Happy New Year everyone. I am so excited that we made it here and we are safe. That's good. This is my New year resolution post. I usually don't do new year resolutions because as far as I am concerned they are just designed to fail. I think the flaw is in the grandness of my plans eg. build the first Airplane in Nigeria, how can I do this when 1) I know nothing about engineering 2) I couldn't be bothered to learn. So that's always basically my problems with these resolutions but I am making an exception this year. Two reasons, first is I am staring down the barrel at 30 in a few years and I honestly don't want to enter into it in my current state of mind and the second reason is; I am just excited about this year. I don't necessarily get excited about new years but like a child, children don't really get the potential of a new note book. Only someone who appreciates it when it's full and  the wisdom stored in it. I am wiser now and I ...

I forgot to say  Happy Independence Nigeria in my last post. We have come a long way you and I. From when I thought I could conquer you, to when I tried, to when you did and I just came to accept it. Nigeria has come a long way some of it good, some of it bad, we are still growing I accept. I have been seeing  some videos online and a lot of brands and people have been going on about their reasons why they love Nigeria. I am going to be honest, whether you like it or not the major reason why we like Nigeria is because we can do as we like and get away with it, majority of the time. No justice, no call back, no ticket. Basically we do not Pay. That's why we love Nigeria. If you like, be a twitter activist with all your Oyibo Schooling or Dstv exposure, it all comes down to the same thing. If Police should stop you after you have beat a traffic light you either beg or pay. You are like every other Nigerian and we LOVE It. The other day I was taking my child home from s...

John and Evelyn fell in love at first sight. This was not really hard for Evelyn since John was dressed to the 9s. His watch was Cartier, his slipper  Gucci, he spoke like a Nigerian god all deep timbre and pedegree. He wasn't popping bottles no, he was too clasy for that, he ordered the best wine on the menu and their food cost an arm and a leg. This was the man of her dreams. he was also a solid 15 years older, but you wouldn't know. When Jon saw evelyn he figured he had seen an angel, beautiful and very sassy. She was smart held her own through the entire conversation, she was most improtantly the most beautiful human beign he had set his eyes on, Pettite and voluptous, she was a dream, to be honest, if she hadn't been so smart he won't have minded, she was eye candy enough to forgive all sin. He also noticed she liked expensive things, he didn't mind he had enough money to spend.  Philip was tired of Hard work. This was his 3rd interview and he figure...

I have come of age. It has been about 5 years since i wrote on this blog. So in five years i will like you to know i have come of age. Some of my friends are married some have kids, some are just fabulous and single  and we have all come of age. The Kardashians are a movement. Runs is taxable The classic distressed jeans have come back Denim is still king. Jonathan lost elections  and Nigerians are still queuing for petrol. Lol. But we have come of age. I remember when Nigeria had 24 hours light, water running from all the taps all the children were in school 1 naira was equal  to 1 dollar all the traffic lights worked and petrol was 40 naira a litre. Don't you remember this time?  well its true you won't because it never existed Our society takes 1 step forward 10 steps back.  There is free education but a mother has to pay about 11k in Naira to get her child books, uniform and other things  is education really free?. Graduates ...
