Life is amazingly short. Look for and do what makes you happy. Shoot that shot on relationships, jobs, business. Make that trip. Make new friends. Try out that new skill. Treat yourself to good drinks, food, clothes etc. Life has no rehearsal. It either happens or not.

UDA has employed a consistent method in Msambweni, Juja and Kiambaa. Have agents at most, if not all, polling stations to pick the forms & send to the 'command centre'. They do their own tally publicly and then wait for the official IEBC result. This could help future elections.
