What's been up???
I've been away from my Hive blog for about 5 days now. This is the longest I've gone without writing a personal blog, however, this doesn't mean I've been away from Hive entirely. I realized that I can't be completely away from Hive no matter what I do.
source For one thing, I have a lot of Hive people in my life. Around this time last year, I didn't have these many Hive people in my life. So while I could be trying to avoid Hive, I'd find myself in conversations with @samostically or @starstrings and sometimes even @khaleesii reminding me that I have a life that I can't get away from.
Then again, I can't go a day without writing. I think I wrote for 3 out of the 5 days I was away. I have my freelance gigs and then my commitment to the @hive-naija community that I can't look away from.
So, what have I been up to over the last couple of days?
The highlight of my days off has to be my new phone I got last Saturday. Took a lot out of my wallets that I've been thinking about ever since I made the payment but it was totally worth it.
My old phone was still pretty clean but it just couldn't handle the amount of speed I needed to work with. It was a Samsung A02. I got it coz I urgently needed a phone so it was only $100 at the time. I believe it served its purpose and it was time to move on.
I've never gotten a new phone while my old one has absolutely no fault before so making this purchase was kind of hard for me. I planned that it would be a big deal so I saved the moment for my 24th birthday on the 5th of March but I realised I needed to speed things up a bit.
I got my new Xiamomi Redmi Note 10s for a little over $250. In naira, it's about N135,000. That's slightly more expensive than my laptop but I got my laptop at a second-hand price so it doesn't matter so much.

My new phone is dope. So, unlike other temporary devices I buy, I've given this one at least 2 years of comfortable use until I decide to get an upgrade.
The phone was total love at first sight for me because I had initially planned on getting a second-hand iPhone XR but I had an experience with an iPhone a few days after I made the decision to buy a phone and I realised that device would be way too much pressure for me. I like my easy to use Androids. iPhones have always been stressful for me.
I might get one eventually when I have enough random money to waste just so I can learn how to use it but for now, I'm good with what I understand.
Right after getting my new phone, it took me about 2 days to finally move all my relevant information and documents from my previous phone before formating it and giving it to my mom as an early birthday present.
It costs $100 currently and it's a thousand times better than the phone she currently has, plus, it's very easy to use. She's pretty happy with it and that's good enough for me.
I also finally got my Chaos Legion packs. I did set a reminder so once it was time, I got my 25 packs and then a few days later, my brother @belemo gifted me 2 more.
I've currently opened just 2 out of curiosity but I think I'll be opening only 7 and keeping the rest until I can figure out what to do with them. I need a couple more potions though so I'll get to that before I open some more.
I think that's all I've been up to since my Hive strike. I told Sam last night that all I need is to get 1 word down and then the words will start flowing. I guess I'm back.
So, what have I missed?
