Day30 - Something I am Excited for

Finally the last but not the least in my 30 day challenge writing series. I know it took almost 3months but trust me I was going through a phase. Have you ever heard when they say God's time is the best, it is really the best "All good things come to those who wait". I am glad to tell you I tried spying into 2012 and all I could see was that it was 10 times better than 2011 that has been my best year ever.

I am so excited that I can't wait for 00:00am 01.01.2012 to come, I can't wait for the over flowing joy, I can't wait to start the best part of my life, I can't wait to hear happy new year, to receive the warmest hug of my life, I can't wait to look back and smh and say it was worth the wait. I am too excited to type, this December has been so sweet and a memorable one, forever in the sands of time. I know you can't wait to hear my story so stick with me, the good news is on the way so wait for it.

I want to thank you all who were there in one little way or the other for me, the last 363days have been fun with you all, there were the depressing days and the joyful days but you have not seen or read the headlines about me yet. I want to say HAPPY NEW YEAR in advance to you all and keep it at the back of your mind that in whatever you do "Don't stop believing" and in case I never come back to blogging, by God's grace we would all meet at the top. This is just the genesis of it all.........

Day29 - Five Weird Things About Me

1. I am Claustrophobic- I hate crowded places especially with people I know. If I am with people I don't know I can manage or cope but sometimes it still gets out of hand. Okay let me explain, if I am in a place with many people who know me, I lose my calm, I become uneasy, I lose composure and if it is for a very long time I start getting frustrated and sweaty. Trust me I hate reunions x_x.

2. I hate Onions- My mum claims maybe if I had been eating onions right from when I was young, I might have been fatter and healthier than I am. Please tell her heavenly yimu for me. I can't just stand the taste of onions, it runs blood in my veins faster than normal. For the first time in my life after so many years of cooking I sliced my 1st onion x_x trust me it felt good and also tasted good. I guess its the thought at the back of my mind that keeps me away from the root vegetable.

3. I hate Traditional Wear- Asin seriously m I Nigerian?! I hate everything about culture it pains me to the bone marrow n my parents dislike that about me. I always give a #notinterested look when it comes to all these cultural stuff. 2009 not one day did I not dress english wear, 2010 we can say not more than 10 times...2011 I improved at least 15 times and upwards. In fact I wore trad on tuesday this week and guess what I was referred to as "Sir" with my boyish looks *winks*. 2012 I am going to sew all the materials I have piling up in my room, I just need that respect :D

4. I hate the Rains- Any day it rains I am just like a girl in her period. Mood swings here and there. I don't hate the rain because back then in high school our environs had clayey soil, people stepped on the clay and brought footprints to the room, I don't hate the rain because I stay in lekki and my house and street always get flooded. I have hated the rain right from childhood, it just brings this dark unusual feeling that makes me angry. You don't want to meet me on a rainy day.

5. I hate Alcohol- The taste disgusts me, I know this is weird for a guy but I don't know why I dare to be different. I just drink ehrmmmmmm let's just say peer pressure and wanting to be a big boy that's the lucid truth, you can't expect me to go clubbing and start ordering malt or smirn-off. I know alcohol makes you stop thinking of the present and makes you so high that you forget your sorrows for the moment but trust me it just sucks up all the water in your dumb brain yes you m talking to you. Give me berry blast and I would kiss your feet I love that drink more than even #teamarsenal :D

Day28 - Somewhere I'D Like To Move To or Visit

Caller no.32 on the waiting list of Swift's customer care. Asin for real today of all days I decided to have pictures on my blog my internet connection aint working, please bear with me.

Thinking, where will I really want to move to or visit. Yeah finally I think I want to visit all the continents *dats greedy of me* well its my blog. I really want to go to Alaska, I have always had thoughts of dieing the first night I sleep there. Ask me why?! Well I heard its so cold there that you need a freezer so your food stuffs wouldn't freeze up. Its so funny how I sleep with my fan on and wake up with blocked nostrils talkless of using my a.c and I want to visit the North-Pole. My respiratory system is really that weak :( God dey.

