Nonsense & Ingredients

At times like this,
I really wish I had the Nokia 3310.
It will not freeze
It will not take forever to load (like a dial up pc)...
In fact, I am tired of high tech.

I went for a job interview some days ago
and forgot to print directions back to my destination.
Why not get a GPS right?
well i had one and it was stolen
I am still upset and thinking about getting a new one.

Supposedly, I was to turn left somewhere
but made a right turn instead hmmm
before I knew it, I landed on a strange freeway
I was like shooooo this ain't I-94 and it certainly is not the way to my house.
I took the next exit thinking I could just stop by the gas station and ask for directions
There was not a single one in sight
I found myself in a different city
Yes o different city!

I drove for over 20 minutes and parked
I decided the next thing to do was check the name of the
street I was on and call someone to map out directions from there to my house.
I turned to my phone and ehhh

the thing decided not to show any of my contacts.
I took out the battery
I even removed the sim card, cleaned everything up and put it back in
The phone came on and froze on me

Imagine you in a strange city
so quiet
no phone
no one to come to your rescue.
I was so mad, I almost spoke in tongues.

I did all I could and the phone did not yield to my pleas
oh yes! I was begging the phone o
I started freaking out after a while
at some point, I believe I prayed
"father, this is America not 9ja now
she comot for house, she no come back
which one be that? pls, let me see my family o"

Anyway, I decided it was time to keep driving until I came across a living soul
I drove for a long time (another 30 minutes) and ran into two older men
They gave me directions and I got home safe and sound.
I CAN NOW BOAST THAT I KNOW ONE MORE CITY (LOL)
It's funny now that I look back but it wasn't funny then.
My phone froze for another 48 hours after that incident o
I gave T Mobile a piece of my mind and now
I am "phone-less" for a week.

*hiss*

hmmm

Life without love
would be....

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."

Happy V Day

Love is simply defined
by what it is...

A Girl's First Time

It's your first time. As you lie back your
muscles tighten. You put him
off for a while searching for an excuse, but he
refuses to be swayed as he
approaches you. He asks if you're afraid and you
shake your head bravely.
He has had more experience, but it's the first
time his finger has found
the right place. He probes deeply and you shiver;
your body tenses; but
he's gentle like he promised he'd be. He looks
deeply within your eyes
and tells you to trust him - he's done this many
times before.

His cool smile relaxes you and you open wider to give him
more room for an easy entrance.
You begin to plead and beg him to hurry,
but he slowly takes his
time, wanting to cause you as little pain as
possible. As he presses ;closer, going deeper, you feel the tissue give
way; pain surges throughout
your body and you feel the slight trickle of
blood as he continues. He
looks at you concerned and asks you if it's too
painful.Your eyes are
filled with tears but you shake your head and nod
for him to go on. He
begins going in and out with skill but you are
now too numb to feel him
within you.

After a few moments, you feel
something bursting within you and
he pulls it out of you, you lay panting, glad to
have it over. He looks
at you and smiling warmly, tells you, with a
chuckle; that you have been
his most stubborn yet most rewarding experience.






You smile and thank your
dentist. After all,it was your first time to have
a tooth pulled.



Naughty, Naughty!

The Wrong Package

A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband.
For many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom, and knowing her husband could afford it, she told him that was all she wanted. As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husband had purchased the diamond ring...
Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his study room. Her husband told her how proud he was to have such a good wife, and told her how much he loved her.
He handed her a beautifully-wrapped gift box. Curious, the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the wife's name embossed in gold.
Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, 'With all your money
you give me a Bible? and stormed out of the house, leaving her husband.

Many years passed and the married lady was very successful in business. She
managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family, but
realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps she should go
to visit him.
She had not seen him for many years.
But before she could make arrangements, she received a telegram telling her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to her. She needed to come back immediately and take care of things.

When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness and regret filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it years ago.

With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Her ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse,
Matt 7:11, 'And if you, being
evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your
Heavenly Father which is in heaven, give to those who ask Him?'

As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of the Bible.
It had a diamond ring with her name engraved on it, the same diamond ring
which she saw at the showroom. On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words...'LUV U ALWAYS'....

How many times do we miss God's blessings because they are not packaged as we expected?

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.

IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKAGED THE
WAY YOU WANT IT, IT'S BECAUSE IT IS BETTER PACKAGED THE WAY IT IS!

On time 2

Isn't it amazing how we always want

people to be on time when we need them for something

but we are never on time when it comes to God's work.

We drive miles during winter in the stormy weather

to get to our place of work

but we choose to sit home on sunday

and say stuffs like "did you see the snow outside

it's as high as mount everest!"

Isn't it amazing how we always want God to answer us on time

but the last thing we do is call him.
When he lets us sleep, wake and go about our day without

problems; we forget to thank him. We then run to him

when we're facing problems

and then we complain that he's not on time.

