BGLH Badge

Na wa o!!

Mehn! it was a beautiful day on the 18th of November, i went to NIIT class, saw a friend then went to French class, then on ma way home from around 8pm, ma beautiful day went sour. I was walking by the side of the road with my friend and the this car drives up slowly beside me, a guy brings half of his body out the window and drags ma bag off ma shoulder after hitting my hand with his gun to halt my struggling and they zoom off. i was stunned 'cos all this happened in like 10 seconds..i dint feel good at all 'cos that bag contained a lot of things. This happened in Zone 4, Abuja on the narrow road by PHCN, there are no street lights there.
They definitely hit a Jackpot...ID cards, ATM cards, phones, make-up not less dan 20k in all, gold jewelry i was planning to change at Wuse Market (all hail the queen of procrastination), ma class notes, diary, flash drives, camera, memory cards (with all my grad pics).. and money (luckily i had made most of the payments i needed t)..u name it they were all in dat bag.My friend gave me cash to bus home..but i v gotten over the loss and yesterday i retrieved ma lines and blocked ma ATMs. 
In everything give thanks, i do, coulda been worse, i coulda been shot, on top bag; i know God will replace all i lost with even better things. My mum sed its 'cos December is around the corner, thieves are now more desperate, 'bout two weeks ago my friends phone was stolen from her bag while we were at the bus stop about to go to the redemption camp in Keffi; guess we gotta be more careful b4 they steal us in their desperation. I'm in a better mood now and getting over the theft of ma bag and the items in it, the most painful was my diary and memory cards with my pics funny enough. God dey...i have learnt from this experience, would never have guessed Abuja would be the place for me t get robbed and in the streets for that matter.

The Environment

Been attending this international conference on renewable energy and it's extremely insightful and i've actually come to c that we have brains in this country (Nigeria) and lots of ideas our main issue is implementation of these ideas plus we are extremely blessed in this country and can actually be giants in every term of the word if only people would suppress their greed and aim of acquiring wealth and think of one another for a change...it doesn't v to be the government as we always say the government is made up of people like u and me...if there were total darkness on a street and u alone put a lamp in front of ur building before long people will c the light and emulate..we shouldn't always wait for the govt...there's so much more i'v gained from this conference i'd like to share but as u know m a lazy blogger though in due time l post it..also we have to start thinking bout our environment,climatic change,greenhouse gases,etc...until we let go of our selfish desires and wealth accruement for family there will not be positive movement....to be cnt..oh plus i took this time to figure out ma temperament..strenghts/weaknesses so i can work on it...i'm a sanphleg..so m making up for ma weakness by concentrating on ma strengths and trying to discipline myself in areas i can..it think the world would also be a better place if we all take time to study ourselves figure out our temperaments and learn how to work on it to help better relation with other temperaments.

Friends..u'll fall in2 1 category

SINGLE FRIENDS
Love is like a butterfly, d more u chase it, the more it eludes u. But if u just let it fly it will come to u when u least expect it. Love can make u happy but often it hurts, but love is only special when u give it to someone who is really worth it; so take ur time & choose d best.
NOT SO SINGLE
Love is not about becoming somebody else's perfect person it's 'bout finding somone who helps u become d best pron u can be
PLAYBOY/GIRL TYPE
Never say i love u if u don't care Never talk 'bout feeling if they aren't there Never touch a life if u mean 2 break a heart Never look in the eye when all u do is lie The cruelest thing guy can do to a girl is to let her fall in love when he doesn't intend to catch her & dis works both ways
ENGAGED
The true measure of compatibility is not the years spent together but how good u are 4 each other
MARRIED
Love ain't 'bout it's ur fault but i'm sorry not where r u but i'm right here not how could u but i understand not i wish u were but i'm thankful u are
HEARTBROKEN
Heartbreaks last as long as u want & cut as deep as u allow them to go, the challenge is not how to survive hem but to learn from them
NAIVE
How 2 be in love; Be consistent but not too persistent Share & never be unfair Understand & try nt to demand u'll surely get hurt but never keep d pain
POSSESIVE
It breaks ur heart to see d 1 u love happy with someone else but its more painful to know that the 1 u love is unhappy with u (Totally tru i gotta say)
AFRAID TO CONFESS
Love hurts when u break up with sm1. It hurts even more when some1 breaks up wt u. But love hurts d most when d person u love has no idea how u feel about him or her...
STILL HOLDING ON
A sad thing 'bot life is when u meet some1 & fall in love, only to find out in the end it was never meant to be & dat u have wasted years on some1 who wasn't worth it. If that person doesn't worth it now, he/she won't be any more worth it year or 10yrs frm now
ALL Y'ALL + MOI
My wish 4 u and 4 me is a man/woman whose love is;
Honest,mature,strong,protective,encouraging,neverchanging,rewarding & unselfish....
Friendship fails when communication is unclear, truth is violated, integrity forsaken, time uninvested, risks not taken,control is d goal, trust is broken, self-interest is d rule, manipulation is allowed & God is ignored...........
TBC.....................

