WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU HAVE A BEE STING

good morning cuties, trust you had a wonderful weekend like i did

On saturday, I was stung by a bee for the first time in my life. A friend of mine hung her shirt in the line and before we knew it bees were everywhere around it so everyone was scared to get closer not to talk of carrying the shirt from the line. When I saw all of them screaming, I was like common bee, y'all are shouting, what if it's a snake?

In my quest for the position of 'HEROINE' I majestically walked down the stairs, went to the line where the shirt was (truth is, I wasn't really scared), stared at the bees, then attempted to remove the shirt, 'BOOM' the whole thing got scattered and started coming after me. I guess I was shocked cause I heard a voice shouting "RUN". I started running but unlunkily for me, your heroine got served - a hot sting(by only one bee). It wasn't really painful, twas just hot, too bad, i didn't know what to do, i had to do a little research so you won't be in my shoes.

This will help you render a home treatment to yourself, a friend or anyone if they get a bee sting, all you have to do is

* Remove the bee stinger ~ this can be done by using your finger nails to scrape out the stinger from the 'sting site'
* wash the site with soap and water for sterilization
* then apply either one of the following

1. Honey
2. Toothpaste ~ I prefer closeup
3. Aloe vera
OR
4. Ice
You might want to take pain reliever as it would reduce the pain.

N/B: It will itch you, don't fall for it cause it will only get worst, if the pain persist after all these then go see a doctor.

have ever been stung by a bee?

THE ANTIDOTE TO SELF DOUBT

I don't know how to write - well ofcos that's what i use to say to myself, i felt ashamed each time I try to sketch out words from my feelings, i did stop writing but know this, the only way to improve is writing.

FORGIVE MY MANNERS, IT'S BEEN A WHILE DEARIES
HOW ARE YOU?
HOW IS THE OUTER WORLD? I GUESS IT'S CRUEL AS ALWAYS BUT WE HAVE TO HOLD ON

During my small little break I learnt something, something I've always known but never practiced, something that works like magic, it's cures self doubt faster than and drugs, if it continuously taken - inasmuch as you need is, don't take overdose, it might develop to a bigger problem.

On one of cassie daves posts on instagram, she talked about her insecurity and asked to share ours, I had to let someone hear my heart cry and so I on the comment section told her, "I love writing but I don't think i can, her reply, is one of the reasons I am typing this today.

oh, no you should totally write if you love writing, I found out that gassing myself makes me feel a lot better..

i started to gas myself and gassing myself has made me realize that I can do better, gassing has been my antidote and I'm pretty sure you can do a lot more if you start gassing yourself instead of beating yourself for your imperfection which is humane.

BONUS TIP
practice gassing everyday, you could talk or write short notes to yourself - who says it can be long, it's your choice anyways.

get in the comment box let's interact
how do you deal with self doubt?
have ever gassed yourself? then how do you do it?

ME LATELY ||| NOT THE USUAL PHIYAH

this Outfit was inspired by cassieDaves - a blogger I admire so much
Outfit: print shirt X plain red skirt on a flat shoe

Lately, life has been throwing different shades at me, the worst part is I can't even explain it, I've been really depressed and  tired, yesterday I couldn't continue, I broke down and almost gave up but then I thought about the reason I started, I'm not the type easily give up, I told myself I'm the best and I can't stop now, I'm not what they say I am, I'm going to work for my own name.

I thought about you guys and couldn't get myself to agree to closing down this blog so here I am again punching my keyboard, I know it's been a while and I'm sorry I did leave but I'm back now.

HOPE YOU GUYS ARE FINE?

Amidst all these things I found a way to be happy, so here is what I've been up to lately

1. CREATING FRIENDSHIP: I didn't have much friends before I came to the hostel but now, I think it's completely the opposite, I don't just have ordinary friends, I've friends that are worth having, friend that have supported me so far in little ways the can and I appreciate that.


shout out to good friends:

 

 This is Rachel - a food and lifestyle blogger, she just started but trust me she's good, she's also an amazing friend, please do check her blog here

 

 This is Dawnslyn - she's not just beautiful, she's everything in one person, I'll simply say she's a perfect friend.

Meet Swizzy - I don't know how she did it but I gat mad love for her, she's an amazing person too, she has definitely been of great help to me and i can't help but appreciate her.

 

 Vera is a perfect friend, she has been supporting and advising me in everything, she's always keeping in touch and encouraging me no matter how far we are. Thank you Vera.

