20 random facts about me

HEEELLLUUURRR LOVAAAHS Eyes closed, pouts lips facing the screen and raising hand up on the air with my fingers pointed in my best Wendy Williams Impression how you doin???, well I hope you guys are doing great in case you’re wondering I am feeling fab at the moment smooches lol. I was tagged by the wonderfulToinlicious  to do the 20’s tag so without further ado let jump into it * SMOOCHES YALL*

 I chew half a piece of gum at a time, I think I am allergic to chewing a whole one (I just don’t like a full mouth unless it real food hehehe if I can’t swallow you why should I exercise my molars like that)

 I used to read romance novels way back in the days I slowed down a couple of years ago I still have about 2 Cartons full of books in the garage I am so over them now (all of them just seemed redundant all they do is shack and fall in love) but now I am into inspirational (I never thought I would enjoy reading such things lol) making my life better kinda books you wanna know why? ( many years ago when I first did that sinful act chaaaaiiii it pained me o I realized I was tricked by those books it aint as rosy as those romance books depicts everything so I came home and packed up those lying book angrily into a box I was very naïve what can I say lol ).

 I like my men Tall Dudu Osun color (dark chocolate) as in that dudu must be intense and korikori shey u get? hehehehe you know like Morris Chestnut I don’t want dudu ashy o, but all the dudumen I dated it didn’t work o so I have been thinking maybe I will port to team yellow lol or just be open minded and not accept only dudu applicant. Yall pray for me because dudu osun men may not even be what God planned for me o that is the irony of life

 I cook when I am inspired or hunger is about to make me pass out I just don’t want to be in the kitchen longer than 20 minutes…. that why God gave us scrambled eggs lol

I sleep with the a/c on full blast kinda around 60 degrees it so weird because I am always cold lol but something about that cold air blasting on full force, (I love a loud air conditioner because it drowns any loud sound) and snuggling under a blanket ghen ghen ghen lemme just tell you this when I sleep with the room freezing I usually visit all the planets lol give it a try guys… (If you freeze don’t come and accuse me did I send u lol)

I am a bit OCD about locks on the door, every night before i go to sleep, I get up to check the door knob,(sometimes twice lol) regardless of where I am home, hotels, anywhere I gotta double check and make sure, sometimes I even call home and ask my siblings can you double check the door( I dunno why o, I just won’t have peace until I know for a fact every door is confirmed locked even when I am not home sha but it is well with my soul lol)

 I am a complete chatterbox haba can’t u tell already I am yet to run out of words and I aint shy either ( bless your heart if you sit next to me on a plane and you aren’t chatty I will talk to you whether you like it or not sha and if you are good and feeling up to it we might end up taking selfies lol done that a couple of times) we are living in a selfie time yall make use of it now because when u get old and your grandkids are asking for your selfie is don’t be looking like groundnut o.

 I really really really love eating rice, do you see the 3 reallys, My love of rice is something I am yet to comprehend I can eat it every day for the rest of my life. Something about it just hitting my taste buds bring me immense joy lol ( you can tell I am foodie see how I am romancing rice see my life shuuoo) when I was younger one Sunday my mother suddenly decide to change menu oh yeah see gobe my sadness was akin to someone who lost it all, she had to ask me what was wrong and I told her I am wondering why you didn’t cook rice today is something wrong , kia kia she ran and put rice on the fire o nobody had to tell her twice.

 I do teeth inspections when I am in the car usually at Redlights or parking lot, you’ll just see me moving my mouth making funny faces try to get a glimpse of my molars and all 32 looking into the visor mirror LIKE JIM CARREY (I know a lot of people would be thinking what wrong with this girl what the heck is she doing  making faces at a mirror I AM WELL O.

 I am so into lipsticks it crazy at last count there were over 110 and peep this I only have one pair of lips o it like I should go and do lip transplant all over lol so I can use all of them very very well and to those who asked to see it I am currently working out of state so I am not home yet ( so when I get home I’ll take a pic of all of em) but trust me I have accumulated quite a few here so that is why I am suspecting MAC are guys sure they don’t do juju?

