My First Blog Post!📝
a

I'm 19 years of age and I live live life as it comes. I figured it shouldn’t be, because somehow what you plan for always comes true most especially when you believe in it. When I was much younger, I’d write little stories (fictions) and combine characters in it as well as draw these characters in the little book I carried everywhere… At this stage, I should have known that I found comfort in writing but I didn’t think it was a thing because I lived life as it came and somehow I let it go. Moving on, people would always say “you talk too much” I came to believe this and I started to think that I’d make a great presenter. Oh yes, I’d make a great presenter because you are what you believe in💚 As time went on, I began to see that I could actually do the talking but I could express myself a lot more in writing. Now, this is a “thing”. When I realized I expressed myself and my interest in writing better, I then thought to create a blog but I wasn’t convinced at the time… “MY EXPRESS“. The name came from the sole interest I had at that instance and also from the encouragement I got from Mum ❤️ and my role model • Michelle Dede💚 Before I created the blog on this date which marks the launch of my blog(05/01/21), I had to deal with low self esteem and no confidence from my edge when I saw people my age writing and I thought I couldn’t match up to their potential, that’s how my Mum and Michelle Dede came in. I’m really grateful to them for all of the support they showed me. This blog is born out of Passion, Confidence, Confirmation and Purpose. I’m making this priority. I’d be writing and sharing content on ~Art ~Lifestyle~Fiction/Movies ~Food and ~Relationships. I’m really looking forward to impacting someone, somehow someway. Be my guest as I take you round a tour on My Express!

When should you cry?

Pre note : I had already gotten half way in this particular write-up when I came across a tweet made by some guy on how he thinks that women who cry during their period are "pussies", in his words. I'm not sure if that was a coincidence but it'd be addressed. I guess when you want something, the universe works in your favour. This is my bread being buttered with his statement verbatim.     " The red flag I can never tolerate in a woman is if she cries during her period. It's jus stomach ache ffs, go drink salt and 7up or somn".     •A conversation between myself and another party. Me : tears taste like salt Other party: why are you tasting your tears? Me : It was flowing too much and was uncontrollable, I had to. Other party: what's making you cry? Hard girls don't cry, be strong. Me : (repeating after her) "Hard girls don't cry" but I'm not a hard girl, I'm me. Other party : then you're weak. Me : Gbam! Waha

Memories are not enough: Let's try another way

Memories are not enough! Let's try another way..... I was a little girl when I got into the higher institution, no clear directive just a mission to read, settle and graduate. The time has passed now, "4" years countedly gone in the twinkle of an eye.     Schooling in a private yard wasn't difficult as opposed to staying home, the fun was a hundred percent, irrespective of the strict and coercive rules which somehow made the days even more exciting. Looking back, I marvel at the rules broken by people or even by myself in my own terms. Lessons learnt, maybe not from personal experience but from others cannot be forgotten.      Being a person who enjoys staying in front of the camera, I have a hundred and one pictures of myself with 60% of my coursemates, it wasn't a conscious effort but it did happen. Albeit I'm glad. Going through an album, I cannot help but welp at the pictures I took back at school. These pictures are refreshing memories and rec

•Getting over him ^_^

Getting over someone you are into is a huge task, it's almost a difficult process and at the moment of desperation may seem impossible.      Technically, it took me 3 months of shedding hot tears, overthinking, soliloquizing and self doubt before I got over this person.    We had been speaking everyday during the lockdown. We were like 2 peas in a pod and more. As time went on, I started liking this guy. I excused myself severally saying "there's no way I'd talk to someone everyday in a year and not catch feelings, I'm human". I sensed a different energy from him that seemed to me as feelings at some point and oh well I didn't do my proper investigation before concluding and by then it was already late. I had fallen head over heels. 🤸🏽‍♀️    I made my intentions known to him and he told me blatantly that he didn't feel the same way. Now the mistake I made was not moving on immediately and laying my feelings instead I kept hopes that maybe
