a thousand words...

i've been tired lately. like super brain drained and weak as soon as its noon; and no, i don't eat pounded yam for lunch. to cut the long story short, i had to find motivation to go through the day today. i find that some days, no matter how much you have to do, or how hard you push, you just cannot get yourself to do any useful work (hi boss!). and so, i decided to write a few reviews about my trip earlier this year. i find tripadvisor.com to be a very useful site for travellers... the reviews and experiences of older travellers make it near impossible for you to get in trouble at your travel location...but it also makes you paranoid of the locals cos some people have had mad nasty experiences.

in trying to get the pictures to attach to my review, i stumbled on the following pictures i have gathered over the years from the internet (i didn't take the pictures and do not own them in any way) and i couldn't help thinking about how much foolishness exists on this one planet. heres my thought above each picture: 

1. do one brave thing today ... cos thats all you'll probably live long enough to do




2. superman's second son - batman - looks surprisingly human




3. this is why you should take offence when your sister calls you a goat



4. gen gen!! james bond...actor no dey die jare


5. how government supports small businesses

6. why we were better off without autocorrect


7. "what da heck do you mean by 'there's no milk?'"


8. you better let your children to be 'find in the society'...bering them o


9. toinlicious stop licking your lips...you too feyi. 'chin yung kai' like you


10. now you know where your colleagues make their hair for 300 dollars and still look like king kong
 N.B: "Pendinquor" included!




11. Riiiiiiiiiiigggghhhhttttt! nigger pleez...

awards my big black...er...foot!

i'm hard pressed not to write about the nigerin blog awards but (i) it wont be fair to all my readers and people who took the time to vote for this blog (ii) i still don't understand my mental state when i decided to participate in it and (iii) i'm as bitter as a older wives meeting a new wife for the first time. to cut a morbid story short: i did not win a damn acknowledgement (much less an award). after all my toiling, having to degrade myself to the point of begging for votes from people who i really never wanted to know about my blog or read the contents thereof, after making people i hold in extreme high regard leave their daily activities and set out to vote for something so trivial, and aafter i waited ages for the darn result to be announced, i still didn't win a matchstick. i know there is something called graciously accepting the results of a competition when it doesn't go your way, but please. i'll probably never have a reason to spew out the diat...

a thousand words...

...this is Lagos Nigeria, in 2010 with the tons of LASTMA traffic officers who jump into the cars of law abiding citizens as soon as they inadvertently miss a turning. We went over the entire stretch of 3rd mainland bridge this morning driving behind this 12th wonder of the world. thank God for Blackberry, otherwise i don't know how i could have described this to y'all...or if anyone would have believed me. i guess they are right when they say that a picture does indeed say a thousand words. see y'all peeps!

of letting go and moving on

You know, i struggle with the concept of 'forgive and forget'... and yes my insomnia is in high gear as usual, so i shall blog the thoughts keeping me awake tonight. As you likely have already been told countless times from childhood when you are angry at someone, you are meant to exhibit a 'higher moral standard' than the person who has hurt you by forgiving and forgetting. The entire concept is supposedly premised on countless religions, complete with the balderdash that you are actually hurting yourself even more by not doing so. Don't get me wrong, i don't believe you need to carry mental baggage around with you for years while the person who has hurt you most likely forgot about it the moment after. The truth is that people who offend others usually either unintentionally do it and as such may not even be aware of the pain they have left behind...or they actually intended the offence and have received the satisfaction they desired the moment you got hur...
