Soft glam, Golden eye look created by me. Ever since I finished my makeup training, I haven't stopped practicing for myself and other people. Just like the say goes, the best teacher is yourself. I have been facing a challenge that is similar to the one I mentioned about my vlogging plan. After working on someone, I usually feel discouraged to post the picture and photo because it doesn't come out the way I want it to. The look I created came from my creative mind, when next…

No way to go home. Anna Shvets https://www.pexels.com/photo/woman-sitting-on-luggage-3943882/ In the past, there have been several theories about this saying, however, it has come to stay. By now she would understand that life does always go as planned. You plan to get his way but life brings something completely different that one can't fathom. Today was one of those days when she got stranded. She had hoped that she would use the arm machine when she gets to the next bus…

When I'm under the weather. Recently I've been a bit under the weather and I think I should blame it on harmattan and the dust that comes with it. As a chorister in my church, it affected my vocal cords to that I find it hard to sing, even when I try, what I end up hearing is not just pleasing. For some reason, due to the weather, the phlegm that stays in my throat has been refusing to go away. This whole thing started at the beginning of January. 1️⃣ Feeling under the…

Can spirituality and technology stay together? On seeing this topic '*CAN SPIRITUALITY AND TECHNOLOGY LIVE TOGETHER'* in the eco train community, the first question which popped up in my mind was this; **Does spirituality and Technology have anything in common?** I feel that the answer isn't far from us. There was no technology at the beginning of the word but there was spirituality. I can say that Spirituality gave birth to technology which has greatly changed the world…

Full coverage pink eye look. I worked on a client's face on Wednesday, I planned to write and won't pictures about it sooner but couldn't find the energy to do so. Ps: This is a tutorial, this is me showcasing my work on the read.cash platform and I would love to get feedback on it. Before I proceed to show the pictures and videos, I would like to mention something before I forget. I just want to say that I'm grateful for all the encouraging words I've been getting on my…

Faith and luck. Have you experience faith at work? Have you been lucky? Do you think they are the same? Andre piacquadio https://www.pexels.com/photo/woman-in-blue-tank-top-smiling-3807762/ Faith is known as the substance of things hoped for, you need something so you hope to get it, even though you've not gotten it yet, with faith you believe that you have it already and it is there with you. Now, what is luck? According to my research, it is simply a force that brings…

I didn't see that coming. Lead image by Willsantt https://www.pexels.com/photo/woman-in-orange-dress-with-braided-hair-1962844/ Yesterday was Saturday. Saturdays are meant for choir rehearsals where I worship so as a chorister I never miss going for the rehearsals, it's already known as a Saturday thing for me. Ever since the third week in December when we had the Christmas carol in my church, my hair had not been in any protective style reason being that I have had a…

Destiny and Karma, can they both be true? What's destiny? In a simple sentence, it means a necessary event that will happen in one's life in the future. No wonder we hear statements like *"oh! That was is destiny"*. Destiny is also known as the pre-ordained path of a person's life, most of the time, we usually don't have enough control over our destiny, we just go with the flow of whatever we see. No doubt, believing in destiny is certainly a spiritual feeling. This topic is…

Wednesday walk: center of excellence. Hello, beautiful people another beautiful day that happens to be the day for the Wednesday walk challenge. I left the house quite early on Monday morning, I had to get to somewhere at Ikeja which is the capital of Lagos, the center of excellence in Nigeria. I got there as early as I could but had to with for some more hours before I was finally attended to. Due to the queue that was already there, I just had no choice but to wait till it…

A mini reflection. How far from home https://www.pexels.com/photo/red-flower-on-white-sand-6788862/ To be honest, I've never asked myself this before, however, I'm not gonna beat myself up for it because it's not a crime hehe. I had to pause so I could think, what character traits do I possess? Though the question is, what is your best character trait. Growing up, I've always been a kind of reserved person, reserved in a good way. Speaking about friends, I have them coming…

Call the number Before I begin this post, I would like to write this first. You know, in every family, each child is known for one thing which everyone recognizes him as. In my family, I'm the one who is known to always have airtime to call anyone at any point in time and for as long as the call is needed to be on, all thanks to my network service provider, whenever I make a recharge, I'm always given bonus airtime to call all network. One reason why I have to recharge…

Effective communication in marriage. I have discovered that many marriages today gets dissolved due to reason that can be ironed out when there is effective communication. Earlier today, I attended a program for couples. While I was there listening to everyone that was asking and answering questions, I discovered that truly, no home is perfect, and almost every marriage experience the same problem. There are challenges I experience in my home which make me feel bad and…

