Out Alone!

There’s a comedy night coming up tomorrow and I intend to attend with or without my friends…well here is the deal…my friends often mess up! As in majorly mess up my plans, we all planned to go for Asa concert the last time she was in London and everybody was excited about it… Now fast-forward to the big day and I call them up to know where to meet up and the story changed… “awww sowwweee I forgot” said one of them, another one was like “ it is weekday,bla bla bla”…one told me she was leaving the office pretty late…I called her till the concert started and at a point, she did not pick up my calls again…I mean WTF!!! The worst part of it all is that I bought the tickets ages ago, five freaking Asa tickets…I had to sell them off at the venue thanks to a cool pal of mine. So I’ve been bitten once therefore I need to be shy twice. Well when I found out about the comedy thingy, I asked if they were attending and it was the same yes yes yes…lol…oh well this time around y’all getting your tick

Wife battery

Was going through a blog that reminded me of a true life story I heard a while back... Now this was before J-Lo film 'cos I was telling someone and she was like ooo that was a movie...so now before I start the story...I am specifically saying "this is real life" okay... Story goes thus... Dee(assumed name for the lady) is a beautiful mixed race lady.Her British mother left her in Nigeria and moved back to UK. She grew up with her Dad in Ibadan and with the help of an area aunt( a lady like a family friend that lives close by), was able to learn to cook,clean and just generally be a lady. Years later,area aunty's nephew came back from yankee(he relocated back to naija) and developed an interest in Dee. when area aunt realised it was getting really serious, she called Dee aside and told her that her nephew was spoilt i.e doesn't know how to clean himself not to talk of cleaning up after himself!...Well you know how it is when a woman is in love,bad habits the guy oo

Inspiration for my woodin material...

Was just chilling at work today jejely doing my thing when my manager walked in wearing this very "sesky" top.Hmmn omo my mind just conjured up an image of an ankara (african print) gown that will go with the style of the top lol...of cos I did the right thing...I stylishly took a picture of the top when she was directly in front of me(shhhh) don't let her know I did that o before I get sued for woreva... reminds me of the day I was walking past Benetton at oxford street,saw this disgustingly shapely (beef!) mannequin wearing this pretty skirt,I quickly took the picture 'cos I know it'll come in handy once I'm loaded with materials to sew... Meanwhile those mannequins can be pretty annoying,notice the way they make every dress look good...till you wear it(tongue in cheek...not me o...every dress I wear suits me just fine!!!Pinocchio!)... Am off to the tailor's...

My journey to being an ASA fan

Meeen I should be working o! But I just can't help wanting to post on my blog…crazy isn’t it? One minute you living in this state of perpetual ignorant bliss to the world of blogville and the next second…it's in your veins like a virus…Na wa o! Heavens help me. Anyways where was I...ehen Asa...meeen that gal is the bomb, okay from the beginning, my first encounter with her CD wasn't spectacular in anyway...a friend of mine had come visiting from 9ja and was going on and on about this chic that could belt out songs but I wasn't having any of that story so she made me watch Fire on the mountain on You tube...ohh well I still wasn't gelling o! My opinion then was...she couldn't be for real and that she was a flash in the pan...you see I love music and I don't listen to just any kind of music...for me to listen to your music or to music...it must have roots(can't explain it but I'll try...you see I like to listen to the story behind the song and if your
