My Christmas and New celebration was indeed a great one
Happy new everyone.
This is my first post on read cash since this year. I'm just going to summarize how I spent my Christmas and New.
After my exam on the 23rd of December 2021, I traveled on the 24th of December to my hometown (Delta state, Nigeria). At first I thought I won't be traveling again since I didn't finish my exams early enough, but my mom insisted I travel to my hometown. On my way home at the park, I met some new friends. Traveling wasn't really stressful to me as I discussed with my friends till I got the my hometown.
It only took me 1 hour, 30minutes to get home. Everyone were very happy to see me as the last time we saw each other was January 15th 2021. Getting home, I met them cooking in the kitchen, so I had to join them to cook. I was welcomed with yam pepper soup and cold malt. I was really happy to see my nephews and nieces.
The house was really fun, I visited so many places including grandpa's house. Me, my aunt and uncle went to check out some of the things in grandpa's house because since he traveled out no one has entered his house. When we go there, the house was very dust and dirty. His car he parked outside the house was look dirty and old. After some minutes in grandpa's house, we went home to meet with the children.
We also visited the obi's palace (King), he was very pleased to see us. The king likes playing with kids, he played with my nephews and nieces. We were also entertained with drinks. Afterwards, we all went home.
The Christmas period was full of parties and merriment. We went to different parties almost everyday. I can say I really enjoyed my Christmas because it was fun for me and my family. There was enough to eat and drink, we cook like as if we were having party everyday, starting with fish frying to meat frying then cooking of varieties of foods. It got to a time I was tired of eating meat, I started having teeth pains so I had to limit my meat intake. 😂
Most of the time, my aunt will be in charge of cooking while I will be in charge of frying anything friable, there was a time hot oil spilled on my body. That day wasn't funny to me at all because I felt pains all through.
On the 1st of January 2022 was my grandma's birthday. Her children decided to fly her outside the country for her birthday. She was very happy, she celebrated her birthday with her other children and grandchildren in U.S, but we in Nigeria also celebrated her in our own way. We did video calls with her, the part I loved most was when she started shading tears of joy and she prayed for all her family, though on her birthday I wasn't feeling well. I was on medication for sometime, I know you all will say too much enjoyment 😂.
My granny turned 88years on the first of January. It was really a happy day for everyone at home and abroad. That day, there was enough to eat and drink.
There was thanksgiving day for the family. Everyone dressed in their different attire to thank God for everything he has done for us. After Thanksgiving Sunday, we took some pictures to remember this day. Everyone in the church was looking so colourful. My aunt didn't forget to snap with her husband separately. Lol
On the 11th of January 2022, we traveled to Enugu State, Nigeria for a burial Ceremony of my aunties father-in-law. On our way we encountered some challenges, but we finally got there thanks to God. I never knew I would see a masquerade at the burial Ceremony, I did not only see a masquerade, I saw many of them displaying in their different way.
At first I asked my aunt if it's their tradition for a masquerade to show up during burial Ceremony but she told me you can only see a masquerade when a chief dies. So yes, my aunt's father-in-law was a chief before he died. More than 20 masquerades came to the burial ground but I couldn't take pictures of them all because we had to go back Delta state that same day.
Even the traditional music players were on ground singing and dancing to their tradition. It was really a celebration of life and I can say I had fun in another state. It was time to go home, though I wasn't happy we were going to leave the ceremony, but we had to in order to get home early. When we got to Delta state, the kids were sleeping because we got home 1:20am. We didn't travel with the kids because it was a very long journey and I don't think they will be able to withstand the traffic and every other thing on the way.
Few days later, I prepared myself to travel back to school Ekpoma, Edo state, Nigeria. When I got to the bus station, I had to wait for other passengers to come, I waited for quite sometime before we finally left for Edo state. Getting to school, my friends were so happy to see me and I was also happy to see them.
I enjoyed my stay in hometown and I will love to go there again for any celebration because there is no dulling moment at home. Everyone are fun to be with.
How did you celebrate your Christmas and New?

Childhood memories - the most embarrassing moment
My childhood has always been so fun with few of my friends around me. One of my best moment in life was when I was younger, if I could go back to my childhood just to have this fun again, I would.
I spent most of my childhood with my friends always playing around the house. Some time we even play games like hide and seek. just few of my friends where allowed to visit me. The most embarrassing moment or should I say awkward moment I had was when I went to fetch water at the tank side.
The area we lived, was where you had to fetch water for yourself if you really needed it. As usual, I have been fetching water from the tank and everything had been going smoothly, but one faithful day at the tank, I decided to run my mouth like a running water. Lol
Should I say I wanted to be noticed by everyone or maybe I was beginning to like the young guy at the water tank side🤣🤣.One aboki man was actually fetching water to go and sell to someone and he mistakenly dropped the fetcher into the tank and there was no way to fetch water again, so I started shouting at him to find a way to get it out, but he turned a deaf ear.
In the process of shouting and making mouth lol, the young guy came and told me to keep quiet. What did you just say, I should keep quiet?, I asked him and he said yes.
One thing for sure, I don't like to be insulted by anyone, so telling me to keep quiet is more like I didn't know what I was saying. So I found it so offensive and I started talking to the young guy rudely. It was beginning to look like a fight, but I never wanted to be defeated. Lol.
I wanted him to apologise to me because I wasn't talking to him at the first place, then the unexpected happened 😲😲, he told me to keep quiet if not he would slap me. What? Slap me? If you can then do it and before I knew it, he slapped me 😳. At that moment I was confused, this is not the kind of being noticed I wanted.
I never wanted to cry but I couldn't control the tears so I ran back home to report him to my parents. My dad was very offended and immediately he told me to show him the guy. Another embarrassment, at first I was thinking what he wanted to do to him but he didn't show it instead he dragged me to show him the guy.
Getting to the water side, he wasn't there, they people there said he had already finished fetching water and he had gone home for the day. I thought that was the end, my dad had to trace him to his guidance house, I couldn't hold it but to start crying again.
I couldn't control my tears as everything was beginning to upset me. At the end we found him and my dad took him to his guidance and told them what happened. On our way back home, I had him shouting, meaning he was being beaten by his guidance for touching a small girl.
If only I knew what was going to happen, I would have just kept short, and not talk to anyone. I wouldn't have said I wanted to be noticed because it caused a lot of problems to everyone including me. Ever since then, whenever the guy sees me he will take another route, he never wanted to see me nor talk to me again.

