Dear Diary,

I woke up so early today, washing the dishes, sweeping the floors and doing all the house chores. It is quite refreshing to do work in the early hours of the morning. As usual, I was with Favour. He is picking up so fast. I read aloud to him and he could read too. I sang songs and poems to him. He really loves poems. He has a short attention span. He gets distracted easily and I can't help but condition him to stay. He loves watching cartoons. I mean, he could miss taking his meals to watching cartoons. He loves pictures, seeing real object and demonstrating in class. Favour has really taught me patience. Then, I couldn't take shit but now, I am taking all the shit in the world. Children needs time and patience to grow. I love teaching. I love going so low to the level of a child. Smiling and having a good time with him makes me happy. I love the fact that he can really express himself and he is not caged. He says what hurts him, what angers him and he expresses his feelings properly. Yesterday, my female friend called me again to come make her hair. Should I call her a friend? Not really, she isn't my friend but a person who takes advantage of others. She loves free things. I made her friend's hair and her hair sometime ago and she didn't pay me. I went to do the work with the intention of getting money only to be disappointed when I was done with the hair. I was so sad that day. She really used me. I can't go to her house anymore. She can go to the nearby salon, pay money for her hair to be made. I don't want to be used anymore and abandoned. She don't call me genuinely, but do call only when she needs help. I am tired. I am tired of being used by people. I am busy now, I have my own problems to solve and face. Let everyone go sort out the problems of their lives.

BY LOVING YOURSELF, YOU LOVE OTHERS

So it's been four months since I started working in a school in Calabar that has forty years of existence. A really old school whose facilities need maintenance. Chairs damaged, laboratory decay and everything in there looks so old. Then I wondered, what am I doing here? And I realized that I needed experience. I wanted to leave home so long as it is for learning. I learned. I saw how mismanagement can cause serious damage to a school. I saw how not treating teachers well or paying them on time could be a danger to school business. Especially changing teachers every time in school or teachers leaving a school due to ill treatment.  By loving yourself, you love others. When you love yourself, it becomes so easy to love others. It becomes easy to love your staff and pay them on time. It becomes so easy to treat people well. Elizabeth Diaries ❤️

Dear Diary, I come with so much to tell. I will tell you everything as I am your faithful girlfriend. Growing up, I had trust issues. I barely trusted my parents, so I couldn't trust anyone. I grew up to see the mess my father's bad friends and company brought us into. My father had many frienemies, not friends. They laughed, smiled, ate with him, squandered his money, but said badly of him at his absence. His friends never loved him, he was only used. His frienemies made decisions for him in his own home. My father never took my mother's advice. He said my mother was an illiterate. So, he clinged to his friends. He wasted half of his wealth on his friends and their dubious lives. My father's weakness was trusting people so much and giving his whole life to them. He never loved us, he gave all his love to strangers and neglected his family. They used him, they blackmailed him, they abused him, they messed him up. We as his family were part of the whole mess. This wa
