I have been sleeping too late nowadays and I actually hate how it makes me feel in the morning. Actually, I am nocturnal person and sleeping late has been my routine since like forever, but even then, I managed to wake up when I should and get on with my day in good spirit. I have been at home for a while and my daily routine hasn’t been very interesting like that, it’s mostly me doing numerous never ending house chores.
The only times I get to be productive and love so much is when I am on hive and also engaging in some business activities on my WhatsApp. I am still trying to figure out the other things I want to do with my life and I don’t want to make decisions out of desperacy, so I am being logical about it.
About today, I woke up around 11am because I actually slept around 6am. I was busy helping my mom with her lesson note, loosing my hair and also watching a movie. I ended up sleeping that late and when I woke up, I just felt a bit off and weak. My mom and dad had already gone to work, so it was just my brother and I. I got up and realized I had to do some few things. I had re-spread some cloths that I washed yesterday that weren’t fully dried, warm the food and some other little chores. I later ate and just chose to relax after, I didn’t even feel like chatting on my WhatsApp.

In the process of relaxing, I had to check some updates that will help me with my masters application. I got a particular scholarship link and began the application process, till I got stuck at a point where some questions were asked. I might actually need to take some time to construct my words before submitting it.
Few hours later, my mom got back from work and it was then my brother came to tell me that we should go out together to get some ingredients. He was going to be the chef for the night😂 My brother is always in his room and most of the time, I’m the one doing the cooking, then mom at times.
If my brother wants to cook, it’s always all these YouTube recipes with unnecessary stress and ingredients 😂. I think it’s safe to call him a ‘once-in-a-while’ chef😂 Well, I took my bath and washed my hair in between. I thought we were going to the nearby supermarket we visit most times, so I just wore something very simple with my slippers and bucket cap to cover my hair. It was when we left home and almost got to the bus stop that I realized we were going to a farther place. I guess I heard him wrongly when he mentioned it before.
So, we got to shoprite mall at Dugbe, Ibadan, where their oldest branch is situated and also the compound where the famous cocoa house was built in. The major ingredient he was looking for, which made us journey that far in the first place, was not in stock. We were disappointed and I suggested that we should go to their second and bigger store at Palms shopping mall, Ring road, Ibadan.

We got there and to our greatest surprise, we didn’t find the Ingredient there as well. We just decided to buy the other ingredients that we needed and headed back home. It was already a bit dark by the time we got home because we actually went really far away from home.
We got home and started the whole preparation—cutting carrots, cooking and frying chicken, cutting the green and chilli pepper, cutting sausage etc. We were going to make stir fry spaghetti, which came out really nice at the end.

Well, the day ended up being very eventful and I really loved that. I hope to having a better day tomorrow, I will also attempt to sleep earlier today.
Thanks for reading❤️