Trinidad and Tobago one of the archipelagic states in the southern Caribbean should be my next stop. You know how I always day-dream of marrying a wife from that beautiful island and starting my family there, well that's me for you :p. Next I think I will make a brief stop in Brazil, I have heard stories about their ladies always half nude :D pleasant to the eyes mehn.....heheh please don't hate. I really need God to save me from me.

Oh no!! I almost forgot Palm Island Grenadines, I remember the first time I heard about it, I hit my google button straight and I told God this is the place for our honey-moon if He tarries :D. Wow I am already tired of typing on this keypad well we r back to Europe and it is no other place but Paris ( I am still learning french sha), next flight to China, they are gradually overtaking the world if you can't beat them join them asap!! Anyway my main reason is that I really want to see how over-populated they are and still manage to be a great country no major reason.

In Africa if I were not Nigerian I would have wanted to visit this great nation to really see how third world they are. I guess the story I would have bn writing is: let me get to Nigeria and really experience what they mean by no constant supply of electricity. Well it is the other way round so south-africa here I come, its me Reme ur boy you have been waiting for. Last stop, let's quickly touch down Australia, hmmm heard Australasia is a magnificent continent I need to get ma footprints there. Okay let's stop the day dream, I think I need a trip to Accra for easter or maybe calabar here in Nigeria that should be fun.

By Gods grace 2012 will be fun, watch out!!!

Day27- A Quote I Try To Live By

Nisi Dominus Frustra pronounced nee-see daw-mee-news froo-stra. Okay before I go into the main post of the day I just want to say compliments of the season to all of you out there. I know I have been away for a while hmmm let's say about 3months but trust me before I left I was a sad man but right now I am so happy x_x don't know whether its because of the season or let's just blame it all on the Lord he alone is the source of my joy.

I remember the first time I came across "Nisi Dominus Frustra" I couldn't help but ping the owner of the personal message on bbm, usually I am not bothered by peoples pm or their status cos some peeps just update their whole life on bbm anyway this is not why we are here. He told me the latin phrase meant "unless the Lord we labour in vain" and it all made too much sense in fact it made brain #datisall.

Since then I have tried to live by it. It explains the 1st verse of Psalm 127....that reminds me I have been ordained as a worker in RCCG gigal parish (sunday school teacher/usher) heheheh I hear chants *preach on brother* lmao dnt mind me. Anyway Psalm 127 states and I quote "Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain" KJV, this can be related to our everyday life without God in whatever we do, we all labour in vain.

So I need you all to take a deep breath after reading this and think if not for God where would I have been today...you can also steal it and make it ur most favourite quote *winks* I stole it so u can also steal it after all God is big enough for all.

HAPPY BOXING DAY!!!
Life without the Lord is in vain.

Day25 - Something I am Currently Worrying About

Plans sometimes change. Anyway it was expected but I have not given up yet, few days and I am out of this chilling town. My folks want me to stay back, a few old and new friends (sugar mummy) I just made also want me to stay but gidi is where my heart is. I miss gidi a lot especially that one special girl *stops typing and blushes a bit*. I told myself I would stop regretting but it is inevitable, I cannot force the employers of jobs to give me a job I blame the economy it is just fucked up (sorry for the swearing).


When I booked my ticket to come stay with my folks I told myself the only thing that would bring me back to gidi before my expected return is that sudden mail or phone call either for a job exam or an interview. I am tired of worrying, in fact I am done worrying. It is too early for me to start growing old due to worrying. During my stay here there was no one day my phone light blinked and I did not wish it was a heart-warming mail or my phone ring and I did not wish it was an HR member. Al is well *in my Indian accent*

I received so many gifts and even when I was asked what I wanted, I would say the best birthday gift I can wish for is a good paying job, I have not given up on God and I know he has not given up on me. I know my best friend stayed approximately 350days before he got a job but seriously I am tired of staying home, I am not the kind of person that likes seating in one place my body itches me a lot. My gift from God is still on the way I am trusting Him all out. I am too proud to ask daddy for money no I would not till things become too hard which I know would never get to that extent *I am so trying to smile* it is difficult right now.

