I am worthy. We are worthy.

On December 27, 2021December 16, 2021 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

Sometimes it feels like I was born to work. When I became an adult I realised that adulthood was a scam and really all I would be doing until my death was working. Sure, I tried to go for a career that I would enjoy but fam, those careers are mad competitive and it began …

It’s what I am…

On December 20, 2021December 16, 2021 By GiftIn Musings2 Comments

When I was younger I wasn’t black enough. I didn’t talk like I was black and I didn’t act like I was black but I was black. I am black. So, why did I not fit in? This was a very new concept for me as I’d moved to the UK from Rwanda so the …

Making Connections

On December 13, 2021December 7, 2021 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

As I have gotten older I have realised one of my biggest flaws. In an extrovert world I am an introvert, not only that but I’m shy too. If you want to get places in life you have t0 overcome one of these things or go for careers that suit these traits. I did not …

Being Demisexual

On November 15, 2021October 25, 2021 By GiftIn Musings2 Comments

I never thought of myself as demisexual until I started dating. When I was with my first boyfriend I was like, “Hmm, something is not adding up.” I thought I was sexual. On the scale from asexual to sexual I thought I was right by sexual. I have a high libido and I enjoy physical …

Nuances in Cheek Kisses

On November 8, 2021October 25, 2021 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

I was thinking about physical affection and how it means different things to different people. There are people who see a kiss on the cheek as the height of romance. It’s sweet, it’s innocent, it’s beautiful. I’ve known people who feel the same way about a forehead kiss. There’s something about it that is intimate …

Kenny and his Sword

On November 1, 2021October 25, 2021 By GiftIn manga, MusingsLeave a comment

I love Bleach. When I first started my blog I took the opportunity to write about Bleach and it’s characters. Since then I haven’t really re watched or re read Bleach but when Kubo came out with Burn the Witch it got me thinking about Bleach again and I’ve started to rewatch the series but …

Empathy For All

On October 11, 2021September 27, 2021 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

The title got me thinking about Midoriya and the subject of this post kind of fits with his personality and ethos… a happy accident. TRIGGER WARNING: MENTIONS OF SUICIDE LATER So this is another post triggered by something I saw in the kpop community and that got me thinking. This time it is Hyunjin. Hyunjin …

It’s All in Perspective

TW: Weight Gain and talking about weight I have talked on here about how I went up three dress sizes this pandemic. A brief update on that, I’ve been embracing it more and I got new clothes little by little (your girl is broke) so having clothes that fit and that I like has made …

Buried Memories

On September 27, 2021September 22, 2021 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

It’s amazing how one thing can bring back bad memories. I went up two sizes, no wait, three sizes over the pandemic period and I like it… for the most part. I’ll talk about that later though. Anyway, so I needed new clothes, jeans in particular. I wanted to buy things that fit my look …

All the Time?

On September 20, 2021September 20, 2021 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

Welcome to another episode of Gift doesn’t understand romance with your host Gift! Honestly I’m supposed to be a creative person and yet in some things I’m very scientific. Then again, I was a science nerd and in the top set all five years. When I read my first novels I can see that a …
