A B O U T M E
My name is Jeremiah Adebiyi but Jerry is fine, i'm an IT student by choice and i love my life(lol).
I play football, i love inspirational activities(i.e inspirational movies, blogs) and i study. I must confess, life is not really easy when you are an IT student, how do i know this?, from experience people. I mean, first year was cool and all but as you begin to code and go deeper, it's just consumes all your time. I'm not the planning type but blogging as thought me that you actually do need a plan. People say things becomes easier if you have a plan but what do i know, i only just learnt how to ride a bicycle last week(lol).
I was once a medical student, that phase of life made me realize that, what is not meant to be can't be. I find peace in taking pictures with my camera, listening to music, playing football or reading/watching anything inspirational. Talking about football, i believe everyone has a given talent, well, football is mine. Can't nothing stop me when am on the pitch, i think of nothing other than the ball in my legs. In that same moment, it feels like i'm on another planet, where nobody judges you, where your only task is trying to win. I take pride in doing what i'm capable of doing and i take no pleasure in looking down on others because we all have our own problems. I won't say i'm humble but i'd rather say i give respect to whom respect is ought to be given to. Moving on, i'd like discuss things that inspired my blogging.
WHAT INSPIRED MY BLOGGING?
Apart from football, i always wondered what i was really good at. I started noticing people around me, dressing the same way i dress, asking me details on where i got my shoe or my jeans. I'm just a normal regular guy but i feel good when i'm answering questions about my outfit. I found my inspiration from Friends, Tumblr, Instagram, Photography, music and Bloggers.
Tumblr:
Firstly, without the Internet, none of this things would make any sense, but tumblr really inspired me. I remember my first phone came with a tumblr app. At first, i never really knew what it was for until i signed up and i saw different users with different content and then i gradually understood it. Seeing peoples content on Tumblr, made me fall in love with photography. Seeing some images gave me a feeling of what could be. I actually connected with a few users on there. Some of them users turned out to be bloggers and some where just looking for a place to showcase their works.
Photography:
Photography is just one thing. For me, it's like capturing that moment that you want to relive. Have you ever snapped a shot of a friend, and it was so lovely that he tried recreating that moment but it was difficult(I've been there too). I take shots of me because am a fashion guy, but when i feel happy or just in the mood, i pick up my camera or my phone and take random pictures of anything. I got inspiration from seeing other peoples images and i try to do better.
Instagram:
Instagram is really the major app for sharing image posts these days. Instagram came and changed the whole social game. It was like the big bang theory in the social world. I had an account where i post lots of stuffs few years back but it was hacked and the best idea was to open another account. Instagram is my favorite app. Waking up in the morning, seeing the post of people i follow just gives me an idea of my outfit. It gets tricky sometimes because you see different dope outfits that gets you confused. This gave me inspiration and also gave me a perspective on what i really liked and don't like.
Music:
Music is same for all people. I can judge you by listening to your playlist. It makes you feel alive and it can also give you answers to different questions.(does that make sense?) Listening to lyrics of an artist is like listening to poetry, he is trying to talk about his life or he is trying to create a scenario. For me, i listened to alot of Eminem, kanye and Chris Brown.
One thing about the music you like is that you always like the artist. I like this bunch, they all have their fashion style(dope in their way). Don't let me even get started on Kanye and Breezy. Music just gave me sense towards life.
Bloggers:
There are few bloggers i follow. These people taught me how to pose, how to style an outfit in different ways. To mention a few;
Gallucks (here)
Mikko Puttonen (here)
Olivia Emily (here)
Ali Gordon (here)
Jordan Bunker (here)
Blvckmvnivc (here)
James Marriott (here)
These bloggers always come out with different post that inspires me to be better. Gallucks have this amazing way of reaching out to you and also responding to your message. He thought me different things including having a plan, which is very important if you want to succeed in blogging. I can also say the same thing for the rest.
Friends:
My friends inspired me in opening a blog. My blog is a year old and the reason i created the blog is a way to share my lifestyle with my outfits. People close to me can benefit including people that aren't.
I remember the first post i made, i really got lots of attention then as a starter, then gradually i started developing new ideas on how to go further with the blog.
F U T U R E >>> P L A N S
After changing the domain name of the blog, i plan on posting dope contents on the blog. The quality of your blog determines you sponsorship quality. I already have a plan and yh, i just can't wait to unveil these plans. Just stick along with me and it can only get better. It's not going to be easy, trying to put me out there with my pictures results in hate and negativity and as i have recently just learnt, "block and delete" or Ignoring the negativity is the way to move on. Trust me it's gonna be a fun journey. Feel free to message me or drop a comment. I'd be really happy to answer any questions.
