You can't cut your way into some levels of wealth. Frugality helps you manage money; not multiply it. Frugality is a wealth habit, not a wealth strategy. Build skills, increase your earning capacity, invest consistently. Wealth grows by multiplication, not just subtraction.
Girl to girl: please go and fix your lashes
There's a certain glow a fresh set of lashes gives you that I honestly can't explain. It just elevates your entire look even on your most basic days
I really miss those 200 naira storybooks we used to buy when we were younger.
They always had 2 stories in one sometimes, and you’d have to turn the book upside down to read the other.
My grandma always said “toodaloo” instead of goodbye because she hated goodbyes. When she passed away we were on our way to bury her ashes in the cemetery and we were stopped at a traffic light. There was a red Pontiac Sunfire in front of us with a license plate that said “toodaloo” on it. I kid you not we all lost our minds and started crying.
One hill I am absolutely willing to die on: no book adaptation will EVER live up to the expectations we have for it. The page wins every single time and we all know this.
I’ve been friends with people that think I’m stupid cos I always pick up the bills.
It’s reflex for me and I’m not overthinking anything if I have the money to pay (my nemesis)
I have been blessed by a lot of people too.
I don’t have a limit to how I can spend on the ones I love and it’s so unfortunate sometimes but if I believe that you think I’m stupid we’re actually done with that useless friendship.
Stupid of me to think chattering about books wasn’t really a thing and that nobody would engage with it. Now my algorithm has turned into this cozy little library, and I’ve finally found my people. Apparently, there are a lot of us who are emotionally attached to fictional characters and very opinionated about paperbacks.
