Day 3 … Day 4

…guess we jinxed it, you know, the ‘3 days now 4 days’ gym plan. Although I didn’t run, I haven’t anyway… Felt too fuzzy to be on any treadmill on day 3 (told you guys to suggest meals 🤷🏽‍♀️), and day 4, something came up… I tried visiting the gym before heeding the other call, it was locked, so yeah, excuses maybe, but I haven’t disappeared yet… Although, I just might for another 3 weeks … I don’t want to, might have to… still part of the ‘something came up’ from day 4 Anyway, that’s all I came here to say, to let you know I’m still here, I haven’t ran, don’t plan to ‘yet’… …till later… Peace 🤗🤗

Day 2

  So, maybe ‘so’ is always gon’ be my prefix. I’ve always tried to change it, still haven’t in years… That said… …so, the title will be days, more like a tracker? Till we change it; kindly indulge me. Yup. In my initial post, which was supposed to be a ‘yesterday’, I said ‘used blogspot’, cos I wanted to try another blogpage; the site got me a lil confused, and the post was supposed to be an unplanned one, so, I ended up not posting on any page… I’m back to my first love, blogspot. I highly recommend, it don’t mean we’re slow 😩😩 …might attempt to navigate that at some other time… Whew!!! Yeah, day 2!!! Was at the gym again, and it was nice. Surprisingly, I haven’t had no body ache; the instructor makes us ‘stretch’ after every work out. I’d come across that before, while ‘researching’ on ‘gyming’’ instead of actually entering the gym. Well, I’ve started the journey, and it’s helpful, else, would’ve found the perfect excuse to be out for another couple of days 🫠 Guess what? I’m e...

Giving ‘IT’ Another Shot

So, yeah … whoever knows me knows how many shots I’ve given to consistent writing  Had a blogspot Used twitter Maybe even a podcast I never saw through… Used a writing app Even tried a novel once (doubt anyone knew this, my secret…) I only ever did one chapter, that’s if I finished it… So, yeah, giving ‘IT’ another shot … or is it them? Them, ‘cos healthy living was another thing I said I was gon’ be giving a shot last year I tried, trust me, I did Subscribed to a gym twice…2 months …safe to say there was just a day in each month So, again ‘yeah’, wanna see if I’ll be able to be a lil more consistent in both, by carrying my lil circle along …my circle is gon’ be whoever chooses to read these posts sometimes… So, I’mma be posting on my gym stories… giving almost daily updates, and then every other thing I’ve never been a fan of writing about my personal life Neither am I so much of a fictional writing  Prior to now, I’ve always kinda blended both, 1% non-fiction, 99% fiction I ...

Free Joy, NOT Cheap Joy

 So... all that info is in previous post is so that I get the platform to drop something again (sense 😉🙂). My loves, JOY is free and available to all BUT it sure AIN'T CHEAP. So, my convalescent self was on my way to the hospital for the last batch of my injections (my butts is sure on fire from previous ones, but what can a baby girl do 🙁☹️ Anyway...  This driver, looking all tired, rough and all (a Lagos hustler driver ofcourse. GOD PLEASE HELP US ALL WITH NO SILVER SPOON) Halfway into the drive (less than 10minutes drive anyway), after his bus was hit by a police officer for "illegal parking" and a threat to deflate his tires (again, this' Lagos, and the heart of it ofcos...) ...back on track... Young man baby boy did put more volume to his music (not new, I know, we're all used to noise in this Lagos, sadly...) ...anyway... ...as I was saying... bro started to groove to the music, hands off the wheels, on a BRT express lane 😳😲 (Apologies to those who don...

Documentary Writing yeah? 🌚

 Heyyyyyyy!!! It's been long around here. Who missed me? No, sorry. I meant to say "was I missed?" PFFT! Seems I know the answer already 🙄 I won't take an offence tho, I have been on and off on making a presence here 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️ Anyway. So, all along, I've been trying to get the word that fits my writing. Yeah well, I know I've been calling it "non fictional." However, my PUSHERS have been telling me "IYANU, pick a segment. What exactly do you write on? It makes it easier to rate you and give an honest opinion on your writings. ...AND I NEVER HAD THE WORD!!! 🤦🏻‍♀️ VOILA, I FINALLY DO!!! 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃 Drum rollzzzzzz!!! 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁 Well, I think the word is #DOCUMENTARY WRITING# 🌚 Errrrrr... you'll have to decide what kinda documentary this is tho 🤷🏻‍♀️ Ok, that's all. Ba-bye 🌚🤸🏻‍♀️🤸🏻‍♀️🤸🏻‍♀️🤸🏻‍♀️🤸🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️ #EyilzDocumentaries #EyilzStillWrites 🌚 #EyilZ ☺️🤗🥰🥰🥰🥰

Can a woman really do what a man can do?

"What a man can do, a woman can do" is one saying females are quick to. Some of us even make ours longer with a few extra words, "what a man can do, a woman can do MUCH MORE BETTER." Smiles. Why do I feel you guys think I'm talking about me? Well, maybe...but that was in the past. Hey!!! It doesn't mean the statement is false, more like, it's a regular one, no biggie about it. It's like saying "JUICE/ANY KIND OF DRINK IS SWEETER THAN WATER." Like, who doesn't know that? But does that mean you can forever delete water from your list? It's a NO!!! They all serve their purpose, they are complimentary, not unhealthy rivals. In the same vein, MEN and WOMEN ARE ON EARTH TO COMPLIMENT ONE ANOTHER, THEY ARE NOT COMPETITORS!!! Maybe my water/juice analogy doesn't even qualify it, cos we can still decide to do away with the supplement (juice), but never with water. I said my analogy may have a loophole 'cos no one gender can do with...

I CAN NO LONGER GO TO SCHOOL, MY TEACHER IS A MAN...

 Hello... If you're conversant with my page, you'll know my favourite article, and it seems it's many others' favorite too; the girl who aged faster than her age (judging by reviews). So, yes, then, it was pure fiction, but now, it's so reallllllllll; first hand experience you know... Yeah, that is the beautiful night picture of my state (I'm still in the far north for my national youth service. Yeah, I got trapped in here despite the pandemic. It's a too long distance from home and flight ticket is quite a fortune for me at the moment). That's was taken yesterday night actually, I was outside the gate, enjoying the bliss and calm that comes with the night. Yeah, not much bustles here, it's more quiet... HOMEOF PEACE!!!  And it happened that in the midst of this beauty, some culture isn't as beautiful. CHILD MARRIAGE!!! The culture here is one that really respect/submerge, subvert, silence females. The use of the two contradictory verbs are deli...
