Yo!

Done with exams, so happy!
I've spent yesterday and today sleeping, planning my next move and sleeping some more. Spent sometime catching up on everything I missed on everyone's blogs as well and I follow A LOT of blogs, so that was quite a task. I saw this video of Will & Jaden Smith and thought it was really cool...

Honestly I don't have a lot to say really I'm just really tired and sleepy. Been experiencing some random things as well in terms of friendships and relationships with people but c'est la vie. I know we are all going through different things in life and these things affect our thoughts and actions towards others as well so I really don't want to take things too seriously and act out based on how I feel about it either, two wrongs don't make a right. I feel I'm rambling but these are just my random thoughts at the moment and that's that.
What else is new? My diet is changing and I've been listening to a lot of Asa and Fela, I've also been wearing a lot of black and white so don't be surprised if most outfit posts are different variations of the trend. I'm going to Lagos soon! Can't wait, missing everyone so much! I'm quite upset cuz I missed my big cousin's wedding and I was going to be a bridesmaid... boo hoo (.com) Congrats to her and her hubby! I wish them all the best, She's so beautiful! Excuse the quality of the pictures.

Crunch Time

Yes people, It just got real!!

First exam is on Tuesday which explains the lack of content recently due to revision, so I will be MIA till I'm done... DONE with Undergrad

*waves hands to the heavens* Thank you Jesus!

Please pray for me guys, really need it cuz I hate my course but some how I just manage to pull through each time. It's God to be honest, and He won't leave me now. 

My story is still being written, I just have to get through this part of the journey :)

Lots of love & blessings,

Eki 

p.s: excuse the picture, I just had to. One must not take themselves too seriously in life lol x

Where's your Happy Place?

"My point? No matter how bad things get, and no matter how hard and tough it looks like it’s going to get, we have to find that one thing that keeps us happy and alive. Think about a happy place, real or imagined, and hold on to it." 

Got that from here

Feel free to read it but your Happy Place is basically somewhere you go either real or imagined that takes you away from the harsh realities of life for just a few. A place for you to chill and get your sanity back. Kinda like a mini holiday destination cuz let's be honest life really drives us crazy and sometimes we just need to get away.

I've got a lot of happy places simply because they keep me alive and happiness is actually really important to me. Remember the post I did on Negativity? It's all part of it cuz we all need positive energy around us. I'm happiest when I'm with my family, listening to music, night out with family or friends, SLEEPING!, laughing, when I'm in Lagos, I love Lagos. I'm easily amused so I laugh a lot and I'm happy when I'm laughing and thats's one reason why I like the saying "never regret anything that made you smile" or laugh or happy because at least for that moment you felt happiness. x

Hope you enjoyed your weekend, have a great week ahead!

Vanity

I saw this on my friends facebook page today. I don't know if he wrote it himself but I thought I'd share.

"I recall a friend telling me about a man in his neighborhood who became popular for engaging in money rituals just to buy the 80's edition of the Honda Prelude. You wouldn't buy that car for 50k today.
I remember as a kid, my whole street converged to watch a truck deliverd a very large satellite dish to my neighbor's house. Today a dish one tenth that size delivers 5 times the value and is in almost every student's hostel room.
What about the Volkswagen Santana, Mercedes Benz V booth, 505 cocaine, all overtaken by Camry,Honda discussions and Infinity? .... Vanity.

"What is Unseen is Eternal"

2 Corinthians 4:17-18 

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Hey guys! I know I didn't blog today but I thought I'd just leave you with a little something, I came across that today and thought I'd share. I went out with my husband and the canterbury clique yesterday and it was fun! I'm so tired! First time I've actually done anything for halloween and I didn't look to bad. I will do a proper post on it later but yh like I said it was fun, the most fun I've had on a night out in canterbury in a while cuz things always dull here like its almost like a curse. Maybe it's me cuz I don't go out often and when I do go out I pick shitty nights *shruggs* duno but last night was fun! (I've said that like 3 times now lol). 

Speak soon. x

Negativity

OOTD post coming up, Preppy Chic? 

I'm horrible when it comes to coming up with names, I need to work on that.

So do you go to church? if you don't and you'd like to (because it important that you do), click here.

That link will take you to Daystar Nigeria's online live streaming site.

I watch this every sunday, when internet allows me if not I just watch one of the already recorded messages listed there.

Today's service was about negativity, please continue to read more. I believe it will be very helpful and encouraging for anyone reading this.
