Here we are, about 2 years later with the same problem.
I was hyped and listening to Beyonce typing out my blog post. I was enjoying myself and I decided to open with "sat here noding to yonce as I type this blog post. I should start every blog post with Beyonce in the background".
2 days later and I'm sat here not listening to Beyonce because my laptop doesn't let me enjoy myself. If I had a choice I'd throw it across the room and watch it shatter. FYI it froze about 10 times while I typed this very short paragraph. But like my dad would say "Allah ya so ba ke kike freezing ba" (translation, Thank God you are not the one freezing).
It's so bad that I try as much as possible to avoid using lightroom. All the patience and tolerance I learnt during NYSC has gone down the drain and therefore I rely on my phone, the only device that matters.
Let me add that apple has concluded that the only way they can help me is if I purchase one of their many expensive newer laptops. Yeah... of course, why oh why didn't I even think of that solution?
Anyway enough of my angry rant lol.

Happy New Year! Safe to say the first 2 months were somewhat of a blur. Happy to be back! I've basically been living my best life, Alhamdulillah. Started the year surrounded by family which of course was amazing.
I was at an island off the coast of Abu Dhabi a few weeks ago and if we are being honest, I was kinda hoping the boat would leave me behind.

I've resorted back to my old ways of procrastinating and I've been putting off making a post or even thinking of what next to capture and share. I mean my slow laptop contributed to my hiatus but that's just me making excuses. If anyone has a way out for me, I'll appreciate the help (only if you've tried it and it worked).
This post basically highlights what I've been capturing since the year started. Some are already on my Instagram page. Follow me if you don't already arclicks_. I have been working with my fujifilm xt20 this year and I'm liking it so far. I’m still trying to get the hang of it but the truth is I may need another intensive course on photography. Truth is, you never actually stop learning.
I attended index and sikka art fair the other day. Even though index was fun, I unfortunately couldn’t make it to sikka before sunset. Now sure I got to experience sikka but I have a fear of shooting at night. I tend to panic when I can't find natural light but I managed to make it work for some pictures.
Anyway enjoy the pictures. I wasn't joking about the suggestions to overcome procrastination. Leave your suggestions in the comment section below.
APPRECIATE IT!
P.S If you live in the UAE and you've read all the way to this part, please hit me up. I'm down for shoots and collaborations.
Thank youuuuu!
