I am not sure if this post is meant to rejuvenate my blog, but as far as I’m concerned, I’ve had freer days and I will resume posting as it applies :-) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi guysssss!</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A lot of people were not aware that I had been in graduate school since August of 2017– a part of my life I chose to keep from social media for personal reasons. I find it comical when people message me saying how they never imagined me being in school "all this while", lol, as per Instagram content. With working full-time, schooling full-time and maintaining clinical/rotation obligations, I am thankful to have remained sane enough to share this with you today.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My journey to conferring my Family Nurse Practitioner degree started many years ago, leading up to when I enrolled as an undergrad in nursing school in 2010, and to working my first nursing job in 2014. August 2017, I called Ella (who was a travel nurse at the time) to enroll in the same school as me, and within a couple weeks, our lives changed. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The YouTube channel I created didn’t take off like I’d hoped because I couldn’t spare extra time creating content. I also could not travel as much as I liked, and I subconsciously lost interest in building new relationships. It was certainly not a rosy journey, but I aligned my chakras along the way and remained thankful. I knew the program was doable; I also knew that I had to sacrifice a lot, but I had my fears. </div>

I know this viral pandemic has caused so many limitations (that includes my graduation commencement and party). I cannot say what I want to do with my free time for now, besides studying for Boards [and maybe work on and publish old vlogs], but I am loving it!</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Resurrection University “pushed” back the semester by a week to today, to allow students and teachers time to complete course/clinical work delayed during social distancing enforcement. Original commencement date was set for April 18th, 2020 (I had cleared all coursework prior).</div>

I still work full-time at my Trauma hospital and continue to care for COVID patients. It has affected my mental health in a way-- but that is story for another day.</div>

This journal entry of mine, in a way, will allow me revisit this post in the future, and maybe give hope to the budding nurse. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There’s no telling if I’d pursue a Doctorate in the future.<br />

If anyone has certain questions regarding this program, please do not hesitate to send me an email. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi guys.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first part of my long-awaited vlog (per my family and friends) is finally here!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I traveled to Morocco in April and visited 4 cities— Casablanca, Marrakech, Fes, and Chefchaouen. I cannot begin to describe how wonderful my experience was! Though I really hoped to visit the Sahara Dessert— to finally see a place I have heard my whole life— there was time constraint, and so I plan to return in the nearest future.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first part of the vlog highlights Ella and I's run-around in Casablanca after arriving and realizing I had forgotten my wig [lol]. I had looks I wanted to shoot with, but that couldn’t happen, and so my Airbnb host, Cristina took usI to the “African market” where a quick wig was made for me. After that, we strolled through the Medina, visited the courthouse, Hassan II Mosque, and ended the night with a lovely dinner at Rick’s Cafe. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The following morning, Cristina’s driver took us to the train station where we caught a 4-hour ONCF train ride to Marrakech. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have attached a screenshot of the travel itinerary I made since most people asked how I knew how to navigate between cities. I researched.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; text-align: start; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> This is my first vlog/video of the year and while it was put out later than anticipated, I would like to point out that a lot of activities were not filmed because I wanted to have fun and explore the city I had been away from for 11 years.
So I decided to visit Lagos because why not? I'd put off this trip for years and after I got the green light from work (early November), I planned my two-weeks vaca. I wasn't very courageous with the thought of traveling by myself. And since I didn't want my movement to be restricted, I chose not to stay with extended family as families tend to worry a lot- as they should.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let me tell you that it was somewhat nerve-wrecking knowing that I would be in a hotel by myself, as I'd hoped<span style="font-family: inherit;"> and prayed no one observed and set me up or something (I've seen movies and read stories, OK? Lol). I lodged at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Victoria Island. Security was on point.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did a lot of meet-ups with friends including those I hadn't seen in years; folks from America, and those I met within a short period. Getting from point A to B via Uber was very convenient. I spent most of my time on the island because everything was within close proximity. I got to party like a Lagosian (sort of), but I could only hang briefly because illness set in. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I wasn't dining at the hotel, I visited Utopia, Kilimanjaro, and The Place. I also ate once at White House restaurant in Yaba.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As far as clubbing went, I partied at Club 57, DNA, Quilox, Escape, and SIP.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Watch the recap below:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're new to this, <span style="color: #274e13;">Current Faves</span> are list of songs that I like and compile to share with Nigerian/African music lovers alike. This is done monthly as songs are released, or as soon as I get wind of them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some of the songs on this list are shaku shaku-inspired. "Shaku shaku" is a new dance craze in Nigeria!</div>

<div align="center">
<span style="text-align: left;">As most of you know, a lot of (Nigerian) songs were released this month, perhaps in anticipation for the festive season. Unlike the usual, a lot of them were actually very pleasant to listen to.</span></div>

<b><br /></b></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
Olamide- <b>Eminimomi</b></div>
<div align="center">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="color: blue;">I am still warming up to these:</span></div>
<div align="center">
Wizkid x Mut4y- <b>Manya</b></div>
<div align="center">
Rudeboy- <b>Fire Fire</b></div>
<div align="center">
Dice Alies- <b>Otedola</b></div>
<div align="center">
Tekno- <b>Mama</b> ft. Wizkid</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Did your favorites make my list?<br />
<br />
<br />
If it's your first time here, welcome! I started this series over the summer per the request of some of my Snapchat followers who asked me to share my music playlist; and so I have decided to do so monthly.</div>

This trip took place in July. I went with my friend, Ella.<br />
It was our first time on the island and we enjoyed every bit of it, especially towards the end. We were there for 4nights. <br />
We lodged at Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall (very exquisite).<br />
We visited Mystic Mountain where we went on activities such as the sky explorer, bobsled, zip-lines; we also went to Dunn's Riverfall on the excursion. <br />
We got to witness the annual sumfest which was huge!<br />
Towards the end, we visited the locals; ate proper jerk chicken and went to Pier 1 for a karaoke night.<br />

Enjoy.<br />

Hey, loves!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Guess who's on YouTube? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's right. Me! **Yayy**<br />
So yeah, I finally got back on yesterday, May 1st. Some of you may know that I used to have a channel. As a matter of fact, I had two.<br />
The first one was in 2009, and the second in 2012. Third time the charm, right?<br />
<br />
My channel will consists of vlogs and sit-down videos. The only thing with my vlogs is that they'll be missing monologues, unless I have to explain certain situations or an impending situation.<br />
I'll vlog events/activities/adventures/travels.<br />
<br />
Do check out my first video. I tried with this editing stuff, eh?<br />
<br />
