Giving Up

You should give up. Quit whatever you’re working on; whatever you’re trying to accomplish right now. Just throw in the towel. And why not? Is this pain really worth it? The blood, sweat, and tears? The effort that you’ve already spent trying to do this thing or get to wherever you’re going? Why not just give up? Your effort doesn’t guarantee success. In fact, in this competitive world made of winners and losers, chances are you’re going to be on the losing side of things. And being a loser hurts and sucks not matter how many feel-good quotes you read from athletes and writers and philosophers. The only reason why you know these quotes, is because these people “made it.” And people who “make it” are fond of telling other people that they can “make it” too. Which is silly because they should know better: Not everyone is going to “make it.” I know this all sounds cynical but life isn’t a bed of roses. Isn’t it just better to call it quits before things get too hard and your heart gets

Don't Be Scared To Confess Your Love

Have you heard? Heard what? There's a new love post Really Obviously, I just said so didn't I. Alrighty then. Make sure you read it… That's the type of conversation you should be having with your friends right now, while reading this post. So today I want to bother you with that female, that male you like and just don't or can't or don't want to approach (for whatever bloody reason). And as usual, I'll be using myself as a point of reverence. Well, it doesn’t have to do with me directly but a friend of mine. And I tried giving him, a gush (if you will) , but nothing. So you my friend I will give a push. My friend is D and the girl is P. (for reference. Though I probably won't stress too much on it... probably). In high school I learnt of my good friends’ crush and time being everyone would be like "check out my babe" or "give me that girls number", but he wasn't open to it. Later other dudes keep teasing him with this gi

Zodiac Heartbreak (2017)

Domo minasan, (I'm in the Japanese mood), remember that post on the live you would experience according to you Zodiac sign (or Zodiac Love as I called it)? Well welcome to the sequel. This particular post is even more intriguing (to me) than the first. This is your breakup scheme based on you Zodiac sign. And just like the previous I'll be adding my comments (in brackets like this). • Aries (March 21st to April 19th) Your impulsive tendencies and short temper will lead to and on again off again relationship. Eventually, even a partner that loves you won’t be able to handle it and you’ll find yourself alone. (what happened to being confident). • Taurus (April 20th to May 21st) You’ll find yourself in a mutual breakup with someone you really do care for. And while your heart will break walking away from such a person who made you who you are today, you know it’s time you do your own thing. That doesn’t mean you won’t find your way back again. • Gemini (May 22nd to June

Zodiac Love (2017)

Zodiac, twelve animals, twelve realms, call it what you may but today I'll be known as Zodiac Love. I promised you that along the line you would find more and more love based articles and well, here they come. I don't really believe in horoscopes or the fact that your personality is defined because of the day and or time zone you were born in, but I found this rather intriguing post in Thoughtcatalog and I decided to bring it to you. So I hope you don't get your heart broken by these rather, hair raising assumptions. I will throw my opinions here and there and (they'll probably be in brackets like these). • Aries (March 21st to April 19th) As someone who is both confident and courageous (can't argue with that because my baby sis fits the description), oddly you’ll find yourself in a relationship that might have taken a bit of convincing. But you never gave up on the person. It’s going to be someone you’ve had your eye on and have known for a while. In return,

Don't Say "I Love You"!

Hello people, welcome back to my blog. If this is your first time, Welcome also with a big hug from me and, well, me. Today I want to ramble on love and the weight it carries. I will dive into "spirituality" for just one minute so please bear with it (if you may find it offensive). What is Love? According to the Bible, God is Love. So, it would be accurate to assume that to know, feel and understand Love, you must first know, feel and understand God. No one understands God (neither do I) and vaguely no one wants to. So no one understands God. This is a theory, but that doesn't mean what you feel is not Love. From looking at the stupid things people do to avoid love you may think that "Does Love really exist?", well of course (because God exists). But the difference is: True love. And planes. You know that "true love" people yearn for? That's God's love. But we aren't on the same planes of existence, so in summary our love is different

The Life Of A Dopout: Day 6

Siblings, the weak point of any older brother and or sister. No matter how much they annoy you, betray you and whatever else they could do to you, you still forgive them. (although there are a few things that I personally cannot and or will not forgive, particularly, Betrayal). So today I will tell you about the reaction my siblings had and the way their current treatment towards me. I am the first of four (through my mother), after me comes H (a seventeen year old girl), followed by M (a soon to be ten year old boy) and then finally S (a five year old girl). I am Nineteen today (June 17). So, the reaction of of H, the eldest of my younger ones was quite annoying. She was the primary course of all the malice my Father showed towards me. ANY story she fabricated and told my dad, he would believe (without caring about what I had to say), which in turn made me more distant than I already was. And it still happens till date. Any who, she kept bearing about theush when I asked her some

