MY HOBBIES AND 'FAVORITES'

Hello esteemed reader, (warm hugs for you if you are in Kampala-Uganda....we are having a chilly day) or even the rest of the world, a warm hug won't do you bad! 

Another Friday, Another blog, Another Snap Moment

I appreciate having you here again for yet another post, it means a whole lot to me. I hope you had a fantastic Easter holiday, relaxed more and you approached this week with utmost vigor. God has been good, we are still here, we still have Patie Polly's Take.

 So today, I thought I would bring you another part of the me, yeah, apart from waking up and going to work, how is my life when the noise has faded, the streets are calm and the leaves are rustling gently against the wind? Well, if you wanna get to know more about that, stick with me, let's dive right into it down below.

To commence the 'dialogue', here is a sneak peek of what gives me a bit or a whole lotta tranquility when the sun goes down or when work is the least thing to worry about.

-Music;  if there has ever been another power on Earth(apart from love...haha) that's beyond 'normal' human understanding, it's music! Well that's my opinion.....don't come after me to hold an argument, haha.

 Many a times we all get sad, excited or sometimes we don't know exactly how we feel but there is one thing that can define our mood and that's music. It's one thing to enter a room and find your buddy listening to "I WILL NEVER LOVE AGAIN" (Lady Gaga-a star is born) and another to burst into someone's kitchen and.... "THINKING ABOUT YOU" (Ciara) is on replay. For the former, get close and give them a reassuring pat on the shoulder and for the latter, ditch the heels and join the groove!! Now you know what I'm talking about, don't you?

Get jiggy with Patie Polly's Take!

When it's a Monday and the music playing beside your dresser is "BITCH BETTER HAVE MY MONEY" (Rihanna) you're sure on the lively team that's going all in to reap the hell outta the week, the vibe is hyped up. On the other hand however, having THE LAZY SONG( Bruno Mars) hitting the waves as you reset your alarm from 7 to 7:30 am on Monday, these two moods are completely different. The later might as well call in sick at their work place,....These are my CONFESSIONS(Usher). Am I talking to somebody????

How about those specific lyrics that suit our situations? Have you ever listened to a song and when it's done you wanna say hallelujah? MERCY SAID NO(CeCe Winans), IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL(Philip Bliss)...Oh com'mon!! Sometimes we are not in that church mood or have taken some good months minus showing up at your fellowship hour but deep inside, when "YOU ARE THE AIR I BREATHE" randomly plays, It feels like you were baptized yesterday and your spirit has that spark that won't be dulled by any obstacle, are we together?

Okay, enough of the above, its official you now know music is a sweetheart to me. I listen to many genres, pop, rock, country, RnB, name it. My favorite boy band of all time is,...ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for the amazing heart-throbs of our time,...ONE DIRECTION👋👋👋 Give it up for Harry, Louis, Liam, Niall and our 'estranged' brother Zayn! Who misses theses guys like a problem? Who got their heart shattering in a million pieces when the band disbanded?  Well, a directioner like me is still a fan of each one of the former 1D guys. 

Night Changes, Up All Night, Strong, WMUB, Perfect, Best 'Songs' Ever.....gosh, i'm tearing up. I love their music.

My forever loves, One Direction

My favorite pop artist as of now is Tatiana Manaois,.....sing along with me; Helplessly, Like You, This Other Person, All This Time, and our new baby, Home!

How about my Homeland besties,...Julianna Kanyomozi is my legendary but Sheebah gives me all the vibes! Bobi Wine, is my 'bestest' against all odds, in whichever personality and everything beyond! Musically, politically, socially and swag wise, he takes the lead. Nkwagala Bitasangika(Sheebah Karungi) is a song I would listen to even if the sky was falling down. For Better For Worse(Bobi Wine) is another classic that won't fade away from my mind. In 2013, my roommates declared Juliana's Omutima Oguluma the room anthem. @Phiona @Racheàl @Sophie, I'm giving you a major throw back.

Alright, apart from music, my other major hobby is reading, novels make a third of the whole. Guess what, I enjoy reading a novel more than I do it's movie. Perfect example is the TWILIGHT SAGA series by Stephanie Mayer, i remember this one night during night prep in my form 2, i had just landed on the BREAKING DAWN novel, i had a Biology Practical exam the next day but while people were seated in discussion groups learning and mastering Bones, i was in my corner, head down reading the 3rd chapter of the novel, admiring Bella's courage......thats how far i can go for a good read! Don't ask how i performed in the practical paper,...all i know is, it wasn't good enough.

Veronica Roth's DIVERGENT series/novels is a story for another day. That Old Devil Moon, Storm breaker, A thousand Leagues Under The Sea, Jane Eyre, Little Women, Handmaid's Tale, American Gods, A walk To Remember, Wuthering Heights, A Hero To Keep, A Difficult Man, omg, the list is endless. Let me know in the comments if you relate to some of these books.

Cheers to Forever!
Bella: i know what you are
Edward: Say it(*2
Bella: A vampire
Edward: Are you not scared?
Bella: No!

Why do i feel like my list is getting exhausted? Well, movies are part of what i do when i get home but a only a few get me glued to the screen. Either there is a person i like among the cast or the movie has something like a love story and happy ending in it. One of my workmates is a huge fan of horror movies,.....that kinda stuff gives me sleepless nights. Jigsaw, Annabel's Creation.....that's not my league. I love easy going stuff like What Men Want, A star is born,(i love musicals so much) .....simple life. I remember when i was watching Bird Box, i had to close my eyes more often and wait for the thunderous sound to fade, oh dear me, i can't stand torment. What kind of movies do you like?

Other things that excite me are: Evening walks(while i chew on candy), DIY funny projects(paper cutting, sewing, home decor) i write to,....lots of stuff. I'm a loner naturally, reason you don't see stuff like partying, games,....Oh, play scrabble so much. Literally, that's me, my hobbies and favorites.
