Hehe. So 31st of December 2017 was filled with great anticipation of what the year 2018 would be! Now that night all the food belonged to the stomach and pots and dishes washed! For who would eat "A Year old food"?! 🤣😂. Yep it is actually a tradition practised at my maternal side of the family and this year we actually did that religiously in my family. Picture below can testify.

So as a Nigerian christian how would you forget to go to church to pray and usher in your blessings for the coming year? Nah! You dare not! So "your village people" will not mess with your destiny o! Lol. Ok ok, the new year eve was spent at the church service where I got motivated, inspired and blessed to take on the new year and soar effortlessly in life hence forth! The very seconds into 1st of January 2018 I was in church with so much crowd overflow. Yes we are religious like that here! No apologies. Lol. We danced and screamed for joy happy that the Good God has answered our prayers for the upcoming year this was celebrated with praises and thanksgiving songs as well as fireworks too! Here are video clips of the very seconds into 1st of January 2018.

The next day I took my hairstylist-(turned friend) out for her birthday where we had pizza, coldstone icecream and watched a movie (Thanks to Steemit!); we also enjoyed the beautiful seasons decorations and lightups (which we barely see shine except for the christmas and new year celebrations) here are some pictures of our new year outings. I believe this year would be a successful year in my life for this years entrance was done in style- blessing someone with the little I have! That's my joy to be a blessing always.

So my sister and I made resolutions to eat fruits and vegetables as our main diet (For we were both the "big bones" of the family, No not fat ). We were skeptical if we would pull through so we took this picture. Hehehe.

Lol. For we both knew how impossible that would be for we both craved for pizza at that moment.
