Image
Let me first say that this is one event I'm so glad I got to attend, like i so needed that break! The blogger point did a really amazing job yet again, in fact, I have to say that this year was much more better and fun than last year's brunch  because there were more people in attendance and the rain did not disturb us😝 So let me just jump right into it! The 2nd edition of the blogger point's brunch took place on the 27th of August 2017 at Laguna lounge and bar, central area, Abuja. Please I just have to take a minute to say that Laguna is one very beautiful place, my God!😍 it's spacious and the ambiance is just very peaceful and relaxing. It's a place to be indeed. I got to the event quite late because I got held up at church, and makeup also delayed me because my sister wanted me to look good, I think she did a good job though. The cake had finished when I got there, that's how late I wasπŸ˜†πŸ˜† By the time I got there, they were already

Long time no movie post! Yeah, I know, I've also missed it. The last time there was a movie post was sometime in January where we shared life lessons from 2 broke girls   , if you haven't read that post, you definitely should check it out! ' The internship ' is also one of my favourite movies of all time and I can't even count the number of times I've seen it. Last night I saw it again, and this time I wasn't just laughing, (yes it's very hilarious) but I was taking notes on some valuable lessons which I'll be sharing with you today. I hope your weekend was well spent? Mine was too short! 😝 Let's get to it... 1) Don't Let The Close of One Door Keep You From Opening Another : Sometimes, when life hands us lemons, we're so focused on the sour taste that we forget that we can make a lemonade drink out of it.

The moment I first discovered TedTalks, I was blown away, especially because I watched some very 'deep' ones a few of which I talked about here on the blog. Since then I tried to stick to a weekly plan of watching TedTalks weekly, well yeah i haven't been able to do that so much, but when I have the time, I try to stay inspired with some of these talks. Today's post is on three talks i recently watched and thought to share. I am confident that it will make you begin to see things very differently. It is not a long post at all as I will just put up the links to these posts and tell you a bit about them, it's now left for you to go and discover the gem yourself. Stay with me! 1) Success, Failure and the drive to keep creating by Elizabeth Gilbert :This talk lasted for only 7 minutes but trust me when I say it was power packed!

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE BIRTHDAY GIRL

Dear Birthday Girl, It's another beautiful year! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽˆπŸŽˆ Wasn't it just like yesterday when you were having so much fun with the squad in calabar? Eating cake and taking pictures? How time flies indeed! I'm so thankful for how far you've come, the mistakes, the lessons, the achievements, the humble beginnings, the good times, the bad times and most importantly your relationship with Abba, I know it's been great so far! 😊 Now I know this past year has been a HANDFUL, believe me I know. I mean the provision of the job and the almost immediate loss of that same job, the sleepless and traumatic nights over the  'Adeolu scare' as I like to call it, let's face it, how does one really get over the near-death experience of their only brother? Ha! The devil really tried himself that day πŸ˜©πŸ˜† but is it not the same boy that still turned 17 yesterday? God is great! how about all the many fights and misunderstandings with loved ones out of fraustrati
