what a day!

today is the 5th day of august, i'm here at ile-ife, in my room. guess what just happened, my laptop fell about a height of 40 to 50cm. I was just so excited that i was going to type this and then i pulled out the laptop pouch from the bag and then, it slipped out. I was quiet....couldnt say anything but aaaaahh silently. it has just happened , my thought running all around and then, i decided to pick it up, saw the battery trying to pull free off the PC but was stuck somehow. I prayed a little prayer, Lord, take charge and then, i put it on, Hmm, the surprise was that nothing happenned to the screen though it fell on the ground on the screen part. I had to drop it lie flat on the floor and say "Thank you". This is just the first part of my story cos it just happened some mins ago(this is 14mins to 6pm). had a great day, asked God for the forgiveness of my sins, had a word from the OPEN HEAVENS and then started up the day, did the normal stuff- wash plates(sorry, it might not be normal sha) we had used the previous night(s). never mind, the S is there because i refused to wash the plates and just kept them till another morning. i then went to read at the reading room, PG Hall(was able to read some stuffs on my project0 and then, went to help folake with the socket thing(still need to find screws or else i'll have to keep doing the thing and i might just endanger her to electrical shocks. It was like a slow day as i went to have my bath at past 12 after ironing a shirt i did not use courtesy the rain that did not allow my inner wears dry up. Went out to the departmental building after this and you know, i was indeed late, the only man(my supervisor) that made me come out was leaving. i decided to carry his bag with hime to his car and then we talked a bit and then he told me to start working on my Literature review that it will help me get started as i'll only need editings to do later on. Yes Sir!

hmm. i walked back not feeling bad but having the next idea of what to do as i had only been working on Chapter 1. Let go! saw mimi at the PG hall, gave her Teejay's convocation book and then, guess who i saw? a former classmate of mine from Badore. Rasheed Gbadamosi. he came to see a lecturer who then sent him to deliver a sweater to a student in PG hall. Hmm. hugged him and then we talked a while. i showed him the room and off i went to give yemisi her cello-tape. omo, no be only cello-tape i go give at last o. as i sit-down for there dey gist on and on. yes, we talked and talked for over 1 hour and i then took my leave. hmm, the girl with the scales on the middle sides of her eyes. Miss hezekiah oluwasanmi(Library lady, she loves to read), funny enough, i no dey go that library.

hmm, like i need to drop this typing. hope you got some of my day.

The Hyrox

We call it the bootcamp. For today, the activity is called the Hyrox.  As I type, I am yet to check the dictionary for the meaning of the word 'hyrox' to verify if it even exists. I think it should anyway. FYI- I will check after I finish scribbling.  In the picture above are my colleagues at Leaseweb. We had just gone through 35 minutes of some gruesome exercise. They appeared to be simple and light but as you had to do it repetitively, they become tasking and the pain keeps on coming. We do this once a week to encourage people to keep fit or rather create an avenue to exercise despite the bussle of the week. Focus today as on 6 activities and we had to do it in multiple rounds. You can fid the list below: 1. 1km run on the treadmill 2. Burpees  3. Row/Ski 4. Lunges 5. Sit ups  6. Farmer's Carry 7. 1km run on the treadmill. It is good the Coach was unable to spell my name correctly so I am unable to claim a position. But to make it easy for you, I did the least numb...

An Open Letter to Kunfaiyeoluwa

  I would love to draft a long letter to you. But the thoughts and words captured above say a lot that I want you to carry on for the rest of your life.  You indeed have a legacy to cherish and to build on. Your mum, grand-mums and great-grand-mums are one of the strongest and determined persons I have met and I know the seed lives on in you. Yes, I did come to know them all and I see the foundation you have to lean on. You are Royalty both Spiritually and by Land Origin. 1 Pet 2:9 reminds me of your spiritual royalty and the knowledge that you are of the origin of men who have reigned as Kings in Nigeria both in Kogi and Ondo States. Therefore, let the words scribed above by the Queen of the Southern Nigerian Kingdom bring light to you today and for every other day. I was watching a movie during the past weekend and it showcased a Father who stood by his daughter even when the whole community were against her. I would like you to know that I would be by your side from Day 1 t...

Dam tot Dam 2.0 in 2025

  Ran the 2025 Dam tot Dam loop again in 2025. The Night Run. I did this in 2024 and documented here . This time around, I went in for the fun and thrill. You can imagine that I did not practice as I did the last time. "I had done it a year ago, I must be able to do it again" was my mindset. Never mind that I had added about 3-5kg in weight. I was unbothered and so sure it would be done. Last, Last as we say in pidgin English, " I go waka am " which simply means that I would walk all the way. But I did not have to. In fact, I made it in an earlier time compared to the previous year. I made two phone calls during the run to show how i was just in the mood to enjoy it.  Now that I think of making a better time than the previous year. I consider that I must have been slow in 2024. what improved? I do not know.  I was having a conversation with some colleagues some days ago and they were asking for my running plans for the year 2026. I simply said another 8km. But they...
