Children of God, shout halleluyahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Verily verily you are good
verily verily you are good
verily verily you are good
Jesus you are good

(sings in ibo language)

Can Olamild really speak IBO?
That will be answered on another day o.

Everyday of my life is a testimony.
I was on the way to work (abt 2 mins away from home)
I realized that I had not prayed
so I turned the radio down and prayed
for safety to and fro.

I drove for another 7 minutes or so (due to road construction)
I stopped as I approached the red light;
and slowly proceeded immediately the light turned green.

All of a sudden, a " wannabe-nascar driver" sped past me and others.
the driver was creating his own lane obviously
he decided he was too much in a hurry to wait
so he turned one lane into two (in his head of course).
He got to a point where the lane could only fit one car
With speed, he overtook the car beside him.
Need I tell you that that was really dangerous?
There was not enough room to overtake
nor alert the driver to slow down for him to proceed.

Driver 1 that was behind him had to hit the brake hard
in order to avoid hitting him.
Driver 2 had to sway left to avoid hitting 1
Olamild (driver 3) had to sway to the right to avoid hitting driver 2
Driver 4 swayed to the left to avoid hitting me.
That went on for about 6 other cars behind me

We all hit the brakes hard and swayed in opposite directions
Our tyres screeched all together.
What could have been a very deadly accident (involving almost 10 cars)
turned out to slow traffic down for about 2 minutes.
We had to recover from the shock to continue.
God (to his own glory) came to our rescue.

I shivered until I got to work
I could not contain myself
I kept saying thank u jesus.
what if i didn't pray?
Agreed I braked at the right time to avoid hitting the one in front of me
what if the person behind me could not do the same?

Yall know it's not been up to 5 months
that I got hit by a crazy teenager
Now, another crazy fellow is trying to hit me.

At one point, I was about to start raining
curses on the driver for raising my blood pressure for good 15 minutes.
I decided, he wasn't worth it.
I'd rather give thanks...

Emi o yin baba...oba titi aye ooo.. emi o yin o... emi o yin o baba

Translation: I will praise you father...the everlasting king...i will praise you..i will praise you o father.

Thank u papa

I thank God for how far he's brought me
I really do thank him for the success of the
1st annual National Yoruba Youth Convention
held in Southfield, Michigan
on the 14th and 15th of this month.

Not only did I get to meet
the Mayor of Southfield,
I got to meet several
prominent people.
Lagos State, Ondo State, and Ogun State
governors were well represented.

People flew in from
london, birmingham, maryland,
New york and other places
just to attend this event.

My friend/inspiration Asiwaju Temidayo Israel
was a part of the event as well.
Mere words cannot describe how blessed
I feel.
I give God all the glory for
making this event a success.

MyTestimony

Where do I start when there's so much to say?
I woke up this morning,
laid on the floor; rolled around giving thanks for my life.
If not for God, where would I be today?
Who am i that he should watch over me?

Yesterday, I confirmed that he that
watches over me neither sleeps nor slumber.
I drove hrs away from home to pick up stuffs for O' Collectionz.
On the way back, my mind was unsettled.
I didn't know what to pray about so I kept
thinking "dear lord, let my business go well.
I place all I do in your hands. let it go well."

The more I tried to pray for prosperity
the more the prayer of safety,
and long life came to my thoughts.
I had that same feeling the last time
we drove to DC and had an accident on the way back.

I felt scared.
Why do I always have to know
when something bad is about to happen?
I kept on praying until I got to my area.
I gave thanks and decided to stop by the bank.

As I pulled out of the bank,
I heard my stomach growl. Mickey D's was
down the road so i smiled.
As I was getting close to the restaurant,
I pulled into the yellow lane in order to make the turn.
the minute i got into the yellow lane
all I heard was ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
and gbashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


My leg did not leave the brake
but I was unconscious for well over 10 minutes.
I looked outside and I saw a girl on the road screaming and crying
"Oh my God! I hit her. Oh my God! I hurt her"
She was lamenting while I was trembling.

People walked up to me to see if I was okay and I
just nodded. A passerby called the police and........
......................................................................................
she apparently drove straight out of her apartment complex
with the intention of making a u turn from the yellow lane
she didn't have the right of way
she did not check to see oncoming traffic
and bashed into me sideways.


