the best thing about the future? It hasn’t happened yet.
Dear diary,
You could imagine me feeling confident that I would frequent you in the past month and I couldn’t keep to that. I did think about coming here to rant but at the end, I didn’t because I could have faced you and fired blanks.
On Monday, I realized that I would be entering my final year in college in the next two months - as thrilled as I am, the thought of what comes next calms me the fuck down. Yes, I hate the school but there’s no denying the fact that it gives you this faux shelter in your first few years of adulthood.
I absolutely hate the fact that I’m using my Industrial Training program as an escape from the school environment because, deep down, I love learning environments - conducive ones at least. At the same time, learning from home has been a thrilling experience… staying up at night to attend classes and try hands-on projects is not easy as it looks. Sometimes, I just want to be on a racing simulator for 90 minutes. Super counter productive.
Amidst all the fears, I have managed to try a couple of things out and I’m still open to trying.
A week ago, I created a podcast which will be hosted on Substack - my amazing friend and I have brainstormed multiple times over the week on the niche to go with but we never really arrived at a concrete decision.
Nevertheless, we will be recording our first episode today and I can’t wait to join her in the studio - we're open to making mistakes and see what happens in the future and you know the best thing about the future? It hasn’t happened yet.
Dear reader,
There will be at least one newsletter coming from me to you in a week - if you can send an email as a reminder for me, I will really appreciate it.
Last thing, there will be a “Buy Me a Coffee” link to every content coming from here starting from this one (as you may have noticed).
Substack works with Stripe to make enabling subscriptions easier for creators but the problem there is that Stripe doesn’t operate in Nigeria so we creators here rely on secondary mediums for support and thankfully, “Buy Me a Coffee” worked out.
Together, we can do more and I’m here for it.
Again, I don’t know whether I’m ready for all this but I just know that a farmer that waits for the best planting season won’t be smiling during the harvest.
If you're still here, I love you very much.
¡Salud por nuevos comienzos!
Cheers to new beginnings!
