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

Short story type of day

I wrote this while I was in church (please don't judge me , it just popped in my mind and I began to write) She felt something slowly tickle her face, she ignored it the first and second time, then it began to move more rapidly than before. She woke up in a startle, disoriented and wondered what could have been causing this, it felt like it was on her face, she touched her face and it was wet, 'what's this?' she asked herself because it was dark. She quickly jumped up and flicked the switch on.. She screamed when she saw it was blood! The small dark spot on her pillow and on her nightie (when she sat up) were both evidence that she was bleeding from her nose. 'No, no not again' she cried. 'This can't be happening again' she said! Then she quickly remembered she was to tilt her head up whenever her nose began to bleed, she tilted her head and waited a couple of minutes but it didn't stop. She began to panic because she was loosin...

Lauren Daigle

Lauren Daigle is a contemporary christian music singer. I absolutely love her voice. She speaks to your soul and situation.  Her music is exceptional; but my favorite two are: How Can It Be and Trust In You. The first time I heard 'How Can It Be' I was in tears.. Sigh.. Like I said she speaks to your situation. That moment of my life I felt inadequate of God's love and then I heard this song.  Just take a moment to look at the lyrics:  http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/laurendaigle/howcanitbe.html 'Trust in you' is nothing short of her amazing voice, again the lyrics blow me away. The chorus is always a reminder: When You don’t move the mountains I’m needing You to move When You don’t part the waters I wish I could walk through When You don’t give the answers as I cry out to You I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You! I always ask myself; can I still trust God when He doesn't give me the answers I want? Can I still be genuinely gra...

The Halo Effect

Are you exhibiting the halo effect? Do you buy products because of the celebrity representing it? Or stay in a relationship that is wrong because of one good quality? We are all attracted to people all the time. What attracts us to others? And what attracts you? When you meet someone for the first time you draw a conclusion about them, subconsciously you decide whether you like them or not. BUT is it possible that one trait or aspect of one's character can influence your perception about them? Honestly, I judge a person's character based on their physical appearance, its a quick judgment that is very likely inaccurate. The good thing is that once I begin to have a conversation, I realize there's more to the person than just physical looks. (Well that's for those that are actually more than their looks). The halo effect can cloud our judgment even when we know about it. When one good quality spills its appeal unto other elements of a per...
