Fiona... Oh, Fiona! I've returned. How was your day? Hope you didn't miss me too much. Came home at 5:50 PM. I tried to sort out some clothes and items. Nothing much going on. What's up with you. Guess what? I finally laid one of my leather belt to rest. Uhuh. I've had it since the year 2014. You're surprised? I'm being serious. Why would I make this up? I had bought them back in the year 2014. They both are my oldest surviving personal clothing items yet. A brown and a black Fendi belt. Actually bought on the same day. Wow, a they survived an entire 11 and a half years! A few months from now will make it twelve years. How time flies, Diary. 🥲 Yes, Diary. They stood the test of time die to their quality. However, I started to feel like these old belongings are keeping me trapped in some memories of the past. You know... I also have the green scarf that I bought in December of 2015. During winter. It's still with me and has also stood the test of time. Has not really faded, maybe only slightly. I miss her now. 😞. And, I didn't want to have this feeling. You see? Fiona, I feel like traveling to go find a wife after my heart. To my taste. Lately, I've been having night dreams of meeting some lady that would fall in love with me. Hmm... Strange.

| Family › Re: What Causes Most Siblings To Hate Each Other? by Allthingswork: 7:12pm On Jun 01 |
Very much what has been the situation between my siblings in my family. Lol. This topic hit home. Impeccable timing, I must say. The Parents can cause siblings to hate one another. Surprised? Well, don't be, because it happens ever so often than not. At least, in my family this happened. Also, the siblings may envy one another over one positive peculiar talent or the other, which either of them possesses. Happy new month of June you everyone. A beautiful month. #TeamJune 1 Like |

Diary dairy dairy... Ah... my only loyal companion from time past. The one who knows all about me, besides God and myself. How have you been, dear Diary? Have you missed me ? Let us reignite the spark that was lost when we both travelled away without saying a proper goodbye. Was it out of hurt? Did you hold on to that fallout that we had from you not getting a new skin makeover from me, after I had hinted at changing your skin? I'm sorry, my girl. Man proposed but God disposed, was what transpired. All the same, how are you faring now? Come, tell me all about it. About what I missed. I'm here for you and you are here for me, oh dear Diary. Life has been nothing short of ups and downs, good and bad, soft and hard. Why? You ask. For one, I had been lonely for the longest time, and I didn't want to trust anybody enough to give myself over to them to be played like a game of ping-pong. You know what I mean, Diary. What's that? You don't like that I do not call you by your name anymt? Oh... Fine, luv, I'll adjust and do just that. Fiona... Happy now? 😄 Hahaha. Well, I have missed calling you by your name, if I'm to be honest. How's your sister, Penelope? Has she left Diary Land for the outlands? I recall now that she always dreamt of going abroad to find her Prince Charming someday. She what? Oh, she didn't... So, where is she at ? The midlands. Between Utopia and Fairyland? That's wonderful. I know she would make the best of the land. She's a versatile lady. Anyhoo, what is new with you? Any new career path? A new lover ? You know I'm not the jealous type, c'mon. I'm just your best friend ever and not your boy friend.😊 So, tell me what you have been up to in romanceland. You did what?! ...huh... By who? You got pregnant for a hit-and-run journal guy? Oh, no! I thought you knew better, Fiona. Journals don't have your back and won't keep secrets well, as much as diaries would. We've been saying this all these years around the community. How then, did you not take caution and heed the popular advice? " Let journals date journals. " You know those people are smooth talkers and very flirtatious. You fell for their charms. Pink what...? Oh, you had on pink glasses, and couldn't think clearly. Is that your excuse now, darling? Rose-coloured glasses made you blind to the teachings of the counselors of Diaryland. You let your Veejay think for you, didn't you? ...but enough about this, I'm not gonna scold and criticise you for what is already done. No use crying over spilt milk. 🙂 Smile for me , my dearest. I haven't seen your thirty-two in three years. Give me that gleeful smile! So, where is the child...the baby you birthed? You did what? Abor... Abomination, is more like it. You know that's a sin, right? Oh well...I won't blame you, because I had been in that situation back in the year 2015 and had to do what I had to do. Mine was two weeks old, but it still made me feel guilty, miserable and I didn't know how to face God that night. Who? As...? Oh, well, she was glad we got rid of it together. She even slept earlier that night and didn't seem too bothered. People's understanding of spirituality differ. Some don't see the spiritual implications of what we did, whereas, others see it. She was a white girl with no deep understanding, and I really didn't blame her for it. Yeah, she's married now. You remember when she used to cry and tell me that she doesn't want us to break up? When she said she couldn't imagine life back then without being with me. That she can't tolerate or stand the sight of another man's manhood ? Yeah... You remember. Well, all that was what we know in recent times as, " cho cho cho, no working. " Oh yes, she couldn't ever live up to any of those words. Not that I believed all of them to begin with. I only knew she loved me at the time, but not enough to not ever want to see another man's Dickinson as she claimed. In the event that we didn't get married as imagined by us (by her most especially), did it mean she wasn't ever going to get intimate with another boy (now men. Since we were in our late teens back then)?? Just to cut the long story short, Fiona hunny, the break up with " A " was messy and hurtful for both of us. It turned violent at some point. We both suffered embarrassing moments and I even got put into a police vehicle by some white officers, for the first time in my life. I had never been " invited " to sit inside a police van for questioning and phone inspection before that night. I was livid. Okay, you've got to go now? Well, I, too, have got some running around to do, so, let's agree to meet later on in the day. Cool? Alright. I'll see you then. You, stay safe for me now. You have forgotten our tradition of hugging before leaving. You know, life is but a fleeting moment. You never know if this meeting would be out last. We've gotta always express the love and care we feel towards each other , to avoid feelings of regret, just incase one of us does not make it back home at the end of the day. We won't have to hold on to that retrospective heavy burden of " I should have done this or that." Glad you understand. Love ya, too. **Hugsies** Aww... That's it...that's it... Get it all in there! Ok, run along now. Ciao 😘 |

