Hiatus
It has been a while since I posted new stuff on blogger. It is because lately I've been engaging in a lot of brain storming activities.
The good news is that I am back, with fresh ideas to keep you guys entertained.
While I was on hiatus, I learned a lot. The skills I obtained will enable me secure a career in this competitive world. Autodidact-ism is a virtue instilled in me. I teach my self things. I don't really on tutors or people to guide me. Once I have mastered a concept, my mind generates new ideas pertaining that field.

She
Her deceptive good looks
Her charming sweet voice
Draw you closer with uncertainty of what is going to transpire
She resembles a character from a horror movie
You can tell this by the way she’ll rip off your heart
Leave a wound in it
And her unapologetic nature when all this happens
Good girl gone bad
She’s a new version of old her
Guiding & Counseling Office
Life can at times be unfair. When you suddenly become an
over-thinker, people relate that to a mental disorder. Those close to you
recommend therapy sessions. This because of how you’ve been acting lately.
Anxiety, unsocial nature and lack of sleep characterize all you’ve been going
through.
May be you don’t need a therapist; may be it’s just them who
are acting like they care so much about what goes on in your life. You’ve been
through this before. You know how to cope up with stress. All you need is
sometime alone.
The moment you step into the guiding and counseling office,

Fight Night
I guess it's time I bring my Mike Tyson boxing skills to the
ring. My opponent looks senile. This is going to be a great fight. Let the best
team win (mine). I trained hard for this; I almost broke my backbone in the
process.
The referee shouldn’t be bias. He should do his job
professionally unless he wants a knock out from me. The fans are cheering as I
enter the ring. My management team are psyching me up as my opponent also steps
up to the stage.
Round one is almost over. My opponent won’t let me win. I
decide to employ my Mohammed Ali skills

Lights, Camera, Action
A camera is a technological piece that captures the most
intense human moments. Earlier before the advent of photo shop, photos used to
be like art; they were so original; everything captured was real. I can’t blame
modern advancements in the photography industry. People nowadays are profit
driven even; they tend to modify something bad to make it look good.
I want to bring the 1990’s photography back. Where models were
smartly dressed contrary to the current modeling industry in which models pose

Good deeds are worth the Effort
It feels great when you help someone out. They in turn say "thank you" as an appreciation of your assistance. The smile on their faces is symbolic to how you've made them feel. No one will give you a Nobel prize for this. You will earn bigger things from your doings in a manner you won't realize.
My grand mother taught me the virtue of being generous. The little you have, share it with others. Seeing others happy as you are will make a difference in your life.
Continue being of help to others.

Software Bug
Dear Software company,
There is a bug in my software. I installed it in my new Mac book laptop as expected but the results are annoying. The program automatically shuts down when I'm in the middle of something. I can't blame the hardware of my computer since it is still new. You guys also indicated the software requirements a computer should meet on your website. My computer passed that test.
I've been trying to get in touch with you guys but no one responded to my mails.
I'm kindly requesting for your assistance.
Yours Sincerely ,
Software consumer.
My Music Playlist
Music is like a drug to me. Especially when the song I'm listening to speaks to my soul. I feel renewed every time I listen to it.
To make this possible, my music playlist has always been there to provide me with best quality material. I actually don't need to praise the playlist itself because it is a damn application controlled by me. Usually, songs in my playlist have a validity period after which they become boring and crap to me. The maximum time frame for any music to stay in my playlist is 3 weeks.
Whenever I listen to new music for the first time, I put my critic cap on and gauge it according to it's relevance. If it is a hit, definitely the time frame for it to stay in my playlist will be longer. The reverse applies to less catchy songs. I guess that is my philosophy.
Gambling Theory
"It is either you are brave or you are stupid." Decision making is vital in gambling. Though it might be thought provoking, your bank account is at stake here. You either win or loose. Don't feel bad after loosing because no one will actually feel sorry for you. Subsequently, don't get to excited when you win; the game is just getting started. You know the game: Play by the rules.
Next time you think about throwing away all money you tirelessly worked for, try watching some gambling movies or even picture your life before and after the gamble.
Wish you luck!
Voices in my head
Something is not right. My attitude suddenly changed. What happened to the go-getter / down-to-earth spirit I had? Why am I staying up all night doing nothing just staring at my laptop? Should I listen to the disruptive voices in my head telling me to throw in the towel?
I have come this far by grace. I've covered miles just to be in my current position. It is a climb; I need to press on; I need to find a reason to cherish every success I make.
Focus will help me get there. Distractions will lead me to failure. One thing for sure is that I was destined to be great. This trait flows in our family; from my great grand-father to my grand-father to my dad then to me.

