Coming Sooon,.. to This Blog
9:07 AM |

Krox's world |
I am Working on a Design blog. This Should run along side this random Diary of mine. My design blog is going to be like my online playground. Where I experiment and also hook up with other designers and Photographers, and design and photography enthusiasts.
The decision to have another blog running vis-Ã -vis this one has been caused by many factors. One actually is the flexibility of blogger – aka, blogspot.com. Blogger is not as flexible. It limits you on the type of ways you can improve your site. You may add a long and crazy html code to your blog to achieve what you want. Which I don’t really find cool.Wordpress on the other hand aka, wordpress.com is very easy to tweak with the hundreds of plug ins available online, unlike blogger. So I haven’t been posting anything for a while now, because I wanted to switch to word press. But I found it particularly hard. In fact, I have been battling with that for a long time this year. I find wordpress easy to use, but I have sort of gotten attached to this blog. It was my first when I dived into the world of blogging two years ago.(Especially after I customized it to my own liking…) As a reader and also as a contributor. But mostly as a reader.
And so, after careful consideration, ( well, not really, I only used ‘careful consideration’ because it is a good cliche`) I decided that I should get another blog purposefully for Photography Design and any other design related stuff. I made this decision hastily really. But I will keep my first blog. I will then keep it as the random diary it has been. Where I will post anything that comes to me, or my daily, weekly or monthly endevours.
I am also adding content to this blog. It should be really nice. And an awesome read,. always
The blog is almost out. As a matter of fact, its rolling out soonest. I will brief you about it. But you best be anticipating for it as I am anticipating for it . It will be run and managed by me Yours Truly. Later then.
p.s I still love blogger. Rock on!!

Bungoma Bible School
I promised to blog about my current school. I will try my best to be specific with the details and stuff.
The institution was established in the late 1980’s by a missionary called Doris Stortlar who is nowadays commonly referred to as Mama Doris. She then partnered with Justus Ochuro (whom I add up as the son) to run the school. Him as the director of the institution.
So far the school has had over a thousand graduates in the certificate course, which takes a year to complete. It boasts of students from all over East Africa, From Rwanda Burundi Tanzania Sudan and more so Kenya Kenya also come from diverse places in the country, from Eastern Coast
The institution is also has a church in Bungoma town. The church is called Word of Life Christian Fellowship. I go to that church.
Well my school is really cool come to think of it. It has classes for only half a day. From 9 to 12.30 in the afternoon. You may be wondering what they teach. Well, wonder no more, because that is what I plan to tell you exactly.
As a theology institution it is based on mainly equipping Christians. For the work of the saints and the edification of the body of Christ.
The school offers Certificate course, which only takes a year to complete, A diploma certificate which requires 4 more semesters a after the certificate course. (Note that a semester takes three months to go through) . A degree course is also offered in the institution.
I am almost done with the Certificate course. As a matter of fact, I’ll be done in November. There many things in form of Advantages I can tell you about the Bible School
In the Bible School
Another advantage is that I have learnt so so many stuff about Christianity in general. I have learnt to pray. Not so long ago were the days I used to go to pray, and I would be like,..
“ God bless me. In Jesus name, Amen”
And that was it. Nothing more to add him. Now I know the value of Supplication Thanks Giving and even Intersession among others. I know how to pray. I know what God wants in a prayer so that it should be answered. ( and just incase you are wondering what that is, the answer is faith. God understands the Language of Faith)
I have learnt to praise and to Worship.
I have gained knowledge of the Bible. I know what God says bout my life, socially, Spiritually, Financially, and all other ways. I think this is the most important and effective part in my life personally. It is such a joy and a blessing to just know what God thinks of you.
I have also gained commitment to the call. I’m not saying that I’m cut out to be a pastor, or an evangelist or some minister in the church. But I believe that it is the duty of each and every Christian to lead lost to Christ. As he left us with that duty. It is the responsibility of each and every christen to come against all the plans of the devil through sickness diseases, plagues, accidents and all form of negative incidents.
I have also gotten my priorities set straight. I know that form here I go to the university. That will be a good thing. Because I know that there is purpose set for me in my llife. I will live to achieve that great purpose.
Did I mention I also caught a fire?? Yeupp, I caught a fire for God ( which is like also wayyy,soo tawtally amazing) and I have to warn you, I’m contagious. I love God and will tell of him who gave his life for me.
I should also add that one more advantage is that the school is the cheapest in all Kenya
So as you can see, there is really nothing to lose. As a matter of fact there are only advantages to this Bungoma Bible School
I could go on and on and on and on about it butttt, I chose not to, in any way, I will be blogging about it regularly before and even after I graduate. So you may get to know a lot about it through that way too.
Its SEPTEMBER!!!!!
Its September already!!
Jeez!! Man!! I could swear ( that is if I swore ) that this year has gone pretty fast. I never really saw this year as this point in time so far. And to be completely honest, for me to reach this far, it is truly God. So just a recap of what happened in my life this year so far. Well,.. Those who don’t know me and don’t bother to ( I will tell you any way- this is MY blog, remember?) may not know that I came from High school recently. In a country called Kenya
Its been a crazy year. I have done quite a lot with my life so far. In January I joined a theology institution in Bungoma Kenya
The most important part is that I met God somewhere down the line. I have been a
Christian all my life. But that is just a name,. Christian. I was one because I had not really made my priorities straight and I had not really decided that that was what I wanted. So I joinedBungoma Bible School Kenya
Christian all my life. But that is just a name,. Christian. I was one because I had not really made my priorities straight and I had not really decided that that was what I wanted. So I joined
So to now add, as I said,. I’m Kenyan African, Human, but most of all, I’m Christian. A lover of God , A believer of Jesus Christ who is the son of God, who came to earth in Human form to die for My sins, and your sins.
There I said it!!!
By the way. It feels so good. It feels so good to have something to live for. Paul says that for Him to live is Christ. Any way… I got involved with the Youth at our Church In Bungoma. I was never that involved with anything. Even back when I was still in school. I was kinda a person who just chilled out in the background. I got involved in the dance group, not that I’m the best dancer or what not, but that I could positively use the energy that I had. I also joined the Youth Choir. ( I also discovered I could sing) It has really been amazing man!!
So in August we had this Youth Camp in Church. I tried to blog about it too. But managed only 2 posts. Not that I got tired or anything, but because I never really got time to squeeze in between there. But it was amazing. We had these powerful teachings about vision and purpose. I think this is where the Year got more interesting for me. I have been having a grand time since then.I dunno If you’ve ever been in a situation when your life is just amazing. You have so much peace. You don’t have any worries and not so so much to do, but then again,.. you got so much to look forward to.
This my involvement in the Youth group has shaped me in many ways. I have confidence before people. I can talk and challenge people in to my faith, I have learnt a lot about Leadership. I also believe that I am cut out for leadership. I also got to do major stuff in Church like organize and even MC concerts.
We had this concert on church just before guys went back to school, and guess what, I was the MC. Pretty cool huh??
Aaaaaany ways We reopened Bible School
Now that’s a good thing. Don’t you think??

