It has been ages since I have posted a new song, that explains why I felt my blog was missing something. During one of my usual scoutings on youtube I stumbled upon this group from New Zealand. Their genre is hard to describe because they play the ukelele, manjo, electric guitar and drums. Hope you enjoy the video as well as the song :)

Letter to my No.1 blog fan
Dear, Bernadito, bundle of joy(pain),best buddy ever.
This post should have been written probably a year ago and my sincere apologies for that. I know your head is swelling right now and that is why I advise you to pause your reading this very instant and go wash your face because this could just be a fiction of your imagination. For all my other fans like Marie-honore, Mr G. and the rest do not be jealous of this post it was conducted in the most ethical and transparent process. LoL.
These are the reason's why I think Bernard deserves this special post:
1. He was one of the first people I told about my blog.
2. He has been a loyal follower.. I think. If not, my other fans should stage a coup d'etat.
3.He has an awesome sense of humour
4. He uses my blog posts as evidence that "I am an old soul"(his words)
5.I promised to write him a post ages ago.
P.s Benard you can finally breathe a sigh of relief and seriously you should start a blog because you have so much stories to tell of your village expeditions or as I coined 'ghanatrotting'. You always come back telling me of random events or pertinent issues that affect our rural areas which am certain most Ghanaians know nothing about. If you ever listen to me and own a blog make sure you make me your number 1 blog fan!

Where did my vacation go?
I am three weeks into my summer holidays *clear throat* I beg your pardon 'rainy season holidays'. It has been raining almost every single day and I now have a couple of bizarre rain stories under my belt like the "sugar daddy saga". To make matters worse I feel like my schedule has not really changed except that am not going for long boring lectures. My itinerary involves church, hospital, my mum's school and Nubuke an arts center I'm volunteering at.
My friend Benard (the 3rd mention would be the charm) calls me an enigma and I concurr. Here I am complaining, but if my vacation was plain boring and idle I would have felt really useless. First I was complaining I had no internship lined up for me and later was confused on whether I should go to Cote D'ivoire but now I am just dreaming of relaxing with sunglasses at the poolside.
I want to spend these months doing stuff I love but also learning a skill. So I have started learning nail art kind courtesy of Youtube, am helping kids in a drama class and I am going to join a chinese class.
I will post pictures of my nail art soon, hope I get positive feedback :)
Bisous.

Life Decisions
I just finished writing one of my Psychology exams and some things in it got me thinking and to add to that I stumbled on this post and it inspired me to write this post. It's true that human beings were designed to CREATE just look at kids build sandcastles or mothers holding their baby just after childbirth and you will realize this statement is true.
For some time now I have been wondering what exactly I was created to do. What steps I need to take to arrive at that goal. I am way above my age because according to Psycholgist Erik Erikson in his 'Stages of Development' my focus should be on forming relationships (intimacy vs. isolation). But, I am rather thinking like a middle aged person because its normally at that stage people start thinking less of themselves and more about how to impact others and set a legacy (generativity vs.stagnation). When I think about how fleeting life is and how vain it can be ; being born, growing up, having own kids and dying it prompts me that time is not really on my side. Thus, I have decided to write all creative ideas in my diary even when they seem more silly than creative because one never knows.
No one should suggest that I read the 'Purpose Driven Life' or any other book because I have read a whole lot of them. Maybe I should just go ask the manufacturer of the product (life) right? When you buy a gadget and try to assemble it but fail , you turn to the manual.. I think that is what everyone should do.
P.S Do not let anybody look down on you because you were created for a purpose go look for it.
P.P.S Also, if you are looking for a friend to help you in the search you can count on me because I'm searching too..
