A friend in need **Who is a friend? A friend is anyone who stands by you, through thick and thin, helps you out when you're down or ready to go down with you. Gets you into trouble and suffers the consequences with you.** *It was a Friday, the best time of the week and there I was, down in the dumps after having what might just be the worst day of my life, or so I thought...* **Bolu**, who happened to be the best friend and mentor I have till date - you see I wasn't very…
Dissapointment ***"the only good thing about hitting rock bottom is the only way to go is up"*** I must have heard this from a movie but didn't give it much thought-until today, the way I see it, there is no good thing about hitting rock's bottom, that feeling of being shattered into pieces, the complete realisation that some things are just not meant to be and giving up would be wise. I guess the motivational speaker didn't think things through-I pondered in the living room…
Depression ***I wish to reach out to everyone going through tough times, a reminder that everything is going to be alright.*** Have you ever been in a position where you just want to be alone? You do not want to talk to anyone and it feels like you are all alone. It feels like life keeps knocking you down everytime you try to get back on your feet, like everything and everyone is against you...a feeling you can't actually communicate with anyone when asked - often times not…
Titanic - The sinking of the Great Ship ***"Come at once . We have struck a berg. It's a CDQ, old Man"*** ***"We have struck an iceberg and sinking by the head"*** ***"We are putting passengers in small boats. Women and Children in boats. Cannot last much longer"*** ***"Engine room full up to boilers"*** Source https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-17631595 The following distress calls ensued from the Titanic just after midnight on April 15, 1912 until 1:45am. On April 10, 1912,…
I wish you use this medium to thank my two good friends @HappyBoy and @King_Gozie for introducing me to this wonderful opportunity, thanks for the sponsorship, I really appreciate it, before now, being a loner and wildly imaginative, I'd often box all my thoughts in, now, I can share it with my new found family.... Thank you once again
Procastination **"I'll do it later"** Image source https://psycom.net I have developed a theory about myself that I work better under pressure. I developed this Theory after carrying out a lot of test on myself, some of which I will share with you. The next semesters exams is just around the corner and I've refused to study or work on any of my projects - one of which is due for submission tomorrow. I should be worried or at least try to do something about it but I'm not,…
My Letter to Mrs Mistake ***"Nobody learns without getting it wrong"*** I love starting my articles with a quote, that way you'll be able to relate to it much better. Mistakes are required for growth yet no one wants to make it. We avoid mistakes in order to strive for perfection. An illusion that only lives in ones mind. This article was inspired by @ExpertWritter , you can check out his latest post, he wrote about two of his favorite songs that inspires him to write. One…
Ragnarok - the doom of the gods *Are you a fan of Norse Mythology? If the answer is No, please keep an open mind while reading this article.* *I came across this topic years ago when I saw the movie - Vikings, the movie tells the story of Ragner Lotbrok, who led the Vikings to England for the first time from Norway (based on actual events).* *It so happens that I love a good mystery so I went further to dig deep.* ***Ragnarok*** *to the Vikings is similar to the*…
Oh my word!!!! Thank you so much for this sponsorship @Sequoia I am so happy and lucky to have you as my sponsor, I won't dissapoint you....yayyy...a good morning it is.
My first trade experience *"Sweat on my forehead, my heart is racing, I can't seem to take a sit, I can't stand either, I start pacing, I'm getting annoyed, why won't you go back up, please just go up!"* `Please note that this article is not to distract you or encourage you to get into anything you're not ready for, I'm not trying to promote any organization or broker, I'm simply sharing my first experience as a trader.` **IT** was the first semester break, the West African…
It's okay August 17, 2021 It's 7pm right now in Nigeria, I usually just record my thought with a voice record and then wait till midnight when I'm less busy to write my article, but not today. I have just finished eating dinner and had a little more time to kill before my reading alarm rings, as you may well know, at least some of you if you read my article on Procastination so I've set out my to-do list with an alarm and a record of my voice screaming at myself to get up…
The heart want what it wants **This is a way of me putting a full stop to the story I started on read. cash about "My First Crush".** After publishing it I had a lot of people asking for a close-up to this story, a lot of things happened along the way which I will make mention along the way as I continue writing articles here on read.cash. Okay, here goes the period of my life I will never forget. `check out my wonderful sponsors` **BEFORE I ASKED HER OUT** I was in high…
What a beautiful morning it has been, with so much gratitude in my heart I thank you so much @Mictorrani for the sponsorship, I won't disappoint you
If time travelling existed Lead image source https://www.thoughtco.com/time-travel-into-the-past-3072603 Growing up I've always had really weird imaginations and one of them is this **I believe time travel is real** As little kids, it was always amazing and fascinating when we called our uncles on the phone who lived abroad at night only to discover it was just dawn over there. *"Mom, how is that possible?"* We were too young to understand the concept behind the rotation of…
Yayy, another sponsor, thank you @renren16 for this sponsorship, I'll do my best to show how grateful I am of this opportunity

Yaayyy...finally I've been able to catch up on all the articles, they were so lovely. I'm thankful for the support and the sponsorship @renren17, thank so much.
