Road to Lonely?

"you know this behavior you do, you push people away. by the time you realize it, it will be exactly how you want it.... YOU ALONE"

Received that text today after declining a visit offer from the same person.......

Now, like I said in my 'Getting my Ducks in a Row' post here i'm a bit of a mess... okay, okay, a lot of a mess! and this year I have been all the way off with family, friends, school, health, mental state. I have had a roller coaster of emotions, even thought about withdrawing from school for this year 'til I was in a better place.

But instead I decided to isolate myself so I could centre myself. Get myself together. Find my happy. Fix myself so I could be better not just for me but also for those around and close to me.
To find motivation so I can get my A game on with school and my health. And also find my happy  (link here) so I can be a better friend . Nobody wants to be around someone that drains the life out of you, I certainly don't so why subject my friends to that? Hence the friendship hiatus.... I'm trying to spring clean my life, you know.

We all have different ways of taking care of our breakdowns and our friends and families just have to understand that and encourage us with it. Mine requires solitude which happens to be my go-to for everything because I think better and more clearly when i'm by myself.
But for someone to say I'll end up alone because of declining a visit... hmmm... That got me thinking... What friend responds like that after finding out I want to be alone? Wouldn't the more natural response be to find out why? And then once you have a better understanding of things then give a more fitting response? or am I the only one that thinks in those lines?

Or is what I think is helping me causing me more harm than good? Is my love for alone time ridding me of friendship? .... See everyone is getting ready to have fun and I'm over here deep in thought over this *sigh* oh well, enough of the ranting.

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!! May you be responsible in your festivities and if you're staying in like me, booo go get yourself a life! lol nah I'm just playing...

~XO~

D.I.Y.: Vest to Bodysuit

Hey! It's been a minute.... yes, a really long minute 🙈 I know. But I'm back!! Woop woop. The festive season is upon us and we all want to look good because why not?? So I'm here to help y'all look good on a budget so you can have enough money left over to go out and celebrate.... you're welcome, you know I gatchu *insert high five here*. So, last year I had written an article on thrifting, or salaula if you may, on the Trendition-Z page, follow the link >  HERE  < . I gave a few tips on how to go about it so you will definitely find it useful. (Read it!!) A while ago, I happened to find myself in DAPP because they had clothes going at K8... K8!!! How could I walk past that?? So I got the vest and knit sweater in the thumbnail picture above for K8 each and felt pretty good about my purchase. Problem is, the vest was way too long as you see above. Ended up looking like a really short dress so it was idly sitting in the closet until I got a light bulb m...

Death's Selective Mourners

Hey y'all.... so yesterday the 4th of April there was a bus accident in which it is reported about 6 people died. Tragic. Especially for the families of the deceased. But... all over social media I only kept seeing condolences to one family. The one whose daughter was a bride to be. Of course absolutely nothing wrong with issuing out condolences. Only problem is this tendency to only feel remorse for and talk about the "celebrity". I'll explain. If there are 2 or 3 people in a vehicle and of those people one of them happens to be a famous person and then an accident occurs, the only person or person's family that will receive tons of love, remorse and have posts of condolences sent their way is that of the famous person. And this really bothers me because do the lives of the other victims not matter and go unnoticed because they were unknowns? No. Every life matters and cannot be measured or valued by one's level of popularity or wealth. So back to yes...

Look for Less with DIY

So.... I'm into arts and crafts, DIY... anything I can do by myself I don't like to spend money on. From changing a light bulb to fixing a plug or socket to hammering something together, fixing a door handle, painting, braiding my hair all the way to the clothes I wear. I prefer to do things on my own from the phrase/saying: "If you want something done right do it yourself"  That's my motto. I prefer to be self sufficient and encourage others to do the same because there is nothing I hate more than having to be stranded and depend on someone else to come through only to disappoint me.  But don't get me wrong, where I'm unable to, I'm quick to ask for help. So school was forcibly/prematurely closed so i've been bored outta my mind.  But then I thought "hmm i like clothes. Why don't I get a little creative to pass the time" and got to it. Yesterday I came up with this little number Made the crop top out of a p...