What do you think prevent actions?
At time we have to stand up and take action in life, but people seems to be okay with the way life is taking them. How can you sit comfortably at home thinking manners will come from heaven.
One thing that is killing our youths now is PROCRASTINATION. you intend to do something tomorrow and before you know it, you will feel so lazy and then push it to the next day. This continues to happen everytime and before you know it, you're old and then you must have wasted your youthful age into doing nothing.
At time we don't have to wait for our parents to do everything for us, or even wait for the government to provide food for your table. Though the government still have their own part to play, but you as a person still have yours to play too.
I remembered an advice an old man gave me when I visited my home town. He said "my daughter, you have a nice and wonderful future ahead of you, do not waste your time on things that doesn't count in your life and remember my daughter, you can only make your future brighter, don't misuse the opportunity you have now so you don't get to regret it later in life".
His words really touched me and I felt for him. Because when he was younger, he had the opportunity to do many things that would have better his life, but he kept on PROCRASTINATING until it was too late for him. You never can tell a person's story until you're in that situation.
As we're entering into a new year, it's good you make a new year resolution. One of the resolution should be:
To put a stop to procrastination and make a better name for yourself and for your family too.
Setup a target on things you want to accomplish and try your best to accomplish them.
Is not just to make a target, do you have the mindset or the ability to work towards that? Do you have the ability to make a good name for your family?. Think positively of yourself and make things work out for better.
If you want to setup a business as a young man/lady, put in your efforts into the business if you want it to grow and also be patient
Many people want a fast action, meaning they want to have their income without undergoing the normal process, that is why you see many youths engaging themselves into stealing or any dubious means to get money.
As a young person, you need to have a vision on what you want to do and your mindset towards it also matters.
They're still other new year resolutions you can make, and remember is not just to make a new year resolution, also put it into action.
On the government part of procrastination, what is keeping them from paying the Academic Staff Union Of Universities (ASUU)? they promise to do something the next thing, they fail to keep their own promise. Now the ASUU are planning to go on nation wide strike which means that the whole school in Nigeria will be shutdown Because of the government failure to keep to their own promise.
Many things has gone wrong in Nigeria just because the government keeps on procrastinating on what they want to do to make Nigeria a better country.
I still remember before they are being elected, they made a lot of promises like providing adequate security, good education for the less privilege who are finding it difficult to pay their tuition fee but still have the interest in going to school.
What about the provision of pipe Borne water to the under developed cities, most of them still suffer from different illness because of dirty water.
I think what is killing the government from keeping their own part of their promise is procrastination, and it's high time we stop that. It's high time we make a difference for ourselves, for our country and for the betterment of others too. Let's learn how to care for people and stop being selfish on our own part 😉.

The Best Action to be taken
If you ask me the best kind of action to taken, I will say that they are many of them especially in my country Nigeria.
The world we're living in is full of many mischief and misleading. The country is a very corrupt one, you don't know who to be careful with. Even the ones you call friends can turn their back on you once crisis comes.
On a daily basis, people are being kidnapped, killed just because of the insecurities we have in our country. This insecurities should be the government number one priority.
Just yesterday, over 17 people traveling with commercial bus were kidnapped, and no one is saying anything about it. The State government and the president is totally quiet about the issue. Many people are afraid to travel through land because they think they might be kidnapped too.
As it is now, I'm even afraid to travel back to my home town because the insecurities is just too much. Many cases of kidnapping and killings has been reported, the more the cases increases, the more the government keeps quite about it, they are making me think that they're afraid of the kidnappers. Lol
Come to think of it🤔, if they weren't afraid or if they knew what they're doing, this issue would have been addressed long ago. Please, this should be tackled without any further delay because people are dying on a daily basis. The Government should please hear our cries😩
Another important action that needs to be taken without further delay is the issue of bad roads. This is going to all the State government because if we're waiting for the president to do it, it means we have to wait for ever 😂
On my way to school yesterday, a car almost hit a bike man trying to cross the road because he wanted to by-pass the bad road. Thank God no one got injured 😢, please issue of bad roads should be addressed too to avoid unnecessary accident on the road.
As for me, if this two things can be taken care of, then the others can follow. I wouldn't say that these are just the only actions that needs to be taken into consideration, they're many of them, but to me, I think this is the most important in my country now.

A little Act of kindness
It all started in 2006 when I lost my Mom, I was taken by a young lady who promise my dad that she will take very good care of me. When I got to her house, I was welcomed by her family. I remembered she had a little daughter who was five months old then and her lovely husband. They were just lovely family and then, I joined the family.
I was treated like I was part of the family, infact, she always call me her daughter despite the fact that we were not related in anyway. I was so pleased and relaxed knowing fully well that it another home for me.
I came from family of seven, but I was the only taken by that lovely lady. She tried everything possible for me to go to school, her kindness towards me was just so amazing that if you didn't know her before, you would think I was her first daughter. I never lacked anything, I remembered she told me if I needed anything, I should ask her and if she doesn't have, she would look for a way to get it for me. It's very hard to see an act of kindness from someone not related to you.
As time goes on, I went to school and she made sure she paid my tuition fee right from middle school till date she's still paying my tuition fee.
When I lost my Dad in 2014, she made a promise to me that she will always be there for me and I shouldn't be sad for anything. She became my dad and my mom to the extent that when her daughter grew up she taught I was her elder sister lol. Yeah I'm her elder sister not by birth but by chance. She's always there for me and she has be providing for me both financially and otherwise.
I believe there are still kind people out there who are willing to help others. This lovely lady is actually one of them and ever since then I have been calling her mom because she's a true definition of a mother.
Her act of kindness has brought me this far in life and I'm who I am today because of her. It would have been hard to further my education after the death of my parents but she made everything easy for me. What more can I ask for in life.
I will never forget the act of kindness she has shown to me and the love she showered on me. It might be had to take care of someone or to help someone, but the little you have try as much as possible to give.
What I'm trying to say in essence is that any opportunity you have to help someone, do so. It very good to show an act of kindness to someone 🙂

Exam time
It's very hard to see a young girl that is not involved in one or two things, some might be in school while some have their own business making money.
Well as for me, I'm still a student and exams are fast approaching and I really need to prepare for the exam. Though I have being trying to put one or two things together, I hope God help me out.
Ever since I found out that I will be starting my exam soon, I felt like I needed to put in more effort in my studies. I know I haven't been trying lately because of the social media and everything. So with time, you won't be seeing my post as often as before but any little opportunity I have, I will definitely stop by to write or put something down here.
Though it might be difficult trying to do both, if I see I can't withstand the two, I will have to drop one and of course I will choose my studies because there will always be plenty of time to make money.
Please wish me good luck in my exam, I will be needing all the best wishes from everyone here and I hope I get so many from you all.