Here you'll see a part of the damage
front door and back door was fully bashed.
When the police told me to get my license
and all, I had to go in through the window to get my bag.
Just thank God for me
and thank God for my sister
If she had been in the car, she could have been seriously injured.

The car is at the workshop
I had to tow it away from the incident
My insurance company said they'll get a
hold of her insurance company and sort it out.
For the main time,
I have to cover the expenses and wait for reimbursement.
I will have transportation prob for God knows how long
but I give thanks for my life


Please praise the lord with me

Thankz


Hope yall had a gr8 weekend
My weekend was fun filled.
I went bowling with some friends from church
and we had a good time.

I took notes 2 sundays ago but
I have not been able to share it with you all.
The sermon was about
"staying in your blessed place" = progression despite this recession.

I will find time to share it during this week.
I am still as busy as bee
but ready to launch O' Collectionz in May.

I urge yall to give thanks
I know things are rough at this point
I can tell because it is really rough for me but I am tough and will keep on going. I will keep on moving on. Yesterday's sermon was about praise/thanksgiving. They said it paves the way to blessings. I have chosen to continue to give thanks and praise despite this rough phase because I know it'll get me through. Join me in doing the same

Fitting In 1

HEAVEN

Isn't that the place we all strive to end up?
How come we find it difficult to do what it takes to get there?
Why do we let the so called "trends" "lifestyle"
"what's in vogue" "fitting in" take over what's important?

Why do we worry so much about fitting in?
Why have we made life harder than it ought to be?
Everyone's becoming a doctor...
must you be one?
What if your path is different?

You've traveled thousands of miles
to seek greener pastures
but have you accomplished what you came here for
or you've lost the sense of who you are in the name of fitting in?

Have you let worldly desire take over
the heavenly fire that ought to be in you?

Everyone is a "bigz girlz"
You want to be one too
You want a house as big as Emeka's
A car as sweet as Toyin's
A bank account fatter than Big momma
Perhaps you've had to omit some birth names
in order to let your numerous degrees fit into the forms...

Sure, we all want the best fruits life has to offer
but did you know toyin started off at burger king?
I bet you didn't know Emeka was born with a silver spoon.

Why are we forcing ourselves to be like others?
Why do we fail to appreciate
what we've accomplished?
Why do we see the good in others
but fail to see the great in us?

If you've been striving hard to get there
Know that you will get there and even go higher
if it's God's will for you.

Five

Happy Belated Easter Blogsville.
I thank you all for praying for and with me.
May God be with you all o.
I am doing much better now
Still cold but better...thanks to yall.
I went to the show but I did not perform.
I went there to show love and support sha.

My state of condition this past week
has made me think deeply.
Imagine having migraine for 4 whole days
with additional fever and sinus
....non stop pain...
I asked myself
what if migraine was a part of my daily life?
and then I dropped down and thanked God.

We do not know how blessed we are
to just wake up and go about our daily life
without migraine or pain of any sort.
Every day should be a day of thanksgiving.
I thank God
but I swear o..
I am not falling sick again.
If the thing wan come sef, i no go gree.
Here is 5 reasons why Olamild should/will not fall sick again.

(5) Mom will call at least 10 times in a day to check on me. "hello have u eaten? what did you eat? was it small or plenty? ehen did you use that drug abi you are lying? Do you remember what I told you.. a woman must drink lots of water you know. It is good for your body you know since you want to have kids in the future. Make sure you rest and cover your chest. Boil water...pour water on your head o.. water this and that. " Mom will go on and on.. the thing go taya you on my behalf.

(4) Mr. will worry until he falls sick too. "I already told you to sleep because you need lots of rest. If you cannot sleep, just lay in bed and relax. You stress yourself too much, I don't like it o. Stay in bed and rest, dont go anywhere. If you go anywhere ehn.. you this girl, I am begging you. Don't kill me with worries o." He goes on and on too. He even threatened to come to my house, and tie me to the bed with a rope...all in the name of forcing me to rest. Egbami! Do I look like easter ram? Even my girlfriend from florida threatened to fly in and join in in tying me to the bed. They know I go up and down all the time.

