My husband said the minister of youth is closer to her grave than her youth 😂😂😂😭
We spend too little time talking about the rights of the wife - the rights of the husband we’re almost inculcated into everyone
Wtf why are people on these apps trying to justify invading their partners privacy😭 Hai no man. Let your loved ones rest. Trust must also be given. If you can’t let your partner/spouse have basic privacy (to their phone, accounts etc) then you have issues 😭😭😭

I failed my first set of essays in media studies in my first year at Uni, 40%!! 10 years on I’m a lecturer in the subject at the best university on the continent. My colleagues are the people I quoted in my essays as an undergrad. Stick things out, they change in astounding ways

Flex your lowest academic low score. To remind us that almost everyone fails at some point in life but it isn't the end of the road. Just a memory in the end. Mine was 27/100 in Engineering Math 2, just a year after I'd scored 99 in 12th boards. Much needed kick in my butt.

Am I the only one who feels like the last couple of days, maybe weeks of 2023 have just been feeling so odd and uncomfortable? I feel like I’m here but not really here and everything’s just a blur … I don’t particularly like the feeling, whatever it is tbh
