As seen from above, I'm Kenyan. I am still a teen (lol, no. You're old). Every year on my birthday I lock myself up in my room and lament on the odes of getting older. I like to eat and read and watch series (Like The Whispers). Ummmm, I think that's all. Well my life is empty!
Okay I like to read. Not like. I LOVE to read. I discovered Wattpad through a friend back in 2012 and visited the website during my class' computer lesson. The first book I read was My Wattpad Love by @Cold_lady19 and I was hooked! So I get home and 'coz I'm still young and crap, I don't have a phone. So I use my mum's phone to go online and read and stuff, secretly of course because she'd beat the black out of me if she finds me with it. So I use the phone whenever I can, including in the toilet. Then one time, as I was done using the toilet, the phone magically slips from my shorts' pocket and into the freaking toilet! I remember the smell till now; it was the smell of fear and panic all into one. I had to fish the damn thing out before flushing with my freaking BARE HANDS!! It never worked properly again and because I'm mean I blamed the rain and my little brother for it and yes this is not a funny anecdote but I just love reading. You get it now?
My favorite love story is Jane Eyre and I will reread this book to eternity.
I've never understood the original Romeo and Juliet and that put me off Shakespeare. Still, a friend and I stole all the Shakespeare books we could find in the school's library.
I secretly despise anyone who doesn't read and yes, that may or may not include my closest friend/roommate and my boyfriend.
And now I'm trying to write and I am not having an easy job of it.

So I read Roots, then read that book about that useless anti-heroin, Scarlett O'hara. I don't think I've ever been so angry in my life tbh. No books have ever made me feel this angry. What was the au...View all Conversations
