This photo was taken exactly one year, two months and ten days ago.It shows many things that very few people have ever seen in me.(Ignore my mug)
In that person there is a spirit of resilience, struggle, pain, love, happiness, bitterness, peace anger, anxiety and most of all, a smile on the face for the world.
2 decades+, a boy was born full of life and ready to face this world of realities.The celebrations later became reality of raising a prime being.
Years down the line, I am this young man who has gone through most of what his peers only read on blogs and in Jeffrey Archer novels. I would say so much but on this step in life, I can only give thanks to God, my family, friends, acquaintances, frenemies and colleagues.
After God I solely thank my family for this far, I have done so much with their help and am sure with the new year in my small world, the world will open more doors for me, and them.
My bosses and colleagues have also done so much to shape me to the person I am.
My friends, some have stuck by me, others have left and I am still able to hold my head high, keep the spirit and stick closer than I do.
My love life, here is where I will not write much, but the love I have would feed a hundred pigeons three meals a day for an year.
Down here is where I mention a few names: Ruth Senior, William Senior, Tosh, Cherop, Monique, Ndugu, Shiru, Manju, Kihoi, Muthoni, Soni, Kada Steve, K you people are my pillar.
Sly, Linc, My BFF Maureen, Senator Luiz, Generali, George, Biggie, Were, Faith, Teresa, Ann Trincess, Martins, Nzau, Slave Master, Irene, Generali, Karis, Wamaitha, Maam, Lina, Jomunji and Jae, you are my close and small circle!!


In other news, knock yourself out all the way, BECAUSE I WILL.

For fine things in life, we introduce Zipang Lounge

Have you set foot in an Irish pub, well i have, but it was under construction at the time.... In my small time research, i have found out that any establishment is unique based on unique culture centred around a casual and friendly atmosphere, hearty food and drink, Irish sports, and at times traditional Irish music. ION , a humorous writer and master of wits has written some good words about the hottest thing that has happened to Mombasa Road in the recent past, Zipang Lounge Get carried away When I travel, and I have been here and there doing this and that, top on my list of to do things is sampling as varied a menu as I can comfortably sample. Exotic meals, local dishes, name it. So I have experienced quite a varied fare. I have eaten ‘Fufu with green green’ where the accompaniment is escargot, if you catch my drift, at that local foods place inside Accra Mall in Ghana. With soup to die for I must say. Especially with just the right amount of pepe..what we call

Why you can consider joining NYS in your "gap year"

President Uhuru Kenyatta greets National Youth Service recruits after a parade at the NYS college in Gilgil on September 10, 2014.Photo, courtesy After watching 'Boy Meets World', a television series that chronicles the life of friends from middle school days to their marriage life, one thing kept ringing in my mind is how most men make mistakes in the gap between completion of high school and the "start of life" as most people call the transition. In the current set up, once a young man aged 17 or 18 completes high school, there is always gap of about one year before they can join college or college or university. With so much time on your hands, some try the few things they were always warned against. There others who form groups with their peers and spend days roaming in the neighbourhood and, eventually, try a few things like drugs and alcohol. Others take opportunity to try relationships with the opposite sex as this was banned while in school. But

Happy birthday Mr President, lakini wembe una uchungu

One year later, Jubilee on the right track? Today marks the first anniversary of the Jubilee government tenure in office since the repeat polls in October 26, 2017. The goverment led by President Uhuru Kenyatta and Deputy President William Ruto was elected after the first poll was cancelled by Kenya's Supreme Court citing irregularities, and ordered a new one within 60 days. The election commission had declared incumbent Uhuru Kenyatta the winner by a margin of 1.4 million votes. Raila Odinga, Uhuru's opponent, said the commission was "rotten and demanded their resignation. President Uhuru would later in October clinch the seat with  7,483,895 votes out of the 7,616,217 valid votes cast. The Opposition however did not take part in the repeat poll as NASA supporters barred IEBC officials from delivering voting material and engaged police in running battles. Raila had pulled out of the race two weeks before the election saying it would be skewed like the first poll. He fur