(3) My sister will wear everything I like cause I am too tired to shout. Yes o! That girl will wear my favorite shoe abi top abi scarf sef. She'll then ask me how it looks on her. Imagine

(2) I look starved. I always look like one abandoned guguru seller whenever I am sick. Even if it's just for a day, I will shed so much weight; one would be worried.

(1) I have weird dreams whenever I am sick. Last time I was sick, I dreamt I was in one of those disney movies...i think it was snow white and the 7 dwarves. The dream I had this time which was on friday night to be precise ehn... e get as e be. I dreamt I was dating chris brown. First of all, I am not a fan of his although i love some of his songs. Second of all, him too young and to top it all up sef... i fit fight rihanna? I get mouth but I can't fight o.

If I just dreamt alone, it would have been good. I actually dared him to dance with me. I told him I could move better than the girls in those videos they make. I danced in my dream in such a way that I could not even dance in real life. The dream ended with us hugging each other like say tomorrow no dey. I woke up hissing and swore to never fall sick again. I am tired of all this meaningless dreams.

All the same, I thank everyone that prayed for me. Please join me in a minute of silence for Imade. The students in Michigan as a whole are grieving right now. We lost a wonderful Nigerian friend and sister to sickle cell. May Imade rest in perfect peace.

Thankful

Everyday is a day of thanksgiving
God's been so good to me;
everyday he's blessing me.

Everyday
is a day of thanksgiving
I glorify the lord today.

It dawned on me yesterday
that I was weaker than I ought to be.
RCCG North America declared a fast through out the
month of February.
I fasted for the first 7 days
and fell sick.
I had to stop because I was required
to eat and take medication at certain times.

I became well after a week and did not
continue my fast.
Since then, nothing's been the same.

I have not been able to go to the studio this year.
I moved from a house to an apartment
I've been gaining unnecessary weight
"Mr" just had emergency surgery and is not doing too good.
and ...........................and ...........

Last night, I had a dream
I don't recall it too well
but the mere thought makes me shiver.

I was with a friend
We walked down an aisle together
I was scared as we took every step
because bodies were lain on our left and right.

I stepped out of the aisle and gave thanks
I said God are you trying to tell me I have not been thankful
for being alive?
Are you trying to tell me
I am not praising you despite this trying phase?

I walked away and went to an uncompleted building..
with someone I didn'tt even know.
After a while, I found myself racing out of the building
only to end up stepping on an animal
that put holes in my leg.
I mean tiny, deep, thousands of holes.
It was gory!

I ran, ran, ran in pain until I woke up
I looked up and said haba baba
this is not fair.
You could have just sent someone
why a scary dream?

I guess God had to do it the hard way
because he knows I am a worshiper
and I have not been up to that name this year.
Without further ado, I say

"Lord I thank you
You said we should give thanks in every situation.
I give thanks for love and life in abundance.
I thank you for everything
because I know sorrow may last for the night
Joy comes in the morning.
I give thanks for the person reading this mssg
I really do give thanks
and I am sorry it took this long
for me to say thank you lord."

Paying tribute...




This video was recorded 2 months ago. The drummer in white is my little brother and the one in red is my friend/co-founder of Yoruba Youth Corporation. We didn't even rehearse for this...you can even see my nappy hair. They just called me up and told me we needed to record a video- PAY TRIBUTE TO A NIGERIAN SISTER that passed on sometimes in April. This particular one is the second half of the video we recorded.


I am alive o my fellow bloggers.. `just busy with numerous events here and there. Have a blessed weekend. Happy Viewing!

PS: Special thanks to Mizz Opeke for letting me know about ONetrueMedia...I have been trying to upload videos for ages..

Boo's Bday

I remember how it started
and I shared a little bit of it here and there
It feels just like yesterday...
When I first knew you,
you were quiet.
When we first talked,
you were arrogant.
When we started dating,
you were the sweetest bad boy in school.

Over the years,
you've wiped away my fears.
Over the years,
you've grown to be
a loving, caring, dedicated,
independent, and responsible man.
Today, God has added another year to your years.