Lagos here I come with 2 additional kg which I know I would shred in 2days, I am still laughing hard you wouldn’t believe what happened this night at our daily night devotion, daddy was the man of the moment he just came out of the shower which he was just observing for the first time of the day *if it is Reme now they would either murder me with the power or the tongue or wouldn’t allow me eat* and remixed not only 1, not only 2 but all the hymns we sang. I kept laughing hard but couldn’t be accompanied by mummy who was crashing, she really had a tough day, left the house by 7am for exercise then left for the market and didn’t return till 2pm. Let me leave my parents drama for now I am really going to miss them. Well I thought I wouldn’t be happy throughout this post but plans indeed change got to crash now, we leave for service by 6am and trust me you do not want to get an ex-military man late you would wish you were dead. Tkcr fellas Adios!!!

Day24 - Five Words/Phrases That Make Me Laugh

My birthday weekend is finally over I think it is high time I get back to the serious things of life. Anyway it was in fact the best I ever had, from partying (mad night) to hotel chilling to trying to lift some weights (bones snapped sha) to swimming. Ooops did I forget the buffet *me and food sha* the gifts also came rolling in, I never knew I was this loved even people I dint expect to remember that great day they all proved me wrong. Special thanks to God for keeping me alive to see another year and also making each year a better one for me because I am always on a higher level after every 365 days. I want to bless my family too, it aint easy having 4 sisters they would try their possible best to pamper and flood you with gifts and the gifts from my other friends it’s a big THANK YOU to you all, I have never felt this loved, looking forward to the next 361 days I can’t just wait.


This is the hardest topic in this challenge; I have been cracking my small skull to come up with something good o well!! I couldn’t so I can just say thank you for passing by. Heheheh don’t go anywhere yet, if 3 words were requested for it would have been too easy, if it was 5 words that get me annoyed it would have come rolling in a very long time ago anyway but here it goes. I wonder how many of you know Terry-G the ganja master (that’s what I think of him), he is so haggard looking, and sometimes I feel he is a mad man with a level of good sense. I wonder how much weed he takes into his system before he says all the rubbish that comes out of his mouth. Everything can be acting sha, he may not even be a weed master or a psycho he just wants people to talk or leave a comment. The 5 words that make me laugh are *you can stop guessing right about now* “MAKE I KNACK YOU APAKO”. I remember the first day I saw apako (pronounced akpako) on twitter, you wouldn’t believe I checked the dictionary, then a thought flooded my mind this word is too razz to be in oxford, forgive me I had not heard the song then, you know I am always carrying last when it comes to music.

Anyway the first person I asked the meaning was in my office and he was like its terry-g’s own slang, terry must have been high when he said it. It made me just take it as his personal phrase, you know now like Tubaba’s personal phrase is “NOTHING DEY HAPPEN”.I asked my very close friend and all that could come out of his dirty mind was “make I f*** you”, another person said it means “make I knack you stick”, another said “make I knack you stick” another friend thinks it’s a “BELL”…..this is going to be an endless controversy but as more replies come in I would feed it into this post. I leave you with this *now singing and dancing* make I knack am knack am knack am, make I knack you apako baby make I knack you apako…..lmao =D

Day23 - Something I Miss

Pardon me for my very long break, it wasn't really needed but it was necessary. It feels good to be back even though I am not really in the mood to write but I must complete my 30day challenge as promised. I am glad to tell you NYSC is over and my certificate is hanging in my room (jokes) its in one folder like that *one year gone so soon* anyway the real life has just begun.

