My Boyfriend and I - Our Sweet Union!

Without fail we meet every Friday not unless there is something else very important that i have to attend to.
For the past two year we've been together but our union has become closer this year when roles were better defined! Like any relationship, it has not been easy the commitment levels required are high but i have immensely benefited from our Friday dates and also the other events that we hold on weekends and other days. I have met many many friends as a result of our relationship, i have developed my skills and most importantly i have been able to give back to the society.

Attending Friday Rotaract fellowship meetings has been the event and Rotaract is the boyfriend between 6.30-8.00 pm.

Some of our plots have been boring while most have been thrilling. The most recent best date for me was having a saxophonist - Jackson Anduuru - come to share his experience with the instrument since he was young up to now at almost 30 yrs or there about. He further played to us some of his favourite tracks and listening to his jazz cd at home just makes my evenings so serene (not to mention it was autographed with love).

Others have been some financial guys who come to teach us on how to invest our money, a few tips on how to increase the size of the pie so that one achieves more without straining the salary.

Caroline Nderitu, the poet was also a terrific guest. She gave us great tips on public speaking and presentation...the list is long.

But the one who nailed it for me, the one who i will never forget in a long while is one Kahenya of Zuqka.com who gave us a writing assignment! We were supposed to each write an article on social media and how the evening's discussion has influenced us for some catchy reward else buy him and 29 of his pals pints. Since most of us are used to going to listen and then bounce this was a tough one and we automatically lost the bet.
