The unforgettable weekend.

Image
Ria decided to spend the weekend with Alex her boyfriend who she has been seeing for quite some time now. That Saturday morning, Ria wore Alex's Tee on a very dark pretty bum-short sitting on the couch and placing her head on his shoulder as she started a conversation," Babe, so I have some logos to design, I'm glad I could finally move on with my life after job hunting for years now, I remember back then, I would wear my suit and hold my files moving from companies to companies, I even applied for jobs online all to no avail... " "Hahaha, I can imagine how frustrated you must have felt, I am glad I suggested you upgraded your skills, and see now, you're making a living out of it, even though I know you wanted to work with the Intel company in New York so badly," he replied patting her hair. "Okay, it's about time to work," Ria responded reaching for her Personal computer, Alex on the other hand decided to tune in to his favorite station, s...

The beauty and fear of being pregnant.

Image
Source It's every woman's dream to have a child of her own when the time is right, I see pregnancy as a gift from God and a miracle. Pregnancy is a beautiful feeling because when one is pregnant, people tend to be nicer to them and more cautious when they are around pregnant women, not to stress them or cause them emotional or physical pain. It feels good to have a mini you inside of you and the gift of bonding with the little one inside of you. I have also heard that pregnancy improves a woman's immune system, don't know how true it is. However, I've heard several fearful stories about what pregnancy does to the body which sometimes scares me. The body changes, I've seen women who were pregnant with swollen legs, big noses, and crazy food cravings, need I tell you my friend sniffs fuel when she was pregnant, I kept wondering why she will do that. It was what she craved during those periods, even after eating she would sniff fuel and it was weird to me. How abou...

The three tunes.

Welcome to another edition of the #TTT. Ed-Sheeran   -perfect How can I not share this beautiful tune I first heard in a wedding ceremony? That day, the bride and the groom were asked to have their first dance, The groom held the bride by the waist, and the bride placed both hands on his shoulder, the way they both looked into their eyes while dancing to this tune made me fall in love with the song. That was when I downloaded this song and even learned the lyrics. I was just fantasizing about being with my groom, you need to see me smiling sheepishly, at that moment I knew love is a beautiful feeling. This song reminds lovers of the little things about themselves that need to be appreciated, the smile, their eyes, the shape of their lips, and their voice. Being in love makes the person we are in love with perfect for us. When we are truly in love, we always see our future in the eyes of the one whom we love. We fantasize about having kids together, doing things together as a couple...

Happiness is free.

Welcome to another edition of the  #TTT . I feel so good today and so I chose songs to get you off that couch, you gotta be on ya dancing shoes and dance along to these tunes I have chosen today. Bobby Mcferrin   -Don't worry I know we all face so many challenges in life that make us feel down, it could be meeting up deadlines, footing bills, or other personal challenges but worrying never takes the challenges away, it only adds more anxiety and steals away our joy. Worry also causes depression and even chronic illness as it deals with the heart. This song is telling you to keep your worries at bay and make a conscious effort to worry less. Though it might be hard to do so, you don't need to be so hard on yourself. Also remember that people might intentionally wanna make you feel unhappy, hey! Would you give them so much power over you? Don't worry, let's learn to live one day at a time. Can you now wear a smile for me? Meghan Trainor ,  I feel better when I'm danci...

My wild imaginations.

Sitting on the couch, my mind started a journey to where I hope to be someday, let's just say me living my best life, but where did my mind travel to? Source It started with me seeing myself behind the microphone of my favorite radio station, I was anchoring the show titled "Let the burden off your chest", .. " Yes, yes, yaw, it's your girl, Amie, holding it down on 96.9 Cool fm, your number one hit music station, I bring you the show, you bring in your thoughts, what burden do you want to let off your chest? the number to call is 0123190969, oh oh, the phone lines are buzzing already" , I was an On-Air Personality, and I was making a difference and mending souls with my great show. Source That day I wore Jean trousers and a Tee, wearing very light make-up, I drove my "pocket-sized car", you heard me right, I love my life simple but cozy so I chose a car that fits this description and then I drove right out of the studio after I had a great show an...

How I got lost in a foreign country, suddenly my excitement turned into anxiety!

Image
I remember then I was younger,  my mom told me I would accompany her to Cotonou, the Benin Republic a French-speaking West African country that shares a border with the Federal Republic of Nigeria to buy thrift clothes in bulk at a cheaper rate which she sells. I was excited because I have always begged her that I accompany her there but she always refused, but this time out of her free will she promised to take me along. D-day arrived for us to travel, and we left the house as early as 6:00 am, we traveled by road because back then we stayed at Badagry, a place not so far from the border between Nigeria and Cotonou. The journey was about 3 hours by road. Before we got to the border we encountered so many immigration officers on the road, we kept showing them our passports and then they asked us a few questions and checked our bags and then. We got to the border which is called the Seme border by about 7:30 am and then we alighted from the bus we bordered. We changed the Nigerian c...

