Salty SALT

You know when you cook the perfect meal – the right aroma, perfect look, but it touches your tongue….damn! too salty, then you wish you did not add that pinch extra you added at the last minute well too late you just gotta eat! Well that’s the perfect description of my day…Saturday.14.08.10

I wanted to see my friend today and I had planned the day so perfect I was just waiting for the time to leave the house then I remembered and double damn! I forgot to collect her number and I can’t remember the name of her street (just retrieved my line-no contacts) so my forgetfulness was the extra pinch of salt…

So since I have permission from the man of the house (dad- which is very rear) I cannot waste it, then I call seun who wanted me to spend some time with him, I decide to go to his house, when I got there, he wasn’t home I waited for almost an hour, am just there biting myself all burnt but I could not do a thing damn! Why did I come here today??going to his place was the extra pinch of salt..

Being wondering why damilare has not called me all day to ask how am doing and all then I remember damn! I told him to last night to let me be for a while…once again my forgetfulness is the extra pinch of salt…

So seun came 45mins after I got there, not so much to say cos I was burnt, then we decided to go to the cinemas, we watched salt

From the beginning up until the end I was blown away then the end …damn! Why did it end that way??So the end of SALT was the extra pinch of salt…

But I had to eat and hope, that tomorrow I cook better..

Fairy Tal3s

Do fairy tales exist? Sometimes I wonder because as much as there is a cliché saying that ‘fairy tales only happen in movies and novels’ everybody has the ‘ever after’ only some don’t have happily included to theirs….


When I read novels or watch movies I relate myself to the characters -now I wonder how many characters I’ve been considering the amount of novels and movies I’ve seen!- anyways back to ever after-s Some people have happily and some have painfully sadly -that’s inevitable in life- these movies and book tend to deceive us to believe that everything would be happily after ‘true loves first kiss’ oh! Crap if its about that I should have like a zillion happily ever after-s by now-if you know what I mean *winks*- This is my definition of Fairy tales, ever after and happily ever after

Fairy Tale: This is living the story you’ve written about yourself from your dream career, to your dream Job, House, Girl –am sure I get the picture by now-

Ever After: Life after your fairy tale comes true

Happily ever After: Life after your fairy tale comes true with the notion that there is always light at the end of the tunnel – I’ll explain-

There can NEVER be a perfect ever after so what would make it a happy one for you is for you to know that for every NIGHT there is always a DAY, that’s gonna give you the happiness you need.

All we have to do now is pull out a book and pen and start writing the pages of your fairy tale and trust it in the hand of God…so now who says you can’t have a happily ever after???

But then again do you believe in fairy tales???

Re-Cap

I know it’s the 13th of August and I’ve not been doing my daily updates again as I promised I would and am sorry…am gonna give a load down of what has happened with the technology Intern in 2 weeks


‘Are you tomi? Why have you not come so collect your money?’ ok so apparently I was supposed to have gone to collect my salary since the end of july but I had no idea, so I have the smile at the corner of my lips; before today it seemed like a lot of things would fall into place (popsi’s complaint will def’ stop) after I collect the salary but now I guess I was wrong, I don’t even feel as excited as I wanted to be oh crap!

Sometime last week I had been hearing too much of death news, then I asked myself ‘what if I die tomorrow?what would the world remember me for?’ at that point in time I wanted desperately to know what people thought of me…when dagirn(RIP) died he was more appreciated than when he was alive, when debo(RIP) died too I heard so many kind words even from people that were nt friends with him then I just knew  I would have to die first to know what people think of me…But why does it have to take a tragedy to bring out the emotional side of we humans? I think we should learn to appreciate each other more cos life is really too short….

11th August

I’ve never been this careless in my whole 20yrs as I’ve been in 3months; misplaced a phone,misplace my retrieved line, my new borrowed ‘palasa’ has dropped like a zillion times, I forget things a lot more..OMG wats wrong with me? If this is what turning 20 causes then I think I wanna remain a teenager….

