It’s been a while and I low key missed this but to all my few readers, what’s up I missed you all because I know you all. Anyways am going to get into why I haven’t been posting on here but not todayπ
Today let’s just appreciate what we are currently loving or obsessed with! For me am so inloveee with Avocados (OMG) the color, the taste ugh I can never have enough and am also loving the color green never been a fan but these days it just brightens my little world in its wayπ
Let me just say this everything won’t always go as planned it’s what I’ve learned and am still learning because it’s just hard to comprehend because why can’t things just go my way! Anyways if there’s anything am learning it’s definitely to live in the moment, let tomorrow worry for itself and I’ll just enjoy the gift of now with people I have and genuinely love.
You know I kinda thought having a roommate will be so horrific and terrifying but with my cousin, ughhh I love her she practically spoils me even though we recently had our first fight and she pissed me off and I pissed her off too and went to report to my mum like I was innocent, anyways there will be fights but you just need to understand each other because if you do I believe you can go from there.
This is becoming long but please somebody should tell me to go and update #Celebrity on Wattpad! I’ve been putting it off so much am pissed at me but I can’t do anything!
Hopefully you enjoyed reading this and if you did you know the drill; follow me on IG@_sirwillie because am active on there(most of the time) and Twitter@willieferdinand3 am funny there or so I like to think…hehehe. If you made it here a big green hug from me to you and a free avocado emoticon too!ππ₯
Was not going to write this but I realized that, yho! Life isn’t perfect at all like you could act like you’re good but no sometimes life gets you. The past week and up until now my life hasn’t really been perfect at all I mean they’ve been ups and downs, twist and turn but amidst all this am trying to really stay positive and navigate through life because if I break down that will just be worse and breaking down is never an option!
So if you’re out there feeling the way going through the same or worse or less just know that you ain’t alone and it will surely pass. Like I’ve seen God show up for me when I thought it was over and if you woke up this morning just know that that’s God saying Am not done withyou yet!
This is just like a practical example; right now people in Houston, Texas are having some type of winter storm, there’s like snow everywhere, the lights and water are going off and people are freezing to death meanwhile in most parts of Africa it’s freaking hot! My sincere prayers are with everyone homeless or cold and if you see any videos on how to deal with cold pop up on your social media please share it could help someone.
Oh and my gas just finished and it’s night and am freaking hungry, again life! Just live life don’t wait for something to happen just do it!
That’s a wrap for today make sure you stay healthy and safeπ
So y’all know how they say unplanned outings are the best? Bruhhhh they ain’t lying!
So my cousin and I have kinda been feeling down for the past couple of days like it’s always one problem or the other and I was like you know let’s just stroll out a bit. We did and then randomly decided to just go out and have pizza because; “problem no dey finish for this life o”. So we might you know enjoy it while we can!
So we went and then ended up getting ice cream and shawarma! How lucky of us…hehehe. Anyways I really love my cousin I just wanted to let y’all know.
Another sweet thing happened too. So I saw a tweet sometime ago and it says; do not ever underestimate the power of prayer! And I never miss my morning devotion (well not necessarily intentional anyways) but I prayed as usual this morning and I declared: I will find favor wherever I go today! And boy I did find that favor there was something I was working on and I thought I might not get it but I did! And am giving all the glory to my father in heaven. So i just want to say that prayer with faith does really work. And as my blog banner will say there’s gold and purple in every day if only you look closely enough!
That’s it for today’s blog I hope this made you smile while reading it and if it did, it always means Jupiter to me if you follow this blog,like it and share with someone πππ
Am writing this late because I thought nothing really special happened today but I was wrong. Am here watching To all the boys: Always and forever. Don’t worry am not watching it alone my cousin is here with me even though she fell asleep π
So to today’s blog post: Love. I could write an entire book on it because hey everyone has something to say about love right? Maybe not everyone but most people do. Love is hard y’all, love is crazy, love is painful, love is the most wonderful thing anyone could ever experience in their lives. Love teaches you a whole lot; it breaks you then it fixes you, makes you cry, and makes you smile so much your cheek hurts. Today is Valentine’s and as much as we all want to spend it with someone, some of us can’t and that’s why love is sacrifice. There a lot of instances of this but the end remains the same: if you want something in the long run sometimes you gotta sacrifice. I wanna say let it free like a bird if it comes back to you it belonged to you and if don’t well you know where you stand but my bestie will say you should hold on to what you love fight for it if you love it, so you see the shit is complicated and easy at the same time it’s where I say follow your heart because it knows what’s best for it. Love is a beautiful thing and although am giving free hugs to anyone who didn’t receive gifts or get to spend the day with a loved one, I know you’ll find love. Love is for everybody. Oh and don’t forget to have a meet-cute it’s how you know you’re gonna end up together. A bit cheesy but I heard it in the movie too don’t blame me.
