Blunders...plus Voting Campaign!!!


As the title aptly describes it, my post is about stupid gaffes I've made in my bearriful life!
People that know me well...know that I don't get embarrassed easily...after all *who you be*!
but what I'm about to relay to you made me want to enter the ground at that point in time...I remember two scenarios vividly!

Scenario one...

At a place north of the equator,I just made friends with a handful of people and we were all chatting on and on...
Then some nerdy looking guy walks past and I was like..."oh that guy is such a nerd...with his thick glasses and uncombed hair...I think I said something about him looking like someone that spent the weekend in the LAB...
Then a very nice girl in my crew said...ohhh that's my brother...need I say that I started stammering and looking for words to cover my obvious blunder!!!










Well I got introduced to him and I confessed my sins to him...brilliant chap he was...



Scenario 2...

I was on the lift with a man and a woman...the man stank of alcohol and his speech was slurred...he was trying hard to make conversation with us (the two other women) and I mouthed to the other lady...He is DRUNK!
she mouthed back...He is my HUSBAND!
I nearly died!!!

Can't remember other blunders I've made...but I'll update as I remember
How did the week go? Hope you've not forgotten to vote for your gyal right here...It's only a click away...so PLEASE VOTE FOR ME!
Yes like I said before...I am SHAMELESSLY soliciting for votes...
What are you guys up to this weekend? I've got two surprise parties coming up...




Have a wonderful weekend great people...and stay focused!

Such blunders tend to haunt us for the rest of the day and beyond. I once told my friend 'Your papa dey craze' jokingly only to realise the man (his father) was standing just a few metres away. I wished I could faint right then but I didn't. It was obvious the man had heard me so I apologized. the man simply ignored me and entered his house. Till date I still avoid him whenever I check on my friend. The weekend's over and I'm angry I have to resume work tomorrow. Lazy me!

LMAO. Gaffes indeed...at least the people in question weren't too bitchy about it i.e the sister and wife.

I feel you jare. I recall an incident were some lady visited my house. We were watching naija movie and one of the actors came up, we all practically tore the actor part based on his poor acting skills. By the time we were done, the girl muttered, "oh, thats my brother in law"

You're not a tree... make that move!

Follow me @Nolimit2life How many times have you told yourself at the beginning of the year that things just have to change? I am so guilty of this! But no more, if it needs to be fixed, then I'm going to do just that, fix it! Todays 3six5woman post is about someone who decided to make that move! I really hope you get inspired to not just accept the status-quo but give yourself a chance!  Yes You Can! Photo Credit:  http://www.deviantart.com/

Re: In The Name of All Things Men.

Was stuck on the train in the middle of no where for a while...national rail can like to get their acts together!What better time to write/type than then:) Here are the random thoughts that came to me based on Vera's radio show...but before then, enjoy this track... Don't blame the men for the lies,blame the women who will swallow any lie so long as it makes them look good...don't blame the women,blame the men who put them in that state. Personally I'm of the opinion that a strong onus is on the woman to decide not to be stupid...we are nuturing and very kind...a guy will take you on a ride if he knows he can get away with murder where he's concerned in your life. Sometimes we love the idea of being in love than love itself...it isn't about how you feel,if it was about feeling then I should have killed by now.Reminds me of the time my friend asked me "how can something that feels so good be so wrong"...the act is not wrong darling it is the timing tha...

Judging A Book By It's Cover

Sometimes we meet people and assess them based on their outward appearance...to our own detriment!!! Yes our own detriment because this act in it's self is absolutely unwise..."pun intended"!!! Yours truly is guilty of this from time to time...We sometimes have the tendency to want to box people into compartments we've created for them in our minds... So a guy who's trousers refuses to cooperate with the force of gravity(lol) is not cool and when a girl wears a scandalous outfit, that makes her a slut.... Gibberish I say!!! Absolute nonsense...it does not work that way...trust me, I should know... A recent global case is that of the beautiful singer Susan Boyle ...I watched the clip on You Tube and when she said she wanted to be as famous as a well known singer,everyone right down to the judges snickered at her and thought she was just another joker...when she opened her mouth to sing, she became a HIT at the cute age of 47!!!(Another blog topic for another day......
