Random chic in a not so random town

I have not been here in a very long time....Thing is I have been looking for avenues to write but something else keeps coming up.I am pained by it literally, because as usual I have a lot of stories to tell the world..my dad says storytellers are the best liars but I disagree :) That's because that statement directly implicates me... Last week was probably the best week I have had in a long time: Nothing extra ordinary happened, nothing to write home about but everything my heart cant begin to fathom...I probably treat this blog like my personal diary what the hell?? I will never get real in person like I get on this blog :) I am going to make an attempt on how my week went and hopeful get to capture the super highlights ( those girlie melting moments) of my life !! I am in love ( No secret there) but this time for all the right reasons...I think *dikes and hides face* so most of what made my week has to do with that special person in my life Monday: Had a random coffee date ...

I sit at the corner of the office and observe. I have always had pride in the fact that I am an observer. I can tell who I can easily connect with and whom I can’t. It partly depresses me that I can’t walk over to someone else’s desk and just chill, be myself and make noise. I am afraid of coming off too noisy but am bordering on too quiet and not easily approachable. I wish I could be the type to talk before someone else starts the conversation. At this point I start to envy my boyfriend. I imagine what he would do in my situation. Knowing him, he would probably just walk to someone’s desk and pick a conversation about just anything. He would be nice and kind and talkative at the same time without coming off as too much. BOY and I wonder why I fell in love with the guy! He is phenomenon!! Anyhu back to my situation here. I miss my friends at my former place. I miss the catching up we did when there was no internet, or when someone on the opposing gang did something stupid. I m...

 Last month saw me doing a lot of job applications...I was desperate and for that reason only, I poured my heart on each and every application. One in particular made me write an article for the position of a social media expert! I was thrilled at the prospects because its what I love to do...entertain and inform through my words.. I got the reply with a regret along with it :) But hey I gave it my all :- I had no idea what God had planned for me up till now am amazed at the turn of events in my life! ENJOY I feel like a performer. I am performing at a club downtown where stools have been turned into seats and seats into amateur beds. I am walking onto the stage for the first time and all I can feel is my heart pounding in rhythms that can never be recorded. I am anxious and excited all at once and I cannot tell which of the two emotions wins the battle to my maiden introduction. The crowd is silent, pin drop silent. I can’t tell whether they are eager or indifferent ...

I sat there looking waiting in anticipation,I had an arm around my shoulder. It provided me with the kind of comfort I had never imagined I would get at a night like this. The sound of the rain was drenching everything else but my spirit remained strong. I stopped and listened at the inner voices around me. I was at the perfect place at the perfect moment with the perfect person. The music on the background was sensational and the faces stole a piece of my heart with the expectation. The MC came on stage and the hall ripped with the kind of laughter that was rare and unnatural yet sweetly so. I was in love with the whole scenario and in awe at the person who got me here. This is my attempt at capturing the mood that was present at the night of 1000 laughs.. I had never attended this event before and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed myself! Highlights of the events : The Ugandan comedian brought the house down!  almost died literally of laughter. The guy had jokes..and he knew wh...

I was celebrating my one year blog anniversary last month but lo and alas! I forgot!! How can  I forget?? How can I forget all the work and sweat I have put into this baby of mine? Well same question I have been asking myself all week hoping to get an answer somewhere there :) I know am making an attempt at softening the landing, mine's a gone case, I should be taken and thrown to the dogs for not blogging in a mighty long time *stop smiling in approval* am softening the landing :) Anyway I have a reason- I don't mean a shelved  nonsensical reason, I mean a real reason..It has been a crazy month-Last month and amidst all that craziness, the blogging bug did not strike for a while well..until today. I feel more settled today after the fruits of my labor were appreciated yesterday :) All that screaming by ATWOLI made me think that I deserve to be here in this moment and now...working for a company I love :) RECAP: Life since January has been brutal and the highlight of it all...
