Thank you so much!❤️
The story you once told me has been really helpful to me and always motivates me. ❤️
My Journey
As a 2002 kid, my world was filled with: spiderman, ironman, power rangers, kiteretsu, doraemon,ninja hattori!
All of them had something in common, science!
I wanted to become a scientist like kiteretsu!
Waiting for school bell to ring and going home as fast as I can!
Trying to build cardboard armour of iron man, sling shot web shooter of spiderman.
Playing with my cousins.Those were the days!
After getting into high school, took science seriously and later did 10+2 with Maths Physics Chemistry.
Then came a gap, some health issues and then came the pandemic!
At that point as I said before in fear of math took some time and then officially started BCA!
Goals
My initial goal was to be an astronomer!
Current goal: to be a computer scientist!
I like science and am kind of lazy person who wants to be sitting in his room with just a computer and do all the things, so I thought of astronomy and later programming as the right thing!
Advice to myself
Just believe in the flow and jump into the ocean!
Working on my habit of quitting easily!
@technogamerz
I love this idea of telling everyone about their story!
Thank you for this post!
And I really want to thank you for reading my posts and your support!
☺️
That honestly means a lot. Thank you ❤️ I wish you many more achievements in life. Keep going and keep shining! ✨💫❤️
Just like your song ‘Mushkil,’ I will keep moving forward. Please keep writing such beautiful songs and uploading videos.
🙌 You’re the first person to give me feedback on the song, and I honestly have no words to thank you. ❤️
Sis, this is truly a gift you’ve given your brother on Raksha Bandhan. 🥹❤️
I’ll definitely continue writing!
प्रार्थना मेरी भगवान से है,
बहन मोरी सदा खुश रहे।
चाहे मैं याद रहूँ या न रहूँ,
माता रानी का आशीर्वाद
हमेशा साथ रहे।
Happy Raksha bandhan bhai!❤️
Congratulations on the promotion! 🎉 That's brilliant news, and you clearly worked for it.
I'll be honest, reading this made my day. Genuinely honoured to be included, especially alongside people who've been here much longer and know far more than I do. Your comments have taught me things no documentation ever has.
And I did the dance. If you've ever seen an African mother get good news, you know exactly the one. Wrapper tied tighter, shoulders going first, then the feet get involved, and somebody in the next room has to come and ask what happened. That was me this evening.
Celebrate this one properly. You earned it. 🎊
Thank you so much!!! ❤️ It honestly made me really happy to hear that my comment had an impact on you. But honestly, your comments are far better and much more impressive than mine.
By the way, could you tell me the name of that dance? I’d love to look it up on YouTube. 😃
Haha, that's the thing. It doesn't have a name. It's completely improvised, and every mother has her own version that scales with how good the news is. 😄
But if you want to see the spirit of it, search "owambe dancing" on YouTube. Owambe is what we call a big Nigerian party, and that's where it all comes from.
If you want actual named dances: Atilogwu is a traditional Igbo one with a lot of acrobatics, and Shaku Shaku or Zanku are the modern street versions. Fair warning, you will lose an hour in there.
Please share the link. You know more about your culture, so I’m sure you can suggest some good videos.
Alright, found you some good ones. 😄
Start here for the modern stuff. Short playlist I put together on
Shaku Shaku, three videos, and the first one breaks it down slowly.

This next one is the honest answer to your question. You don't need
the whole thing, just the first minute or two. That entrance is
roughly how I danced. Hahaha.

And this is the one you actually asked for. Flavour, Ada Bekee. The link jumps you to 2:20. Watch the older women from there.
That is the celebration dance I was describing, and nobody
choreographed any of it.

If you want the song every Nigerian already knows by heart, this is
Ada Ada from 2013. Sixty three million views and still played at
every party.

His full channel is here if you want to fall in properly.

I'm still looking. A few I found were poor quality so I left them
out, but I'll send more if I come across good ones.
It’s good, really good! Send me some more too, I liked them a lot, honestly. I’m at home today, so I’d love to listen to them with my headphones on. Amazing, amazing, absolutely amazing! 😌
