Do you ever just get tired of living? Things become so hard you wish everything could stop and you could just take a break from existing, the constant late nights and your horrible sleep schedule, you scroll through the internet with no zeal to reply messages and even the memes that made you laugh no longer help, I know how it feels, it's Sapa that wants to kill you. It's killing me too and if you don't send me money I'll drink Pepsi and die, if you also choose to ignore this message, you're anti black. 2177444980 Zenith bank.

" We are all mad" You're mad, she is mad, he is mad, your ex is mad, Buharee is mad, your landlord is mad, they are mad, everybody is mad.  Humans have the constant need to give things a bigger meaning, we want to be so conscious of our humanity that we try to explain everything, in order to convince ourselves that we are better than other species and that's exactly why somebody woke up and decided to group names, animals, places and things into one category, and, another decided that he wanted to extend the group and added "ideas". Often times I wonder what if these words and things never existed, what if one human didn't want to be remembered so bad and had just sat in his house sipping tea and had left everybody to their business, what if the word happiness didn't exist? What if the word sadness didn't exist? What if money didn't exist? What if all the things that people term as success didn't exist? And, what if success di...

"I'm feeling something, I don't know what i'm feeling but i'm feeling something and that feeling is beautiful, it feels like the sound of a baby's laughter, it feels like i'm being told I look beautiful while i'm crying, it feels like getting a good review for my work, if feels like getting my dream job, if feels like what I would feel if I got to meet my idol, I don't know what feeling this is, but I love it and I want to feel it again, so i'll put the song on repeat." I guess this is more of a reaction than a review cause this is my first listen and i'm here crying but I want to capture this emotion, this feeling, I want to pencil it down so I can remember how beautiful this song was the first time i heard it. The chords, the drums, the way his voice was in perfect symphony with the rhythm, the perfect sync, the ad-libs, the background orchestra, maybe this is love. I would say this song has no flaw, but if this is really ...

"There are a lot of evil people in this world, people like that usher that likes seizing phone–nonsense woman–your math teacher that said if you don't know calcus you'll never get into uni–shey you've entered school and she's still teaching that mumu subject, nonsense! That evil woman that tried to make you right handed when you were left handed, the people selling fanta 150, that woman that told me to take "two money" and collected my big money (Thunder will fire this one), Desmond Elliot and that mumu Elon Mustapha that is using your binance to play, shey if you too you're not a mumu you'll use the money and buy Amala from mummy Taofeek and you'll know that you enjoyed yourself, eh eh as i was saying, people are evil in this world o but nobody beats those monsters that text you "We need to talk" This sentence was made by the devil himself, shey izz this sentence that they use and break my heart, God will still punish Fe...

Good roads we don't have, bad governance everywhere, poverty, climate, see ehn, Nigeria is the only reason you're not fine. Nigeria has made it a plan to ruin my life but God is by my side, I cannot allow myself to be used. Everyday there's a new story, i'm switching on the TV hoping to finally get good news, but no! It's always the same story, but someone different, another Ngozi has been kidnapped, another Femi left for work but didn't come home, another lockdown, another fraud case, another rape incident, same story everyday. I got the idea for this piece this morning, i went outside to get airtime and on my way, i saw some men sitted at a shop were they sold local gin "hot" and they were having an argument on which they were going to get. I was surprised, wasn't it too early for "Men" to be drinking? I can't even blame Nigeria again i blame Nigerians. As at 2018 the population in Nigeria was 195.9 million and the worki...

When i was younger i wanted to learn a lot, a whole lot, i wanted to try alot too. I had it written in my diary, it was a section that said " What i want to be when i grow up " i wanted to be a sketch artist, a popstar, a dancer, a writer, i wanted one of my silly romance novels to be a movie, at one certain point i wanted to code and design my own apps–most of these ideas had come from movies i had watched, the biggest impact happened at age 14, i read the all famous Ben Carson's book about his life story and i decided i wanted to be a neurosurgeon. This decision might just be my biggest mistake in life and the reason my plan to be a rich Lamborghini owner at 18 looks unrealistic. Let's look at this from this perspective, imagine someone had really paid attention and maybe aided me in my decision making and allowed me try out these things i said i wanted to be, but we are stuck in a regressive country where the value of a child is based on his or her grad...