Life Lines

Humming in ma head..Micheal's man in the mirror i'm writing the lines
  • When u lose, don't lose the lesson
  • Take into account that great love & achievements involve great risk
  • Respect yourself, others, and take responsibility for your actions
  • Learn the rules so u know how to break them properly so true
  • Don't let a little dispute injure a great relationship (hmm...i'll try)
  • When u realize u've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it
  • Remember, not getting wht you want sometims is a good thing(yh i remember my unanwsered prayers..lol)
  • Spend some time alone everyday (i do that a lot... i think)
  • Open ur arms to change but don't let go of ur values
  • Remember, silence is sometimes the best answer (i totally love silence)
  • Live a good, honourable life, then when u get older & think back, u'll be able to enjoy it a 2nd time
  • A loving atmosphere in ur hme is d foundation of life
  • Sare ur knowledge it's d way to achieve immortality
  • In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with current situation, dnt bring up d past (dis is kinda hard for me and i think most people but m making a conscious effort towards practising it)
  • Be gentle with the earth
  • Once a year go someplace u've never been
  • Approach love & cooking with reckless abandon
  • Judge ur success by what u had to give up to get it
  • Remember dat d best relationship is on in which ur love 4 each other surpasses ur need 4 each other
  • Avoid bad habits (dis is so much easier said than done)
  • Always listen to good advice
  • Be alert always, then wait perhaps what u're looking for will find u (i wonder if dis works tho)
  • Always be ready 4 surprises in life (i think i am it's been a while anything caught me off guard)
  • Always look at where u're going
  • Be determined in achieving ur goals (i try o keep ma star player motivated..wink*)
  • Don't let situatins confuse u (i try)
  • Don't stop ur curiousity, Dont't stop learning (yh ignorance is costs so much more)
  • Always comb ur hair (y is dis even on the list i can totally survive wtht combing ma hair)
& most of all SMILE...

Micheal Jackson..King of Pop(Legend)

1958 - 2009
So many thots been running in ma head all day to blog...and this had to come first Micheal Jackson is dead at 50yrs...when i think about it i think he could have done more...made a come-back but all dat rests with him in the grave..may he R.I.P...despite all the accusations leveled against him(true or not) and his life in general it is undeniable that he mad a very clear mark in music,his print boldly shows in the sand of time..my personal favorite album was thriller...loved it so much..liked Bad too and some others..how did i even come about knowing Micheal...my dad..yh thats the answer i grew up hearing a lot of Micheal songs,lionel richie,bob marley,etc..to name a few..ma dad used to be a DJ so we had the turntables back den and the big discs i remember we had Mariah Carey's Honey disc..lol..so funny how technology has simplified all these things..back to Michael then..no matter the color of his skin and the reason he gave for changing it i love his music till date therefore i still consider him without hesitation the King of Pop..people are still gonna hate on him and some are still gonna be die hard fans..i dnt think i fall into any category but he will definetly live on for decades to come through his songs...loved his videos(Remember the time,black or white,thriller,et), dance moves, creativity in general....funny how much love u can get when u dead and cant apprec8 it...all in all...the world of music and dancing mourn u Michael..R.I.P.
Apprec8 what u have, it may not be dere forever and all it may need to stay may be ur Appreciation of its existence.Kapish.

Life in brief

Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how many pple call u and its not about who u've dated are dating, or haven't dated at all. It isn't about who u've kissed, what sport u play or which guy/girl likes you. It's not about ur shoe or ur hair or the color of ur skin or where you live or go to school. In fact it's not about grades, money, clothes or colleges that will accept you or not. Life isn't about if you lots of friends or if you are alone and its not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life isn't just about. But life is about who you love and who you hurt. Its about how you feel about yourself. It's about sticking up for ur friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It's about what u say and what you mean. It's about seeing people for what they are and not what they have. Most of all it's about using your life to touch someone else's in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise; These choices are what life's about Author:unknown

heart break exounded...me..sunset

Hypocrisy or Sincerity

O.k....here's wat happened ma cousin got pregnant yeah pregnant...and she's not yet married which on theNigerian scene is a total catastrophe....can't blame them or can i...the thing is she's 29 yrs old so i really dont see wat they yapping about i believe she's old enough to take responsibility for her actions without anybody stressing her, thats another thing, she decided to keep the baby and that jjust caused anoda drama in the house...imagine the so-called"christians" in the house want her to get an abortion ...i dont get which sin is greater in their books fornication or murder...then again guess its the same in their books...arrgh almost went crazy yesterday when she told me they wanted her to still g ahead and get rid of the baby after she'd told 'em she wanted to keep the baby..i mean it just makes sense she's old enuf..like duh almst 30...her juniors and mates have like 2 or 3 running around..plus men are scarce these days not to talk of good ones i just dnt get y they are all against her having her kid and they all trying to stress her...i mean are they tryna tell me 2wrongs=right...she's trying to make the best of the situation..and i'm really proud of her 'cos if i were in her shoes i'd be devastated confused,etc to say the least and i'll totally understand ma parents yelling at me cos m still young regardless if ma mates have kids and i have my whole life ahead of me..wouldnt just make much sense having a kid now.....reminds of when one of ma aunts got pregnant in school and decided to keep the baby and dint tell no one bout it till she was like 8 mnths gone..totally understand now 'cos they'd have either pressured her into getting rid of the baby or made her life hell..she gave birth to her kid..finished school and is working....apart from it being murder sef dnt tink ppl look at the risks enough..every1 just wants to save face and act dignified even when the case is totally opposite...like she could die in the process from excess bleeding or smtn like that,she could destroy her womb,etc....i believe in the long run keeping the baby makes more sense and if u find a man that cant deal with ur baby in the long run he's not worth it and doesnt really love you like he says....

