My friends and I have been a bit confused for while. Well not necessarily confused,
please, confused is a big word
but have looked at our futures and our possible journeys to achieve our goals through translucent lenses for the longest. We don’t really know what exactly it is that we want or how to get there but we’ve just always known that whatever it is that we do has to make us happy and be able to provide for our needs and wants.
We’ve all had a few ideas but they really didn’t seem feasible. We thought, and some of us actually lowkey still think,
I am some of us, some of us is me💀
that our dreams and our aspirations are too big. But as Little Simz and Obongjayaar said, point and kill.

Well guys I’m just really happy to tell you that a few of them have had random and less random epiphanies and inspiration on what they’re going to be doing for possibly their lives!!!! I’ve been so excited the last few months just chilling and day dreaming about how happy and successful my friends are going to be and now I can shut up so you guys listen to me (or read me rather🤭) blab about it.
Vivian the Charity Baddie
Vivian has been my very good friend for about four years now. She’s really into self development and self help. She’s all for the growth and healing and becoming a better version of yourself.
As crazy as it sounds, not everyone has that luxury. So one day, we were in the library studying and she almost jumped off her seat. I then asked what happened because she’d startled the shit out of me. Then she said she had an epiphany. She wants to help people be better. Be more educated, know themselves more, understand others more, recognize, accept, and work through the flaws and differences in their lives and the lives of others. Then she said she wants it to be a free thing that any person at all could have access to and I thought that was just absolutely brilliant.
She hasn’t completely worked through the how’s and the when’s yet but at least she has a vision and that’s what’s most important.
Side bar: I just found out that this song is an actual song and it’s not just a tiktok sound😂.
Ehn, thank you, I know, I’m a mumu, but still😂 I could have actually just Shazammed it😂. Anyway, stream Brazy today.
Ope of @opes.shelf
Ope is probably the biggest bibliophile I know
(well maybe after Adaeze, that babe is next level😭😂).
She absolutely and thoroughly loves books. Left to her, she’d just read all the days of her life till she can’t read anymore, which is probably impossible.
We’ve been friends since our very first exam paper in uni and we’re big IP enthusiasts. Lately, she’s been second guessing IP law and just the legal profession as a whole and it’s been really hard for her.
We had a webinar last week
which i anchored🙈
and the speaker asked us to open google and type what we’re most passionate about and then type “and IP”. That’s how she discovered copyright law. She always knew what it was but just typing “books and IP” and seeing that made her so so happy. She also found out that most copyright lawyers are given a copy of the book that they’d be processing protection for and when I tell she was over the moon😭🤣. I’m just really happy for her honestly.
Jen the multi-talented Analyst
I love Jen, it’s low key so weird (she’ll read this thing now and her head will start swelling). Me and Jen have been through a lot of things together, the most prominent of our struggles is this daunting course we’re both studying, law.
Long before the rest of us knew that we could contemplate stuff, Jen has been contemplating this law.
I’m exaggerating, it kind of started during IT
I don’t entirely remember how, but she kind of discovered Business Analysis and fell in love with it. It makes her happy, it gives her good money and will give her good money. She has already told her parents that there’s no law school in her own picture sha and she’s going to be a Business Analyst and they’re good with it.
There’s nothing I love more than steps🥹. Baby steps, giant steps, just seen Jen takes steps towards her goal makes me so inspired and motivated.
Jen is also a content creator and she has spent the past few years perfecting her craft. What’s so exciting to me about her journey right now is that she has started earning for content creation and I absolutely LOVE IT. It’s not 7million but it will be soon.
I’m really super proud of her🙈
Love, Kevia
Love, Kevia. That may be familiar to you if you’ve ever come across styledbykevia
Well if you aren’t familiar, get familiar with it😡🤗
Kevs has been my friend for 10 years now, since we thought we knew shit but actually knew nothing.
She’s studying to be a doctor and she didn’t pick it for some sappy reason like her love for helping people or anything like that, it was more a bid to be as far from CU as possible and it won’t be too hard to do well because she was already good at biology and chemistry and things related to that.
They have this like mapped out educational trajectory in her home.
So it’s Linsy ➡️ Trinity ➡️ Covenant, but somehow the two girls escaped, now we’re in the same school…again🤭.
What she’s truly passionate about is fashion and beauty, to a fairly scary level. Her whole existence revolves around looking good smelling good, making sure her friends look good, sourcing affordable clothes from out of literal nowhere.
No fr, she’s literally tell you if you do this this and this, you can a dress that isn’t a skims knock off and isn’t from ohpolly but will still give you the fit and quality you want, and you’d most likely be very familiar with the site or store already so you’d just be wondering how tf she knows that.
Please she’s not vain or anything like that but you know when they say that someone knows their onions, her own onions is fashion and beauty. She started styledbykevia just for fun but lowkey to start building a styling portfolio and her fits are phenomenal. She knows a lot about color schemes and texture and stuff like that without doing research or actively learning about it.
One thing I really hope and pray for her is that she gets and takes all the opportunities she needs to be the biggest stylist ever, like bigger than Karen Binns.
she’ll now be giving us styling tips and wizkid and everybody will be jealous🤭
I don’t know but I just get this crazy flush of joy when I see my friends put themselves out there and do stuff. Especially now that we’re all unsure and uncertain. It’s good to see people close to me finding their way, it reminds me that it’s possible for me to find my way.
This was just a little self motivation piece because the way this internship applications are going ehn😭.
it will not be “> > >” in Jesus name😭😭
any way, I’m done motivating myself so I’m going to sleep. If you’re going through future related issues too, I hope this helped you out a bit in someway.
