• ThumbnailRacism is real. Ask me, I saw it in action yesterday.

    I was in a matatu, heading somewhere, and I was seated next to the driver with a friend.

    As the driver was driving, he encountered two middle-aged Indian […]

    I’m sure you’ve all seen them, the dreadlocked, curly-haired, braided, kinky-tressed (or Afro-kinky-tressed) ladies all over town. These days when I walk around the city centre, or go to any event […]

  • bailey wrote a new blog post: Purpose or Prestige? 1 year ago

    ThumbnailAfter going through a harrowing quarter-life crisis and FINALLY finding my purpose, what I can say is that this has been such an eye-opening experience for me in so many ways. People, embrace your quarter-life and mid-life and three-quarter life crises! They open your eyes to new dimensions! At that point in my life (and even now), I [...]

    Hahaha I liked this article. But how can someone be both shy and the-life-of-the-party?
    Anyway, that aside, a certain friend of mine always tells me to look for my best friend in a man coz we will always have so much to talk about. Hmmm…
    I am curious about how it will go for you.

    Great article, as always! I hope you got another kitten?

    I love your posts, of course this was hilarious. Men are so different from women, I think for us it would go something like: 1. Denial – he’s going to come backe 2. Realization – he is NOT going to cme back 3. Whiny-whiny – Why oh why, tears, mourning, sorrow, sad love songs, etc [...]

    I think this is very true: “Men use friendship to start a relationship and women use friendship to end it” and it has happened to me so many times. I wonder how it all turned out…

    Tee hee hee! The randomity of your thoughts is very consoling…I am not alone…I like this article very much!

  • ThumbnailHappy New Year 2011! It’s great that we all get to see a new year even as we cringe as the years add on to our ages, but oh well…such is life. It strikes me as no coincidence that during the festive season, there are so many competitions, raffles, pick-and-win’s, shop-and-grab’s, etc. Why is it that [...]

  • ThumbnailI was watching TV on Saturday morning, hoping to catch some funny cartoons to remind me of my not-so-distant childhood (cough cough, but do I say :) ) but what I came across was disturbing, to say the least. When did cartoons become so…how shall I put it (at the risk of sounding redundant)…disturbing? There was a [...]

  • Nice one and nice move with the cellphone.

  • And I agree (hehehe I just had to do it)

  • I’m so sorry for all your experiences. Nairobi is getting more unsafe even as so-called surveys and research findings claim that there is a reduction in crime.
    Self-preservation is important but I say only God protects us.

  • This is the most irritating thing about shopping in supermarkets. Local kiosks have coins in plenty, you will never hear someone was denied some shillings there, so why is it that way in supermarkets? The other maddening thing is that these same supermarket attendants will insist on giving you 50cent coins then when you try [...]

    Wow that must have been quite an aha! moment for you. That was brave. I wish you all the best as you blossom! :-)

  • I so feel this post. The other day I was telling an aunt that I don’t know my neighbors (in a worried sort of voice) and she replied that it’s a nice place to live if you don’t know your neighbors: zero interference. I thought that was so sad. Actually, you are quite brave to [...]

  • ThumbnailI am at a place where I don’t know anything. Coming from someone who has always known what she wanted from life, this is scary, to say the least. Further studies, well, those have been put on hold as I decide what it is I even want to do, if there is anything I even want [...]

  • Wow, you just opened up my eyes right there! Awesome, I think YOU should have your own Single Ladies’ Conference..lol

  • Hahahaha I sooo feel your frustration! The whole “American accent” thing just cracks me up coz there is no other country that people inherit it’s accent as much as the U.S. We are a people who are ashamed of our heritage. In a way I totally get it. Our leaders are a farce, a mockery. [...]

  • You raise a very good point. Thank God our office is not open plan so I can have some weird ringtone but really, people in the office don’t need to know all your personal issues.
    I say keep personal and professional lives separate.