The Over-Reactor

This is the boss who doesn't seem to be happy unless everyone's in panic mode. Everything is over-inflated. It's not an issue, its a problem. Its not a problem its a crisis; its not a crisis its the end of the world. This boss can often be quite fun to work with when things are going well, but the moment things go wrong, the old stress-o-meter spikes big time. The most common mistake people make while trying to deal with their over-reacting bosses is to try and placate them- to soothe them and reassure them that everything will be okay.This approach usually backfires, as bosses will now feel compelled to argue in support of their position. The rant escalates, along with your stress. The best approach to take with an over-reacting boss is an agree-echo-resolve technique. You agree with his(her) assessment of the situation, echo his concern and introduce a possible solution. Be careful you dont come across as mocking your boss but do make a point to absolutely support his(her) concern. One of the reasons that the Over-reactor behaves that way is because he(she) thinks overreacting is the only way to get people to take action. The more he(she) sees that you are as committed as he is, the less he(she) will rant in future........Good luck The Guardian June 5,2009-pg29

CruELLa dE ViL

How evil can people get...forget josef fritz 4 a while..lets go to bosses ..just because u at the top now does that mean u should treat every1 under u like u were never under people..i dont get how people think ma boss...whew!!i swear she can't move forward if she keeps up with her nasty human relations.i wasn't feeling fyn for a week so couldn't go to work and when i call her to inform her all she can say is make sure u bring ur excuse duy from the doctor..EXCUSE ME for taking my health seriously..then again i went to the office to get ma PC and submit ma excuse duty and she couldn't ask if i was o.k for work all she says is are u @ wiork today..nawa o...mchew!!then she sed we have to review my work b4 she can sign ma PC and she found two outsanding jobs from wen i wasnt @ work and she says i gotta do it b4 she can sign WTF!! bitch ..i told her i aint well and i aint doin notin ur fuckin company hasnt even payd me for 2 months....anyways she signs d stuff and i do ma thing...monday till i saw her cruella face again...biatch... Episode 2 hmm..yh ma boss was at it again..i applied on the 8th of June for a 4day leave to apply for my transcript and attend convocation ...she sed nothing about it thru-out that week...i came to work on the 15th which was when i was supposed to go on leave then she's acting all holier than thou like she dint see that memo on her table thruout last week...my mind was alrdy made up that nothin was stoppin me frm goin to lag so i totally wasnt buyn her bullshit...i stayd at work for a while then went to make ma hair which took like the rest of the day ..came back to the office wen i was done to get ma bags and she's all up in ma face like i went to make ma hair durin office hours..in my mind m like bitch if u'd just signed ma leave form we wouldnt be having this argument i dint bother informing her that i hadnt even planned to come for work that day..she just kept blabbing how i'l receive a formal note on this from her the next day and bla bla bla...psshh!! madam i aint comin to work tomorrow...lol..i was totally roflmao in ma head and just kept ma cool while she blabbed which is her hobby by the way...well well to cut the very long story short i went for ma vacation in lag and had loads of fun....got back to work early moday morning and continued ma duties as usual..tho she wrote a memo to the HR that i had left wtht permission but mehn dint give 2 bout that,,,cnt wait to be outta here by the end of the month.. Its not healthy to work in an environment where u are constantly frustrated,put down and oppressed to say the least i'd rada earn minimum wage and be happy with ma job, happy at work,etc not like what i see by the people in the marketing & sales dept. of dis institute..Hell NO!!! l pass on the 100grand....and be happy

Episode 3

Ma boss has a cold and so errbody else must die of heat..madam had a cold o and said the air conditioner should be switched off not caring that there's no ventilation in the office and its a department where customers come for enquiry, its so annoying but wat can be done she's the boss..we go reach dia by God's grace..amin...time for discharge clearance no mata how long she gats sign and she started givin me speech about how i'm resourceful and she shoulda graded me higher than 92 like i care ..sheesh 90-100 is in the same range missy so i dont really give 2 and telling me i'm not loyal cos i left without her permission,abeg abeg just sign the discharge is wats goin thru ma head wish i had a chance to give her a piece of my mind also,like ask y we dint go for training,thruout our stay while other corp members went, and y her staff are always looking depressed once she comes around...but i dint get the chance to give her a piece of ma mind,...its all good tho...managed to get maself cleared so so its enjoyment till 7th..yipeeee!!!
