What I learnt in my 30s

Image
Just turned 30? Welcome to club 30 LOL Where we are not to old to have fun but old enough to know when to stop. Here we go guys, your life is waiting to begin. Okay, I have been thirty for like hmm 3 to 4 years now. Let me officially say I am still a learner, but from what I have seen so far, a lot did change. I must say that I grew up.  The time I turned 30, my baby sister Dr. Fay , I can't remember why said to me "auntie you are getting old o"  Ah! Okay I felt a bit of fear. I had a lot that I hadn't achieved in my 20's, things I thought I'd have achieved before 30. Example, I had planned to get married at 22 years old and have about 6 beautiful kids before 30. I am super serious right now.  It didn't happen. Just out of curiosity, how much of what you had high hopes for happened for you?  My University Education didn't even happen as planned.  Life did happen for sure. As most people would say. I was wise in my 20's, I got wiser in my 30s. We a...

Confident Ladies

Image
Would like to begin by thanking all readers on bebby's blog.  It has been such a long time, sorry for the long silence. Thankfully, I'm back with more spice and as a better blogger. It would not be complete without a Confident Woman Feature, you guys rock. Welcome toThe Confident Woman  blog also to be called the Confident Woman Diaries. The Confident woman series began as a desire to inspire women through the use of social media. It is also a medium to encourage women out there and put a smile on their faces. Learn from each other, build and lift each other with words of encouragement. I would have posts varying from fashion tips, relationships such as personal, workplace, social e.t.c. and how to be on top of things. Women must be encouraged to be confident and not let people pull them down with words or actions, but be able to confidently stand unfazed. Women are gifted and talented multi-taskers, as such have the ability to achieve a lot in a day. T...

How to cope in this rainy season

How to get by in this rainy season  By Bebby Ima Life they say is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but it's about learning to dance in the rain. I used to be really pissed  about the rainy season......okay truthfully, I still am.  I remember being a kid and it rained so hard on this particular day, all day precisely and i was really scared. To add salt to injury, my siblings told me the world was about to end and to go pack my belongings so we can leave, ah I cried and ran into the room to pack, just then they began to laugh. Who does that to a kid? well-done big bro and sisters (culprits). I just do not understand why the rain won't fall with moderation, you know? like start, pause for a few days then make it rain again. You know you do share the same sentiments as mine. Last night, I thought and jotted several intriguing topics to blog about and voila! The showers through the night struck me.  My readers would like to read about coping with this...

The Budget Student

SHOPPING ON A BUDGET AS A SINGLE LADY  All my single ladies (in Beyounce's voice). I am a single lady who lives on a budget.  I make it my business to know where to get all the really good stuff at a very good price too. I target the really juicy sales, i never miss an opportunity to strike a good bargain. So if you are a single lady, who like me are on a 'not so juicy paycheck' or living on daddy and mummy's pocket cash.  I will like to share with you on how to make the most of it, as a student, a youth corper, an employee or even a boss lady. You can thank me later. Why must you shop on a budget? Trust me lady, you don't want to spend money without direction and be left feeling really sad because deep down you know you have wasted your fund.  Another reason to spend on a budget is so that you can save for the rainy day or for that really lovely designer stuff, a vacation or for an event. It's true that a person who can properly plan ...

Hi, we are just about to enter into spring in the UK,it was all wet and cloudy,a good day to stay in bed and blog. You know that feeling when you are dressing up to go out and you just do not fit into your good clothes anymore?  Well,  that's what I have gone through these past couple of months...phew!!!  I've had to go shopping to get bigger clothes,my God I have watched 2 dress sizes bigger in a few months and if I don't do something it will get worse.And to think am on a tight budget now,changing my wardrobe every time won't help me stay on budget now. When I first came to the United Kingdom I was a dress size 12 now am a size 16,oh I no longer drink fizzy drinks and i try to cut back on what I eat and still I 'rise'(get bigger)....But yes I have finally decided to lose some weight, first thing is i decided for real to lose weight.
