A Lot

A lot of stuff has happened in the past year.
after i started a new job earlier in the year everything has been quite a blurrrrrrrrrr.
only really bright spot has been my mum and my love.

it'll soon be a year and and and I'm sure of what i feel.
he's gangster i tell you. lol.

i need another job. things are not working out as i thought they would.
some restrictions I'm not enjoying.
I'm under utilized and beginning to feel demotivated. the exposure is not it at all. nothing forward.

my boss loves me but soon it'll be bye.

i now know how to tye gele. a relief that is i tell you.
i've been so scared of the thing for years.
thing is when you pay to learn something yourself, you take it seriously.
i put my head down and learnt.
i'm proud of me.
but, fixing strand by strand lashes is a definite no no for me right now.
i'll stick to strips. safer to put on and safer to take off.
at least you are sure your eyelashes, no matter how scanty they are, will remain.

have good weekend people.

to all those in love, keep loving.

Pigeon Impossible

Take a load of this.

It's amazing the things people think up and create.
na gift i tell you.

I was in stitches!

Have fun with it guys.

I stumbled upon this writeup and it made me look inwards as a woman. a female. the so called weaker sex.

i hope you enjoy it and talk to your female friends who keep seeing themselves as victims instead of decision makers.

Obama is a special guy. The date of his inauguration just fell on the right date. :-)

The office is giving me 2 cakes from my favorite cake place "Araba's Homemade" in Yaba.
Their cakes are to die for.

New Year. New Cheer!

I got a job offer from a multinational oil and gas company with branches in over so many countries!
yeah!!!

it's going to pay me twice what i've been taking home now for the past 5 months!
the benefits are not bad at all!
all in all it makes sense.
PLENTY of sense.

I feel kind bad, some worth, that i have to leave now when they need all hands on deck.
God knows i have put in my all the best ways i know how into keeping operations running.

It is scary moving again.
Lord, guide my footsteps. (on my knees).

I am a pioneer and i will succeed.

Don't Drink With ...

i watched this and it just killed me.

could not wait to share.

Horse Shit Continues

the drama continues from here.

that same day, after close of work, my phone rang and it was a private number.
i casually picked it and the first thing i heard was "Splash, Splash, a beg no vex"
i was like who is this then the voice struck me.
thing is since he left naija we have not even talked. we just throw greetings through his sis. that kind of thing. no biggie.
at first i was wondering what he was talking about then i remembered.

ME: WHO BE THE GAL? NA UR GF?
GUY: YES. A BEG NO VEX. NO MIND AM. I TOLD HER NOT REPLY THE WALL MESSAGE BUT SHE NO GREE HEAR.
ME: HA, THAT MEANS U DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE PRIVATE MESSAGE SHE SENT TO MY BOX?
GUY: WATIN SHE TALK?
(i then went on to tell him word for word.)
GUY: KAI! SEE EHN... I'M NOT EVEN PICKING HER CALLS.
ME: IS SHE A NIGERIAN?
GUY: NO. ANOTHER AFRICAN COUNTRY AND SHE IS NOT IN THE UK RIGHT NOW. SHE'S IN ANOTHER PART OF EUROPE.
ME: DO U REALLY LIKE HER?
GUY: YES
ME: OK. I WILL SEND HER A MESSAGE TO CLEAR THIS CRAP UP.
GUY: THE GIRL JUST MESS UP.
(you think?)
we sha laughed about it and i told him not to worry. sey the girl never see and she never know.

the next day i replied her mail. i decided to go the way of the Bible. a calm voice ..... harsh..... My people, i no go lie you, fight been dey my body. to tear her from limb to limb but thought more about setting an example. a good one to reflect my kind and gentle nature *evil laugh*
the mail went;

*woman,

1. your boyfriend has been my friend for over 10 years.
2. i use to date his younger brother and
3. his younger sister is my best friend.
4. we all grew up and lived together in Nigeria for over 10 years!

she replied the very same day apologizing for reacting that way and bla bla bla bla. how sh eno be naija so she dey feel uncomfy for e friends side and things. that my choice of words really got to here and so on and so forth.

i replied saying no problem. that i just wanted to clarify things put her mind at ease.
