What I Love About You

Hello guys! How are ya’ll doing? Missed me? Ok…it was worth a shot anyway. Hehe! I thought I should pop by before the month ends and do one more post for the road. I got some good news people! Google would like to make you a Certified in Online Basics. And I will be doing a post about that sometime soon. So just stay reading so that the good stuff doesn’t pass you by :)

I got more good news (I am full of them today, aren’t I?) hehe. My sister (the younger twin), the one I talked about in this post here has moved back to Nairobi! Yeey! Oh my, come to think about it, this is good news and bad news. Why bad, you may ask. Because this means that I will now be permanently relegated to my third wheel status when it comes to hanging out with my sisters. I could handle it when she visited for a couple of days at a time but now so help me…

Pretty much what I wear :)

However, looking at the good side of that is we can now see her often. But apart from that, of all of the three girls myself included, this particular sister of mine is the one who is more in tune with her feminine inside! She is the one with the highest number of handbags, heels and dresses. Heck, she needs a room for her shoes! The other twin comes a close second while I am the one who just gets by. LOL, you know, throw in a pair of Ol’ schools, a tech tee and jeans and I am good to go. However, I do try on the hair and ‘make-up’ bit. They say the fact that I do IT may have messed with my brain somehow. So it is her hope that because she has moved closer home, some of her glitz and glamour would rub off on me.

LOL mum, ILY too

Just the other day, my cousin who is home for the holidays, texted me to inquire about whether she could come for a visit before schools reopened. And after reading her text, I couldn’t help but burst into laughter. I passed the phone over to the rest of my family as they were more than curious to know why I was laughing so loudly. And before long the whole house was in stitches.


Ok, right now i think you are thinking we are a mean bunch. But point of correction, we weren’t laughing at my cousin, we were laughing at ourselves! This is because we were just realizing that we were either getting too old or it’s the times that were changing and moving too fast for us to catch up with it. The text that she sent me was basically utilizing less than 20 characters but the amount of information that it carried was 200 characters worth!! Every word she wrote in that text was abbreviated into an acronym of some sort.
