Hmmm…

My people, na so I see my celebrity crushes…

Na so I stand at attention

Na so my mouth no gree move

Na so I just dey look

Chai!

My brain no even boot to take picture…

Na so I dull!


Ha-ha!
I wrote this poem on the spur of writing this post.
I should actually give you the gist…


Scene 1

I needed to use the ATM, so, I decided to go the nearest one around my office, I said to myself ‘this won’t take time, no need to carry phone’, that’s how I left my phone in the office oh.

I got to the ATM, there were a couple of people, so I joined the queue, that’s how a black jeep rolled into the parking lot.

Enter Nathaniel Bassey…

I opened my eyes with surprise, (if you read my posts, you know Nathaniel is BAE!) and began to wonder why no one was screaming and acting all giddy.

‘Is the ATM working’ he asked. ME!!! He spoke to ME!!! I couldn’t even answer I just shook my head because I was too mesmerised.

God bless you, I am your number one fan, please place your hand on my head, I love you… These were the things I wanted to say but my mouth and brain weren’t just cooperating.

Sigh…

And then he walked away.

That’s how I didn’t speak to him, or even make a memory of the day with a picture. Sigh.

At least I have a blog, I’ll write it here. Lol.


Scene 2

TyBello was speaking at an event I attended.

It was a small event, yes, the cream-de-la-crème

I said to myself ‘I’ll make sure I ask a question, I’ll make sure I have a chat with her, I’ll make sure she notices me’…

In the twinkle of an eye, she was done with her session.

She didn’t ask for questions, she just dropped mic and signaled to her team – they needed to move.

I was still in shock; I literally couldn’t move.

Then my siblings say, ‘let’s go take picture with her’

I replied ‘what if she gives us ela? Plus, I am shy jor’

They went, took the picture, and she was gone.

Sigh…again…



That’s how I dulled two times, if only I was bold!

Well, this post is to inspire you; don’t be shy, be bold!

Next time, I won’t dull!

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 ...

The SS 4

By
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...

List

By
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...
