IT'S OVER + RESPONSE TO THE TAG...

I dragged myself to put this post up...cos I don't intend to end year 2008 on a sour note! there's no way that's gonna happen!!!I just need to put this post up and give the answer to "true lies" before '09!!! Well this is obviously the last post I'm putting up for year 2008... It's been a wonderful year and getting on blogville was one of the highlights of the year!Thank you all for being so wonderful...I made friends with some beautiful people and I got to view issues through the eyes of others...I learnt...I sure did learn great life lessons and I just need to say that there are amazingly intelligent people out there...God is sure great! Here is wishing you all an amazing 2009;may the good Lord spare our lives to see many more years on this planet earth and may we all fulfill purpose(amen)... Now to the answer: 1) I have never been in love! 2) Fashion is my passion! 3) I get bored easily! Well I must say it right here and now that 99.9% of you guys a

HOW DARE YOU BOZO!!!

How dare you touch her with your filthy hands and turn her to a punching bag that you vent your frustration on! For crying out loud be a frigging man and get over your stupid self! Those were the words running through my mind when I left my friend’s place…I was like: God do you mean she’s now a statistic too? This girl sacrificed so freaking much for this buffoon, she loved with all her heart, she gave with all her might…I know ‘cos I was there from the get go…but he still proved to be a beast… As far as I’m concerned, you’re a weakling, regardless of what she did to you (non by the way), you had/have no right …non what so ever to raise your hands against her… Now what makes me furious is the fact that she is pregnant with their second baby and she’s a sickler but this didn’t deter the beast from abusing his own lawfully wedded wife. Got a call from a friend asking when last I heard from this lady…I was quite vague about it and than was when he dropped the bomb on all the happening in

WoW!!!...I know her!!!

Hey blogville...how have y'all been? great I presume...well I'm good and God is great so I can't complain... well I've been busy with work but that hasn't stopped me from making my usual blog rounds and I must say, I've been exceptionally lucky...or should I call it blessed this December 'cos I've been the first to comment on some of my favourite blogs:-)...hee hee hee!!! and as per the post before this, I will surely respond to it sometime soon! Hmmm so to the main reason I'm putting this post up...guys I found out a blogger that I know(anonymously of 'cos) is married to someone I know(in real life)!!! Yep... Well hers was one of the blogs that inspired/encouraged me to join blogville...I mean you can't read her blog and not know that this gal has got sturves between her ears...seriously! So there I was checking out her blog on one of dem days...and I saw this post with pictures she took in one of the countries she travelled to (by the way I

So blogville...over to you...will be right back with my gist!!!

I believe in God!!!

This post is my view...it is not fiction...it is real!!! I don't know how to start this...so I'll just start! I believe in God because I have experienced Him personally and I came to realise He is real...His love for me is unfathomable and this has been demonstrated in several aspects of my life... At some point in my life, I decided to stop playing church and stop being your usual nominal Christian and just go all out to know Him...so I sought to discover God for me(He truly doesn't hide Himself from those that diligently seek Him) God is real...I realised this and experienced it through different situations I went through and how were it not for his grace,I wouldn't be! When I lost my mum many years back, He showed up as my Comforter , I don't know how I went through that phase in my life, but all I know is His grace saw me through...in retrospect, I know I never could have survived that ordeal without God on my side. When you've been broke,bust and disgusted

Guess what I did yesterday?

Hey blogville...it's Friday and I'm on a natural high...(Mondays and Fridays are usually my best days!!! hee hee hee)... Well guess what I did yesterday...one last chance...okay I'll tell y'all...got home yesterday from work feeling very high(and I don't do drugs o! but I've just been "joyful"!) Read Vera's blog...that was by the way 90% sane(sorry Vera had to chip that one in!) and although I was miles and miles away across the ocean from America,I was in the festive mood(fueled by her post by the way!!!) so I decided to call madam Vera ...well I quickly dialed the number before I could change my mind and the phone rang on and on...which reminds me...were you contemplating "not" picking up? anyhues...she eventually picked up and we got talking and blogville I 'mma have to tell y'all Vera's voice doesn't sound anything like crazy...as in she's got an accent(sue me!!!hee hee hee...to be expected shey?) an

You don't have to take it...

