Every good and lasting things sprung from sweat and blood hence,whatever is attained or got out of ease, easily slip away.
"Easy comes easy go".......
Why am i saying all these?
Because, this is supposed to be an introductory piece but here am i, blabbing.....
Never mind me! i'm just beating around the bush perhaps the right words will find me.
What's your name?
My name is Sunmonu Dorcas Medese but my friends do fondly call me "Dee", just to cut some hassle in pronouncing a disyllabic name,it's funny though!
Got any nicknames or pen name?
Hmmm......Yes, i do!
Have gat three wholesome nicks.
One,Dee.
Two,Delight.
And lastly,Medemausi.
Aren't they beautiful names? They are right?
However, there's one oddly spelt name among those nicks,care to tell us the source and it meaning?
That should be Medemausi right? okay!
Medemausi simply means "One in God's hands"is a name inspirely coined from my two birth names which are, "Medese" and "Mausi".
Both names are indigenous,indigenous you mean they're your native names?Yes! I am a native of " Ogu tribe".
Ogu?
Ogu ( usually mispronounced and misspelt as "Egun") is an ethnic group located majorly in Lagos and Ogun State in Southwestern Nigeria.
A large population of the Ogu people dominantly situate in Badagry ; It's a coastal town and Local Government Area (LGA) in Lagos State,Nigeria. It's quite close to the city of Lagos and located on the north bank of Porto Novo creek.
.
Got any Academic Qualifications too?
I'm a graduate of one of the most rated university in West Africa named, Lagos State University,there i majored in Accountancy and Education.
So,what's the oversight of your profession considering what you studied in school?
Well,a quick guess could have been, becoming a Teacher, Lecturer or an Accountant though, i do not know which of these it's gonna be for sure,i might even manoeuvre to a line of another profession however, i sure know i wanna be a renowned and prolific Writer in spite of anything.
Hmm.....But why a Writer?
Writing helps me to relieve myself of many burdens, It's my way of connecting myself to another world,
It's a way of imparting and empowering lives with in letters,words and sentences that transcends beyond it literal meaning.
Writing is everything to me........
Smiles! This sounds too serious and personal.
So,if you aren't writing,what else do you do to relieve yourself from stress?
I sometimes read,
Most times see a good movie,
Oftentimes, Eat,
And sparingly take a walk.
Favorite food and color, Got any?
Smiles! Have got none.
I take in any good meal and go for any color that suit me for the day. Shikena!(nothing more,nothing less)
It's been a long way coming.
Finally, what're your career objective as a writer in this space.
To seamlessly articulate contents that will serve all and yonder and also to inculcate more knowledge and trends going on in my specialization within the auspices of this space, towards an efficient and effective professionalism.
That's quite so simple right, so plain and short.
At this point, I'll like to make a closing remark but before that, I can't but help to give honor to whom it is due to.
A big shout out to Ayomide! @moremoney28
He's a friend i met through a friend who introduced this platform to me. In his words, "Dee! i know of platform that will refine you into a better writer".
And seriously, anything that'll make me better, I'M GAME! So,that's how i found myself here and I love the ambience already.
Thank you for reading and holding up till this moment,i look forward to learn more and give more to this space.