I am a very lazy naturalista as in sometimes when I see the length of my hair I thank God because I am surprised that they aren’t breaking off and I don’t even sleep with a head wrap *cover face in shame* , I wash and detangle every 2 weeks and trust me to do the minimum, what is porosity ? Which one is hair type ogini? I don’t have time for all that o because I will balance this my blonde wig like oshuka come morning (those things seller put on their head to balance their wares when they carry it) I just know that I have hair and I am Nigerian so if you ask me what type of hair the answer is Nigerian hair otan (finish).

 I have Almond shaped eyes hence the name of my blog and they are fully functional I just love em. I wouldn’t trade my oju(eyes) for anything in this world but then again it isn’t tradable lol.

 I cannot swim to save my life but I have perfected the art of wading in it if my feet’s aren’t touching the floor it time to start wading near the children section abeg I cannot come and die o I am not a mermaid o I know my level.

I never used to like change but I have learned to embrace it because in order for great things to happen in one’s life CHANGE must happen (nothing great ever happened to anyone whose life remained stagnant).

 I have learned not to be ruled by fear because it is not of God and neither should it control my decision (the devil goes about planting fears in peoples mind and if you listen to it you end up missing a lot of opportunities what you need to do is go with the mind of God peep David out in the bible if you don’t know now you know o) you will be shocked by what is out there when you let go of fear.

I sleep with 5 pillows every night (Yup you read right)each one strategically placed ( 4 for my head and one for side support, my head is special to me o), the housekeepers in my current hotel room know not to mess with it ( I am not a wakawaka baby nah job dey carry me enter hotels o but anyhoo i just dont tolerate anyone messing with my pillow arrangement it fit cause fight o lol I kid you not first thing i do is inform housekeeping leave my pillows as is dont squish it) and my sibling know at home not to borrow Ms. Cookies pillows because I place and DE fluff them how I like it. if not there will be an investigation about my precious pillows ( the future hubs will be duly informed biko don’t borrow my pillow and I will stamp our names on each of our pillow sha but who know maybe love will allow me borrow him my pillow until then it all mine).

 I am all about my private space I don’t like when folks get all into it.

 If you want to see magic free of charge come with pen,paper and give me a math question, trust me I will blow your mind away to pieces hehehe ( I don’t know if it will be in a good or bad way but nah u sabi o ) as in how I arrive at my answers sef astounds me gan.

 I guard my heart very well and I have learned to love myself (doesn’t mean I am conceited but who else is gonna love u if you don’t love yourself) even the bible says “love your neighbor as yourself” and don’t stay or surround yourselves with people who don’t make you happy and don’t tolerate nonsense from anyone guard your heart you have one life to live so live it well!!!!! I can’t stress it enough.

I love you all BOOM!!!! I bet you weren’t expecting that but yeah I really do, I never thought I was going to have any one read my blog in fact the idea of getting one comment was laughable to me so you can imagine how shocked I was when I was embraced into the blogging family so with that said I truly appreciate YOU (yes you if u are reading this) for your lovely comments and even if you are a silent reader.

 I just noticed that I am bloody chatter box chaaaii (pardon my french) lol even my writing depicts it anyhoo let me tell you something else ( sry Toinlicious I broke the rule) I dislike liars, Whew!!!! I just had to let yall know that or I just wouldn’t feel complete lol. P.s I wrote this in a rush so plz excuse my typos I don’t have time to proofread sighs….. But anyhooo DRUMROLLS PLZ!!!!!!!! So I am tagging Buiti Christian,Afolabi Tosyne,Temitope Adegbite,Tibs,Destiny, Moby,Yourstruly,Highly Favoured,Chris Okafor,momentwithzoe,lifeasvira,Adaezenwa,Petite Diva,Folasoasis,Duru,fredilia,Esther,newdawn,ladywannabeblog Plz free to join in if i didnt tag you anyhoo yall it a Great day outthere have a Fabulous day ( to the guys have a great day unless you want a fabulous day lol) muaaaaawwwww.

  13. I laughed so hard :-)

    I wore braces for nearly 3 years and did A LOT of teeth inspections in my car, it’s pretty amazing the things you can get up to in Lagos traffic, I once flossed every single tooth in my mouth thoroughly and without shame on third mainland bridge.

    I embrace change with mixed feelings, stubbornly at first and then excited at the opportunity to experience newness.

    Great post!
