MY 9ija Nite at Carnivore

Everyone knows my passion for all things 9ija...the movies, guys, accent, style but most of all I admire how they support each other...their love for each other especially when in foreign land is impressive...we can learn a lot from them.

So when my good friend was organizing 9ija nite at Carnivore...I dropped in and my gals Jakki(My mentor, rock and strength), Laura(beautiful) diva were in tow as I watched a lovely show and made new friends.

The organisers did a great job, the acts impressive and looking forward to another bigger event as the brand grows.

The following are some pics Laura captured for your eyes.

Coming into MY own

Well I always say I am a work in progress and like a phoenix I am rising from the ashes and ready for my rebirth and new life full of new colours and possibilties.

It was not always easy knowing what I want and going after it and holding on to it but now I can. It was not alway easy being comfortable in my own skin and pleasing me but now I can.

As I start my new job and I am totally lovin it...let no one tell u that u cant love it and be there to pay the bills as it will catch up with you. It has taken me a long journey but I am finally where I want to be. I had to know what I want and go for it and be patient enough to wait for it. Faith and belief were key my friend.

I have learnt to also expect a lot more from me and know that I can do it and nothing is impossible. I am and will dream big as I am set for great things.

For the most part I am surrounding myself with positive energy and people as negativity can eat and suck u dry and once done spit u out like curd.

I know if I am positive and looking at glass half full then I will thrive that even when going get's tough, I am able to draw and recharge myself from the reserves been building. There is no way you can do this if something or someone has been eating at you and sucking you dry.

For now with those few words I beg my leave but promise to be back soon.

Feel free to tell me your story.

Stay positive it wears beautifully.:-)))

MY AHA MOMENT

WHEN THE SECRET, EAT PRAY & LOVE, POSITIVITY AND MY FAITH IN GOD MET

WOW

Earlier I asked what's in a call...A call is when my friend Jakki put airtime specifically call me and we chatted for 50 min...and no we were not bitchin, gossipin, whining(especially me) we were sharing positive news as we forged each other admiring societies.
What's in a call...Is when at the stroke of midnight  to usher in Valentines Day a guy I met ages ago and neva bothered to play catch up calls and wishes me Happy Vals and talks til his credit runs out and no its not those 30 sec rushed calls.
What's in a call wen uve a CEO for a friend and u call him up and expect him have tym for u and pick up immediately and give u undivided attention then get miffed wen he doesnt pick up or even call up...guess wat he heading a company and every sec counts as he didnt make CEO by languishin...so wen he smses get bak to u u smile and value it more than ur stalker whom uve put on reject list and still cant shake off 2yrs down the line...
So wen I got the message of what's in a call I embarked on a self discovery journey as irestablished family links in Dec/Jan this past and its been AMAZIN...U CAN'T BUY SENSE OF BELONGIN...so spent tym doing chores and woke up one day and realized the weight is gone gosh no more comfort eating, im running around on errands for loved ones and wats more it's rainin MEN...KENYAN MEN...I then realized i was more confident and glowin from inside and it was on my face that no longer bore the tell tale signs of weary depression, sulleness, depression and was now dressin better and lookin better as weight is off so figure back, head up high...and my stylist Wachira is on point as Im now his MUSE.
So Ma other good friend Marie tell me we in Westlands, it past 7.30pm and says lets pop in...and c HIM AND GUESS WAT IVE GONE SAY THANK YOU...it Consolata Church...I now going in wit a smile to say thank you mainly...remember I still want that Honda CRV as finally I want to go for drivin lessons I was afraid off.
POSITIVITY then checks in as I am suddenly surrounded wit REAL people who know me for me I am no longer fronting, or living a lie...I am now grounded with a past, present and future...so pple around me will not expect wat I cant give as they know my limitations...I can now say NO as ME comes first...so ME tym is tantamount...
POWER OF ATTRACTION...my travel bug as u know started wit takin my 18yr old bro to sch...boardin...then the 3 provinces got cross go home...now my PROJECT BABY...
POWER OF ATTRACTION...i c myself inn lights i always go for the dramatic...I love the sound of my voice...I want to produce...Tyler Perry is my model  he was livin in a car wen creating...so I got do beta as I have a roof over my head...
DO YOU FEEL ME...
Most of all EAT PRAY LOVE...My passion for cookin good real food is back and I am creating...effortlessly, I am more openminded but ask God to help me navigate the dating world and help me separate the ruff from the GEM...and I Know He there for me as I am no longer wasting time on dead end meaningless undefined spaces...clande, chips funga etc...I am beta than that...for now got go and let U PROCESS...WUD LOVE HEAR FROM U
