I picked up the book because it looked interesting. The cover page with its bright pink and orange hues appealed to me and the title looked interesting. I quickly glanced through it on my way to the checkout stand. It had a $3.99 sticker on it, compared to the list price of $24.95, so I picked it up thinking it couldn't hurt to buy it even if I never read it. I have paid much more for books

Sunday, 12:20am ESTI received a call. It had been storming pretty bad in Georgia and I was staying up to keep track of what was going on... to see if I'd need to take cover due to a tornado watch. So seeing the number on the caller-id was no surprise. Because I just knew that it was a check-up call... to see how I was doing... to see if I was okay and taking the necessary precautions.The

After the first episode, I had high hopes for what the series would bring but I soon became a bit disappointed that the whole Welcome to Lagos series only seemed focus on one aspect of Lagos. Truly the human stories stuck out in all of this but I think they could have made the reporting more balanced by highlighting other parts of Lagos. It was very enlightening to watch the way some people

I heard about the Welcome to Lagos series that's currently being featured on the BBC in the UK. Being in America, we do not have access to that television station, not even through the world wide web - so I've appreciated the tidbits I've been able to get here and there. The series is going to focus on several aspects of the most populous state in the most populous country in the African

So I was talking to my sister the other day. I had some issues that I wanted to get her opinion on... being a newlywed and all. She was in the kitchen cooking some black eyed peas.... known to the common man as beans. Her husband was being all lovey dovey which caused her to be distracted with me. So I teased her about it and she said it was because he was hungry that he was disturbing her.

It was his birthday and of course I saw the usual birthday greetings and joined the masses in wishing him a happy birthday. Reviewing other messages, I stumbled on one that caught my eye.

Is life worth it The pain The tears When moments like this come, it’s hard to see the laughter Hard to remember the good times When confusion sets in And no word is heard from above What do you do then?

Last year, Good Naija Girl had several contests to mark the one year anniversary of her new blog. I entered to win a jewelry set by the designer, Anne. I had to write a paragraph with no more than 40 words as to why I should win... so I did... [I blogged about it HERE]In exactly 40 words, here's my winning entry:“Your jewelry should tell a story.

Hola Everyone! What a week this has been... can you believe the first quarter of the year is almost through? As I get older, time seems to zoom by. This really just means that we need to make each day count.

This is dedicated to my mother and to my friend, who recently gave birth to a healthy and gorgeous princess and to all my friends and family that are mothers/mothers to be. Mothers are very special. It can be the best of relationships or the worst of relationships. I am blessed that mine is the best and I'm so thankful that God saw it fit to bless me with a woman that is filled with soooooo much

I like meat (chicken more like) and tend to eat it first before anything else on the plate. If you ever meet me... just watch. I just actually realized it late last year... and it wasnt until someone pointed it out to meI'm all about being romantic without talking too much. Actions always speak louder than words with me... If your words are in form of poetry... a song... cool but other than that.

Happy Monday everyone!Hope you had a great weekend. Yesterday I didnt go to church but I watched it online and then I watched the movie FireProof, which is a really good movie with a fantastic message. [They have a blog too]. Unlike all the wonderful romantic movies we watch or romance novels we read, great relationships just dont happen... it takes work! Amen somebody? Are people willing to do

This morning... I'm not sure what drew my eyes to this post... It was saved in my drafts since August 5, 2006. I just thought it was interesting. I used "great" a lot in the post... almost like I was rapping (trying) or something LOL... and the thing is I dont recall feeling like this... Without this post I wouldnt recall some of these people that I mentioned. I guess that's why it's good to

I'm excited about this weekend! It's Easter and some of my cousins are coming in to town. I will be hosting them on one of the days and it should be interesting. I get to hang out with the kids... that's what I'm most looking forward to.I went grocery shopping and driving home I remembered the day before when I had seen a friend. I almost invited her over to my house this weekend as well but

