Introducing Judith

 



AN INTRODUCTION...or maybe not๐Ÿ‘€


Heyyyy the name is Judith, pronounced as JU-dith not ju-DITH, It has been a lot of struggle getting people to pronounce it the right way. 
Anyway, I officially welcome you to my blog๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’•

 I love to think I'm mysterious, no, scratch that I am mostly mysterious๐Ÿ˜…but maybe just maybe this blog will be an insight into what goes on in my head. Interesting stuff I tell yah, but would it be interesting to you? I guess you'll have to follow me to find out.

Now this was meant to be an introduction about myself, but picture this, you're in front of an interviewer and he throws the question, 'Tell me about yourself' and you freeze up, That's exactly what it's like writing about myself and of course I could be mechanical about it but where's the fun in that?

Sooo, my name is Oluwafikayo Judith Adegoke, and some other names that I may or may not share along the way๐Ÿ˜ถ My current age "status"๐Ÿ˜‚ is getting old because tell me why yesterday I was shouting sweet sixteen and now I'm in my last teenage years๐Ÿ˜ญ It's fine though I guess we all have to grow up at one point or the other. I'm currently in my third year studying Law, Why Law? You may ask but omoo me sef no know.๐Ÿ˜ฉ But for someone who had two admissions into the course rest assured that I'm in God's plan and to be honest it's sometimes fun, if you stick with me you'll get more gist on what it's like and what it has been and hopefully what it will be.

Yeah, I am a Christian๐ŸŽ‰ and I don't mean Christianity as in religion but Christianity as in lifestyle, was born into it and grew up to love it. You'll most definitely be getting more on this topic because it's a whole lot and the beam of existence for some of us.

Family life? I am the third child of four children, two elder brothers I can bill and a younger sister who bills me (sigh๐Ÿ˜’). That's just official though, I have an adopted elder brother(lol๐Ÿ˜…) and my parents have always had people around for as long as I can remember, most times extended family members and of course, these people become close family members as well so it's a pretty big family.

There was a time when having hobbies was a thing, now this stage of my life just feels like academics and sleep anytime I get the chance away from books (this education thing has messed me up๐Ÿ˜”) I guess what I'm trying to say is my hobby presently is sleep๐Ÿ˜ญbut I had hobbies back in Secondary School.
 I loved writing stories, some I finished some I didn't. I could cook up a story on the spot and rarely had writer's block, never published any of them. I also loved reading novels and stories, I still do but not so frequently not only because of time but also because of how rated R most books are now, Why??? Whatever happened to morality? 
I loved singing too, in my head I sang like all the Disney and Nickelodeon characters who knew how to sing๐Ÿ˜… My brothers made sure to ring it in my head that I couldn't though, but I have a civil voice not good good but not bad either. 
Lastly, listening to music was a hobby but now it's a therapy. "Music is therapy"-Judith 2023๐Ÿ˜Œ

Once when I was giving my eldest brother a run down of my chaotic academic life he asked if I had a YouTube channel because according to him every law student in Nigeria should๐Ÿ˜‚ This is not YouTube neither is this vlogging but this could count for something I guess? That's not entirely the reason why I'm starting this blog though I guess it just feels nice to have a place where I can freely rant and let out all the opinions I have about things and life in general.

There goes our introduction, if you made it this far, you're my new favourite person. I hope you had a lovely time reading through 'cause I had an awesome time writing this! 
So long so good, see you at the next read.๐Ÿ’Œ

The Twentieth Floor

 I decided I was going to write a blog post to mark the end of an era and the beginning of another, but as I type this I have no words. Nothing comes to mind, but here I go anyway… It feels like just yesterday I was excited about turning thirteen. I think that was the very first birthday I was excited about. It felt so nice to finally be a teenager. I left the children’s church to the teen church, and I left Junior Secondary School for Senior Secondary School. The most interesting part was, I was towing a new path the ones before me didn’t tow. Judith decided to go to Art class to the “dismay” of the African parents’ stereotype. I think that was the first real decision that came with a battle that I ever took (big ups to my brother for fighting that battle with me๐Ÿซ‚).   I was not always the brightest of mind, but it felt like a new journey for me and I had the nudge to be among the best, if not the best.  I had always been a church girl but, my 13th year marked the b...

Though I Fall, I Will Rise Again

About Judith, he said: Let the beloved of the Lord rest secure in him, for he shields her all day long, and the one the Lord loves rests between his shoulders  This was not what I planned as my welcome back to blogging, but I’ve been so lax in writing that I’ll take anything I can get.  I recently posted on my WhatsApp status that one of Jesus’ hardest commandments is to “be anxious for nothing.” It logically does not make sense as humans that things are falling apart and there is a commandment to not be anxious. I just concluded the third year of my Law degree and I had high hopes going into the third year. I prayed, pulled down mountains (very essential๐Ÿ˜‚), and I was ready to conquer the world.  The first semester came, and yes, there were little hiccups here and there, but everything was still fine. I resumed for the second semester, and I remember I wrote a blog post on tenacity unknowing to me that I’d be taking my advice(such is life, innit?). The results for the fi...

From "No Strings Attached" to "Mind the Gossips"

“You don’t owe anyone anything” and “What will people think?” are two extreme ideologies that govern the decisions people make, and I’m here to find a middle ground. As human beings, we are social animals and we need the community to function. If we all live by the philosophy that we owe no one anything, then we can as well go back to the time before the state was created and everyone did as they liked, and maybe we will understand practically what Thomas Hobbes meant when he said the state of nature was solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short. I’m sure when we have ever said those words we didn’t see it as a big issue or a problem at all, but most of the issues we have as a nation or community stem from living by that ideology in the first place. The only reason a person will play loud music into the night despite knowing it disturbs others is because he doesn’t feel a need to consider how his actions affect others. The only reason why a person will choose to litter public spaces ste...