They are not just four - I'll take all your time if I want to introduce you to all my new found love ones so let's skip for now.

2. THRIFTING: I use to be ashamed of thrifting but reading a lot on it, I've come to realize that there's nothing to be ashamed of, Thrifting is now my thing and i can't get enough - especially when I'm with Dawnslyn.

See some clothes I got from thrifting and how good I looked on them

BLOGGING ||| 3 EASY TIPS TO GET YOU A REAL BLOG POST INSTEAD OF A CASUAL POST

Yesterday's outfit styling white camisole on high waist denim pant, a sandal and a check shirt - casual outfit.

Here, I talked about my love for check shirts and how they make me look interesting on casuals.


To me a casual post is a post you make in your head but never get to post them on your blog simply because you forgot them, you don't have enough information about it or you just don't feel it - I lived in this land for a long time until I became tired and had to find my way out.
These are 3 tips to help you travel far from the habit of not sharing your thoughts.

1. Write them: your good thoughts/ideas should be shared with the whole world so as a blogger never go out without your writing materials - personally I hate using the pen and paper but I've a NOTE in my phone where I write every blog post idea. Most times I write my idea in pieces and patch them up later to make a post so don't say they come in pieces, remember you can make a million by saving 10naira each day.

2. Research: don't write this ideas and go to bed, know that no matter how weird or different the topic may be, someone has written on it  so do research, it'll help you patch the pieces and give you more information about the post.

3. Stay motivated: regularly visit other blogs - with same niche as yours this will help you stay motivated and connected with people of the blogosphere.

Have you ever made a good casual post without posting it? If this was you before how did you break free? Is there any tips you know and used that isn't here? Please share with us via the comment box.

LIFE ||| FAKE THINGS FALL OFF

Like I said in this post I've no insecurity, ofcos I know my nails are big but I'm proud I've got them.

i fixed my nails two Saturdays ago and that they are falling off, just nails ooo then let's talk about fake attitude, love, friends, etc. anything fake falls off sooner than expected.

This is dedicated to everyone who have ever thought of going fake for love, likes, respect or anything.

I took my phone, login to my Facebook handle and went straight to blessing's profile, the girl I was madly in love with - no homo, I just admired everything about her, to me she was living the life and I wanted to be like her by all means, whenever I go to her profile I always felt inferior, she had the likes(what almost everyone on Facebook really want), the friends, the love from her friends, her make-up was always on fleek, her clothes were the latest, everything about her I loved. I spent more time on blessing profile than books or anything, so you can imagine I spent most times feeling inferior, bad and asking God why I came from a poor family.
Mama, who is a civil servant and caterer has been the only one training I and my four siblings ever since papa died 12years ago although most times I get help from my uncle(papa elder brother) and my aunt(mama elder sister).
I started using the little pocket money I get to buy clothes and shoes just to look like blessing truth is I was in a secret competition with my crush but each time I upload a picture I don't even look like her neither do I get the likes or the friends, I still felt she was winning... Ahn! ahn! But wait o, where she dey get all these money from? She's not working neither is she a student and boom! it dawned on me! She's either a sex worker or she's dating a rich nigga.So to be like her I would do either of the two, No, sex worker is not an option, mama is a deaconess in the Apostolic church(TAC), I can't imagine what will happen to mama if the church finally get to know.
Dating a rich nigga, yes, my final solution but I don't wanna be control by a man simply because he's giving me stipends and I'll have to be giving him sex in exchange for money and clothes - is what niggas do this days, if you can't satisfy them on bed then they don't see the need of spending on you, having sex now? No, I want to have sex with my husband alone! I want to give him my virginity, I want him to be the first to dig in, I want him to be the first I'd go intimate with - I recall when mama took me she wanted a gift from my future husband.....You know that old tradition that if you marry a virgin you take gift to her parents for training her well? Mama held unto it.
After all the thinking I made one decision which I'm glad I did, I told myself I'm different from that person and I can never be that person.
I am me
I am amazing
I am wonderfully made and won't change for anyone or anything.

Be you no matter what, tell the world it has to adjust to the real you cause fake things fall off sooner just like my nails.

Do have a blessed day.

PERSONAL ||| 5 STRIKING FEATURES DISTINGUISHING ME FROM OTHERS

My favorite color - Yellow top x denim pant

No matter how related we are, we are not the same they must features that separate us from everyone.

