15 Days for the Young, Rich and Restless Pockets (Merry Christmas-Happy Holidays)




So it’s Christmas time again! That time of the year when all our pockets are young, rich and restless. Yes very annoyingly restless. You know that bad urge to just indulge? The feeling that you just want to pick your neighbors cow by the tail and make it run all the way to the river and back then pay your neighbor a fat cheque for miss handling his cow? Yes! With a big big big fat cheque that you assumedly know they have never touched leave alone owning…That’s the feeling which is very mutual! 

All the same; we all try to be smart during christmas seasons by making a few payments here and there before we go for our holiday. But honestly at times we just have to give up trying. Have you ever done something so stupid that you can’t wait to do it again? Yes me too. That’s what most of us do in December. We forget the landlord and all the bills and decide…. You know what, it just happens once in a year! Now, a person born the other day you should know that December and January has never 'agreed' since the time of our fore fathers. So as stupid as you are acting right now by buying everything on the shelves, enjoy it to the fullest as this will only last for a maximum of 15 days and then reality jets in from abroad come January! Now just before you think I am a professor when it comes to Christmas Management let me say I am not. I am one of the many fellows that know the reality of December and January especially when they follow each-other that badly.  Every single year, I promise myself to be a bit wiser about my restless pocket.. but I have failed many times that I actually had to device my way out.

It’s only a fool that will do the same thing over and over again and still expect the same results. So when it comes to the magical 15 days. I discovered the secret.  The secret is very simple, join the celebrations, travel the miles and have much mad fun.  My friend! not just normal fun… serious fun that you can balance your bank deficit when January knocks. The fun you say all the same it was stupid yet worth it! Now that’s not the main secret, the main secret is to make sure your boss approves this kind of fun too.  Yes! Your boss! Poor you if your boss is the kind that you all want to wet his sit so that when he sits down he says …oops!! Then you all bust laughing upon looking at his behind! Now I am a lucky one! My boss is an angel he has actually approved my madness so he has approved 15 days too. So the secret is ensuring that you are on leave the whole of January with a stocked fridge and less Movement! If you cannot afford this, please review your stupidity when it comes to these 15 days!

Dirty? Why not Just Clean it?

Gross? Not sure. It depends on how you look at it. But nevertheless chances are you are right. I had bought the cup anyway, so I had to try it. It felt like a first day of bikini waxing. A little awkward but then still curious enough to just want to go on. I believe in the menstrual cup, but let’s just say I will need some time to get used to it. So I went back to my tampons for a while. This time round I changed my brand from OB to Cotton. Believe me I am not the kind that promotes products. Unless it’s so irresistible. I found out that the Cottons tampons are only made from 100% natural cotton. Cottons tampons are also hypo-allergenic and biodegradable. Wish I had discovered this a little earlier. Nevertheless, now I know. So, I had to share the good news with someone. Who best fits than someone who has been forced to stick with you for more than 8 hours a day by a simple pay check? So I pull out a small well packed tampon box to show her. It did not bother me that I had some

Red Love Day

Valentine day, what is it? … mmmh … makes the two of us. I have been looking for the real meaning to it. All I have grasped over the past few years is that the day is red in color and it is celebrated by lovers. So I choose to call it a ‘Red Love day.’ There is an immeasurable distance between Love and Red Love; Life's greatest tragedy is that we get old too soon and never get to differentiate the two. But think again, they say it’s never too late to get back on track. Well, I do agree. But I choose to think it may depend on what took you off the track.... (Imagine the case of a fatal Accident; I can ass ure you chances are that you may never get back on track.) . But all the same don't we have survivors of such! In a few days time ‘Red Love day’ will be here with us and not to mention lots of expectations from lovers .The roses, candle lit dinner, chocolates …the very inevitable will be the Heart-Breaks. Consciously or unconsciously.... many of us have plans ready on how to m

NOT NOW...

[Photo Coutesy of Google.] So it is 5 th June, it’s summerish in New York I thin k. We touch down at JFK at 6:55am or about local time. Never mind I still call it JKIA every so often because that’s where I frequent most. I am excited and anxious at the same time. It’s been a 15hour flight and to be so sincere , I can’t feel my big toe. I just want to get out of this freaking big plane and breathe some fresh air. So I walk past the flight attendant at the exit door and in a small scared coarse voice I whisper to myself, “Welcome to America Village Girl.” I then walk behind this particular lady whom from a distance seems to be nice. She was seated across my wing in the flight, between a black old lady and a Mzungu guy. Everybody is walking very fast. Why on earth do people walk that fast after alighting from a plane? Let’s just assume most of them have connecting flights and the rest of us are just scared of being left behind. Deep within, I am sure this lady is going to help
