Travelling; Nigerian roads and my rational fears

Image
Feeling : unmotivated Time: 8:04 a.m Hmmn today's gist is about Travelling majorly on Nigerian roads. I think what got me thinking about this is the fact that I'm going home tomorrow for a few days and I'm thinking about how the whole journey will go. Truth Is I hate Nigerian roads. Everybody does actually. As much as I'm the indoorsy type of person, I think a little part of me likes travelling, but for some reason, I'm scared of it. I'm not a pessimist, but I'm really scared of travelling cos I'm scared of accidents. I know, I know, I'm going too far,  but that's what you get when you have a crazy imaginative mind - you imagine the worst and you imagine the best.  Trust me, I'm even better,  God has helped me deal with my irrational fears to a large extent. There was a time me , my dad and brother were walking under a bridge and I was telling my dad to hurry, cos I didn't want the bridge to fall on us. I don't know what I

Feeling: Like a detective. Time: can't remember when I started. It will be wrong for me to go on without saying why I haven't been on here. As much as I'd love to say something fancy like, "oh I'm sorry, I was on a much needed vacation in Hawaii constantly swimming, ordering room service, and having the time of my life. " I can't say that cos it'd be a lie as I was quite sick last week and lazy too (I mean when I recovered), and somehow, there was no ginger AKA nothing to motivate me. Oh and I'm feeling like a detective cos I've been watching "The mentalist. " Anyhoos, today, I'll be talking about a concept I only got to really know about quite recently. Double dating. To be honest, I only saw this in movies, mostly Nigerian I guess. I think I remember one time when I was younger I checked the Internet for the meaning, and I saw something close to "it's when two couples go out on a date" I dunno if it's

The bins don't bite! Make use of them.

Feeling : Sad for no reason Time: 6:50p.m Hi guys, well, I'm not writing this post cos I'm bored or because my CDS (Community Development Service) is something related to environmental blah blah. I'm saying this because the situation we've found ourselves in is quite horrible. Is it because we are Nigerians, or Africans, I don't get why we have to litter everywhere we go. I mean, even educated people do this, TBH it makes no sense to me. When I was growing up, it's one thing I deliberately picked from my dad. One of the billion things I learnt from him. I don't think my siblings even throw things into bins all the time. I remembered one time my mom and I went out, I bought maize or something and when I was done,i held the cob, she told me I should throw it away, but there was no bin know sight. My mom being a clown, waited for me to hold it loosely and then shook it out of my hand😂😂. My mom though. Anyways, I asked a bunch of people why they th
