Hi everyone, hope you all are doing great. So today I want to tell you cuties about me and trust me it’s going to be interactive and more like am speaking directly with you.
Well there’s a saying that “Nobody gets to live life backward. Look ahead, that’s where the future lies.
So my name is Ekemini, a Nigerian by birth was born on March 28 1998, lol though not too old. Am the last born and only girl in a family of 7 in Akwa ibom state. Having grown in the arms of six boys, I will say am familiar with the guys life. Uhhh don’t quote me wrongly, I do have female friends with two female besties Grace and Dorathy. As the last born in the house I guess that’s where the name “teddy bear “ came about though most people call me “Big teddy “. At age 13 I lost my mum to a diabetic illness. Life wasn’t easy having to live with no mother nor a sister. At that point, my journey of a lonely life began.
Speaking about education, I love school a lot. I completed my nursery and primary level and furthered my tertiary education at Akwa ibom ibom state Polytechnic where I studied mass communication.
Apparently, Teddy is single though I have been to three relationships. Lost two because of distance. I broke up in one,; became I hate not being given the same energy as I do. Though I still communicate with all of them but trust me there’s nothing mutual anymore. I wouldn’t say guys are bad, I wouldn’t even say I regret meeting them because I enjoyed every moment with them plus I also learnt from them. For now I have decided to rest my head on relationships and focus more on my career.
Everyone do have what keeps them going outside the butterfly in the belly. So definitely I do have hobbies which are writing, cooking, dancing, reading and traveling. I have made a lot of friends in my little life of entertainment. I love music and dance a lot. Started dancing when I was little until today. As for food, wow I love the kitchen, my second most attractive place in a home. I am a chef by profession, worked in two eateries and two standard hotels in my state. But as they say “The difference between earning a living and living a good life is enjoying what you do”.
In my world of entertainment, I have been to many places, though within my country, Nigeria.
I will say dance is life because it’s my way of reducing depression and expressing my feelings or mode. Dance is inspiration, story, thoughts, money etc. Yeah dance is money, I recall vividly how it helped in raising extra income through my tertiary eduction especially when I couldn't ask dad for some of the bills anymore. At that point I knew I had to do something to help myself so I don’t slack behind in my education. I joined a dance crew in school and that helped me to save some money to pay my bills. Most departments contracted us to perform during their Departmental Entertainment weeks. Though the pay was little but it went a long way. That was how I sorted out most the money issues in school. Been to competitions and talent hunts in my locality, so yeah, dance is money.
I love business, an atmosphere where I control my empire. Another world where I get to meet the new and old lions in money making. Presently I deal on supplies of bottle water and juice. Plus I also own a unisex saloon in Nigeria. Fashion is another medium of communication so I intend to own a clothing/textile shop soon.
Generally, life has taught me a lot. The good, the bad and the ugly. I learn from my mistakes, other’s mistakes and my environment. We learn everyday, I mean learning never ends so I don’t have issues if am wrong and am being corrected.
I maybe the last born in the family but trust me I was raised by a disciplined man. One of my inspiration in life is the ability to always help others. I may not have much but I understand the principle of poverty and hunger, so I strive to make it in life so I could always help the needy.
I know I haven’t really had the pie in my relationships but I refuse to let my bad moment change my abilities, my smiles and above all my perspective towards people, I’ll always remain nice. Speaking of role models and mentors, I do have some which I look up to. Though I haven’t met with them before, smile I still believe in miracles.
So lovelies, I am that teddy with a lot to offer to the world in business, fashion, entertainment, food etc. I wish everyone here happy days ahead and hey always smile and remain nice.
