@ cuddles, definitely, no shaking

HumbledbYGrace: And I still wanna know ur real age Sino

Sighs, thinking, what says me to lady humbledbygrace?

I am old enough to be called a man, young at heart to be called a boy.

I had left my early twenties, so long ago, i feel ashamed discussing naruto

I look forward to my late twenties, the journey, still cought up in-between

Didnt they say age is just but numbers?

Let me be 45, and act 15, for i long to play PS with my kids.

Cuddlemii: I don't have full access to that section.

Probably you need to start a fresh thread on the main section.

Anyways, I will see what I can do by speaking to d right channel on ur behalf

Sino is hopeful.

Starting a new thread feels tempting, like making the heading read thus: Selfish and Heartless; The story.

Well hope the right channel come through sha. Thanks

sigmundfreud: CrazyMan is very sane...love his posts(the ones av read). Reminds me of Madman by Khalil Gibran.

Thanks for sharing

vescucci: Hmmmn. Kids that are actually kids, adults that turn out to be kids. Interesting. *Rubs beard*

I liked that thingie you wrote, Sino. I suppose it was from the Book of Rants. (c)

No comments on many many things.

How's the gang?

V is in da building!

Yap right from the almighty rant thread good you quickly figured lol

Kids will be kids lol, its part of the fun going on hia *pulls V's beard* lol

I think the gang is good, new peeps showing up...

@sigmunffreud
I am sure he is sane, it baffles me sometimes, how we name ourselves with funny names, which makes me want to know the history behind such names like "crazyman"

My tuesday is going smoothly, no strange happening yet...

sigmundfreud: Am still waiting for your 'proper critique' of the 1st one joor!
This is one of my favourite, found it when i was abt the age...its for Silk and HBG.
Will send mine before the end of the week.

When I Was One-and-Twenty BY A. E. HOUSMAN
When I was one-and-twenty
I heard a wise man say,
“Give crowns and pounds and guineas
But not your heart away;
Give pearls away and rubies
But keep your fancy free.” But I was one-and-twenty,
No use to talk to me.
When I was one-and-twenty
I heard him say again,
“The heart out of the bosom
Was never given in vain; ’Tis paid with sighs a plenty
And sold for endless rue.”
And I am two-and-twenty,
And oh, ’tis true, ’tis true.

I like this poem.
How are u sigmundfreud?

CrazyMan: Good morning peeps

Good morning to you too, your username makes me wonder, are you really what you name yourself?

@cuddles how far na? You havent done anything about me request o.

HumbledbYGrace: really?u sound like ur 18

Hmmm, i need to do something about this ASAP...i think i wrote something about my state of mind then, which makes me ply the path of young and old, and here it is:

Like an adult who lost his childhood,like a child who became an adult,like an adult who lives like a child,like a child who acts like an adult,like an adult who doesnt want to be consumed by the child inside,like the child who cant wait to aquire his desires as an adult,like an adult who cant stop behaving like a child,like a child who is called an adult,like an adult who wants his childhood back,like a child who has just forgoten he his still a child,like one who wants acceptance from you who reject with no reason. . . Cursed be the day i seek acceptance from mere mortals, imortality is what i crave.Imortality, not that of God but of man . . . I can see them shaken with my presence,this isnt the rage, wait while i come for revenge.Nothing will gladn my heart than hear the thud of the enemies body hittn the earth,falln from the bullets of my guns.Smite their necks with my double edge blades. . .Get soaked in their blood. . .So much cries,so much pain,so much blood.Laugh at their sorry disposition, i can see them begging for their lifes, today i shall show no mercy,your hearts are mine. . .Die! Die! Die!

Ma'am, i have updated my thread "selfish and heartless", please help moi put it back on the main section. Thanks










And i'll like to read your thoughts about it.

Ade sat quietly in the dark, looking at his wife Yemisi sleeping peacefully on the mattress without a bed in their one-room apartment. He couldn’t help but think of his past, how he had dreamt of a big life, living in a nice house, very spacious, having a swimming pool and a courtyard, a garage filled with exotic cars…tears began to form in his eyes…he was so engrossed in his thought, he hadn’t noticed that his wife has already waken up.
“Are you crying?”
“What is the matter?”
“Hope there is no problem?”
“Is your friend all right?”
“Onitemi, please answer me ehn”
His wife inquired, feeling confused and concerned.

She had never seen him cry for once during their 5years of being together, except for when they lost their baby barely a week he was brought into this world. They had been praying and fasting for almost 3years before she conceived. He kept on repeating the same phrase, “selfish and heartless” as if those were the only English words he knew.

He was meant to pay # 10,000, money for incubation, for the baby had come prematurely, but he couldn’t afford it and no one was ready to help or so it seemed.
“I am not crying” he said as he quickly wiped the tears from his face with the back of his palms,
“I am just tired”, his voice was obviously shaky.
“How is your friend?”
“Did you meet with him?” His wife further asked.
“Ha! I can’t believe it” he almost shouted, “that he of all people can be this selfish and heartless”.

The wife thinking to herself, “here he goes again, with his selfish and heartless story”.
“What did he say?”
“Did he refuse to help?”
“I thought you guys were close and since he is in town, he will definitely give you a listening ear and…”
He didn’t allow her finish before he cuts in…
“Rubbish!” he retorted.
“I called him severally and dropped several messages on his answering machine, he never responded, he only called once after he learnt of our son’s death, giving ridiculous excuses.”
“Is he the only rich business owner in the world? Tell me? Tell me?”
He asked repeatedly, hoping for an answer from her. She quickly interjected, not wanting to open up wounds from the past, she said:
“Now you’ve met with him face-to-face, is he willing to help?”
“Help?!" He said His voice raised and full of disdain.
“I don’t think he is ready to help, I should have known better; humans are always selfish and heartless. Imagine him trying to lecture me on wealth and richness? How ridiculous, do you know that i taught him while in the university?” He asked his wife, nodding his head incessantly as if that will make her believe his story.
“If not for me, he wouldn’t have graduated with a 2-1…”

He stood up and walked briskly to the corner of the room were the cooking pot quietly sits on a blackened stove with palm oil stains and patches of garri all over, then said;
“Can you imagine him telling me all those rubbish that those motivational speakers keep saying?”He asked cynically then laughs haughtily and said:
“I should have told him to save his breath, ‘cos I do have their books of lies and tapes from seminars of deceit”.
He bent over to check the contents of the pot, finding it to be empty; he turned and yelled at his wife (who was wondering what he intends doing at the corner) and said:
“Where is the remaining food that I left in the pot this morning?!”
His wife fumbling with her wrapper, trying to avoid his face,
“Answer me woman!” He yelled again.
“I thought you would have eaten at your friend’s place” she replied.
“What?!” He exclaimed,
“Oh God! Why have you surrounded me with people who are so selfish and heartless?”
