Home shills


I saw this tweet last week:
This vex money term annoys me mahn.
My own is, I don't see why you should ever leave your house when you are broke. Stay at home. Period
.

I couldn't agree more.
 
If you are one of those people who (when I was younger my mom described them as people with pins on their behinds) can't sit in one place, (now I call them wakajube - I didn't come up with it oh, its what I heard my friends call them, lol) you might just land yourself in a place you won't be happy about.
 
Especially this Christmas period (yeah it doesn't seem like there is any form of celebration, well for me sha I don't know about you) there would be so many events. And some people have * in Kanu Nwako's voice* 'determined in their heart to attend them all'.  I give the people in this category three gbosas while raising both my hands in the air.
 
I'm not saying that there aren't OBOs, (omo baba olowos aka rich children) if you can afford it, why not???? This 'sermon' is however for those who can't afford it. My dear take a seat or two and 'shill' in your house. Issnor by force for you to go every where in the name of turn up. Can I get an Amen? Lol.

Before you think I'm a hypocrite; that I'll say don't turn up (which I didn't say biko; I said its not everything you should go for especially when you are broke) and in reality be turning up.
 
Lemme just say this- I like my house, in fact the mere art of ironing my clothes is a struggle. Then you'll now make me wear make-up and perfume!! Hayyy!! You have to be one of my favorite people for me to do that. My boss even invited the entire staff for Christmas turn up, I was just like I got plans. (something foamy and cool was calling *smiles sheepishly*)
 
So if I have money or not, turning up has been more of compulsion than actual interest.

Anyways, for those that would still turn up after my shalaye; I say have the most amazing time after all life is too short.
P.S: Christmas is this Friday.
Ahhn TGIF toh sure!! *wink wink*


With love, theInspiredCutiee

The SS 4

If you’ve been following these series, you know they started off as a rant, but I decided to be inspiring, (as usual, hehe). If you haven’t (where have you been!) – you can read the Kick Off , Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 . I concluded part 3 saying watch out for myth 3… (still watch out!) ‘I thrive on purpose’, ‘I exist because of purpose’, so what then are the things I should be conscious of during this phase? Literally what lessons should I gather from my singleness? This requires a critical look at Genesis 2: 8-17: 1.       Place: God has a purpose for every place He puts me, He wants me to see, learn something before He can show me the next step. For example; He placed me in my family for a reason. Ironically many (myself inclusive) place ourselves and source for a person or people to validate this place we’ve placed ourselves. Even more sadly, many (myself inclusive) fight the place God has placed us. 2.      Pu...

Sunday Special

FEAR Where can I hide from this scary beast I'm so tired of attending these feasts I have been held bound by your lies  You told me I can't go beyond where I am My whole life I had dreams that would transform the world I saw myself sitting with Kings Dinning with Princes But In reality,all that was on my plate was hate I looked around and saw regret You made me feel comfortable, here on this dinning table Feeding me with stories of how I can't, How I wouldn't be able to! You told me they would laugh at me the moment I opened my mouth to speak That explains why everyone thinks I'm weak I got letters of Invitation from greatness You tore them right before my eyes You took me out once in a while to see your friends,mediocrity, status quo and Impossibility They seemed cool at the time Till I met faith Then I realised my whole life has been a deception All this while I was at the wrong reception Faith took me on a walk and showed me all the things I ...

List

As we countdown hours to the end of the year, in every corner there seem to be lists of things that happened this year; they maybe favorite or worsts, or top experiences or things that made history, sha lists. (you get my drift right?). I don't think I have sat down to draw up a 'list' well expect when I was applying for a job and they specifically said give 10 reasons why we should hire you. Yeah that happened. Lol. So I have been thinking, really thinking. A whole lot can happen in a year, emphasis on  'whole lot'. Except you write every detail of what happens daily and not miss a day (I wonder if there are people that are this deep) you are bound to forget some things. The movie 'INSIDE OUT' depicted how our mind works. (If you've seen it; you have an idea of what I'm talking about, if you've not I don't know what you are waiting for) There are too many things that have happened this year for me as an individual, in fact as a...
