The Chronicles of a Fat Kid

The distance between her house and her church was ten minutes.

She dreaded these walks but because her doctor told her if she didn't want her heart to suddenly stop, at least 10 minutes walk daily.
This was the only way she could attempt walking because she was too lazy to exercise, also she was a worker in church so she had to attend literally every service.

Sweat drops trickled down her face, her back, her thighs, she was just sweaty all over and she couldn't deal. But this was the price she had to pay for all the junks she had eaten which brought about the fat her body had amassed.
She silently despised herself. She knew she couldn't blame her mom because she took precautionary measures to prevent her from eating so much by; locking the fridges and freezer, buying all the variety of fruits and making salads, even reducing her monthly allowance so she couldn't spend so much on junks.

She knew she just couldn't help herself. She remembered how she ate the last piece of cake her cousin didn't finish just before she left her house for church. She tried to take her mind off it, but her eyes always betrayed her.

What was worse in her opinion wasn't her body weight compared to her friends or family members but the short heavenly feeling she felt every time she put food into her mouth. This feeling never lasted, which was why she kept coming back. No matter how hard she tried to keep away, she just couldn't help herself.

With love, theInspiredCutiee 😘

Emma Gonzalez

I am usually all for honesty; I wrote this piece for one the blogs I feature in, but apparently it couldn’t fly because it didn’t centre on an African, (which is good, we got to celebrate Africa). ‘No worries', I said to myself, 'I wrote it, Emma Gonzalez inspires me, so, ama share it here'… While valentine’s festivities for the year was in the air, students of Majory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida were experiencing the most memorable days of their youthful lives; a fellow student of the above named school went on a rage and killed seventeen people. Seventeen lives were lost because one unstable person had his hands on a weapon of destruction. This event is not just a traumatic one for those involved, but more of an uproar; come on, its rational for anyone in this situation to be livid. Having seen clips of the incident, watched the town hall meeting aired by CNN, read tributes, speeches, and the ever trending hashtags #WeCallBS #NotAgain, it’s amazi...

Society and one of its ills

This post started off as a rant, but then I decided why just rant? Critic the ill, but also share lessons you’ve amassed overtime. Remember, this month is the month of purpose, why rant and not have a purpose? I usually say, ‘everyone has an opinion, all it takes to be swayed to the other side – is good argument. Daz all! I can start a movement on ‘School should be optional, because these days an individual can ‘’blow’’ without the four walls of a classroom’, yes I’ll have followers, but then TeamEducationForAll would rise and protest with their POV, and then the debate would begin. *yawn* it is an endless vicious cycle. Today’s rant is all about Single. Singleness. Single persons. Single not in a relationship. Who dictates social media? People! Societies are made of people. It is funny that social media has a way of dragging one down ehn, but then again, its social media, we still need her (yes, social media is female), ironically I read three different articles...

The SS 2

These series started off as a rant, but I decided to be inspiring, (as usual, hehe), you can read the Kick off post here, and Part 1 . Apparently, the contestants for Big Brother Nigeria this year have been quite entertaining, (I know someone would ask why I watch BBN; I can learn from anything, just the positives…in fact why am I explaining myself?) during Ifu Ennada’s (you don’t know her? Google her? Or rather search for her on Twitter, she’s quite popular there, I can’t come and be explaining who she is!) eviction interview one statement she made (that gave me an entire perspective of her personality) was “I chose to be intentionally single this year”. I was like, give that lady a round of applause! Being intentionally single doesn’t mean you are not beautiful enough to catch a man. It doesn’t mean you are not smart enough to find a partner. It doesn’t even determine your financial status to attract or retain the ladies. It simply means you are de...
