Monday morning, 5:30am, my alarm went off. I snoozed, at least twice, so my actual waking up time was 5:50am. Fortunately, I’d already packed my breakfast and my lunch the night before. In my head, 5:50am was a pretty decent time. Right? Wrong!!! Lang’ata road traffic would prove otherwise. At 8:24 am, I was stuckContinue reading “The Misadventures of The Working Girl”

TYPES OF MATATU PASSANGERS
THIS WAS MY FIRST EVER BLOG. Monday 10th July 2017 Normally when I am coming back from school I board at least two matatus home (kweli Rongai ni mbali), on this particular day I decided not to listen to music on my phone and pay attention to the environment around me. Usually I plug inContinue reading “TYPES OF MATATU PASSANGERS”

We’re inContinue reading “DON’T SAVE IT, SIS.”
24 Things I Know For Sure.❤️.
Hi, my name is Miss No Idea Fam (just incase you forgot, you know, since I’ve been inconsistent). I write sometimes, scratch that, a lot of times.

Love Hacks
I know, I know, I’ve become inconsistent, like your ex was. Just kidding!!! Not sure I was though. Oh dear me, I must have forgotten that one of my goals this year was to be nicer. I’m clearly slacking on that one. It has come to my attention that many people come to me toContinue reading “Love Hacks”

Welcome Back, Working Girl.
Wahenga walisema kuwa ‘Siku Njema Huonekana Asubuhi’. Kidosho yule aliamka na furaha tele. Jumatano ilikuwa siku aliyependa zaidi kuliko zingine zote. Alienzi pia Jumapili na Ijumaa, lakini Jumatano ilimpa bashasha kupindukia. I’m a bit rusty, I haven’t written in ages. I had fatigue last week, which made sense since I hadn’t taken leave days, ever!Continue reading “Welcome Back, Working Girl.”
REALLY, WORKING GIRL???
“Kwani hii boda Iko na speed governor???” “Mbona anaenda polepole hivi sasa???” “Sasa mbona ulisnooze? Vitu Mob Si must aaaaghhh!” Those are some of the questions I asked myself on my motorbike ride to the main stage. I really cussed internally. In case you’re wondering why I took a ‘nduthi’ all matatus that passed byContinue reading “REALLY, WORKING GIRL???”
CONGRATULATIONS, WORKING GIRL.
My punctuality has been under attack off late. The girl who’d get to work at 6:20 am or 7:00 am is now no more. She died. Dead as a DODO. I keep saying I’ll do better, but I can’t bring myself to it. It’s 8:30am, I prefer to withhold information about where exactly I am.Continue reading “CONGRATULATIONS, WORKING GIRL.”
