I met my guys last weekend, not big plans. We just sat outside, bought small drinks, and gist till night. There was no loud music. Those are my favourite moments. Once you add too much to it, the enjoyment disappears. It's just friends laughing, dragging each other and remembering old stories. I...
I was complaining to an older guy one evening about money and stress. He just told me “don’t rush life, but don’t sleep on it either.” It sounded simple, but it stuck with me. Since then, I try not to panic when things are slow, but I also push myself every day. That advice balanced everything.
I was too tired to cook yesterday, my body was just weak. I checked the kitchen and saw bread and eggs. That's my standard lazy combo. Sometimes I just add tea if I like. When you’re lazy, you don’t need too much enjoyment, just survival. Bread and egg has saved me many times honestly.
I remember one night they brought light suddenly around 11pm. Without thinking too much, I ordered food online even though the price had jumped. Hunger and excitement teamed up on me that day. The food came late and I ate very late that day. I still don’t regret it fully, but that was reckless...
I was just standing at the bus stop this morning, scrolling my phone, when one man tapped me and said “boss, your shoe is damaged.” I checked, nothing happened. He just smiled and walked off. I stood there confused for like 10 seconds. That's was so crazy though 🤣
Do you guys trust Google Drive, iCloud, OneDrive and all other cloud storage? For me, I’m giving them 70% because it's very convenient, but sometimes I’m afraid that everything might disappear one day or I could lose everything to hacking. But at the same time, storing documents on only the...
Live shows have a unique kind of energy you won’t feel on YouTube. I remember going for a Burna show. The crowd, the lights, the sound, everything was just crazy. I almost lost my voice singing along with and chatting up with the lyrics. It wasn’t even perfect, but the vibe was unforgettable...
Honestly, Sunday afternoons has a special vibe. After church and lunch, I just like to lie down and watch a nice movie or have a peaceful sleep. That quiet Sunday peace hits differently. Sometimes I’ll even do some planning for the week
How do you guys like to spend your own Sunday afternoons?
When it comes to culture, I can say that my country leads. We might have our own problems, but we've got a wonderful culture. The food, the respect, the family vibe, the music, the proverbs… sometimes it just feels too rich. I like how every tribe has their own style and identity. Even our...
Nature has a way of influencing our mood in one way or the other. I remember the time I went to a quiet river spot in my area. The breeze alone cleared my head. No noise, no stress, everything is so calm. That day made me realize that sometimes you just need to interact with nature to unwind...
Sometimes one random quote can reset your whole brain. I’m not even someone that reads heavy books like that, but the Marcus Aurelius’ “you have power over your mind…” line hit me that year. Even Achebe too, his way of breaking things down still inspires me up till now. It’s very funny how...
This one depends on the site you are using. I remember using one unlicensed casino back then, I almost cry when I couldn’t withdraw my winnings . Since then, I don't usually play on any site that doesn't have a license from UKGC or MGA. Those ones are more strict, and your money is safe with them.
Honestly, I learned in a hard way that you cannot believe all casino bonuses because a lot of them are not the way it was presented on their sites. Some of them come with serious wagering issues. These days, I only grab the ones with low rollover, maybe 10x or less. And I always read the terms...
I always load my playlist before I travel. Music is one of the things that keep me alive during those endless trips. I also like cracking jokes with fellow passengers if the atmosphere is right. Sometimes I download one or two Netflix shows too, but once the bus start to vibrate too much, due to...
There was a time I tried snail pepper soup at an event in Benue. When I saw it, I was shocked at first, but after tasting it? It was so so delicious 😂. I also remembered when someone gave me a roasted grasscutter, I didn’t even know what it was until later. It actually tasted good, I won't lie.
I like editing short videos or scrolling through TikTok for inspiration. Sometimes I play games like FIFA or just hang out with friends at a joint spot. Honestly, I do anything that lets me switch off my brain from work stress. I also like taking a walk.
For me, once I feel that stress is building up, I just blast music or go for a walk. Sometimes I even gist with my one of my friends about random things, and the pressure will keep down gradually. I don’t like overthinking what I know that I can’t fix immediately, so I just look for an escape route.
These days I’m more into small hobbies like cycling, cooking, even sketching. It fills that restless energy that gambling used to eat up.🤣 Funny enough, I’m saving more money now and feeling better mentally too.
After I lost a chunk of cash on betting years ago, I sat down, wrote out what I owed, and called a financial counselor. It was embarrassing but I think it was the best thing to do in order to free myself. The good thing is I was able to pay it off bit by bit, even if it was just $20 at a time...
When I used to get the urge to bet, I’d literally grab my phone and delete the apps or go hangout with a friend. Keeping my hands busy helped, even something like cooking dinner or walking the dog, can help. It’s not perfect but it breaks the urge and helps me to cool off.