Work hmm…same old…get to work 15/30mins late, put on my PC, log-in, then yahoo messenger, opera (which has my twitter,facebook,360nobs,bigbrother,html),office mail acct…then am good for the day..let the errands roll in…on a second thought chai what am I gonna fill in my log book for a whole 2weeks*thinking hard*

12th August

Had a terrorist attack in the house this morning, a lot of times I’ve been the target but not today yeah! oh k! mummy and daddy are the terrorists and they shoot missiles and anybody amongst the 4 of us can be the target so am not today’s target and am all smiles but I know very soon my day is gonna come(it doesn’t take too long trust me as per the un-official black sheep)

Altho’ the men-in-black have not been here in a while I just keep hearing that voice (of course who else ma mama) ‘don’t cross the road o, if u are caught by the police I cannot bail any child’ that’s the only motivation I need to climb the freaking narrow pedestrian bridge…About 10 inches ahead of me is the ‘text message/current affairs’ seller hanging his hand like he wants to sell to someone ‘who is this one displaying book to on the bridge?’ comes to my mind and leaves a smile on my lips, like he heard my thought he looked back at me the first time and take a second glance instantly he changes the way he was walking and started doing the crooked walking step with more ‘book-seller swagger’ proudly flaunting his books in my face like he was sending a message ‘if u look at me I’ll take care of you with my book-money’ I just laughed and walked past him..like what was he thinking even IF I was a gala seller I would even take a first glance not to talk of a second?? Well I guess that is what fine girls (am not bragging) like me do to people..hahahaha

Hot Seat!!

As they say ppolitics is a dirty game but really who cares? well i dont care about politics and them presidents or governors, but if there is hype in the transport fare, airtime, noodles(my daily needs) then maybe just maybe i'll start caring but till then...

i know there are alot of people (especially girls) out there that are like me that dont care about the political sector of this country, I had a moment to reflect on this on my way home(I’ll blame it on the bad roads that made me have a bumpy ride) we really need to start caring for our country and state which now makes me think again who would win the election 2011??


Would it be Goodluck: the one that has only the goodluck for himself and sluggishness for the growth of the country?,

Dele momodu: who would (in my opinion) make Nigeria look like something out of a glossy paper and concentrate more on the entertainment industry,

Cris okotie: who would turn the country to an English class and the citizens would have to hold a

Dictionary anytime there is a presidential speech

Pat utomi: I think he is just trying to prove that he is not a quitter!

IBB: i could go on and on about how stupid he is tryin to make himself look...i think u knw d rest...

Ribadu:???

Honestly don’t know anything about all these people but the list is freaking endless and am wondering its only in NIGERIA you can have this endless list of aspirants tryin to be the No1 citizen of the country Or is that the national cake just too sweet?

Liable to do what?

This title brings one thing to mind, the popular cigarette ad slogan 'liable to die young' don't lie that was the first thing that came to your mind...

So I just finished a book 'tell me your dreams' by Sidney Sheldon and it’s about MPD and hypnosis, I have a earlier post about MPD and am going to stick to my opinion on that.

So am taking on hypnosis- I did a little research (I think am too curious) bt who cares about research and all...this particular had 3 alter personalities and was hpnotized to be able to talk to the alter personalities really does it work? Is it demonic? These are the questions I ask myself.

well for those of you that don't know what hypnosis it is the art of hypnotizing a person and the idea of hypnotizing is to make the person be in a trance, put any idea in the person's head and you make the person do anything you say even if it’s to bark like a dog. I also read that some companies use hypnosis in their adverts to make pple buy their products hmm...dats weird on a second thought no wonder you buy a product and when you get home u ask urself 'what was I thinking buying this?' we get that sometimes right?

And some people say it’s not demonic abeg abeg abeg (my new slang from BBA) that is the devil at its peak chai curiosity really kills the cat, it just killed mine bt as they say 'a cat has nine lives' so I have 8 more to go. But really we have to be careful about the things we watch, read and listen to this days cos it seems like everything is not safe anymore from the music to the movies now the adverts wow!! I think smashing the TV is a better idea to be on the safer side or what?

A zillion Branches!!!

I sit down Looking to this particular family tree hmm....Big twist if you ask me...

So i'll take this step by step for you to understand!
Ayo has like 12 wives, then he has a 'fling' with another woman we call her tomilola which results in a female child tola, tomilola has other children from her marriage, so tola has half Brothers and sisters from her mother's side and her father's side lets pause for a while(i think am getting confused myself).

So i ask myself why do this people of the old generation marry each other like there was no tommorrow? were there no moral instructions? or the men and women were just too horney not satisfied and could not get enough? really am still puzzled!!

Ok back to my complicated tree...tomilola has a sister lets call her dotun who also has kids and tola has children too which makes Dotun's children and tola's chilren second cousins...here comes the real twist... one of tola's half sister's(from her fathers side) children(a girl) and dotun's son now met(obviously they don't have the same surname or any connection at all except they have a cousin in common) confusing i know just take it one step at a time...Now my question is 'would the union of this innocent children be right?'