This year October would make it 20 years ago when it was first released. Where is she now? The best with meaningful lyrics and messages always quickly leave the nigerian music scene, with its toxicity and lewd trend in lyrics and videos.

temmyyem:You won't blame your incompetent leaders across all boards of leadership in this fa!led state called Nigeria (Neejeriya - in Hausa intonation, which is its real origin 😡), instead, you would prefer to see the root cause of the insecurity and economic retrogression as having been caused by a religion such as christianity. Which enemy?!I can't and will never see christianity as the problem of man. If we all simply follow the instructions laid out throughout christian religious scriptures, we would live in peace even with our earthly enemies. It is written! Those are not words of mortal men, but of a Creator who is sovereign. Like it or not. If you love your neighbor the way you love yourself (not talking about your siblings, but you, yourself!), I don't think you would want to harm, kidnap or steal from them, just as you wouldn't want to be harmed unalifed and stolen from. Man, above all things, know thyself. Who is man? Who are you? You are partly a spirit being made to imitate your creator through his principles, which if followed without compromise, has what it takes to guarantee peace even in a fallen world of sin. Instead, majority of mankind are imitating their number one adversary (shaytan or Satan, whichever), who masks behind the scenes to use man to destroy himself and those around him. Love your neighbor as you love yourself. Love your enemy and " pray for them " If he is thirsty, give him water ( e shock you? ) These are heavenly wisdoms that we are instructed to apply down here in this adamic fallen world, but we refuse to apply it. Of course, the dark powers that be will also fight tooth and nail that we don't apply it, and since they neither sleep nor slumber, daily, these powers have enough time and energy to " carry our matter on their head " like it's their biggest task. What other religion will advice you to love your enemy and strive to be at peace with all men? Christianity is that religion. Unapologetically, it is real and good, and a respecter of NOBODY and nobody's criticims. Remember this. 😉 |