Can we agree that cooking and cleaning is a basic life skill and not a gender roles?
In the modern era which we live in, considering cooking and cleaning as a women’s job just doesn’t make sense. For ages, cooking was considered as a skill which only women should know. This was due to traditional influence that the men are to provide for the family while the women's place, is in the kitchen and tidying up the house. If this wasn't imposed by our parents back in those days, men wouldn't have seen it as a gender roles.
Cooking and cleaning can be a passion for some people who enjoy doing them. If cooking is one’s passion, it cannot be considered as a chore; rather it can be a fun activity that makes you feel content seeing others enjoy your food. I could remember vividly a friend from Benue state, he cooks a lot and many girls fall for him because of his food. He used the fact that he knows how to cook to get girls 🤣, funny right? I actually do enjoy his food but I know there are still men out there who can cook but still find it as a gender roles for the women.
There should be a mutual understanding between family members that they should split the work according to ones capability, one may be good at cooking, while the other may be good at cleaning, the work shouldn't be just for the ladies in the house or the women. It's not always easy for the women to take care of the family, the house chores and her job is still there to take care of. Of course, no man wants to marry a liability in the house, gone are those days when men marry a full house wife just because they want to make a name for themselves, most men wants a hard working lady that will contribute to the family's growth and not just someone who will sit at home all day.
Society always try to define the role of a woman and how these roles should be carried out, she's expected to do some certain things and they forget that men are also to help or assist in their own way, but anytime she makes a mistake Or whenever something goes wrong, they put the blame on the women. Women should be treated with respect and care, at times when somethings goes wrong, we shouldn't jump into conclusion that it's the women's fault, but instead, we should investigate the matter before point fingers. Men may be at fault in some cases, women shouldn't be blamed for men's wrong doings.
Most women are more nurturing and men more goals oriented, no one is disputing that fact, but there are some women who are go-getters. What we're aiming at is gender equality Where everyone is treated equally and given equal rights irrespective of their gender.
Cooking and cleaning are basic skills everyone should learn, being clean and hygienic is a basic necessities, and there is no gender roles for that.

Cryptocurrency security
Cryptocurrencies shows potential innovation and benefits to many people in the world but this opportunity might also create challenges and disruption if not properly managed. In as much as the globe is dealing with cryptocurrencies now, we still have those who think they can rip from where they did not sow.
I think the world should be educated about the resent happenings on the insecurities of cryptocurrencies. Many people just trade with cryptocurrencies but they don't know the dangers in it. I'm pretty sure if the Government have the ability to manipulate or change some things in the crypto world, it would have been disastrous for many people especially the Nigerians but thank God, cryptocurrency can't be printed.
I trade and invest on cryptocurrencies and I will be telling you how I handle or secure my wallet. The first time I started trading on cryptocurrency, I was a little bit confused on some things there, but with the help of a friend, I was able to understand it quickly and easily without any challenges. Though I won't say I'm perfect in handling all these things but the little I know, I will share with you.
I started with Trust Wallet, I'm sure most of you know Trust Wallet. I traded with some of the cryptocurrencies there and I had to learn how to secure it in other to prevent outsiders from seeing what I have made. You know at time, someone might ask for your phone to run an urgent matter or to call someone, the funniest thing is that after giving him the phone, you won't know what he/she will do or might see in your phone, the best way is just to put in security code to those apps which are very important to you or those apps you're trading with.
If possible you can freeze the apps to avoid unnecessary regret later. I remembered a friend who was traveling to another state to meet with her family, on her way, they were stop by the police. The police were checking them one after the other when they got to a particular young guy, he was asked to open his phone and when they saw his wallet, they asked him to open it and immediately he was asked to transfer the whole money he had in his wallet to them. Immediately my friend saw what was going on, she had to freeze all her wallet she was trading with and when she was asked to open her phone, they couldn't find anything.
This is very sad, the police who are supposed to be protecting us have become the ones stealing our money instead. I was so surprised when she told me her story and thank God she was able to freeze her account if not they would have taken her money too. What I'm trying to say in essence is that, there are many people out there who doesn't want to earn money genuinely or who doesn't want to go through a long process making money but only want what is ready at hand. They are looking for who to steal from.
They are many ways you can secure your wallet from fraudster, you can start with inputting a security code, then when traveling especially the Nigerians, try to freeze those apps you're trading with, it will save you a lot.

My Night Time Rituals-Before Bedtime
I never believed I had bedtime rituals until this question pumped in, and I began to reflect on the things I do before going to bed. Is quite amazing I do all this things every night and not noticing it as bedtime routine, how funny can that be?😂
What I do before bed has a great impact in me as I like to wake up the next day feeling refreshed and feeling good. Here are some of my bedtime rituals;
Firstly, I like to do some workout in my room as it helps me relax my mind and refreshes me the next day. Apart from relaxing my mind, I believe it will also help me burn some calories as I try everyday to reduce in weight. Research review that exercising before bedtime will relax the mind and this will make you sleep better especially when you're having difficulty to sleep. But the reason why I workout before bedtime and in the morning is to keep fit.
Secondly, I like to take my bath with cold water. Most people ask me the reason why I prefer using cold water to bath instead of hot water or better still warm water, I still don't have answers to their questions. All I know is that cold water makes me more relaxed and I don't like using hot water to bath. At time they even call me cold blooded animal 😂.
I have come to realized that I don't miss taking a bath before bedtime and of course while bathing, I will have to brush my teeth in other not to have some bacteria in my mouth before sleeping and that has turn to my bedtime routine. I tried sleeping one day without bathing, and I couldn't sleep, at the end I had to bath at the middle of the night because it's already part of me. lol
Thirdly, I check my Facebook, WhatsApp and every other social media I belong to. I have to check if there's anything messages I have to reply or if there's any news that I have to familiarize myself with before going to bed. I also call my friend on WhatsApp before bedtime, I can't imagine a night without talking to him or hearing his voice. At least, after talking to him, I can sleep like a baby knowing that someone out there loves and cares for me.😍
Lastly, i meditate/pray to God. Prayer is what ends my bedtime rituals. In as much as I have time to do other things, I must create time to pray to my God because I wouldn't have made it this far if not for him. I know many people pray before bedtime, so prayers will be if not all but most people night rituals. We pray for many things depending on individual's mindset.
We all in one way or the other have our bedtime rituals, and these are mine. I will love if you can share some of your bedtime rituals with me by commenting on my post, let's make this fun.