The Life Of A Dropout: Day 5

Parents. A real pain in the ass sometimes. Mine are an even bigger pain in the ass. Probably the worst. My dad is a "I don't really care about you if you aren't the best" kinda guy and my mom is the "I can't control my temper or any and every other one of of my emotions" person. This combo is really really dangerous for anyone. But enough of that, let me take you to the juicy part. Their reactions when I was suspended and the roles they played on the road to this very day. My Father Well as my mentioned in a previous post, my dad labeled me and when I told him I wanted to take a break and reevaluate myself. When I returned from the most previous, 2017 second semester, he asked me if I was going back and I said "no". Part of the reason why I wanted to reevaluate myself in 2016 was actually because my school fees was really expensive and some shitty relatives kept saying stuff like "I he the only child, why spend so much on him", &qu

The Life Of A Dropout: Day 4

Welcome back. Today I'll tell you about the 2016/17 session in school (since this was the pinnacle of my current situation). After I started this blog and got shot down by google adsense a couple of times I switched to affiliate marketing, and come August I returned to that dead mans hole of a school. My roommates this time didn't have any problems (this is my 3rd semester in that school and because I got depressed in my second semester, I was put on probation). One of them had a gaming laptop and it sometimes found its way to me a couple of times (which I would gladly take advantage of and game from night till morning [because it was always late at night] and play Mafia 3). Since this was a new session and a new set of students were coming in, I met someone I knew (from high school). He had a Lenovo Y50 (and unknowing to me it would help me in my fourth semester). The first semester of that session was a breeze. Met new annoying people and created new experiences and althou

The Life Of A Dropout: Day 3

Ah, the future. One of mans greatest desires. To see and or peer into the future (probably to see what is in store for them or what nonsense they have brought upon us). Today I will be telling about one of the tremendously annoying sentiments very common in my "people", in your "people" and ultimately in "society". And that my friends is the sentiment that "Your future is secured if you've gone to school. Now I do understand that not every atmosphere has the same view about "dropping out". But where I come from, it's a big deal. People go to school to satisfy society and in the end society doesn't satisfy them. The mere thought of studying continuously for years (even with a good result) only for you to graduate and reach another hurdle. Job seeking. Honestly speaking, if I didn't know of so many people that made it with blogging and or E-commerce, I probably also wouldn't try. And that is exactly the situation. Everyon

The Life Of A Dropout: Day 2

What to talk about today. Ah. My school life. Fitting in wasn't easy for an 'introvert' like myself, and being that we were only allowed to dress corporate or go home. The school was downright screwed and whats more they believe that they can become one of the top ten (10) Universities in the World in 10 years. Anyhow that's their stupidity. A lot of things happened when I was there though. I resumed Gaming and Anime. I had this dude on my floor, Alex, he watched, and had, A LOT of anime. At the time I was only watching Naruto. And I had a really fat really strong roommate and his name was Daniel. He was the 'importer' (if you will) of our games. My laptop wasn't that bad so I managed to play games like Devil May Cry, Call Of Duty and FIFA 14. Not to impressive and not too disappointing. First semester was really fun and interesting all through but when second semester came it was the end game. A friend of mine got an MSI prestige, I was the primary user

The Life Of A Dropout: Day 1

History Being a dropout. Depending on your atmosphere and the type of people you have around you can be the worst thing. So what is the cause of people "dropping out" of school and why do people see it as such an intense taboo? Well for me. I'm from a third world country (Nigeria) and to me, trying to better your "future" by school ALONE is ridiculous and I will tell you why in a minute. Most people dropout for whatever reason and it might be similar to my reasons but do not be mistaken. I do intend to resume school but at a later date. First I want to tell you about my atmosphere. In Nigeria (and every other society) most people are absorbed in the general stereotypes. In Nigeria, so far as you have a certificate, it doesn't matter if your jobless and broke. People go to school without knowing why they go to school and at the end are unworthy of their certificate. Plus they can't even solve a simple problem. People are too ignorant to bring about an
