Many of you have heard my story before, but for those who’ve never, well, I was that very clean boy with a high-pitched voice, pretty fingers and what they called a girl’s handwriting. I neither had beards, only … Continue reading Self Control
On my way back from school last Wednesday, I picked up a package quarter way the journey back home. I got the change and gave it all to the boda boda man. (Those who are unfamiliar with that term, it simply means a taxi but on a motorbike. I paid him in advance and he … Continue reading Trust

In 2015, I was to join university towards the end of the year. Growing up, Kyambogo University was always bad mouthed. As result, no one wished to go there after high school.