My ideal weekend - Thinking Of A Special Weekend
This question got me thinking on how and where I will like to spend
my weekend and with whom I will love to spend it with.
My weekends are an important time to unplug from my day-to-day activities and get a chance to think more deeply about my personal life. Weekends are a great chance for me to reflect and be more introspective about bigger issues. In as much as I want to be alone and enjoy my weekend without being disturbed, I will still love to spend time with someone very special to me.
I know if people were given a chance to make a choice on where they want to spend their weekend and with who, they will rather prefer to run away from the house especially those with kids. According to some parents " Taking care of kids is not always easy because you will have to focus on them first before thinking about yourself". Some of them will even say if you're not ready for responsibilities, don't bother getting a child now.
Many successful people usually spend their weekends participating in a combination of family activities with their kids and spouse, errands and creative activities to exercise the right side of the brain. They are always focus on what they want to do and their weekends and the week looks very similar.
My weekends always looks similar like the previous ones and I will like to make a change by doing things that I have always wished to do. At times, I even sit in my room fantasizing some places that I would like to spend my weekend. Lol
First I will avoid everything that has to do with chores because every weekend have a few have-to-dos, but I will want this to take a minimum amount of time. Going on a vacation to Lagos State with my sister won't be a bad idea. I feel I really need to spend enough time with her and being around her makes me very happy.
So spending a weekend with her at the best and most beautiful hotel in Lagos won't be a bad idea. Of course, we won't just stay in the hotel doing nothing, we'll visit different places like the beach. But before going to the beach, we'll first go to the salon to get a new hair do. For sure we have to look very beautiful for our weekend hangout 😊
When we get to the hotel (eko hotel), we'll first have a cool shower, then order for grilled chicken, a very delicious rice with nice champagne to step it down before going to the swimming pool to rest a little. The next place we'll be visiting will be the beach where we will be having enough fun with some people and there will be a nice champagne to cool the body. From there, we'll heading to the mall, am sure it will be fun shopping with my sister. We'll shop for many things we need, I won't forget to buy ice cream 😋 I so much love ice cream and I'm sure my sister will also like it.
After shopping, I'm sure we'll be very tired so we'll head back to the hotel to rest. The next day on my weekend hangout with my sister, we'll be going for boat cruise Hahaha. I have never gone for boat cruise, so having it with my sister for the first time with be a nice experience. Though, I might be scared but before you know it, I will be taking pictures with my sister not minding the dangers in it. Lol
We'll use the cab to visit some amazing places in Lagos State like the The National museum and national stadium before going back home.
It will be a memorable weekend I have had so far and I'm sure I won't forget the Bond I have with my sister. If possible I will love to do this if not all but most of my weekends. At least, my weekends shouldn't always be about chores and errands weekend lol...

My favorite places in Nigeria
Nigeria is a beautiful country full of milk and honey. It is home to the second largest film industry on the globe whilst also being the fashion, technological and creative hubbies in Africa. Nigerians are known for their vibrant and friendly energy expressed through diverse creative expressions.
As a Nigerian, there are lots of places I haven't been to and I will love to explore those places since I have heard good things about them. There was a time i visited Benue state which is know for the slogan "food basket of the nation". I enjoyed my stay in Benue state as their main occupation there is farming. I ate a lot of fresh foods, I even visited the capital which is Makurdi. The state is really amazing.
Some of my favorite places in Nigeria are:
**Port Harcourt**
Port Harcourt is the capital of River State located in the southern part of Nigeria and is well known for their oil production. I have heard so many nice things about this state and I will love to explore the whole place. There was even a time I told myself that i will like to serve in port Harcourt.
**Jos which is the capital of plateau**
Jos is a city in the Middle Belt of Nigeria. Jos is known for their commercial and tourist centre. Jos is one of the coldest region in Nigeria which I will love to visit someday. One of the places I will like to visit when I get to Jos is The golf course which is located in Rayfield, Jos has hosted many golfing competitions with players coming from both within and outside the state. I will also like the visit the stadium and many other places there.
**Lagos state**
Lagos is the largest and most populated City in Nigeria, It is the major African financial center. It is located in the western part of Nigeria, dominated by the yorubas. I spent most of my time in Lagos and every place I visited was just so amazing. The reason why I love lagos is because the people there are always willing and ready to help. Some of the places I visited while I was in Lagos State include: ikeja, lagos island, Ikoyi, Ikorodu to mention a few. If you ask me, I will like to base in Lagos State. 😜😜
My other favorite places are Calabar, Abuja and Delta state. I remember the first time i went to Calabar to write JAMB (Joint Admission and Matriculation Board), I was so pleased with what I saw. The state is very beautiful and the people there are also lovely. If I am given the opportunity, I will explore the whole Nigeria. Hahaha

My Dream Profession Still On My Mind - Not Minding The Challenges
Since my childhood, any time I was asked what I wanted to be in the future, I will give an answer with boldness that I wanted to be a medical doctor. My parents always wanted the best for me, they made sure I never lacked anything in school. Anytime I was asked to buy textbooks or anything related to school work, they try as much as possible to provide for me even when they didn't have much.
During my primary school, I always come out top in my class. I remember a friend of mine called Joy Ashinze, I'm not surprised I still remember her name because we were very close then. Joy and I always struggled to come first in class positions. Anytime I came out first, she came out second and vise versa. When ever my teacher asked Joy and I what we wanted to become in the future, we will both said 'Medical doctor'.
After my primary six exams, Joy and I entered secondary school and we made sure our friendship didn't end but everything did end when we relocated to different places, we both lost communication and I made new friends. My first year in my new school, I took 4th position and I wasn't happy. With time I came back to my position and my mom never stop providing for me. I eventually finished my secondary school and it was time to go to the university to study my dream course 😊
I applied for medicine and surgery at the University of Ilorin but I wasn't given admission. I was finally given admission but it was at the polytechnic to study science laboratory technology (SLT). I wasn't happy with that because I have always wanted to be a medical doctor. My mom wasn't happy but she said we can still start from somewhere, so I went to study SLT hoping that I will use the result to study my dream course, instead I was given microbiology 😔. It was more like they never wanted me to achieve my dream but my happiness was my mom, she never stop cheering me up. She's always telling me that I will definitely become what I wanted in life all I need is Determination.
Though, I am still studying Microbiology at the University and I still plan on achieving my dream no matter what. I still believe I can become a medical doctor. I some much like the profession because I love the fact that I can help save someone's life.
Their outfits are also a part of what attracts me to the profession, they're always looking smart, intelligent and ready to serve the human health care services... I find it fulfilling just thinking about it.
I'm still very much focused in becoming a medical doctor in the future no matter how long it will take. They may be hurdles on the way but with payer and positive mindset on getting there, I will become a medical doctor not just a medical doctor but beautiful smart looking one 😂

