"No one can predict change and the conditions it brings along, so you just have to accept it the way it presents itself, you have no power over it anyway..."

F.A.B

I lived across from a huge mansion and it's so beautiful from the exterior, each day I wonder what the interior would look like, and I hope I'll be given the chance to see it for myself. I stood from the spot I was sitting and went back into my hostel room, turning to face the mirror immediately I got in, I took in my features, I own russet-brown eyes which look so large and cute, raven-black hair which brushed my shoulder a bit, I wouldn't say I'm dark skinned, I think chocolate would do just fine.

But the thing is no matter how beautiful you are on the outside, what your character is is a waste to your beauty if it doesn't commend it, but not everyone knows this, so also if you have secrets you might be so beautiful no one would ever suspect you, but still, once one secret is leaked, that's the end for you.

I straightened my outfit and picked up my bag as I left for school, staring at my reflection in the mirror wouldn't get me to school early, so I better get going to school, it's fine being a second year student as long as you know what it is you're doing in school. I can't spend my days in gloom.

As the taxi I was in drove into the school premises I couldn't help but smile at the thought of seeing crazy people that are unavoidable in life, I have to admit, without them, life would be so boring.

One would look at me and be like, "that snobby spoilt girl," yes I am spoilt but I don't display it, except if the situation calls for it. There were times back then in secondary school, when teachers would like to be acting all difficult and wicked with me even when I did nothing wrong, so anytime they tried it with me, I showed them the spoilt girl that I am, speaking rudely to them and threatening to report them to the school authorities or the police...even though that was a little extra since in Nigeria, the police might not take you serious, it worked anyway I always got left alone like I've always wanted to be.

Sadly in the University, no lecturer gives a damn, but your coursemates wouldn't like to trespass if they know you have an aggressive side, it works everytime and it's always very effective. I don't have friends in school, let's say I'm pretty much a loner, it's not like I want to be a loner, it's just that I don't want to get too attached to someone like I once did, so that if I loose the person, it wouldn't have that much effect on me, relationships fade overtime if they aren't taken proper care of, bonds become worthless if there's no effort made on either part of the relationship.

That's just how life is, throwing at you things that aren't meant to last forever, which is why we have memories to keep them fresh....
