On 8th Thursday September at school as we had an arrangement of a surprise welcoming our beloved madam, lecturer , parent, friend actually because she encompasses all of them .
In the beginning of this year she encountered a tragic accident following another lecturer Mr Mudoola who’s also teaching us but her’s was too severe that she had to have a problem in getting back to her feet , for some months now she wasn’t able to come back to her normal routine , we missed her in class , I guess some other students at Kingsgate missed her voice because while she was in the computer lab teaching some students would be in the lobby making noise after class , while she’s teaching us . Here she would handle the situation by heading there and say ,” please may excuse us we are having a class and finish your conversations from elsewhere” that’s if she hasn’t asked Hans or Asher to go chase them away.

So as a class we tried to come up with a small gesture to show our sincere gratefulness eventhough all happened we didn’t lose them both and happy the Almighty God protected them through the whole time they were hurting physically,mentally and emotionally because having an accident is not a tip of ice berg. It was all God who enabled them to come back to us and we are thankful.
And as we were celebrating there’s what I noted precisely from what Mr Mudoola said. He said more of telling an experience saying that in all this what do we learn , stressing that life and such situations bring to us the power of togetherness, like what you have shown to us today. Keep on doing it not only here but everywhere you go, the most important thing to people that encounter such incidents is that healing comes from people that are around us . He continued saying that at first when we visited madam at the hospital bed as other fellow staff her can testify , she was excited and claiming that she’s fine; being truthful she wasn’t because I have passed through that experience and I was never okay , I also had a sister who also passed through it and believe me it wasn’t either and will never be easy but the courage to heal comes from our friends family and this that you have portrayed. He stressed saying okay yes, financial help is also necessary but the crucial issue is care and healing which starts from within where material things can’t touch .

Madam Nnagandya sumayah took this opportunity to thank the journalism department and staff , the university at large and all the journalism students for the help they gave her and saying her gratefulness to be part of this whole community that has become family . As we were wrapping up she brought up a suggestion she hoped as journalism students, as Cavendish we could be able to adopt in her explanation , I noted some key points that some tragic things happen and we aren’t and never prepared for them , so as a community we should start up an association , that will be able to help any of our colleagues who may need help , let it be tuition, graduation fee, an illness or any other thing the main thing is offer a helping hand both financially and emotionally in form of a family that look out for each other like the saying goes a friend in need is a friend indeed , where Mr Mudoola added that such an association can also be able to help you in your experience at campus, by interacting with other universities’ students doing the same course , also you students to bond and know each other more by coming up with events outside class , you get to know others in the same course but different years , even with lecturers yo get to find them outside class interact with them and know them in different perspective out from that of class where some are too strict , you get to see another carefree side then . Let’s spread love to the world which starts with us here in this small community through this togetherness that you have showed in this room let it produce oneness forever even after here.

She concluded by thanking the organisers who were Bakiza Asher , Ayikoru Kevin and everyone else present physically and virtually who made this celebration that filled jovial smiles possible through their coordination and truthfulness.
I the writer will thank everyone that put in their contribution as the BJC 4 class to come up with this gesture that symbolizes togetherness , let’s keep it not only here but to stay with that within beneath human eyes which makes you the people we see . I myself I’m proud to be part of you as a classmate, friend and family . And for the lecturers we love you so much for always being there for us , as teachers , parents, counsellors to not only teach us what we are supposed to study in our courses but giving us advise that changes us to be responsible people . Those small words you always say in class some drill in and engrave themselves in our hearts core being able to help us in our daily lives away from Cavendish.

Forever grateful for everyone .

Today I was seated at a corner in one of the lecture rooms my mind filled with many thoughts all colliding and I hadn’t figured out what to think about,then there came my course mate ,he is an upcoming musician,a YouTuber and also a blogger . I remember there’s this one time when we were all seated in class and they asked him, what would you want to become .

Without too much thinking he just uttered it out , ” I want to become a blogger,” I mean I can’t lie to you and say that I wasn’t amazed by his confidence and straightforwardness of knowing what he really wants to be unlike some of us like me who just wake up go to class then head back home without any difficulty and life moves on. Ooh sorry I hadn’t briefed you about how I’m a journalism student at Cavendish university Uganda. I love writing but since my course of study I haven’t been active, all my time I have spent it in asking my colleagues each and every time I get on how to become a good writer , and I think sometimes they all also get tired of my unending questions . What I can say is that but as the bible also says faith without works isn’t enough here it applies that speaking without writing isn’t enough to become a writer. So today I have decided to write, recite until I get to write better. As one of the things I love in writing is that it cools the mind, reduces the load that’s on the heart and shouts out our deepest part of us . My writer friend once told me if you want to be a good writer then you should first be a good reader , after know and grasping that you will be able to achieve that one thing you yearn for. You will first see things as if they aren’t working to your terms but eventually everything works out. The other thing she told me was to be confident when that time comes , you have to first trust , appreciate yourself before you expect that from others, recall that nervousness will always be there but you have to be a persister if you are to be successful in this journey of writing you have chosen. She told me to be ready and be prepared for critiques and freely listen if you are to learn and lastly not the least not to forget that everything in life is what you make it regardless of

It being in other various things like studying, writing, working, socializing all things in life are possible and you can define them . She took an example of me , if don’t first acknowledge yourself by accepting that you are beautiful and unique how will you really be convinced by some other person’s opinion. I also realized that she was right I had to write and love what I write if I want to be a good writer . Which I’m now doing as we witness here she might have spoken and thought I left everything there but her words stuck to my mind which I’m thankful for. Writing eases my heart and brings hope for the best in tomorrow I’m yet to reach . I love

Love you and pray the creator keeps blessings me to see through that I write until I write. Keep blessed all of you .

