Character development

-

 I’ve been so wrapped up in my own emotions or pretty much so wrapped up in my efforts to stop feeling that I pretty much shut everything off for the last month or so. I know I’m doing it again because I haven’t been able to write anything on here and I don’t even know if this will be the first to make it out of the drafts.

 You know how in books or movie they'll throw in a crazy plot twist or a tragedy or a betrayal just so that the main character can learn something, become someone, and have their moment? or that point in the bad guy's life where they decide that the course, they are taking is villainhood?? I think they call it a villain arc?? whatever you may wanna call it I’m just simply going through it. I keep saying, that my life is a low budget horror film, and I’m the main character in this franchise surviving every single time. and in any other case I’d be happy to "overcome" but what doesn’t kill you leaves you with trauma and in turn therapists bills (and the occasional money blown on trivial things).

in the last 3 month I; 

1. got a tattoo

2. got my poetry in an exhibition

3. got a boyfriend

4. broke up with said boyfriend

5. felt like an outsider 

6. got a new boy obsession

7. got over said obsession

8. embarrassed myself

9. embarrassed myself again

10. found out said ex was cheating

11. made up with an old friend

12. lost contact with a friend

13. embarrassed me again

14. increased my alcohol tolerance 

15. started school

16. realised people were staring at my tattoos. side note here; you can’t pray these tattoos off from my body and yes, I’m aware I’m going to hell. and yes, my parents are okay with them. and yes, I am getting another 

17. I’m enjoying school???? weird

Look, this list could go on forever. it’s easier to do this than to explain in detail how I’ve been doing. I’ve just been doing. literally nothing else. so, if by any chance you think I’m being weird, I probably am. its character development or I’m just entering my villain era. 

I genuinely have no idea what I’m doing, I feel like I’m strapped into a chair in the cock pit and I’m being told to save the plane. I can’t even drive, what more a plane? there’s so much more I want to say, but I’ll say it better when I’m done transforming into whatever or whomever I’m going to be next. 

Signed,

A little lost girlie.

    🥺Damn! You can write 🔥. Everytime I read your blogs, I always relate. It’s like you’ve opened my heart and took out everything I’ve been meaning to say but can’t.

    I’m glad to say I always look forward to reading more of what goes on in your mind. You know when you realise that you aren’t alone in this messy life thingy. That we all trying it despite the things it throws at us. We don’t have much of a choice anyway, but thank you for being bold enough to share all these🤞. I might not comment on every blog, but every chance I get to read and go through them I’m impressed. I personally appreciate. And let’s continue giving this “life thingy” a chance, maybe, and just maybe, it will make sense some day.

    Benga, you fly a plane, you don't drive it 👀😂😂😋
    Sounds like quite the metamorphosis you're going through. Don't forget to meditate with all this going on

It's called Privilege and you have it

  Let's talk about privilege. Before we get into the nitty gritty of this topic we must first establish that I've had a light addiction to Big Brother since 2020. it waxes and wanes depending on how busy i am but an obsession regardless. Now you're probably thinking "What's that got to do with privilege?" well patience. it will all make sense in a bit. and yes i know, it is a bit wild for me to come back here and pretend i haven't been gone for at least 9 months now.... that i can't explain. at least not now.  Now for context i must let you know how i found myself thinking about Privilege. In line with my usual obsession, I'm currently watching big brother and today the topic of struggle came up. Someone did not like being associated with their money or people thinking that because they had money they did not struggle. Valid. but it also got me thinking. No one ever said that they didn't struggle. and that right there is what got me thinking ab...

Planting trees

 This is probably the part where i explain why i stopped writting on here consistently.... Unfortunately today is not that day.  You know how when you are planting crops, depending on what it is it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to see those little seedlings? And even then its sometimes about 6 months until you reap the rewards and enjoy the fruits of your labour? And trees, think about how a peach tree take even longer to reach maturity? yes now that we have that picture in mind. Think about your life, do you see where i am going with this?  I partly believe in astrology and numerology( i can feel you roll your eyes, keep reading theres a point to this); in astrology theres 12 houses, all with house planets and all that jazz, thats not where i am. What i am getting at is that the 12th house, often signifies endings, closing of chapters e.t.c and 1st houses as you can already guess are about beginings, newness. In numerology, your personal year number is...

The one where the universe screams at you

-
 Often enough, the universe whispers to us warnings, subtly as if trying not to let the people in the room with you know and then out of nowhere if you don't listen it stands in your face and screams. A lot of us never listen to the whispers, infact we ignore the whispers completely. We ignore that friend who centers men in every action until they ditch you in unsafe places for men. We ignore the whispers that tell you, you do not count in their lives as much as they do in yours until the universe forces them to pick their real ones and you don't fit the bill.  I think we ignore warnings because humans are hard wired to want to be the exception. The one it could never happen to so we go into situations that we know don't have a positive out come just for the chance to say it didn't happen to me. To feel like you're different. Truth is, we are not that different, In fact you'd find that we are more similar than we are different. It could definitely happen to you,...
