Reliving Summer ’17

You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it – Maya Angelou

If you’re wondering where I’ve been, trust me, so am I. Simple explanation: life happened. But for now you will have to be content with a few quick updates, apologies… (let me know what I’m looking for on that ground tho?)

Firstly, I recently joined the “big chop” gang & I’m loving it! If you know me you’ll know I’ve been preaching about cutting my hair since first year uni – lol, really took my time on that one. But on April 26, 2017 the deed was done & I can say I have zero regrets.

Sometime within the heat and studying that happened this summer I turned 21! I am so grateful, to God first and foremost, for sustaining me and strengthening my will, not just towards achieveing my ambitions but overcoming my shortcomings. I am thankful for my family who forever stand by me regardless of my imperfections, and for my friends, whose support continues to pour endlessly from depths unknown.

After a whirl of final exams and moving back home, I still cant believe four months flew by and I’m back in residence. Mixed feelings I won’t lie, but mostly a RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF EXCITEMENT because I’M GRADUATING Y’ALL !!! (by the most precious Grace of the Almighty of course). My happiness cannot be translated into words, but it has been a phenomenal 3 years so far & a truly rewarding journey, shout out to everyone who has made (& broken) every bit of way, but sappy grad post will be due in 8 months time.

To keep this update short and sweet, I’m back! and hopefully as I transition into school-mode the disappearances will be kept to a minimum. I hope you are all doing well & may the last days of your summer be ever productive.

Ciao for now!

xx