I would ask the one who owns me two disturbing questions. Why does my master trust me this much, why do I have to listen to his top secrets,why do I have to hear the things he doesn’t tell the world. Could it be because I do every task he commands? Could it be that I never hesitate to do all of them immediately. Am I the only one that listens to his crazy ideas and confusing thoughts?
Secondly, is I think of why he puts a password on me. Could he be hiding something from the outside? Could it be fear of entrusting the world with his loved ones in it? Could it be fear of judgement and critism? Well if phones could speak I would say a million of these things and the world be a little different.

It’s never too late to turn the chapter of your life and see what you are doing,compare it with what you wanted to become that which makes you smile and happy even when you are filled with surrounding circumstances that are against you trying to prove that you are wrong. There is always a way to follow your heart and passion by pursuing that which is the only way to happiness regardless of what others think of it. It’s your decision to follow what makes you happy and prove to yourself that you can achieve that instead of living a life trying to prove others wrong . Remember when you do what you like you fill happy, because happiness can not be travelled to,owned,earned ,won or consumed rather it’s just a feeling that not any of us can know how long it will last.
So you have to see what you are doing whether it’s giving you happiness and peace of mind or you are just there to please your boss and may be your family and loved ones. When you realize that what you have been doing is not what makes you happy ,you start seeing that you have spent all your years worrying about what people think about you instead why don’t you try worrying about what you want to be,think about yourself for once.And then after realising who you are, accept it and pursue that instead of labelling yourself some funny words like failure,loser, which is a negative impact to you. A negative mind can never produce positive fruits but if you see the mistakes you make and think with a positive mind saying that you have learned through your mistake proceed by removing yourself from that label of being a failure then you are going in the right direction of progress.
Remember you are who you are and nobody can ever take that away from you. Yes let’s say you may be feeling down because you are always comparing yourself with others, like on your size that you are big , small and start losing confidence that you are not beautiful enough. But so what your body doesnot define who you are, the real person is the one inside that we can not feel touch but can only project through your body and mind.
You should know that you are special then show it to the world and prove those that think you are not worthy wrong by projecting your capacity. Stop living in the shadow of others instead of living your life that you will be proud of. Try not to be moved by the circumstances surrounding you and people’s words because the biggest challenge the world can provide is being yourself, in a world trying to prove and make you like everyone else.
Try to live your life the way you want to live it and don’t let other people live it for you . Life is something that is unpredictable you can never know what will happen tomorrow, so you should live the moment and try to look for happiness and remember to look for positive things in others without any expectations. Because you may end up being disappointed, instead believe that everything happens for a reason.
After taking the right direction meaning you have followed your heart by doing something you love, even if you get some problems on the way be strong nobody said that it would be easy and flawless just that it will be worth it.

Quashing everyone who rises
Rising with mission
Falling with no reason
Feeling lost in the journey
Fear letting in the void
Now searching for meaning
My heart aching for all
Those lost souls who
We’re found lying down helpless
Leaving scars in ever home
In our fight for freedom.
Are we still doing that, it looks like a society
Full of scandals only to make news
Everyone blaming each other.












HOME IS NOLONGER HOME.
She was my dream come true
Growing up under her gaze
Moulding, and nurturing
Me to know the good and bad
What really twisted my sweet home
Leaving no trace
Paradise becoming prison
Teaching me how to smile
In theory but practically finding
Crying as the best option
Celebrations turned to mourning
Loved one’s go missing still it’s okay
The voices of freedom are
The sources of entertainment
They are never noticed
Yet she keeps claiming we are united
Have peace, which I have no clue of
Daytime is our hope ,and liberty
Night time everyone is trembling
Not knowing whether tomorrow will come.
She is now my nightmare.

Many are there but starting is the problem that can be understood because it’s normal to have that feeling in you. But have some courage and say it out there are actually many ways you can let it out.

Are you a songwriter, an artist, a writer just do that thing that makes you free yourself maybe your parents want something different or you are the problem limiting yourself from doing something new. Something that makes you express what you feel and voice it out.T

This helps you help other people who are in the same situation and also are looking for that hope that thing that can give them the confidence in starting what they like and don’t know how to start it. You might save different people who are there voiceless and act as a vent where they also let out there ideas . This will make you feel at ease knowing that there is one or two people being helped through your say .

Starting might be a bit hard but the moment you try you will never give up because where there is a will there’s a way . We are sometimes just confused to concentrate on what the possible solution would be at that moment. Life is made up of our hustles whether you are worrying or happy life will move on. So it’s you to say this is it the moment I have been waiting for, I will not wait for the future.

That’s what I feel about it so do your thing I will also do mine. Live your life not for others but yourself, remember don’t rush things let them move at their pace.

We all have different opinions on what we think and like , admire but what exactly are you into is it cooking , are you a sports person do you like entertainment do you like making people laugh smile. Are you a comedian are you a business person . Are you a writer , maybe a singer ,a songwriter name it …..the list is actually long but you know what you like and feel happy doing it.

Yeah everything is just there for us to decide and do . Don’t wait for the future. The future starts now with your decision you are the one to make it and live it and later become proud of it . Remember it’s all your choice others are just advisors but you have the final say.

Starting will be a little hard and you will have that feeling of giving up. But you have to stay positive with everything you are going to do, believe me there’s never a simple beginning but believe me the ending is always good . Because as the saying goes you reap what you sow. You can’t sow fear and reap courage.