1. My beauty: I'm beautiful and I know it, ofcourse everyone is beautiful but mine is exceptional and unique, I mean you don't get bored or tired staring at me *one eye swiftly close* either natural or on makeup I'm still beautiful and it's one of those things that makes me different from others.

2. Ability of accept the worst
I believe life isn't all rainbows and cupcakes but it isn't all rain and darkness either, in as much as we have a good days, we also have the bad day so I've braced myself for those bad things that I don't get shocked when the happen. I just close my eyes, pray to God and then do my own part which is to be positive.

3. Ability to enjoy my own company
So many people find this very difficult but trust me I can't trade my 'me time' for anything in the world, like I love my own company it gives me more time to relax, think, set goals and make blog posts. This doesn't mean I don't hang out or meet friends, I do but I give my self a break from people and concentrate on me.

4. Ability to embrace my imperfections and love myself
I know I'm not perfect but my imperfections make ME. Embrace your imperfections and love yourself you'd realize that life is easy. So far I do not have any insecurity about my body.

5. Ability to read a person's mind
This is inbuild and wasn't learnt, I know what you're thinking but it's not the magical mind reading, oh no! I don't have super power. This is more like understanding and predicting a person based on their body languages + I'm very good at it, don't try me.

How well do you know me, can you tell other unique features I have? What are those features you posses that differs you from every normal person out there? Share with us via the comment box.

PERSONAL ||| SEMESTER SLOGAN X GOAL

My love for crop tops will never die, is not like i've flat tummy o but i just love crop tops and the way it makes me look stylish. if you wanna look more interesting on casual then put on ankara(especially crop top) on denim pant.

I've never had a semester goal or a slogan, this is my first probably because it's my final year and i don't wanna risk it, although I'm not a bookworm, I'm not a failure either - unless i think I am.

I've not really excelled academically as I've always wanted to but this semester will be very different with not just saying but also doing the needful to achieve this one goal and since I'm not dealing with only my books but also this blog, I've created a timetable so neither my blog nor books will suffer from lack of attention.

first the goal then secondly the slogan. 

I've a very simple goal which is to have all distinction this semester - I believe it is easy if i follow these few easy(they can be hard when you practice procrastination) steps:

* Attend all lectures.

* Listen attentively in class although it's hard.

* Read my note immediately after the class.

* Do more research on the topic I am reading.

* Revise the previous not anytime I am reading the next. 

Here is my slogan: PSSP

P= Pray: I love God and I believe I can do nothing without him.

S= Study: faith without work is death so I'd combine both

S= Slay: in as much as I want to focus on my studies I want to also focus on my looks too

P= Pass: i sure will pass after doing the above.

what else do you think I can do to help me with my studies this semester? and what are your goals for the remaining part of the year? share your thoughts with us via the comment box below.

INSPIRATIONAL ||| LIKE YOU

When I first listen to this song I fell in love with it and felt it was for me, i listen to it when I'm sad, happy, sick, tired and anytime. it one of the songs that work for me so i think i should share it too.
here is the lyrics and i hope you love it like I do.

you can also replace the you with I and me where necessary like I did in the lyrics.




I got to get up
I got to get up and make a move
'Cause the world will never see me until I do
No, they don't really care what I'm going through
So I've got to show them, baby
I got to show them the real me
I got to give them what I've got
No, I won't let them see what I'm not

'Cause I am strong, I am wise
 I am worth beyond the thousand reasons why
And I can't be perfect, baby
'Cause nobody's perfect, darling
But, no, no, no, there's nobody in the world like me

What do I do when I can't let go?
What do I say when I just don't know how I feel?
And I know nobody knows how I feel
'Cause everybody's got their own damn problem
So everybody's trying to find their way
And day by day is the struggle
In this world I know I have to hustle
I'll know that I'm not alone
I don't always have to be strong all by myself
I said, it's okay to ask for help

Now listen, people will find me, but they don't define me
And I will find people who'll help redesign me
People will find me, but they don't define me
And I will find people who'll help redesign me
I am a work of art
I know I didn't think I'd come this far
Now here I am

Baby, I am strong, I am wise
I am worth beyond the thousand reasons why
And I can't be perfect, baby
'Cause nobody's perfect darling
But, no, no, no, there's nobody in the world like me

I know I am worth it, 'cause I know that I can't be perfect, baby
'Cause nobody's perfect, darling
I love me just the way that I am
I love me just the way that I am, my love
It's like the stars in the sky, oh, when you look in my eyes


Song by Tatiana Manaois.

