Love Lost


Hahahahahaha...........Really?
Before going to the University, I studied in college for a year. It is not that I had failed, I had no other option and my father did not want me to stay idle. I studied law, but I learnt more about life than class.
I had two friends, ladies to be exact. Both of them were beautiful, but I liked one more than  the other. She was short, light skinned and very pretty. The other was chocolate skinned, tall and a model. I had been friends with the despite the fact that we were different in every aspect of life.
I was timid, shy and loved keeping to myself. They were loud (in a good way), outgoing and always ready with juicy stories about what they did the previous night.
The lady I am talking about started talking to me at the second week of school. I was shocked that she approached me. I started asking myself if it was real and occasionally pinched myself to make sure I was not dreaming. She asked me to walk with them as they went home. She also encouraged me to sit and read with them during class. She is the one who taught me how to hug.
She tried to encourage me to join them during their nights of fun, but I adamantly refused. I do not drink, so I would be a killjoy if they took me out.

One day, while hugging her, she kissed me on the neck. I was shocked. I looked at her. However, I did not question her and I have never seen her since.

Blame the media?

(All photos courtesy of google.co.ke) Ever since 2013, the world has been taking a spiral downfall to an abyss of where children as young as 12 to 13 years of age are drinking alcohol, men are becoming useless and full time drinkers of alcohol, girls are growing up wanting to be socialites, racism is still prevalent, terrorism, social media vices, and general pollution of morals and values. This is according to my opinion and experiences. To me, this generation is lost and we need a revolution to wake us up. In my home country looks to me as the worst hit. We are all fighting illegal and second generation alcohol, and yet on Monday night clubs are open in Nairobi and people are drinking till the next Monday. Promotions and events are being held by alcoholic making companies and nobody is asking how they affect us. An event was cancelled because there was no alcoholic drink. I believe if we were to look at the budgets of people, almost 60 percent is going to alcohol, which ...

Why an antagonist is important to a story

  (Made on Canva) Who is an antagonist? An antagonist is the villain of a story. It can be a human being, a natural phenomenon like a hurricane, a disease, an animal, an idea or a fictional character like a dinosaur. The aim of the antagonist is to create chaos and wreak havoc while creating obstacles for the protagonist (hero). The protagonist has to find a solution to the uncomfortable situation caused by the antagonist. In story-telling, the antagonist propels the story forward by creating an inciting incident that forces the protagonist to go on a journey to remedy the situation and restore balance. In the Dark Knight (2008), the Joker creates chaotic situations in the city of Gotham with the aim of killing the Batman. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thanos is looking for rings that will give him ultimate power and make him the supreme being of the universe. Why are antagonists not popular? Being an antagonist is not very appealing, especially in the acting business b...

Thank You

You know it is always very easy to take things for granted because we never know what we have until it’s gone. That must be one of the most cliché lines you will ever read. However, it is very important in this context. The main reason being, I want to say thank you. My life has not be relatively easy. I have gone through a lot of problems and I have the worst reactions to different situations. However, no matter how tough the challenge, in some way I have always come out of it, learned and moved forward. It is hard to explain, but I know it is because of people praying and wishing me well. People have told me that I am going to be great one day, and because of their support and love, I keep building myself with time. If you have followed my story, you will find that I have grown, thanks to the people I have met and interacted with. An example is high school. I used to fail my exams. My first term I was in the bottom 10. It was rough for me and it seemed like I was going ...