When people pronounce negative words into your life, you don't have to take it... You can't change what they say about you but you sure can control what goes into you... the choice is yours ... when you know who you are...(in Christ) and the fact that you're secure in His love...it really doesn't matter... ...As a matter of fact, that is their opinion and they are entitled to it... In the scheme of what God thinks about you,it is a minute and inconsequential issue...Chin Up!!! Saw one of my old journals and decided to put one of them up.... I guess different people have their reasons for journaling...I journal if I'm feeling low,very high,encouraged,inspired,motivated....in summary...I journal whenever,however,wherever.... ...I was probably spoken to with a negative tone or I overheard some one use negative tones to talk to another... But the truth is...the choice is yours... YOU really DON'T have to take it!!!

Letter From Obama's Half cousin :-)

A friend just sent this to me...and I couldn't help posting it...have a good laff !!!:-) Dia Broda Baraks, Congrats on your assumption to the throne of US. We your Nigerian famili are very happy for you and for ourselves. It is our turn now to chop we US national cake and our enemies cannot do anything about that. I was to come to see you personally at Wite aus but I was not allowed at the airport because of say no fisa. I told them I am Obama kosin bet they refuse me.Your new elesion is a very good news for the Obama clan in Kenya and the famili in Nigeria .

Becos they don’t remember the sister of your granfada mother dat went to Nigeria and mari a shief live near Lagos in 1956 which is also my own personal great grandfada. Now the famili has choose me to diskus some

The Gospel of Wealth

Man does not live by bread alone. I have known millionaires starving for lack of the nutriment which alone can sustain all that is human in man, and I know workmen, and many so-called poor men, who revel in luxuries beyond the power of those millionaires to reach. It is the mind that makes the body rich. There is no class so pitiably wretched as that which possesses money and nothing else. Money can only be the useful drudge of things immeasurably higher than itself. Exalted beyond this, as it sometimes is, it remains Caliban still and still plays the beast. My aspirations take a higher flight. Mine be it to have contributed to the enlightenment and the joys of the mind, to the things of the spirit, to all that tends to bring into the lives of the toilers of Pittsburgh sweetness and light. I hold this the noblest possible use of wealth. Andrew Carnegie , The Gospel of Wealth ,1889 Was going through some very interesting biographies and came across this You know it’s

"Testing" my patience!

Hi blogsville, been thinking seriously of what to blog about lately. Well the answer came some minutes back...Have you ever been the newest member of a team only for your colleagues...scratch that even your subordinates to start treating you like "hey you're new here and we are old timers...you really don't know what you're doing so take a back seat”... Well that is the treatment that was meted out to me o...hmmmn if only they know me well... I am not one to put my head down on the slab just like that..I no be mumu...i.e I know my onions and I'm worth every bit of it!!!(Stole this phrase from my bruva-in-law!!!) Anyhues got to this new office...new team mates etc...Not necessarily a new job o! And I got the "new comer" treatment as I call it... The funniest part of it all is that the people that do this are the ones with little or no authority at all in the organisation!!!lol...I guess everybody loves to map out their territory...but hey I am not here to

TGIF plus a teeny weeny bit of gist(random blog)

Hey peops...I know I've been AWOL and I promise you my reasons are solid...been busy to my bones... Well this is as random an update as it can be...decided to do this after mailing one of the bloggers I follow faithfully to always update(pot calling kettle black shey?) Oooh well! I am happy it is almost Friday...in fact by the time I post this, it should be Friday...I used to wonder what the excitement about the day was when I was a student and Friday,Saturday Sunday and Monday etc were alike as far as I was concerned then; it was for STUDYING...talk of having no LIFE! Well now...I look forward to my weekends and savour every second of it hungrily. To the students(and I mean full time pls...no part timers thank you!)...I am wishing you a very wonderful weekend...you can take a chill pill this weekend and if anybody complains...tell them I said so ;-)...to the "non-students"... enjoy your weekend wisely... Well as you can see...this is just me trying to keep in touch...alr

Internet at Work...to browse or not to browse...?

