Day 2. A Letter to my crush

Dear Crush,

I don't want to write this.
This letter would remind me too much of how we began in endless possibilities and ended in Nothing.
 I've got a thing for boys who read books, speak multiple languages and smell good.
You are all of those.
But it seems I've also got a taste for men with no taste for me.
Do I taste dull? Do I taste stale while you taste like candy floss?
Soft and sweet but so incredibly unhealthy.
So incredibly unhealthy how many times you want to be just friends while your hand is in my pants and there's tequila in my breath.
I use to think you were awesome and it makes me sad to watch your light flicker the faster I run away.
I wanted to be friends. But you lied.
I can't stand lies.
Not when I'm giving you all of myself.
I can't stand lies.
Not when I'm giving all of myself.

_ Nothing

DAY 5 A LETTER TO YOUR DREAMS

How are they so many of you? Lord. I can't keep up. Maybe I take too many naps and sleep too long. I feel like I'm always chasing... Always so confused and for a very long time I sat and watched. Then I turned twenty. And as if for some reason God decided that Twenty was the year. Doors opened and we walked through. I can see you clearly now. Everyday's to do list is one step closer to I made it. And every sleep less night is one less dream and for once I'm really glad man. I'm really fucken glad I'm not feeling like you're slipping away. I'm trying to keep up. I'm really trying to stay awake.

My Valentine Date Ideas

Although I’m perpetually single every year since forever a friend of mine asked what ideas I had for dates in Gaborone that didn’t include food. This single girl may not be having a valentine date, but I do have some dope ideas on how you can take your partner out for a little fun and different romance in this small city of hours. Some of these activities do cost a little bit of money however, remember that romance is not just about money but rather about thoughtfulness. For valentines my advice is to pick a gift or date that shows your partner you pay attention to them, listen to them, and put thought into making sure they are happy. This list does include some food ideas because my personal preference is to be well fed on dates. So, in no order, here are my valentine date ideas for 2018: 1. Bounceland Although the place is considered ideal for families, bounce land is a great active date idea for you and your partner. It’ll allow you both to get in touch with your inner child, ...
