Imagine a world without music. ( General bants 1)

 WHAT WILL A NON MUSICAL SOCIETY BE LIKE?

Hey, my new post came into my head earlier than I expected. So here I am  trying my best to blog in the most grammar friendly way possible. 

The topic yeah? Okay let us get to it, music for me and I expect, many others has always been my  personal  fortress of solitude ( forgive my bad superman pun will ya) I love every genre and I always love the immersive power of certain voices. Needless to say I tried singing once or twice, who am I kidding? I sang a whole  lot of bread dough, I even formed a rap band in high school. We were called one drop, I sang love songs, afrobeats,I even tried soul. 

The point is I came out of that phase respecting musicians and the work they put into making their music. That's why no matter how bad the music may seem I listen because I have been there and tried to do that. Now imagine a world without those loud,sultry,lusty sounds accompanied by the quick and funky beats and strings. 

At that time I will just wish to be dead, because there is no world without music, this fact doesn't even come to many until they think about it. 

Even in an apocalypse there will still be music I tell you for sure, the music industry is one filled with the most brilliant and creative people ever to walk the face of the earth, imagine putting together a 20-song album. Featuring absolutely nobody! Two young Nigerian artists have done it. 

Then the jazz bands and live music, that feeling of a low bass  saxophone rumbling like muted thunder and the drums slowly tapping with  the piano churning out a simple rythm to it.even the clinking of glasses and slurred chatter at such events add to the whole musical feeling.

Music is God's second gift to men after life.

Once again I ask, imagine a world without music?

 Meanwhile in my next post I will be  writing on  my top 10 musicians (global) 

Till then,

                                             Stay dorky.

Has it actually been a year?!

Time has this uncanny ability to slip through our fingers like sand, doesn't it? It's been eons since my last blog post, and oh, how the world has spun in that time. Theories were tested, boundaries were broken, and I've found myself on a rollercoaster ride through the complexities of teenage and young adult life. Let's start with the university grind. Balancing academics, social life, and personal well-being is a lot. Choosing what to eat can feel like a monumental decision in itself, not to trivialize anyone's experience. But hey, that's the whole model of our blog, right? So, let's dive in. Finding that elusive balance in university life is key to making the most out of it. Maximizing the measly 24 hours we're given (seriously, can we get an upgrade on that?) is a daily struggle, and I've learned this the hard way. The best advice I can offer is to just do it and make every moment count. Now, onto the lighter stuff. Late last year, I decided to gi

Welcome back to NaijaCollegeDork Romance. Last time, we left off with me caught in the emotional whirlwind with Oo. But things took a turn when I met K. It all started with a glance across the room. K"s smile was like sunshine, and I couldn't resist the urge to talk to her. But my approach wasn't smooth; I stumbled over my words and probably came off as more of a flirt than I intended. Despite my initial charm, I struggled to maintain a genuine connection with K. She noticed my inconsistency and lack of depth, calling me out on my behavior. For instance, there was a time when she was going through a tough time with her family, and instead of being there for her, I brushed it off with a joke and changed the subject. Our relationship felt like one of Bnxn"s tunes: upbeat and catchy on the surface, but with deeper layers of emotion and struggle underneath. There were moments of joy and laughter, but also moments of doubt and confusion. Our relationship was a rollercoaste

 Hey guys. Now we’re going to veer off a bit off the regular romance and comedy and interviews to do a one-off special.   It's not the usual path,  but hey,  who says creativity needs to be confined.  Today,  we're diving headfirst into... my poetry!  Buckle up,  because this isn’t the usual blog fare. I love penning down feelings other than blurting them out, and the feelings can be anything; growing old, being cold, even the good old mold on bread. You saw what I did there? 🐸.  Without much dillydallying, let’s proceed.  MEADOWS by Olajuwon olaleye  One day, our smiles will leave our faces One day, we will stare with empty gazes With the absence of familiar faces, Leaving us to fix our longing gazes Right where the cattle grazes.  Life with a smile by Olaleye Olajuwon  From the high grounds to the lowlands I have never had a mediocre encounter Approach life with a smile,don’t engage in the banter  Your demons are what you allow to be stronger  Than the multiple lives you hav