--------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------

You read the previous post and your first reaction was

disappointment. For some, it was anger.

Do you know that you are DEE?

You are the one that never shows up at the

most important time.

The important meeting

was the solution to your problem

and you were nowhere to be found.

Have you thought about this?

You've been facing a particular problem repeatedly

and you have prayed over it.

God finally decided to pave way for you

through the sermon for the day

and guess what? You were late!

You never even showed up!

Pastor already skipped the solution

before you stepped into the church...

--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------

Be on time for God

so he can be on time for you.

Thank him on time

so he can help you on time.

Call on him on time

so he can answer your prayers on time

--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------

Bear in mind that his ways are not our ways. When you pray repeatedly over an issue and you do not see a solution; God is not ignoring you. He is a God of amazement. He is waiting for the perfect time to not only surprise you, but shock those around you. Don't rush him into giving you a beetle when he has a bentley in stock for you.

Take care Blogsville

On time 1

Let’s call this person DEE

Dee is your friend. At times you view dee as your best friend. Of all the friends you have, dee is the one you can count on any day any time. Dee will not say you came too late or you should have asked for help earlier. Dee might show up late when you call at the last minute but dee will be there.

One day, you called dee and said “I need you to cover for me. I ought to be at a meeting at 8am but my flight’s been delayed and I cannot be there on time. I need you to attend the meeting and please be on time. Please be on time because we have to impress these guys at the meeting. If you get there on time and give a great presentation, they will assign the contract to our company. This could land us thousands of dollars. Please dee be there on time. You know we’ve aspired to land a deal like this and I am really counting on you to get the job done.”

“Don’t worry; I got this. I got it covered. We will get the deal. Just relax, board your flight whenever you can and get here safe. Okay? Bye”

The meeting commenced as it was supposed to be but DEE NEVER SHOWED UP.

React to this as if dee did it to you. what would you say or do?

Face Book

Why should I join?

Babies

They are God’s gift to humanity

They are little and precious.

They always have things their own way.

If all it takes is giving mummy a hard time

So be it as long as they get what they want.

They are lovable and irresistible.

They have the cutest outfit and the brightest smile.

Imagine a teeth-less smile!

So different yet flawless.

They are my precious

They are my love

I hope to have them some day.

NOTE: That's my newest God baby and I

It's a good day
A mighty good day
It is a good day to praise the lord

Happy New Month to you all
May new and great things never cease in your life.

A friend and I were having a discussion
more like an argument
and it was never resolved.
I'd like to know your view on it.
How do you know you are addicted to something?
The topic was sex addict
Is a prostitute a sex addict?
We'd all agree that when someone does something
more than usually and uncontrollably, s/he is addicted to that thing.

If you think about sex more than often
and never actually do it
Should you be considered an addict?

If a lady sleeps around
is she a slut or an addict?

Sturves

How una dey o?
Everything just dey happen from left to right.

Just this week, my car was raided at my school.
I got out of my 6pm class and thought i should get something
to eat outside school before i head back to the library.

About a feet away from my car, I saw my stuffs on the floor.
I walked around my car and saw different items from my car all over the floor,
All my doors were unlocked
and that surprised me because i didn't leave it like that.

Anyway, I entered my car to find out that
my money was gone.
I usually keep singles and coins in my storage just
in case i need to get a drink from the vending machine.
That one no even pain me..

I looked at the gift bag i left under the passenger's seat
and I realized that my gift was gone
The best gift i had fr my birthday
which I only used once had been stolen.

MY GPS got jacked.

To say I was mad would be an understatement
I was close to tears. I rushed down to the security office
and shared what i could... i was really fighting the tears o.

I con expect them to go find the surveillance camera
wey suppose dey the area where i parked my car.
them no mention anything about camera o.

They asked me if I wanted to file a report and I'm like hell yea.
I was so pissed off. They said I could file a school report and a police report.
I asked what the school report does and they said
"well it just stays in our record that a car was raided
and items were stolen."

What does that do for me?, I replied.

Nothing it's just in our records.

I told them to keep their report and asked about the police report. The security officer said he could call the sheriff but the sheriff would take at least two hours to get to the scene because it's hard to get those people to come down here. I was like 2 what? Are you kidding me? This is an emergency! My car got raided and my personals were stolen and you expect me to sit here anticipating the arrival or a sheriff that might not show up.

I was mad. I just left the scene.

I am calm now and many friends including my professor urge me to file a report. I will do that asap.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Thursday, I got a call from two of my friendz
they wanted me to go to the studio and help them out with some sturves.
I'm like no yawa make una holla me at 8pm.
We got to the studio at 8:30

As we con reach studio, I asked wetin them wan record
One of my friend had his lyrics ready
and the other one had nothing
I'm like how do you come to the studio unprepared?
You have no lyrics, no tune and you want to record.

