And so another February 14 has come and gone... spent most of the day at a friends house and then popped over to see "His yumminess" got a few hugs and kisses,came home,ate and collapsed on the sofa. Last night was fun sha. I rocked a fushia pink gold beaded kaftan,hair down and I looked beautiful,if i may say so myself.
A while ago i already resigned myself into being without a lover on the so called "lovers day". So it was a very normal day for me. I don't hate valentines day,but for me it's never been special...Never! Even when I was in a relationship,maybe I got a box of chocolate a few days later when I happen to have stumbled on it *rollseyes* but i'm over that. I don't just want gifts on valentines day, or just any person to share the day with, I want it to mean something to me...I want love;to love and to be loved,the kind that lasts for ever,the kind that keeps giving (valentine or not).
My brother wrote the sweetest note to his wife,I read it and I some drops rolled down my cheeks. Not only because the words were so sweet,but because I know the words were true,a true reflection of how/what he feels for his woman. So I told her I want love too :( and she says "u already have it...the kind u desire right this moment by His Grace". Amen!
I'm still thankful for all the loves in my life,I don't have a special someone but I have my special people who are always there *muah*
2011 weddings keep increasing by the week,more proposals and wedding planning. Congratulations to all brides,I wish you all the best and a long and fruitful marriage!
P.S I got myself 2 gifts *wink* *wink*
I gotta love myself,since love doesn't love me at the moment (we have this love/hate relationship).
Enjoy this song (and/or video). Kele kele love-Tiwa Savage
Till next time Peace, Love, Harmony and Respect to you and yours!
xoxo.

I'm a woman... Phenomenal woman
Phenomenal Woman
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Maya Angelou
Just in case one day we doubt ourselves...read this and remember that you and I are PHENOMENAL.
Till next time Peace,Love,Harmony and Respect to you and yours

Ode to my Miranda
I just came from my home girls blog *sigh* I love this girl and I'm so proud of her,i'm not sure if I've ever told her this. I'm proud of where she is now as a woman,in her spirit and in her soul,I'm proud of where she's heading career-wise and what she has been able to achieve,I'm proud of where she is headed in life and love... So i'm dedicating this blog post to her.
I remember the first day I met her,day 2 of pre-degree Babcock University (October,2004). She was a day late and I had spent the night on a bunk bed (crying my eyes out). I couldn't believe i was in a new university sleeping on a bunk bed. The night before I was roomed with some other people just for the night,so when she came in with her suitcases n stuff you can imagine my excitement. Long silky hair, big eyes,big boobs and a tiny voice (almost childlike), I knew it was a match made in heaven (lol).
We were pretty much inseparable after that,although we were in different classes (she was Arts,I was science) we still did almost everything together. Went for worship and sat together,went to dining hall together (we rarely did),went to town together,even went for weekends together. She helped me make more friends quicker,'cuz she already knew some people and is generally better at making friends than i am (still is,even now). The year went by we moved on to 1st year in uni,new campus,new roomies,new(er) friends. I hated my room and roommates,so i was always in her room pretty much,still we (her,zee n i) did most things together even though we were in different faculties and zee was in another hostel,we found the time to hook up in school (guest café lunch) and always left school together for weekends (Good ol'days). Things were good until 2nd year,1st semester(nov or dec '06). Everything came crashing down pretty fast,one minute it was attitude,next minute we weren't speaking at all!
I'd lost my first friend in that school. Hmmm only if i can remember the actual reasons why we stopped talking,i know a boy had something to do with it (NO!we weren't fighting over him. I wondered what she was doing with him). I didn't approve of the relationship so much,I didn't care to lose our friendship and thats exactly what happened. She became closer to other friends and so did I. We still had friends in common,but we just had a way of ignoring each other.
Things became tough for her,I heard,I saw but my pride was bigger than me. I'm not sure how it happened but we started talking again sometime in august or September of '08. But I had missed a lot! when I was busy forming "i don't care", even now,sometimes I feel because of what happened we are not as close as we should be, but the truth is I always did and I always will.
So here's to the "Miranda to my Carrie" (if you don't know what I mean watch sex and the city). Tough times don't last,but tough people do. She's the one I call when I need to talk,vent,gist...whatever!
I haven't known her the longest or her me,I don't know her the best or her me, but I am glad I know her. I'm glad we were able to work through our differences to where we are today.
I am glad I have Adetorera as a friend and sister. I love you girl,more than you know *muah*
Till next time Peace, Love, Harmony and Respect to you and yours.

Ladies (and Gentlemen)
So over the past week I've come here with the intention to blog, even started typing then changed my mind over and over again. I decided it (read as someone) wasn't worth an entry in my blog. So i shall move right along.
The other day a friend sent me this funny voice note "don't be a weste" (waste) cracked me up but made a lot of sense. So i shall get up and pursue that dream of mine,fully register for the professional class,officially learn how to drive and get that licence, get references and apply for MSc. 2011 I Boluwatife shall not be a "weste" . I shall not let inconsequential things distract me from my goal,laziness shall not thrive over me either. God will provide,He'll lead,guide and protect me.He will crown all my efforts in Jesus name!
So now that i have said that,let me just say this:
Ladies(men can apply this too),if he misses you,he will call. If he cares,he will ask. Do not make excuses for him.
Don't wonder why hes twitting,has u on his bb and still doesn't holla.
If he wants you,he'll come after you.Don't go chasing him.
It's simple He is just not that into you.
Remember that you,my dear are worth more than a man that can't see you or isn't paying attention.
Invest that time you spend analyzing and making excuses for him in yourself and everything will turn out right. I promise.
[Random rant]
On that note I sign out.
Till next time Peace,Love,Harmony and Respect to you and your's
