The Night I got Robbed…
from » ‎ Carpe Diem

Tags: [edit]

On the 22nd of January, at around 8pm along Yusuf Lule Road, just before the signpost that says ‘Yusuf Lule Rd’ I got robbed. Amidst bumper-to-bumper traffic, I was seated in the driver’s seat. My cousin was in the passenger’s seat. We were coming from her place in Kololo heading to Garden City when the [...] Read Full Post

Wishing for a little more ‘love thy neighbor as you love yourself’
from » ‎ Carpe Diem

Tags: [edit]

Lately I’ve been having a lot of saddening experiences. Every time I think of our nation and our people, it makes me sad. I am not angry, and I am not necessarily losing hope either but there’s a melancholic feeling that engulfs me when I think of where we might be headed if we keep [...] Read Full Post

Operation: Get my stuff right
from » ‎ Carpe Diem

Tags: [edit]

Hello peoples! I am really not good at this writing thing anymore… I think it has to do with the fact that I am not in school anymore and the literary phase is slowly passing but I pray it never really goes away. I remember when all I wanted to do was sit down and [...] Read Full Post

Shalom Brethren and Sistren! In my last post, I was a little upset, a little down and a little depressed and yes, I admit, I was a little angry. But today, when I woke up, I had a great feeling that everything was going to work out the way God intended everything to work out. [...] Read Full Post

Be Still…
from » ‎ Carpe Diem

Tags: [edit]

I am listening to that Kirk Franklin & Toby Mac song and I am fighting so hard to be still… and know that He is God. Yes I know deep inside that He is God but why is the being still so hard? I am tired. I am confused, I don’t want to face anyone [...] Read Full Post

So, I lost my password again… what else is new? LoL for some reason I haven’t tried to figure out how to personalize passwords on this wordpress thing and yet I insist on sticking with this very blog just because… well because blogger had its time and now there’s tweeter or twitter (that’s how much [...] Read Full Post

Waging War
from » ‎ Carpe Diem

Tags: [edit]

On my way back home from the hair salon, one of my favorite songs of the year played on Power Fm (104.1). It is called waging war by Cece Winans. I love this song so much for so many reasons… for one, I am tired of the devil stealing from me and so in recognition [...] Read Full Post

I once wrote this. . . “I have dreamt all my life for that one person that God made for me and when I do find him, it won’t be that easy to get away from me. I can tell you that much. Imagine that, for every one of us, God made a person who [...] Read Full Post

Tags: [edit]

Now that I am semi assured that there is joy and life ahead, I may start blogging as I so promised myself LAST YEAR. How bad are all these resolution thingies? I won’t even go into how I ended up neglecting this space for more than six months but suffice it to say that forgetting [...] Read Full Post

and boy has it been quite a journey… right at this moment i am engaged, frustrated (this has nothing to do wtih being engaged) annoyed, feeling a bit useless and not really achieving all the things that i thought i could have achieved by this time. Right now i am tired of hearing from so many [...] Read Full Post

I have a stalker… and it’s getting on my nerves. He is not per se the freaky kind that hides in bushes and all that but he somehow managed to get my number and texts me incessantly. I love my phone, I love receiving texts (FROM PEOPLE I KNOW AND WANT TO HEAR FROM). So [...] Read Full Post

Change is good?

Tags: [edit]

It is burning hot in this country. Wait, I should rephrase that, Kampala is incredibly hot! My usual car (the one that is now in my names, is in the garage) is a safe haven… but it’s gone from me for a while. While I am eternally grateful to my aunt for lending me hers [...] Read Full Post

Tags: [edit]

Just when I was getting round to coming up with a somewhat decent review of the Lanterns poetry reading that took place all of three weeks ago, something else happened that made me rethink even posting my thoughts and suggestions. See, I strolled over to Carlo’s which is not unusual as hers is the first blog [...] Read Full Post

Imma be okay… la la la

Tags: [edit]

There’s a song that goes something like that and it just popped into my head. Not that i am in some kind of deathly traumatizing moment of my life but it seemed evident now more than before that i will be okay. It’s just that sometimes there are slumps and humps in the road but that [...] Read Full Post

Sometimes things have to get worse before they get better… Really?
from » ‎ Carpe Diem

Tags: [edit]

I hate being sick. That’s a dumb statement to utter. No one could possibly like being sick… at least no one I know enjoys the discomfort of an enlarged tonsil to the size of a golf ball. Or the dizzy spells that decide to come upon one when they’re in traffic and there’s a million [...] Read Full Post

I met someone that makes me shy again. I met someone that makes me smile hopelessly. Is it wrong to want to be young and carefree and smile without cause? … and they don’t know it but they evoke in me sentiments that i have dearly missed. I wonder if this much thought ought to be put into something that [...] Read Full Post

Tags: [edit]

So I am fogging up my reading glasses again. It just makes me smile to see the world in a haze. Does that make me slightly crazy? Today i struggled to wake up, like most other days. I don’t think I was actually ever a morning person. I like to work late into the night but [...] Read Full Post

De-Sony-fying myself
from » ‎ Carpe Diem

Tags: [edit]

Have you ever tried fogging up your reading glasses with say the steam from your hot cup of tea or coffee? I just did and it is an interesting outlook… yes, I am bored at work despite the piles of things to get done that won’t be done because they’re awaiting approval. I sometimes wish I [...] Read Full Post

I had a good night last night. The concert wasn’t as great as the UB40 one a couple of months ago but that Dj Benny D really knows how to get a crowd moving (well, me being the crowd in this case because I couldn’t care less what everyone else was doing). Here are the few [...] Read Full Post

Is there a song that goes ‘Just shoot me now’ ??? or has something to do with being dead and not feeling things? Well if it exists, let me know so that I can prepare to make it my soundtrack for the last two weeks. The way I have been feeling is inexplicable. I have [...] Read Full Post

There is an auto-cade of about fifteen cars right outside my office building and they are all hooting and making me extremely annoyed. The truck is blasting music really loudly!!! They are advertising/promoting for an upcoming event, Oluwombo. The sad part is that they just docked in next door (i work next to a radio station’s [...] Read Full Post

I woke up this morning thinking it’d be like yesterday. Yesterday was a good day. I came to work relatively early, I felt nice in the clothes I was wearing, I got some work done before two friends came by. We had lunch and i laughed so hard at one of my friend’s jokes. Apparently [...] Read Full Post

Weddings have become a colloquial trend in Kampala these last couple of years. In fact, they are now my personal, regular proggie. I love weddings and I am a firm believer in the institution of marriage. For someone who doesn’t particularly like dealing with people in general, I enjoy sharing a table with strangers and [...] Read Full Post
