I have always been moved by words, words from older and more experienced people. I have always believed that one doesn't necessarily have to go through life to learn from life. Most things I have learnt and still learning from life comes from books about other people’s journey through life. They are not quantifiable, but these are some of the words I want to appreciate today.

  1. Drink Life, Live each moment with passion – Wei Chen, Broadcaster
  2. It is unbelievable how quickly we can be gone, so don’t sweat the small stuff. They are small stuffs. – Terri Clark, Singer
  3. We are here for such a short time ,we owe it to ourselves to make the best of it- Maeve Binchy, Author
  4. We are not supposed to be one thing. as opposed to that, we are supposed to be in balance- Gloria Steinem, Author
  5. Harmony comes from clear priorities- Jean Vanier, Humanitarian
  6. We have to take charge of own lives, we are not made successful by a magic wand waving- Maeve Binchy, Author
  7. Happy is a much overrated word. There’s something called serenity and just this place of contentment, and I’d much rather be there- Jann Arden, Singer/Songwriter.
  8. Say what you mean and hopefully everything will work out- Michele Lee, Actress
  9. Pure pragmatism destroys you- Henry Kissinger, Diplomat.
  10. If you can’t be good, be as good as you can be- Kim Stockwood, Singer.

Things I like about Rauf 'Ogbeni' Aregbesola--- amognst others

Recently I went to Osun state and the highlight of my days in Osun State was seeing the Governor Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola with family and then actually talking to the first lady of Osun State Mrs Sherifat Aregbesola. If you ask 10 people that hail from Osun State but reside in Lagos about Ogbeni, they would probably turn their nose and say ‘that one na governor?’ “he does nothing but make unnecessary noise and moves”. I use to subscribe to these notions. I literary still made snaky comments about him changing Osun State to the State of Osun (I need to ask him about that) days before going to Osun. But on seeing him and listening to the people that actually live in Osun State, I am beginning to understand his intentions and I am partially starting to like him and what he is about.  I had to whoop out my phone real quick. it was a fan girl moment! Ogbeni as he is popularly called is described as a puzzle based on his nature and outlook towards certain issues that doesn’t...

How to Create a Resume Template using Powerpoint

Being unemployed sucks and sometimes there is only so much you can do about it, especially here in Nigeria. That ‘so much’ is another post for another day. One of the things you can do about it is to have a killer resume template to help ease making a large and specific batch of resume. I think we are way past the age of using Microsoft word to create resumes and we are gradually moving to making our resumes stand out by using the PowerPoint application and Photoshop as well.    In order to use PowerPoint to create your resume, you will need to;   Open your PowerPoint application on you PC   Change your ‘slide orientation’ from landscape to portrait under the ‘Design’ tab Insert a rectangular shape from the ‘drawing’ section under ‘Home’ tab (place/draw that at the very top of the slide).Double click on the shape to edit, shape fill/shape outline) and resize as needed.    Insert a text box in the center of ...

Slave trade and human trafficking in Libya; the hypocrisy of Nigerians

photo from google Over the past few days the hash-tag Libya, saynotohumantracficking has been trending on social media. If you are not a social media enthusiast, Libya has been in the news for slave trading and human trafficking, specifically of migrants. The CNN report has been successful in drawing attention to migration problems and the issue of slave trade which has been presented not just as a problem in Africa but as a global problem. But I roll my eyes every time I see a new post by a Nigerian politician or Nigerian celebrity. I remember two weeks prior to the big reveal by CNN, a certified blogger ‘DANG’ had already mentioned it in one of her posts and nobody, no Nigerian ‘celebrity’ reacted or reposted this very sensitive issue. If she had posted about a social wedding or concerts, you would have seen reposts on different pages, but slave trading was none of our business. Slave trade/ human trafficking have been around for a long time and a lot of our Afri...
