Gradual reveal of my Life's experiences....

So I am listening to my favorite boy group of all time ‘West life’; I wonder what ever happened to them and what led to their break-up.. I so loved Bryan (the lead singer of the group). In my teenage days i wished I could be free the way they were. Watching their song videos sometimes brought tears to my eyes because I wondered how life was going to be for me when I was older. Growing up in an environment where I felt silence was a form of peace making, I spoke less and kept more to myself. Not to forget that I loved to read novels. Novels were just the escape from reality and it took me to a realm where I felt peaceful and happy or sad..ie if the characters were good or emotional. I was a huge fan of Daniele Steel and Sidney Sheldon. Gosh; where has my love for books gone? Truthfully, I wouldn’t say I had the most wonderful childhood even though my parents were among the middle class (if I may say so). My dad had his own house so yes I classify us as a middle class family. I am just glad to be writing this and I am thankful to God for where he has brought me to. Recounting my life. I finished from Queen’s College in 2000, got admission into Unilag and finished in 2006, I got an intern job after my University days just to keep me busy and after my youth service, I got a job in a radio station. I currently still work in that radio station. I am hardworking, I know that, even if no one tells me. My MD actually called me to acknowledge my hard work and that day was just the best day of my life as at that time (2010). I got married in 2011. I wouldn’t say I knew him that much, but he made me feel important and I could tell him anything. Basically I was just comfortable with him. Before I met my husband, i was coming out of a heart broken relationship that took a year to heal but I am glad that things happened the way they did. God has a way of catching you when you fall or when you feel your life isn’t just worth it. (Will let you guys into that world some other time). Something else, when I turned 25years, I said to myself ‘you have to start thinking of settling down’. My mum didn’t help matters. She was always on my case (will be unleashing this gradually). Listening to beautiful love songs can make you believe that love is a perfect thing but truly, love is accepting the other’s partner’s mistake and saying you can make them better. I am glad my husband walked into my life when he did.

Fuel Scarcity Increase

Wooow..it funny how Nigerian government can make decisions overnight and just implement it. Nigeria is getting harder for a lot of people. the poor are getting poorer, but all we can do is accept it and wait for the change promised to be REAL. I was angry on my way to work this morning. i almost got into a fight with a bus conductor, not because of the hike in the transportation increase due to the 145 naira per litre but because the conductor was so insolent with his passengers acting like its only him the suffer ring is affecting How many of us got increase in salaries and do some of our employers really care. Well, after listening to Ibe Kachukwu (Minister of Petroleum), i believe Nigeria can be better with this subsidy removal some time in the future (all the kabals are gradually being uprooted). Maybe some day i may be an independent importer of PMS (hehehehe) Back to the real reason this blog was created. i write about myself and maybe when the time is right, i may decide to go into entertainment gossio or whatever i decide. I believe i will have mentioned in some of my previous post that i am on a weight loss process and my exercising and dieting is paying off. I am so glad that my hubby has just been all over me as in eeh (which woman wont like that after 2 kids). Today was good at work. Had internet issues and couldnt received most of my jobs but its all good. Will have to find my way home since hubby wont come and pick me. Hubby's birthday is almost here.. So its time to find my way home.

Money Changes People....(Never forget that money is a spirit and will never be enough)

Another day…glad for life. Woke up as usual and went for my Jog. Drove my son to school and packed his lunch box. Glad I have a nanny that is really helpful….. Hurray… So glad the queues are gradually disappearing. What a relief; Baba God thank you oooooo… so on my way to work I was pondering on how my yesterday went. There is a lot to be thankful for and will not let any person bring me down with his/ her words To get to the matter, let me even start from the genesis. Last week Friday, I received a call from a client asking for airtime to promote his music. As innocent and kind hearted that I am, I advised him that he wont get the leverage that he wants by just coming on air once and directed him to a certain OAP. the said OAP was asking for an outrageous sum (over 250k) to promote just a single for an upcoming artist. I was devastated. Well I informed the artist and he pleaded that he didn’t have such amount. Well to cut long story short, the artist decided to pay for a live appearance. I informed the said OAP of the development so that he can know that they are desperate but my dear, na so I put myself for insult to the extent that he implied that I am poverty stricken (my reply to him is thus, since ‘you are living in affluence and ‘Dangote himself’, he should keep it up; as for me, I am comfortable with myself and what God is doing for me). He started saying that the song wasn’t good and bla bla bla bla … and that it should go through the right channel (forgetting that he already replied me that the song was good and he would take them once the money was paid). I am just glad I have never asked this imbecile for 1 naira. This life is really funny oh. I learnt something yesterday sha, that you never really know who your friends are until money is involved. Well I am glad for life and where I am cos I know I have a purpose on earth. Aside what happened above, I had quite a busy day and interesting one as well. Glad for my new department. (O Lord, whatever forces in my company that are stepping and wanting to sack/ bring people down. oh God I proclaim downfall for them. Your word says that you have come to give us peace and peace shall be ours). Amen

Patience....(learn from others mistakes)

Its funny how easy one will think that starting a blog is one easy thing. Actually it isn’t at all. The likes of Linda ikeji are trying because sometimes the words to write down or use can sometimes just disappear from one’s head. So the trending topic now is Tiwa Savage and her husband. For goodness sakes; everyone should just mind their business. Whose business is it if Tiwa never asked her husband if he got hungry or Tee Bliss didn’t pay the hospital bills. I just hope they resolve it and be happy. Ladies out there, I hope you all are learning from Tiwa’s mistake. She said she was warned when she was about to say ‘I do’ but shoved it aside. Relationships and marriage are two different things. Back to the matter….. My daughter can walk! Walk! Walk! Walk! Walk! (In Rihanna’s voice). I am so excited at almost 10 months. She just wows me watching her grow. As little as she is, she fights with her brother (which amazes me). I am so glad, thankful, can’t even express the joy motherhood brings and I give the almighty God praises for his blessings. My days have been hectic, shuttling from a job I close by 8pm (I resume at 11am so I get my sleep back). To facing the annoying evening traffic on my way home. But all the same, I can say now that I am glad to be where I am now. So today, I woke up at 5.45am, thanks to Jazz’s cry. I reluctantly got up and had to go make her formulae. She finished the 150ml and went right back to sleep giving me the opportunity to get ready to go jogging. My son woke up almost immediately Jazz slept off sand rushed to the T.V (I need help on how to stop him from this TV addiction). KJ (my son) didn’t go to school because he isn’t feeling so well Fast forward….i got back from my jog and made breakfast. So I got ready for work. I decided to come in earlier because of the long holiday which led to most campaigns pending; I needed to be certain that all was done. That was my priority when I got to the office and my ever efficient team were on it already. So it’s almost time to head home and I am glad for a fruitful day hoping that all the clients that called when send in the money. Hehehehe I am currently on a fruit diet. I am trying to challenge myself for one week to depend on only fruits and nothing else. Just hoping I survive through it.
