Meet Me

The  Short Version

 Hello! My name is Fope, well it really is Mofopefoluwa. My blog and now my YouTube Channel are about my musings and the shareable parts of my life. I enjoy writing and I'm learning to do it better. So far on this blog, I have imagined things , thought out loud, and shared life updates. 

I've always seen myself branching out to writing about romantic relationships and I finally did it! I wrote a book, titled, Situationship: How to Stop Breaking Your Own Heart. It's available on Amazon and other places. You can read 3 FREE Chapters and find out where to buy my book here. Soon, I'd like to do a Q and A, something like what you would see in a magazine/ newspaper relationship column. See,  I'm slowly getting there. 
The Extra Details

 I've thought of starting this blog afresh now that I'm a tad bit older and wiser (2018 edit), but I did that to my Instagram before the "Archive" function was a thing, and I regret deleting all those moments. So, I decided I'd leave all the messiness on here and chronicle my growth as I go.

 I really am a Jill of many trades, and I don't intend to leave any interests unexplored. I studied Psychology in undergrad, then I did an MBA. Grad school was an interesting journey, and it stretched me emotionally. I used to think I was pretty resilient, but that humbled me. 

 For work at the moment, I'm a bridge between business and IT people. For work in the future, I want to sell things (both products and services) online, and I want to get businesses to think of the strategy aspect of digital marketing...and invest in it. I'm also super passionate about talking to people about deep things, so there's my love affair with counseling.  As long as I live, I'm sure this list of trades will grow.

 I'm learning to love Jesus deeply and understand what it means to have a relationship with Him. A relationship that makes being a Christian less about rules/structures and more of a logical response to my love for Him.  You know how staying faithful shouldn't be hard if you love and enjoy your spouse? Yeah, like that.

 I really love food, albeit that I've been endowed with a body that's not forgiving of my enjoyment of food.

When I'm not lurking through people's pages on Instagram, fine-tuning some of my many ideas (while hoping I don't let them die as ideas), I'm probably reminding myself that God is bigger than my fears #faithoverFear.

 This blog is a collection of my loosely organized thoughts, and I hope something resonates with you. 

 I'm super stoked that you took the time to read this!  

 Thank you! Thank you! And Welcome!

Acknowledging Privilege

You know one thing that comes with looking at old things with new eyes? Interesting discoveries!   For those of you who do not know, I have been in Nigeria for thirteen days and I will be here till the end of the year. So, I’m writing about what it feels like to go back home after half a decade. I already said in my last post that everything seems familiar except that it isn’t. And by that I meant that I’m now noticing things that have probably always been there, but had managed to go unnoticed. Every time I notice something, I wonder if I'm thinking and acting like a foreigner in my own motherland. It's a weird feeling. But it is what it is; I've been out of touch.  Let's move to today's story. One night last week, Oye knocked on my door because she had been sent to get something called a “ruler”.  Oye is the amazing maid, who really has been my right hand person. She's been helping me relearn the art of crossing Lagos streets, perfecting my haggli

Hey Lil Troublemaker.

Photo credit:  looseends  via  Foter.com  /  CC BY-NC-SA Freezing as usual. I've gone through today's edition of "school sucks, especially in the Winter". I have a midterm anyway, so there's no way around school today. No point whining. There's a 3-minute bus for the 7minute walk I have to make to my next class.  When the roads are icy and slippery (like today) and man's greatest fear is becoming 'Humpty-Dumty the second', that walk becomes more10-ish minutes. So, of course I'll take the bus! *Whew!*. I made the bus.  To calm my raging nerves - because I'm pretty tensed about my Stats midterm - I read the cover page of Metro newspaper. The story I first see is something about wheelchairs not getting priority over strollers. Lol? Who wouldn't know that? On second thought, it wouldn't be on the front page of the paper if something hadn't happened. Apparently, some bus driver had told someone with a toddler to get off t

The Ontario Christian and 2015 sex-ed changes

I don’t know if it’s too many classes in sociology of religion, human sexuality, and the likes of these that have made my opinions significantly different from friends with whom I share other opinions. But since I am yet to find a ground comfortable enough for my Jesus loving self and freedom of expression celebrating side to stand, I write. One of our pastors was /is pretty furious at the recent changes to Ontario’s sex education laws. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, let’s take a moment to update you . When it finally loads, please scroll down to view the juice of it. Now that you get the idea, my question to my friends has been what makes this wrong from a non-Christian POV? Given that the entire population is not Christian, why would you expect the laws not to favor the non-Christians as well? If you absolutely detest homosexuality as a religious command and have a religious responsibility to train up your child in the way of God, I expect that you would teach y
