Hello Royalty. How has the year been so far? Are you doing great? I hope you are! Today, we’re looking at something pretty short and powerful at the same time. Did you know?

INSPO || Lessons from my first 2019 reads
Hello Royalty. Happy New Year! The year, 2019, has only just started, but it has been amazing! Not a lot of activity yet, TBH the farthest I have stepped out is to take the trash out. I’ve been indoors for the past four days, but I think I’m stepping out today.* However, it’s been great […]
2018 WAS MY YEAR OF YES
Hello Royalty. When people say a lot of things happen to them in one year, I find it almost impossible to understand.

INSPO || On Careless Talks and Nonsense…a whole lot of nonsense.

LIFESTYLE x INSPO || 2018 LAST QUARTER: What about those goals?
Hello Royalty. I was speaking with a friend yesterday and I said, “It feels like I just got here thirty minutes ago. I can’t believe it’s been two hours!” Then he said, “Yeah, this week has been so fast”, and I added, “Yeah, can’t wait for December” and then he goes, “Don’t talk about December!” […]
FLASH FICTION || A New Dawn
Gaunt is the old man who lives across the compound. Gaunt is how I feel when I play your words in my head – a hit record one might call it, an album of five words – “it is over between us.” Oh let us remember to add that refrain, “May we be distant forever.” […]
ON DEMAND || HOW TO GET INTO GRAD SCHOOL WITHOUT GRE,TOEFL OR IELTS
Hello Royalty. This post is long overdue. I apologize. From my last post on getting into graduate school, I got a few messages and comments on what to do to get into grad school. I know grad school is not for everyone and this post is probably not going to be “relatable” for some of […]