This twist got me thinking now do we have to ask everybody we meet 'where are you from?, tell me about your grand parents union??' to be sure you are not getting involved a relation especially if you are a descendant of 'OLOJEDE' where you dont even know everybody...So i would say be careful cos u neva can tell the next person you are trying to get invoved with might just be you Grandmother's half sister's grand child and dont forget to ask 'tell me about your family tree'!!

so i need feedback!!

DreaMers LounGe

I have this feeling deep in my heart that am gonna be a great person but when? just like GT(the guitar boy) i ask myself when am i gonna be when i wanna be? i have a lot of stuffs really wanna achieve well passion wise i think modelling s going to top my list(this is my personal advert o incase you know pple so hook me up), my charity foundation for orphans, then i also wanna dance and i still want to do all my computer stuff too am sure if my parents hear this i mean modelling and dancing, they are gonna have my head but really whats with parents and choosing for their kids? they live their lives and they dont want to give their children that privilede too(once again i say my children would be very lucky to have me as mummy)
Back to the dreams and aspirations, people make excuses that this country is this the economy is that, but i think if you really have a dream follow it through and if you fall stand up dust yourself and try again(k now am feeling like some fela durotoye...ish) anyway now considering everything i wann do, i don't want to be like jagz  jack of all trade master of none so i ask my self  'what do i do?'
Am just gonna take each one at a time for every stage in my life and stop dreaming instead start living my dream!

Oya greet me na!!! 28th july

OMG!!! 6.20am hmm...me wake up early i wish! i just knew that the early rising was gonna end yesterday and that was cuuz of the birthday excitement...So this day started on a wet note and honestly that did not make me feel so good
Now am wondering why she is on my case?? even if i don't greet you does it remove on strand of hair from you? of which that not even the case.
Am doing a copy of a document , i get to the desk and greet everyone, then i come bk to the re-do the copy, then you just say 'you don't you ever greet people'  then am trying to defend myself  but really why am i even defending myself? dont i have the right to pick who i greet? fine you are an elder and blah blah blah i feel its appropriate if u feel i need to cultivate the habit of greeting people why don't you act mature and tell me instead of embarassing me, i might just be younger but am not dumb or someone you can just boss aound really at this point am tired of the whole IT thingy i mean i've been working for and not getting paid and am still greeting you and u complain should you not be glad that am not hissing each time you pass beside me??
Really i think some people need to loosen up and stop being so uptight or rather stop taking their frustration out on other people, now she just stained my day. :(

The X-factor 23rd july

You know what they say 'old flames never die' well not in my case sha (just a lil tho') i won't say my old flames never die, i'ld say am just kind hearted and it makes me want to listen or be interested (even if am not) cos i dont like seeing people get hurt most especially when its because of me, and i know a lot of girls out there are like me, they tend to do things to please other people for a living, why don't you do something for your self something that makes you happy for a change honestly the world would not come to an end if you do, its is something i have learnt over my short years in this life.
So i had lunch with my X-boyfriend and i think for him, i guess he just started having emotional-rush well as much as i have weighed it(pros and cons) i just know it can never work out between us again.
Many people make the mistake of going back into an already collapsed relationship all in the name of 'i still love him/her', we need to face reality cos that thing tha made you leave would def' come back to haunt you(some are lucky tho' and it works for them) all the same you never can tell thats why we need directions from the creator (almighty God) to help us make the right decisions, come to think of it we are all sheep(this sentense looks wrong but i know it does not have a plural watever jare) that need a shepard...Now am gonna go to my very own shepard to ask for directions..i hope you do too...

mushy mushy me!!! 22nd july

somethings are too good to be true right?? really i just keep asking myself if its actually true or am dreaming, i never imagined that anybody would ever love me like you do or treat me the way you do No jor! am dreaming cos anything that is too good to be true is really too good to be true ooo... but why do i always feel this way when am with you??
Am sure many girls are exactly like me right now but really i just think we should look past all of the past 'bad' relationships we've had and give a chance to the guy (take it or leave it not all of them are the same)altho' i know its hard to get into it completely cos of the fear of getting your heart broken(come to think of it hearts dont really break we just get hurt) and stuff but really embracing the moment is the ish oh cos you never can tell...i decide to leave it all to chance and not because of my fear or trying to protect my heart loose someone that really and truly cares for me (then am loosing in both ways) so am saying embrace it and enjoy the moment and see how it all works out and if it doesn’t on to the next one!!!!