Even though we are miles apart,
We're joined by heart
For my soul rejoices with you on this very day.
Words are not enough
to express my gratitude to God for sparing your
life up until this moment.

On this day, i want to thank you
for teaching me how to love.
With all my heart, I say
Happy Birthday to the one who holds the key to my heart.

4 Magic Word II

Seconds grew into minutes, minutes into hours, hours into days, days into weeks, weeks into months, and months into year. ohhh I felt the 4 magic word at last.

The 4 Magic Word = L-O-V-E.

When knocked down, you'd think you might never get up for fear of being knocked again. In my case, I fell and didn't bother to get up because I fell in love. Truly, it's just 4 letters but it carries so much meaning; it feels like words... sentences...paragraphs.


Anyway, you were not pleased that I was spending too much time with my boys. I couldn't understand why you were upset at the time. Being the stubborn person I was, I refused to hearken to your warnings... you said you wouldn't talk to me anymore and I was like whatever. I felt like if you ignored me, other friends are there to talk to. I didn't understand what it meant to have you but I knew I had fallen when you were right in front me. You didn't talk to me. I was not upset but I was hurt deep inside....why oh why?

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

Is this what falling in love means? You don't see the person and your entire day is distabilized. You see the person frowning and you're worried to death about what could be wrong with the person. You see the one and you blush and hide in the bathroom. He calls you the same thing everyone calls you ,yet it sounds so special coming from him. I was really into you but it was obvious - you loved me more.


J.S.S 3
We kept our moments a secret. Even if other students okayed it, our teachers must not see us together. I told you I didn't want my friends to know about us (they'd tease and it can be annoying) and you were okay with that. You'd sit behind me in class kick me gently. You'd seat on the other end of the class with your head on the desk. You never listened to what the teacher had to say; you were captivated by my beauty. You never brought a pen to class, you were always borrowing mine so we seized that as a medium of communication. I'd write you cute little love notes (teeny winy), fold it neatly and squeeze it into the pen cover. I gently insert the pen into its cover and throw it . Sometimes you'd come get the pen. You walk back to your seat with a huge smile on your face.

We had good times. We had wonderful memories. I didn't know what love was until you came along. You were the true definition of love. We couldn't hide our secret for long...all because of you. Everyone knew me as the class captain that couldn't stand you. You and your friends were the big boys in the class and others girls felt dating one of you would be a priviledge. Two of your friends knew me as your gurl and 1 of my girl friend knew about us. Everyone else knew nothing.


Our secret came out when.......

SS 1- (10th grade)


It was the end of the semester. We usually have a week [a full week after exams when students just come to school and socialize. Attendance was not mandated during this period] of fun. S.S 3 (12th grade) students threw class parties everyday during this week. Other students could do the same but everyone was excited about going to the senior party. All my friends/our classmates went to the party from Mon - Wed. You didn't come to school and I was worried. I sat alone. Friends urged me to come to the party but I declined until thursday. I went to the seniors party and the seniors were actually excited to have their Chapel prefect there.

They were out to get me. In no time, I mingled and ehmmm they played the common game back then "Devil's Basket." For those that don't know, it's similar to spin the bottle. Devil's basket = (Passing round a small bowl/small basket with papers while the music is playing. If the music stops while the basket is in your end, you pick one of the lil wrapped up notes, read it out and do whatever it says. Failure to do so results in payment of some token perhaps, your lunch money).

When the music stopped, I was like oh no they didn't. Anyway I got up and picked a paper. I smiled after reading the contents. I was told to mention 5 song titles by Craig David. I was like shhh that's as easy as ABC. I was so excited, i went blank. I was able to come up with 4 song titles. The MC urged any guy from my class to help me out. One of my boys (nickname: ID) had my back. I thought I was done but they said I had to thank him for his help by dancing with him. They played some slow music and I yelled "Oh heavens NO." Out of curiosity, they asked me what genre of music i wanted and I told them makossa/soukous would do. There you have it,I've been a fan of the congolese/cote d'ivoire/cameroon for ages. My pal and I danced and headed back to our seats... it was a fun day.

