Good bye August... Hello September

So my birthday is coming in September *yay* and as promised I'm putting up my wish list, it includes things I wish i could afford to gift myself, things I would get myself or wish someone (a friend or family) would be kind enough to gift me. Here goes...
Louis Vuitton Monogram Idylle (Fusain)
You can see how gorgeous this bag is,whaaaaattttt I've been dreaming of this baby and one day (soon), it'll be mine!

Next is this adorable Michael Kors wrist watch, you see the colour right? Now you know why i have to have it *bats lashes*
Ok, Ok any purple strap watch will do just fine,in fact any watch for that matter :D

I've always wanted a maxi dress, I can so see myself rocking this on a very casual saturday for brunch with the "manz" after a long night of partying and errrr... or to the beach even *sigh*

Ofcourse I need a new blackberr' (pronounce as spelt, lol), aka the good addiction


I'd love to read this, it falls under the category "I can afford" plus I love to read and it's by a Nigerian Author...


Ofcourse you weren't expecting me to have a wish list with no shoes in it?!






These shoes aren't exactly what I want, just similar styles,if you get what I mean...who am I kidding? I adore these shoes!!!

Really, honestly and truly what I want for my birthday (asides from that thing I told God *cough* a good man *cough*). I want to grow stronger spiritually and mentally, get smaller physically (lepa or die trying remember?), be with family and friends that day, celebrating and toasting to a new year and to many more years of happiness, joy from within, peace of mind, growth and stability.

Here's hoping your September be better than your August.
Till the next time. Peace, Love, Harmony and Respect to you and yours.

Little Prima Donna

August can like to end, so the beautiful month of September can begin...
Yea you can guess right? It’s my birth month and you know what that means? PARTAAY! Lol ok I kid (not). It means I’m growing older and hopefully wiser and stronger. Bla bla bla.

So I enjoy planning and organising parties and events (I see a money making venture coming out of this passion), don’t let me digress... anyway so my friends are looking forward to my birthday, me sef I’ve made mouth about how it’s going to be a weekend thing, I’ve gotten people excited, including myself. But I’ve been thinking *silence bollz is thinking* since my account is not exactly in the green at the moment, and there are many other things I need this (non-existent) money for let me maintain my level abi?

Where did this come from you may ask? I’ve been excited about my birthday party prospects since last year and now I’m changing my mind? Well minds are made to be changed, and I just may be changing mine.

I think I agree with Zara that I may be a lil high maintenance, yea maybe just a little bit na. We were discussing the cake for my birthday and I said I wanted a cake with a Louboutin shoe on it, complete with the red sole showing... What?! Can’t a girl know what she wants again? *side-eye*

The wants of the man are unlimited (we were taught that in Eco101) and so are the wants of this young woman, but we all know resources are limited. This DIY life isn’t easy, if I want something I have to do it myself, I want a party? I throw myself one, I want gifts? I buy them myself... I want to be happy? I have to make myself happy. So what do I do? Throw a party, make my friends happy as well as myself and in turn shell out major money or buy myself that bag I’ve been eyeing, those shoes that have been calling my name and that watch that I need and make me a VERY happy birthday girl? Or maybe even use the money to re-package my dear “Purple Props” or take a weekend trip to Ghana or Gambia, but what’s the fun in that if you are by yourself?

That said I think I’ve already found the perfect dress for a beach party- To buy or not to buy? That is the question. I already know the hairstyle sef, I can already see myself... I know what cake I want, where I want to do it, the people I’ll invite... Yes! I think I agree I’m a little prima donna, how I became like this I don’t know, it takes years of practice I guess. LOL! Oh and let me add my now reducing waistline in conjunction with my shrinking backside (not quite bikini ready tho)

So yea whatever I decide you will know, cuz while I was typing I got an update, so who knows *big grin* next post will be my 2010 wish list *grins again*

Till next time, Peace, Love, Harmony and Respect to you and yours.

His Grace leads....

I swear I don’t know how I do these sorts of things to myself. Why do I allow myself fall like that? Only if you knew how much I feel for you, maybe you’ll act differently, maybe you do know but don’t care and if that is the case it’s time to stop feeling... #EOS
Hiya blogville, it’s been waaaaaaaayyyyyy too long! Where have I been? twitter that’s where I’ve been dropping all of my randomness.

Cooking has been such a release for me in the past couple of months. I’ve been experimenting with all sorts of non-naija dishes n they have been turning pretty nice actually. Now I understand the passion chefs have towards food and watching the simple ingredients come to life. I have learnt that one can do anything and everything with food all you need is a little imagination, a lot of enthusiasm and be willing to learn. (But let me warn you prepping can be a bitch)

Music, that’s another thing for me, I’ve been exploring and discovering more and more. There’s soooo much music out there, especially those I wouldn’t think I’d like. Right now I’m listening to country music, Faith Hill to be exact. I love her voice, the strength in it, the passion you hear in it... (I’m a sucker for people with good voices).

My friends- they remain pretty much the same. Loyal, Consistent, Loving, always there, in different ways but they are always there. We are all different, we may all be doing different things with our lives, some will move away, others will get married and have kids, some will pursue careers but no matter where the journey of life takes us to... We are bound in our hearts, by our love, the value we put on our friendship and of course our trusty blackberry :D. This year is going to be big for us all, in different ways but I know we’ll always remain friends.

My family-Well since the last time I’ve been here, we’ve had a new addition (insert YAY!’s). His name is Aanuoluwatomisona (means the grace of the lord leads me), lol Tomisona for short and I named him Morayotemi (means I’ve seen my joy). He was born on the 22nd of June, 2010 at about 6:45pm, I know this because I was there, not there as in delivery room but you get my point. He is the joy within, my boyfriend as I call him. He is going to be spoilt rotten, he has doting grandparents, aunties and uncles not to talk of his parents. Our precious little bundle of joy, so innocent, yet so smart, he’s growing everyday and so are his senses. I already see all the “best dancer” prizes from parties he’s going to win (it’s in the blood). 

Coincidentally he was born on my father’s birthday and granddad named him Oluwajomiloju (the lord has surprised me or God amazes me) mehn I tried with this translation.
He is going to grow knowing the worth of a good and strong family. He is going to grow knowing that he is free to dream and should work hard to achieve his dreams. He is going to grow to be greater than his dad and granddad. He is going to grow with strong Christian values and a good name, because the grace of God leads his way. He is going to grow into a handsome young man, that any good woman will want to wife, and of course aunty will teach you how to be a good man, how to treat a woman right, how to love a woman that deserves your love. You will be great and I know it already.

May the grace of our lord Jesus Christ lead all our ways, today and forever more. Amen!
Till the next time; Peace, Love, Harmony and Respect to you and your’s. xoxo

(May I just add that this post took me over a week to complete, call it writers block or whatever I don’t know. Just to add that my pre-entry has been sorted out *big grin*)