JibolaUsman:You are so right on Chinese and the Japanese automakers easily plagiarizing my design details. If not all , but at least, some design features can and will be stolen and used in theirs. Definitely, I would not do a design only for a particular company unless I was specifically designing a prototype vehicl for that particular company or brand. I have designs I have made without making them look like they belong to a particular brand, which any of them could adopt as theirs if I sold the concept to them. I also have designs that I've made for my own self ( for my future auto brand, that is). The truth of this matter, my bro, is that I have enough designs to last me a lifetime. They steal one, I come up with another. And, another. This gift was given to me from God, Himself, after I asked for it. Specifically for designing cars and being the best out of Africa (I'll admit, I only asked Him to make me Africa's best auto designer that there has ever been). * face palm *. I didn't know where the ability to manipulate lines, think out of the box and sketch cars all of a sudden came from, because, I was only interested in drawing houses and skyscrapers as a growing child. The next thing I noticed is, I saw my hands sketching clothes , shoes, houses, landscaping designs, bomber jets designs, aeroplanes, and cars. I just feel God was or is up to something with this. Let me see what the future holds for me in the automotive industry. I'm turning 31 in June and I'm wondering if the sky is still big enough for everyone in the industry, or, if time has left me behind. But, I get this still voice that reminds me from time to time, when I'm in doubt, that says; " I will finish what I started in you, if you stay connected to me " Which is the hard part to do. The devil knows what God's plans for is is, and he would tempt you till you fall out of grace with God and miss that glorious destiny that you are to experience. That has been my challenge in this field. That's why I had to cut off from girls and limit my delay in destiny. They've done a number on me, these girls. See ba, flee fornication. It is a silent destiny waster and keeller. Let me wrap this long talk up by adding that, I was insecure or had lower-self esteem when making that prayer to God, thinking that I could not be better than the " white " men that have designed and are designing cars, both past and present). And you know, it's what you ask God with faith that He'll eventually give to you, according to the measure of faith you put into asking. I should have told him I want to be the best in the world, but sometimes, you only get one shot to ask and I let even myself down by limiting it to being the best in Africa. I'm even guessing that even God himself would have been disappointed in me, because the thoughts were racing in my mind during those times I prayed for this skill to come upon me. " Without faith, no man can please God. " That's what my bibe says, though. 2 Likes |

I knew it would come to this someday. There had always been whispers here and there about Russia and Kazakhstan reaching such a deal in the future, to help Russia feel safer, and more powerful, through its next door neighbor. Okay, Imagine you and your neighbor both armed to the T with nuclear-grade weapons. Who won't think twice about attacking you? If one brother falls , then, the other can lift him back up( restore his morale during times of war), and fight, fight, fight ( in the Donald Trump's voice ). My Ex Kazakh girlfriend of several years would love this news. She is pro-Russia. Babe used to praise Putin in the house, even more than her own then president, Nursultan Azerbayevna, or whatever his surname is. She even didn't like the then leader , and criticized him. Me, I didn't like Putin at the time. Aww... memories, tho. eyahhh. I miss you my first love, but still, good riddance.  Kazakhstan is giving Russia its vast uraniuim cheaply, nau.

JibolaUsman:Funny enough, omo, when I newly went to China to live, I observed that the locals there were seriously in love with Cadillac Escalade and the 2013-2014 era sedan Cadillac that was in vogue at the time. You could not count how many Cadillacs you'd see in a day in most Chinese cities. No other country had the amount of Cadillacs per city count that Chinese cities had. You know their population is large, nau. So, what I'm trying to say is that i doubt if it was their copy-copy mentality that made the escalade to become less and less popular till if fazed out completely. It was just the time for it to drop lower in the automobile hierarchy. Cadillac brand were stiff with its car designs, and did not have variety for people to choose from. To appeal to the various classes of consumers who didn't all have the same purchasing power. 4 Likes |

Yes ooh, I intentionally wanted the front bonnet to seem raised and bulky to an extent, to give it that executive class look, to appeal to the likes of ambassadors and presidents. You know that sort of thing... I had people of the diplomatic and elite class in mind when I was coming up with this M-benz design. Modern body shape, and not to many aerodynamic lines on its side body. Simple, minimalist, classy and yet, confident look that commands respect from the old-school old-money wealthy people.  I want to see my design being made into a real Benz that diplomats drive to notable places like The E.U headquarters in Brussels. I'm allowed to dream and reach for the stars, oh.

You want to support what is wrong just to make the man in the story look like the actual " person of particular interest " Nah, it's the lady. She's the one we are all reading about here! Ntorr. You even went as far as saying that a lady who disagreed with you and spoke against the dirty blocked one -night -stander must be a male using a female moniker, in order to get males on here to slide into her DMs. How low can you go? * singing the song, " how low can you go "(*2).

According to the lady, she messed up the place, the house was clean before her arrival. The guy bought her food... She ate the food and leave the entire place untidy. Did you observe that she didn't clear up the leftover from the food he bought for her the night before? The guy is supposed to do that for her? She couldn't even tidy up the bed she slept on!

You can only do that if you don’t have a good intentions towards her.