The hardest Truth I have learned
I have come to understand that this world is a give and take. Why did I say so? It's because of what I have experienced, I thought it was all a lie but later turn out to be true.
My relationship with my daddy wasn't a close one but I try as much as possible to communicate with him. We lost communication after I left the house but that didn't mean I don't love him, I do love him so much. I remembered after some years I left the house, he called me to come and visit him but I told him that I was not ready to come back home that and I promised to visit when I'm ready. I never knew it was urgent, he never told me he was passing through a lot.
A year later after he called me to come over to the house, I heard that he was dead😔😔, I never believed when my elder brother called me on phone to tell me about this tragic news. I found it so hard to believe what ever they were saying. At the end I had to accept the fact that he was dead😭😭😭. I regretted not visiting him when I hard the chance to.
When I asked my brother the reason for his death, he told me he had stroke for a very long time and he has been unable to move from place to place. I felt so disappointed in myself, I wasn't there when he needed me the most. Ever since then, I have promised myself never to joke or play around when it comes to family.
This has also thought me a lot on how to show love and care to people because I felt I didn't show enough love and care to my dad. I hope people we learn never to take anyone for granted, try to be on time when ever they need your help before it will be too late.
***Another Hardest Truth - Trust issue in relationships***
I have come to realize that not all relationship is perfect. Many relationship today is broken because of one issue or the other. But like they say "what is meant to be will be".
I started having trust issues after my first relationship, I believe all guys are the same. They tend to cheat at the slightest opportunity they have, and the most annoying part is that they always deny it when you confront them. But if you make any small mistake, they will take it to be the biggest offence to them, they might even breakup with you in the process.
Ever since I found out that he cheated and we parted our ways, I have come to believe that all guys are the same and because of that, I tend not to trust guy that comes my way. I am still telling myself that there are good guys out there but I'm yet to meet them. Lol

White lies - Those 'little' supposedly harmless lies, which one do you tell?
At times we tend to tell lies that seems not to affect us in any way not knowing that it may affect the other person. But sometimes when you are being truthful, you may hurt someone's feelings, all these things makes us to tell lies that seems to be harmless to them. Before going further I will like to start with the definition White lies.
White lies is a lie about a small or unimportant matter that someone tells to avoid hurting another person. Sometimes you might decide to tell your mother that her meatloaf is delicious when you know fully well that you hate the meatloaf or telling your friend that her outfit is very fine and that it suits her very well when it is the direct opposite of it.
The reason we choose to tell these lies is to avoid people from being hurt or to avoid causing them sadness. At times, we ask ourselves if telling lies is good or bad. I remember some years back when I visited my mom and she prepared bitter leaf soup with enough meat, stock fish, the soup was very rich but I never wanted to eat even with all the tempting meat and fish because I wasn't use to that kind of meal but I didn't want to hurt her feelings so I ate the food, I even told her that the soup was very delicious. Everything I did was just to make her happy and am glad I was able to do that. I also remembered when I had to lie to a friend that I was having a stomach pain just because I never wanted to visit him 🤣🤣.
At times telling little lies can make someone happy while at times, it may worsen the case especially when the person finds out the truth.
***Are white lies good or bad?***
In most cases, we tell lies that help others, it may also be for our own benefits. The most important thing here is that no one is harmed. But in a situation where you tell a lie that harm the other person just for your own benefit, is a very bad one on your own part.
Some 'white lies' are not dishonest at all and some would be borderline cases. But it is not adviceable to tell white lies when it comes to your business or at your place of work. You wouldn't want to start up your business with a lie. Telling white lies sometimes gives room for you to lie more often and this can damage your business. There are usually better alternative to lies because you never can tell how being truthful can help someone that moment.
What are the little lies you have told someone? You might think those little lies is just to help the person or to protect the person's feelings.

Pigeons and how they interact with humans.
Pigeons are incredibly complex and intelligent animal. What makes pigeons so special is the ability to recognise each letter of the human alphabet, they can also differentiate photographs of human. Both the male and female pigeons share the responsibility of caring for their young ones, both sexes also take turn in incubating the eggs just like the humans, the parent make sure the baby is comfortable even if it is the mother that carries the baby for 9 months.
Pigeons are very friendly to human and they can be kept as pets. Since they are one of the most intelligent of all the bird species, they can be trained to save human lives at sea, they can also be used as message carriers.
Pigeons are very clean animals just like the human and they have the ability to fly up to 6,000 feet.
Pigeons and Sharon
Sharon and her mom went to the grocery store to get some things for the house, when they got to the shop, sharon requested for some candy and the mother bought it for her. Sharon is the only child of her mother, they spent quality time together having fun and her mother never forget to teach her about giving to people and caring for others.
On their way back home, sharon saw pigeons with their squabs and she decided to play with them because she loves birds. Sharon had asked her mom to buy her a bird for pet but the mother had denied the request. When she saw the pigeons she was so happy and she knew that was an opportunity for her to play with the birds.
She asked her mom if she could play with them, the mother wanted to deny her request but when she saw the happiness on her face she accepted and said "yes my daughter, you can play with them but make sure they don't eat your candy". Sharon laughed and said to the mother that she wouldn't mind sharing some of her candies with the squabs.
Sharon and her mom spent quality time playing with the pigeons and afterwards, they went home happily to prepare delicious meal for dinner, sharon ate her meal happily and she told herself she will always remember this day.

The city of Bitcoin
New York City has a new mayor, Eric Adams, who promised to make it *the city of live science, the center or cyber security, the center of self driving cars, the center of drones and last but not least the "center of Bitcoins and technology"*.
Well, this is a very bold statement and you seem to be promising to be doing that in just one year... Good luck with that!
As the new mayor of New York said: *Miami has had its run, now it's time for New York to shine*, but is it really going to happen? That remains to be seen, but whenever I hear/read of technology being put to work to benefit humanity, I'm thrilled.
I know that the less developed countries will follow suit, in probably a couple of decades afterwards. I bet Miami will not just pause everything for New York to become the technology hub of the US now.
Now, I'm thrilled about technology, as mentioned above, but you know what I would not be thrilled of, self driving cars that would take the pleasure of driving away while conditioning one's freedom of traveling based on some social profile, or digital passes that would be attained solely to proof of vaccination and whatever and charging stations working on the same principles.
I love what Nayib Bukele is doing with "Bitcoin money" though. He's building a pet hospital and schools and probably if the no.1 crypto by market capitalization will appreciate even more he's further develop the country with these funds. I'm not saying Eric Adams is a liar, I just don't like after election speeches that much.
One thing is clear though, Bitcoin is gaining traction at state level. Politicians like mayor Suarez, who will receive his next paycheck in BTC, are showing the way. Bitcoin might not become a world wide used currency, but it will pave the way for others that will act as such.