The truth is that I miss my old self, let me put it this way, I miss growing up, I miss my childhood. Its not a life I want to go back neither is it one am so proud of. Growing up as a child for me wasn't easy, anytime I go back in time maybe after looking at my pictures a still small voice whispers in my ears so this fine cutie was a mumu boy.

I was one child in my own world, never allowed anybody carry me as a baby *only family* I would weep till the roofs came falling down. Nursery school you would drop me off in one spot that's the same place you would pick me up from. I hardly made friends, I was just into myself....it was a breakfast-school-lunch-dinner routine everyday. No extra-curricular activities, if my routine was broken like daddy telling me to go and play I would just leave the house pretend to play and come back.

Look at me now *in chris brown's voice* I am so different, people keep complaining Ehi you have so many friends, where do you know all these fine girls from. Actually I am not allergic to ugly girls but they don't just come my way. One thing I told myself when I graduated from secondary school was this: Ehi you really need to change, open up and if you think it hurts you can always change back to your old shy life after all I own myself. This has kept me going-on I can't even imagine still living that my old wretched life but I really do miss it. Life has thought me lessons, that you always have to believe in yourself no matter the situation. Low self esteem sucks,its not easy coming out of it but trust me giving everything a trial is worth it. I so love my life at the moment, with all humility I make sure I leave my foot steps on the sands of time, its almost impossible for you to have me as a good friend and when I am a distance away you wouldn't feel the impact that I am gone, you just have to miss me one way or the other :D

Day22 - My Academics

I have to say a very big thank you to God for making me who I am today. I can say the journey thus far wasn't an easy one, I can also say I wish I could go back in time and cross those T's and dot my I's.

My academics has been a very good one, sometimes I think so deep and I wonder where I got my wisdom and understanding from. I must confess its striving to do what is worth doing well that keeps me going. During the course of the week I was privileged to stumble across my seat partner in Class 5 and she reminded me how smart I used to be, I miss those days when I was focused, when fine girls where not the other of the day. Anytime I tell them(pry and high school friends) that I don't feel I was that smart they all yimu me and take me as a proud young man. Those days maths was the other of the day, as we speak now I have an online SHL test for a company I applied to but I am not in the mood to solve. I hate writing, I hate solving, I hate playing with figures, laziness has set in but from where?!

How did it start...this takes me back to class 3, I had this red evil maths textbook can't remember the name and trust me it is not ugo.c.ugo or understanding maths. Sums where so hard that I hid this book and told my parents it had been misplaced. They scolded me hard till I gave up my lies. One day out of 40questions I couldn't even solve one I ran away from the house forming I was going for choir practice. Unfortunately I never found my friend who I was to follow, I returned home to face the naval man's wrath he beat me so hard that I cried on my maths text. Guess what as the tears dropped on the page, it was like magic, I saw the answers, I solved in my brain, my little fingers wrote faster than my brain. Day in day out I mastered the act of mathematics, it became too easy. Pry 5 and Year 10 I ended up been the best maths student in my set.

Time flies you wouldn't believe that story just popped up in my head, how I remembered it only God knows. My academics has been a very graceful one I miss school, I miss education but along the line a girl always shows up. Its one more phase, one more mountain to cross for now at least my M.Eng in petroleum engineering that's all on my mind, I am even working on my essays so I can gain admission for my last academic stage of my life. I might still consider an MBA but till then my brain has been stretched but I must return back to school someday God sparing my life.

