A SECTION OF MY 2020

Whew!

Its crazy how I predicted how 2020 would be in 2019. I finished my final undergraduate exams Dec 2019 and my project in Feb, 2020. Anyone that asked what my plan was then would get a detailed prospect of my expectations. I expected that I'll rest at home in March 2020, start internship in April 2020 till around August/November 2020, then go for NYSC. I was so sure I had it calculated. I thought i'd just come home and see internship straight away as per I'm a graduate of OAU (awaiting result🤣) and a graduate member of ICAN (awaiting induction🤠). Hot akara😂. But the wind blew 💨

'Rona came and kept us on an indefinite house arrest. Y'all know the story so don't let me bore you with that. We thank God for the victory we have over it. 

But, do y'all know how hard it is to make plans without a slight awareness about the future?? Like, in your mind you want to start something but you're not sure because you can't place a time on it, because the held on life could continue in the next week. I was just anticipating that things would get back to normal in weeks/months time, but, this is 10 months down and still counting and I'm still here😊. 

Guys, I sent CV ooo, I send CV taya. I would literally just wake up one morning and type "Job vacancies in Lagos" on twitter and start forwarding my CV's to the emails on those tweets one by one with different Job titles🤣 🤣. Or is the "Internship and Job vacancies in Lagos 2020" that I would type on google hoping that one of these guys would just reach out to me and call me for interview but E be what, E be things.

But looking back now, instead of these companies or organizations airing people, what would it have cost them to just acknowledge the mail and tell us that they've found their best fit instead of just keeping the hopes of many on the mountain. Na them sabi😏.

On this job thing, location played her own part also. The thing is, there are good and bad sides to living in a "Village" as I love to call my area. I personally enjoy the sanctity of my area and the fact that I only hear birds and clock ticking. But the bad side is that its not on the map😄, cricket sounds at night could be annoying, you cannot get an item delivered at your door step and most importantly recruiters don't want someone that isn't living in Lagos or close to their location.

Me sef, I'm not sure I'm ready to join the hustle of that state😏.

As Job did not come, local woman sha had to do something, so with the help of God and some people, I did some online courses which was quite interesting and Knowledgeable. Its a plus on the CV. I'm grateful for the gift of men.

Finally, this would have been my convocation week (2nd week of Dec) but ASUU is still trying to secure bags for her self and posterity. Hence, OAU class of 2019 graduates would be convocating in 2021 (hopefully). 

Nonetheless, with all that has happened this year. This year would still stand out for me. Its a year history would have to refer to as the Genesis. 

2021 is ahead of us, and I've been asking myself for the years expectations, but, all I seem to have is just 4 things at the moment, part of which is going for NYSC in one far and beautiful state in Nigeria (my mummy must not see this 🤣😅) and staying happy.

Most importantly, allowing the will of God prevail. He's Almighty

Selah!

Our Governmental Dispositions

In our world today, every Country or Sovereign State has a Constituted Authority. Such Authority is called the Government. The Government are a section of the people, other people have chosen to lead them. At least, Democratically, that's what it means. In a correct system, the Government is supposed to be accountable to the citizens of her country. But in a failed system, it may not be so🤦. Our Government is not perfect. People would and will still continue to make mistakes in what ever position they are. And such people are the ones that makes up the Government. The citizens of the country are not perfect either, we all have flaws, we believe if we get into the governmental leadership position, we would perform excellently well, better than the previous people. Well, its just something we wish for🙄. But what should we do instead, we are aware we have an imperfect government system with citizens that are full of flaws, what should be our disposition? 1. Instead of rain...

A Celebrity

Ever wondered how it feels, that there are some kinda very important people in this world, they are popular, rich and famous. You think of your self so little beside them. What fills your mind is just one opportunity to see one of them and you will take a whole load of pictures and post them on Facebook, Instagram or your WhatsApp status, so that your friends can view you as someone that has met a celebrity. It feels good tho! But have you also wondered that some people out there are also looking at you as a celebrity. Tho, you might not be rich, famous or popular but you have something in you that makes you stand out. No matter who you are in this world, someone out there is looking up to you, someone out there is wanting to do the things you do, someone out there is looking for just one opportunity to take a picture with you. You might as well be wondering that "who is this somebody" well, you haven't found out because you haven't paid attention to that phase of y...

POST-COVID AND THE NEW NORMAL

     Obviously, several persons heard “New Normal” for the first time due to Covid-19, however, the term “New Normal” has existed way before the Covid-19 pandemic. Between 2007 and 2008, there was a Global financial crisis and economists refers to this crisis as the deepest financial crisis that hit the world. In a bid to highlight the aftermath of the financial crisis, business experts and economist made use of the term “New Normal” which simply identifies a deviation from the normal. So, simply put, New Normal may refer to an abnormal scenario or change from the former.       To provide a little background information on Covid-19, the Centre for Disease Control on its website explained that “COVID-19 is caused by a coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. Older adults and people who have severe underlying medical conditions like heart or lung disease or diabetes seem to be at higher risk for developing more serious complications from COVID-19 illness”. The vir...
