Last day of June! Nice nice NOICE.
Highs and lows of the month.
I'll just do a high and a low cause my mind is drawing blank. My high of this month was definitely leaving AUN once and for all and coming back to Abuja to a beautiful new home. I looove our new place. It is fabo!
My low...okay here I can do lows. LOL. There was the uncomfortable period with my sprained ankle, there was having to deal with Biology and being in school past the month of May and of course the falling sick.
That's about it! I just want to say thank you to those who left comments or any form of feedback. I love you guys :)
30 Day Challenge, signing out!

30 Day Challenge (Day 28 & 29)
June ends tomorrow! Can you believe it? I still remember the first day of the year and now here we are at the end of the first half! This time is sure flying by at an alarming rate.
I'm blogging from my phone; it feels so weird and tiny! Forgive any stupid mistakes I may make.
Day 28; Something that you miss.
Right now, I miss being well more than anything else. I've been down with malaria since Thursday last week and it went away after I took some drugs but yesterday, I started feeling sick again :( So that's it, I miss being my energetic and healthy self. Taking it slow sucks.
Day 29; Goals for the next 30 days
Basically, I'm just going to live life one day at a time. I'll still be going to work, still working on the beach body and hopefully, get a lot of, or pretty decent studio time.
I'm too weak for long talks so goodbyes!

30 Day Challenge (Days 23- 27)
Sigh. I need to keep this brief before it becomes a book or an essay. Lol.
Day 23; Give pictures of 5 guys who are famous and you find attractive.
Day 23; Give pictures of 5 guys who are famous and you find attractive.
Day 24; Your favorite movie and what it's about.
My favorite movie at the moment (cause I don't have a main one) is Just Go With It. It's a romantic comedy with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. Adam Sandler is a plastic surgeon and Jennifer Aniston is his assistant. I'm not going to go into what the movie is about cause then I'd be killing the purpose of Google. Allow this 30 Day Challenge and it's wahala. Anyhoos, it's a great movie and y'all should see it if you haven't already.
Day 25; Someone who fascinates you and why.
Easy. Bella, my sister. Why? Cause she is emosh (that's Rae's slang for 'emotional'. Yes, my sisters are deep people). Like I said I'm keeping it short so I'll just show you an example of Bee at her prime.
A tweet of Bee's from earlier today;
"So Rihanna won Best Female at the BET awards. In a category Beyonce and Jennifer Hudson were in. These people don't respect that Jesus wept. Cool"
She said she ended it with "cool" cause of the character limit. LOL. I can't. I just can't.
Day 26; What kind of person attracts you
Someone... laid back, loves a good time, not scary to look at, funny, not spiteful or malicious, a KIND person, a caring person, a REAL person and lastly, someone who knows and loves GOD.
Day 27; A problem that you have had.
Lol. Dumb question. Lemme see... oooh! I have a problem with my boyfriends having total trust in me... NOT! Do other girls have this problem or is it just me?

30 Day Challenge (Day 20, 21 & 22)
Since I started work on Monday, my routine is pretty basic.
Wake up, go jogging, shower and get ready for work, work till 5pm, meet up with Bee and Obi wherever they may be for a little chill time, go back home, and CRASH. I literally do not have time for anything else but the aforementioned. The life of an intern working 9 to 5.
Anyways, this would explain why I have slacked on the 30 Day Challenge. That and the fact that I get no feedback! Seriously, I know people are reading this. I can see it! So just comment for the love of God! It cannot be THAT hard to.
Well...back to the 30 day Challenge. 7 more days left. June's gone by pretty quickly hasn't it?
Day 20; How important you think education is.
I think it is pretty important but I also think one can function and make tons of money without it. So it makes you wonder; if we are getting educated so we can get good jobs and make money, those who have made money without education must be cracking up at all the suffering and stress we go through in the name of learning.
Day 21; One of your favourite shows.
I am not a TV or movie person like I must have said here, once or twice. But there are some pretty amazing TV shows that I love. I wish the question was "some of your favourite shows" cause picking just one is kinda tough. Still, as I have to name one, I have to give it to the ever classic FRIENDS.
I can't even choose a favorite character cause I love them all! Rachel is adorable and ditsy, Phoebe is proper WEIRD, Monica gives me cruise, Joey is dumb in an endearing way, Ross cracks me up and Chandler...sigh. Chandler is just deep. Love his sarcasm. I wish I had a group of Friends like these guys but I am not sure which of the girls I would be. I have a little bit of all three girls in me!
Which of the FRIENDS cast members could you be? (See now, a QUESTION. Meaning ANSWERS/REPLIES by way of COMMENTS would be appreciated!)
Day 22; How have you changed in the past two years?
HA! A LOT. A WHOLE LOT. I have to start getting ready for work so I'll make this short.
1. I've dropped some pounds and still working on dropping more.
2. I cut my hair last year, then 5 months after, decided to go natural.
3. Tattoos and piercings...
4. I've reshuffled my friends and the people I associate myself with. BEST CHANGE YET!
5. I've learned to take my life seriously but not so seriously that I forget to enjoy it.
6. I'm happier now and I have better peace of mind.
I will not miss today's (Day 23) challenge. It's a yummy one ;) lAT3RS!

