2022 is here and you know what that means. New year, new us. Here’s a list of new year resolutions you, as a bad bitch should adopt this year. 

1. Remain wicked 

This should be the number one rule. Don’t let anybody take you for an idiot. When they say gbas, you say gbos. 

2. Small girl, big money 

Favour over labour. Go where the money is and own it. Ignore all the side talks and focus on the cash. 

3. No more eggs in one basket 

Talk to all the people trying to talk to you that you like. If it is your desire then this is the year you will post matching pyjamas pictures on the timeline. 

10 Reasons You Need to Give Yourself More Credit this Year

4. Keep being the bad girl you are

I don’t need to tell you that the sun rises and set at your feet. This year I need you to behave like it. 

5. Don’t let anybody tell you what to do 

If you want to wear ashawo dress, then good for you. If it’s rich auntie vibes that’s your thing, please dear, feel free to express yourself. Don’t let anybody tell you what to do. 

6. No splitting bills with men 

Whether they like it or not, they still have higher earning power. If they want to do things like splitting the bill, they should join the rest of us to fight the patriarchy. 

7. Anything wey go sup go sup

No more being afraid of what’s going to happen next. You are a bad bitch who is capable of handling everything that comes your way with a little crying along the way but capable nonetheless.