Day21 - How I hope my future to be like

The title of this post makes me smile over and over again...ask me why? Because if I start with my daydream about my Trinidad and Tobago wife with our son and daughter on our very own island you all would stone me with rotten eggs.
But really how do I want my future to be like? Do I want to be a working class man who is always travelling about with little or no time for the kids, or do I want to have my business so I can retire at an early age... These are the questions that bother me as I type this post.
I want to be comfortable enough, so I can get married to the right person before I am thirty years old, I want just two kids a girl and a guy, but if I get two of the same sexes concurrently I would try with another child then give up. I don't want to have a football team in my house crying and running helter skelter. I don't want a very proud future it has to be a lowkey one, I want to have a good job probably one in the oil and gas industry as this has been a dream for many years. I want to be a man who has made a little impact in my very own world someone who would leave footprints in the sands of time when I am gone. All these about my future has started a long time ago the plans are on ground and more scripts are added day in day out.
I Want to be so different from my dad, as generous as he is but still very different. By Gods grace I hope not to be in Nigeria but I am not saying if I find myself here I would kill myself, well man must survive but seriously even though my kids have their primary education here well after that they are out of this country shikena. I know God has plans for me and I am not ready to go out of his will for my life I just have to stick to the script without skipping scenes. I don't want a big house like my father, first of all I am not a guy that likes big things or let me put it like this big things come in small packages that's who I am. I would prefer go stay in a flat with 4 rooms, 1 for my wife and I, 2 for the kids and 1 for my guest. When I finally build or buy a house it must have more of land than the structure itself, there has to be more room for my lawn and parking of my different cars, a swimming pool and a mini-court. I think I am getting proud, anyway summer travelling around the world is a compulsory thing despite the country I finally settle down. I have so many big dreams that this white clipboard I am typing on cannot handle I think its better I leave my lips sealed and leave every other thing for God.
Time will actually tell don't go nowhere because your boy Remzay is actually heading for the moon and not the sky.

Day20 - My FEARS

I needed it badly, I couldn’t multitask, it was difficult but guess what I think I am back from my one week break. I am very sorry for not taking permission to go the break but trust me it was worth it. You know my NYSC us ending very soon so I took a break to work some things out.
Everyone has fears, even the richest man in the world is scared of tomorrow because he can die and leave everything, he may even be scared of losing his top position on the Forbes list. These are my fears;
I just have this feeling I wouldn’t marry a fine girl compared to those I have dated.
I am scared as we speak that I may change my mind and come back to this country when and if I finally escape.
I am scared that I could lose my life any moment from now without having to see lil Ehi.
I have this feeling I might not be as rich as I want.
I have this feeling that if I ask her out the answer is NO
I have this feeling I might not get the job I highly need at this moment
I have this feeling I may be this slim for life
I have this feeling that my stupidity or silliness may have increased from the last time it was measured.
I have this feeling she loves me but doesn’t want to make a mistake
I just have this feeling I may hit a girl some day even after 10years of abstaining
I have this feeling my best friend would not be my best man at my wedding
I have this feeling I may not make Heaven but God forbid.
I have this feeling that sometime soon this blog would be forgotten
I have this feeling arsenal might not win a cup even 5 years from now
I have this feeling that writing is not meant for me
I have this feeling that someday I would sleep and never wake up
I have this feeling I should never have written this post because my fears might actually come to pass K

Day19 - Five Things I Lust After

For all is vanity but we always wish we can have them all. The bible says "for what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul". Its human nature to lust after the things of this world, I can't imagine I am being limited to only five. Lmao I can't even name 3 without thinking deep but anyway enough of the blabbing let's get down to business.

1. Perfumes
I love nice scents. I wonder who in the world loves BO. You don't need to spray up to smell nice but I always wish I could soak myself up in a good perf and walk around. Don't you just love it when the ladies tell you that you have a nice scent and what's the name of your cologne, ghen ghen!!! You now give them that proud look in your mind and your like duhhh like I don't know, in fact I can't wait for my next perf I just hope this time around I don't have to spray 24hours before time because of my sister and her hatred for woody perfs.

