Live your life to the fullest..

…otherwise it will pass you by!

 

I’m not here to preach,but I’m going to beg you all,including me,to live our lives to the fullest. Because life goes by so fast and suddenly you realize a lot has happened or changed, you realize you’re not getting any younger, you realize you’ve been too busy making plans and dreaming to actually live those dreams. Sometimes we get so caught up in random and pointless things that we don’t see the beauty in the rain falling (yeah I know it just messed up your hair and Burberry shoes), and then  suddenly there’re no flowers growing and no food in the farms and it hits you that there’s no rain! Well guess what,it came but you were too busy worrying about your messed up hair and clothes to appreciate it. I try to always smile,laugh,live and love, and I believe everyone should,we only have one life and its such a privilege to be able to still breathe when millions are fighting for their lives and other millions are dead and gone. The least we could do is truly live the life we’re given borrowed.

 

Girls fight over things I can’t even begin to understand, it might be a silly,or serious issue,but whatever it is, why do we have to let our pride get in the way? Will “I’m sorry” really take  something away from you? If you’re even planning on apologizing why not just do it now rather than wait on the other person to say sorry first,you have a chance of reaching out to your friend or family just as much as they do. Life scares me,after all my experiences and challenges,it still scares me,because guess what,it’s so full of surprises, and the worst part is just when you think you’re ready and prepared you get knocked off your feet,then you wonder what happened to the lessons you learnt and the times when you thought you’re ready for anything and everything. Nothing is guaranteed, say what you have to say today because I might not be here tomorrow..and tomorrow is only 24 hours away anyway. If you’re too proud to be the bigger person and apologize then think about this. If something happens to your friend or family tomorrow and you didn’t get to say all you needed to,will you regret it? If your answer is yes then why waste time beating around the bush when you know nothing’s for sure,if your answer however is no..then good luck with your grudge.

The rain might mess up your day but it smells heavenly and comes with beautiful flowers and food, the sun might threaten to melt you down but summer is still fun and it’s all about the sunshine, winter might be too cold but how else are we supposed to appreciate the sun when it comes back in April? Being sick sucks big time,especially the whole pills and needles part, and in some cases surgeries and risky treatments, but that’s the best way to teach us about appreciating our health.Situations suck,but we learn and grow from them, and being positive through out them will make us stronger, confident  and teach us how to appreciate the hardships in life,for there’s no rainbow without rain,or is it storm? Hmm.. how about this : No pain, no gain..every Nigerian can testify to that,amen!

 

I always try my best to be there for anyone who needs me,friends or family, to always smile,even when something is killing me inside, to love,everyone who knows me can testify that I’m a sucker for love, and to live my life to the fullest, trust me its not as easy as it looks on the outside, I’m going through a lot just like you and others, but I still drop my sad and blue days to hang out with friends and family,shop,drool over Usher and watch his live performances for the umpteenth time,shop,fall in love,smile and make others smile,and fall in love again.I’m scared of life and its surprises, but I’m also terrified of letting life pass me by because I was too caught up in something I was going through or because I was too distracted by silly things that didn’t matter. No one wants to grow old or die with regrets, and we all want to be remembered by the joys,laughter,smiles and love that came with us,with or without the complications in our lives. People are dying and it could be me tomorrow,or you,so I guess what I’m trying to say is live,laugh and love today,forgive,apologize,smile and live life to the fullest!

The Vacation

Holaaaa!!!! omG I miss blogging! *tear

..You must forgive me,I was supposed to be away for only 3 weeks,but London was soo much fun that I had to keep postponing.I had the time of my life really.Met old friends I haven't seen in ages,and by ages I mean 10 years and up.I met really cool people I only knew through facebook,and made lotsa new friends..

..So about London,I probably toured only once,that was when Ilham's friend came into town..and guess who that friend is..Nigerian Drama Queen!! Yup now I can brag about meeting a blogger too,woot! Anyhoo,we all met at Buckingham's Palace,twas raining but we made it fun,walked all the way to Trafalger square,stopped to get some yummy and sexy chicken and then final stop was AQ on Edgware Road to have Shisha.The rest of my stay in London I was too busy hooking up with friends,shopping and hanging out to bother about touring really.It was crazy running on little sleep and redbull.I was out every single day,from morning till night!My legs and back ached but I wouldn't rest,I was having fun and sitting at home chilling was outta the question!..I got to watch Drag Me To Hell with Ilham and Amina,that movie was supposed to be horror but it ended up being plain disgusting,good movie though!..Then I watched Angels & Demons with my sis and Deedix,loved it..very unpredictable,still wanna read the book though..and then I watched Transformers 2 with Ilham,Jamil and Bello,the soundtrack is still stuck in my head.

..Other fun moments were sleepovers at Ilham's were we stayed up late to play guitar hero,talk about boys or swim.Bowling with Abdulrazaq and Abdulsalam was also part of it,though I came last..yeah whatever!

..My sister..diamondchiq,Habiba Sanusi,Ya Bee..which other names does she go by again? Girl you're like Diddy,stick to one name will ya?,lunched her perfume called Beloved, so I,Ilham and Jamil had to go to Oxford street and give samples to passersby,it was mucho fun.We all agreed to wear bright and catchy colors but coincidentally all ended up wearing yellow.

Before I forget,another blogger I met was IamShhh,I shall not mention her name here because I'm not sure if she blogs anonymously or not,but really cool girl and I always love what she wears,babe you gotta help me do some designing when I finally start my clothing line! Thank you in advance!..Also got to meet the awesome make-up lover a.k.a Her Royal Poshness,check out their blogs people!

