Now that we’ve moved past that let’s start the introduction, my name is Best-Beauty and that’s one thing that always stood out about me, my name, it was something I dreaded telling people because there was always this pause and a follow up question like, ‘did your parents really call you that or na guy name’, ‘are you really the most beautiful’, my name really made me feel self conscious like I have something to prove and it still does but not in the negative way as it did when I was younger, now I feel happy and blessed because of my amazing name, so hi my name is Best-Beauty and I’m excited to start this journey with you.
I recently graduated or I’m going through the process of graduation. I studied Mass Communication in Niger Delta University and I was privileged to work as a broadcast journalist whilst I was there, it was pretty exciting and draining at the same time, let me tell you why.
In my first year I met this amazing individual who inspired me to toe the line of broadcasting for our departmental radio station, I never knew I had such a talent to speak and move crowds, with my voice and my ideas, it was exhilarating, but alas as a student doing that it had its catastrophic effects, because of how time consuming it was I lost a lot of free time and my schedule became, class, work, church. My life became exciting in its simplicity and I didn’t have as much time to socialize as I’d like to have, so we can say my social battery isn’t what I want it to be.
As inexperienced as I was during that phase of my life God still pulled me through, my 200 level saw significant changes in my ideology, as I became more open, I made a couple of friends and improved in my craft. My 3rd year saw me gainfully employed, I was so excited but that’s a story for another day.
When it drew close to my graduation, challenges started rearing its little head, but it wasn’t enough to kill my spirit. I am not currently in the broadcast field and I’m not worried because I know bigger things are ahead.
My most attractive feature to me has always been my mind, the ideas and concepts that I constructed and vocalized via my mind makes me appreciate it even more, growing up my mind was my solace it bore so many stories untold, so many realities, so many dreams and I grew to love it, I am frequently caught soliloquizing, telling myself my dreams are valid, my aspirations are achievable and my future is not yet set in stone.
Well I can’t keep you long so this is me BEST-BEAUTY, I hope this connection will prove useful.
