What is poetry?
The other day I attended a meeting for our school poetry club. I had wanted to see the performances and a friend of mine had said that they were beginning at 9 am. I arrived at 10 because I had spent the night before not in my room.;) Turns out my friend had it wrong, idiot!!!, and this was actually a meeting between the school club and the guest artists that had been invited. Since I was already there I decided to stay.
Suicide
Today I’m in a sufficiently depressed to post this rather dull post. I wrote it when I was going through a really bad time in my life. I’m feeling right now something similar to what I did then.
Has any of you really contemplated suicide? As in really really thought about it? I have. Sometime I feel it’d be better than all the sadness in the world. Where everyone’s life seems to be going better than yours?
Why a Kenyan revolution will never happen
I needed to out this up quick which is why I’m doing this on a day I already have on post up but I feel the longer I wait the less relevant what I have to say becomes. Also I’m not a political scientist or any sort of expert on revolutions and such matters, these are just my thoughts.
Recently, ever since the Tunisia and then Egypt protests and revolts there’s been a lot of chatter on my time-line(Twitter) about whether such a thing can be repeated in Kenya. Today there was even talk of one on 28th February. I don’t know where this one came from but there were a lot of tweets tagged with it in the morning.
Another fashion rant
Okay it’s been a while that I’ve done a post on fashion so today I’m taking the time out of very empty schedule to bless you all with my knowledge. Before we go on, I have no idea why my fashion posts never get any comments even though I’m usually telling you guys the truth as I see it. And I’m always right.:) So know on to the rant.
| POINTLESS |
Big ass handbags. Yes I’ve talked about them before and I’m going to do so again. I don’t really like them. I don’t see the point of someone carrying around a handbag bigger than my bagpack. What is y’all carry in there? As in when I leave the house all I have on me is a wallet and my phone but y’all chuck with a massive hand bag filled with nothing and that time I ask you whether you sleep over somewhere(or planning to be chips’d, apparently they’re also called chip funga bags. You might wanna read @savvykenya’s post for an explanation) and you say no. SO WHAT THE FUCK YOU NEED A BAG THAT BIG FOR!!
It's the end of Yu and me
This is a brief continuation from yesterday’s post on yu. After all that BS with the internet and customer care they went and made sure they did everything and I do mean everything to completely lose me as a customer!!! Yesterday I was angry now I’m fucking livid!!
On my way to the Goethe Institute, where the film DAWA was showing (More on this in a bit), my credit finished! I was like wow! That was 150bob in one day! I was already looking forward to getting home and changing the accursed line! I went a got myself some credit and loaded it in.
WTF? Is Yu effing serious?!!!!
I’m so very angry!!! Let me explain why. Today I’m to twitter and @Mwirigi tweet that Yu(cellular network here in Kenya) data had now increased to sh10/mb. I was naawwwww!!!! Really? Why would they do that!? So I called customer care to find out if things had changed and was informed by a very nice lady that nothing had changed and things were still at sh3/mb. So I heaved a sigh of relief and went about my business.
Safaricom is a bully!!!!
So today Safaricom announced it full year results today. Apparently Safaricom had turnover up 19.1% to Sh83.96b, subscribers up 18.2% to 15.79m ; dividend up 100% to Sh8b at 20cents a share and a profit of over sh20b. But along with that announcement that the Information PS Ndemo annouces that the THE KENYA INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS (FAIR COMPETITION AND EQUALITY OF TREATMENT) REGULATIONS, 2010 been suspended to be reviewed! Nkt!! 
Now I’m sure that most of you(Kenyans that is) have heard if not read about the aforementioned regulations. They mostly protect the smaller operators from bullying from the dominant player(Safaricom). It mostly(actually only, I think) deals with interconnection rates. So that means when Safaricom decides to raise interconnection rates they have to prove that they’re doing it because their costs to do so have gone up. It also states that “A licensee shall maintain accounting separation techniques to be focused on the separation of revenues, costs and capital employed into categories in order to ensure that there is no discrimination between internal and external pricing in all services provided by the licensee."(Taken verbatim from the regulations)
4 days of a really bad mood
Am not sure how to start this but I realise that by writing this I’ve already began…Its been four days…four days of a really bad mood. I’m not sure why but of the last four days I’ve realised that I’ve been very angry for most of the time lets look at the days one at a time.
Day 1: My baby sis, J, wakes me up to tell me that she’s been left by her school bus so I immediately wake up wondering what could’ve gone wrong this morning! So I walk out into the sitting room and right there taking care of her stupid kid is H, the stepmother! Stupid woman how does Joyce skip the “adult”(using this extremely loosely) in the house and come wake me up!! NKT!! And she didn’t even seem concerned!! so anyway I immediately take J to school but seriously how is it that am the one taking all this responsibility of a parent when there are two adults in the house??? They’re just fair weather parents.Dad with his bullshit “bonding” sessions.He’s never there when J is crying or sad or angry.He’s even walked out once when J was crying for our mum…just walked in saw the tears and walked right back out!
Interesting situation leads to troubling questions...
I seem to be on a roll with the blog posts this week. I’ve been quite encouraged by the comments you leave on the posts and twitter, thanks. Anyway today’s post is not the faint hearted and is rather explicit in nature but it’s important that I put this down because it got me asking some really really difficult questions. I just hope that I can tell the story well enough so you get what was going on clearly enough.
Things chics wear that I really hate...
Hey everyone! I know its been a while since I did a new post and I’m sorry, I’ve been so busy as any of you who follow me on twitter might have noticed. I’ve been going up and down the country trying to organise matters school. I could definitely write a blog post about that and I probably will one day.
But today I want to cover something I’ve covered before;fashion. So I have in more of my looking at people on the streets come up with another list of thing chics wear that they’re probably greatly thankful for that I’ve come to hate! So now without further words or ado here it is…
