upon, and the thoughts of crunching numbers and grinding stats send shivers down my spine. However, you will be kept abreast of my how I will slay the beast. After all it was to chronicle the events of my last year in school that I started my blog. So sit back and subscribe and follow me as I go through it all.

It's also this year am going for my National Youth Service! Uhm am not so sure, I think it may be next year. If its this year then this year is going to be loaded. I wonder which end of the world they will post me to (that is if I am to serve this year).

It is also this year my friend and I are going to formally launch our company, I feel excited about it. I have been reading a lot about having a successful business, hence those posts about business. I guess time will soon come to put it into practice.

On a social front, I feel its this year I will put my soul into relationships, caring about my friend, family etc and showing them I do in the normal way.

I have a feeling this year is going to be awesome for us, I don't know about you but I know its going to be real awesome. It is because of this I named this year the year of the "awesome". If you are awesome then it is your year.

Happy New Year


PS I forgot to add; some of my short stories will be out for publication this year too.

God's grace, subway surfers: what's the connection?

I was in church yesterday for Bible study and it was so awesome I had to share. We studied God's grace which in Greek is Charis. Let me digress. I am a big fan of the game subway surfers and I have a score of about 255k to show for the countless hours I have put into the game. When I first launched the game a friend told me his highest score was about 80k, he further told me that he'd seen folks with scores in millions. My ultimate goal then became having a score of at least 300k. It seemed like a tall order. However with time I realised that there were boosts (like surfboards, score boosters, magnets and power ups) and aids to help me achieve my goal. The more I ran, the more boosts I gathered,  the easier the game became and the higher my scores climbed. Now this post ain't entirely about subway surfers. Its also about God's grace. God's grace to us can be defined as the unmerited favor and support God bequeathed upon us. Titus 2:11,12 I paraphrase: The grace

The Small Nigeria in my Classroom

Happy Democracy Day fellow Nigerian democrat. I wish you a prosperous day! I believe there is a micro Nigerian society in my class here in school. This got me thinking about the similarity between the Nigerian Political space and my class, I will attempt to highlight these similarities as honestly as possible without sentiments just as I have observed them. These are just honest observations devoid of any malice. Okay? First of all, let's go tribal. My classroom is divided into these major groups; there are the Yoruba speakers, Nupe speakers, Hausa speakers and the English speakers. Yoruba speakers are those people who speak Yoruba most (they may not even be Yoruba). Nupe speakers are mostly Niger state indigenes, they are quite few but are the next largest identifiable group in terms of cohesion amongst members. Hausa speaking folks are a loose band of people who feel more at ease using Hausa as a Lingua Franca than English. English speakers don't really use any other langua

Falling: Of Risks and Losses

Credit: Jerry X Based on true life events The events described herein happened to a bosom friend of mine. It is with his sad commission that I share this story. He believes that by some stroke of good fortune, this story could be a way out of his sadness. This the story of my beloved friend whom I shall not name to protect his identity. My friend met this lady at a professional engagement about this time last year. In his words “I caught sight of her when she stood up to introduce herself. She just stood out from the crowd. She was not just beautiful but she spoke intelligently. I knew if I did not get her number, I'd have fallen hand”. He further confided that I served as extra motivation. That he knew that if he let her go, I'd not tolerate any made up stories. While I feel humbled, I must clarify that I do not push my friends to go a-philandering. I just detest sloppiness, timidity and inferiority complex. So when my friend brought news of his new acqu