Anyway that’s it for today hope it was fun or atleast normal….. Goodnight π€
So today my cousin kissed our friend they’ve been talking for a whole week and yesterday it happened I kinda saw them but I played dumb cuz I wanted the full gist you know like what led to what anywho she has a freaking boyfriend! And she kissed someone else? Is that considered cheating? According to her they just caught feelings and it happened. In my head am like okayyyy but you wanna talk to him more and you enjoy his presence and Valentine’s is tomorrow. And another twisting stuff is that another friend of ours likes her too and according to her she’ll rather go for the one that likes her than the one that she kissed because he’s more mature. Ahem people of God! I don’t know what I’ll do if I was in her shoes but what I know for sure is she loves her boyfriend and sometimes people’re caught up in the moment and just flow with it. Finding out the gist was interesting enough but if being placed in a situation like that I’ll stick with my boyfriend….why? Because we just caught feelings right? Love is tricky y’all a lot of people out here wanting to find that stuff but ain’t ready to put in the effort. It’s not that hard though.
That’s it for today I feel like it was short but then that was the highlight of my day. If you’ve ever been in a situation like this tell me what you’ll do and if not tell me what you’ll do if you were placed in a situation like this π
I hope your Valentine’s day turns out well and if not come here let’s cry together I have tons and tons of hugs for everyone π€ ok byeeee
Hey, y’all it’s been a while since I last posted and that’s my bad but I’ve been thinking about changing up things a bit. This blog will now be an everyday post basically about what happened that day kinda more like a diary sort of except you read this one of course.
Hi, am Willie welcome to Purple N Gold. I hope you enjoy it hereπ
My friend woke up to the tragic news of him losing his dad to the cold hands of death this morning. How did he feel? I can’t say but for someone who’s naturally bubbly to suddenly be quiet with red eyes, it’s bad. The worst part? I don’t know how to comfort him. I remember last year February when I lost an uncle who was very dear to me and like a dad; I cried, slept-cried, and cried again it took a while for me to get myself and not cry at the mention of him. We had fun the night before gisting and laughing, eating late too but this morning? The atmosphere is like dusk even though the sun is smiling today. What am I trying to say here? We get blessed with a new day because God is not done with us yet. You might have plans ready to go but things can go right or wrong that’s why we have hope, hope for things to go our way, and hope for us to be able to face the worst if presented with one. That’s it for this blog post today. How do you deal with tragedy let me know so I can help a friend?

Do you have sudden irritable mood swings that just immediately put you in a bad mood? Or does something just puts you off? Well you are not alone, I’ve felt like that the entire week and making me not be able to do anything except this blog post(lol), anyways here are three (3) tips to help you out, they have helped me out and am positive it works!
π¦ Take a bath:
I know it sounds cliche but the idea of you taking a bath and washing your body could mentally help. How you may ask? Well, it helps you mentally also just wash away your stress and helps you relax more. You’re focused because you just want to clean your body.
π¦Do your skincare and wear clean clothes:
Taking care of your body is love. You love your body and you wanna look good because It boosts your confidence. And once again you’re just focused on it. You wear clean clothes because you feel fresh and clean. You could wear anything as long as you feel comfortable in it.
π¦Sleep!
Whatever is wrong with you or putting you in a bad mood, you could deal with later when you’re less stressed out and in a refreshed state of mind. God knows I will give any excuse just to sleep! Sleeping is so therapeutic: it helps you rest and be calm when you finally wake up. Plus when you sleep,you’re not thinking of anything at all your body, mind, spirit is also resting which is wonderful!
Okay guys that’s it for this blog post those are my helpful tips and I hope it helps you too. If you found this helpful please like and subscribe and comment on what your favorite tip is and share because this might help someone. And lastly, thanks for reading it always means a lot to meπ
Hi, I’m Willie and this is my blog, welcome to my little worldπ
Mornings are definitely not everyone’s favorite time of the day, because mornings are early but most importantly mornings are a sign of a fresh start and new beginnings. Am not even about to ask you to be a morning person because we’re all different and different things works for us, we all have our preferences and it’s beautiful, It makes us, us. I am here, however, to encourage and enlighten us on how to make the most out of our day of which mornings are vital as it sets the tone for the day!
How can you make the most out of your morning?
Here are a couple of things to helpπ
π¦. First of you need to decide within yourself that you are going to wake up not just wake up but try to wake up early. Now studies have shown that the successful person wakes up early. Why does he/she wake up early you might ask?
