So my cousin has discovered my blog! I knew I should have made it private lmao. Sh!t.
Hes so sneaky, so he must hv known about it all this while and he never said anything. note to self: clear all blogger windows on computer!!
Neefemi, I guess this is a good time to let you know, that it was my cousin(i.oputa) that told me about your blog and that I should read it. It was kind of funny at first because of they way he mentioned it to me...then he went on to say I had some 'interesting stuff on there'. I'm thinking about all the things Ive writen on here but the more I think about it the more I'm going to get em-barazzed lmao. Oh well, no sweat right. Hes like another brother to me so its not like the things I've said on here I havent said them to him in person....but the way I'm panicking(secretly lol) you would have thought olu discovered it!!!
I know ur reading this!!! Its okay ehn, wait make u no worry,I will be doing my detective work on you... ur eye go neat :)
Semester is finally over with, now its time to write some essays for these schools. I got one BIG reality check on friday, went to my advisor and he told me I need to get my gpa higher or stay at my current school for another full semester ( mba!) so next semester its all work no play. All these schools I want to apply to are all top tier schools...which means they require like 3.7s and higher....
still not into the whole xmas thing, ill just go to midnight mass and go home same with new yrs...im not up for anything at all at alll
I'm off this, its been a long day my cousin turned 8 yesterday so we had a big dinner for her today...the moi moi,jellof rice,meat pie,african salad,plantain,turkey,chicken and cake was too mush haha...my cuzzo came with her oyinbo bf...one auntie goes "haa, u couldnt find a Nigerian boy, there plenty out there. If you get married to him dont invite me o! "

Just some thoughts
hmmm I dont really know what to post about.... No bad news, but no good news really
Exams are underway( congrats to anyone who just finished the semester, one more to go!)...just trying to plan my winter and spring break, and once again, I've changed everything around!! ughhh soo fustrating!! so now I'm going to London for winter break and Naija in the summer and I'll stay for a month or so ( summer school :-/ ) the rest of my summer will consist of classes and work...anyone know what to pack to naija if im going around june-ish? I was talking to a family friend of mine and she told me that when I go to naija, I will appreciate the US more because of the transportation and I will appreciate naija more because of the culture...i didnt really know what to make of that statement so i didnt say anything...we were also discussing how naija kids born here never really get the opportunity to go to Nigeria....anyway
for spring break I might just go to somewhere cold or I might just go do some work for HFH...dunno yet...everything is going pretty good for the most part, except me feeling like moving out of the country...lol...I always feel like that though so what else is new?!
Not really feeling the whole xmas spirit, I really wish I was spending xmas with a whole bunch of my family members ( most are all in Naija or UK,me sef ive lost track) Christmas in Naija would be out of this world; I can picture it now; food cookin, 1st cousins, distant cousins,aunties,uncles...the television on, everyone talking/discussing, and at the end of the night everyone would be all over the place, some sleeping on the couch, the floor or which ever spot they can find!! But now it seems like no one cares about stuff like that...they are off with their families doing their own thing... now I know what ppl mean when they say to enjoy the little time you have with family until you "grow up" (move out,get married and all that)hmm such is life...
I'm going to a naija xmas parry today ...hmm im sure all the parents will be saying something like this to my mother " i have a son oh" or " please oh, i want my son to stay connected to our culture, i will introduce him to ya daughtah"... its really funny sha... i get a kick out of it everytime...i dont blame them...
For any of you avid book readers,Authentic Beauty:The shaping of a set-apart young woman by Leslie Rudy is a good read...
I just found out that a boy I went to school with ( my freshman yr of college) just died, the happiest, funniest,cutest Bahamian guy you could ever meet. But he was battling his own demons...why are ppl like that the most miserable?
wishin u a wonderful weekend..& study hard for finals!

More realizations and I truly need a resolution!
update* Olu and I talk sometimes ( he always has something sexual to say, maybe hes trying to convince me to sleep with him which will never happen, and when he starts his sex talk he gets disconnected) and when we do, he tries to act like our whole 'break up' was my fault when hes the one that was acting some how/strange n stupid, he didnt even believe that my friend passed away when I was explaining to him why I havent called him ( so he says) , hes so selfish, always putting what he wants first, and hes never patient. He says hes not used to being patient for what he wants, I told him sorry that the other girls you've dated never told you 'no' or never expected you to be patient. Mehnnnn i no fit stand a guy wey dey act like small pikin, that gets on my NERVES. Well recently I havent talked to him. I'm just sick of his drama, his wahala is just too mush...and in his head he still thought we were getting back together, he even expected me to come to his place for Thanksgiving, ha family no dey again? Hes crazy to think after all that happened I would hop on a greyhound bus to go see him on Thanksgiving ( of all days) and then tell my mother that im going whia? so that she can roast me shey? I think not.I played along with him n whatnot but I'm done, I'm not into guys like him anymore...I thought he was different--but hes in the same category of guys I run from and will continue to run from!
What is it with some people mehnnn?
They say they are Christians or whatever yet they still feel its ok to have premarital sex ( im not judging, but this what Ive observed i mean we all sin, but this one is serious o), why cant people see a good thing for what it is and appreciate it? Why do people have to defile/corrupt things then complain that it is spoiled? Olu claims that his parents taught him about Christianity, and he says hes a Christian, YET he says before he gets married he has to try some 'stuff' with his wife -to -be,umm how does that work? what the * fill in the blank* is that? (see im trying to kick my swearing habit :) Then he says if I lost my vcard at 16, he would have thought I was a slut YET he lost his at 16 (with an older girl!) I can do better than him, I dont see how his view of sex will benefit him in the future, but as long as I'm not in that picture than I'm more than okay, I'm GOOD.
On a much light note, the semester is nearly over, and I decided to do volunteer work ( for xmas/winter break) in Nigeria and do work for Habitat for Humanity for spring break. I hope everything works its self out ( still need to get a visa, yea kinda late but hey..)
What I'm looking forward to ( no particular order):
1. My family friend's graduation
2. A convention in Dallas
3 Indiana in the summer time
4. Fall '10 in philly/la/or Miami
5. A full head of curly hair
6.Xmas '10
7. Four 'white' weddings to attend (all for relatives too!)
8.Buying a car
9. A Nigeria, that future generations will be proud of
10. Cutting people off and out of my life, you ppl should try it, quite liberating really...especially when those people bring you down instead of lifting you up...
New Year resolution:
Live to my highest potential, be the young woman God has called me to be.
...I was at the bookstore today and I saw a magazine ( people) and it was like a yearbook or something on the years 2000-2009. It really hit me --we are at the end of a decade.
kinda scary...it has me feeling like I did when I was 9 back in 1999 ...

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..
