Dear Adaobi (Fowora's Reply)

Dear Adaobi,

 I am highly flattered by how much you were able to describe me. If I didn't know you too well, I'd have said you're obsessed with me. You need not wonder why I have a black skin, red lips and white eyes cuz that's the way God made me.

You talk about how I don't smell nice or sway my hips, well that's just me being me. I thought you to be intelligent enough to see why Obim dumped a pretty and posh girl like you for Fowora the dirty girl. Since you've been unable to figure it out, I'll just help you. And no! its not jazz. Obim wants to be with someone who is original, humble and listens to him. These three things are evidently missing in you.

Most of all, I have a good heart and that's the zenith. I am no longer the dirty girl you know cuz Obim has upgraded me so there's no way back for you. All the best in finding and keeping your new man.

 Light skinned Princess, this is my secret.

Yours in superiority.
 Fowora.

Birthday Butterflies

 It's few weeks to my birthday, and I've got butterflies in my tummy. I know, I understand this feeling, it happens, at everytime my birthday came running. I remember I use to write stuff a day before my day, a recount of what the year had been for me, outlining my good and bad times, putting into words my beautiful moments and sometimes, just crying half way through... (Sneak peek: never keep a diary if all you record is your sad moments) Phew! The feeling of getting older is real, mixed feelings here and there, anxiety, sober reflections, and yunno, thinking about things I didn't get in the end. Today, I'm penning down my thoughts, I want to talk about a few things, how getting old feels to me, but again, I have tears tingling in my eyes, because, somehow, I have lost out on a lot of things, things I wish I had... Life just makes you feel unsatisfied, but I have learned to be contented, and bask in the euphoria that I can't have everything I wish for, not to sound

Something to Rant about (Don't break true friendship)

This is for my friend Pharez 😢 I lost Pharez sometime between February and March. I didn't find out about his death till December. And when I found out he died, I couldn't fight back tears, where was I all through the months that passed by. What was I doing, did I stop caring or did I not care at all? Pharez and I shared four years of friendship. He always reached out to me, ALWAYS. Wanting to know how I was faring, if I was okay, if I needed help on something, he was everything a true friend should be. He cared so much his brother thought we had something going on between us, but no, we were just friends, just good friends. I got a nick name too, AdaPharez. The last time I lost contact with him, he had left the country to somewhere not too far away, can't remember the country now, so his lines weren't going through. When he came back, he reached out to me, told me he travelled and needed some alone time to fix things, I understood, we all need some alone time so

What I think of Feminism when I'm alone

 When I tell people I am not a 'feminist', they go 'you can't be serious' on me 😂. I have a very small circle, my circle knows how much I try to work hard and try many other stuffs too. So with that, the 'she must be a feminist' becomes the line on everyone's lips. I. Am. Not. A. Feminist. I am first human before anything else, and I've grown into the understanding that I have a right to my choice, not yours or any others but mine, my own choice. Right to make my own decisions and live by them. I am a woman who will gun for everything that pleases her. How people see this as being a feministic nature is something I don't understand. I understand women have been put in places where they shouldn't be, that we have been placed below the belt, that our strength has been undermined and our lights dimmed because we are women. I also understand that the surrounding in which I am raised see's women as weaker vessels, that we shouldn&
