Marriage,Love and Sharing





Hey people!!
So my friend sent me this and I thought I should share it with you all!!
enjoy!

This is what marriage is really all about . . .. . .
He ordered one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.
He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them. As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them kept looking over and whispering. You could tell they were thinking, 'That poor old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.'
As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said they were just fine - They were used to sharing everything.
The surrounding people noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink.
Again the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.'
As the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, the young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asked 'What is it you're waiting for?'
She answered .. . . . ..

'THE TEETH.'

My mother's solutions


I was soooo naughty when I was younger,noisemaking,troublemaking,being rude to some teachers and trust Mama Tinu to come up with the worst punishments that I never forgot!Pls do not try this on your children(Solomonsydelle) or suggest it to any parents!I still love my mommie no matter what!!!
1)The day I decided to throw her food away in the bin, the ogbono soup that she cooked with all her power, she told me to eat it from the bin, and she meant it, I begged and begged even the plumber begged till she greed o!
2)She has made me sleep on a mat for hitting my brother(the brat)
3)The day I lied she beat me with omorogun(the stick for turning eba) till it broke!
4)One of the worst punishments ,was the day I was REALLY RUDE to a teacher my mother cut my hair, told me to go and tell the bus driver that I was going to school, she enrolled me in Nigerian public school those ones by Osbourne estate, paid my school fees for that day 500 naira! I got flogged the first day of school for noise making!!!chale!!
5)she locked my brother and I in the bathroom for fighting guess what? we made up and started playing with water!
6)there was one week that I ate brown ogi(pap,akamu) for a whole week cos I called her food rubbish!!

7) To make her feel bad I used to write on paper that she hated me and loved my brother more than me!!and she used to feel so bad and come and beg me and quote bible passages about spare the rod and all that ish to me!well I used to do this You hate me note a bit tooo much and she just started ignoring me!!! and tearing the notes!
8)Pick-pin!when u balance Ur body on a finger and one leg and if you changed it a hot slap came with the wind
9) When I was 6 years old I decided to use her red nail polish on my nails she told me
'lo fi obe isu shi kini yen ni sin sin" go and use the knife used to cut yam to take it off! ki a mosa were were
10) she punished us by telling us to write 500 lines, sometimes with the same color of Biro or 3 colours
I will always eat what is given to me
I would never be rude to my elders
11) My brother and I planned to run away together and she found out from the househelp, our punishment was to sit outside with the gate man, we did sit outside played,chased chickens and ate sweets from his stall!
12)I forgot my math textbook in school and I had a test the next day she made me use okada to my friends house in dolphin!!!MY REP!!!!!!thank God nobody saw me
13) there was another time she made me take bus to school one week the driver was right by me though!i cried every single morning on that bus
14)My brother left his shoes,school bag and books in school one day while palying football, her solution was for him to use patanla(the yellow and black nylon bag with stripes) as his school bag, and wear those green dunlop slippers to school!!!!
15)My brother wasn't doing well in his school! her solution take him to a Nigerian public school for a week, buy the uniform, after that they boy became an A student!!!
Pls know that Mama Tinu doesn't do such anymore cos she neither has the time nor the strength and I'm not there anymore!!!hehe
But we are best of friends, and yes she is the best mother that I could have ever asked for cos no one in the world would love me the way my mommie does!
So tell me what was that thing your momma did to you to make you realise that AYE YE O PE MEJI!(there are two sides to this life)

3)When I was in Js1 I went to report a girl to my teacher, that she never used to talk to me,9yrs later we are the best of friends, another girl became my friend because of one hairstyle that she did, okay in my school we had to have between 12-30 plaits and she did one hairstyle pineapple abi is it roundabout and one plait was sticking out at the top of her head and the seniors counted it as one!! ROFLMAO! but you should see her now BABE!!!!!!!!, and another one of my friends, she was class captain 6yrs straight I used to vote for her so she won't write my name in the list of noise makers but she still did!! tschewww We are still friends tho!

Most Intellectual blogger parraps?











I told you all that I was going to have a Wole Soyinka post!That is to asserverate that I would be putting to use my grammatical skills realized over the years


Today I shall buncombe about adjourning activities till later dates and disadvantageousness of being a procastinator!


As a scholar in the tertiary academy, procastination is an amigo of mine!!Oh yes she is!


She invariably alludes me to put my work till last minute



Ok ok I tire I can't continue again I don't know how that guy does it!!!U should see how many tabs of dictionary.com I had to open..... Not! well just for a few words


this has to qualify me for most intellectual blogger for next years awards!


Procrastination, I don't even know where to start from, I'm the biggest procastinator I know and I give the excuse that I work better under pressure!!!OK working under pressure doesn't mean that I have to leave everything last minute!


I've tried writing everything I have to do down, so I know what I'm supposed to do but sometimes I don't know how the time manages to go buy sooo fast I think its the Duracell battery for the clock odikwa too strong!! How did I even come up with that excuse???


Ok so the thing is I do what I'm supposed to do but not when its supposed to be done!!


I was supposed to apply for a work permit, renew my study permit, Ive filled the forms and all but I don't know the spirit that is preventing me from going to the post office!



In fact I sweep that Spirit with the Broom of the Holy Ghost!



I remember last year, I applied for my re-entry Visa late, and I didn't get it back till the day I was leaving for Naij!!! Those 6weeks were the worst.






There's no number to call Canadian Immigration to find out the status of your application. Jesus became my bestest friend!!Everyday praying for the immediate release of my visa



After a while, I was like Tinu, bone you are going to have a white Christmas!!!Then my bigheaeded brother went to change his status on facebook saying he wishes I was home!! Just thinking of my family, all the parties, all the jollof rice,fried rice,plantain,gizzard,puff puff,small chops I would miss! and then doing my hair!Is it just me or doing your hair back home is the best thing since sliced bread???


I was back on my praying P!






Passport finally came back!Phewwwwww






Then I realized that I had to get a transit visa to go through Amsterdam which supposedly takes a week to process!!!mind you all the flights were booked till January 1st and I had booked my ticket back home in July(I'm not that bad of a proastinator am i?) To cut the long story short there was a new rule that some citizens of some countries Nigeria included didn't need a schengen transit visa!


Hmmmn at that moment I could be a choir master and a pastor, infact I wanted to open my own church!



Flight was delayed for 9 hours!!! I could'nt even complain cos I thought I was not going home!


I still haven't learnt my lesson I still procastinate!

An Ode Wand and Flo


My family

My cousins

My sisters




I don't know exactly how we met

But hey u're in my lives and I'm glad you are

we've played with so many barbie dolls, had so many parties,

moved to so many houses

attended so many parties in Bola shadipe and in Ilupeju

had a dog called Lica and eaten so much gbegiri

and the numerous sleepovers


I remeber in Alaka when, one of our aunties used to force me to eat Amala!!!


I always dreaded aunty Olabisi not seeing my food finished


you both told me to close my eyes and finish it and before I knew it it was gone!


and when we always went to do our hair we always got the same style done


then my brother came along and well the love and attention I received was divided into 2!!!



Picking you up from fountain school


having the same lesson teachers, using all your old ugo c ugos and all your old notes


we've shared so much that I would never forget


Even though we are miles apart the love is still there


Even though I've made so many friends


I'll always love my Wand and Flo!


Happy birthday
