Eko Ile! Lagos City...

I love this city called Lagos! 

I alighted from the bus and was taking a walk down the road that led to my office when I saw a young man, shouting. He shouldn't be more than 19 or 20 years old, I thought.
His noise didn't catch my attention but, his really sagging trouser did. I could see half of his 'butt' out!
Like, blackish with some obvious stretch marks!!!

Don't judge me! He obviously opened it for a reason and that was why I took my time to stare. The same way men would stare at an open cleavage like they would jump at it without caution.
Hey! I wasn't going to jump at those dirty looking buttocks! I felt actually, like getting a cane or belt to whip those 'ass' and order the boy to pull his trouser up.
Now, before the display of 'ill-fashion', I had just highlighted from a bus where there had been a babel between some Hausa commuters and the Igbo conductor.
The problem had been that the conductor pushed one of the Hausa commuters and his tigh had been slightly injured by the rough edges of the bus.
Now, the Hausa man expected the Igbo conductor to have said 'sorry'. The conductor on the other hand felt the Hausa man should have moved swiftly for the another commuter that wanted to highlight from the bus before the unintentional push happened.
Anyways, they started arguing and before we knew what was happening, the bus had almost become another 'Babel'.
I kept saying 'Mallam oya sorry, e don do' and turned to the conductor as well ' oga, biko e don do you na!'.
I was trying to calm the situation because in my head I didn't want any blood splash! Then suddenly I heard, " I go kill you. You no get respect! I go just cut you now now!!"
Hehehee...my eyes brightened up and I was calculating how I could escape in case anything happened. I didn't want another 'Mile12 tribal clash' to happen here with me in the bus oo...
Other passengers that had been quiet suddenly started pacifying them. Some just suddenly started shouting, "owa ooo owa ooo!!!"
Somehow we get very close to my bus stop and I quickly highlighted, heaved a sigh of relief, crossed to the other side of the road and then saw those dirty buttocks!
What a way to start the week - It was a Monday morning.
I smiled and walked away reminiscing the drama that had occurred in the bus especially the part where people heard "I go kill you!" And people started screaming "owa owa ooo!!!" Hahahahahaha

Thank God It's Friday...
P'S ~ Incase you find yourself in a similar situation, guess you know what to say and ofcourse do!

For My G.Ma - Felicia

I never knew I would miss her this much. People never understood why I love Christmas. I didn’t quite get it too – apart   from the bursting joy of the birth of Christ, the melodious songs and beautiful decorations; there was more to the super hyper and lovey-dovey feeling I always have this season. So, I was scrolling through my phone gallery and saw the last photo I had with my G.Ma. Oh by the way, Christmas was her birth and death day. I’m writing this because of her. Just to share a bit of her awesomeness with you. That woman was a bad-ass! Reminiscing on my childhood memories with her, I realized she was the reason I love Christmas. I usually spent my Christmas and New-Year holidays with her as a child. She would take me to her church and ask the priest to allow me join other children in the Christmas carol rehearsals and performances. She would take me to the salon and have my hair done and accessorized. I hated making my hair, it was just too stressf...

Life

It seems like the only thing we leave behind besides legacy are the memories we create and imprint in the hearts of the people we love, have met, or cared for. Legacy, in my opinion, is formed out of memories – where we’ve been, the things that we did, our goals and accomplishments, even failures. The older I get, the more I think I’m beginning to understand the true essence of life. I hope I do. One moment, the people we love, know, or care about are here and the next they are gone. Tell me again, why we clench our fists as a new-born and let it all out when we leave? Or why we make loud noises in the announcement of our arrival and walk away in silence, sometimes without notice. Is life that meaningless, as the words of the king in Jerusalem, son of David? I never entirely fully agreed with some of his words in Ecclesiastes, the idea of it is very understandable though, actually very deep for one who has seen it all, I suppose.   ‘One generation goes its way, the next one...
