Dear reader,
Time flies. It feels like yesterday when i set my mind to recording my life's experiences in 2025. Little did i know that life had other plans. I truly purposed to share a lot of things .
LIFE AS A LIBRARIAN
Life as a Librarian is somehow overwhelming. It makes you lose truck of time. You fall into the norm of a routine life. By the time you set another goal, the year is over without accomplishing anything. I recently realized that when you fail to sit back and think for a bit....you will end up living the same life year in, year out.
What would you love to achieve? What would you want to do differently? what are you aspirations, who inspires you? Get up and make a change. It is almost two years ago when i decided that i would spend my summer holiday building life skills and gaining knowledge about the things i love..OOOOu i remember the feeling. The fulfilment it gave me seeing my name on a certificate. I registered for two course; Professional baking and Basics in Secretariate and in Computer lessons.
Life and plans never seem easy or possible to achieve new things. It takes a lot to set your mind and do something. The courses were one week each, i tell you it was not the easiest to go for the classes. Down the line almost gave up, but thankfully i paid my own fees hence attended all the classes.
LIFE AS A MOTHER
I have two lovely kids (7 and 6 year old) and a niece (18 years old).
Hmm. What can i say. HMM. Those are the exact words that come to mind. From the mommy calling, the fights, the wants, eish,,it can only get better.
The dreams i have for them, or should i call it plans/goals are amazing . From wanting to travel every holiday, to the movie dates, play dates, eish. May they come to pass.
There are times when i would think not having kids would have been better, or maybe they would have been staying with their father or grandmother instead. The feeling of quilt and feeling like i am not doing a good job comes in from time to time but when they smile, joke arround,make me laugh, i am reminded that i am doing a good job. Believing for a better mommy experience is normal. Sharing with other mommies helps ease the quilt feeling. It is the mind playing with you. Do not give in to the thought. You are doing a great job.
LIFE AS A TRAVELLER
Travelled less in 2025 because decided to complete building my home. It came with challenges but at least we moved into our home in November,2025. I am Hoping to travel more in 2026.
LIFE AS A DESIGNER
My aim is to design at least one beautiful piece in a month. As simple as it sounds, its difficult. From buying material, deciding what to make, finding time to sit and sew, has been challenging. One can find themselves losing interest in their talent.
Looking at other fashion designers who have achieved their dreams and seeing their creativity keeps me going. I encourage myself that i will master the routine and become serious with my goal.
I Am African 3rd ed. was held in May. It was challenging in terms of finances but managed to hold the function. I Am African Magazine is yet to be launched.
I Managed to showcase at the Zambia's Next Top Fashion Designer Africa Launch in November,30th,2025. It was amazing though challenging in terms of sewing, but so glad managed to showcase.
Presenters and Models fiesta was held in December. The first event was t he activation party and awards ceremony the the Fiesta. Gained knowledge and ideas that would love to see come to life in the year 2026.
LIFE AS A BLOGGER
I bought some equipment's to help me with my blogging and vlogging; Tripod (long one and short one). The equipment's will also be used during events. Small baby steps am taking and proud of myself.
Until next time...
Thank you for viewing.
