Thoughts on a Wet Thursday Evening

Bonsoir! And greetings from the great white North! I've been AWOL and not sure why; I've been busy, I guess. Yeah, let's go with that, I've been busy. A lot has happened since I last wrote anything and I've been feeling pressed about it, so here goes, a little bug that has been scampering in… Continue reading Thoughts on a Wet Thursday Evening

Four Months and Counting..

It's been four months since I joined the Elephant and I can say it's been nothing like I expected. I'll tell what I mean in a few. Training School I joined the Elephant in February after a brutal 3 months of intensive studies and training, with exams - lots of it. Successfully crossed that hurdle… Continue reading Four Months and Counting..

2017: A Review

It's the first day of the new year (2018), I'm pretty excited that I made it. 2017 was one hell of year. Besides the fact that it was super fast and it ended earlier than I expected ( please don't ask me to explain), it had ups and downs. I'll start the good ones; a.… Continue reading 2017: A Review

Lion King; Identity Crisis

I have seen Lion King a million times, pardon my exaggeration, and I never got this point till now.
A post by a very good friend, Jay.
Enjoy.

I had a post for the week but something else came up that I had to write about. So I was watching Lion King yesterday (after a long time). I think it’s my all-time favourite cartoon! Lots of lessons to learn from it! Well, yesterday I caught a part I had never really paid attention to.

Remember the part where young Simba had to stay with Timon and Pumbaa after his dad died? Well there was this part where he started eating slimy insects along with them. Then it hit me, Simba had completely lost his sense of identity. He didn’t remember He was a king. Clothed in lion skin, he had more or less the mind of a Meerkat and a Warthog.

Pause. For those of you who haven’t seen the classic Disney cartoon, it’s a beautiful story about a kingdom where the Lion is the king

THE NEW JOB

TALKING TO YOURSELF

Compliments of the season!! I am sure we all had a splendid holiday period, lots of eating, drinking, dining and for some, mornings when you wished you hadn't done what you did the previous night. But that aside, I believe it was great for everyone, I for one did enjoy it, although I had little… Continue reading TALKING TO YOURSELF

LATE THIS YEAR

Hi there, it's been ages since I have been on here, my apologies. I have been swamped with different things, some of which I have lost track of and part of it was due to laziness and the huge wall that is the writers' block. I am here now so let's get down to the… Continue reading LATE THIS YEAR
