Im Alive: Greetings from North Jersey

Happy September ! I'm currently In North Jersey, sitting outside on the steps listening to Sza and blogging! Yes I know it's the middle of September but it's been months since I've been on here. My life has literally taken a left turn. Some good, some bad, but through it all I've managed to survive.

I recently graduated from law school this past May and started studying for the bar right after that. Let's just say after graduation, my life became non existent. From sun up to sun down I was either at home, in the library or at the Catholic center in my school studying.

Then the end of June came and unfortunately my Father passed away. Just when I thought life could not get worse it did. I felt like my life went downhill from there. Studying turned into me staring into space or just randomly crying out of the middle of nowhere.

Then July came and I took my bar exam from July 29-31. Although I felt like a burden was lifted off my shoulder after the exam I still had the issue of my dad's wake and funeral which meant me coming down here to Jersey as well as flying to Nigeria because that's where we buried him.

Now fast forward to September. I'm happy that at least that part of my life was done. I don't think I've ever been as stressed out as I was from June - September beginning. Along my journey I've lost some friends, gotten closer to some, started a new fitness and health journey and have just learned to appreciate life as it comes. My life is not perfect but it's all that I have and I am learning to embrace it.

So with that being said, I hope to make my blog bigger and better and keep it running with daily posts.

To all my readers, I just want to say a big Thank You ! And stay tuned !

Love Joy !
