I love love-stories. I may play cynical, laughing at the plot and lines while the screen moves from one sob to the next laugh but I love them. They give me some warm gooey-lovey-anything is possible feeling and I like that. It’s even better when you actually know someone who lives love story. This is […]
Giving yourself some credit? I had some pretty good news recently- I wrote an exam and I did ok. Quickly I rushed off the emails and texts, sharing my joy with my friends. The message wasn’t quite the archetypal Nigerian text/Email a la- “Come rejoice with me and my family’ etc but close. It went […]
Actually, the ‘toosh-er’ headline will be ‘cluck cluck’ or a birdie chirpy chirp but since I’m yet to see a chicken actually cluck cluck…. I didn’t do it! Yes I‘m chicken… all talk, no action, chicken, etc- I didn’t do it. The ‘no time’ excuses wont work- I had an extended weekend (oh, dear, I […]

  Location: At work (- what ’employer’ pays for) (and actually busy and all seriousey) (I usually can’t stand eavesdropping I don’t even like it. I don’t even do the ‘acceptable’ Lagosian gawking . I’m laying all these down so you can be sure I didn’t even try hard to listen, it just sorta ‘filtered’ […]
 About six years ago, I had an ‘accident’. It was one of those adventurous periods of my life- I braided my hair, and wanted to dye it mid-night blue. Unfortunately, since the hair refused to dye, my hairdresser suggested that I re-dye it and leave the dye in for a couple of hours. Well […]
“A word is enough for the wise…..† Every time I am about to speak at a youth gathering, I always have to go back to the rudiments of what makes one a winner because it is the basic, if implemented that strengthens your foundation to any form of success. I got this mail from […]
THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD THIS WEEK: LIVING RIGHT?. I grew up as a Christian- that really meant I, along with the rest of my then-nuclear family was chauffeured by my dad to church every Sunday. I didn’t have a choice. No one in my family did. Besides the free chauffeur privileges, it also meant that […]
