My name is CAT

-


My name is Catherine and I turn 30 today. I live with my mum who is a divorcee. She just ended her marriage to my Dad the second time few months ago. I'm left with her being a pain in my behind till ‘’I find my hero’’, she said the day she pulled up with her luggage in front of my door unannounced.

It’s mid-day already and everyone at work had said happy birthday with different looks on their faces. Some had the ‘’I wish you all the best and a genuinely happy life’’ look, some had the ‘’30 and yet no man’’ look, the rest had the ‘’where is the party at’’ look but couldn't really say because I had not celebrated my birthday since I turned 25.


Well my life is pretty boring and I can’t wait to leave work and go home to my bed in peace. I stroked out the peace remembering my mother was home with me and the fact that she could bring back one of her supposedly ‘’HOT’’ DATES home today was not entirely out of the picture. 

My night is ruined again on my birthday.
My phone buzzes and it’s my elder sister Elle, such a sweet soul. Married to an incredible guy. 
Matthew is the love of her life and her only boyfriend turned husband. They met while in school and they clicked the instant they went on their first date. The rest was history because I couldn't hear the last of their ‘’sexscapades’’.  He proposed to her once he got his first job and has not failed to take care of her since then. My sister is indeed very lucky. I can’t say so for myself.


‘’Hi E'm,
‘’Happy birthday Cat, look through the window’’
I look down and my dear Emily is waving happily with a cake that has 30 boldly designed on it.
My life is ruined, now everyone in the building will know I'm old.

I beckon on her to come up and quickly arrange the pile of papers on my desk. A quick look on my little pocket mirror says I'm nothing close to being the celebrant.
E'm comes up with my cake and every one is cheering and  awing at such yellow and black nonsense that reminds me of my age. Who told her I love yellow, maybe black.

''I'm taking you out for drinks tonight and please don’t say no. 
Well I said NO before she finished. I'm in no mood to go out. After much persuasion I finally agreed. It was better than going home to hear sex moans from my mum’s room which was just next to mine.

5 Ways To Get Out Of A BAD Mood

-

We sometimes get into a really bad mood either after having a conversation that didn’t end well, a work meeting that ended on a sour note, a bad hair or dress day or even having a bad mood that you have no clue at the moment as to why you feel so moody or sad.  These feelings can longer and end up ruining the whole day and disrupting a great opportunity for us to live this wonderful life. After the words “Once today goes by, you can NEVER get it back” sank deep into my consciousness and even my sub-consciousness, I take the most of each day and try to enjoy this life.  So here are my 5 ways to snap out  of a bad mode quickly.  1) Acknowledge the reason that put you in a bad mood. Now this is not the time to address it. It’s just for you to recognize that you are in a bad mood and what is causing it.  2) Change environment. Stepping away from the surrounding or change of scenery is the next best step to take if you want to get out of a bad mood. Remaining at the ...

The War Within

The brown rusty leaves rolled over her legs as she sat helpless on the grass. The park was sparsely populated which made it very easy to stay unnoticed. Lifting her head, struggling to see through the heavy clog of tears welling up in her eyes. The day was getting dark, darkness has become her place of solace. She kept a steady gaze at the kids running freely, playing catch while she battled with the decision of either staying back or going home. Home? That house didn’t feel like home and it hasn’t felt like home in a long while. The mind drifted to when she was a child with little or nothing contending for space or attention in her head except for love and the ‘’can do spirit’’, which spurred her to fly without wings and run without shoes to distances that were unimaginable. She lived as free as the wind and that was the bliss of childhood which she fought to get rid of and step into adult shoes. Since stepping into those overly talked about shoes, its been filled with ...

ARE YOU READY 😇😇😇

Recently I just discovered something about relationships. It had not really occured to me but I started noticing it lately and I just had to address it. The way people take relationship these days is so baffling. They wake up one morning and out of nowhere they want to be in a relationship. (like it's a child's play or it's worth nothing). The way people prepare for marriage should be the way they should prepare for relationships, since its the first step to marriage. In my own opinion, marriage and relationships are basically the same thing except for the intimacy/sex (which happens in most relationships now and that does not mean it's right) and the blessings from a Priest. The other things are basically the same thing. Being in a relationship entails so much. It's not just a fling, hearts are involved, emotions, ideas, sharing of visions and goals. People in relationships virtually plan their lives together and impact each other directly or indirectly. Am ju...