Taking the greyhound from down south to up north is not a trip I’d like to repeat any time soon. It takes at least 24 hours. 24 hours stuck in a bus full of strangers with varying backgrounds and varying degrees of smell. Anytime I had to take Greyhound, I always tried to arrive early and get to the front of the line so that I could sit up front closer to the driver, as far away from the back

I've been caught up recently in so many relationship things... I found a new fascination with all things relationshp/wedding related. I love to plan things naturally... people say I'd be a good events coordinator. It's something that I may look in to eventually. It probably has to do with my attention to the tiniest detail. Anyways I was recently reading an article that gave the recipe for a

Today is Friday... and I am thankful that it's the weekend. So many things have been going through my mind. This weekend is my girlfriend's birthday. She's 30. We're all getting older to the glory of God. I want us to have a girls night out... actually a night in... a sleep over. I think it'll be fun... we can all talk about boys and stuff and what happened during Valentine's day.LOVE STORYI

I was just prompted to search him out after reading someone's blog and I was blown away by his talent... MI apparently stands for Mr. Incredible... and YES! I agree... He is incredible...

Sometimes I sit and wonder what I really did in Nigeria for a month... sometimes I feel like I did nothing but it's amazing how full one day can become with so much activity.I had the opportunity to visit the Redeemed camp while in Nigeria. That place is quite impressive. It's just amazing what God is doing through Pastor Adeboye. I read in the papers that he was listed in Newsweek as one of

I thank God for travelling mercies. The last leg of my flight seemed extraaaaaaa long. Maybe because it was the last... vs the 1st leg when I was going to Lagos.I enjoyed my trip even though I didnt do so so much. I

I dont recall Lagos being this hot. My theory is that the ever increasing population on top of the overpopulation is the cause of this. There are too many people occupying space... taking some of the wind that's meant for me away.... too many shops... EVERYBODY has a shop... everywhere you look... it's either you see a restaurant or a bank.I've been here for a week and I now take at least two

I am home! I havent been here in a couple of years and I heard a lot of things have changed. This trip has been a long time coming for very very many reasons. My aunt who visited about a month ago stated that Lagos was much cleaner. hmmmm. I'm really looking forward to experiencing all of the good things that Lagos has to offer. I am not looking forward to the traffic. I am looking forward to

There was a tag that was to start on December 1 which I was to be a part of but I didnt do it. I planned to do it but time somehow ran away from me. I really need to be better at time management... instead of facebooking during my free time!When it was suggested, this is the statement of faith that came to mind: I believe in 1 God, the Father, the Almighty, Maker of Heaven & earth, & of all that

Today I had the opportunity to review my very first 30 Days of Thankfulness post because someone recently left a comment on it.

The things we girls do for beauty.I thank God I survived the experience. I thank God that I found someone to do it at a very reasonable price

I survived my first day of shopping today. And let me tell you the ridiculousness of it all. I mean at 7am the mall was packed but I got some great deals today... great deals... too great... and this is what I realized... you never really say how much you spend... you focus more on how you saved... well I do.. so for example... let's say I saved $300 on something... that's what I'm all about..

What a day it has beenBecause of the holiday it started off quietly at work... but let me tell you.. the work just kept coming and coming and coming... I ended up leaving work an hour and a half past the time I originally planned on leaving... I'm so sleepy. I did treat my team to some O'Charley Rolls... a pre-thanksgiving treat if you will. So... right now... with heavy eyes... I am thankful

Happy Sunday Everyone.I woke up very early this morning and was watching True Life, a show on MTV. This particular episode dealt with two people searching for their mom. One of them, a female, was graduating college. She found her mom who's sort of a druggie and was hoping her mom would attend her graduation but her mom didnt. The other person, a guy, hadnt seen his mom in all of his 17 years...

