         On  the 17th of december2017 my blog was two years, I celebrated my blog's one year anniversary by giving out call credits to my subscribers on my face book page Nemyinspired.  If you haven’t like my face book page you can do so now! You never can tell what’s in store there for you! However,  I wasn't able to celebrate the second anniversary  but I promise that the third anniversary would be celebrated in a big way.          When I started blogging in 2015 I was filled with apprehension, I never knew I would last for a month however as time went by, I got more focused, encouraged, determined to continue blogging. I recently shared my reasons for starting a blog in this post . In all sincerity, there were times I felt that blogging took so much from me and I felt like deleting the blog and in fact forget about the whole thing but the encouragement I got from family, friends and random people kept me going. It ...

The issue of studying abroad has been one that has intrigued me and so many Nigerians. There is this trend for elites and ambitious Nigerians to study for their post graduate degree outside the country. I interviewed Chioma Ezeh who is a graduate of English Education from University of Nigeria, Nsukka. She left for the USA where she studied for her masters, got married and is now researching for her PhD all in that order! Let's see what she has to say....     Let’s meet you  I am Chioma Ezeh. I am from Anambra state, Nigeria. I am a student at Washington State University where I am currently studying English Language and Technology.   2. What influenced your decision to study abroad? I love scholarship and have always known deep within me that pursuing a career outside the academia is not where I see myself. I had the hunger to go beyond bachelors and dreams of being at the top in my field. I desired to have better and relevant education. As fate had it, an uncle o...

 Often times, students are discouraged from engaging in any side business because of the possibility of such a business venture distracting them and disrupting their studies negatively. In a country like Nigeria for instance, where the educational system is chaotic, time for lectures are sometimes decided by lecturers and thus susceptible to changes at any point depending on the lecturer’s schedule. I remember sometimes having 7am lectures three times a week when I was in school, other times, I had lectures from 7am to 6pm and some other days I had very few lectures or even lecture free days. With this type of schedule, it is difficult to concentrate on certain businesses, hence one requires businesses that will be flexible enough to fit one’s erratic schedule! I have compiled a list of 12 businesses specially selected to fit your schedule as a student! 1. Freelance writing: the first time I heard about freelance writing was when I was in university and one of our lecturers   ...

It is a natural drink popular in northern Nigeria and it’s gradually getting popular all over the country. The original kunu which is a popular drink is called kunu dawa (made from millet and some other ingredients). However, despite how nice that drink is, it is heavy and causes one to sleep unlike this kunu aya which is light and easy to digest.  The first time I drank kunu was when  I attended a meeting and this natural, 100 percent African drink was served, I tasted this drink and it entered my head grimmmm…. Straight to my brain and I was like, what is this?  It tasted like a combination of soy milk, mixed with something that I couldn’t explain. It was so tasty. However, I could hardly believe it when I was told by my host that it contained zero percent sugar and I was really amazed.  After asking around, I was taught how to make this tasty, sugar free, natural drink and guess what?  It is easier than you ever imagined!      These are the maj...

The classic man as he is popularly called has arrived Nigeria to promote his new album 'Chief don't run'. There has been lots of Buzz about his coming coupled with the fact that the founder of Facebook Mark Zukerberg is in Lagos Nigeria for the first time. NemyStyle gives you a sneek peak to his unique western african style which he describes as heavily inspired by the Harlem Renaissance with hints of of traditional west African design and a marriage of European and African aesthetics.  Follow the pictures and see how the theory comes to play: 1.  He really plays with the fusion of traditional, western and sporty outlook all in one outfit. The shirt is a blend of ankara and white material, the waist coat and trousers are blue and let's not forget the georgous pair of sneakers. The combination of all his items of clothing seem so wrong but miraculously he pulls it off well!  2 .   2. This Ankara knee length shirt and a pair of simple black trousers and shoes is simple...