Him tok say no be wetin i bring you here for be that?
He told me to write a chorus for him.
I took the verse lyrics from the other guy (flo) and
with that, I was able to write...

"Why, why you do me like that?
Girl don't you know you're supposed to be here?
Don't even fake it girl
kissing me like you're missing me
You thought you played me girl
but you played yourself babe"

I gave him (slide) the tune, he sang it and i liked it
so I watched them rap and sing.
They ended up throwing me in it for a sec
just to do a little ad lib

The song you hear right now is what was recorded.
The title is "why you do me"
Without further ado,
I introduce you to my friends
FLO and SLIDE

BUSY LYFE....again

`Back to the busy me Calculus has sent me to the math center. I stole this pics from my school website

My teacher was telling me that the book I have contains Calc I - III. That thing is heavy as a rock. Besides school my project =YYC is consuming a lot of time. The cultural dancers have to perform this weekend They will also perform on October 4 at the 48th Independence of Nigeria (Southfield, MI). Put me in your prayers. You can always CHECK HERE for updates incase I'm too busy to update this blog.

Everybody, Anybody, Somebody,Nobody!

There was an important job to be done and everybody was sure that somebody would have done it,
but nobody did it. Anybody could have done it, but nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that because it was everybody’s job.

Everybody thought anybody could do it, but nobody realized that everybody blamed somebody when nobody accused anybody.

Amazing Grace

Have you any idea of the mess you were in or moving toward
when God reached down and saved you?

Perhaps an illustration may help you get the picture.

You took your children to a petting zoo and a little lamb
comes running towards you, you probably won't be afraid
because lambs are harmless.
You might let your kids pets it.
You might reach out your hand and let it lick you.

Let's say you're at the zoo and the alarm goes out
that a lion has escaped from its cage.
If you're standing there and that lion comes running towards you,
you'll be terrified and start to run because you know what lions can do.

But just suppose that the runaway lion
corners you in one part of the zoo and comes up to you
Instead of attacking you, it gently licks your hand the way the lamb did.

Whose gentleness would you appreciate more?
The lamb or the lion?

I bet you'd appreciate the lion's gentleness more because
it could have easily destroyed you without violating
its nature as a lion.

That's GRACE people!
Grace is God's kindness, and gentleness towards us.
We sin every time! God could have backed us into a corner
and destroy us without violating his holy character.
But he wanted us to know that there is a meek side to him
just like the lion did in the illustration.
Instead of God expressing wrath when we sin,
he wants us to run to him as his very own children.
He sacrificed his only son so we might have life in abundance.
Isn't that amazing?

Isn't this AMAZING GRACE?

Just Yesterday

I saw a lioness
turn to a lamb.

I was in the library and thoughts of her came to me
I sent a text message asking her if she was home
She said yeah so I gave her a call.
I am tired o. Your house is close to school
I just need to rest my head for a while.
I have an evening class though
Okay... guess what?
I have bad news for you!, she said
I asked her what was going on
and she told me she couldn't say it on the phone.

I headed straight to her house
I greeted everyone
They smiled and said hi
That was unusual...
No one's picking on me
No one's telling me how I need to trim my eyebrows
Is everything okay?, I asked.

She looked at me and looked at her sisters
Everyone was silent for almost a minute
In a chorus, they said "My father died"

Oh! Oh no! Oh waow!
this is too much for me to handle
Oh God!

I looked in their faces and I saw them try to fight the tears.
They had been called from Nigeria
they were told he was sick on sunday
and died on monday midnight.

It was too much for me to bear
Words could not be said
Feelings could not be expressed.
I picked up my pen and paper
Within 5 minutes,
I wrote two poems
One titled "Out of sight is never out of mind" and "H-O-M-E"

I shared it with them and I could
read their minds just by looking into their eyes.
They took the written piece from me
and placed it on the shelf.
Some of them went out to find
black attires for their mother.

She sat by me
We were alone
She looked at me
and she said
This life is too short
Imagine me having sleepless night over a pair of shoe
getting bothered by material thing
when someone is out there dying.

I'm sorry.

She got up and walked to the kitchen
to answer one of the numerous
phone calls she had been receiving.
For the first time in 3 years,
I heard her broke down
I saw a lioness turn to a lamb
She was the strongest of all my friends
She was the "no nonsense chick."
She was the one with strength
to fight tears
and here she was helpless.

she got off the phone
came back to me
Looked me in the eye and said
"Olamild I am fatherless
On father's day
I'm gonna look up to the sky
and say happy father's day to thin air."

