Dreams. I dream a lot, at night, day time I'm a Dreamer My night dreams are usually forgetten within the day but i also get very vivid ones which persist like the one i had yesterday. i was a superhero of some sort or rather i was an assistant to a super hero who got well, bound by the villian, who was very powrful. Anyways i ended up flying, and i looked somehow like Izzie in Greys anatomy!  aah well, it was a very strange one . I'm still trying to remeber the parts. . . . . .

Do you have some days when everyone seems to be so nice to you? Yesterday, i traveled and from the moment i stepped outside my house, it was like people just wanted to help me out Men, Women, Ladies. Amazing. I didnt give it a thought until i got back home and i realized that the last person i came in contact with, had been so generous, i couldnt understand it that Nigerians could still be so nice!!!!. My apearance is not striking, My outfit was plain, white tees and jeans i didnt rub anything on my face, like my former colleague would say. i didnt carry OTUMOKPO. lol im so happy, people are still Nice, despite whatever goes on in the world now. Amazing!

Its done abi its finally Done, He is the President. Sometime ago, i was chatting with a Friend, he is a NaijaAmerican.lol He asked me who i was supporting and who, if i could vote, i'd vote for. i told Him I wouldnt vote and i don't support any of them. He said he was surprised and happy i said that. i asked him why, he said people do not know who they are supporting, they are letting sentiments override commonsense. People are voting for "history" "first black president" and "goodlooking" i don't know So much about American politics, but i know a great deal, and i would only reserve my comments from what my friend told me, yes,i would reserve my comments for now. My sister went for Obama's last rally in Manassas, she said she just knew he was the winner his charisma was overwhelming she said. It was biting cold and people still turned up in droves. I watched on the TV, the tears in people's eyes, different people were interviewed in Chicago, DC, NewYork Nigerians, Chinese, European, Black, White. it really was the stuff that could turn your heart into putty. My sister told me she had been sleeping when they announced the results. I'm happy Obama Won, better him than Mcpain. My neighbours were really excited, as i woke up this morning i heard them say they will kill chicken, cook fried rice and celebrate.lol its amazing!!!!!  My friend in Virginia just told me his roommates were throwing a pityparty they were fuming that Obama won. Mehn, i hope they don't kill my friend oooooooooh  Michelle Obama is a lucky woman!  and the daughters, mehn! such a life
Barack Hussein Obama
First African American President

Me, My bed And I  I remember arguing with a Friend sometime ago, he said he must have seperate rooms, that he ma not be able to share his bed with his wife he said he usually had a lot of journals and things on his bed. i really lamblasted him. But it had stuck somewhere in my brain, i thought of it as i went to bed last night. i would want my own bed too ooh!.  it suddenly dawned on me. I looked around with me on the bed were my laptop, more than four books, the duvet of course, pens here and there. Back in school there was a time i had three laptops on my bed, because i was helping some friends with a couple of programs and i slept off, when i woke up, i woke up in shock, thinking probably atleast oneof them would have fallen Thankfully, im not a messy sleeper, so most things stay the same way including i. Last night i suddenly realized i wasnt a fan of my pillow, i threw it away, pillows i remember when in secondary school, they used to advertise this Contour pillow on CNN only to get to school and see one girl actually using it. lol Anyway, i had a great sleep and had a very interesting dream, i hope i would be able to pen the details later. Now back to my bed. When it comes to the Hussy, i guess one has to compromise, i think the only solution would be to have a VERY Big room with a VERY BIG bed. IF we get a house where the rooms are small, it would be just be a matter of knocking the wall between two. or else, na my own bed get me oooooh

Yesterday i heard my first "banger" knockout for the year.
its November, and this is just the first one.
Amazing, back then, knockouts would be going out in August
signifying the end of the year and the Christmas season.
The holiday seasons used to be so fantastic here in Nigeria, we would got to the Village sometimes
Now, everything has gone haywire, i would love to spend the holidays here, but lets see how it goes.
I was going through my E-mail box, which has over 10,000 mails, lol.
yeah, i know, im that kind of person, i dont like deleting stuff or throwing old stuff away
i get used to things, too easily and it becomes hard to let go.
my computer has so much stuff, its hard to delete anything.
Anyways, i saw so many old mails sent to me, that i had sent
mehn, so many things, i was just laughing, tears coming down my eyes. . . . . . . .
i should delete them oh, so hard to let gooooooooooo

Why You, Why ME.
Really, i have come to the point where Unlearning a lot of things is very crucial. thanks Alvin
Its so easy, to sit back and regret stuff, thinking, what if, maybe, if i had known
and all sorts of headache inducing thoughts.
no small wonder, some people commit suicide.
its impossible to go that way, the best way is forward, forget about what might have been
how do i change the situation im in NOW.
i need to go somewhere else.
Empty
i want that white space
im i selfish
i want my own.
my Enright house.

The Irony of Life,
A friend of mine came into town last week,
we hung out a bit before he was off to the airport and back to where he came from
On my way back home, As i was trying to cross the road,
i heard a couple of people talking about how one man in a taxi
had tried to steal N14,000 which another older man had borrowed to pay his childrens school fees
i immediately felt bad, and the Jolly time i had started to evaporate fast
Thankfully, another passenger had caught the guy, but the old man had already left the taxi
oblivious of his missing monies.
Just as the case was still being talked, we all heard a loud screech
we all turned towards the road and We saw a Car lose control, it got flung into the deep culvert
bounced up and down,
Many people ran to the accident site, my mouth hung open
you dont see these sort of things live
i could only pray that the man didnt die,
what surprised me was, many people stopped to help that man
about four cars had stopped,
before i continued to my house, atleast i was happy that there would be a good end.
only to get home and see i was locked out
Jolly time. the END.

There are four types of "Work"
i have identified in Nigeria
Starting from the lowest of the rung
MUMU WORK
HONEST WORK
NORMAL WORK
DISHONEST WORK
*unclassified* WORK
Mumu work, work without pay
Honest work, work with exact pay
Normal Work, Work with ADDITIONAL pay
Dishonest Work, work with CHOP pay
Unclassified, well, no work at all, Just CHOP n MO CHOPPING
Sad.
Sad.
Caught up in Honest Work, where does that one lead someone in this country!
*sigh*

Thermo-dynamic miracles, events with odds against so astronomical they're effectively impossible, like oxygen spontaneously becoming gold.
I long to observe such a thing.
And yet, in each human coupling, a thousand million sperm vie for a single egg. Multiply those odds by countless generations, against the odds of your ancestors being alive; meeting; siring this precise son; that exact daughter,
Until your mother loves a man she has every reason to hate, and of that union, of the thousand million children competing for fertilization, it was you, only you, that emerged.
To distill so specific a form from that chaos of improbability, like turning air to gold, that is the crowning unlikelihood. The thermo-dynamic miracle.
