If I Could Be A Character From A Book, I Would Be Ifemelu From Americanah

If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?

If I could be a character from a book, I would be Ifemelu from the Americanah novel by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Her independent spirit and true nature are mesmerizing. Despite the hurdles she passed through when she moved from Nigeria to America to continue her studies because of the incessant strikes in Nigeria, she chose to be her real self, not minding what people say about her.

I must confess, this was one of the best books I have ever read, and will still read it because I read it every year.

I think Dogs Makes The Best Pets

What animals make the best/worst pets?

Though I’m not a lover of pets, but I think dogs make the best pets. On average, people love and keep dogs as pets compared to other animals.

Dogs. Dogs are perhaps the most iconic example of loyal animals. They have been “man’s best friend” for thousands of years and are known for their unwavering loyalty and companionship.

People love dogs more than other animals because Scientists have found that, just like oxytocin, dogs have higher levels of serotonin compared to wolves. This kind of happiness has to do with their relationship with humans—as dogs were domesticated, the human-dog bond became stronger, bringing both parties more happiness. Dogs give us so much.

I Love Cycling..

What Olympic sports do you enjoy watching the most?

I’m not a fan of sports, but I do love cycling and I believe I would enjoy watching it also.

Cycling, also known as bicycling or biking, is the activity of riding a bicycle or other type of cycle. It encompasses the use of human-powered vehicles such as balance bikes, unicycles, tricycles, and quadricycles.

Distractions Are Not Utterly Bad!!

How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?

Distractions are imminent when it comes to our goals and life in general. Distractions emanate from different forms, internal or external distractions. It is the ability to refocus our minds and retrace our steps whenever distraction looms, that will keep us more immersed in our goals.

Life can not happen without distractions, it is how we manage them that makes life worthwhile.

Distractions aren’t always bad; sometimes they are useful tools. In short, distractions can be a simple and effective way to make you feel better, rekindle your spark, and help you combat negative feelings and unhealthy habits. For instance, going for a walk, playing a video or puzzle game, seeing movies, and going for a drive, can strengthen our ability to tackle new challenges.

Rainy Weather Comes With Peace And Serenity!!

What is your favorite type of weather?

My favorite type of weather is the rainy weather. I call it the cleansing season because it washes all dirt and dust from trees, buildings, streets, and fields away and makes everything and everywhere look magnificent and sparkling.

As a lover of fruits, this is the season for fresh fruits and vegetables. It promotes the proper growth of plants, trees, grasses, crops, and vegetables. It’s also a good time for animals because there are plenty of green grasses and small plants to munch on.

There is this peace and serenity that comes with rain. The sound of the rain, the smell of air and dust, and the sight of wet ground and green grass, all make me feel connected to nature. Rain also helps provide a calming effect on people, making them more relaxed and contented with their lives.

My favorite moment of rainy weather is the peaceful, pleasant, and comfortable night’s rest. I do sleep like a newborn especially when it rains all night.