There are so many things that we could complain about... I was always try not to complain but I have to admit it is hard so I'm glad I'm doing this Thankfulness series... because somehow I've found less things to complain about and am seeking unique things each day to be thankful for..My boss and I certainly have our differences.

Today I left the house about 6:20am this morning. I looked around and I remembered when I used to live in an apartment. I'd be rushing to work but I'd have to wait for my windows/windshield to defrost before I could start driving. Back then I used to cut it close with time. So today looking around... I realized that what I've really wanted God has given me... and He has always exceeded my

It's so cold here today...I went out last night to this bar with some coworkers... and I came back smelling like the place... I so dislike that.... the smell of smoke was still in my jacket today.... sooooooo annoying... I tried to spray some of my dad's cologne on it... but it still has last night's smell on it... anyways I know better for the future... I promptly took it off when I got into

Saturdays are my lazy days... I do nothing but watch cartoons all day... sometimes in the evening I may go out grocery shopping...Today I am thankful for my boyfriend... Bob. He has been such a great addition to my life and so helpful in so many ways... I am thankful that he's in my life. He's such a good boyfriend... such a responsible member of society... I just Thank God for him.Recently...

TGIFToday was a fabulous day!...I got my hair braided. I spoke with my mom and she got the suitcase I sent home. Work went smoothly... it wasnt that busy today... All in all... I am thankful for how the day went. More specifically I am thankful for the person that did my hair... we work together and she did it at a discounted rate... I got it cornrowed but people can get crazy with their prices

Joy comes in the morning...I feel good about today... I woke up and was determined that today would be a better day and it was... I had a meeting with my manager. She wanted us to talk about how we could communicate better. She wrote a few things down and asked me to come up with a few things on monday so that we can improve our working relationship but God help me... I dont know what will

I've typed and retyped what I wanted to write today...Today was a hard day for me... I went through my quaterly review at workI basically went through some character assassinationMy direct Manager stretched some truths and fabricated some thingswhich is why I had commented on Jaycee's blog some time ago.. that God is my ultimate Defense when it seems that I have none. I'm trying not to stress

I've been listening to Yolanda Adam's The Battle is not yours all day long. I have to get my mind... my whole being, right. I think maybe with the way I've been stressing I've been telling God how big the problem is... instead of telling the problem how big my God is. and How do I do that? I cant exactly start throwing bible verses at her... at them... but I can continue to stand firm in the

This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in itI'm sure sometimes it may seem trivial to be thankful for things that seem mundane... but what if these things werent around...I am thankful that my uncle agreed to take a suitcase for me to NigeriaIn the past when I've travelled to Nigeria, people always send stuff through me... Infact, my stuff can fill 1 suitcase and everyone

Sometimes you try to be thankful and it's sooooooooooo hard. How are you thankful when you're going through stuff. I alternate within the same breath being mad at God and asking Him to be with me. Is this normal? It's all nice when everything is going well but when everything is not? Am I fickle with my faith? Something has got to change... since God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow...

I dont like being late for church. I thought about just staying home and watching it online but then I felt it important to go...Today I am thankful for my mother.There isnt a day that goes by... or

so I'm watching TV and they're talking about being single in America.Can you be happily single?No matter where you're from there is a certain stigma with being single. You can have a fabulous career, great friends, be well travelled... own several luxury items but if you dont have a man (and this is ofcourse geared towards the ladies), it's like nothing else matters... why is that?In the show,

Ever heard of Sister Hazel... maybe not... the song may seem familiar thoughFor the longest time I thought this song was by Hootie and the Blowfish... they sound alike I think as far as this particular song goes... but I obviously found out differently. I really like this song... the chorus is definitely speaking to some things that Im feeling right now... and I like the harmony as well....All

I am responsible for my salvation... is that the right thought? as in no one else can make me go to heaven... I know what's right and I have to do what's right... I cant blame anyone for leading me in the wrong path...My mom sent me Open Heavens... a daily devotional book by Pastor Adeboye, the GO
