Sammiejo: Where can I buy this in Lagos

Visit peninsula after lekki. There is nothing typically rural you won't get there. It's a colony on its own.

Interesting things I have learnt yet again today. Never heard of it

cecegorz: You just reminded me to go and see that stuff again.
It was damn too magical. The choreographer must be from Venus!
These are things you see and you get awed at the power of the human ingenuity.
No wonder, We are gods! Forget about the lousy Ogun and Amadiohas

quicksylva: Yeah, Step up revolution comes to mind.

Great work by the artist........ Simply Awesome.

Dudes, the creativity in that movie is mind-boggling. I never knew the power of dance until I watched the movie.
Not until Nollywood starts thinking outside the box and brings such creativity to spotlight, Nollywood would still remain balderdash.

dederocs: must we continue in the acts,why do we listen to our preachers,is it not for us to live by higher standards?
most people dat ave such tendencies are empty in the mind.

Nope, we mustn't. Here is the thing, envy is not an uncommon spirit in man. As long as we allow ourselves to be led by envy (sin), gossips and hypocrisy will continue to dwell with us. Our understanding of Christ will free us from these sins.
Romans 7:14-25 but I am of the flesh, sold into slavery under sin. I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Now if I do what I do not want, I agree that the law is good. But in fact it is no longer I that do it, but sin that dwells within me. For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will what is right, but I cannot do it. For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I do. Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I that do it, but sin that dwells within me.

So I find it to be a law that when I want to do what is good, evil lies close at hand. For I delight in the law of God in my inmost self, but I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind, making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members. Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I am a slave to the law of God, but with my flesh I am a slave to the law of sin.

dederocs: but dont u feign Godliness in church?...hypocrisy is now acceptable as part of our culture-crazy religious dogma.

You can't feign godliness. Godliness is shown in words and actions

dederocs: since we all profess to be Godly and church and mosque attendants,do we think God loves us to gossip and be hypocritical?...pls lets address this issue,what do u feel about it...

Reminder: Attending church, mosque does not make us godly. Church, Mosque as an institution is where the ungodly goes to seek help. Therefore, hypocrites and gossips go to church, Mosque to seek help.

This is very funny. Let's the game behind. I have lot of them on my page to 'emekatuary' not only 'obituary'

Dude, you have just messed up your marriage, it will take a very determined will on your part to undo what you have done. You hold the ace.
I keep telling people, never marry for the wrong reason. Don't let tradition, looks and fame or money be your benchmark for marriage. Marriage is deeper and wider than we think and it is not all there is in life. Marriage is not a guarantee to happiness. In essence, if you cant get someone who love you for who you are and not what you are, someone who acknowledges that you are human and strives to look beyond your faults and is ready to stand by you even if sun does not shine tomorrow, forget marriage, you won't go under a curse. I don't do things because people are doing it and tradition says I must do it. I do things because I am happy and will never regret doing it. Being yourself at all time is one of the greatest things that can ever happen to you. I have learned that the biggest challenge in my life is being myself in a world trying to make me like everyone else. I am more determine to be who I am no matter what, even if it will make me stay alone...so be it. That being said, you know what you want, make it count.

Interesting! I watched similar stuffs in 'Dance Revolution', I was like 'how did these guys come to this? It was an amazing sight to behold. I literally watched that movie over and over again because of the inherent creativity of those dancers.

Sensational journalism. I don't blame the reporter/and or Seriake Dickson for this epic character smear, I only blame the incurable corrupt tendencies of our pseudo-leaders who make themselves gods and goddesses once they rigged themselves into the corridors of power. I also blame the naivety and docility of most Nigerians who even when they are priviledged to speak against the evils of these so-called politicians, they would rather play to the gallery and become lost in self-absorption.

I day of reckoning will soon come.

***spit on them***

Great News. I have always been in love with Sony Ericsson phones. It will take an armed robbery salary to buy one now, I have to exercise patience.

Return ex pic? Why not shred the pic and let it go

I found this article very interesting, I thought I should share. You can never tell, it might help someone out there. It might look quite lengthy, but it will be worthwhile reading through. I noticed Nairaland has been assembly (consoling) ground for broken hearts, exs


Are you coming off a bad relationship? Are you still feeling the emotional wounds from your ex? Do you have old deeply buried wounds from previously failed relationships? Well if you've answered yes to any one of these then I can guarantee that these scars will, whether you like it or not, assist in undermining your current relationship at some point. To find out why and how read on.

Scars of old failed relationships are often associated with negative feelings about relationships, about future potential partners, about one's self and one's ability to be in relationships, one's ability to fully trust others again, the ability to fully open one's self and one's heart and so on. In the end these scars promote a very defensive approach to relationships that can be anything from complete withdrawal to what many resort to, "game playing".

Unfortunately, the latter is where most find themselves. Clearly, if you stop for a moment and recognize this simple fact it may begin to bring up feelings of sadness that one's dreams for a truly fulfilling relationship will never be achieved.

If you feel such feelings, that's actually a good sign, even though the feelings themselves don't feel so good. In order to see this you may wish to do the following:

Place one hand over your Heart and simply admit to yourself, as if you are speaking to yourself through your Heart, that you recognize that you do feel sad about this situation.