Money lessons
There are so many lessons I wish I knew about money and which anyone had told me sooner, I would drop them and I hope it helps someone with their money journey.
**TRACK EXPENSES**
I wish I knew I needed to track my expenses so I know if I was living above my means.I spent money as it comes, impulse buying, getting things I didn't have use for because everyone was getting it. Maybe because it wasn't my hard-earned money I didn't care as much but If I had known I am sure I would have spent wisely by tracking my expenses.
Now monthly I check my account statement and categorize my spending and earnings like things I didn't need to buy-impulse buying, and ensure I do better the next month and for items I paid for in cash I use an expense tracking app on my phone
Invest
You have to do more than just save your money, I wish I knew how to invest or what it was, sincerely I am still struggling with investing because in my head I have to earn enough first before I invest and besides when it is hard to save investment is totally out of the picture but that shouldn't be the case.
Apart from invest in other businesses, you can still invest in cryptocurrencies. There are lots of cryptocurrencies in the world and is being accepted globally.
**BUDGETING AND SAVINGS**
I use to tell myself I wasn't a budgeting kind of person. Hahaha, I lied to myself. Finding a way to budget is important sometimes I even set my budget down before I get the money so when it arrives I know exactly what it is going for rather than buying as I go.
Budgeting would also determine the amount that can be saved at least now you know how much is for what, so saving would be easy, not the saving you would easily run to withdraw after a few days but deliberate saving.
I also wish I knew that It was ok to say No to people most times, we don't have to impress anyone with our money because when the money is gone, there will be no one to pick us up most times except yourself
You do not know everyone's pocket financially they could be broke and just being bankrolled by someone, so no need for comparison and trying to fit in with the little you are building.
4 **SIDE HUSTLE**
Having multiple streams of income, because one may fail you. Let's not settle for one job or means of income, turn a hobby to cash or even try out passive means of income meaning ways to make money while you sleep.
There are so many ways to make extra income online, I have been making so much research I found some ways that I am venturing Into and how I wish I started earlier, well better late than never right!!
These points may be things we already know but if we don't Implement them now, over time you will end up seeing them like life lessons too.
Thanks for passing by ☺️
Busy Saturday
Some people said Saturdays are for cleaning or doing house chores, while some say Saturdays are for hangout but as for me Saturdays are for many things. I can decide to clean all day or just sit at home doing nothing. On a very good day, I don't like waking up early on Saturdays, I love sleeping till am tired because the only day I have to myself is Saturday and I like using it well.
I was enjoying my sleep when a friend of mine called me, I reluctantly picked the call and all he could say is happy birthday 😂🤣, yeah Friday was my birthday and he forgot to wish me happy birthday on Friday and decide to call me very early on Saturday. After the call, I found it had to go back to sleep so I decided to check somethings on the social media. I waited till everyway was bright and I did some cleaning and washing. I also had an appointment with a friend to go to the market and change the cloth she bought for me as a birthday gift. I had to change it because the cloth was smaller and I couldn't fit into it though I was happy I had a birthday gift from her. I got a lots of birthday present on that day.
She called me at 11:30am to meet her up, when we both go to the market, then I noticed it was a market day. During market days you see things at a cheaper rate and you also get to see more things to buy, but that doesn't mean you can't buy things on a normal day. I was confused on what to swap my gown with since there were lots of gowns there. I decide to swap it with a trousers since I love them so much. I also went to the ATM stand to withdraw money which I didn't waste time there. I used the opportunity of going to the market with my friend to buy many things I needed for my house and I decided to buy what I will use to cook Stew too. I really explore the whole market, I bought a lot of things. When I got home, it was already 3:47pm, I never realized I spent enough time at the market.
I was very tired but I still have to cook, so I started cooking. I had to boil my meat, fry the fish and at the end, the Stew was ready. You know I can't just eat only Stew 🤣🤣, I had to boil rice and finally my food was ready for me to eat. After eating, I had to bath and I rested. It was really a busy day for me, I hope my next Saturday won't be this busy 😃😂

The most important thing I love taking along with me.
Well I find this topic very interesting to me. My phone is the most important thing I carry with me any where I go the reason is because I might have an emergency call at anytime. I don't like the fact that when I leave my phone at home, I come back to see a missed call and I wasn't there to get the call. Most times I won't have airtime to even call back and I wouldn't know how important the call was. So I will rather take my phone anywhere I go. Apart from missed calls, I just like being with my phone because I love going to the internet, I like finding out what's going on in my country and the country at large. Anytime I am not with my phone I feel something part of me is missing.
Another important thing I don't miss carrying along with me is my handbag😂😂 like they say " ladies and their wahala". My hand bag is my second friend because most things that I take along with me, I like putting them in my hand bang, I don't like filling my hands with things it's more like am carrying a heavy load that's why I use my handbag which make things a lot more easier. If you even decide to check my bag you won't see anything more than phone, earphone and I little money in case of an emergency.

Crypto the future
I know everyone reading this is familiar with crypto and you all know how well crypto has changed the lives of many people in the world. I am still learning things about crypto, like they say "learning is a continuous process".
Crypto has been discovered globally and it has really helped people especially those who didn't know how to invest or trade with bitcoin. Crypto was discovered in 2009 with the invention of Bitcoin. After the discovery of Bitcoin, the value has increased in the global market and people can now trade with bitcoin, but when Bitcoin was first introduced, many people never believed in it because then, the rate was low, they also thought it was just another way to extort money from people, they never knew that period was an opportunity for them to invest. Look at what is happening today, bitcoin has taken over the world, everyone is now interested in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, no one wants to be left behind.
Bitcoin is the biggest and the most valued crypto in the market and it's value is increasing on a daily basis. Though there are other cryptocurrencies which also have a great value in the market and many people are trading without delay and also many have benefited from it too.
Bitcoin is the future because it can't be printed out and also many banks have started investing on cryptocurrency and with time, crypto will be used by everyone. I have the feeling that people will start using cryptocurrencies to pay for things at the market or anywhere they purchase goods. With time, hopefully Bitcoin will hit $200k, so if you have not invested, try and do that now before it will be too late.

