Today i turn the BIG 30,yesterday i sat for my last paper in 'ngumbaro',2 weeks from now my motherland will be beckoning and in slighly more than a month i will be fully 'depreciated'.

It's been a pleasure being part of this community,having laughed and lost together,cried when events seem to develop a life of their own early last year. I will not forget the last decade it's been crazy,fulfilling and most importantly found my own. The next decade beckons,don't know how this will turn out to be but i have an inkling feeling it might be more exciting but only time will tell.

I wanted to share this moment /feeling with you guys coz for real it's been a journey and for that i thank GOD. Cheers mates wish you all the best in your endeavours.

Happy Bday @Ric Dees. They say life begins at 40 so make sure 30-39 is a great preamble...

The part about my motherland beckons...and fully depreciating... I didn't understand,are you going back to kenya. And why are you depreciating.



I've noticed the youth in particular coming in to a workplace with a completely outsized notion of their own value and importance... just a thinly-veiled arrogance. May be the credit crunch induced recession is whats needed to remind us all about the value of hard work.... By Anonymous

Happy birthday... you can join us for the blues mbuzi for your 'welcome party'

Congrats on the marriage to be. If you marry the right lady,your value will increase exponentially.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,gracefully surrendering the things of youth. (desiderata) … so as your big bro may i welcome you to the 30's plus to married life... but brace yourself for a bumpy ride... viva sk.

@Ric,
Many happy returns and karibu nyumbani.....aint no where like home but prepare for a few adjustments,for they shall be many.From social,financial,spiritual and even some cultural ones.But all things things reduced to zero,you will be happier.

When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.
