No Longer Fresher!!

I made it to second year!! This is the best news I've got all week and a relief. This took me back to the day I got my KCSE Results...I had no hair to pull out or nails left to chew...It's not a desirable feeling. It was not an easy year. There were times I felt like giving up like after my oral exams, I wondered why I did not choose a simpler course, wished I'd attended more classes....I still made it. I wouldn't have made it without The Almighty. Which brings me to another matter. I need to change this blogs name as I'm moving on up. It was great being fresher but I'm ready for bigger and better. I'll marinate on that and when I return I'll have a special piece for freshers. If you know any, tell them to watch this space. Enjoy your weekend lovelies :D

Im back!!

So I'm done with three quarters of first year. 6 down, 2 to go. The end is just so close I can smell it. Anyhow, I haven't posted in eons. This past week was crazy!! Found myself hiking a free lift from a bodaboda. Before you judge, I had no choice. I was late for nearly all my papers this week which was soo not fun. I'm glad the week is over. I've been waiting for it to end.
In other news, fresher is voting today!! So I was planning on going in the evening but my dad threatened to leave me so I had to get up. Yeah, it's a long line, but it's a line you make once every 5 years. Plus we get a free week off. All I can say is let's vote for peace. We have a beautiful country, let's keep it that way.

NORMAL

NORMAL…………It seems like such an ugly word. No one ever wants to be just normal, plain or average. Recently I’ve been hoping that my life could just get back to normal. The kind of ‘normal’ that I used to know. Yes, it’s dull and kind of boring but I think normal’s just what I want to get back to. It’s kind of like when you’re spinning, your head is also spinning then your body stops but your head is still spinning but you want it to stop. Get my drift? There’s no other way to explain my life.

In other news, 2013 is here. This first week for me is turning out to be filled with so many blonde moments.

On Sunday I was driving home then the car stalled. We were three females in the car. So we just sat there looking confused. So we called for help which arrived way past sunset. So what we thought was a battery problem turned out to be something much more basic. It seemed that that day we had driven around this city’s potholed roads for so long that we forgot to refuel our vehicle. You can imagine the blow to my ego. I was like ‘somebody kill me NOW!’ Three very intelligent brains. We couldn’t figure that out. Ouch! It happens to the best of us.  

I’ve always hated how the express counter line in some supermarkets always moves at such a sluggish pace. Well this week, I was part of the reason. So the cashier sends someone to check on price of item. Guy takes eons to get back. Meanwhile I tell cashier to take item off my receipt cause guy behind me is giving me murderous looks. Cashier takes even longer to remove item. By this time  everyone on the line was shooting daggers at me. I was relieved when it was all over. Karma.

And finally, I’m don’t usually follow any news unless it’s E-news (don’t judge). Why you ask…it’s too depressing. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not ignorant or selfish, I care about what goes on around our country. I really do and making a difference was and is a huge part of my career decision. But sometimes life gets so depressing I’d rather not put myself through watching even more depressing realities. That’s beside the point. Let me point out the most interesting piece of news this week which is as you guessed it is the fake cop saga. This caught my attention and I could not believe that this guy pulled off being a top cop for 5 years. This was mind-blowing. He must have been really brave and smart but he probably pissed somebody off and that somebody must have ratted him out and spilled his big secret. I probably wouldn’t be able to go through with that cause I’m awfully paranoid. This reminded me of Suits. In this fabulous series, a really smart guy is pretending to be a Harvard graduate and lawyer. He makes real lawyers look bad.

Anyway, Happy 2013 peeps!! May all your dreams and hopes come to pass!!
