Random thoughts

Ok so i haven't been here in a while and i am not going to apologize for that cuz i never promised to be faithful.so many things have happened over the past 6 months so i don't know where to begin.i will start anywhere.
I am back in school and it has been hectic.it's like all the teachers were given a memo to make classes tougher or something but i will survive. I lost a dear friend over the holidays.don't get me wrong he didn't die but out friendship did and it makes me sad cuz i thought he was one friend i could never lose. I guess i have to suck it up.oh yes i spoke to trey songz some weeks ago and i was in heaven for a few days.i always thought i would be cool when i meet a celebrity but i kinda screamed after talking to him cuz i just couldn't believe it.as i am writing this i still have him on my skype.i just can't believe i am considering deleting him cuz i don't have anything to say to him anymore but i won't.i chatted with him once too and i almost passed out cuz it was so unreal.i mean he wrote lol and all those other shorthands.yes i have an idea.i am going to call him for valentine's day and make him sing that 'lovefaces' song he is singing for his vals day tour. Typing froma phone is hurtful to your fingers(random i know). My friends are cool as usual:) although they piss me off sometimes like i do them ha! Finally for the first time in my life,i think i like a friend8-). Anyway,that's all i remember at the moment.till another time!!
Ciao amigos!
Happy vals day y'all!
Always remember that God loves you!:*

weddings


weddings weddings weddings. A day that all girls;okay maybe a few girls dream about. fo me all i care about for now is mu wedding dress..kapish.i guess when the time comes,i will care about the rest. i have attended a lot of weddings in my life because of food.yes you heard me right food,most especially the cake.i think they know a lot of people like the cake so the 'mise' it.oh well i have found a solution for my own wedding. that is not my point.
Weddings are usually really glamorous events depending on the families involved. i thank God that i have gone for mostly the beautiful ones.you know, when you go for a wedding of someone you don't really know, you won't know how much work was put into the wedding. well i didn't know weddings were serious work until my aunts and uncles started getting married one by one.OMG!!weddings are tough on everyone especially the bride. but for me i think its all about careful and 'on-time' planning.weddings here include the traditional ones as well. there are 2 weddings that stick out like sore thumbs in my memory and unfortunately, one of them was my uncle's trad wedding.
The trad wedding was set for 1pm and you will never believe the people that delayed us-the village people. we the family were on-time and we had to wait for the village people.that's my first problem.in my own wedding,they aren't invited. know that seems harsh but they are the greatest source of the problem.ok so this wedding was also in Anambra state but due to the terrible roads in these country,there was hold-up and we finally got there are 4pm.imagine that. as if that was not enough,he's wife people decided to insult us by saying we are not allowed to watch some of the wedding rights. fine no problem. you would not believe that we waited for 3 hours for the rites to finish.I'm telling you now n all honesty that i left my own uncles trad wedding without even seeping water. everyone that came with us were so pissed off that they left.my poor uncle by the way was also not allowed to see the rites.at his own wedding he didn't eat.they finally brought food when it was dark so we suggested that we take the food home and eat there. but no!the villagers could not wait. they behaved like they had never seen food before and it was embarrassing.we got back home at about 8pm that my mum,myself and my siblings.the wedding party came back around 10pm and trust the villagers,they returned for their food.i can't blame them anyway.they deserved it after all they had suffered.
Wedding number 2 was that of intern at my mum's office. i don't even know why my mum agreed to attend. the wedding was in kaduna-trad on Friday and white on Saturday. the girl told my mum that she had reserved a hotel room for us which meant my whole family.i decided to go with my mum unfortunately for me and fortunately for my mum. anyway we got to kaduna around 4pm and called the girl to come ad pick us. you would not believe what she came o pick us up with 'okada'.unfreakingbelievable. my mum and I were shocked. we just took a cab to the house which was crowded with guests. it rained so everyone had to enter the house. after all the festivities ended around 8pm,we decided it was time to go to bed. we asked about our hotel reservation and she told us o wait.we did, for 2 hours. imagine!!they packed us in a bus with all these Yoruba speaking old people and drove us back and forth kaduna till 12:30am.they took us a guest house,then to the guy's house and back.we just kept going back and forth.finally we got to a hotel which was nothing to write home about but we didn't care.all i wanted was to sleep.i woke up refreshed in the morning and that's when i saw how bad the hotel was.no food!!!!even common bread in a hotel!!!oh well.we bathed,dressed up and went to the reception venue.they were having a court wedding which was at 10am so we didn't see the need to go there. we got to the reception venue at 11am.honestly we left there t 4pm without seeing the wedding party. they hadn't done their court wedding by 4pm.what is going on???i have suffered all for weddings.i can't seem to understand.
All these things by God's grace can NEVER happen at my wedding NEVER!!!!!
So ladies,a piece of advice get a wedding planner and start very early.oh yes and don't invite too many people.it tends to cause problems.
ciao