The RedCall??? I Scream Conspiracy
I know its quite some time know after the red call hoax. But I could have as well kept quiet about it. What hurts me so much is that, days after the "hoax" people are still talking about it. But I'm going to prove why it's a personally presumed conspiracy.
But first, so that you do not feel so bad, and timed out, here is something I know you will love.
HOW TO TALK AT 2/- USING YOUR SAFARICOM LINE
When Zain Kenya
So they finally came up with a plan. Obviously with strings attached. As they call it themselves, Terms and Conditions apply.
So this is the oh so amazing plan that they came up with.
You load Airtime worth 100 through 1000 and call 2/- on net and 3/- off net
Airtime worth 50/- and you call 3/- offnet and on net.
yada yada yada. ( the rest is really not fulfilling!)
So this is how you talk at only 2/-
First you have to buy airtime worth 100/-
(yeah I know, but that is the catch, its still cheaper than 250/-)
After that, your sim will automatically switch to 2/- on net and 3/- off net
So, for you to keep talking at only that amount regardless whether you buy a 5/- card worth of airtime or 20/-. You have to get another phone and load in the amount then sambaza yourself.
There,.. you can buy a 5/- shilling credit card and still talk for their offer price of 2/- on net and 3/- off net. That is what I have been doing.
See,.. I told you that you’ll love it.
Now to the CONSPIRACY
CONSPIRACY
I’ll be brief, and leave all the thinking to you. But allow me to introduce to you the thought.
Now if you are Palestinian, Nigerian, Ghanaian or Kenyan you probably know about the red call Hoax.
Its exactly a week later after it hit Kenya
Well, all the Kenyan telecommunication companies denied all allegations conserning the red call hoax. But come to think of it, I have reason to believe that they were involved.
Well, they are smart. Viral marketing technique was used here. From social media sites such as twitter to facebook. But this way they would never even be involved right?? C’mon,..
The text rates went from as high as 5/- per text to 1/- per text. That is a crazy drop in price. They knew that this would be the right time to take viral marketing from social media, translate it into texts then distribute it around the country. How, through the ever paranoid and surprisingly ignorant population.
Here’s the business sense. If one text is one shilling, the general public would not really mind sending more than one text. Infact psychologically speaking, I would be even willing to send more texts.
So what happens if as a company we get a million texts, that means that is a a million shillings without any struggle. And what if our texts as a company go for 3.50/- and 5/- and we manage to get just 100 000 texts sent,. Then that is 350 000 and 500 000 shillings made in twenty four hours. And we close the business and keep quiet about it.
It does make sense….. think about it…