My people how una dey! It's been a wonderful weekend for me and I hope yours was as great as mine.Monday is just around the corner and meeen ko funny!(it is not funny!). Which brings me to what I want to ask...If I want to be faithful to my employer, does that mean blogging at work and checking the internet is out of the question? Is it even okay to send personal mails on one's work email? Okay the truth is the company policy/employee hand book says it is not right...my argument is: if I dedicate most of my time(9-5) to work, and my work is top notch in every aspect, why can't I use the internet,work mail if I choose to?please don't tell me I have my 1hour lunch 'cos I am not a horse jo! you work a horse till it is dead tired and then you give it just enough time to gain it's strength back just so that you can work it again...oh no...not me! I'm not having issues with my employer or anything of that nature...but it is something I brood on often. Even when I

Hello my peops...to the Nigerians amongst y'all (I happen to be one as well!) I'm saying HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!! No pun intended but have you noticed that Nigerians are very unique people? I can't explain it but the truth is...we have the X factor...we stand out,we are intelligent people,very warm,very stylish,very classy,very informed,very sharp...yes I said very sharp...by the way when you suppress sharp people,what you get is 419ers(con men) 'cos there's no avenue/oppourtunity to express their creativity!!! Anyways I am not blogging about the con men today, I am celebrating the amazing country called Nigeria...I know we've come a long way 48years is not a joke. I know we're taking baby steps at the moment but I know that with time and that is very soon(in my very own life time o!) we will be taking giant strides! Half of what we've gone through and are still going through doesn't occur in other countries before war errupts...but we are scaling t

Thanks favoured girl for the award,I really appreciate it and I hope I live up to the honour (by updating my blog regularly...I guess and checking up on my peops on blogville more often!

Dry Patch

I guess we all have it/go through it once in a while...you know the season I'm talking about...where every thing seems to be static...you're neither going forward nor moving backwards...you're just there... In order to encourage my self in times like this, I tell myself I'm gaining roots...depth...whatever you choose to call it is what I'm gaining. It so bad that I can't even be bothered to update my blog or leave comments on people's blog(horrible!) I believe you're all doing very well and living it up...the way it should be...off to check out blogs and gain more depth(smiling!)...

Dear Lord...

Lord in you I have found refuge and solace even in times of need. I am amazed at how a big God like you can care about an infinitesimal minuscule like me but You do because Your word says so and You honour Your word higher…way higher than Your name! I was created in Your image and You inscribed my name on Your palm. Now that is amazing Lord especially when I know the earth is Your foot stool…I can’t begin to imagine what Your palms are like… You loved (still do) so much that You sent Your only begotten son to die for my sins…now that’s major! You love me so much that You care about every tiny detail that involves me…as a matter of fact, a strand of hair can’t leave my body without You knowing about it…Lord I’m amazed… So I know that nothing ever happens to me by mistake; it is all working together for good. Though I can’t physically see You, I see You around me…I see Your goodness and I see the reality of Your love all around me…only a fool will say there’s no God…or how else can one e

When love hurts

The ones with the power to hurt you most are the ones you love most...now I'm not talking about the relationship between a man and a woman...I'm talking about the usual philia relationship between friends,siblings etc. When I say you are my friend, I have exposed a part of me that I won't normally show the whole world and that in itself is deep. It takes a lot of trust in you to make me call you my friend...only a friend knows the "best" part to stab you...that'll hurt deeply... sometimes, we fight to deepen our relationships and sometimes...the fight only helps us to realise this relationship was for a season... sometimes...it takes the agape kind of love to make me want to relate with you regardless of what you've done or... said ... Right now...I need a long dose of agape...Jesus take the wheels!!!

How to say no "nicely"

My people see me see something o! Please how do you tell a guy NO and mean NO in a very nice way? Seriously o! When it comes to guys and relationships…one thing I notice I lack is “TACT” as in I tell it as it is…I don’t care who’s ox is gored! So for instance if a guy walks up to me and asks me out etc…once I’ve said no, I expect the guy to step aside and let me be…and if he persists…kai…that is YAWA! ‘Cos I’ll give him his life history and even lecture him a bit about his future! Well this has been the case till I became closer to my maker and I realised I needed to be relatively “civil” to people If I want to lead by example… So that’s where I’m at right now…I don’t want my faith to be questioned at all…but if this guy can’t understand the simple plain ole English I’m speaking to him… Meeen I may have to resort to proper jungle language…unless I get a line that works from you guys...

Growing a business...

I got a mail from a friend and it showed the interior of one of the Google European offices. I really don’t know how true this is but…I was flabbergasted! It got me thinking about doing business again! I just thought to myself my goodness…when/how will I ever be able to build a great organisation like this? I know it is good to start small and think big (cliché!) but how does one get to this point? How does an individual start a business that will outlive him/her? Any takers in the house? P.S I’ve been trying to upload the pictures that left me gobsmacked forever but I can’t seem to get a hang of it…either that or there’s a restriction on my computer(am at work!).

