Overrated

Some things I feel are just overrated:

Designer clothing: hmmm Naija ppl love designer stuffs sha. Especially the guys...they must have a gushi belt to complete the outfit no matter what. But I feel like just because its designer doesnt really mean that the quality is better. Designer clothing does rip, however if you go into stores like tellos,rainbows and even forver21, then what you see is what you really get..hey!

but really--NOBODY CARES THAT YOU HAVE TRUE RELIGION JEANS...no one cares that you have 3 fendi purses or 10 pairs of chanel pumps....especially in America....and no one cares if you have an iphone a nokia e70 or a freakin blackberry!!.you know its really sick when ppl come into department stores ( in this case it was two naija women) asking for freakin true religion for their kids...like WOW are ur kids suppose to be better than the rest just because they have on true religion?


America/anywhere Abroad- The so called land of milk and honey is now dry. Milk ke?! Milk no dey again. Just because you are in America/UK or Canada, it doesnt mean you are better than those back home, it doesnt mean you are rich and it doesnt mean you will become a rapper and meet 50 cents and busta reems,it most certainly doesnt mean all ur problems are over, they hv just begun ohh and whats with some Nigerians who were born and raised in naija but feel as though they cant survive in Nigeria (even js for a visit) just because they are too used to America/UK or Canada? " Oh I cant eat the food", its too hot" " the water is dirty" before you came abroad nko? u survived shey? common gerrout!



Trends: ah ah, high waisted jeans today, tommorow na skinny leg. Trends are just a waste. Spending lots of money on trends are a waste too, thats what forever 21 is for. Its cheap, so when the trend is sooo "out" give it away or burn it...


Christmas- Why do we ( especially Americans) put so much emphasis on only buying presents for Christmas? Why do some parents buy their 4 kids, 10 presents each? what happened to donating and giving to those who are wayy less fortunate?


Holidays in Naij- What I mean by this is when ppl who are going to Nigeria from abroad go out and buy lots of expensive things to wear. I dont know if it is to show everyone that they are from somewhere abroad with a horrible yankee/jand/canadian accent to match or because they want to show the less fortunate how fortunate they are....


Revealing clothing- I mean common, leave something to the imagination, be a mystery or woreva...short skirts , other tight clothing and low cut tops are not cute. These types of clothing never fail u (especially at a club)if you are insecure and want to be looked at like a piece of meat...dont say i didnt warn u!


Clubs- I really dont like clubs. I went to one or maybe two and will prolly never go again. I guess I'm not really a club person. To me, clubbing is all about: men and women grinding their sweaty horny bodies against each other, people getting loud and drunk, hook ups/ one night stands....blah blah blah boring....anyone who can club every single weekend is a beast...na wa o



Cute guys- If you are cute and thats all...then what? berra have something to back that cuteness up....


blackberries/touch phones/ iphone- ahh its too much jare, bbbb pin,download this n that...that 1 na headache

Rappers- what do they really do anyway...I dont care if u call it " hating" I call it having an opinion, but seriously what do they do? hang around groupies, get on stage and spew nonsense hopping across the stage all outta breath, and go to clubs/parties, drop insane amounts of cash on everything from clothes,cars,houses and women...dont get me wrong there are some that dont do that, and there are some that run charities and what not, but this is what is portrayed in the media.


maybe you guys are askin, ah ah wetin b ha own? but hey i say what i feel jo!

case of the mondays and Naija on my mind

Its an ordinary monday... nothing special about it...good news is I'm in week 8 of a 15 week semester...HALLELUJAH!!!

I been day dreaming all day about moving out of state(mostly because my aunt is so annoying like I'm ready to go), if I could I would move out of this country entirely, I'm tired mehnnnn...bills no go kill me for here, abeg!

Tell me something my people, am I weird for not liking clubs? I feel the same things happen at clubs and the scene looks the same: girls in tight skimpy clothing, guys posted up on the wall ( they probably cant even dance sef) some drunk guy/girl actin a fool, and people grinding their nasty sweaty bodies against each other....ah ah which one be dat na? Imagine going to a club every weekend seeing that, wouldnt that bore somebody? I went to a club for the frist time a couple weeks back and it was just disappointing....they say dont knock it till you try it...I've tried it o! So wetin I wan come say again?!

I guess I'll stick to house parties and going to lounges...


On a lighter note, I'm still tryin to go to Naija in January( to Lagos and I consider this my first time) I want to know some happening places jare, which places to go to shop, eat, chill woreva anyone can think of would be fine...Also what should I pack if I'm goin in Jan? hows the weather around that time sef? Looking forward to some suggestions...

I'm checkin out jare, have a fantabulous week ahead..