The Girl Power.

Diana was a very beautiful woman who had the sexiest curve ever, she was also a working-class woman who met Jamie, they got married and she got pregnant, this time her body started to change, waist pain, her legs swollen, stretch marks, the constant headaches, nausea, weird food cravings, the hormonal imbalance and all the pangs that come with being pregnant. The day for Diana to give birth finally arrived, she had to sacrifice so much to bring forth a soul to the world, the pain, not just an ordinary pain, an excruciating pain, cramps, and finally she found the strength to push her precious baby out. Now, she began to nurture this baby, her body had changed, she became chubby, she had so many stretch marks, her belly began to fold, and her boobs fell after having all her children. She gave up on her sleep, sang lullabies, sacrifice her time instilling morals into her child, and kept up with household chores, multitasking, and working secularly too People started saying she was looking...

Love.Hurt.Heal.

It's another edition of the  #Threetunetuesday   Here is my pick for this week. What Is Love?   -V.Bozeman Love is the most beautiful feeling in the world because it makes you compromise, and even break some rules, one who truly loves makes him/herself vulnerable, more like choosing one person in the universe to have so much control over you. How do you feel when you haven't heard from that one special person? Now you understand what it means... However loving someone is a risk, because loving someone doesn't guarantee they love you back, people might not love you for the right reasons, maybe they love you because they are lonely at the moment, or because it suited them at the time or just to boost their ego, that's why suddenly they change and then they just opt- out and leave. It leaves deep scars when people intentionally mess our emotions up and sometimes the pain makes us detach ourselves from immersing ourselves in love again, depriving us of enjoying that beautif...

Haunted.

It was the honeymoon of Chloe and Dan, and they both agreed to spend their honeymoon at the beach house which is very far from home. After the wedding, Chloe excitedly packed her bag and that of her husband, facing him, she secured her hands on his shoulder, "Hey babe, I can't wait to spend this honeymoon at the Blue-Skye beach, it's gon be so much fun with just you and I", "Yeah, yeah it sure would be the best time of our lives.", he replied, planting a kiss on her forehead. They held hands together and walked right into the car, they drove off shaking their heads to the music from the stereo. It took about 5 hours to get to the "Blue-Skye beach", at about 9:45 pm, the beach was serene and just two buildings which were at two opposite ends were sighted. " Which are we going for, the one on the left or the one on the right?, wearing a wide smile, Chloe excitedly asked, "You choose babe, and is just fine", Dan replied. " Okay the...

Big girls don't cry.

Image
Dera was a fierce and mean girl who never gave a hoot about the feelings of others, especially guys, she was raised in a dysfunctional family, in fact, a savage home at that, this had a negative impact on her, maybe she remained that way to stay defensive, because like every other person she wasn't without flaws. In a room that looked like the girl's hostel, the whole room was quite messy that afternoon but Dera and Joanna were seated face to face on the couch, "Big girls don't cry", Dera casually said to her friend Joanna, who was extremely broken. Source A few days ago, Joana had a clash with her boyfriend Tony who used to mean the whole world to her, it turns out that the clash might be the end of their love life journey as Tony hasn't been taking Joanna's calls ever since then. Sniffing so hard, her eyes were as red as a scarlet  "Don't you get it Dera, Tony is my world, he means a lot to me, I don't think I can survive this if the whole t...

Some recent fashion trends I find silly.

The Satin Bonnet cap Pinterest Don't give me that look, hear me out first. This cap is supposed to be worn indoors to secure a lady's hair and all, it's supposed to be a sleep cap, it's really silly wearing this cap outdoors on a good-looking outfit, I mean! The most annoying part Is, the other I saw two guys wearing this bonnet cap outside and flaunting it like it's the cutest outfit ever. I want you to picture your man on this satin bonnet on a date with you, you must be laughing hard now.😹😹😹 I started to laugh when I saw those guys because wait, they looked weird, they've really abused this bonnet cap in my neighborhood and I just hate it now. Extremely ripped Jean Source Oh lawd!🐵🐵, this is a silly fashion trend, sometimes it's hard to differentiate an insane human from a sane one because while I was growing up, people who wore this kind of jeans were roaming the streets "Mad", but today I see both men and women rocking this outfit confide...
