There are a lot of reasons I love to read.The main one is it helps me escape reality.
When I read a book, I drown in the story.
I can create pictures just the way I want. It's safe to say my imagination works a lot for me which brings me to the fact that I'm a dreamer.
I listen to music a whole and I like to sync the lyrics to my life in different realities.
I'm going to tell a tale of my favourite, the daydream that's most recurring.
I open my eyes and sigh with pure bliss. I cannot help but smile, I mean what's not to smile about?
I was living the dream.
I get out of my bed covered in plain white sheets, duvet, pillow cases.All white it would signify my clean slate.
I walk to the balcony and just relax feeling the fresh morning breeze running through my hair.
My alarm beeps indicating that it's time to get ready. I have to get to work.
The best part?, I can actually choose not to go because I finally did it. I can proudly wear the shirt inscribed **I love my boss...PS I work for myself.
There's this certain satisfaction I feel when I do things by myself for myself so believe me when I say I will be satisfied knowing I own my own clothing line.
I decide to stop being lazy and go to work.
The door is opened for me, I take a deep breath as it hits me. The smell of different fabrics.
Did I mention I love clothes?.
The design, the making, the feel, the wear?. Basically everything about them.
I'm barely seated when the phone rings, it's my mum. I wonder why she's calling my work phone.
"Hello Mum, Good afternoon"
If you're reading this and you have authentic African mothers, you will know the importance of that greeting.
The call was a normal check up. After a few hours of working I order in some food, because why not?
Basically I dream about having everything I've always wanted, designing clothes, having lots of them, eating whatever I want whenever I want, having money (lots of it), and of course it can't be complete without talking about Adele.
I like to close my eyes whenever I listen to her songs and imagine I'm at one of her concerts singing my heart out to her beautiful lyrics, then hugging her and thanking her for having such a beautiful heart.
I day dream a lot, much to an extent that I'm so caught up in it that I sometimes forget myself.
It's a really beautiful feeling I tell you.

The honest truth is that I do see myself going fully into fashion when I graduate, something I'm already making plans towards achieving.
I had a late start with figuring what I want to do with my life. As a little girl, I was really smart. Smart kids go for science just like I did.
Never did I imagine that I would find a likeness for anything art. I can't picture myself having to work for hours for someone. I've always liked to do my own thing so I hope in the years to come, my story becomes more than a dream.
