AHMAD TEA'S SIXTEENTH ANNIVERSARY IN NIGERIA

Ahmad Tea is celebrating its sixteenth anniversary in Nigeria. They organized monthly competitions from July 2017 to December 2017. The lucky winners each got numerous gifts.
I only found out about this in October. So I tried my luck but due to network issues I was unable to post my answer before 7pm(which is the rule). I tried again in November - I was able to meet up with the time - but I didn't make the top three.
However I reluctantly participated in the December competition. The challenge was to take a picture that best represents my teatime. You guys know how I feel about photography. It motivated me to try my luck. I took over fifty pictures before I finally settled for one.




I got home from the salon some days after and a congratulatory message popped up from Ahmad Tea! I was so happy! I kept screaming "I won!" lol😂 Everyone knows that I've been an Ahmad Tea person so they (friends and family) all felt I deserve it.






So no matter what, never ever give up! Okay?

Happy Holidays!

Operation #Findbaebefore2018

First of all *clears throat*, I never thought I'd ever write a post about something like this! Lol... Anyways, are you guys aware of the trending hashtag find bae before 2018 on twitter? Apparently, the association of single people😂 have unanimously decided to do something about their singleness!( Oh my God😅!)

If you're unfortunate enough to be in this category, It is time to 'shoot your shot!' (as they call it! Ya'll know I'm still a stranger to twitter😂).

You know its hard to be on twitter and not have a twitter crush in fact I think its safe to say everybody has a twitter crush!

Now since no one wants to go in to 2018 single why not shoot that shot? I mean what's the worse that could happen eh? (babu ruwana fa amma!😂 )If they reject you, you don't even need to post it...lol, just silently take your 'L' (I don't even know what it means😅) and go!

This lucky lady 'shot her shoot' in the guys DM and voila! She found bae before 2018!!!


Would I shoot my shot?

Hehehehe! Anybody who knows me knows I don't take chances! Sorry to disappoint you but I don't think I'll be shooting any shot this season😂, although I'll be rooting for all those who do!*finger's crossed*


I think you all deserve a medal Of bravery!

Growth and challenges

Hello!

What challenges have you faced with growing older?




I remember a long time ago I couldn't wait to be an adult. You know there is nothing quite like a child's naivety. I had thought it(adulthood) meant that ones dreams would be in motion, kick start and just skyrocket( Haha...what a joke!).


I suppose I had assumed being an adult meant everything would be in order and a little hard work would set it in motion.

What are my thoughts now?

Its very different. This is why you can't rely on what people say they want years ago. Time changes, we grow everyday. What you wanted last year might be the opposite of what you end up doing two years from now. It isn't hypocrisy, its growth!


A very funny thing I noticed about myself is how my tastes are changing. I have always(ALWAYS!) hated ketchup but after a trial recently I realized that it isn't so bad. I had the same experience with pringles (sour cream and onion is my favorite!) too.


Generally I think it has been one hell of ride! It isn't a smooth road as the younger me thought. Its most definitely not something to rush. I am not in a hurry to grow up really. I don't think anyone should be. The responsibilities that arise boy old boy its not easy! Surely one can't avoid them forever but its okay to take one step at a time(one shouldn't come and go and kill himself😂)

Do anticipate more blogposts in shaa Allah I am back to stay! Don't forget to follow 99_lifestyle on instagram! xx!

HELLO DECEMBER...

Hey guys! I'm sure that I'm not the only one who thinks 2017 went by pretty fast. Can you believe its December already? Yeah I know I'm not ready for it either but its here anyway.
So how far with the resolutions you made last year? How many goals have you achieved? I'll tell you what, 2017 for me has been a year of growth. I have learnt a tremendous amount things in this year that nothing can substitute. I am very grateful for that. Anyways scratch that! We have 21 more days to go before next year. There is no limit to what you can do before you start with the resolutions for next year. I intend to - God willing- use the remaining days of this year to work on my blog! I have a whole lot to say and share so why keep it inside? I suggest you do the same too....xx
