I’m a skincare girlie through and through, but in the Nigerian tropics? I’m sorry, there’s just no way I’m wearing sunscreen at home or reapplying it every 2-4 hours while I’m outside.
The first shock of my life as a Nigerian while growing up was when I went to some of my friends’ houses and I discovered that they used to thank their parents after eating.
this is one of the reasons i always feel long distance relationships creates the best lovers fr.. the moment you can take intimacy off the table & they still fill that void in you, offer you value, without being blinded by lust or inordinate affections, now that’s your person.
One thing about adulthood that way too many people learn way too late (and have no choice but to learn the hard way): you have to be deliberate/proactive about everything. For the first time in your life, you can't be passive participant in anything.
