Old Spice – New Spice

Artist: Dimitra Milan I swear by the nothingness of space, that this is nothing but my undiluted thoughts towards the now trendy old/young love. I feel the need to explain the idea behind The Drunken Writer; it’s a way, an avenue to share my thoughts, experiences and book/life lessons creatively – (while blowing off steam) So back to the order

It’s Tiring “Becoming” Nigerian

For the life of me, I can’t go back to bed anymore. Its 4:41a.m. but what troubles me, is more than the nightmare I was just having, it’s more about Nigeria in the news.

Feminism and Bey

I’m so happy to be back after so many months, mostly because of procrastination but also because of life challenges. Before I stop digressing, I want to talk about the homecoming video.

These days, self-happiness is way too over exaggerated, that it’s becoming to sound a lot more like selfishness.   Disregard any abnormal interpretation, I’m explaining from the most humane side of me.    Writing this was solely triggered after I had experienced incessant promises and pledges of “I can make you happy”, “let me make you happy”.
