Limitless Gratitude

Image
Ayeeeee!!! It’s the last post for the year 2020! Can we stand and give Limitless a round of applause?😂  Looking back, it’s been a good time coming. Limitless is really a place to be. I mean, I’ve been an avid reader too.😌 I woke up with the feel of dry air in my nostrils and on my  lips. Harmattan has finally decided to rear up its head, not like I was anticipating but, it’s part of the season you know. So, tell me in the comment section, how did your Christmas go? How many pieces of chicken did you eat? Did you go out to chill or you just stayed in bed and pressed phone all day? Mine was not so bad. I went out in the morning and had a full rest when I got back. That’s bliss to me.😁 Consequently, this is the time for us to really sit back and chillax . It’s just 5 days to 2021. Let’s be thankful for all we have right now. Let’s not brood too much about things we lost, rather, let us be hopeful for better days. We’ve done well. We are stronger despite the highs and the lows.

Helloooo Limitless Family! Welcome to your favorite blog! It’s Christmas season.😭💃 I see all the Santa and  Christmas trees already. Wahala for Satan wey no get birthday o 😂.  This post is specially for couples who are thinking of places to go this season. Andddd if you are single, don’t fret! Nothing spoil🤣. You could go to these places with a friend, family or alone. So, let’s dive in.  1. Restaurant Date  This is one of the most popular if not the most popular. But who cares? As long as it’s with the love of your life, it’s you and them against the world baby! I’m sure if you check google, you would find very nice restaurants around you. 2. The Beach  I particularly love the feel of sand beneath my feet and the sound of tides clashing. Bliss. The beach is one place you should go with your partner. You could sit together, talk, play games, take pictures, run and so many fun things!  3. The Cinema  Go see a movie with your boo! You would enjoy it I promise. The sweet popcorn is a

Welcome to Limitless! The story you are about to read is fiction. Wait, what? I jolted out of my sleep as the strawberry fragrance of my bath soap reached my nostrils. I thought I was dreaming, why can I still perceive this fragrance in real life? I sat up and heard the shower running.  Oh! That must be my annoying roommate, she probably bought the same soap. She came out of the bathroom and I was shocked by what I saw. Isn’t that my towel? I looked up to where I hung mine but it wasn’t there. I stood up to check outside, maybe I forgot to bring it inside in the afternoon. To my disbelief, the towel was nowhere to be found! I entered my room again and just stood by the door trying to sum up what was going on.  “Oh, Kike, I quickly used your towel and soap because mine is in Lola’s room downstairs,” she said with no remorse.  What did I just hear? “What?! You didn’t use just my towel, you even used my soap. Are you crazy or what?” I replied with growing fury.  “Ahnahnn, why are you scre

Good deeds

  Welcome to Limitless!  While I was in the university, I was in a particular hall of residence that the porters and hall administrator used to dash students demerit points anyhow.  Demerit points are points you get when you break a rule. For instance, if you are caught playing very loud secular music on Sabbath day, you would be given 20 demerit points. You get the idea?  Adding to that, if you get up to 60 demerit points, you’d face the hall disciplinary panel. Forty (40) was even the maximum in that hall. (Shaking my head🙄) So, there was this time I stabbed a day in spirikoko (spiritual week of prayer). That’s 20 demerit points because I didn’t sign. Again, in that particular hall, it’s two weeks you would use to clear 20 points.*rolls eyes again*. Meanwhile, it’s just two days in some other halls.  Well, they gave me bathroom duty💔😂. Public bathroom o. I was already thinking of my life and why I came to the stupid hall. One dead voice in my head was shouting “you go scrub scrub,

Overwhelmed

Image
  Shaken, confused, hurt, stressed. You let your walls down and they showed you a million reasons you shouldn’t have. You feel like the whole world is against you, you are irked at the sight of your trigger.  Everything’s overwhelming. You start asking yourself questions about what exactly you are doing. Staggering and pondering, you wonder if really there’s light at the end of the tunnel.  You feel resentful, or maybe angry.  Hey, you are not alone.  Trust me, it will get better.  This is a reminder that you are enough.  Till next Saturday. Bye. ❤️