Valentine's day Anna Tarazevich https://www.pexels.com/photo/woman-in-red-long-sleeve-shirt-holding-red-paper-bag-5740547/ Guess what I'm doing right now???? In one of my previous posts, I mentioned that a day called valentine didn't even occur to me, it just came and went, I seriously wasn't in the right state of mind to think about anything especially love. Things are different this year though, I am in the right state of mind to wish everyone a happy valentine's day. I…

The Wedding Bell is ringing 💍 🔔 Where do I start from sharing this goodness? I should start with appreciating God for the life of a fellow blogger, a friend, a sister, a role model, a loving person, a beautiful lady, a genius, a very good writer, an intelligent lady, there are many more attributes believe me. I didn't know this lady until the year 2020 during the pandemic period. At that time, everyone was observing the stay-at-home rules in other to curb the spread of the…

Don't want a boring conversation? Try this. Cottonbro https://www.pexels.com/photo/woman-in-red-long-sleeve-shirt-sitting-on-chair-4778622/ I'm the kind of person who sucks at gisting or having a conversation with people. That may probably be one reason I don't bother keeping friends. One may think that I don't want to talk to them or something of that nature whereas the main thing is that I don't have anything to talk about, because of this, I dread having visitors in my…

Why I love gardens. ***Do you know that there are things you feel that you know, you also feel confident about the fact that you know this thing but when you take the time to ask yourself, you find out that you don't know it. Can you relate?*** I've been faced with some challenges which have held me back from participating in this #GroVid22 challenge. The last time I joined the PyPt Thursday show, @bluefinstudio made it was known that one doesn't need to have a garden before…

I satisfied my cravings partially with this... Marlene Leppanen https://www.pexels.com/photo/faceless-person-cutting-sausage-while-preparing-lunch-in-kitchen-4393361/ I decided to write from my kitchen, to be honest, though, I am not in my kitchen right now hehe. For 2 days now, I've been craving a particular food, white boiled yam, separately soft boiled beans, and palm-oil stew. However, I've not been able to satisfy the craving, I came up with an idea this morning that…

I was used, now I dread it. All I am about writing is how it is laid in my heart, I've discovered that it's easier to write down all you have inside just the way it comes to my mind. A question was asked by the ladies of the hive community. ***We all have chores or tasks that we abhor doing! If you're like most folks, you will put off that dreaded job as long as possible. What is the absolute most dreaded chore/task that you must do? Sum up your reaction to that task with a…

Humans are naturally impatient. I thought about contacting my counselor to discuss certain issues that are trying to make me lose my peace. I need to see her tomorrow, however, she has other clients she must have given an appointment for the new week and I may not even have access to her till next month because she may have already scheduled herself for various appointments till the month ends. I think it's safe to say that humans are naturally impatient, we can't help it,…

@JessicaOssom

Take a pause and think. There's something I feel almost everyone would be able to relate with. When you're angry, your body probably senses danger and produces a hormone called adrenaline which prepares you to attack immediately there is a need to. The same has to do with the mind. This is one reason I always say this, as humans, before we make any decision, we should always try to bring our mind back to its default state which is a state of calmness. When you're overly…

All of us are dead Never has this ever happened to me, It got me feeling so emotional that I shed a tear, it has never happened before hehe. Whoever is the brain behind this is a genius with an incredible imagination. I stayed up all night watching a suspense-filled, scary, humorous, emotional, and interesting movie. I don't know if I should call it a tragi-comedy. As at now that I write, I am done watching the movie but I'm close to the end. The movie is filled with so much…

One of the best weekend ever...wait! Will I have the strength for all of it? A week ago, I had to visit a place on Victoria Island. On my way going, as usual, we crossed the third mainland bridge. As the bus moved, I watched the ocean, imagining how wide it is, I wondered if it has an end. Hubby noticed how I was seriously watching the ocean, then he called out to me. I turned to him and told him that I love the view and would love to go into the water. I said that knowing…

Stop war in Ukraine It was only yesterday I got to see the news about the Russian war in Ukraine. To be honest, when I first saw the news I overlooked it because at first, I didn't understand what it was about. Someone posted a joke on WhatsApp status saying that no one is talking or posting things about the Russian war in Ukraine but if it's gossip about celebrities, the news would be flying around. I also noticed that I wasn't seeing many posts about it, so I guessed that…
