Something good

I love mathematics especially when used in algorithms.

See, I knew that I could not be the only Nigerian who enjoyed Korean dramas (kdramas). I'm not THAT special. So I turned to google, whose tab-icon I do not find particularly appealing. The white g on blue background is just not working for me for some reason.

I was watching an episode of "A Gentleman's Dignity" on Viki, one of my favorite sites to watch my Kdramas. Mysoju, ma binu, you were and will forever be my first--actually Crunchyroll was but you still hold a place in my heart. I do not remember the episode but in the comments, someone had posted that the female's lead "wahala" was too much and out came the love. The Nigerians recognized that pidgin word and the other Africans also picked up on it. It was such a beautiful moment for Nigerians to claim one another even though the comments were not in real-time. From the Nigerians came the other Africans, next came the Islanders and the other non-Korean nationalities. It was a beautiful moment, so beautiful I had completely missed the gazing into nothingness the characters were portraying, so I rewound.

And today, I found another Nigerian who enjoys kdramas and kpop: Radio Palava. My summer is officially complete. I got over my fear of roller coasters (no be me and you go enter the Intimidator, lai lai), improved my swimming, sent in my DACA application and learned to bake bread. Wetin man fi want XD?
