I cheated!



I just cheated o. 🙆🏽‍♀️😫

Happy new month beautiful blog fam.
How are you all doing?
I pray that this month will be beautiful for you and you will indeed experience 11th hour miracles this month.

This is not the type of post I planned to start the month with but I've been thinking of ways to bring back and infuse my hilarious stories to the blog. And this post you're about to read was something I originally planned to just post in a caption on my Instagram blog page (You should follow me if you're on Instagram), but decided otherwise so that my blog fam (those not on Instagram) can refresh their memories on the hilarious side of Faith. Not every time serious talk in form of pick-me-up posts and other motivational, inspirational posts, abi? Sometimes, let's laugh a "liru" 😂, while we wait for Faith to drop a short story series. (Do you miss my short stories and do you want a new series as the holiday season is approaching? Let me know in the comments so I can start praying to God for inspiration and energy. Writing a series is a lot of work. 😅)

Okay, back to today's gist on how I cheated.

Two weeks ago, Hubs and I decided to kick-start a diet plan. Prior to then, I had been feeling very bloated (I think I've been bloated almost all year sef) and super uncomfortable. Most times, people don't understand when I say I'm watching my weight but that's story for another day. (I digress)

We had this free medical outreach in my church in August and this bloating was my only complaint. The doctor recommended some things which I didn't even do (now that I think about it 🤦🏽‍♀️), so bloating continued.

Anyway, we officially started dieting again after plenty talk, with the main goal being to work on portion control and take more fruits and veggies. Nice plan bah?

But today (a little over an hour ago), I cheated. 😫😫😫

To be fair, I started the day with pawpaw. It was even fruit I munched on in the middle of the night because hunger can be annoying once you decide to start a diet. If you can relate to how hungry you get once you decide to watch your weight or follow a particular diet, please share in the comment section. 😫

But my head is currently all over the place for one small academic paper I'm supposed to write (I've started writing it sha) and submitted sef.
Honestly, this paper is not even a big deal but I don't know how to do anything in a wishy-washy way. My thoughts are scattered and I've spoken in tongues to calm my nerves, slept and woken up, eaten more pawpaw, drank water. Nothing is working.

So I told myself I need something sweet to solve this problem. I heard or read somewhere that it helps to relieve stress.
That's how your girl went to make creamy biscuit flakes. You know those ones that the milk is more than the biscuits? Yes, that type.😫😫😫 

And guess what? It did not work. 🤣🤣🤣😫😫😫

I just wanted to laugh at myself publicly and also make you laugh in the process. No better way to start the month, right?

I'm going to complete my paper and submit like that. I've ran out of time sef. 🤣🤣

End of gist.

P.S: I entered Facebook some minutes ago and found this picture above. I just burst into laughter at the realisation of this fun fact. Did you know this before? 😂


Thank you for reading.

See you on the next one.
Till then, have a blessed month. 😊

weTalk! (Thin Lines:1)

Hello blog fam. Trust we've all been doing well. Let me start by thanking you all for your amazing support and devotion to this blog. I'm truly inspired, motivated, and encouraged to write more. The feedback from the last short story series 'Chasing Shadows' has been mind blowing. Tons of comments from different quarters (plus the comments I bullied  some people into dropping... lol. (don't mind me. Your comments inspire me. I need that inspiration, so bear with me if I force the inspiration out of you, literally)) have requested a second part to the story. Many people think the story shouldn't end that way. I'm done fighting the urge not to write a part 2 of 'Chasing Shadows'. So, I guess it will be safe for me to tell y'all to anticipate a second part to the story. In the meantime, I want us to go back to our 'weTalk' series, which I started in April 2015. It's basically short stories raising pertinent issues that affect everyone

Chasing Shadows (Episode 9): Finale

“ You have to tell her the whole truth. I’m sure about this one, okay? She deserves to know…” *Pause* “I’m praying for you, son, like I’ve always done. You know that is the only thing that has kept me going…” His mother’s words rang in his head. He could still feel her gentle squeeze on his shoulders, and the softness of her voice as she prayed for him. He was such a mess all through the week. He decided to get his act together before driving to Lagos that Saturday. He had visited his mother the Friday night before and told her about the call from Sade’s mother. She had smiled in a weird but calm way when he told her. There were so many things he was still trying to figure out in his life, especially what his family had done to deserve series of misfortune. But above all, his mother’s calmness was the one thing he couldn’t figure out. It was not just the prayers and relationship with God that she claimed to draw her strength from. He found it hard to believe that anyone

Faith Tunde-Yara The Previous Day "Wait, Tade..." Sewa said at the top of her voice once they were out of the compound. He had been dragging her for some time now, and although she was scared of this new person in her bestie's skin, she couldn't take it anymore. They both had to think logically at this point, and it was obvious Tade was not in his right senses. Tade suddenly became conscious of himself and the hurt he was causing Sewa. He released his hold on her and began to
