What the caption says. I'm so sleepy. Even typing this now, I'm still sleepy. For my own good, immediately I get home, I should take a nap and just sleep. The interesting thing is, by the time I get home, I wouldn't want to sleep anymore. O chi’m. I will soon drop my phone on the floor.

I worked this weekend, this should be the second time because I don't remember reacting this way the first time. I can't even remember the first experience. Surprisingly, a lot of people came into the store on Sunday. That was surprising because I wouldn't exactly say Sunday is the day people would leave their house to come get drugs. But when you think about it, it makes sense, they're not working on Sundays, so why not?

I had to take a break and buy gum because I was actually beginning to see stars. As in, I would hold my phone and just doze off. People are actually used to this. The crazy thing is, there are some pharmacies where people work 12 hours everyday and it's normal. Someone was telling me that during his internship, he was working 10am - 9pm. Everyday.

I work 12 hours during the weekend alternatively, and it's really something. At the teaching hospital though, I know they have calls (you work 24 hours) and you get the next day off. So, once again, I guess I'm not used to it and this is just the beginning. I will report back after my next weekend shift, this weekend I'm free though (🤸🏾‍♀️). Once Friday reaches like this, movement.

The worst part of this shift is 1pm - 3:45pm, for some reason, time flies by really SLOWLY once it gets to 1pm.

I got wrapped up in work while typing yesterday and I forgot to update it. Anyways, the work day finally ended and I got home, I had to lie down for a while while waiting for my roommate to finish using the kitchen. It would be hell trying to cook with two people in the kitchen. I also had the bright idea to cook stew and omg, that took a while. I had to boil yam too.

Cooking in the morning before work is so hard. Mostly because I sleep late and trying to wake up by 5:30am is like telling myself I hate myself, and anything other than that, I get really anxious. I don't trust myself to start cooking by 6am and finish on time. Also, if I cook the previous day, I wouldn't want to eat it and flask food already tastes a bit funny. It keeps the food hot, but there's this particular taste food that's kept in a flask has.

Oh, yes. I didn't sleep when I got home yesterday, the sleep disappeared. I really can't wait for the weekend, I want to say I will sleep throughout Saturday but knowing myself, I probably wouldn't. I will just watch movies throughout. How I love doing nothing. I should actually get plenty of sleep though.

You guys, I was having a really shitty day, a “fuck this, I want to go home and not be a person right now” day. I wanted a hug, and I remembered that I had to reply my friend's email and while doing that, I was able to talk about how I was feeling and at the end, I was just like, “this isn't so bad after all and I want to be with this girl and I love her so much”. Long story short, I felt less like shit.

After that, I went to get something to eat because once again, I didn't wake up to cook. Shit is hard, bro. I had to call my friend, because I somehow thought my money was endless at the beginning of the month (still think so 🙈).

I went to get food from The Place and I was actually prepared to not like it, specifically the chicken. See, I hate fried things. I don't like eating them, mostly snacks (small chops and the likes). There's this nauseous after feeling I get and the smell of the oil always comes at me too much.

I don't normally experience that with chicken, but the one I got the last time was so crispy (?) and I had that nauseous feeling.

Today's own was good. In fact, I enjoyed it. I didn't think about cholesterol while eating it. There's this ad that comes to mind whenever I think about fried things and cholesterol. It's a Power Oil ad.

I was going to get their Asun rice, but I realised that I didn't care so much for it.

That's all that's happened to me so far, I'm still sleeping late and regretting my decision the next day, and you already know I'm still not used to cooking in the morning. Agh.

Apart from that and whatever I was feeling in the morning, I'm now chill. I'm a chill girl. I remember seeing TikToks about the Cannes festival and I can swear that they just did the festival recently. Either way, I now have more movies to watch whenever they're available. If they're ever available. I have to find out.

I paused after that to search, but the network is really bad, so I have no information. After this internship, whatever job I get, it has to be one where I don't have to deal with people everyday or one where I have to smile even though I don't want to. I would like to just do my job and go home.

Technically, this should be the start of this week's newsletter (it's a new week), but I really want to send out this newsletter today, so here we are. I'm currently at my aunty's house in Lekki, which is where I will be spending most of my free weekends. It's a chill place, it's nice being around family. We are preparing to go to church. I'm ready, but the rest of the household is not.

Yesterday, I made an interesting journey to the mainland to find what did not lost. Yes, that's an interesting way to put it, and it was so off putting that I couldn't even think about this newsletter or anything, to be very honest.

You people should put me in your prayers, so I can free myself from this curse. Or I will just break the curse. Either one. I'm tired. I just want to get to the point where this will just be a funny story to tell. In fact, I don't even want to remember it. Sigh, I'm just really tired of this situation and I want it to pass so bad.

I'm currently listening to Big Bum Bum by Kidd Carder (?) and Mavo on repeat. It's making me emotional, I just randomly start crying. It's not even that kind of song, there's this line that goes, “...body for ground, she go collect her money”, what does that even mean?

I just hate everything about this. I don't want to let this whole situation ruin this entire year for me, but it just doesn't want to stop. Like I said earlier, I will break this curse and I will be free. Very soon.

Anyways, I will start editing the newsletter now and you should get it by 12pm. You're already reading it now, so I guess I shouldn't have said that (🙈). Send a reply, boo. I always want to know what you're up to.

I'm currently reading Shigidi and the Brass Head of Obalufon by Wole Talabi, I don't know how I feel about this book tbh. The adventure bit hasn't started yet and it's just people thinking about sex or doing something similar, or someone's body.

There has been a brief talk about the adventure, there are two [relevant] characters so far; Shigidi and Nneoma. I can just feel that Nneoma is going to die at the end of the book. She will fall in love with the guy and sacrifice her life for him. Hopefully, it proves me wrong because I will be so disappointed.

I'm listening to the audiobook and reading the Ebook. The narrator is terrible. He isn't pronouncing certain words properly and it's just ruining the experience. Imagine saying ‘mumu’ as ‘moo-moo’. Say it properly. I don't know if there will be any scene where they speak Yoruba, I'm looking forward to seeing how he goes around that.

Anyways, I'm just 11% into the book, so we'll see. Today's Tuesday, 10:27am, I'm currently at work, so let's see how much I'm able to read before the end of the work day.

I'm 38% into the book and I don't think anything interesting has happened yet. I will finish the book today though, it's actually for a book club, the book review is today. So, I will be back with a review by Saturday.

I watched the worst movie in the world yesterday. Or maybe one of the worst, but it was terrible. The name's Whistle and I had no choice but to give it 0.5/5.0. It was so underwhelming and most of the things that happened didn't even make sense.

Euphoria season 3 is now ongoing and I've watched episode 1, episode 2 will be out today, but I will definitely watch it tomorrow. It's actually a lot different from the previous seasons and I'm really curious to see exactly what this season will be about.

A major shocker (or not) is the fact that Nate and Cassie are getting married (this is not a spoiler, it's in the trailer). How? How did their relationship even last this long? I need to confirm the time difference between high school and where they are now. Another shocker is the fact that Nate seems to like Cassie, as in, love her. This wasn't how they were in the beginning. It's cute sha, I knew Nate had some good in him (🙈).

Also. ALSO! FROM season 3 will be out today! I'm so excited.

Thank you for reading and as always, don't forget to subscribe (if you're reading from your browser, you're most likely not) and share the newsletter.

See you on Saturday (25th), bye x. 💕

Also, yes, casualties can arise from the treatment (side effects), but the way they said it, it's like the doctors and pharmacists are giving you the drug because they want to kill you. A lot of things were said, I can't even—
