20 Facts about Me!

Hey Guys!

Happy Monday :)

I was tagged to write 20 facts about me by Dami of Scribbles and Realities. I was also tagged by Xclusive Mic the comedian/MC on Instagram. At first I thought I wouldn't have much to say because I have written a lot of facts about myself on the blog already and I don't like to repeat information. I've written 20 facts though and they are pretty different from the ones in the Sunshine Blogger Award Post, the Liebster Award Post and the Blog Tag too. Yayyy me

The Gratitude Challenge

Happy New Month Folks!
The Ember months have begun which means the end of the year is getting closer and closer each passing day, it'll soon be 2015 o, Make this month a Memorable one!

Over the weekend, Aby of Miss Purple Heart left a comment that she had nominated me for the Gratitude Challenge. I was pleasantly surprised when I read that comment, it's nice to know that other bloggers have my blog in mind. It's a bit of a reflective post and even if I haven't nominated you, feel free to take up the challenge.




THE RULES:
  1. When nominated you have 24 hours to accept the challenge.
  2. You have to write or say 3 things you are grateful for on any social media platform just once. (I said 4 though)
  3. You are to take a picture of a simple pleasure. A simple pleasure is something that makes (or made) you smile in a day preferably non humans (because I am sure a lot of people would list the humans as what they are grateful for). For example a cup of coffee, a bottle of your favorite soda or drink, a scoopful of ice cream, a butterfly that just perched on a window, something at your work desk, a game…You get the drift. It is something that should be inexpensive. It is not an opportunity to show off cars, watches, shoes and all the things that people like showing off nowadays.
  4. You have to give out at least 5 USD (convert it to your local currency) within 7 days of accepting the challenge to a less privileged person or a cause or a charity organization. That's about 840 naira.
  5. You nominate three people (within your circle) to take up the challenge.
  6. If you don’t accept the challenge you are required to donate at least 20 USD to a charity organization of your choice.

I actually finished editing this post on Wednesday and I was so pleased with myself, was really excited to put it up too. I Love it when I post everyday and in my mind, I was on a roll as my 61st post is fully ready, waiting to be shared. The thing I wrote didn't save and when I realised this, the motivation just disappeared and I was like till tomorrow y'all. Tomorrow was yesterday and I went for an Impromptu Pancake Party which was really fun. At the end of the day, I was too tired to even put on my laptop so you will be getting 2 posts today. I am such a Story woman though, did I really need to say all this, of course not, but it's my blog so I can do as I please. Yayyy to Freedom of Expression. Anyways, back to the award...

50th Post:The Liebster Award!!!

Hey Guys!!

I'm currently at the Redemption Camp for the Holy Ghost Convention and signal here is terrible because there are sooo many people so the masts are working over capacity. My airtel sim finally started working and I'm using the personal hotspot for my laptop, it's pretty quick too. My sister is saying it's too good to be true because it's moving so quickly, I guess our prayers were answered. Life without internet is not the one, Thank God for 3G!!

So Tuke's Quest was given the Liebster Award by 2 bloggers in the past few weeks. Thank you Bolaji and Elizabeth!! I feel quite honoured as I always saw the award on other blogs before I started mine and it was something I aspired to get one day. This is my 50th post too so I think it's pretty befitting, plus it's been 6 months since my first post, Yayyy to Progress and over 15,000 views!!
