And with just a few words…

Feb 2, 2018Paula NorahRants and Ramblesdenial, grief, loss

“How much longer did you except her to live?” she asked with a calm voice, her eyes slowly but steadily studying our reaction to that question. She was probably expecting to get an answer. The silence in the room was evidence of the discomfort the question had brought. What were we supposed to say? We…

The ‘Man’ in every ‘Woman’

Aug 17, 2017Paula NorahRant, Rants and Ramblesfear of medicine, lifestyle, nairobi, sick

I am the worst patient ever. I know this for a fact. I have an ardent fear of anything medicine related which means I can take even 10minutes to swallow a tablet, even one that is sugar coated. I hear there are such. I don’t have the guts to taste any. I will just take…

My Boss is a Jerk

Aug 12, 2017Paula Norah1 CommentFictionfiction, office romance, work life

(This is a work of fiction) A few months ago, I got a job with a highly reputable company. I was lucky to have been one of the elite to partake of the training prior to being accepted in the company. It was a test by my now boss to see which candidates can work…

I love travelling. Its something I would do all year if I get paid for it. (From the Archives…) I love travelling in comfort too. So I can be very choosy on which matatu I will use (when its public means). As I write this, I am actually travelling. I am headed back to school…

(From the Archives, previously posted in another blog) Blue ticks. No one wants to be a victim of those. For those wondering what blue ticks are and what blue-ticking is, let me be a lamb and educate you. When you get blue-ticked, you have been ignored. Your texts are going unanswered. And yes, they have…

15 Minutes of Fame

May 10, 2017Paula NorahRants and Rambleschanges, fame, lifestyle

(I don’t remember if this was ever posted on my former blog…) I should have written this a month ago, but I have issues with procrastination. In my defence to whoever has been waiting, I did start it three times. All those times just felt wrong. It wasnt what I wanted. So I took my…

A Girl Needs To Sleep

Apr 29, 2017Paula NorahRants and Rambleshumour, insomnia, sleep

Insomnia. This sucks! Until recently, I have been having a big problem when it comes to sleep. I couldn’t find that one thing that would get me to sleep. I finally found myself sleepy on a fine night. That was going to be it. I was going to sleep like never before…I was in bed…

Bob…

Apr 10, 2017Paula NorahArchives, Rants and Rambleshumour, musings, phobia

This is the story of my encounter with a now odd ally, Bob. No one knows when they get to meet new ‘people’ in life. You will soon know why ‘people’ is in quotes. It is not fair to anyone when you are hungry and someone makes you wait for food. Whatever reason they have,…

Aug 9, 2016Paula NorahArchives21-year-old, letter, Younger self

Hello, I am writing this to you as a 21-year old. I am not writing to tell you about the regrets that I have about my past. No, that would not be fair to you. You deserve to live every step of your life without having to think, ‘what if I regret this later?’ Or…