1…Do you know that waking up early reduces your stress level? Well, it does and it makes you feel refreshed. Like the proverb says the early bird catches the worm.
2… Getting up early gives you a kickstart for the day and sets you ahead.
3… Waking up early can only mean one thing that you go to bed early too.
π¦ After you must have decided you’re going to wake up early you need to create a routine for yourself. I personally have a routine that works for me and I try to stick to it. Every successful person has a routine because it keeps them in check and that way they’re not confused about what to be doing. If you’re interested in seeing a simple routine of an idea of a routine, leave a comment and I will make a post about it.
π¦ Discipline: yeah, discipline because in order to stick to this you have to be disciplined to see desired results.
π¦ Eat breakfast: of course, am gonna mention foodπ . Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. When you sleep for 8 or more hours you don’t eat so it’s important to replenish our body with breakfast. People tend to skip this probably because they are fasting, on a diet, etc but if you’re not do not skip breakfast because it makes your mornings too.
π¦ Enjoy it and have fun with it: You really don’t have to be grouchy about waking up. Waking up early is fun and packed with lots of benefits and it makes you productive! So give it a try and you’re welcome π

Welcome to Purple N Gold. Am Willie and this is my blog. Am so excited to be writing my first blog. Before we get into anything else, how’s quarantine with you? I hope you’re holding up just fine it’s hard times and you could easily get irritated and loose track of everything around it’s normal I feel like that most of the time too. Don’t even try to beat yourself up for feeling that way instead allow yourself feel anything but don’t let it consume you, you could be feeling unmotivated,not able to do anything, it’s okay… remember that not doing anything is okay but don’t forget to take care of yourself. Wake up, be grateful for another#quarantine day, drink water,put in some exercise or yoga, take your bath, do your skincare,eat breakfast etc remember taking care of yourself is being productive too. I twitted something the other day: if you’re so fortunate to be with family during this period be grateful because at least you have someone to annoy you. I am not that fortunate to be with family during this time, I couldn’t travel back home and am stuck alone but am praying and hoping this ends soon so I can be reunited with my family because I miss them so much. If you’re in this same position as I am just know that you’re not alone and am sending lots of love and hugs to you, hoping you stay safe for me! So I’ve got a bunch of things I’ve been doing while stuck alone πyou might be interested in trying them out yourself. You could do this whether or not you’re stuck alone.
List of things to try out while in quarantine
π¦ Cooking: since am stuck at home I have to start cooking for myself am not really a big fan but I’ve been enjoying it so far. Playing with recipes and stuff
π¦ Sticking to a routine:it sounds cliche but honestly I’ve been trying alot to stick to a routine and I’ve found out that it has kept me on track and am more aware of everything.
π¦ journaling: am a huge journal fan and when this whole thing started I kind of lost track but am back and am so glad I found out am more aware of my thoughts and my day!
π¦ self care and pamper: yes pamper. I draw a hot bubble bath and drown in it(just joking not literally drown) just lay down for a bit allowing the water to calm me. Nail salons are closed of course and I’ve been enjoying doing my pedicure and manicure and am thinking I might never just need to go to a nail salon again, okay maybe once in a while π and also my hair has grown a lot since this lockdown and it’s because I’ve been taking care of it more. To know my secret just make sure to like this blog and comment
π¦ Reading: It is very important to read books especially books that can uplift you and add value to you as a person it can also calm you because in my opinion when you read, you simply take a voyage and enjoy everything. Am a writer too and I have a book on #wattpad @keembarbra make sure to check out my book celebrity!
π¦ Tik tok: of course I was gonna mention tik tok I mean everyone is there at this moment. Am a bad dancer but with tik tok I’ve not only been able to learn how to dance but also to entertain myself during this time.
π¦ Talking to family and loved ones: Now that am alone I find out that I am connecting with my family and friends allot more because it makes me feel closer to them at least.
π¦ Watch movies: what else to do than binge watch movies? I watch alot of my favorite movies some I’ve watched like a thousand times already and some new which am falling in love with. Comment and let me know what your favorite movies are and what shows you’re currently watching.
π¦ praying and meditation: it’s hard I know and I struggle too but I find out that am more at peace when I pray and hand over my problems, worries into the hands of HE who can help me and I meditate too from time to time. If you’re not a spiritual person that’s fine you could meditate it helps to calm you and allows you to control your thoughts more.
π¦ Hydrate: please please please drink water and get some vitamin D don’t ever forget and in case you did am here to remind youπ
π¦ #Stayhome#Staysafe: Because I love you please do help curb the virus by staying safe and staying home so all of us can go back to our normal lives. Remember that there are people who aren’t able to work because of this and there is us the students who need to get back to school.
