Thanksgiving

It was Mid-year thanksgiving at my church today. I couldn't have picked a better Sunday to start off  this new phase of my life. I planned to take photos after the service. Bad bad bad idea. All that dancing & jumping left me looking...well, you get the idea... 

I still managed to take a few. Just because I love you so.

Enjoy the rest of this beautiful day!

P.S: Thanks for your lovely comments & private messages concerning my last post. I am humbled & I really appreciate that people care! Thanks for reading MJS. x

The girl is back! :)

I have missed this space greatly!

No need to waste time on the long story, so here's the short version.

In the past few weeks, I....

a) Finished uni.

b) Had a BLAST with my amazing friends in Cardiff.

c) Did A LOT of packing.

d) Moved back to Nigeria.

 I have been looking forward to moving back for ages but when I found myself with a few days to go, I wasn't such a happy bunny. I've left behind some people that I am going to miss terribly. Will look forward to seeing them every now and then in the future.

In other related news, I start Law School very soon. I'm on my way to becoming a Barrister. It won't be easy but by God's grace, I will get there.

Here are some photos from one of our days out before I left. 

It was during the Queen's Diamond Jubilee weekend hence, the tank top.

Yup! The little kid in me lives on. *shrugs*

Blazer: H&M, Tank & Sandals: Newlook, Shorts: M&S.

Have a lovely weekend!

Olympic Torch Relay

The Olympic flame passed through Cardiff today and shall party with us tonight before it leaves tomorrow.

I was only too glad to ditch the books for some sun and banter with friends.

The streets were packed as expected. Thankfully, it wasn't so bad right outside my house so I didn't have to travel far to get a good view. I guess most people preferred to wait at the final destination.

Knowing Cardiff people, tonight the town will be party central!

Some of us will be right here at our desks, memorising case law and what-not.

Have a lovely Friday night people!

All the Pretty Birds

Hey hey! :)

Quick post while I take a break from studying...

I got this dress from a random store in Cardiff sometime last year. I'd rather not wear clothes that have animals 'drawn' on them but I saw this dress and the colours stole my heart. 

The birds are cute alright too.

In other news, we're back to my kind of weather...the only problem (evident in the photos) is the wind!

By the way, my lipstick is not THAT bright! Its just the setting I used to edit the photos. It kind of inflates the size of my lips too. *shrugs*

Have a lovely week people!

Sunglasses: Gucci.
Shoes: Faith.

Just like candy

It's been a beautiful day so far. Church was lovely and the sun is out in full force. I tried to take some photos outside but it was way too windy. My hair was flying all over the place.

The title of the post was inspired by the shoes I have on. Its patent leather and in that shade of pink, it makes me think of candy.

I'm off to memorise enough case law to write a book.

Have a lovely Sunday evening!
