From the show, it's now obvious Kerry shares the love of swimming with Olivia Pope, and the white suits too.

I was saddened to read the news of Adenike Ogungbe's death, not because I knew her personally, but that she was a blogger, and had died in childbirth tugged at my heart.

My mum has repeatedly told me that I'm "too dark".

In this video, Mollie showcases her mom who is just as funny and a great sport. They cracked me up several times :)

Posted in: , ,

Moving anywhere can be very daunting, especially when you're not going to be joining family or friends at your destination. When I moved here, I had Atala so it was easier, but when I moved from Nigeria to the UK I knew no one at all in Edinburgh, and though the masters programme was a stabilising factor, it was still a massive challenge.