Here and now (movie time)
I decided to watch nollywood movie with my friend, though I am not a movie frick and if I want to watch a movie it would be Hollywood but since I am with my friend I had to join her in other not to be left out.
It all started with a blind little girl Anthonia who lives with her aunt Ese. She was criticize by her aunt just because she was blind, her aunt even abuse her on different occasions. Anthonia is Ese's elder sister daughter, but she died when Anthonia was just two years old (according to her aunt). Her aunt is not always pleased anything she sees her around, she always wants her to be indoors. Anthonia had requested to go to school for the disabled but was denied the opportunity. She stayed at home doing all the house chores even as a blind girl.
On one very faithful day, Ese's boyfriends came to spend the weekend and he met the little girl, immediately Anthonia bonded well with her aunt's boyfriend which she never wanted her to meet with the boyfriend. Ese's boyfriend spent one night only to find out that she has sleeping paralysis so he broke up with her and left the next day. Ese became angry and she pour out the aggression on the little girl to the extent that she even sent the girl out of her place.
Luckily Anthonia met a young lady at the pack while she was crying and she told the lady her story, she had sympathy on her and then took her to her place where she spent the night. Anthonia decided not to go back to the house saying she won't forgive her aunt while her aunt on the other hand, was looking for her every where. Ese was devastated, she called her mom crying bitterly that she can't find her daughter 😲😲, yeah I mean her daughter, she admitted that Anthonia was her daughter and she lost her sight when she was just few months old. According to her, Anthonia fell from the bed the night she was having her crisis (Sleeping paralysis), her husband left her because of that and she hated the little girl ever since then.
When Anthonia had that her supposed to be aunt is her real Mom and that she was never born blind, she became more angry with Ese and promise never to forgive her. But with time she came to forgive the mother and finally called her mom for the first time. Ese later found out that her illness can also be treated, Ese and her daughter lived happily ever after.
**My advice to everyone.**
Children are gifts from God, on no occasion should you call your child a caused child or any name. Treat your children with respect and love even if the child is not yours, treat them how you will want people to treat your children. Being disabled is not the end of your life, there are still things disabled people can do. Try as much as possible not to criticize people because of their condition. It is very important you treat everyone equal.
How to make a good first impression
Making a good first impression is very important, though It all depends on the individual. Some might want to make a good impression when seeing a person for the first time while some will just feel reluctant to even make a good impression, though first impression is impossible or not enough to reveal one's character, but it's advisable to always creat a good first impression.
***How to create a good first impression.***
There are many ways in which you can create a good first impression which many of us already know.
Be on time
If you are meeting someone for the first time you have to be punctual, try as much as possible to arrive at the event earlier to avoid unnecessary excuses. Coming to the venue at the appropriate time will make the person think highly of you and this will bring more respect and honor to you.
Present yourself appropriately
Presenting yourself doesn't only mean the way you talk but also your physical appearance. Like they say "dress the way you want to be addressed". So always try to dress properly, you have to know the dress code depending on the kind of meeting or occasion.
Be yourself
Making a good first impression doesn't mean you have to pretend to be like someone else or trying to pretend to fit in, all you need to do is just be yourself. being yourself will make you more confident which will make people to trust and respect you.
Be aware of your body language.
When you are meeting someone for the first time, it is normal to be nervous but you don't want your anxiety to show. You should be comfortable and confident. Walk with your chest held high, even if this isn't your natural way of being, you can assume simple poses will increase your confidence.
Always plan ahead by preparing talking points to get across during your meeting, gather feedback from friends and ask questions because the better you make them feel, the more likely they are to have a positive impression about you.
There are many other ways to create a good first impression such as being positive, paying attention while in the meeting, trying not to be distracted by anyone. We have just few seconds or few minutes to create a good first impression and it's almost impossible to change it once it happens.

How to become successful
I have the rolling on my bed thinking of what to write on, then this particular topic came to my mind. At first I asked myself why this topic, why not another? For sure there are lots of perspective to various subject matter but my own perspective might make the famous topic of success Clearer and some may come to understand what success really means.
If you browse out the definition of success on Google, you will see various definitions. Some say success is a fame and triumph, others believe it to be an obsolete outcome, some still believe it to be an attainment or wealth or position of honors. From my own point of view, I believe that success is an achievement or accomplishment. In real sense, success maybe defined as the accomplishment of an aim or purpose. There is a thin line between success and failure.
There is no single right way to be successful. What works for you might not work for the other person. Many people uses wealth as a benchmark to success, some that have attained a level of wealth will call themselves successful but being successful is more than being wealthy or being rich. Research shows that there are two basic things that influence how people think about themselves and their abilities:
The fixed mindset
The growth mindset
People who possess a fixed mindset believe that success isn't as a result of hard work, they believe is a consequence of innate talent. They believe that such talent is something people are either born with or without, those kind of people tends to give up easily in challenges. Those with a growth mindset feels they can grow and learn through great effort. This kind of people believe they can overcome challenges no matter how hard it is. For those with fixed mindset, there are ways in which you can build a growth mindset. This includes; learning new skills, believing that your efforts matters, viewing failure as learning experience and many more. By doing so, you are building yourself in the growth mindset.
Goals to become successful
Personal goals come in every area of life. Imagine if you had a set of amazing goals that could begin today and continuing pursuing until your final days, that will make you feel good especially when the goals are yielding great success. Some of those goals to be put in place include;
Practice mindfulness
Mindfulness is very effective when it is practiced on a daily basis. Things that get load of hype very rarely live up to their expectation. Mindfulness is an exception
Take a class that interest you but irrelevant to your career
Someone who is passionate about creating a better quality of life for himself should learn new things and also feel productive, most times when you focus on your career you tend to forget what truly set your heart on fire, you tends to forget your hobbies you used to pursue before. go out and take classes on things you used to love that has nothing to do with your work.
Pursue Equanimity in yourself
Equanimity is defined as peak calmness and composure, no matter what life is throwing at you, if you can find Equanimity in a very difficult or tough situation, then you can withstand anything that comes your way. The best way to achieve that is to always put yourself in tough situations.
These are just few steps in setting up a way to become successful. Goal setting has the potential to take us to some amazing places in life because of her talent and ambition.

Bitcoin at $200k, how possible is this?
The price of Bitcoin dropped from $66k to $62k. Everyone were actually happy when Bitcoin hit $66k, but it reducing doesn't mean you can't still invest. This is another great opportunity for those that have interest to invest on Bitcoin since no one can predict how high or low it will go.
Many Bitcoin lovers have been predicting that the price of Bitcoin will likely hit $200k or even more in the next 5-10 years but we don't know how true this is, it might even hit $200k before 5 years time you never can tell. Bitcoin getting to $200k will be beneficial to many investors and become a barrier to some people who are not investors or who want to invest but won't be able because of the high price of Bitcoin. As we all know, Bitcoin can not be regulated or valued by any government and it can't be printed out by the government, that is the best part of it.since no one has the ability to freeze, charge or demand your coins, you can invest at anytime but it's advisable you do that now before it hits $200k or before you will regret while others will be enjoying and ripping their profits.
Complications while investing
Bitcoin may have other complications, but as a person before investing, you should know the risk involved. One of the most significant drawback of investing in Bitcoin is the lack of regulatory oversight. Lack of regulation can lead to fraud and scams. There is no way to safe your Bitcoin from human or technology errors, once you mess up your Bitcoin wallet you won't recover it back, so be very careful with the way you handle your wallet.
In conclusion, it is very possible that Bitcoin might hit $200k in the next 5-10 years time, it is advisable you invest while you can now before it is too late for you and with the way things are, Bitcoin is the feature.