..So after London,I and Ilham decided to go to Belgium and visit the twins for a week.We went to Mini-Europe,abi Euro..don't remember which one but its basically a place with landmark's from lots,if not all European countries.There was the Big Ben from London,Eiffel Tower from Paris,EU Headquaters from Belgium e.t.c.We also visited the Grand Place and Chocolate Musuem.It was mucho interesting learning the history of chocolates and seeing the making of it live!Did you know Nigeria is the third largest supplier of Cocoa for Chocolate making in Belgium..Sigh,we rock!..After touring Chocolate Museum,we had yummy Belgian Waffles and then bought lots and lots of Chocolates.I still miss those Belgian Waffles,don't understand why there're no Belgian restaurants in Vienna..not fair!!..Anyhoo,went bowling in Belgium as well,in between searching for Shisha bars,and went shopping as well.Brussels is a lot like Vienna,only smaller.

..Belgium ended too soon,had to come back to London and do last minute shopping,say bye to everyone,pack and return "home"..I hate Austria *smh!

El-Oh-Vee-Eee

What do you get when you put three friends who're very much in love with their men together? I'll answer that.The result is endless discussion on love,relationships and that special Mr.I always thought I was a sucker for love,till I met Mrs.S and Mrs.M.The look on their faces when they talked about their beaus was priceless.And when I joined in the conversation,I realized we were all bitten by the love bug,and no medicine could cure us.

Mrs.S would go on and on about how she loves her Mr, she told us about the fun and beautiful memories they had together,and the bright future they were looking forward to starting once school was out of the way..

Then Mrs.M would go into detail about how there's no one but him,about how much they love each other,they way they sit and talk to each other about different issues that could hurt their relationship and how to avoid those issues.

It was my turn to talk about Mr.A but I only broke into a sheepish smile and mumbled about how I just love him and how everything feels smooth and good with him..and the love convo ended there..

..till last night when I was chatting with Mrs.M on MSN messenger and we somehow continued with the love convo,I told her about my past relationships and how I never felt the need or urge to try and work things out because of the reasons why the relationships went bad in the first place.I'm not gonna go into detail on those reasons but they basically have to do with "if you can't handle me at my worst,then you don't deserve me at my best"..So I just left and continued to search for the one who I was sure will stand by me through thick and thin.And I found him,but the feeling scares me.I am 100% sure I am in love but it feels different this time.It feels deeper,better,secure and true.Even though I was sure of what I was feeling,I didn't understand it much and I was still confused,till Mrs.M replied me with "..you're definitely in love" and for some reason,everything made sense after that.

I apologize but I'm back

Hola..Gosh I miss blogging here,I decided to try out wordpress and see how I like it,it's nice but I miss blogger and decided to come back,sorry for dragging you back and forth but I think I'm gonna stay here..So anyhoo..What did I miss?

Been in London for a week now and I'm loving it,so much that I don't even wanna go back to Austria. I came last week Saturday and realized the place I'm staying was only 5mins away from a friend of mine.That called for sleepovers and frequent hangouts.Two other friends came from Brighton and Manchester and we had a fab sleepover,late night food,gisting till 5 in the a.m and going around town with sleepy eyes and yawns.I also got to see friends I knew but never met,old friends I haven't seen in years,and when I say years I mean 10+ and I even made some new friends.I still have two weeks to have fun,meet old and new people and just chill.Will be uploading pix soon,or maybe not,depends how bored I get,hehe..

Worth The Wait

Today,I’m going to write a little bit differently.Let me know if you notice any change and/or like it

..So..onto today’s topic : Worth the wait. I’m a big dreamer,not the type that dreams too much and forgets to face reality,no..I’m the type that can look at an object or anything and smile because my mind can picture a million things I could turn that object into. Like everyone else,I have dreams..Well I don’t know about you,but what I do know is that if you don’t have dreams then you are in trouble!(kidding!!..no but seriously)..Anyways..We all have dreams,its natural to dream,to want something for your future,first you have to dream it before you can make it happen.Common dreams are graduating,finding the perfect partner,getting that dream job,shopping in Paris e.t.c.Dreams are beautiful,but sometimes they get too hard to follow.You dream and you want that dream to come true so bad but you’re not sure what the future holds.And it gets harder when those dreams take years to come true and you just don’t know whether or not you’d be alive to see that dream come true.

Brave and courageous people always work hard to make their dreams come true.I personally believe in trying,because if you never try then you’ll never know.If you try and it doesn’t work out atleast you know you tried,better than not doing anything at all.I believe that if you have a dream you should give it your all to turn that dream into reality.Dreams come with obstacles,and if you are not strong you might give up easily.

I guess the real question here is if you had a dream,would you atleast try to work on it? Would you give it your 100% and hope that that dream comes true? Would you be strong through all the trials and tribulations that are there to test just how bad you want that dream to come true? Or would you break down? Breaking down isn’t a bad thing,as long as you remember to always stand right back up and keep moving,never giving up.If things get harder and complicated,would you continue to fight,keeping your faith and focus,or would you start to think twice about the journey you started?

We dream,we sweat ourselves all out to make that dream come true,along the way we fall,cry,get tired,bruised and even give up,but some of us still try to keep going,keep fighting,keep pushing,with the hope that everything we’ve sacrificed to make that dream come true would be worth it,and pray that all the other important things we put on hold to make our dreams come true would be worth the wait.