Dedicated to every one out there who know that they can't be perfect but still love themselves like that.

PERSONAL ||| ON STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN

 Tuesday outfit, these days I just love spicing up my dressing with a coat, denim jacket or check shirt. it makes me look really cool.

this is me starting all over again, i first launched my personal blog on the 10th October on wordpress but due to some circumstances i had to switch to blogger and transferring my post, mehn it isn't easy so i did copy the ones i could and now this is my first blog post on blogger and after i hit the publish button I'm going to delete the other blog.

I'm glad I didn't give up, it's a new month so happy new month and don't be afraid to start again.

 

BOOKS ||| WHAT I LEARNT FROM 'I WISH I KNEW THIS BEFORE I WAS 14'

Look who is done with a book already... You know that feeling you get when you do a thing you always thought you can't? Yaaaaaaa, that's the feeling.

normally I'm not a book person I prefer movies but I started reading books recently and I'm glad i started.
I wish I knew this before I was fourteen is a book recommended for everyone especially the youths, here are few things I learnt.
* different between love and infatuation/crush - love grows slowly, infatuaction is something that posses you for a short period of time and off, it goes!

* you can always pass a difficult situation if you have a good friend and an elderly person to guide you.

* great talent can take you places - don't be ashamed to show the world your talent.

* God is the owner of your life, seek his presence in all things.

* before you go into a relationship, be ready, don't just do it for fun or cause you are lonely.

* parents shouldn't compare their children with others cause all fingers are not equal.

* you can't focus in a course(education) you don't like.

* do not ignore an elder's advise no matter how wrong you think it is.

* we make habit and habit makes us.

* small task prepare us for bigger ones - so if you can't manage a small kiosk you can't a big one too.

* people mockery shouldn't make us give up on ourselves instead we should use it as a stepping stone.

* the ABC of academic success and yeah it's helping me - I hope to get all As this semester.

After reading this few lessons of mine I hope you'd get the book, you don't like book like I didn't? - it's worth the risk, just give it a try.

INSPIRATIONAL ||| YOUR KIND OF THING

This is a very old photo of me, it's old but gold.

Have you ever tried to copy a person’s habit and things end up going really bad for you? I stopped envying people when I discovered that we are different people and what work for Mr A might not work for Mr B, just like the guy who borrowed money to play 9jabet, because a girl won 16mil, you know what happened to him? He lost all the money *chai* I can’t imagine being in his shoes rn!

I stood at the ATM to withdraw, the queue? Very long but I waited patiently and it got to my turn, what I’m I saying? Life na turn by turn, no rush, take am jeje your turn go reach, instead of trying to micmic someone or trying to be like someone else to get to the top, be yourself you’ll surely get there.

PS: there’s no top, we are just going higher and higher, if there was, then I think dangote would have said, “let me stop here I’m at the top already, I’ve made so much money for my generations” but no, he’s still working.

When I opened my first Blog I was trying to be like Linda Ikeji but then what worked for her didn’t work for me, I’m a different person and would love to inspire people instead of spreading gossip~ofcos it's not a bad thing.

To be better, you have to accept that you’re different, unique and special, get to know yourself better and know the things that work for you, you may not be the type that understands faster when taught but trust me you’re not dull, all you need is a little more practice and you’re perfect. I’ve a friend who doesn’t read at all but at the end of the semester he get straight As, it’s not magic, it because he understands himself and he’s always in class listening attentively to the lecturer but for me even if I’m in class, I’ve to revise and revise that’s why I decided to start reading early this semester (final year no be joke).

From today, dearies stop trying to fit into people’s shoe because you think they have a perfect life, you are special, amazing and most of all beautiful so do your kinda thing.

hope your day was fulfilling like mine?

PERSONAL ||| FOUR PRESSING NEEDS OF A NEWBIE BLOGGER

This is one of my favorite photos taken on one of those good days-I'm not saying these days are bad sha.

being a blogger is expensive and as a newbie blogger, I've made a list of few things I'll be needing.
1. A domain name: domain name is one thing that makes a blog look serious and outstanding. If you don't have one every blogger out there gives you this 'you are not serious' look. Although I planning on buying one soon, I pray it's sooner than soon.

2. A wardrobe change: for my style to be new and different from normal, I need money to change my wardrobe, I really hope I'm able to do this quick since school is in session and all.

