RANDOM MUSINGS...COLLECTION OF MY THOUGHTS.

-
Hello People,

I know i owe you guys a full blog post, but mehn... Lagos is dealing with me.
Only me: i am trying to be a good wife, a yummy mummy, prepare for 2 exams, write a movie script. As we speak sha, i still have 2 hands.
I always have random thoughts popping up in my head, especially when i am taking my bath (i wonder why).

For today, you gotta make do with  some of my random thoughts. Here goes:

There is this popular saying...money can't buy happiness. I am not saying i do not agree but what can poverty buy? Biko, tell me can happiness buy bag of rice at mile 12 market? Or maybe f we carry smiling face to Ebeano supermarket  they can give us hot bread. Will try it tomorrow. Wish me luck.

See, ehn i am always wondering when the scientists of this world will come up with something different from the usual. Imagine if someone comes up with the '' how to unscrew and screw your head back'' invention...

Can you visualize how easy life would be.. you don't have to seat for hours at the salon to get your million braids done, just unscrew ya head and send to the salon. But you need to be careful, don't go and give your head to a useless okada man, if he flings your head across the express while running from Dangote trailer...that is the *your end*.

And then, as a first child you just wonder why God decided to ''crown'' you with so much pressure. Only you:
1. Must be a good role model .
2. Make decision for others whether by brutal force, coercing or cajoling...smh.
3. Unofficial boutique for your younger ones.
4. Ready made bank.

The list is endless....but you know what, God dey.


Sometimes I wonder, why can't the world be fair. I mean, i like to accompany my food with fizzy drink. Because let's be honest jollof rice s sweeter if driven down with a cold bottle of coke.
Why is there anything called calories??? Why? Why should children of God pile on weight from ordinary coca- cola???

Lemme drop my golden pen here e dakun. I want to go and study for my exam.

NB: ehen, you people should leave your comments here and stop sending them to my ''wozzop''.
Ese, Nagode, Thank You, Merci Beaucoup!

    Musings indeed... random thots.
    The first born thing sa... sometimes people crave under the pressure so they are physically the first born but spiritually another sibling... mostly the one that is financially prosperous takes over that role... then it brings us back to what money can buy....ummmm

In Loving Memory.....

  Today makes it exactly 40 days since you left us on this side.  It has not been easy, some days are good and we laugh through the pain.  Some days are horrible and we cry all through but even in the tears we hear you, we see you and we feel your presence. Olajumoke Oyeronke Abosede , my hardworking sister.   The day you were born I became a big sister, and the day you left you became my guardian angel. You wore so many hats with grace.  Never one to show pain except when absolutely out of your power.  Of all the special gifts in life however great or small, to have you as our sister was one of the best gifts. And deep in our hearts we keep your thoughts to always love and cherish and never to be forgotten. When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.  Thank you for the life we shared little sis. You are loved and will be missed forever. Fare thee well my beloved, until resurrection day.  Until then...this is In Lo...

Chronicles of an Immigrant: I Am a Work in Progress!

-
  This is not my first time moving from my home country to another land. But this time, it’s different. I have to remind myself that there’s so much at stake. I am no longer the starry-eyed young woman who left family and everything familiar years ago to chart a course for her life. Back then, I wasn’t afraid—I had no real commitments, except for a relationship that was alive today and dead tomorrow. Now, I am responsible for three human beings. Hey God. Two of them have their futures tied to the choices I make, whether good or bad. If this isn’t the real definition of “God abeg,” then I don’t know what is. The Language Barrier: English, but Make It Confusing One of the biggest hurdles for immigrants is communication. And I’m not just talking about learning a new language—because, as a proud English speaker who scored a 9 in IELTS , I thought I had this covered. But here I am, struggling with accents, slang, and professional jargon. The first time someone said, "You bet...

You’re Abroad Now, What’s Taking So Long?

 The immigrant journey is often painted with a broad brush of resilience and success. Society loves stories of those who "made it"—the entrepreneur who built a business from scratch, the professional who climbed the corporate ladder in record time, the student who became a shining example of excellence. But beneath these triumphs lies an unspoken burden—the immense pressure to succeed quickly. The Weight of Expectations For many immigrants, success isn’t just personal—it’s communal. The moment you step onto foreign soil, you carry the dreams, sacrifices, and hopes of those left behind. Parents, siblings, extended family, and even entire communities look up to you as their proof that a better life exists beyond borders. The expectation is clear: Don’t just survive—thrive, and do it fast.  Note the word "FAST". This pressure comes in different forms: The urgency to secure a well-paying job, even if it means working multiple shifts. The need to send money bac...