A Happy Groundnut Festival 21st July

For crying out loud this is the 21st century!!!now I wonder when do they want to stop living in bondage?? For how long would they continue to living in darkness?? Its so sad… then they want to impose their barbaric tradition on us cos we live here?? Me I cannot stay at home cos of some ‘no-women outside’ festival ooo and besides am not even a woman(at least not yet) am still a small girl and even sef my God big pass all of them.

So I get to work, the first thing I do is open my office mail (something I never do often) and hmmm *drumrolls* the mail is right there sitting in my inbox (duh..where else would it sit) and it states that am gonna get paid this July, I guess my birthday is not gonna be so bad afterall(there is nothing worst than being broke on your bday) so am freaking in a good mood knowing that now a lot of things would fall into place and I canget myself a good birthday gift for all of my hardwork(yeah all of this is not laziness oo try it if u think so!) now what am I going to get myself ehen??

Today is moving at cheetah pace well maybe cos am so excited and since they are doing their so called festival I v to leave work early today so am rushing down the bridge trying to catch up with mumsi then my lovely gown decided to hook a market woman’s market abi sales wateva (am sure u v a good picture) then it all comes down OMG its broken, do I just leave?, am I to pay for that?, why today?, this one that am wasting time I hope mumsy doesn’t leave me?, all of this and more suddenly rush through my small head and am just standing dumbfounded cos really this was the last thing that I ever imagined could happen to me (really don’t rule out chances)..the bottle of groundnut is –N250…wateva here is –N200 dats all I have, I pay the woman reluctantly and am off just like that??na wa oo! am just happy I wasn’t some crazy old market woman, I just wonder where my head would b by now.

We did not even get trouble from the festival people and this is the earliest v gotten home since I started work wow! The thought that am gonna sleep early bring JOY…Call me a sleepaholic if you like am proud!!!

Don’t rule it out!!! 20th july

I start this day with high hopes expecting to have a reply to my mail from yesterday but getting to work my hopes are dashed and it has determined my mood for today…
So today is not taking the turn I want it to then I take solace in the internet of course facebook, twitter, blogging etc finding out stuff ranging from the ‘white baby’ (no comments) to dele momodu’s 2011 aspiration for presidency(donno why am just seeing this) this am going to comment on hmmm….having mixed feeling concerning this wait oh is it not the same ovation guy that studied Yoruba in school?? Am not judging o I know that there would be more to the guy than ovation but presidency???dats too much if u ask me on a second thought we do need a change in this country…well if he wins and becomes president then probably Nigeria would look like something out of a glossy paper and I think that’s good for us..for now sha am still keeping my vote.
Yes o…they disappointed me oh! They are back!!! Although they still acted like typicals by staying away for close to a week…yeah the men-in-black are back in ojota and what does that say to me ‘HUMAN TRAFFIC’ on the pedestrian bridge so since everyone has to go through the bridge or get detained there is a 90% chance of meeting your primary school classmate oo…so I meet Damilare on the bridge when I thought I would not see him till next week now am glad am on this bridge…with all today’s findings I’ve learnt not to rule out the chances of anything happening from the black parents giving birth to a white baby, to dele momodu wanting to be the next president to unexpectedly meeting damilare…so am not gonna rule out the chance of getting my BB for my birthday Yeah!!!

P.S: Tobi finally stood up to jog today but i know its not gonna last long...

Sneakers craize!!! 19th July

Everyday am wondering what this annoying alarm is for? I innocently asked last night and guess what she wants to wake up to jog every morning..and she never stood up since all these days, so I just suffer interrupted sleep for nothing No way!!! Am up today and I just know I cannot be suffering for nothing so I decide to wake ma dear sister from her faraway dreamland (probably dreaming of MI well dats only where he would be..lol) she’s all sleepy but finally puts on one leg of the sneakers and could not get herself to wear the other leg after 5 mins she just dumps herself back on the bed (still with that one leg on) and sleeps back…wow so much for jogging in the morning..i just knew it would not work lets see how it goes for her probably by Friday she would have finished wearing her sneakers…
Today’s work is all good really nothing much to say about this place cos really officially v zoned out until they pay me…so I finally sent the mail requesting for my payment today oo now I just hope I get a feedback ASAP…I meet ene and olaitan (girlfriends from school) its was fun catching up and all being in the BRT with ene was probably a mistake sha cos she was gisting me about girls from school that starved themselves to get a BB and I kept laughing out loud and getting strange stares from stranger (that felt good tho’ being the centre of attraction in a bus full of almost 100 people) and am wondering na by force to buy BB??this is wat this craize has done to our youth of nowadays…Na wa o…Na real wa!!!
