To my dearest 22

Dearest 22,
I have waited two decades  to meet you and all i can say is that I  can't wait to  live  life with you by my side.My time with you will be short and what lies in store for us only God knows, but either way  am happy to begin life with a new start  this year...am hoping that i will learn more from you than i did with 21.She was a close friend and we went through a lot together.My intention for writing this isnt't  to make you feel jealous, but  i hope and pray that  you will be as  exciting as my sweetheart 21 was.The beauty of  meeting you today is that everything about you is still a mystery to me.
I get excited knowing that i have new adventures waiting for me and that i have another year full of endless possibilities.I want to play my cards right with you, and so i will start by giving you a  sneak preview of the plans i have  in store for us and i can only pray that all will go according to plan.So where do i start?? I always  begin with God and all i can tell you is that i want you to  always keep me close to the One who made me and you owe Him that much because he brought us together.The next thing on my list is introducing you to my  family, they mean more to me than anything in this world so it's only fair that they get to know you...this year i want to be a  better sister, daughter,aunt and friend.It's not easy being away from them at times, but whatever the case, help me to appreciate and love this earthly heaven of mine i call family.Soon there will be new faces to meet and new places to explore, so help me through this and keep me sane through it all.Next on my list is school, not a favourite topic for most(you can ask 21) but my dearest 22 you are one special girl!Spending my last year at university with you counts for something special,so don't take it as a challenge because no matter what happens we will get through those books together and finish with a bang!( this is me trying to get you psyched up).It must be fate that i met you on the first day of my end year exams .
This is is turning into one long letter and i still have a lot to say!The words i may write may seem meaningless right now, but  dearest 22  all i want you to know is that each day with you will be unique and every day by your side will be  a step closer to achieving my dreams.They are big dreams and that's probably the only thing that should get you scared( and excited) .Even though life might make you regret why you are with me,please remember  that nothing is ever a bed of roses..and it all comes down to how much you learn and turn those lessons into milestones in this journey called life.I love you very much and am happy and blessed to be with my dearest 22!!

The Man That Made Me Believe In Impossibilities

How do I write about a man whose loud presence can’t be ignored? How do I begin to describe a man whose life should be written down in volumes of books, a man whose battles and achievements could literally make you wonder why you have never tried out that daredevil in you? A man whose blind faith and roaring spirit will leave you believing that anything is possible, as long as you just do it! I have never written down anything much about my father, mostly because words won’t do him justice and because you need to experience him to actually know who he is. He is tough, he is loud, he is sharp and witty, he never gives up and he is simply my papa. I know I will never get it right when it comes to the adjectives that could describe papa, mostly because he is more than words. He’s the man who’s taught me to live in the moment, because we can’t really trust the future. A man who’s taught me to be witty, because sometimes you have to outdo the book smarts to survive. A man who’s ta...

The good,the bad the ugly…the beautiful years of my life!

Happy new year!!!Two weeks down the line, and I still can’t predict how my 2013 will go down. I bet that’s the exciting part about new years( except from the annoying fact that I still   keep writing down the dates as 2012). Took me a while to write my first 2013 post,mostly cause I   had a cliché   idea of writing something about fresh starts,but I won’t take that turn.New year means a lot of things not just new beginnings, it’s also about rolling with the days as they come even when everything seems to stay the same, year in year out. Above all I can’t deny the fact that am alive, who knows what could have happened and nothing makes my heart more grateful   to my God for that blessing. So my first post this year is a lyrical piece written and   dedicated to my 2012 memories and 2013 ‘s unpredictable events. Two decades,that’s how long    I waited for you… If I could wait this long,then what could   possibly go wrong? I knew so...

Start Acting, Stop Typing

June, how I've waited for you! 23 days down with  30 minutes to spew out my thoughts to the world. Here we go... I never like to talk about my life in here, instead I only add the bits I feel would implicate me less in this era of  'hey guys, welcome to my channel'. As much as I want to keep things mysterious to spice up my online persona, I feel like a lot can go wrong with an audience that hides behind screens. I would rather take my chances on being as evasive as possible. Yes, I'm admitting  to my cowardice.  However, I will defend my stance by saying that whatever thoughts I type in here, are rarely inspired by my own life. Rather, they have everything to do with how I perceive the world (people/places/things/ANYTHING)  around me. That's the inspiration. What I hide  is under lock and key in  a mind vault labelled "PRIVATE, for Yvette's crazy thoughts only". The world around me and how I would like to change it through the words I share is wh...
