Amies

True bond brings inner peace and strength. Maybe it happened quickly, but she’ll always prioritize others before herself. It never mattered if it was a random stranger or a childhood friend. Her catchphrase was always “go hard or go home.” She understood the definition of friendship and expressed it through acts of service, gifting, quality time, and words of affirmation, even though she found it hard to show her emotions. She realized that people loved differently, which made her uncertain…

23

It’s the last day of my birth month and I decided to post today just because I feel like. So I’ve lived two decades and trennium and I feel ancient already. I try so hard so see if I can go with the trend and flow with my friends within my age range but it’s not that easy. Sometimes I feel like a mom, other times a guidance counselor.

My struggles that are too real being short.

I’ll be the last person to say I’m short. In my head I’m too tall that’s probably because most of my friends are tall and I’ve never dated someone less than 6ft so it automatically gave me the pass to be tall. But I’m unquestionably short. Sometimes I get tired of looking up to my friends so I can talk to them or getting on tiptoe just for a hug. The struggles are too real. My life sometimes is a…

Tell me your dreams

Okay I’m not reviewing Sidney Sheldon’s book with the same title. This isn’t Ashley, Toni or Alette being in one person. I don’t know how that Disociative Personality Disorder works or if it’s actually real, but sometimes I am convinced that I have four distinct personalities and I play it out unconsciously. -First of all, there’s the very serious Aniekan that would literally see that everything goes as planned.

Be an expert in Small Talk

Move beyond the weather to make small talk less painful and more productive. Here are five things that great conversationalists know. Small talk gets a bad reputation. To avoid this allegedly meaningless drivel, people skip networking events. Or, almost as bad, they attend, but talk to the three people they already know.

Specially for you

I’ve met someone special, the happiest person I’ve ever seen, so full of life that I wondered what I’ve been missing before I met her. Her face is quite different but it made her look intriguing. She has a beautiful heart and I decided she was going to be my lunch partner. She is different from every other person I’ve come across. She is carefree, eats with joy and she’s always grateful from the depth of her heart.  I had…
