When I was home last year I made sure to visit my favorite primary school teacher, Mrs. Gacheru. She taught me Geography and she just loved me. She once walked many kilometers to our house to correct a mistake she had made in class 😭. Good teachers are priceless.
When did Itumbi become an infectious disease specialist?
@MarkMasai
, this is a fail. Interview MoH folks. Or Dr. Bulimo who's the director of the National Influenza Center, KEMRI/Walter Reed. He would at least have the 411 on testing plans. SMH
Really excited to share that I'll be starting a new position as a Technical Specialist in Intellectual Property at a Chicago based law firm starting May 4th. Thankful to everyone who helped me get there & all of you here who offered advice. I've waited a long time for this! 😊
President Uhuru Kenyatta’s message to SGR detractors
"Mimi nimesema, wakusema ambao hawajui Kenya inaenda wapi waendele. Wakufanya, tufanye. Hatuezi kushindwa na wale wa mdomo."

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ.N) is exploring a plan to offload liabilities from widespread Baby Powder litigation into a newly created business that would then seek bankruptcy protection, according to seven people familiar with the matter.
My sister and her fam were at the Naro Moru River Lodge over the weekend and apparently they were the only guests staying there. 💔. The effects of Covid restrictions on tourism? Hope these places survive it.
@DrNadiaChaudhri
You have the most amazing spirit! 😂. Can’t believe you’re finding the humor in things and still pushing yourself to be productive with the fundraising etc. I feel so blessed for having bumped into your Twitter handle. You’re beyond inspiring. God bless you & your family so much.
@KarenAttiah
He’s such an amazing guy. The BBC profiled him some time back. He does free surgeries (cleft lips, etc) for kids in Africa who couldn’t afford it otherwise. I’ve respected him since reading that article.
Small tees are especially fulfilling coz my Ex hated me wearing them so much. 😂. Men have issues. Mwili ni wangu, shida iko? Anyhu, I don't look all that bad for 38 I think.
This guy thinks he's a president coz we need speeches. Bure kabisa. Brookside has wrecked the lives of dairy farmers. Some of the hardest working Kenyans. So he really ought to look in the mirror. He's everything that's wrong with the country. Best gift he can give is resign.
We cannot be a country anymore where those who work hard are robbed of their profit by those who are too lazy to work hard and produce. - President Uhuru Kenyatta

I should write a book on the dysfunction that's dating. Aaaaaaargh. I just want an ambitous tall, dark bloke who respects his mother, doesn't iron his jeans or live in a man cave. Is that too much to ask?!
Turning 40 tomorrow and feeling about a century old, 😭🤣. Anyhu, spent some time on
@SistahHair
’s chair after months of neglecting my hair so we chopped off a good chunk of it. But that’s how it goes with hair that tangles a lot like mine, 😊. Thanks Terez!
This guy is still trying to pretend he's innocent?! 😂. We were there and we read the extensive press coverage. We also had family and colleagues who worked at KEMRI and have direct accounts of those days from them too. You're in good company though, Waiguru is now a governor.
My sis sent me some pics from Nyeri, they'd gone to see my uncle who's recovering from a diabetes & asthma related hospitalization. Glad he's doing much better. Glad that they had insurance that paid most of the bill. & thrilled to see the streams & forest cover I grew up around
Wait, pastors are paid to officiate weddings? SMH. I hate what the church has become. Everything's about money. Do they charge for burial ceremonies too?
My Cucu is doing great. So happy my mum sent me this pic, though I scolded her for not social distancing, 🙆🏿. She'd gone to deliver a small care package from me. My mum is telling me Cucu's bragging that she's gotten money from her granddaughter in America, 😁.
This was my last day as a PhD student, 😊. All that ends with bubbly ends well, 😂. I don't miss academia. But I miss my PI for sure. He's the one smiling in the back. He's an 11 out of 10.
Haha. When a 24 year old hits on you then it's time to delete dating apps. 😲😲😲😲. Told him he's too young. He says I'm missing out. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Then adds I look gorgeous, "for your age." Geez! He might as well have said, you look cute, grandma. 😂

Uhuru's interests have never stretched beyond his family and maybe a few close friends. So anything he tries to do is never about the betterment of the country. I despise him so much.
We’re surprising my Mum with her first ✈️ tickets. It’s just for a domestic trip, still, pretty excited for her coz she’s been wanting this for a while.
You know how structural engineers have to make room for expansions and contractions on bridges, etc? 😁😁😁. That's how I'm approaching my clothing choices these days, 🤦🏿😁.
I'm so proud for doing so much in 2 weeks. Got job offer, gave 2 weeks notice, cataloged my zillions of samples in the liquid nitrogen tank & other lab stuff all while house hunting. Did a ton of virtual house tours & viewed a few apartments in person. Signed lease & moved in.
Today is the 19th meaning it’s my last month in my 30s. Heeeeeeelp, 🤣. I hate aging. I wonder if I would feel differently about it if I were rich though, 🤣. I don’t think it’s the aging I have issues with, I just feel under accomplished for my age, 😭😭😭😭😭.
At the lab clearing up. My last week as a post-doc yay! Still, it's so haaaard and so much to do. My colleagues are saying I look like a handy man with the hammer and all.

Prolly underlying conditions compounded by long-term health disparities and maybe overcrowding. But also, they make up the biggest % of "essential workers," who are at highest risk of exposure. Postal workers, delivery guys, hospital cleaners, grocery workers etc
Moving into an apartment with zero furniture is wild. Plus I didn't have a ton of cash either, 🙆🏿. It's been rough but glad it's starting to come together now.

@emgbar
Reminds me of a girl in my PhD class who would never let us forget that she’d been accepted to 3 other schools, 🙄🙄🙄. Us: But you’re still here with us. 😂
@blacksciblog
When using precast gels for Westerns, load samples and start the run only nothing's happening. You realise you didn't remove the seal at the bottom 😞 so you have to get the gel out, remove seal and trying not to mess the samples.
Wait, God put $600,000 behind their toilet and they’re still asking for donations for the plumbing? 🤣😂🤣😂. Do these people smoke burnt tires or something?!
My sister just delivered a beautiful, healthy baby boy. So grateful to God. This is why I was so worried about all of them having Covid. But thankfully they all recovered fairly fast. It’s an amazing day.
😂. When I was 24 there was a 44 year old Igbo professor hitting on me. But. As you all know, I'm really poor at reading such cues. So I was getting more & more frustrated. Then one day I just blurted out; you're in the afternoon of your life! 😂. Back then, 40 seemed so ancient.
My work Visa was approved today. So grateful to God. Also can’t believe I have no wine in this house for a toast! 😂. Oh and I learnt that immigration lawyers are an interesting bunch, 😊. Glad I found a good one who wasn’t out to bankrupt me 😂.
This has been my professional home since 1st Jan 2014. On my last day,
@NorthwesternU
, just wanted express my gratitude for my time here. Didn't expect to feel nostalgic, but I am 🙈 so I took a few pictures for the grandkids 🤣. 😊. Continue being great

I did food science as my 1st degree. My final project involved wine making, 😍. Some male students I asked to help with the sensory evaluation told me it tasted really good and there was a lot of money to be made. I rented a room near campus and went commercial, 😂.
Wow. People are so different. I'd starve or wear tatters first before I saw my mother suffer. I don't support my family coz they supported me, it just comes naturally to me out of love. I don't even think about it or tally how much I've given.
