THE FEMALE DRIVER

A guide;

1. You can make any mistake because as a female driver it is expected.

2. Don't yield to the honking

3. Driving safely is not being a coward although all the male drivers will make you feel so

4. You are the one slowing all the traffic and once they see you they will say " Si nilikuambia huyo ni mwanamke"

5. Being stuck is commonly associated with females.

6. You are going to make a mistake anyway if you are female.

7. A car driven by a female goes for higher than one driven by male so when you are selling your car one of the things to say is "Lady Driver"

8. If a male hits you, they will always try to make you look like you really don't know how to drive so CALL YOUR HUSBAND lol

9. It's ok to insist on male companion especially since you probably don't know how to change a tyre

10. Females should always put  enough fuel. Walking with a kibuyu looking for fuel, well...

11. Always lock your doors...You can get the unexpected visitor:(

12. Pull down your windows in town.  Sometimes there are boys with human waste walking around

Blonde series 1

I went to a place whey they sell 3rd rate bootleg movies and series.

One of them was Rich dad poor dad. I asked the sales girl what it was
expecting maybe it was a documentary. She told me "i think it's a
comedy".

OF BOOKS

I have unhealthy reading habits. Sometimes i am on a reading spree and other times i could say i am on a reading sabbatical. Either way, i could say my reading habits goes back to when my dad would buy me books with titles like The sun and the Wind and also buy the Kiswahili version of Jua na Upepo.

My first books were mainly by African writers. To say i once read real African books. Of course i will be honest that apart from the collection of African poetry i have, i have hardly read a book by an African writer ever since the Son of Fate by John Kiriamiti. My attempts to read the Minister's Daughter were thwarted by the Dad ( I wonder why).

Then the days i read all the Sidney Sheldon and Danielle Steele were over.

I don't remember reading more than 2 fiction books during my campus days. I think there was too much to do besides read a book. I mean freedom to do whatever it is at whatever time and with whoever you felt  with.

So now i have just finished reading a rather gripping Memoir by Frank McCourt. A book i have had for a year. Maybe it is because sadly Mr. McCourt passed on sometimes this year and i felt obligated to read his book. It was an excellent reading. No need to wonder why people love writers of Irish origin. Let me remind you Oscar Wilde was Irish. And if you have had the pleasure to read Maeve Binchy then you have been to Dublin Ireland severally. There is something about the Irish being able to churn good stories.

Now, i am onto the Brothers Karamazov, another hugely frightening book. But since i have heard it is almost a vain life to have lived without going through this book, i have vowed to finish it. The first chapter is interesting enough!

And if you ever come by a book by Stephen King called Dolores Clairbone, do not bypass it. Read on, it's hilarious.
