Weekend Recap (lessons i learnt from my fallen wardrobe)

My Saturday was mostly spent at the studio where i work as i had a show by 3pm and had to prepare so that was how my Saturday ended uneventful. On Sunday however i wake up a little late and then i washed my clothes, cleaned my house and then sat down to enjoy a few movies which i loved. i watched Bad moms and Central intelligence both comedies and i must say i had a good laugh if you haven't watched them you should totally try and go see it. towards evening i went out to hang out a little with my house mates and paint my toe nails with henna. just after i did that i felt my house was boring so i should go dress up and go see my friend unknown that disaster was waiting up for me. when i got to my room the sight that greeted mi was my wardrobe on the floor. my initial reaction was that of shock, fear, and gradually annoyance as i just wondered why that will happen at that point in time but at the end of the day i learnt 3 valuable lessons i would be sharing with you today.

1. It is good to have good people. you see i was very confused about how to get my wardrobe back to workable situation again until i called my housemates who helped me out and even had to call someone else who came over and helped mi fix and return it back to my room.

2. Nothing is too large you just need to start.with all my clothes and shoes on the floor i felt bad having to start all over again with the arrangement but i decided to just start and not leave them on the floor and after about 45mins i was through and it didn't really look like work anymore.

3. Sometimes starting all over  is actually beautiful. after rearranging my wardrobe all over again i loved the new set-up so much that i didn't even think of all the stress i had to go through to get it back to normal again.
    There it goes all the valuable lessons learnt from my ordinary wardrobe.

Thankful Tuesday

Today I am going to be talking about something else am grateful about as part of the build up to my birthday in December. I am grateful today for School and talking about school lectures started yesterday and my timetable is so jammed that i don't even know how to figure it out. well that aside i am grateful for school because it took me a pretty long time to get admission into school and i honestly almost give on ever going to the higher institution. i kept passing my jamb and Post UTME but it seems school wasn't looking forward to receiving me at all. At a point i just gave up and said if i didn't get admission that year i was just going to learn tailoring i already even negotiated with the person that will put mi through before Ya Allah blessed mi and the admission came through.
   When i got in it became another race of trying to read and have a good grade as i had to work extra hard as well. I am so happy i am at my final level now and my prayer is that i finish with a good grade and a result that would be useful to both my religion, my family, myself and my country. So today i am very happy got the admission and that God helped with the study as well as blessing me with good grades. If you are out there and you haven't gotten admission don,t worry you can still be great with or without it, so find something doing and face your study very well when it comes in.

My Changed Up style

I grow up as a girl who would rather spend her money on books than  buy the latest clothes or fancy shoes. It wasn't like i didn't like them or that i was a tomboy, but growing immediately i got into secondary school things became tough as my Dad lost his job and we had to live with the new situation and cope so you see clothes were a luxury. My mum also wasn't so much of a fashionista so there wasn't so much lessons on the fashion and make up aspect of life. I learnt to love my natural and make up free look from a very young age and i became comfortable with it till i graduated from my secondary school. i used powder properly and by myself when i got into SS1 and what was because my school mother insisted. I remember one time in my SS3 when i dressed up and applied a little of makeup for a cultural display and all my classmates were amazed i cloud look that beautiful mas they had all gotten used to natural bare face.
                       My husband was the First person that encouraged me to at least make up once in while as he liked.well i tried my best but i soon gave up too quickly. you see my husband soon got used to it and started to love his wife that well. I have always wanted to be able to dress modestly and still look stylish but most of the style icons i knew just didn't sit so well with me because of my religion i still tried them though and even though i liked it i knew it was against the teaching pof my religion. So when i got married i decided to change up my style and i was also opportune to be following a few amazing Muslim sisters who were both modestly dressed and stylish. So after my internship i got all my clothing essentials and a new style star was born i must say this past few days in school i have really loved my outfits so maybe every Saturday i would be updating you on my favorite looks of the week depending how much i love my outfits for this week though here are the pictures.

Africa or America

Today is a day that would go down in history as one of those when a new president who was called a joker became victorious in a very keenly contested US elections. I honestly do not care about who rules America because as far as am concerned my commitment to Africa is great than that have for America. I  am a Nigerian and by extentension an Africa and thus Africa is always number ONE on mind. As for visisting America well, i guess am the only one who isn't so excited about visiting that country. I always think about African countries when i think of vacations i would like to take later in life with my family.  My mind always wonders to beautiful african places like Gambia, Rwanda, Kenya and Egypt. I hope that one day i can have the time, money and health to vist all the places on my mind that said....there it goes my ramblings for today i hope you have a  great day.
