I'm a big believer in the theory that you have to be at your best to be able to give your best. It's why I respect companies that would do anything to make sure that their employees are at their most comfortable. It's why I work for one of such companies 😁 Anyways, this post [...]
Hello beautiful...Happy new month!!! I mean, it's still the new month right? Even though we are on Day 6 already. It's Day 6 right? I'm always curious as to how people count things. Like how do they count money? How do they count distance? How do they count time in a day? How do they [...]

In my last video where I played Never Have I Ever with my best friend, I promised to do a separate video about the time I got into a physical fight with a certain somebody. Well, I fulfilled my promise in this new video. Please don't judge me ooo. I don't know how to fight [...]
A genie appears, grants me a wish to choose one notable African personality I want to meet, what do you think my answer would be? I feel like everybody that knows me personally will say SIMI. But my dears, you are wrong 😂. I definitely want to meet Simi but you know why I won't [...]
Imagine being married to the heir to the king. Imagine having a happy family - Your husband, Oranmiyan. Your son, Oluorogbo. Imagine the city was Ile-Ife of the Yorubas. Imagine if Ile-Ife was being attacked by the Ìgbòs, another Yoruba clan. Imagine if they were kidnapping and enslaving Ile-Ife citizens weekly. Imagine if all the [...]
Hi my darling, Even though I've lived in Lagos State, Nigeria all my life, my family is originally from Ogun State, Nigeria and the language we speak is Yoruba. I like to call it the language of the deep because there really is some unnecessarily deep sturv going on there😂. Some people still find it [...]
Hi my darling! I hope you're still holding up fine. Remember it's okay to take a break for yourself and come back strong enough to fight for everything that truly matters.

Hi my darling! Today, I'd be sharing four Instagram accounts I love following, why I follow them and why you should maybe follow them too! @diaryofanaijagirl I mentioned this page when I talked about my favourite Naija bloggers here and my reason is the same. She always posts truly inspiring content and I totally admire [...]
Dear Content Creator, Many times, we are our own greatest enemies and we don't even realise it. Sometime in 2018, I made a post where I listed some signs that you are your own greatest enemy. If you haven't seen it, you should consider taking a peep. I believe that there are also signs like [...]

Have you ever wondered what the point of social media is? I know I have. I actually once took a pen and paper and started writing down the lessons I've learned from social media. You see, the world of social media can be difficult to navigate. It's a place made of people, by people and [...]
Hey you! How are you holding up? Sometimes, I'm just on my bed or in the bathroom and the reality randomly hits me again. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FREAKING PANDEMIC! It's funny how I'm not freaking out anymore the way I was at the beginning of this thing. I followed some tips [...]
It's hard to write about who I am today. It's even harder to write about how I became who I am today. You see, the person that I am at the moment is shaped by every single one of my previous experiences. Every person I have met. Every place I have been. Everything I have [...]
When people ask me what my favourite food is, I always say one of two things: I don't have a favourite food.Chicken and Chips, Ice-cream for dessert. I'll explain. I do not have a favourite food. There are foods I like which include fried plantain, pasta, fruit salads, samosas etc. But none of these are [...]
From time to time, I sit back and think about what my blog is now and what it was when I started. And I'm usually unable to do that without thinking of who I am now and who I was when I started. When I started this blog, it was called Through my Tiny Eyes. [...]
Hi guys! How are you doing? I hope you are staying safe and staying protected? I also hope you're staying safe mentally and emotionally and taking time for yourself if you need to. Remember that it's okay to take a step back. Take some time off social media or mute any accounts that may be [...]