No words can describe the pain I felt when
those words came out of her mouth.
I was there from 11:15 a.m. to 10 p.m.
I felt the family's pain and
I just want yall to pray for this family
I cannot mention the last name
because they are yet to tell one of the children
because she is away from home.
They do not know how she will take it
especially being alone where she is.

Please pray for my friend.
She's very dear to me
Pray that God sends comfort to that home
because they really need it.

SPEAK UP

And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman
and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women,
do we hate our women?
I think it's time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women,
be real to our women

Bloody Massacre....

Don't let the title scare you o..
It's not humans this time.


PROBLEM

I woke up one day and I looked at my imaginary lincoln navigator aka "my car." I said to it you deserve some scrubing. Without hesitating, I grabbed car soap, hose, and car wax. It took time but the car was spotless by the time I finished. I was so proud of myself and I went inside to eat...thinking hmm I'll be rolling tomorrow.

Next day, I received a wonderful present on my windshield...BIRD POOP!...To say I was shocked would be an understatement. I smiled and stayed positive like I have been doing everyday but TODAY's own was exceptional. It's as if this birds perhaps one bird with a huge appetite had a fiesta or some sort of family reunion on my car. I was almost late for work and I couldn't stop by the car wash. I had to drive my multi-colored, poop-stained car to work. Insult + Injury mixed with superlative Rubbish.


SOLUTION

I am not upset o cause I just came up with a solution. If you have a better one, let me know but this is my own sha. I am going to do night vigil (- prayer) with my gun. I will guard my car overnight and shoot any bird that flies in my neighborhood. They are all guilty as far as I am concerned...

Just a Friend!

Shewa: What more do you want from me? What else can I do? Is it a crime to say NO? You don't have to insult me just because of everything that happened. When I choose abstinence, it should not bother you. After all it's my life and you have no say in it. Leave me alone.

Chinedu: Excuse me?

Shewa: I said it's my life and you have no say in it. You have no control over me. You are not my husband.

Chinedu: Oh really?

Shewa: Yes really! I'm out of here.

{Shewa attempts to leave and he grabs her car keys before she could get it. He stuffed it into his pocket.}

Shewa: What is the meaning of all this? C, I do not have time for your tantrums. Give me my keys so I can leave.

Chinedu: You are not going until I say you can. Every time we have an argument, you want to walk away. You never deal with the problem. Nothing gets resolved. You are going to seat down and we will talk about this.

Shewa: I have nothing to say to you

Chinedu: I have a whole lot to say to you. Please sit down.

Shewa: Give me my keys first. (he hands her the keys and she takes a seat)

Chinedu: I don't like us quarreling. You know I love you and I care about you. I don't like what you said earlier on. What do you mean by me not having control over you? Are you trying to say I'm not man enough to handle you?

Shewa: Who said anything about you being less than a man? C I am not your wife. I am not your girlfriend either. I do not appreciate the way you address me.

Chinedu: What's your problem? You want to act like you don't want me?

Shewa: (harshly) No I don't!

Chinedu: Oh really?

Shewa: yes really!

Chinedu: You don't want me? I didn't know that! I could recall you moaning my name the last time we did it.

Shewa: Did what? I am out of here!

Chinedu: Don't walk away from this! You know you want it.

Shewa: Get your hands off me nowww

Chinedu: and if I don't

Shewa: C leave me alone or I'll screa...

(he covers her mouth before she could complete the sentence).

To be continued...

I just Wonder

They met and became friends
She fell for him
and wanted more than friendship.
She became close to him
talked with him
spent a lot of time with him.
He liked her personality
and didn't mind being friends with a beautiful angel like her.
She invited him over
and showed him around the house
After a while, they sat
together on the couch
staring at nothing.
She looked at him
He looked at her
She moved close and kissed him
He couldn't resist so he responded
Slowly and gently, they had each other.

They saw each other more often
She became one he couldn't do without
He realized he had fallen for her.
He told all his friends about her.
One day, he picked a ring for her
After all they had known each other for a while
After all they were in love and they cared for each other
why not spend all their lives together?
He intended to surprise her
by asking for her hand in marriage.
On getting to her house
he saw her coming out of the house
hand in hand with another man
an older man to be precise.

She denied knowing him
and said he could have been the real estate agent
he was shocked and hurt.
He hurried away.
He couldn't eat or sleep
his life was completely shut
His world was falling apart
His best friend couldn't even console him
He sat at his work desk and cried
like a baby craving mama's milk.
She shut him out completely
She didn't call or return his calls
He wondered if he was just a fling
He wondered if he wasn't good enough
But he realized he was wrong
He was everything she wanted in a man
but she was already married to an older man.
She was married before she met and fell for him.
She never told him.

I cannot help but wonder. Do men still cry over women? With everything I see around me, I cannot help but ask if a love like this exists... I mean the kind that shatters a whole man's world when he sees his love is slipping away... DO real men cry over women they love?
