We sometimes make the statement “I don’t care what people say about me” and the likes but is that true? I myself have said that often and even did a post on it. There’s no doubt that saying such helps and is liberating, it actually did help me. However, the truth is we care about what people say. Let’s admit it. What we actually do is we try as much as possible to not make what people think about us matter or get to us.
Every morning on my way to work, I see how some people drive on the streets and most times I’m like, if I drive, I will just be slowing down anyhow and I might just cause an accident. Even before I reached the age of driving, I’ve always been scared of driving. It’s amazing how people could manoeuvre through tight corners
“YOLO!”
“It’s my life”

“Do you!”
These are statements we make that in fact are not harmful. They sometimes help you become brave when you have thoughts about what people might think of you and so on. However, some people use YOLO as an excuse to live carelessly and recklessly. They make decisions that are selfish and unwise.
Welcome y’all to 2018. For some reasons, I have a good feeling about this new year. I know, that’s how I’ve been having good feelings about previous years but this year is going to be filled with so much growth, I just know it.
First of, I want to apologize for the MIA. I can come up with excuses but I’ll spare y’all all that. This year, I plan to be more organized. Easier said than done right? Anyway,

Hello everyone. How’s your day going?
First of all, I want to thank you all for still sticking around and to my new followers, welcome, please feel at home.
So lately, I have been processing things, I have been figuring things out for myself
“Common 50 naira”
“Is it not common 15 naira pen?”
“Just to go to market you cannot go”
“Is it because I borrowed your jacket I won’t hear word”
“Just because of a book you are disturbing my life”
I’m sure all these must sound familiar. People say these things because they feel it is “just this or that” or it is “common”.
Yes, I know, it’s been a while, well, I’m back. Who missed me? Lol. Welcome all new followers and to the old ones, thank you for still sticking with me. Anyway, today, I’ll be writing on opinions. Before I go further, last week Thursday was my graduation. It went well and I was happy I’m finally done with that phase of life, now I’m off to greater heights. The next stage is the 7 months training I am to do, before I do my internship. I really can’t wait to be done and get my license.
