This post got me laughing all through. It’s so honest, unedited but in the midst of it all she still finds a way to bring in humour. Akachi and I went to the same secondary school (F.G.G.C. Ow) and we serve together in the Youth Church of Family Worship Centre.
Oh hey,hi there *had no idea the camera was already rolling…and this is the story of countless number of people who 2013 must have taken by surprise for the most part…sigh* Back to my intro! That pretty girl on that picture you just glossed over is I, yours truly Akachi Chinwendu Nwoke *yeah feel free to run back and stare properly at the picture but don’t lose focus lol* I am the Creative Director of a makeup outfit originally born out of joblessness, it’s called Visages Parfait Makeover (please go to http://facebook.com/visagesparfait for more info), and I am extremely grateful to God for birthing her through me three years ago, because we have come a looooong, rough but glorious way *smiles*
Back to 2013 *sighs* JANUARY started like every other year, filled with dreams and hopes and different aspirations that I was sure would come to fruition by Dec. You know, get a well-paying job to compliment my makeup stuff, get in a relationship and hopefully get married, mooooove out of my parents’ house *pwheew*, get my international or local ECOWAS passport and at least travel out na, even if its Ghana, Cameroon or Uganda *stop laughing at me joor ,it’s well* I really stepped into this year bursting with energy. Fast forward to MARCH, my 1st heartbreak, the guy left *stay on this blog & you’ll get the full gist, the day I finally opened up to give my girlfriend Amelia the full gist, I can swear her jaw hurt for days because it kept dropping lol* Same month, I cancelled on a lot of my clients in order to go for a competition in Las Gidi (Lagos), well to cut the story short, it was another heart breaking experience. So I was man broke, money broke and biz broke 😦
For lack of space, let’s just fast forward to DECEMBER *still in a yay or nay mood though, I must confess* I didn’t get married this year obviously..ah ah, you ma for don hear am na lol. I didn’t get the civil service job I was hoping for..kai e for make sense o. Yes my dear, thanks for reminding me, but NO, I no even cross Benin Republic border 😦 So what really happened in my 2013? Well, my God stayed faithful, I still had massive fun in church and outside *i sha discovered Yogourberry this year, yes,better late than never hehehe*,I travelled to different parts of Nigeria eventually and God ensured my safety. I am still alive and healthy with every member of my family intact *Who is like this my God?* I also must not forget that you are taking your precious time to read my write up, I already feel like a celeb joor lol, thank you very much 🙂
Finally,I…. *oh, the camera is off? now, now, now? Na wah o* (And that’s the way life is,like play 2013 has come and practically gone. May 2014 not catch us unawares 🙂 ) Ciao mes amies *honey hugs*
Akachi is such a clown! Kept laughing all the way. I’m glad u still have a heart of thanksgiving amidst the bad breaks. Pls dnt let go of those dreams for our God is faithful. He shall grant u the secret desires of ur heart.
Btw: those leggs tho (just like Jmad’s) and the shoes 🙂
Wide grin @ legs. I equally laughed just reading through it but in all God remains faithful.
your friend chinwendu from the impression created, Will be fun to be with… very funny and easy going. Her husband is in the final year of God’s preparatory school.
I wish you the best……..
This is so me I tell you.In fact I can just repost and insert my name.
Yes oh despite everything, there’s reason to be thankful
