SIX YEARS

-
So, I can say I officially left secondary school yesterday after six good years. In commemoration with this event, I wrote a poem (which I obviously love doing) to show what it was like for me and some of my classmates alike. Hope you do enjoy this bit and looking forward to better days.

It has been six years,
Six years of some fears,
Six years of getting to meet new people,
Six years of tolerance,
Six years of great perseverance.

Six years of learning,
Six years of discovery,
It's been six years.
Six years of excitement,
Six years of some lasting disagreements.

Six years of achievements,
Six years under the same management.
It has been six years of regular change,
Six years of lasting friendships.
For some, it hasn't been up to six.

Six years of slight rebellion,
Six years that might have been annoying at some point.
Six years of joyous moments for all,
Six years of both good and bad experiences,
It is our six years in just 20 lines.

  Hello peeps, how has the month been? I’ve been playing coward for a while now, let me tell you why. I read a book some weeks back—which I stumbled upon by the way—and I was like it’s something I’d like to make a blog post about but I have been “shifting post” ever since. I have decided to take the bull by the horns and do it anyways.     Hmm!! Where do I start? Okay, this book I’m talking about is titled VIOLENCE written by FESTUS IYAYI and I’d say it was a good—real good—read. The time in which the story was set wasn’t really stated but I figure it was set sometime in the 70s going but the copyright and an account somewhere in the book. The storyline spans roughly 2-3 weeks, my guess being right.     The plot revolves basically around two couples, one affluent and the other poverty stricken. The story tells of the things that being poor can make one do and things that the affluent can use to lure the poor as well. It also shows how manipulative some rich folks can be, going b

GROWING UP BIG FOOT

Howdy mates!!!! Over the past week, I found myself brainstorming on what to write next for this blog. Honestly, blogging the way I do (writing articles) can be much of a work at times. Some days, I just sit in front of my screen, staring blankly, with no idea on what exactly to write about. Other days, I could have numerous ideas floating in my head, sometimes, I’m lucky enough to get most of them down and fleshed up, other times, I get to just a couple and the rest fly away or just don’t seem as interesting as the initial thought. Today’s post is several years old but it still rings true and possesses the same initial vibe it had. And, guess what? It is not as particularly serious as my last couple of posts have been--just something on a lighter note. I currently stand somewhere between  5ft 9’ and 5ft 10’ and by NBA standards, I’m nothing near tall (probably been seeing too many NBA games of recent). Away from the giants and back to the real world, I’m somewhere above average he
