Another 365 years around the sun but this year is different. This year, I turned 20.
20 years on this earth, I’m still in disbelief. Wasn’t I just 16 a year ago??? I guess not.
For the past month, I’ve been shouting “big 20!” but I think reality is just starting to set in…I’m getting old.
I guess I’m bit excited about becoming an “adult” but I’m also a bit on edge. Why? BECAUSE I’M 20! I’m still meant to be a baby but it seems time doesn’t want to slow down for me.
20 years on this earth, I’ve been through quite a lot of things- mentally, physically, socially and even spiritually.
20 years on this earth and I have to admit, I’ve still not figured this life thing out
A whole 2 decades and I still do not know what I’m doing. Any small inconvenience and I’m on FaceTime with my older siblings, crying my eyes out or on the phone with my parents whining and complaining.
I’m not going to lie, I feel pressured. To you, I might just be 20 and still young, but to me I feel like I’m running out of time and I still haven’t figured out what I want to do yet and it doesn’t help that I’m graduating soon.
This isn’t a blog post to encourage anyone, this is just me pouring out my mind to strangers on the internet.
So, I’m 20 years old, what have I learnt so far? Honestly, nothing.

But then I have to remember…
Alsoooooo, to mark my new age and a new decade in my life, my website has a new look! It was carefully designed and has different elements and colours that I absolutely LOVE.
I’m obsessed.
Happy birthday to me! Send birthday funds

If you are 20 years old and above, how did you feel about turning 20?
Do/did you also feel pressured?
Does it get easier?
Do you have any advice for me as I’m entering my Twenties? Omo, feels weird to type LMAO
What do you think about the new website look?

Happy Birthday Tanto!!! And I’m wishing you more life, good health and more success in your endeavours. I’m currently 23 and I guess the biggest lessons I’ve learnt is you’ll have to be super picky with your circle and be ready to cut people off who are pulling you back. I’m not saying twentysomethings are the years of making enemies but I believe from personal experience that it’s when you need to get serious with ya goals… and yeah, it gets easier. Thank God for grace cos the work’s always worth it in the end. Cheers to more joys!!!

Happy Birthday!! Welcome to the mess that is the 20’s. I just turned 23 and I guess the only advice I have is to know that no one knows what they are doing.
Instead just enjoy life, we’re still really young. Figuring out life is for your 30s lol
