Hello everyone, welcome to my blog
Firstly I want to thank @galenkp for his devotion and all his efforts he has put in bringing out topics every week.
My topic for the #weekend-experiences is " Name two things you do well and two things you do badly".
One thing I have always loved is drawing. Drawing is my passion. It's what makes me happy, it gives me a sense of purpose and self fulfillment. Drawing is one thing I am good at . I started drawing at the age of 8 , I was in primary 4 then , I could remember I was the best artist in my class. They always compared me to one of my classmates then his name was kayode. So we decided to have a drawing competition and I still beat him at it. I was that Good. I started drawing professionally in 2020 , I was in my third year in the university. I decided to start drawing professionally to serve as a means to earn income in school. I started painting last year . The picture above shows one of the paintings I made last year. My journey towards painting wasn't easy at all. But I learnt so fast I was so schocked I learnt how paint so fast.

I also love cooking. I love food so well that I had to learnt how to cook with bo consciously put effort, I didn't know how I became I great chef. I think I became good over the years.
The first time I started cooking was at the age of 13 , I and my Dad travelled together for a church program at Anambra state, Nigeria. My mom and my sister's weren't there to cook for us , so I and my Dad had to make food ourselves but we didn't cook it well. But we had no choice but to eat what we prepared , we left our food stuffs and ingredients and we finally had to buy food throughout our stay there. It was so funny and fun. It was more like I went camping with my Dad.
I left for my university education October 2016 , I started cooking because cooking was cheaper and more satisfying. But then I could still cook so well. I could remember I boiled rice and it was so sticky, I had to call my mom and she just asked " Did you parboil your rice " I laughed... I didn't know I had to parboil first before cooking. From that day on I knew how to boil rice. So I learnt gradually by cooking continuously because I always called my mom if I had any issue while cooking. I love my mom my sister so much they really helped me learn how to cook and also bake.
Sometimes, I do make the soup at home , I also bake sometimes with my elder sister.
It sounds funny, But I don't know how to ride a bicycle that's one thing I wasn't exposed to at a young age. I grew up just alone, just and I and my elder sister. It took a while till my other siblings came along. I grew up in solitude , with no body to play with . The only thing I did then was to play football that my dad bought for me. I do hit the ball and it bounces back to me that's how I played every day.
I have a terrible voice , I am so bad at it. But funny enough I was in choir in my secondary school, I wonder if my voice grew bad over years.
I hope you enjoyed reading. Thanks for reading.
