Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • Missed me?

    There’s been a lot in the past months. Personally. Academically. Spiritually. Emotionally. Financially. You know… All the “lly” s. I have been posting most of my articles on LinkedIn and Facebook. I remember I have a blog on most days and people loyal to the blog and I feel remorse for my absenteeism here. School…

  • Social Aspects of Acculturation in These United States: COVID-19 Episode.

    Social Aspects of Acculturation in These United States: COVID-19 Episode.

    My routine back in Abeokuta was simple and rarely divergent. During week days, I focused on going to work during my shifts, recovering from the shifts, preparing for the next shifts and ensuring I eat. My active weekday social life was mostly zero. The most of my social life was lived through social media and…

  • 3 Moons & a Thousand Nostalgias: EuKnighTed.

    3 Moons & a Thousand Nostalgias: EuKnighTed.

    Until She suggested that we both write, from our different angles, how we’ve survived these past months of, er, intercontinental dating, I probably hadn’t taken time to view the subject in such a  summary sense. I nodded outside and sighed within. I scanned the varied experiences of the past 12 weeks plus, plus the adjustments…

    Love, LDR and Love Languages: EuKnighTed.

    This is the first part of a discussion on the alterations that come into love expressions in relationships on account of distance.

  • Springing out of Spring: One Semester Already?

    Spring… It has been a wonderful first semester at the University of Southern Mississippi. Almost unbelievable that I survived these past months without any major breakdown. Miracles do happen. There are many papers attesting to the mental adjustment many international students have to make when they leave their home countries and they contain no lies.…

  • African-Caribbeans Arise!: We Complete Home for One Another.

    African-Caribbeans Arise!: We Complete Home for One Another.

    You step into a room and you feel this realization that you are not home, but you’re in the one place that can remind you of it. This was the atmosphere at the University of Southern Mississippi, African-Caribbean Society Night. Diversity in the diaspora. Traditional attires, natural hairstyles, dark and darker skin tones, African flags,…

  • Update in Due Time: About that Masters in Public Health.

    Update in Due Time: About that Masters in Public Health.

    Knowing why that guy in the wheelchair in Sex Education needs to be blown up in the first scene of season 3 (whenever it films) is probably not the best preamble to this post. But, it is my blog and SEO stuff can like to hug a Nigerian electric pole while it rains. Yeah, nothing…

  • One Confirmed Hit Covid-19 Had on Me.

    One Confirmed Hit Covid-19 Had on Me.

    Know Your Body. I woke up… or more accurately, it woke me up; The Covid Fever. Six days earlier, it had been giving hints but coinciding with my period, I did not think much of it. In fact, for me, it was not uncommon to have some malaise and discomfort around this time. But, this…