Experience of a Corp member in Ondo state.
I once met a guy called Mr Charles who happened to be a Corp member in Ondo state, I was happy because I have always wished to be a Corp member someday after my school. Of course I will like to experience everything others are experiencing during their NYSC (National Youth Service Corp). I decided to met with Mr Charles to tell me his experience during his stay in Ondo state and he told me some amazing stories which I found interesting and funny which I will like to share with you all. But I will start by introducing Mr Charles to you all.
Mr Charles Nkem is from Ikwo Local government of Ebonyi state Nigeria, he is about 5fit tall, he is light in complexion, I find him to be a very funny person, free to associate with people. he was posted to Ondo State Nigeria to serve his fathers land on the 29th of July 2021. During the three weeks orientation course in the national youth service corps (NYSC), Mr Charles had so much fun in the camp. There were lots of activities like match past, Debate competition, Drama and Dance presentation, Mr macho and Mrs Nysc, football and volleyball tournament etc. Every morning, they usually wake up by 4am to make preparation to go to the parade ground which is a norm in the camp in the parade ground, that's where the Nigeria force men train the corpers on how to match and military parade too.
By 7am, all the corp members will go to the kitchen with their meal ticket to take their break fast, when they finish eating breakfast they will go for lecture at the auditorium, according to him, the lecture is always boring. He expressed himself that camp is so tiring but also fun on the other hand. He told me how he chased girls as part of having fun which am not surprised because most guys chase girls, I have hard couple of times where Corp members get married to themselves.
Charles had never wanted to serve in ondo state, he wanted to go to another state but to do that you will have to issue a medical report to do redeployment. Charles went ahead to forge medical report saying he is an ashmatic patient in other for the Nysc staff to redeploy him. But before they will redeploy you, you will have to meet with the Doctors for a brief oral talk about your medical report you submitted to camp officials. When they asked Mr Charles how they carried out the test (asthma), he said he doesn't know how they carried out the test that he was unconscious when they carried out the test🤣🤣🤣, but how can you be unconscious?🤦🤦.
They told him to bring the drugs and inhaler he has been using to manage himself which he did, then he was asked how asthmatic patient use inhaler, the answer he gave made me laugh. According to him "Charles said he uses the inhaler through his noise" everybody were laughing at him. The Doctor ask him again if he was sure of what he was saying and he said yes. Then they ask him to go, when he got to the camp hostel, he then asked his closest friend how asthmatic patients uses inhaler and his friend told him it's through the mouth and they all begin to laugh at him. This made Mr Charles redeployment/relocation cancelled.
I enjoyed every part of the story he told me and I hope others will learn lesson from forging a medical report.

My Experience in cryptocurrency
Learning about cryptocurrencies has been a great opportunity to me though when I first found about about cryptocurrency which is Bitcoin in the year 2014-2015 I thought it was another way to scam people or another way to make people invest in what they won't profit from. I friend of mine told me on social media about Bitcoin, he even told me I could buy in cheaper rate and with time I will be the one to enjoy it, but I didn't believe anything he said infact I thought he wanted to dupe me. How I wish I had the knowledge about cryptocurrency and how it's going to be in the feature, I would have invested. This is what we call ignorance but what can I do since I haven't done something like that before.
Cryptocurrencies have taken a good turn in the market industry, knowing the fact that Bitcoin is now a boom in the market makes me happy, but on the other hand, it makes me regret more on not investing when I was told to do so though it's never too late to invest in a cryptocurrency since there are other crypto you can invest in, just that we don't know or we can't predict how fast they will grow in the market.
Which coin have I invested in.
Since I got to know about cryptocurrencies and their value and also with the help of my friend who has invested on so many cryptocurrency, I have been able to invest in some of the coins such as SafeMars, SafeStar, SafeBTC and MoonDoa. I was also introduced to Noise cash where I get to make a post and comment on people post to get a tip in form of BCH which is bitcoincash. I was also introduced to Hive platform where I get to also write a post and I get rewarded in different cryptocurrencies. I am also happy I joined read cash and I know with time I will grow my account and be able to write better articles.
Investing in cryptocurrencies has really helped me in many ways. At least I can say I am dependent on myself in some ways, I can pay my bills without the help of anyone and I thank crypto for that.
What I plan to do with the knowledge of cryptocurrency
There are lots of things I plan to do with this little knowledge I have acquired from cryptocurrency depending on the one I am working with. If possible I will like to invest in all crypto since we can't predict the one that will boom in the market but not to be greedy, I hope to use the knowledge wisely and also affect people in a good way. You can mine cryptocurrencies which we all know that mining generates revenue and helps to validate the transaction that are carried out on blockchain.

What makes me happy
There are lots of things that makes me very happy, I can't even list them all if I say I want to start. But I know being with my family makes me happy not just being with them but spending quality time with them. Anytime I speak with my mummy on phone, I feel so relaxed though I haven't seen her for the past 6 years. I know you will wonder why I have not seen my mum for that long, is because she traveled to a very distance place though it's not an excuse for me not to make out time to see her, but am working towards that. Talking with her gladdens my heart and I make sure we always communicate everyday.
Some people say laughing everyday is better than money. It is very good to laugh but money still makes me happy. No body here will deny the fact that he/she likes money, it's a good thing to have money and it's also better when you know how to spend it. I am not disputing the fact that money conquers happiness but truth be told, money can solve 80% of what laughter can't do.
Another thing is being able to help someone or being able to solve someone's problems. I won't say I am good at solving people's problem but I try my possible best to help someone if am in the position to do so and it makes me happy anytime I render help to someone.
What is that thing that makes you so happy? I will like you to share some of your happy moments with me.

My first post on read cash.
Hello everyone, I am Otuya Nancy, I am from Delta state, Nigeria but I base in Lagos State with my family. I attended Universal Basic Education in lagos where I got my primary school certificate. My secondary school was Divinity Comprehensive college also in Lagos, growing up with my family wasn't an easy one for my mummy because am not the only one she had to take care of, I still have siblings. I had limited friends while I was in secondary school, though I am always a shy type when it comes to making friends.lol
I graduated from Fidei polytechnic Gboko in Benue state where I got my National Diploma in Science Laboratory Technology. Despite the fact that things wasn't that easy on us, I still decided to further my education at the University which am currently studying to become a microbiologist in Ambrose Alli University Ekpom, Edo state.
Things I love doing
I love engaging myself in different things like reading and writing though i wouldn't say that I am a good writer but with time I will blend in. I also love dancing, I remember when I was younger I and my little sister will go to a birthday party and I will make sure I win a present before going back home, this is to tell you how much I love dancing. Lol, I also like to sing especially when i am taking my bath, just imagine that voice in the bathroom 🤔🤔, i almost forgot to tell you that I also like cooking, infact cooking is one of the things I enjoy doing no matter where I am.