Youth Camp #2
Wassup Diary??!! ( Good thing you are not my High school principle, You wuold have given me that>> "are you crazy look"!!
Oh i almost forgot,
DAY 2
Today was such a great day. In many ways so. I joined my friend to celebrate the biggest thing in her life Yet. and that was good. Another reason why it was such a great day is that today I actually got to attend the services at the camp. What's even greater, I got to minister in the Youth worship team. I say that is great because I get so much joy from getting the opportunity to serve. Not that. Being a Youth meeting, I got really challenged and inspired since we had the speakers sharing a lot about DESTINY PURPOSE DREAMS AND VISIONS. I can tell you one thing I have really been inspired and moved so far. There is only so much God says about Our dreams and the purpose that he has for our lives. Actually come to think of it, everyone's' life is actually already mapped out through God's divine power. It is for us to tap in a and to live to our fullest potential.
You know what is so great about a young persons life is that you can be anything you want to be, in whatever way you want it to be. I know that I will be good and turn out great. I got my notes, One day I will blog about what I have learned and where I see God taking Me.
Okay, so that was the preaching part. But man the singing and dancing was so vibrant. There is actually a group of guys who really danced until I almost burst out laughing from stage. Those Guys were Hilarious.
Apart from that, the worship was great. I could feel the presence. And the food was great too. I gotta congratulate those peeps that were in the Kitchen today. Okay so today I was not really worked up like yesterday so I feel okay..
There's a lot that I can share from today. But those were the main highlight of the event
Here are the just but some of the stuff that happened today
Oh and By the way, there should be a photo of my friend's cake somewhere..... what a day!

| As you can see, a lot is going on here. There are young people who are sold out for God, worshipping, singing and dancing. It is really cool to know that very young people. 13s to 20something year olds take the Gospel really seriously. One more thing I did not mention, the Sunday school children sang really beautifully.. I think there is a photo up there somewhere. Oh,.. yeah, and I appear somewhere in the big middle photo,.. looking oh so amazing for Jesus. |

Youth Camp #1
Day 1.
Today is the day I was supposed to be in the Kitchen. Well, No service for me, at least until evening for the revivals.
UMMMMMMM.....
[ I have been so psyched up for this Youth camp. I have been talking about it from way back, so I pray that it will be a great success. Yesterday church was really amazing. We danced so vigorously (obviously not to the liking of the Older generation- But our Love is Loud, we Just can't help it) We also led the praise and worship. Can You imagine? the Youth group of around ten people standing in front of about 500-700 people in the church??? It was a first, though I totally Liked the experience.. Any way, I promised to blog about the Youth camp.]
HUHHHH...[LONG SIGH]
(And now back to where I was)
I knew it was going to be a hard task, I was almost alone, the rest of the guys had other stuff to tale care of. My sister, whom I was to be with in the Kitchen had to report to Moi University that day. A lot of inconveniences came at first. We had agreed to meet at 8.30ish, but no one was there at 9.30, I think I only saw one person, But then again, We had to do our thing. The church was opened and we started praying until people finally started coming in. ( Remember I was still supposed to cook) Why lie, though, the day started at a verrrrrrrrrry slow rate. People finally started showing up at around 12. Lucky me there were not so many people to feed. Rice with Beans, and that was done!
Immediately after we started cutting the sukuma wiki (kales) what!! that was the most hectic thing I did. No , wait, I forgot the cooking Ugali part. You can imagine, preparing Ugali for a 50 people serving can be hectic. But I made it! whooooo!! -i wont disclose who cooked the Ugali. for the mean time just keep thinking its me.-
And so evening came and I had not really recorded any service atandences. But This will be a great Youth convention. We already have so many borders. This is good.
And of course I leave you with a few photos from the super amazing day.You know I would still say that!!...
Good night dairy!
