Soliloquy

Am i weird?

Can't really answer.

Many people think i am.

In fact, i even think i am myself.

My actions, growth, dealings with others, everything about me.

Some feel that i just seclude myself and I'm drowning in misery.

Others conclude that i'm uneducated and lack exposure.

They're neither right or wrong sha.

What's then my own issue?

Let's say i'm my own kind of person.

I don't fancy the things wey other people fit die for.

Told someone i won't want to go for higher education and it sounded in his ears like thrash.

I'm just me, that's all.

Fancy cars, too much money, fine fine girls, and the likes?

Just count me out.

Not that they're bad stuffs, but they do not really interest me.

I believe that wealth does not necessarily determine happiness.

And what's life without being happy?

Someone came to my house last night and talked about going abroad for school and i debunked the idea.

Mind you, i ain't scared of anything, but i don't just wanna go with the flow of things wey my blood no rhyme with.

Other peeps my age would kill for offers like this, but me?

E no concern me.

Am i mentally unstable?

Nahhhh, far from it.

I just wan dey my dey.

I like money, normal, but i just want the basics.

People say they aren't content with where they are, but afa, i am.

Most individuals got their whole lives figure out, planning and daydreaming about how their life would be like in five, seven years, but me?

Those plans aren't in my dictionary.

I don't believe in long-term goals, yea, there was a time when i did, but not anymore.

I just want to live, today and lockup.

If tomorrow come, i survive.

If i no fit survive, i perish.

I feel like I've gone through a time machine to the future and saw that at the end of it all, it isn't really worth it.

So what do i really want?

I just wan chop oil rice inside cellophane.

Oil rice wey fresh pepper and onions catch well, wey dem scatter bonga put with two giant eggs.

I just wan watch my Korean series for outside around 2am with sweet breeze.

I just wan lie down ontop tiles dey roll back and front.

I just wan bath inside rain and swallow some rain water.

I just wan chop overripe plantain and dry garri.

I just wan chop starch and indomie.

I just wan dey.

Now, back to the question....

Am i weird?