April's fools day

well I do not know the history of this day but i have to say I love that day as long as the joke is not on me. in high school, our principal pranked us and he got us all real good. we had to hand it to him because it was perfect. i mean people were pissed and some sorrowful. am in college now so when April fool rolled around this year, i was hoping for a really good prank......on someone of course. so my friends and i were just chatting when it became 12am on April 1st. we decided we wanted to prank people. our first attempt was our friend M. she was afraid of being alone in a room and at that time she was asleep alone in the room. one of my friends painted her face white and smeared some red lipstick on her lips. she also covered herself with a cloth. she looked scary. we all filed into the room. R woke M up screaming that she was seeing someone in the room and the person wasn't moving. M was too sleepy to understand. despite R's screaming, M didn't get scared because she didn't understand what was happening. when she finally did, she knew it was us. Bad joke! we tried to prank E the same way so we just walked into her room and well....she didn't scream but she was a little spooked. we entered another friend's room and one of the girls screamed. it was all very disappointing to us because we hadn't gotten the kind of response we were looking for.
THEN came the master plan. our friend Y had a boyfriend B so we decided to call him and tell him that was throwing up and having stomach pains. we wanted him to panic and come to her room. so we called him,sounding very urgent and a little hysterical, telling him that his girlfriend was ill and needed him. at first he laughed because well it was April fool's day. we kept calling and sounding urgent with Y retching in the background. eventually he took us seriously and came to Y's dorm. As for Y she is a brilliant actress. we decided that when he came outside the dorm, we would shout 'April fool' together but Y decided to stretch the joke a little. she fell on the floor and was crying,'my tummy.my tummy'. people around started asking what the problem was. we told them she needed to go the clinic.some of them knew it was a joke, others didn't. there was a car packed there so we looked for the owner and asked him to take Y and B to the clinic. we thought Y would end there but oh no she didn't. she allowed the driver take her to the clinic. on the way, the rest of us called B and screamed ' April fool's'. we got him good. the person we got really really good was the driver/owner of the car. till today, he doesn't know that it was all a joke. poor guy.probably thought he was helping out. well we just couldn't tell him because he would have been really pissed and we had never spoken to him before that day.
I'm just happy that despite all the failed attempts, we finally got someone!!!
yay!!

Honesty

.....is the best policy. i know we all know this saying and its becoming cliché but it is still the truth. i know the truth hurts but it definitely sets you free.you do not have to carry the burden around for long.you let go of it and accept the consequences of your action. so here's my story
*no names of course*
OK so one night *Reyes decided to go out and have fun. the problem is she was kind of upset deep down inside. even though she tried to hide it, we all knew the truth. *Fa-chic went with her because she also wanted to have fun..i think. well she came back at 2am with the most hilarious story i have ever heard. well the story is not the point of my post but I'll just tell you this; it was freaking crazy!!! really crazy!!! am sure now you want to know the whole story but anyway....Reyes said some things she shouldn't have and am kinda glad she said it. it will help her in the long run. Fa-chic,MissP,PP and myself decided we had to something about Reyes crazy situation. we called Reyes's 'best friend',S and spoke to him about the situation. i agree we might have told him some embarrassing details but in the end we all just wanted to help. there was a particular line that was said by Fa-chic which made me flinch because i knew that if it were me, i wouldn't want S to know. i couldn't object because sadly it was the truth although it was highly embarrassing. well 4 days later, Reyes decided to ask what we told S. we had decided not to tell her anything so i said,'i don't remember' which was a lie. it hurt to lie but i couldn't remember everything of course except the most embarrassing details. she then proceeds to ask a particular question regarding what Fa-chic said that made me flinch the other day. i was silent and my silence was taken as a yes. she wanted to know who gave her away and i told her. being Reyes she decided to go and hate on Fa-chic who then proceeded to say that it was all of us(Fa-chic, MissP,PP and I) that said it. now here is where my problem arises. how do people say things together? is it that we chorused the statement? or we said it one after the other? am confused here..can someone help me out?
my second problem is Reyes is my friend..at least i think she is...even she's not she knows me. so why the heck would i lie about who made the embarrassing statement? what? am sacred that she'll beat me or kill me? she can't. all she can do is confront me and maybe never speak to me for some days. so why should that scare me into lying? another thing is i always...OK at least i try very hard to say things as they are. she should know me better. if it were me that said it, i would have told her it was me. funny part is MissP and PP agreed with Fa-chic that we said it together..wow!! i get we are friends and we have to stick together but what would it have taken for you to admit the truth and THEN stand by Fa-chic through whatever Reyes would say? i guess that was a lot harder...gotta take the easy way out you know.
This bugged me throughout my class period so i decided to tell them. I tried to redeem myself and everyone ignored me.....CLASSIC!
I guess I got a new post out of them.
So there you have it!

Crazy a** people

Yea I know the title kind of takes you by surprise but don't worry I'll explain.
A lot has been happening this past couple of days in my school. I'll start with the first group of crazy people; a few girls whose room is a few doors away. they put the 'row' in borrow. gosh! they ask for everything from cosmetics to clothes to toiletries to food. you name it. they even come to use our bathroom when they have theirs. even when you tell them no, they get angry and go only to come back another day. what kind of people are these? when we are fast asleep in my room with the door locked, they come knocking as if its their room. it's so freaking irritating and they won't stop no matter how much you tell them to. arrrggghhh!!! one of them came and borrowed 3 of our buckets and returned two. when we asked her why she said one of them was broken. girl get some sense! you are supposed to come to us and tell us that with apologies and not wait for us to come and ask you. oh did i mention that we always have to ask them to return our stuff before they do. because of their constant asking we even 'dash' them some things, yet they still come back for more. get a life will you! i can't keep talking about them if not i might implode!
the second crazy set of people are my school authorities. yes! i said that. imagine the fools, they increased our fees by 35% because the school is running in debt. ehm, who's fault is it? theirs. they employed a contractor to build our library and paid him in full and of course the man took off with all the money. an 'American' institution that doesn't keep records. where in the world does that happen? then a staff in the school has been siphoning money from the school without their knowledge. how would they know when they don't keep records. so now they are broke and they think we are the ones to finance their debt??? WE NO FIT!! well we decided to show them that we can't pay for their stupidity so we have been on a peaceful protest. now they know we are serious.let's see what will come out of it.
ciao!