Once you've done that then simply notice how you feel inside.

Strangely, many will feel better after doing this. You may experience a sense of inner peace, contentment, hopefulness, have a sense of possibility, may feel uplifted or more empowered.

The reason you are feeling better is because you have chosen to be honest with your feelings about what you "don't want". Let me explain.

The sadness, you see represents more than just a feeling. It is a signal or message from your Heart, where your deep inner Truth lives, that you are not being honest with yourself in choosing to adopt this game playing approach to relationships.

By being honest in this way you have begun to align yourself with what you really want and that is the deeper Truth that you do want a fulfilling relationship. You see without being honest about what you want how will you ever achieve it? Well simply you won't.

Now here is the next step in personal honesty.

Those emotional scars are fed or generated by the memories of disappointment from your previously failed relationships which you have stored within your subconscious mind and body. Unless and until you can completely clear (and here I actually mean "erase" such memories from within you will always be at risk of trying to defend yourself from re-experiencing the pain they are associated with.

Essentially they behave like what I have termed "emotional landmines" that re-erupt whenever something in your current relationship triggers them. When this happens your reactions to the trigger will always be exaggerated or out of proportion to what happened.

It is these reactions that are perceived as unattractive to your partner and therefore will tend to undermine any intimacy, love or connection you may wish to create.

claremont: @OP: This may be the opportunity of a life time to claim compensation for the psychological trauma you experienced after you found that object in your drink. The makers of the drink are liable and have a responsibility to ensure that the products coming out of their factories are safe for consumption.

What justification that she didn't open and put the stuff there to ride on the intelligence of the makers of 5Alive. I am just saying as a counter defense in the law court. It could have been adulterated by the middleman who sold the product. A lot of things come to play in this scenario. It takes the power to change the Nigerian corrupt mentality to get compensation in this sort of scenario.

None. Any man who professes GOD is a man of GOD. His personal relationship (manifested in the life he lives which is the greatest gospel he can give to his neighbors) with HIM makes him HIS.

I do not idolise pastors because I don't see them being different from any other person.

Billyonaire: You've got taste. That baby is truck for daily activities without being noticed. I recommend the G65 AMG

Dude, you are the man. G65 AMG is a beautiful monster on the road. I doff my hat for people who pull that baby. MCILDS (My Car I would Like to Drive Soon).

Muahahahahahahahah. . . very funny. Men are in for a loooooong thing in Nigeria with some of our girls if this is a trend. Some of them have taken this runs things too far. It is time we entrenched singlehood in the constitution. Just a few girls to believe now.

Let me borrow this from AC. . .he is a serial promise breaker. I will give him 93% on that

Those shoes are rain-shoes, best for rainy reason

k2039: [color=soyouquotedme]The bolded got me laughing, right word though. [/color]

Seriously, I don't do group mentality on those two days. Last 31night and Jan 1, I pampered myself with seasonal movies while neighbors where away getting confused, preparing to renew their old habits in the name of new year resolutions. SMH

A child's sojourn with people other than their biological parents helps a child to appreciate people more.

Mynd_44: I will rather sleep in my house or watch TV

Thank you. We share the same view. I have been doing just that since I gained independence from my parents. 31Dec and 1Jan are grossly overrated. They are just ordinary calendar days to me.

Baba Eto: Don't claim to be Mr know all here, the fact that pple write in abbreviatn does nt mean dey r not intelligent or brilliant it jus to save space and time wen writin informally. Wen I write formally I don't use such abreviatns. A serious minded person will not use such in an official document. Enjoy ur day.

You shouldn't have bothered quoting me. I couldn't make make out all what you wrote up there. Try again. Enjoy your day.

It irritates me, in fact, I don't even waste my resource (time) reading short-worded comments and documents. What stops people from typing words the way they were taught, even when they have enough space to accommodate what they have to pass across to their listeners/readers. Personally, I see people who form such habits as unintelligent, docile and boring. It has nothing to do with Smart phones.

k2039: [color=soyouquotedme][b]If we are to follow Hess' law, it's pointless looking for a strategy that will best suite you because irrepective of the route(manner you tell them) the initial and final condition will remain thesame(HURT).

My point, it's pointless thinking of a strategy, they will be hurt any way you tell them, so just tell them what you told us

Hahahhhahha, you are funny there. My dude is at a crossed road. . .

In a typical Nigerian way of answering question (with question). Is there any similarity between pre-marital sex and pre-marital pregnancy? If a lady has been experimenting with pre-marital sex, why is pre-marital pregnancy a 'NO'?

Hypocrisy!!!!

jaymichael: chei, that one hard small o to answer, if we want to be truthful to ourselves. except na person wey you don want pursue since na simple straight forward red card. but if na your "ADA OWERRI" and her record dey good in your books, na CONFUSION get you.

Why would "Ada Owerri" (What does it even mean?) do something so debasing and brought avoidable shame to her family? It therefore means "Ada Owerri" has been an impostor all the while.

Please don't try to rebrand adultery/cheat, because no word justifies adultery
