I Need A New Name
desperately
Heyooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m backkk, you’re backkk, we’re backkk. I apologise for all the repeated letters, I’m having an adrenaline kick.
Soooooooouuu, missed me? If you didn’t, you're like the girls who have rejected me (that’s code for: YOU HAVE HORRIBLE TASTE). Anywayyyyyysssss (ok I’ll stop with the repeated letters now), I’m done with my exams and on holidays so we’ll return to our bi-weekly posts hopefully. Until then, this post is just to address some stuff.
NEW COLOURS
So, first and foremost, if you’re reading directly from site and not e-mail or through an app, do you like the new colours?
NEW NAME
I know a lot of people are excited that I’ve finally decided to change the name of the newsletter because they don’t like it. Apparently, I suck at naming stuff and “Diaries Of A Wimpy Toni” is a suckish name. Just typed it and realised it’s actually an horrible name, damnnittt! Anyways, this is what we’re going to do: You head over to the comment section, suggest a name, I’d pick the ones I like and we’d vote on it in the next post. Either that or I just pick another horrible name.
NEW ORDER OF THINGS
Oh dear reader, weep, wail, and mourn. Rend your hearts and tear your garments for it is with a heavy heart that I hereby announce that Randoms With Toni has come to an unexpected end. From the next post, I’ll be sharing a Spotify playlist and referring a new book with every post (with a download link, if possible). The Spotify playlist is of great importance to me because one of the convictions I had a long time ago was to introduce young people like myself to more edifying music with 'catchy' sounds so they can be free from the illusion that they have to listen to nonsense because the beat is nice. To those without Spotify, I’ll work on maybe Boomplay, Apple Music or other alternatives someday but for now it’ll be just Spotify.
WHERE WE ARE
I started doing this with a lot of support from the amazing people I’ve been opportuned to meet in my rather short life but I definitely do not have 200 friends. I do have 200 subscribers though (gaspssssssss). Just want to appreciate every single human being and bot who is subscribed to this publication. To those who have being instrumental in growing this audience, I say thank you. People that have been sharing it on their platforms, y’all are amazing. People who have been sharing it specifically to groups, friends, you guys are the best! Thanks to everyone really, if you’re reading this and you aren’t subscribed though…
WHERE WE ARE GOING
So I’ve decided to be more intentional about the growth of our subscribers and I have placed a goal for at least 300 by the end of the year which we should be able to reach if we can gather as little as 10 new subscribers per month. Easy peasy. So beautiful, lovely, amazing, wonderful, fantastic, stupendous reader, SHARE SHARE SHARE and SHARE.
There would be a referral leaderboard that you should be able to access somewhere, I don’t know where but somewhere. So make sure you are first on the board.
If you have a sibling and they aren’t subscribed on here, you aren’t doing well. If you have roommates or friends who aren’t subscribed, you’re making me very sad! GET ME AT LEAST ONE NEW SUBSCRIBER TODAY (blows powder).
WHAT WE’VE DONE
As at the time of writing, I have just seven other major posts. If you haven’t read any, you should. Also, everyone should do me a favour and share your favorite one/ones to someone/ones today. Comment your favourites too, put mine here:
WHAT WE’LL BE DOING
The last school year started in October 2022. It has probably being the best year of my life because of how much I’ve changed or at least I feel have changed. On that note, my next posts would be on the school year, what I’ve learnt, interesting stories and God because he is the spine of it all. I felt I would share my plan for the next few posts so I can hold myself up to it.
Life In A School Year 1 - Taylor Swift is the problem
Life In A School Year 2 - “It’s not you, it’s me”
Life In A School Year 3 - Support Systems
Life In A School Year 4 - Structured Living
Butterflies - A tale of unwanted wants and confused clarity
In other words, we’re going hard!!!!! (if laziness doesn’t whoop my ass of course).
WHAT YOU GET NOW
So to celebrate hitting 200 subscribers. I thought “What shall I leave you people with?” and I was thinking of telling you people to drop your account numbers and I’ll pick 5 lucky winners and give something small but then a wise voice said “Why not leave them with something better? MEMES!!!!!!!!!” so yes I’m leaving you with memes.
Guyssss, let get to 300 subscribersssss.
Tell your friend friend to tell his friend friend cause we must get to 300 !!!!
Oh and my favorite was do I need to show her off