Understanding the Enigma Called Me

For a very long time, I saw myself through the eyes of others. I saw me the way they saw me…I never disappointed; …They say she is crazy…then I act crazy… They say she is blunt and daring…then I act blunt and daring… What a fool I was! ...” Confident fool ” as the Amplified Bible will call it. So I decided to go on a journey… A discovery journey to understand who I am and what I’m about. But then, I realised I could only know me through the one who made me… So I resorted back to the manual of life…to give me direction … I am still on that journey and everyday has never been the same. Slowly but surely…I am getting there.

To be...or not to be?

Sometimes I wonder Lord; Am I in the right profession, my heart yearns to be an entrepreneur but my body can’t seem to make the move to be…what I desire to be. People talk about the “great potential money” to be made as an accountant…especially within the financial services…but when I hear this all that goes through my mind is…is it worth it? Is it worth giving my whole life to an organisation and getting paid a large sum of money that I won’t even have the time to spend? Is it worth it not having a life for a very long time (probably for as long as the span of my career) in the name of having a J-O-B (just over broke!). Is it worth the hassle, toiling morning and night at something you know will never be yours regardless of what you do(even EDs are sometimes forced to resign)? I keep saying I want to be an entrepreneur but the fear of the unknown alone will not let me lift a finger in that direction. And the: what ifs…yes what about the ifs… What if it was a big mistake? What if I ca

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

Why will you do that?

Watched a movie about a guy who promised to marry a gal come rain or shine…only for him to find out about this gal's "slightly” colourful past. Guess what my guy did? He did nothing o…He just travelled out to Yankee (he was about to go before he heard anyways) without confronting the issue and left the gal to roast for years. Babe was waiting for bobo and fending off all suitors just because of Yankee love o! Inspite of the fact that guy hadn't communicated in ages. This movie just got me thinking like crazy! Why do we make promises we can't keep...or why do we not own up once we realise we can't keep the promise. Poor chic was left hanging like a pendulum forever because of Yankee bobo .Only for him to come back with another mgbeke hanging on his arm... Don't get me wrong I'm not saying the gal did well by hiding her past from the guy…now that's another epistle for another day 'cos I have my take on that! He should have set the gal free before h

Writer's Major Block

Hi Blogville, I can't remember the last time I was here! Gosh it's been ages...for some reason,my brain has refused to co-operate with my fingers to type something worthwhile...hence the reason I just check out my favourite bloggers' sites on blogville and exit sharpishly. But now,I've decided to put down whatever comes to my mind regardless of how stupid or unintelligent it is!) yeah that's what am going to do...otherwise my account will just expire on blogville and I still won't be the wiser for it. Having gone through my fav people's blog,I really wonder how they come up with very intelligent write ups o!(God please help,open my mind and let me see through your eyes.) Ok let me just say that the most recent development that has really made a difference in my life is the fact that God has pruned me and is still pruning me and helping me to NOT be a judgemental human being...imagine o! It was an eye opener for me and I prayed that day to see people through

The croissant way of learning!!!

Woke up quite late today...knew it was going to be one of those days!As if that wasn't enough prohecy,I got to the station to find out that I missed my train(runs every 30mins) was so gutted...decided to get myself some croissant since it will be too late to start taking my usual bowl of cereal at work. Just as I was about to cross the barrier,I found out my monthly ticket wasn't with me...(for heaven's sake 160quid down the drain). On getting back to the pastry shop,the cashier told me he didn't see anything that looked like my "oyster"...right...I knew he was lying...don't ask me how.It was at that point I decided to choose the way I'll react...my word...did it work! I just chilled out called the office and told them what the situation was...mentally talked to myself that it could have been worse,what if it was my bank card that was stolen moreover the card was registered so i get to have a refund. so there you go,after a series of positive thinking,

My Second Attempt!!!

This is a major beginning for me.I decided to start blogging a year ago,but it never saw the light of the day cos I was soooo busy,I couldn't keep up,but now...I ready to go into this again,and I intend to think out of the box(God help me!!!). Having read stories from wonderful bloggers like silent screams,30+,Bimbylads and blackjamesbond,I am inspired to give it a go again,I hope this will be good therapy for me...
