Was clearing out the stuff from the cupboards and found an all stash of letters, notes, lyrics, poems, whatevers. 

I honestly can't remember what this was for, but i reckon it was for a Science project? or probably Health Education or maybe a yellow ribbon project. 

This was rewritten from Mambo No. 5. I never realised I was that creative too.

Ladies & Gentlemen

We present to you

'Coming Out Of The Tunnel'

One, Two, Three, Four, Five

Everybody in the class, so listen up

To the new we gonna bring to you.

I must tell you that the drugs ain't cool.

Like Heroin, Ecstasy, Ice & Grass 

If you eat too much, your brain will rust.

So here we go.

A little bit of Heroin 

is bad for you!

A little bit of ecstasy 

will kill you too!

A little bit of Ganja

make's a fool

A little bit of Ice 

it ain't no groove.

Jump up and down

and shake it all around

To the left is death

To the right is life.

So choose the path 

and makes it all riht

So you won't regret

till the end of your life.

Chorus.

The End.

NO IDEA WHAT 13 OR 14 YEAR OLD ME WERE DOING FOR THIS RENDITION OF MAMBO NO. 5 TO BE WRITTEN!

Looking Back

Looking back to 8 years ago.... WHEW!  I mean... 8 years. C’mon! Even the front digit of my age has changed since I last blogged on one of my platforms. Lol!

SO MUCH HAS CHANGED! my goodness. I have even went in and out of a relationship.

was scrolling through the entries. I know I wasn’t always blogging here but I’m jealous of my younger self to be honest. There are times where I truly believe my younger self, would be disappointed in me, the me at the moment. Or rather, the me that has struggled the last 2 years.

My younger self seemed to be fearless and relentless about everything. it was just 8 years ago. 8 years is not a really long time, but 8 years ago I fought to be where I was. I fought unapologetically. I fought even when I was unsure.

8 years later, I’m picking up the pieces of myself that was strewn everywhere when I allowed myself to spiral out of control in just 2 years. It was my fault really. I allowed myself to succumb to such depths within myself, allowed helplessness to swallow my thoughts, allowed loneliness to overcome my being, struggled to let my voice be heard, allowed a culture that I have forgotten to shock me through my being and render me speechless.

2020 has been a whole situation on its own. To be honest, let’s sit back and give it a round of applause at the sheer impact it has on all our lives and how in a mere 9 months, so many things have happened and so fast at that. 

But 2020 was also the year that I told myself, enough is enough. Its time to take back my life. One bit at a time. Trust the process and the journey that life has put you on.

10.10.2020

Its October again! And don't you think whoever that's born today has one kind of an epic birthdate?!

I mean... 10.10.2020 ya'll!

October is here again. And life still continues as usual.
