If i really wanted to talk about it...

I'd say that I'm really upset, hurt and surprised by actions taken today
...but I won't..

I'd say that it might be better for you if you could look inward and see what you're doing wrong
...but I won't...

I'd say that you're making a lot of mistakes in succession
...but I won't...

I'd say much much more...
But I don't really want to talk about it

In the motherland

So i have been in Nigeria for over a week... eaten more food than should be legal... I really dont want to get anyone jealous but....
Ugba, point and kill fish, suya, ewedu soup with amala, roasted yam, roasted corn, akamu, peanuts and garri(lol), vegetable soup, okro soup, chicken suya, mr biggs, tantalizers... to mention a few...

Clubbed soo much I can actually count the number 0f days Ive slept home...
coliseum, auto lounge, page nightclub, metro park, insomnia, aqua 27, the grotto...

To Eleko beach and ate the hugest prawns u could ever imagine... prawns and orange vodka.. best combination EVER!!!

sleeping in a beachhouse where u can hear the waves... HEAVEN!!!

Will be back to update more... LOVe u guys...

New Jewellry

I have had such a hectic week with school... one thing due after the other... I've been working on no sleep, 5 hour energy drinks and caffeine.
Things are winding down... though I still have some exams coming up... it shouldnt be as bad for the next few weeks
...plus I have my trip to Nigeria to look forward to...

Having said that, after a women studies exam today, I was at the right place at the time.

At a not-so-obvious store around my area, I found a ring I've been looking for FOR-MONTHS!!!

Discounted from over $200, I got this knuckle ring for ONLY $50!!!
I snatched it up so fast I think the salesgirl wished she'd priced it for twice as much.. the odd thing is I would have paid that.

Pardon the chipped polish... when one has no time to sleep.. reapplying polish is usually the least of ones worries

I also got these turquoise really cute earrings... and I never wear earrings other than my swarovski studs.

So my total count of earrings =2
terrible right?

I HAVE GREATTT NEWSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I'M GOING ON A VACATION IN THREE WEEKS!!!
... to NIGERIA!!!!!!!!!!

Words can't express how excited I am... cos this is actually actually actually going to happen...
the best part of it is a couple of my friends from Canada are going with me.. so its going to be like 2008 England all over again(6 of us went on a 3 or so week vacation about the same time last year)

I'm 'stutteringly' excited... chei
suya for 3 weeks
point and kill fish for 3 weeks
no sleepless nights studying for chemistry labs and writing english explications for 3 weeks
changing my hair every 4 days (just cos I can) for 3 weeks
speaking broken english in my dreams for 3 weeks
showing my sexier belly and wearing bikinis in the places that will permit me for 3 weeks
going to church on a sunday for that naija praise and worship that you simply cant get anywhere else... for 3 weeks
clubbing from midnight till 6am for 5 days out of the week... for 3 weeks
catching up with old friends... wearing flip flops and sunglasses... drinking star beer and gordon spark... for 3 weeks
not using an alarm or the snooze button for 3 weeks
did i mention SUYA for 3 weeks...

I'm also going to reach Ghana for a few days as 2 of my closest friends are on an extended vacation there... and if time permits I'll go see my other friend in Angola as well...
...oh the great life of the african vacationer..

I really should be studying as I have a chemistry lab to do in a few hours... but this is just too exciting not to share IMMEDIATELY!!!

I can already see myself walking to the airport, checking in my bags, getting on the plane... chai my soul is no longer in this CANADA again oh... na only body remain...

Having said that...
All of u that will remain in the European and North American freezers you find yourself in over those 3 weeks.. accept my condolences i mean apologies in advance
...Feel free to jealous me...

oh and I realize it's april fools day... yay! prank time!!!

You might think I'm weird

But I REALLY REALLY REALLY want a white mongolian lamb fur vest... its obnoxiously pretty... and slightly hideous... but I am confident it will make me do better in my Literature paper due next month...


Sorry this post was meant for 'cranberry ocean'... but I'll just leave it up here and just add that my friends delivery wasn't traumatic for either of us... it was beautiful and amazing and shes doing great... as is her son. Thanks for all the fantastic messages and comments and all that good stuff... babies make the world a much more beautiful place to live in i tell u...

ps. if you have any nieces you want to hook him up with... please make inquiries asap... as his dance card is filling up very fast... drop me a line stating ur intentions and I'll get back to you on my percentage...

Just so you know... He can already focus his eyes, has great skin, and smiles with his eyes a la tyra banks modelling instructions.

His ears perk up whenever any science shows are on tv.. he therefore might become a doctor or pharmacist.. and he doesnt cry when we pray(so he is VERY VERY godly and spiritual)...

Feel free to ask any specific questions about baby boy... I will answer them but only apply if the girl in question is his age or just slightly older.. no sugar mamas(U HEAR VERA?! lol)..

INQUIRE WITHIN!

He's here... safe and sound

All 9 pounds of him

Beautiful, Handsome, Gorgeous, Lovely do not suffice as descriptions... He is an amazing child... born of love, in love... and out of love.

He just smiles and coos... and eats and sleeps
I am in love with his little fingers and his little toes and his long lashes and tiny mouth

...I'm gunning for godmother...

...Birth...

Tomorrow I am going in to experience womanhood... motherhood...

My friend is having a baby... and I'm to be in the delivery room
...to hold her hand...

I have never done this...

I'll either come out slightly experienced... or completely traumatized.
God help us both...
and her unborn child.
