Hi everyone... I know it’s been a while. How have you been? I hope you’ve been keeping safe and sane. It’s been an interesting few months hasn’t it? Lol. Okay so, this is my last post on The Wawa New Yorker... After 5 years, it’s finally time for a transition. I have started a new project, which I am about to tell you about. But I didn’t want to pack up shop here, without leaving you all, with one last post: Have you ever wondered “how did I get here?” And not in a good way. This was me, December 2019, sitting in a little conference … [Read more...]
Memories and Salt
Happy Tuesday! I hope all is well. Okay so, I couldn’t think of what to put out today. There’s a lot going on in the world: from Banky W's announcement to run for public office in Nigeria to Stan Lee’s passing, I couldn’t really decide. For inspiration I went to my favorite author (Paulo Coelho)'s blog and stumble on the following story. I know someone who cannot stand salt, why do I feel this would validate said craze?

Life Explained
Hello everyone, I hope all is well. I stumbled on this short story by my favorite author (Paulo Coelho) and decided to share... Enjoy. _____________________________________________________________________________ On the first day God created the dog. God said, “Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years.” The dog said, “That’s too long to be barking. Give me ten years and I’ll give you back the other ten.” So God agreed. On the second day God created the … [Read more...]
100!
Happy August 2017 My Darlings! How have you all been? I trust you've been making the most out of life.? Okay so, when it dawned on me that the next post I put out would be my 100th blog post, it boggled my mind! I wanted to make it count so I didn't put out just anything. After asking friends and family for advice and coming up with nothing that stuck, I prayed to God to give me a story worthwhile.... My God is real because Mehn did He come through for His baby girl! Early 2014, one of the managers at my last job then called me a glorified secretary. … [Read more...]
