Oh Dear!

I woke up at past 9 this morning (applaud. I'm an early riser) and I lay in bed till 11am wondering what to do with myself. My boredom and the lack of useful internet led me to open Photo Booth on my MacBook but I couldn't even take a decent photo. The red hair had gotten old. So I got off my ass, and headed to town to change my hair.

Bank first for money, market for the weave and then the hair salon. I should have probably taken my hair out myself and washed it in school because these salons in Nigeria make it seem like having natural hair is a crime. The lady who took my weave out, washed and dried my hair and then braided it... I have no words for her. She needs to beg God for forgiveness tonight.

As if that were not enough, my stylist takes one look at the weave I bought and informs me that it's a fake. There go the cute curls I had in mind! I was gonna have him curl the hair with a curling iron after fixing it. I should probably blame myself. I normally check the weave texture and all to know if it's the right one before I leave the shop but today, I was in such a rush for no apparent reason.

Summary, I have a new hairstyle now which I detest and a banging headache to boot. Luckily, I have pain killers and a pretty face so I won't let today's experience bring me down. Since getting back, I have gone through my lipstick collection to identify the colors that would make the hairstyle a bit tolerable and I am thinking chunky earrings will help make it look okay too.

I've never been a hat/ beanie/ things to put on your head person but now I'm wishing I was! As far as hair accessories go, all I have is this cute leopard print bow a friend made for me a few months ago. But leopard print... that's not something you can wear all the time. Or is it? I will need comments; feedback on whether or not I can utilize this bow!




P.S Y'all won't believe how many pictures I had to take before getting these two! Smh. I feel ugly and I miss that red hair! :(

Tribute to the World's Best Best Friend

I don't have many friends and lately, I have lost more friends than I have made new ones. But I've been lucky to have the most amazing best friend. As far as friends go, she is IT! Maybe it's cause of her I never feel my social case is critical; come rain, come shine, she's there for me to lean on and talk to. 

She never criticizes, rather she advises. She cheers me on and supports me in all my dreams; both the realistic ones and the ones that are a bit out there. We can talk on the phone for hours about just anything and we never run out on what to say! She's my sister. Aside from my blood sisters Bella and Rachel, she's the only other person who I can tell everything to. She is my BFF Ekpa Eyoma.

I am basking in the awesomeness of her after a 3 hour Skype call with her last night (I never got to my dorm spa treatment!) so I decided it is about time I gave her her very own post :)

Photo of us from high school x_x

She's a model. Beautiful huh? :)


She's one of the few friends I can now say I've known for a decade come September! A decade! It is not beans I tell you. And I wouldn't be the (slightly) level headed and responsible young woman that I am today without her influence. 

I love her like a fat child loves cake! LOL. And her 21st birthday is in exactly a week. Can't believe I'm gonna miss it :(

Day 2: 30 Day Challenge

What's up!

Yeah I'm in a better mood today, thank Jah.

Day 2; Where you'd like to be in 10 years

That's easy! I'll be 30 then (sweet baby Jesus! x_x) so I'd like to be married and have my two kids already. I want to be a hot mum so better to get them out of the way before 30 and get my body back. There shall be no letting go for moi!

Also I would like to be an established and wealthy entertainer :D and if I could speak French or Spanish fluently by then, that would be lovely.

That's about it.

Toodles! [Don't ask -_-]

JUNE! + Beginning of my 30 day challenge

Happy new month darling people.

June and I am still in school. Damn, this year is emotional. Speaking of emotional, I just realized I've had seven days straight of an emotional slump. Not good. Can't wait to get out of here!!! All the one reason to be glad it's June now. Means my release is near. You know I liken being here, to doing time in prison and I'm almost out! LOL

Since June is 30 days, I decided to do my 30 day challenge this month. Y'all know what I'm talking about right?


I wasn't sure where to do this actually; Facebook, here or my Tumblr blog. Smh. I decided to go with here and Facebook. Tumblr already has it's own different "12 Day Challenge" which I will get to when I'm done with this one (even if it is homework oh! Boredom is a bissh) besides, I have few followers there so no need.

Anyways, before I ramble like I tend to, here goes!

Day 1: Your current relationship, if single discuss single life.

Like I said on Facebook, I think I should just skip this cause I really have NO FRIGGING IDEA where I stand. I didn't give details (cause I don't love Facebook as much as I love y'all here. LOL) but the thing is Colin and I are in highly troubled waters and I want to take some time away. He's gonna be here in school continuing the sentence when I get out so I guess that will be the time I need. 

If I really had to pick now though, I'll go with either 
a) Newly single and every intention of loving it. 
Or...
b) In a relationship that isn't so good at the moment. 

Sigh. Lord knows but I don't know why I still bother with guys. 

Till tomorrow!
