Down to the catch-up.
A lot has happened this year, 2023! By a lot, I really mean a lot.
The good part is I increased my list of talents by getting certified in a few skills - for updates, your baby girl, asides from being a graduate marketer, hairstylist and agriculture enthusiast, I am now a certified lash tech & brow artist. I am a certified Dermatologist, too! I am studying to become a certified cosmetologist. I have written and published 6 e-books, and as of this morning, I got a scholarship to study digital marketing and get an internationally recognised certificate!
I know this is exciting on paper, but not so much in reality. The reality is that I wake up at 7 am, do a little bit of chores, bathe my baby, feed him and get to work. I work and study concurrently while being a mum, too, running around and all of that; when it baby finally sleeps, I cannot sleep because when my morning shift ends, I bury myself in my studies until he wakes, and I have to work, study and mum again - concurrently. Then keep up with work till 9 pm when my evening shift ends, and then I have to try to put my baby to sleep, then study some more till 12 when I finally go to bed, waking up two times at 2 and at 4 to feed my baby before it's finally sleep till 7 am. And the cycle repeats!
Typing this now is my way to relax my brain since I can hear my heart beating through my brain, and it feels like my eyes are about to pop out!
I am tired, frustrated and confused!
I am stressed as fuck! But I have to keep pushing! I am still in Lagos with my parents because things haven't been great enough for me to go home to Port Harcourt. I feel drained, but I keep pushing because I am compensating myself with the thoughts that it is all temporary and will work out for my good.
Anyways! Enough of my tired rants.
How are things with you?
