Young Sponsors United

Image
Now, the last thing I would want, is to be called a chauvinist, either male or female, but please save me that title. I do not intend to paint men in bad light, even in My previous articles,it's  just that Men, like All Africans, have a great deal of stories worth being shared. Today, let us try and focus on matters affecting us currently, I don't know if you get affected on a personal level, but I don't. I also don't know why something that doesn't affect you, should bother you? Just recently, a few days ago my good friends Jeff Mote and Chipukeezy , hahaha relax, I know big people. Well, they came up with a Union and dabbed it; - Young Sponsors United ... You don't have to be rich , as long as you have potential... A very brilliant Idea, aimed at helping broke men or young sponsors with ideas on how to tackle this new Sponsorship Crisis. A great deal of men out there are suffering from depression, due to such issues, and I think sometimes, ladies a...

WHO IS YOUR FRIEND?

Image
I guess, if I ask you today who a friend is, you'll probably tell me that a friend is someone who is always there whenever you need them. Which is true because that is the context in which we were brought up in. To believe that someone has to be there to offer a shoulder whenever we feel really down trodden. People were brought up differently and in my case, I was a last born for quite a long time, so my only friends were my parents who rarely took account of the things I told them.  I was never in good terms with my siblings because for quite a long time, I was the "Kameme" ,nothing would be seen in my eyes and ears yet fail to pass through my Mouth. I would literally report every single detail when my parents came back in the evening. So this made me become very drawn back. I rarely talk to people about issues concerning me, and then to make matters interesting, I'm a trained Psychologist and Counselor, hence I get to listen a lot than talk. So when friends open ...

Your Breakthrough Hour will Come

Noreen Crique They say that you will always get what you work for, but what happens when You put in quite too much of your effort on something and end up getting nothing. Always studying for your exams but you get you average Mark ,a C+ .Do your hair, Polish your nails, make up and all that but your boyfriend never notices. Or maybe you are the guy who buys lunch, Airtime, tickets, picks and drops her and after all this, she dumps you or worse puts you in the Friend Zone.That aside,perhaps you are the artist/producer who spends all your time in the studio and after releasing a song ,it doesn't hit, let alone gaining airplay or that poor actor/actress overflowing with Talent, who has gone to all auditions in Nairobi, From Alliance Francaise to Phoenix, to The National Theatre and still didn't get anything but the same faces on our Local Content Programmes. It's even much frustrating for that person that has sent their CV to over 50 organizations without a...

The Sorrows of Online Roasting

Image
If you are a WhatsApp fan and you are really into groups like me, you are probably familiar with the terms "beef" or "roast" and there is another one "Toast"...This terms majorly circulate among Beef and they relate well.So in the Internet world if you have a beef with someone, you will either get roasted or toasted by them . Though there are people who have pleasure in beefing with ordinary members, friends, admins and Celebrities There are many factors that create beefs among group members, factors I would really like to mention but I can't. .Recently just a few days ago, I was roasted real good by a bunch of rejects from different groups, And I must compliment their skills in the mastery of the art...it's like people are paid to abuse other people. I did not take keen interest but I felt for people with low self esteem, I placed myself in their shoes and wondered how they really felt . Sometimes it is not good to take out your frustrations on...

RIP Linda Wanjala...Gone too soon

Image
I'm jotting this post today a very sad  lady. Sad, confused and shocked.I have lost a friend, former school mate, an age mate and someone I respected as an Achiever and go getter. It has been two days since the news was broken to me by a friend named (Cyrillah).I can remember when she texted me "Linda Wanjala is dead" I replied "Hahaha...Uongo" Because I thought she was joking and I wondered why...but later on I went to read the conversation on our group wall and tears did not stop rolling down my cheeks. I then started asking my self a series of questions.It did not seem real...at this time no one knew the cause of her death and some part of me kept telling me it's not true... On the previous day, Tuesday, we had met over pizza ( me and some of my schoolmates) just to catch up and have fun times, but none of us new what laid in store for us the next day . We even planned on how we were going to dund a on Friday but, today we plan on how we are g...

The Art Of Forgiving

Image
Now if you went to the same school with me you are familiar with the term "Booking Sheet". Lemme explain this to those of you who don't have an Idea...A booking sheet is an Ordinary  piece of paper that used to be given to Prefects in our school. They used this to secretly record any mistake done by Us...The ordinary students.I might not have been lucky enough to be among them but I got a chance to be their favourite culprit. If you have spent some time around me and you can stand to say you know me, the first thing you will probably say is that I am talkative and I agree ...Noreen Crique is a Bright,Chatty and Extroverted lady who loves expressing her self. I used to be booked for all sorts of mistakes Noisemaking, Jumping the Queue (yes jumping not cutting), Bullying form ones, Howling and even Sleeping in Church. I never used to mind all these mistakes coz some were false but what stroke me is ...One day Noreen Kituyi was sick,ill, unwell yanii... just add all the ...
