2021: Living!

Happy new year my amazing people! A girl is back and ready to mingle! I did not realize how much I have missed writing my blog posts until now, in this moment. I am so pumped and excited and can not wait for the exciting things that will come my way this year. I had to take time off because of school in all honesty. It was too much in November and most of December but I have come to a conclusion that medicine will not finish me, I will only crush it.

My friend, Temitope, never gets the excitement around a new year because it is simply the next day but I like to think that humans like order and time frames and all of these constructs because it makes things easier in some way. Humans are generally pattern seeking creatures. I am super grateful for the past year because I learnt to be more confident about my stance on certain issues especially things that are not the societal norm.  I also realized that I have amazing people in my corner and I am learning not to take them for granted.

This year is going to be amazing because God has said so and I am going to chop life this year. We all know setting your goals is easier said than done but I want to remind you to live! There will definitely be work and things you want to achieve but this is me telling you to enjoy your journey because it is all part of your process. Shoot that shot, apply for that job, attend that concert (post- COVID of course), attend that church service, whatever you are doing just never forget to live!

I take this moment to tell you all that I turn 20 this year and I am super excited about it. I feel really old already! I want to enjoy my twenties to be honest. I used to think that enjoyment would come to you at some point but I have realized that you take it by force. I just want to make a conscious effort to make myself happy and not wait for my happiness to come from wherever lol. I am going to visit new places, meet new people and make new friends somehow, I do not know how it is going to happen, but it will happen.

I just want to have the most exciting year, and I hope you do too! Sending all my love to everyone visiting by blog. Don’t forget to live without limits. I am going to teach myself to hack this consistency thing finally this year. Friendly reminder that you are loved, you are beautiful and you are amazing!

Till next time,

-TTA.
