Premiumtize Your Ordinary

By

Tag your happiness to something worthwhile.

Let it arouse you when you think of it.

See beyond duty and obligation

Pick interest out in every detail of any given task and activity

Don't be simple

Don't do simple work simple

Even if you do the simplest thing

If it's make-up you do, be Da Vinci with it

If you sell boile and fish or groundnut, make it an institution not just a shed by the road side.

Sophisticate your ordinary

I was given a task in the office

To develop a plan and some scripts for a project

It warranted building a sustainable momentum and well driven aggressive online publicity

The natural thing would be developing a couple of short scripts and sending it to the marketing unit to deploy

But I am unnatural

I went wild and artistic

I drew a plan and developed a calendar schedule for months

Gave detailed and strategic communications with the trending topics

I had access to the best marketing team

So I worked closely with them

Drew data from data driven sites

I turned the simplest of task into an adventure

Finally, I kicked ass

Badass content strategist and expert storyteller

I Am

Everything cumulated to drawing a table on Ms word and writing over 30 or 31 short scripts on a particular brand.

But I made it an experience

Travelled into the minds of our targeted audiences

Studied their lifestyle

Every moment was a blessing

Every sweat was an acquired taste

The long nights and sleepless nights, working to beat timeline was enough aphrodisiac for my mentalrection.

I peaked the day it was approved.

I and my supervisor sat down afterwards and he said...

"KD, this is brilliant, it's a masterpiece."

I smiled.

To myself later I said...

"I'm a masterpiece!''

Create happiness from every task you are given.

Whatever is worth doing is worth doing happy.

Tag your happiness to something worthwhile.

Even if it's pepper you are selling

Pepper them with glitz and glamour

I am not afraid of the storm Facing it alone isn't something I would lose sleep over But I want to conquer with you Set anarchy to never after Bring liberty to forever more Alone we are survivors, caging the fiercest waves Swimming the deepest seas But, hand in hand we would drown the ocean You and I, we would drink the rivers dry And spit out islands Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne Authorpreneur

I hate my Job

By
Warning: Strong adult content 18+ I hate my job My boss, Miss Patricia, is a tyrant 40+, beautiful angelic face and even more perfect body, with a lovely smile, that she hardly uses, single mom of two beautiful teenage girls, whose pictures are hung everywhere in our offices. While her exterior is sweet and beautiful, her interior is dark and evil. Always barking orders at the rest of us, like children, her voice is so loud you wonder where she has the energy to scream in such a high note all the damn time She is so feared, her car horn is enough to immediately drown whatever noise or laughter is coming from the entire building The popular saying among us, her staff members, is that the fear of Patricia's horn is the beginning of wisdom I spent years searching for a job in the streets of Lagos, begging even, embarrassed by security men and spat at by lousy and saucy receptionists, to quit this one just like that. We die here! I was prepared to eat shit for as long as I could, so I ...

Riotous Love

By
I have always found Tony, my boyfriend, fascinating His write-ups and rants about bad governance and patriarchy got me wet and awestruck every single time I visited his timeline  Whenever he wrote a piece on Facebook and Twitter, he got thousands of likes and comments I always read every comment, especially from women who were mesmerized by his writing prowess I was once part of such women until I decided to shoot my shot, and, like cupid, I hit him straight in the heart A simple "Hello, I've read and enjoyed all your stories, maybe you could write ours someday, hope I'm not overreaching?" I had to drink almost a full bottle of bailey's to find courage for that stunt, and today, we are celebrating 8 months of the best love story ever. He was my Mr. Perfect, everything I could ever ask for and more It wasn't surprising when he asked me to join him and go for the peaceful protest here in Lagos, and like a love-struck puppy, quickly I jumped up and said yes That ...