On friday which was the last day of school. The day when we go on break (a month or so). I was contemplating on going to the senior party again since you didn't show up. My only girl friend came to me to tell me you were at school. I told her it couldn't be because you'd never come to school without saying hello to me. You usually stopped by my class to check on me before heading to your class. We were in SS 1 and yall know that they split yall up depending on your concenration. As a SS student, you either belonged to the science class, commercial class, or arts class. I was an art student.

Anyway my friend said you were mad at me because I danced with ID. Why would you be mad at me for dancing with someone? It wasn't like I was all up on him or anything. My girl friend was like " so you went to the party yesterday cause i was not in school. I was told you participated in devil's basket. They asked you to list 5 song titles and you did. You also said you'd like to dance. They played makossa for you and you objected. You asked for one slow song by celien dion. They said you held ID like he was your man and you two were grooving seriously...."

I didn't even let her finish because I could not contain myself. I was dying with laughter. Heheheheh so that's what they told him and he's upset... Whatever happened to trust? My friend didn't even let me go on. she had more to say. " he said since you've decided to do as you please, you might as well move on with ID."

Ewooo o you shocked me by saying that. I was so mad at you for not even checking with me before concluding. Was that why you showed up on friday when you missed school from mon - thursday. I was disappointed that you had little trust for me. I was hurt that you'd just ask to move on for such a silly thing. I was ready to give you a piece of my mind. As I walked up the stairs to your class, I could hear you going off on ID. Everyone was like what? what? why should you get mad cause i danced with ID? Are u her father or what? Come o, e be like say something dey between two of una..Within a few minutes, the news spread amongst school that we were official.

I could not bear the little noses being poked at me every corner. I went back to class to cool off. When everyone calmed down a little, I was set to come upstairs and give u a piece of my mind. I walked up the stairs and my girlfriend, and ID followed me. I looked back to apologise to ID for the embarassment you put him through. I looked back up (to go up the stairs) and you were standing in front of me. I was so upset that I decided not to talk. I didn;t even bother to look into your face. I asked you to step aside so I could go up the stairs. You didn't move. Instead you called my name... I melted deep inside but managed to frown as I looked up at you.

You didn't let me say anything. You apologised for everything and assured me that we were okay. HMMmmmmm

FAST FORWARD

We were about to begin our last semester when I came to America. You were the last one I saw on the day I departed. You tried to fight the tears but I could see it in your eyes. You held my hands and you were not willing to let go. I on the other hand could not even hug you because I knew I'd never be able to pull away from your embrace. I was going to re-unite with my parents (whom i had not seen in 5 years) and I didn't know when I was coming back home.

Those hours on the flight went by with me lost in thoughts....

FAST FAST FORWARD

Communication was great
but
distance became a barrier.
I look back at how we started
and I cannot help but give thanks to God
for teaching me the meaning of love
by blessing me with you.

It's been 6 years since we saw each other
we're still close.. it's like we're next to each other.

"There are two kinds of Love. The first kind of love burns just like the sun shines in the day and then it dies at night. The second kind is like the moon that's there all the time. The sun doesn't let it shine at day but it shines to shed light in your darkest night. This kind of Love that burns through day, night, storms, and never fades is the kind I have for you, will you be mine?"

You called this blue note Burning Love.
I thank my papa in heaven that our love is still burning. ..

On this Valentine's day,
I want to thank you for
helping me feel what I call the
4 Magic Word - LOVE
I thank you and I miss your presence.

Lord I love to call you faithful because that's what you've been to me all year round.
Aijay and WriteFreak tagged me to continue the wonderful thankful chain. I am to do Day 21 and waowwwww thanks guys 4 tagging me.



~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~

To me, thanksgiving means giving thanks to God for what he has done for us, not what we have done for him. For this reason, I say:

I thank you lord for blogville. Receive my praise o God for NaijaWorld, Tresu, YYF (yoruba youth foundation). I have been blessed with wonderful friends and loved ones. I thank you specially for the ones that tagged me to do this post (+ all the participants).

When I wake up in the morning, i think about your love, goodness, mercy, and kindness towards me. This makes my soul magnify you...my spirit blesses your holy name for all that you are and all that you've been = thanks 4 the breath of life.

