POST CAMP

...and on the 25th of November, camp ended with a POP (Passing Out Parade). Our joys knew no bounds bro, we couldn't wait to leave. Although, maybe in our ecstasy, we forgot leaving camp was leaving camp made friends. Yeah, for the second time in my life, I made friends in less than three weeks, guy and girlfriends and I still don't regret the relationships. Well, I shed a few tear (lots of us redeployed anyway 'cos the the security threat in our deployed state, that is Borno State. One of the reasons we camped at Katsina State instead of Borno state itself). Lol, yeah, you now know why our Mr. Macho contestant said Borno state is bordered by China. Lol. The state is the farthest in North Eastern Nigeria anyway. Bro maybe thought the next state is an Asian one, a Chinese one in particular.

Anyway, I didn't leave camp till the 26th, I didn't want to have a night trip, so... And I was going on a 10hour thereabout trip. So, the next day, I left camp, together with other corp members who were going to the same state as I. I didn't go home 😭😭😭😭😭 Despite the fact that I miss home and respite πŸ˜’☹

Anyway, the journey was a long one. And yes, a starving one. Starve 'cos I couldn't eat none of the northern junks sold by the roadside (remember I said I can be food picky at times?) I didn't recover from the starvation till after two or three weeks. I never stopped being hungry, neither did I stop eating 🀷🏻‍♀ Guys, I lost too much pound and colour at camp. I left that place a shadow of my self, tiny, bony and black 😭😭 People kept asking the 'was this you' question anytime they saw my passport either on my ID card, meal ticket or wherever. Even I couldn't recognize me no more, I was scared of me 😭😭😭😭 ''This is not who I used to be'' 😭😭 ''Will I ever be me again?'' The little fine girl I had was snatched 😩😫😭 My hair didn't help matters too. The thing was so rough (was rough before camp anyway πŸ˜• Thing been killing my morale). I needed my sleep too. Already told you guys how busy camp was, so...

And yas, SLEEP! So, I entered the bus with my blanket and I got a pillow from someone in the car. I actually took it tho, not like the guy gave me with his consent, I hijacked the pillow 🀷🏻‍♀ I needed it more na, shey? I didn't even act up people, I slept legit. And because I went into the bus sleep prepared, this guy I was in the bus with started calling me 'sleepist.' Any crime in sleeping free? Man didn't even sit close and he was beefing my sleep and sleeping skills πŸ™„πŸ™„ But then, everyone in the bus slept, PFT.  Well, I'm now good friends with the guy πŸ˜πŸ™„πŸ™„ (I want you to see your gist in particular 🀷🏻‍♀).

Guys, I'm done with this gist o. I'm done, sadly 😭😭😭😭😭 But damn, 'here' is fun. I'm not telling you where 'here' is (and please, if you know 'here', don't spill it in the comment session 🌚). I'm learning a lot too (yeah, I'm still in the North).


Now, we'll go back to facing societal ills 🌚

A New Dawn Is Here

Hyhyhy! Hello lovelies. So I've had this page on for, 3 years now right? And it's been idle ever since. I agree, I've been lazy, giving the poor state of my phone for an excuse. I must tell you I'm still using the phone, lol. So, I want to get the page active again, you know this fire refueled. But then, I need our encouragements. Please drop your comments on articles dropped and make sure to refer them to your friends and friends. We don't do enemies right? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Although, there might be a little edition in the page title, or should I say diversion in contents. Actually, it was me all crazy about poems when setting up the page, but then, growth comes with a new kind of focus and determination you know. So we will be having more of gender activism, not just narrowed down to feminism, but also treating the few cases of male child abuse as they come in focus, God helping me. Maybe a few poems or motivations at times, and of course, we continually bring ourselves ...

Virginity is really no biggie afterall; it isn't the icing, let alone the cake πŸ’πŸ’

...since I already took permission to 'just write' and I believe I've been granted the permit (read my apologies - previous post, for better understanding), LET'S DIG! YAY!!!πŸ’ƒπŸ’ƒπŸ’ƒπŸ’ƒ As I was saying, virginity or abstinence is really no biggie you know? Hold up, sip water, I'll break it down, let's journey... (Errm, so I realize some of my audience aren't just Nigerians, let alone Yorubas, but please try and follow, I'll make sure not to lose you πŸ’–πŸ’– I'll be making a few references to Yorubas. Some might even be similar to what you have around you...) ...so, I know some Yoruba gods and goddesses demand their worship done (or sacrifices carried) by just virgins just because these gods love purity. So, to start with, I'll say virginity is more about consecration. Did you know occultists demand 'virginity' in order to keep their powers safe and intact; potent. This time, more of abstinence or they are said to have committed a sacrile...

What exactly defines manhood?

Hello! Welcome back 😊 So, earlier this month, I was having an outpour of anger on one of my social media accounts, my WhatsApp status to be precise, so much that a friend had to call me to check, saying I'm a borderline sexist. Lol! You can imagine how much I vexed so much that I was called to check πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ But then, like I later shared with another friend, I was throwing shades on the menfolk 'cos of younger men. Imagine a father, one of those 'I'm the man' diehards; he wouldn't mind going naked so you know he is masculine, pff! A widower! You wouldn't want to imagine how much he squanders his wife's investments after her demise. This same woman was the breadwinner of the family while alive, doing everything to give her family the best, not excluding her husband, still... Now, even at her death, he couldn't hold up for 6months. The children are thrown out of school. He's after asses... Lots to his credit. But he's the man! And the wife...