Life of a campus Girl
It is hard being a girl in a big institution like the
university. The pressure that surrounds girls there is too much. Looking good
is not an option; It’s mandatory, or else you will be on every one’s lips.
Girls in campus tend to be trendy. They update their closets
on weekly basis. A new comer joining campus who isn’t used to this, will find
this absurd. With time, she quickly adapts to that life. Some will even do
anything just to get the money needed for them to look good like others. This
‘gold-digging’ trait
Alphabetical Slaughter
I use metaphors in my words. You can tell my sentences are
full of similes. Whenever I want to sound poetic, I use clever internal rhymes.
Double entendre is my every day literal tool. I don’t want to sound like
Shakespeare; Let me create my own English vocabulary list.
I’ve always admired Oscar Wilde: The Importance of being
Earnest play. He actually knew
The Life of Rappers without music
Ever imagined the life of a rapper without music? Some would
be gangsters, psychopaths, actors/ actress, drug-lords etc. After listening to their music, one can tell
their life is pretty dark.
Most of them who are lyrically gifted symbolically portray the
life they went through before fame. Drug abuse and violence are among the major
themes in their songs. When you listen to this conscious music,

Why Am I so Anxious?
A sudden shift of mood freaks me out. A slight change in my
heartbeat gives me sleepless nights. I’m officially on Team-Insomnia
guest-list. Lately, I’ve not been experimenting on dangerous stuff that would
get me high. In fact, I’ve been sober for the last three months.
I’m drug-free and stress free at the same damn time. There is
nothing on my mind right now that would make me anticipate for something. Being
a loner taught my heart a virtue known as patience.
May be I should visit the

Cholesterol Free
I am not a nutritionist in any way; all I care for is my
health. Of late, I’ve been busy doing stuff that won’t let me have a lunch
break. You can’t imagine what I eat for lunch on a daily basis: Canned food.
I’ve gained a lot of weight and that really scares me. My
tight schedule can’t allow me to hit the gym and get my abs back. Ladies love
my sexy body; but what I’m turning into will make them loose interest in me.
My resolution:
No canned food, cholesterol free nutrition and more vegetables
in my diet. I’m certain that in few days, I’ll have my metal body back. And to
the ladies who always hit on me, this time they’ll have sleepless nights.

Visitor’s Book
I’m on the guest
list, so it is mandatory for me to sign this damn book. “Sign here sir”, the
book is handed to me. These are like simple rules. You ought not to break them.
Some ‘aliens’ (or should I call them human beings) tend to ignore petty issues.
They bring politics into their day to day encounters. Instead of signing the
visitor’s book peacefully,
International Accent
I went to India, and came back with a fake Indian accent.
How would I prove to my friends that I travelled abroad? I think my accent
started developing when I was at the Indian Airport. I kind of adapted their
way of living. Six months of staying in a foreign country is worth experience.
Recently, a boy we schooled in the same school with finally

Application Letter
Hey,
The reason I’m dedicating this letter to you is because of the
way you’ve made me feel lately. Your presence is all I need. Every time you are
around, my mood quickly changes; I become a lot human when I’m around you. My perspectives
towards love broaden each time you call me just to check on how I’m doing.
I know this might be insane, but girl,

The Bro Code
Guys, like girls, also have their own brother-hood stuff. This
is a collective boy-group with almost same interests and opinions. They agree
on almost everything and whenever a member of that group has relationship
problems, they quickly give him advice.
It is cool to know who your brothers are. They stick to the
bro code which is some weird rule: my problem is our problem.
Next time you get into a fight with your girl, your bros will
surely help you with that. Just count on them, your problem, is their problem!

3 A.M
At this time of the morning, my mind is so fresh. My long-term
and short-term memories are on power-saving mode. I need to feed my brain with
something different; something complicated. I want to perceive further insights
towards a particular subject matter. I want to have a better understanding to a
given subject matter.
I should start off with Mathematics. Solving numerous problems

My Vato
“A friend in need is a friend in need”. Consistent friendships
are hard to build. The yardsticks to awesome relations are rather complex but
human-driven. We choose friends for ourselves. If they aren’t worth our time,
we drop them ASAP.
My best friend is someone I trust; someone who can lend me
money when
Take It to the Floor
Get up and dance with me. Let me show you some cool
moves I learnt the other day. On the dance-floor, my magic locomotion and
movements leave the crowd begging for more.
I’m not bragging. Dancing traits
flow in my veins. Speaking of inheritance, I treasure

Levels
I'm elevating. I am anew version of old me. My future is getting brighter every time I aim higher. My visions are well stated. My attitude towards life is positive. I have this feeling that I'm already there; at the top; I have achieved a lot.
Sunday
The weekend is
almost over. I got few hours to treasure before it ends. Sunday afternoons are
beautiful. It is so peaceful when you spend the day alone, giving room for
meditation. Most probably, you wouldn’t want to spend it at home. An open
place, free from distractions like tall buildings and people can do. This is
that time when you reflect on how your previous week was and focus on
strategies to build the upcoming week.

Mushrooms
My eyes are heavy
My mind is loaded
I am a victim of over-working
I just can’t take a break
This guilt inside me won’t let me
This motivation inside me keeps me going
I’m turning into a freak
Insomnia opportunist
Mausoleum
Good things in life happen when you are six feet
under; buried and long forgotten. You ran the race, finished it in time and
what is awaiting you is a better spot in paradise. You’ll sit next to angels,
singing praises as you reminisce a life well spent on earth.
The cemetery is where we frequently visit, trying to
pay respect to our beloved ones who left us. They are the fallen soldiers. A
century passes and they become our ancestors. We were made from the mad; in the
same made we will be buried. Why fear death? You should also fear existence.
When I die, I want my art to be preserved in a
Odd Future
The
knowledge of the existence of other weird kids out there strengthens me. It
reinforces the Keep-on-moving spirit in me. They live so different; their
thoughts are so creative. I keep stalking their Wikipedia pages to learn
more about them. How they cope up with negativity in this world? How they
emerged the best?
The good
thing is that we are age-mates. I get jealous of them at times. They make good

Long-term Mentality
I still

Stuck in

Naive and afraid of the dark

memories creep into my mind every time I see you
I try to

Tried