3. Time: the first day I ever heard time is money I laughed so hard that tears began to roll from my eyes, I was laughing and wondering how on earth could time be money? Whoever made this statement must be out of his or her senses but as I grew up, I realized that there's no difference between time and money, they are twins of this same parents and just like the movie IN TIME - you should see it, we get paid for the time we spent wisely. But as a student blogger, this is what I lack most.

4. good camera: bloggers and photographers, best combination ever, I know you would love it if I keep sharing beautiful images of the world in this blog, I know what images can do to people's mind So I need a good camera with knowledge of how to use it or better, I could just attend a phonography class - to learn how to use my phone for pictures and editing.

can you help me out here? what else do you think I'll need to make this blog a FAB one for us? share with me via comment box.

LIFE ||| YOUR OPINION ON THE SEX AND GOSPEL COMBO

I saw this somewhere and I recalled when a friend of mine came to the house to tell me what happened the night before.
According to him, he was about to 'bang' this girl when she started singing a gospel song and in my mind I was like what a combo?
You are fornicating and playing gospel song, are you trying to remind God you need to be punished or something? I don't and will never understand.
This is up for you, what do you reading this think about this combo?

PERSONAL ||| HOW PHIYAH

 

I know you love my shoe Yeeeeeeeeeeeeh,Twas made my by bestie, shout out to tee, I love you.

Back to the post of the minute 'how phiyah', before I start getting too much messages and emails on how I came by the name 'PHIYAH' I want to address it in this post.

During my last days in high school, I came across this book titled names and it meaning, I didn't have a nickname then so I decided to search the book, luckily the owner agreed to lend it to me, going through the book, I saw a greek name Sophia meaning Wisdom and I fell in love with it, throughout my remaining days in high school I nicknamed myself Queensophia-Queen of wisdom.
Years later, I didn't see the need to add Queen to it anymore so it was just sophia, I started looking for way to confuse people and I got it—SAWPHIYAH(Sophia). Last year I met someone who said he'd rather call me Phiyah and that was how Phiyah came into the picture.
Well I'm sad cos the 'someone' left me😢— story for another day Darl
In the comment box below, I want you to share with us how you got your nickname, username, blog name etc.

Few months ago when someone ask to know about me I'd tell them what I wrote in the second paragraph but recently I came to understand that I have a crazy loud voice aching to be heard, in any situation i find myself, i prefer to write than talk - i recall when i had an issue with my bestie, I couldn't talk to her straight-up, i had to chat her up even though we were in the same room, laying on the same bed, yeah that's how it is for me. I'm also passionate about fashion and beauty(you bet, I'm getting better by the day).

 WHERE YOU CAN FIND ME:
You can find me somewhere between 'the develop me' project, staying positive no matter how hard it is, encouraging/inspiring others and working so hard to proof to life that i'm too big to be swallowed – smiles.

CONNECTION WITH ZOOLOGY AND BLOGGING:
when I tell people I blog, they ask 'what's the connection between zoology and blogging'? well this is what I always tell them, Zoology is a profession while blogging is a way of expressing myself to people without having to face them, for fear of being judged, or blaming myself for hurting their feelings.
ONE OF MY BIG DREAMS:
Having a personal blog was one until this morning.
Having a fashion house is one of my biggest dreams, I love to see people look good, I love it even more when I am credited for their good looks, there's this unexplainable joy that comes with the good look credit. Let me stop here for now, as we spend time together we'd know more about each other.

 I'm excited to meet y'all so don't forget to let me meet you in the comment box.

MY FIRST BLOG POST ||| WHY I STARTED BLOGGING

In my head, this blog has been up and doing for a while now but here am I making my first blog post with a 'not too good' feeling.

For sometime now I've wanted to get a personal online space where I can pour every emotions, challenges, struggles, disappointments, happy moments, moments like this, and every other moments you can think of.

writing this~my first blog post, I'm not sure of the feeling but it isn't all excitement, it also has fear in it.
The excitement - this is all I ever wanted to do, to tell the world that I exist, to connect with people of my kind, tell them they are not alone and share the positivity to everyone out there willing to tap from me.

The fear - I fear that when it get to tough, I might quit or allow myself to get swallowed by life again, I fear that I might lose friends and my life won't be normal anymore but anyways right now I'm completely ready for everything I'll get from the world.

To open this blog, I had to kill procrastination & laziness and I hope they are dead gone. Here is the one reason I opened this blog:
To connect with people, tell them they are not alone and together we can and will survive despite the many obstacles. 

Make it easier for me, tell me you are here, make a post about why you opened your blog or social media account via the comment box.