So many times I've wondered what my life would be without you. I have strived to find my way but I've been lost..I've been through hell and you've held my hand up high. Like a hump is stuck on a camel, you've been attached to me. You know me and you always hear my cry. When no one's near, you're there to show me the way = thanks for showing me light in my darkest night


It is to you I give the praise, glory and worship. I owe all to you. You gave her life and she gave me life when she became one in love. They were as two peas in a pod and they gave me brothers, sister. They introduced me to the ones called cousins, nieces... = thanks for blessing me with a loving family



Oh that feeling that we've all experienced. A feeling that makes life worth living....we feel it and we find ourselves giving it unto others. It's the most important thing this season...ohh that feeling that embraces you..it picks your organ as its dwelling place but it touches all others. You infected him and he passed it unto me. It was no shock for my entire family and friends (online & offline) were infected with that feeling. = thank you God for love - is everything




One day an angel said quietly that he'll bring something special to us. Of all of the wonderful things he could bring, who would imagine a king? = thanks for giving us your only son JESUS


Mattew 25:15 says "To one he gave five talents of money, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability." She's been given numerous talents and she has no one but GOD to thank = thanks 4 the talents bestowed on OLAMILD




No words can describe what I feel. No words can explain the depth of my gratitude. I cannot show enough appreciation for what God has done. If I am to list everything I am thankful for, we could go on until 2020. For now, all I can do is bow down and sing..

Jesus I love you with all of my heart
I adore you, I'm the reason why you came to die
I praise you, your matchless love I can't compare
Jesus I love you with all of my soul
and I thank you with all of my heart.

I TAG ORACLE, LIGHTY, DIARY OF A G, and SPARKLE. I untag Princesa cus she did the post today.

Let's continue the story from Olamild's Collections.If you've not read the previous ones, this one will make no sense to you. Click to read I Hate My Father (I) and (II)

I HATE MY FATHER (III)





*/* */* */*(Someone bursts into the house)*/* */ * */ *

-- : You will not get away with this. You murderer. How could you have done that? (Yelling and ranting)

Taye: What are you talking about?

Wunmi: Who are you by the way?

-- : His ex. What kind of human are you? You are so ungrateful. Kenny took you in when no one else wanted you. He was there for you. He raised you as one of his, and this is how you thank him? This is how you show appreciation? By killing him?

Wunmi: do yourself a favor madam, leave now!

-- : No! Not until I’m done. When your father left you stranded to starve and die on earth, he…..

(Wunmi gave her a hot slap)

Wunmi: You don’t even know my father. Don’t talk about him like that.

-- : (shocked and upset) promise you, you wont get away with this. Do you know what you took away from me? (looking at wunmi) You took away my love. I’ll see that you go to jail. MURDERER.

Taye: Calm down child. What was that all about?

Wunmi: I don’t know but ……. (crying) she’s right. I will be sent to jail once they find out that I killed him.

Taye: Calm down child. Take a deep breath.

Tina: You didn’t do it girl. (consoles wunmi)

Wunmi: (hugs tina) I didn’t even see you walk in. I did it tina. I shot him!

Tina: But I was there that night.

Wunmi: Yeah I know but he was worth killing. I did it once and I’ll do it again!

Tina: But you didn’t do it. You wanted to but you couldn’t. You pointed the gun to him saying he’ll leave you no choice but to kill him and you wanted to. He held a gun to his own head saying you didn’t have to. He admitted the things he did, he had this mysterious look. He claimed he was in love with your mother but your father had her instead. Your father didn’t know about this . He emerged on a journey of revenge. Your poor father was not aware otherwise he would have left you in safe arms. He went on and on, but I can’t tell you all now. He haunted and hurt you with words and you couldn’t handle it anymore. You raised the gun towards him and he said I was ****ing you to get back at your father until I realized….He didn’t complete the statement. He laughed and shot himself. You fainted girl! I know you feel so much pain inside but you did not kill him. (Wunmi weeps furiously)

Wunmi: Regardless of who or what he was to me. I was more or less a child to him. I loved and respected him. I looked up to him. Why did he do all this?

Tina & Taye: You didn’t deserve it.

Taye: You did not wrong anyone. You were the best child one could ever hope to have. Take a seat child?

