Face of a Lost Friend

Hi guys, it’s been a loo…….ng while since I last posted. Sigh. Well I recently changed from ex-student to worker so a lot time re-ordering was in order 😀 .

Yeah, that’s a huge change and so there’s my short story about my long absence from blogging. Missed it terribly cause it was one of the prime forces which pushed me to go out and take pics.

Midweek Music: Digital Daggers

Beautiful emo-soul music reminiscent of lost love, a chance discovery while on YouTube. This teaser song hints at a great album (The Devil Within) but till I listen to its entirety enjoy this lyric Video of this song for my midweek Music muse.

Cheers to the rest of the week 😀 *clink*

Haiku Friday: Thrill & Final

A brink within reach,
Thrill of final curtain call,
Except your empty.

2016: Full Circle

Lagos lagoon at night 2 by rubys polaroid

It has finally come full circle, another year has passed and it’s time to take stock of my goals from last year as well as what I want to use my 2016 for.

Last year January in my 2015 in High Resolution <= Post Link, I penned down some goals of mine (7 actually) with the thought of a smaller, compact list would make for more achievement.
 2015 in high resolution a
……..
How did I fare?
To be honest, out of my 7 goals I achieved 4 😀 (those with a black box next to them) . Well my lofty goal of 2000 followers ended up being 784 (cumulative) compared with 215 (as at post). Not quite an astronomical leap but I’m happy for the growth of my blog. I’ve met new friends on my blog as well as through my novel writing stint last November. It was tough on my brains but I was happy to lay to rest the nagging story in my head after 4 years. I’m now plotting a new list for this year hopefully i’ll do more than last year 😀 .
So what are your New Year Goals and how well did you do last year. Would love to read your relies in the comments. Ciao

Haiku Friday: Fresh Start

Bitter cold years keep,
Shrouded in the darkest hour,
Warmth of the new dawn.

Midweek Music: King and Country

A very cool christian group that has gained popularity of late. The album CRAVE,was beautiful. Quietly  reminding me so much of another rock band but with a christian touch. In the spirit of the season give this a shot at your heart  🙂

NaNoWriMo Win

*Drum roll*

And its official, NaNoWriMo is over…..Yipeee. Crossed the treacherous finish line at 20:15 today with my word count at 52,158 words
*grins from ear to ear*
I’ll be lying if i didn’t say this seemed pretty impossible at the start, but i found a way amongst the stress of everyday to write a little bit at a time. Now i officially have the First draft of my novel. I had a title in mind at the beginning but as the story morphed it had to change along with it. My new working title is The Rose Rebellion. A sequel is floating around in my head even as i lay the this novel draft down for a well deserved rest till January, till then i plan on enjoying this Christmas and New Year break.
If you want to check my page on the Nanowrimo site my pen name is…….you guessed right RUBYR8. *wink*

See you in the comments 🙂