30 Day Challenge (Day 17, 18 & 19)
There is no rule you have to do this daily right? As long as you go through all the days at least. That should count for something. Lol.
Day 17; Your highs and lows of the past year
I'll start with highs.
*Meeting and falling for my boyfriend. I love being in love :)
*Summer last year; got to see family I hadn't seen in a while and so on.
*Getting trimmer and finer. LOL
*Turning 20. It's rather nice not to have an age that ends with "teen"
*GRADUATING!!!
*And finally, getting rid of all the extra baggage in my life, literally and figuratively speaking.
Now the lows...
*Falling for Colin. Yes, love is a high and a low if you ask me!
*Realizing certain people in my life were hurting me more than they were helping me.
*Extended periods of time in Yola (LOL.That's the only way I know how to put it).
Thank God I've had more highs than lows! If I was doing this list a few years back, oh my days.
Day 18; Your beliefs
Shoo. Beliefs on what? I really do need to contact the fellow who put this 30 day challenge together. My beliefs...
I believe everyone has the ability to make themselves happy. I believe in love. I believe Michael Jackson never touched little boys; they were just pure sleepovers. I believe that if nobody talks about you, it's worse than when they do. I BELIEVE IN HATERS. I believe there's a difference between love and true love and you only get the latter from God and your parents (or children). Humans aren't really capable. I believe it's easy to feel lonely but it's just as easy not to. Lastly, I believe in ME. I believe in my future, my very bright future.
Day 19; Disrespecting your parents
I'm guessing what is expected is my view on disrespecting parents. Funny I get to this on Father's day. Yes, today is Father's Day for those of you who didn't know.
Anyways, I think disrespecting your parents is the worst. I don't like to disrespect anyone in the first place, talk less of older people and TALK LESS of your PARENTS. The people who brought you into this world, nutured you and loved you UNCONDITIONALLY. I feel that if you disrespect your parents, you disrespect God and even your own self. I also feel there is a karmic reward for disrespecting parents; when you have your own kids, they won't respect you too!
Eleven more days left in my challenge (and in the month). Is it just me or is time flying at a crazy pace this year?!

30 Day Challenge (Day 14, 15 & 16)
I have missed two days in a row. That never happens but I been busy and life gets in the way of blogging as we all know! Anyways...
Day 14; Your earliest memory
I was about 3 years old and my mum was sick. Our help at that time was told to bring some hot water in a bowl to my mum's room. What for, I'm not exactly sure. So as the maid was coming into the room with the bowl of hot water, she was less than careful and ended up spilling the water... on my little sister Bella who was just a teeny weeny cute two year old! I can actually still remember when they brought her back from the hospital, purple and crying :( I was very sad till she got better!
Day 15; Your favorite Tumblrs
I love Tumblr! I definitely don't miss Twitter with it. And no, I won't share my Tumblr. I'm enjoying the privacy on it. Well my favorite Tumblrs are...
Love Like Ecstasy
Fifth Avenue Prince
http://thequeenbey.tumblr.com/
And mine of course :)
Day 16; Your views on mainstream music
Frankly, I am not a fan. I prefer old classic music. I like music with true meaning, not just talking nonsense on a mad beat which is what majority of mainstream music is.
That's it! I'll try not to miss anymore days.

30 Day Challenge (Day 10)
Day 10; Discuss your first love and your first kiss.
My first kiss was with my first love. He is a cool guy by guy standards and we started off as friends before the lovey dovey feelings came up. I was just 14 when we started going out! He was 14 too. We had fun. When the thing scattered, I was really hurt and I couldn't move on from him for a whole two years after we officially broke up. Smh. Sad.
So our first kiss was at his house. It was a bit weird cause one of his friends was there and the friend had just found out we were dating and thought it was really cute so he asked to see a kiss. It was literally a peck on the lips and very brief too but I went home with butterflies in my tummy that day. I don't think his friend knew that was our first kiss! LOL.

30 Day Challenge (Day 9)
Day 9; How do you hope your future will be like.
Not to be a party pooper but this is kinda the same question as Day 2 which was "Where would you like to be in 10 years?" Anyway I'll go ahead...
I would like my future to be a sunny and bright one cause I feel like I've had my fair share of gloomy days. Fine, I don't expect it to be ALL rosy, but I want it to be mostly a happy one.
I want success, love, and peace in my life in future.

30 Day Challenge (Day 8)
Hello!
I didn't miss today :) Today's been a half good, half bad day. Don't wanna talk about the bad but the good is TODAY WAS THE LAST DAY OF CLASSES for Summer school. Fantastic much! I nearly floated out of the Biology lab when mister was done today. It was about time! I still have the final exam on Friday so I can't go into offline mode where school is concerned just yet...
So Day 8, a moment you felt the most satisfied with your life. I would say so far, that would be Graduation day. Amidst everything, it was REAL nice to see my happiness on my fam's faces and the way I felt inside, I was proud of myself and extremely grateful to God so... yeah! That's it :)

30 Day Challenge (Day 4 and 5)
I doubt there's anyone who was up watching my blog and going "darn it! She missed Day 4!" but let's flatter me and assume there was. So next I will proceed to apologize to that person... or people (did I push my luck? LOL). What can I say, I'm kinda excited to have missed a day. Shows I have a life... somewhat. Well of course I have a life! If not this blog would be kinda irrelevant... I'm rambling aren't I? Speaking of, I tried to label my posts yesterday and majority went under the label "Ranting". And now, so will this one cause I have TOTALLY gone off track!
*Stop it Tara!* Okay. I'm back :) So Day 4. My views on religion.
*Stop it Tara!* Okay. I'm back :) So Day 4. My views on religion.
That picture sums up my view on religion. It's really about love; loving God and letting Him love you.
Now, Day 5. A time you thought about ending your own life.
Okay that's deep! Who comes up with these questions anyway. I'll skip this one!

If you cannot handle it, don't do it.
Moderation is key too!

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?

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!