Tina: Great idea! You need to lie down for a while. (tina walks wunmi to her room) You’ll be fine, just relax. You need some alone time.(Tina goes downstairs to talk to taye)

Tina: No wonder she feels uncomfortable around males (sigh)

Taye: Oh I can understand that.

Tina: Well, what are we going to do? I’m sure this is going to affect her in so many aspects. I think she needs counseling.

Taye: We’ll see to it. Thanks for your support.

Tina: You are very welcome. I better see how she’s doing.

(tina goes back to wunmi’s room)

~*~ ~*~Narration~*~ ~*~

Would you? Should you? Could you have blamed her for what she felt? Time can be changed, but the pain can’t be erased. The memories will continue to linger though they are not precious. Danger’s no stranger here. You think it's over? Watch out for Part 4.

About OLAMILD- 8 weird things

As the lord liveth, the glory of the lord shall not be quenched in my life (Amen). This was what we recited at church yesterday. We are having a 3 days program at church; it started yesterday and it's being great. Pastor Komolafe from Toronto, Canada preached yesterday. He wil be preaching today again and Pastor Solomon Odejayi from Chicago will be rounding it up on sunday. I have been blessed and I'm not afraid to share it. I will blog about this crusade later on but here's a prayer point 4 yall.... I overcome and overpower every giant threatning problems in my life in the mighty name of Jesus... oya pra pray pray o. Oh yeah, i have the whole week off from school (thanksgiving break) . Princesa tagged me. I guess I'm to share 8 weird things about me so here it is... Happy Reading

(8) I don't drink cold stuffs. I have to have it hot or warm. You wonder how I drink orange juice or cold drink from the fridge. It's easy. I pour it into a cup and put it in the microwave. Everyone in my family thinks I'm wierd because of this. Na them sabi. When I go to parties, I ask for water because most of the drinks are cold. The reason why I don't drink cold stuffs is because it steals my voice. Give me a cold drink and my voice is gone in 5 mins. I have to strain myself when I talk.

(7) HAhaha this one is making me laugh sef. When I brush, people get scared. Apparently, I brush in a loud manner. I cough and scream...**Brushing** harggggghqwlcuuu k pu pu ....sis runs into the bathroom once to see if i was okay. She hissed when she realized i was only brushing my teeth. WHat can I say? i got that from daddy... If i come for a sleepover and I'm shouting while in the bathroom, don't get scared.. .I'm just brushing my teeth.

(6) I am obsessed with stuffed animals (teddy bears to be precise). Friends buy me teddy bear as bday gifts or xmas gift and i love `em more than anything. I've got coco, tade, chaz, yetunde, snoop n so on... Ok whatever. My teddy bear have names. Guess what? they share my bed with me.

(5) Whenever I'm not doing anything with my hands (i.e cooking, typing) , I keep both of them between my thighs. Don't ask me why. I don't even know sef...

(4) I have a birth mark shaped like the moon on one of my arms. My birth marks are usually shaped like (dot) ... just one of it though. I have one on my inner lip. is this wierd sef? i no even know anyway... I did this once and I'll never do it again. --> wrapped both legs around my neck. I was idle... I guess i watched too much wrestling and I decided to see how flexible i was. Don't think I'm krazie....oh well yea just once a year

(3) I LOVE WRESTLINGGGGGGG... SMackdown, RAW,u name it. I don't wrestle but I'd love to. It's my favorite show on TV. I love john cena, batista, shawn michaels, triple H, n so on.

(2) This sister can pick stuffs up with two toes( the big fat one and the one next to it). I pick pen, pencil, trash.... raise it up to wherever i want to put it. If I saw a paper on the floor and I don't feel like picking it with my hand, I use my toes.

(1) `Don't really know how to hiss. If you do something to me and I hiss, you'll think I'm trying to kiss someone. Don't laugh at me o. I practice hissing and I never get it right but I hiss anyway **hisses**

Hope you all are looking forward to a great THANKSGIVING weekend. GOD BLESS YALL. Special thanks to nameless poetical for helping me with my short new worship song. I tag unnaked soul, fantasy queen and arewa. Ciao