Near-Death experience ***Where do we go when we fall asleep?*** ***Are dreams a gateway into another world?*** ***Where do we go when we die?*** These are but a small fraction of some of the curiosities that remain unsolved in my mind. Death is inevitable we all know this, but are we ready for what lies after? Do we even know what lies after? Heaven? Hell? The mere concept of dying doesn't sound soothing and I'm sure it's a really weird topic, regardless I would like to…
My Heartbreak Playlist Lead image source from Unsplash https://unsplash.com Music has a way of directly impacting the mental state of anyone depending on your mood. It is often said that a heartbroken person does not only listen to the music but also the lyrics. This article was a prompt inspired by @HappyBoy We all have that go-to song we can relate to one way or the other when we feel sad or heartbroken, here are my Top 11 heartbreak songs. `Please note that these songs…
When do we stop dreaming? Lead Image Source from Unsplash https://unsplash.com It's the start of a new week, hopefully, I will be more productive as compared to last week. My examinations will be coming up in a few weeks which means less time to phone, more time to book. I tried following a timetable as to when I write my articles but it just didn't feel right, it felt... Forced, so I've adopted a new method of writing out how I feel on my notepad as soon as possible and…
Hello friends, I'll be starting a series on a pure work of fiction, I hope you find it entertaining, it has been in production for a long time in my head and now it's time for these thoughts to fly
Fate, why me? -Part 1 **Harry's POV** *Harry! Harry! Run! Save yourself!* *Mother - he called back.* *Run! Run!* *Come here boy - an angry man's voice called out .* *Blip blip* - the alarm rings out - I had been dreaming, that same old dream, I don't seem to recall what it was about except that I had to run, run from what? More like from Who? Who was that man anyway? I suffer from amnesia, I was told I had been involved in an accident a few years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Smith…
Fate, why me? - Part 2 Harry has just found a letter with the answer to what he had always wondered Who his parents were **Harry's POV** This day seems longer than usual, do I want to know who my birth parents are? I have been doing well without them? Who was the mystery person who left that letter for me? Do I tell Mom what just happened? How would she react? Harry, can you summarize what I just explained - Miss Audrey called my attention *"The, Uhm, the" -* I stammer, I…
It's with a painful heart that I have to this. Fate, why me? (A work of fiction) Will be on hold for now until I'm done with the semester's examinations, but I will continue to post really interesting articles until then... Thanks for all the support xoxo
Through it all, Smile Oh! What a day It has been a really busy and exhausting day, having classes, projects, and examinations to prepare for, it's just so overwhelming. Did I mention classes? oh yes, Virtual classes, a punishment that has been bestowed upon us by our lecturers and the school, we use up a lot of data coupled with bulky materials, thanks to COVID-19 (No thanks). It wouldn't be fair to complain, people have graduated from this same department and moved on to…
Do not watch it alone!!! Lead image source http://www.unsplash.com I like to think of movies as a writers imagination brought to life, which makes me wonder *"how do writers of horror movies sleep at night?"* Haha, you're probably thinking about it right now. I don't know about you but the thought of that freaks me out - and this is coming from me, the weird kid. Regardless of this fact, I do know that a lot of people enjoy the thrill of such movies (wink! I know I do).…
This is a special thank you Note to @Bloghound, thank you so much for this sponsorship, I'm grateful

My escape from reality Lead image source It's another busy day, examinations are coming up for the semester, every lecturer is trying to cover up on some of the things they couldn't by either forcing us to an excruciatingly long Virtual lectures, not that it helps, after the first 60 minutes my brain just seems to loose track of what is being taught, for the remainder of the class, I only respond "Yes Sir", " No question Sir", "we can go on Sir". Anything to quicken the pace…
Throwback to Childhood Lead image Source I seem to recall how much I wanted to be a grown-up when I was a kid, the things I imagined I would do, the life I would live, the goals and dreams I would achieve not to even mention the freedom. Now I'm old enough and I just want to be a little boy again. That little kid was happy, no worries, no stress, no responsibilities. Those were the good times. Are you a fan of NF? If you aren't, you should check out some of his songs, this…
Is there more to life than this? ***Today I'm going to do something different, writing is so easy when it comes from within, not forced (as I have learned from my friends here on read cash). I have no idea where this is going but I will let my fingers do the magic of expressing my heart with letters.*** ***This is just me sharing my mind, thoughts, and perceptions as a writer, it may differ from yours.*** Introduction Something is stirring from within and I can't quite put…
