The Life Of A Dropout: Day 7

Today was extremely, somewhat, probably good. I met a brother of mine, which we will be addressing today as "A". I chat with him frequently and I have asked him his view on what has been happening in my life and thankfully he had somewhat the same answer I thought he would give (I can't really say, I'm not in his head). He said
"Me... I don't care whether you're schooling or selling fish or maybe stripping.... everybody's got his own life to live...."
 and then he sent a really long message which, not that I wouldn't want to write, but, it's a pain. Oh what the heck. I can at least summarize it. He said he didn't care whether you gave him the "I don't care" attitude (which he was guilty of giving everyone) or what people thought about him neither does he have time to worry about someone else's problems when he's got his own life (and problems). That's basically the summary.
I was vaguely happy to hear this because at least I some what have one ally. I know two others that would benefit me greatly but I can't go on to them with out something at hand. It's too early for them to come into play.
We met and had a really long conversation (where I did most of the talking) and some what caught up on our activities. What we talked about is not confidential but I've already said enough.
We also discussed me letting go of my first love. Which was the first and last time in my entire life that I gave up on something (and I will talk extensively on that in a future post).
I made sure I filled his ears with most of my complains and worries and as usual he listened, so, I came back a lot happier and much much more relieved. But one problem was my hard drive suddenly won't free up space, even if I deleted something and my connector had disappeared and my suspect is my old man. Speaking of my old man, you'll never believe what happened today. (I will tell you about it in another post, but to summarize, twas a threat). *smirk*
There were a lot of other things I wanted to talk to him about (like my mothers death threats and warnings), but they can wait another day. For now I just took a few series from him that I would like to watch and use as an escape route for when I have nothing doing (otherwise I start hunting females on Instagram, hitting them up in the DM). Basically, for me, today was so interesting and relieving (although you on the other hand, might gritting your teeth together after reading this somewhat boring post).
One thing you can count on is; after good comes bad and believe me when I tell you "The next day was terrible". But I hope you do know that I don't write as it happens, (not all my days are this interesting).
I'll see you next time and until then
Thank you for reading (my constant self ramblings).

Bonds

Welcome back. Thank you for reading my constant ramblings till date (even if this is your first time on my blog). But do read other posts. Today I want to talk about Bonds. What bonds are and which one in particular I am talking about. Well if you have read this blog for long, you would know that I'm talking about the bonds between people. Well, you might have heard: "United we stand, divided we fall" and what not and that is exactly what I'll be tackling today, so hang in there. But first I want to try to categorize bonds or at least summarize (which is impossible). Bonds forged over time. The most common among all of us. The major reason why your mother is your mother (yes, it's true). I would also say, in my personal experience that it is the most frail (especially if you don't know anything about that person even after spending years together). "You've know you parents all you life but they know you for only a short" so you should know as...

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 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...