Feyinti: The Finale

Image
W elcome to Limitless! This is the final episode of the Feyinti Series.  Did I hear right? Did I just hear this guy say baby? I closed my eyes and calmed myself.  “How are you doing?” he asked again much to my annoyance. “How am I doing? Are you really asking how I’m doing after the stunt you pulled? Make it make sense Jide,” I started to wonder what game he was trying to play. “Care to explain what you posted on your WhatsApp status?” I spat out.  Then, he answered, “Oh, what did you see?” At that point, it was like cold water and fire right in my chest and belly. I was getting really infuriated. “Are you seriously playing dumb right now? Was it your ghost that posted happy 20 years anniversary or whatever?”  “You are exaggerating! It’s just 6 months. It’s not like I deprived you of love or anything you wanted during those 6 months. I mean, you didn’t exactly notice. So, why are you so pressed?” Immediately Wunmi heard this because the phone was on loudspeaker, she just put her hands

The Undoing

Welcome to Limitless! This is the third part of ‘The Feyinti Series’.  It’s been three weeks since Jide pulled his ‘peace offering’ stunt. That day was the last day we had an actual conversation. He has been so distant. Meanwhile, Alex and I have been growing closer. I just love his vibe because we connect on so many levels. We had exchanged numbers about two weeks ago. He makes me laugh so much and he is just the sweetest. I had not gone out with him yet, not that he didn’t ask but I just felt like I couldn’t do it since I was in a relationship. Wait what? I choked on the water I was drinking and shifted my gaze to the wall in front of me. I blinked twice to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating.  ‘Happy 6 months anniversary LOML’ was the caption at the bottom of my boyfriend’s post. 6 freaking months! He was facing the camera with a grin while a girl’s hands were wrapped around his neck with her back to the camera. I could only see her wig and earrings coupled with Jide’s wide smile. The

Feyinti’s Choice

  Welcome to Limitless!  This is the second part of Feyinti’s Dilemma. Enjoy❤️ “Hey, thanks so much for offering to give me a lift” I said in a very enthusiastic voice. “It’s no problem! I’m Alex and where do I drop you?” He replied gingerly. “I’m Feyinti and I live in the estate just after this street, Hope that’s your route too” I asked. “No Feyinti but I don’t mind dropping you off if you don’t mind” He replied with a hint of care in his voice. “Oh! Thanks, I would love that since it’s even raining.” “Is that Asa I hear?” I asked as I heard the soft music playing. “Of course! I love her music so much.” He answered “Wait what? No freaking way, I love her tooo, I mean, her voice is so soothing! Have you listened to Lucid?...” We kept on talking about our tastes in music, our side hustles, the schools we attend.  I was surprised at how we could say so much within five minutes. The way we instantly clicked was a mystery. He was so cool with a different kind of energy. Plus I love anyone

Feyinti’s Dilemma

Welcome to Limitless!  The story you are about to read is fiction. Enjoy❤️ I closed my eyes and stood with my hands wrapped around my stomach. The cold shower was doing a good job in keeping my mind engaged. Memories of when I first met him started playing out. I still remember it like yesterday. He was a new student in my secondary school.  I had heard of a new student being in school the day before and how girls were fawning over him but I paid no attention. Seeing him on the assembly ground the next day made all sorts of feelings start running through me. Immediately our eyes met, I felt a very loud thump in my chest. My heart was racing and I could feel my palms getting colder. I had never felt that way towards any guy. He was wearing jean trousers, a white t-shirt and a red jacket because he had not yet collected his uniform. He was so handsome, in fact, the most handsome boy I had ever seen. I had to take my eyes off him when I saw that he caught me staring again.  We were in SSS

The Opposite of Love

Image
Hello guysssssss!!! Welcome back to Limitless! Whoosh! These past two weeks has been a rollercoaster of emotions. I didn’t publish an article last week because I was just too sad and angry at everything that has been happening. It started with a clamor for change. The cry for an end to police brutality transitioning into a call for accountability. It’s so unfortunate that we got bullets and indifference in return.  The Lekki Massacre is still something I think about, and try to reason why some group of individuals would want to harm people. The heart of man indeed is desperately wicked. I mean, you didn’t spray water on them even if you wanted to be mean. Live rounds of bullets! Wickedness. We can never forget! 20th October, 2020! Then, the President came to speak and showed no empathy or acknowledgement for the lives that were lost at the Lekki Toll Gate? A democratic government indeed. Today, let’s talk about the opposite of love. I’m sure you are already wondering what else the oppo