2.Food
X_X I am currently sober, my stomach hurts so bad just because of the love for food. I actually went on a distance just to experience the taste of food served at mobil for lunch. It was really an experience and worth it. I can't afford to tell you all I had but I can say it was a greedy meal. I have my days when I grub 2days meal in one seating and I have days when I am not just in the mood to eat but trust me everybody loves a good meal. I wonder where all the food goes at the end of the day, it just evaporates into the thin air 8-|

3. G55 AMG
It just had to enter my list. I can't see a G55 AMG pass and not shiver or have goose flesh, its classic, its fresh, its boxy and it has all it takes. By Gods grace this would be my first SUV *whew* seems I have to work harder. Mercedes really make the best cars to me, they just make cars to have such a mean look that would make you think of stealing just to take the car for a ride and return it. I actually heard this particular SUV summer salts and lands back on its tyres like a cat lands on it feet. I heard oo I didn't say so but surely you got to love a black SUV like the G55 AMG if you need pictures just google it.

4. Clothes and Footwears
I love being in style that is all. Who in this world wants to look like a rifraf. You have to spend good money to look good. Since I graduated from school I have been trying to change my whole collection and I can assure you I have tried to an extent. I can't just wait for the dollar bills to start rolling in then you would see the real Reme I would splash that cash straight in the shops.

5. The I's
I am sure you are wondering what this means. Don't let your mind go to far, I actually mean all apple products the i touch,i phone,i pad,i mac if there is anything like that. I can't wait to get all and if you don't want me waiting you can sow into my life :D

Day18 - A Problem I Have Had

I hate remembering the past, the thought about it hurts so much. This evening the dermatologist just had to ask I wonder how an irritation on both of my legs links to me being an asthmatic patient.

I can't remember my first attack but I can remember the last, it was all like yesterday. As I grew up my mum promised me that by the time I am 18 it would be all gone. I dreamt of my 18th birthday day in day out because it was just like it would never come. The attacks always came at the wrong time, towards the night, difficulty sleeping was the order of the day, breathing so deeply in and yet the required amount of energy not getting in. Life was harsh sometimes I prayed it would just end and save me the trauma.

Seconds,minutes,hours,days,weeks,months and years went by with different attacks and sleepless nights, sometimes they lasted for about a week but I trusted my mum that all would be well someday. I have never been so scared in my life after my mum broke the news to me that Aunty Rose-mary her best friend from university had died on her way to the hospital from an attack :( may her soul rest in peace. Attack after attack and by Gods grace I am still alive, my sisters used to be so scared begging me to explain how I can't enough oxygen despite my heavy breathing, what more could I explain it was what it was.

My last attack was the worst, I think the worst was saved for the last *whew*. It was back then in 2002 when I was in year 9 before Junior WAEC. I noticed my tracts were all blocked and I had to raise my chest up to breathe, I knew the time had come so I decided to miss night prep and stay back in hostel. That was too dangerous only me without a friend and an attack happened, no ventolin close by I ha d to crawl to the nurse's room a floor below mine, it took me 1hr for a 5mins trek in normal cases. I crawled and crawled till I reached and I can't remember what happened next but it was God that saw me through. Since then no major attack but in smoky places I still feel weird. I am glad to tell you I can sweep now, drink cold water and even sleep with the ac on :D

I don't think I have had any problem ever worse than this, I am so glad it is well with my soul. Good night.

Day17 - Something I Am PROUD Of

I can boast anywhere any day any time saying I had the best home training as a child. As a child of a military man you know rubbish can't be expected from you. I was brought up in a Godly fashion, obedient, willing to learn and a never giving up mentality.

I am proud of my parents for imbibing in me the above listed characteristics. I owe them a lot because without God and them I am a nobody. Right from the day I was born and wrapped in a cream quilt to the moment of typing this post they have been there for me. In spiritual, financial and even physical aid they have been helpful. I really need to sleep right now but I can go on and on. My parents are my most priceless possession #dontdull. Sleep tight fellas.

Day16 - Something I always think "What if...?!" About

Sorry this post is about a day late. It is actually dawning on me september is already here, I thought by this time I would have gotten a job. I don't want to rely on man who keeps telling me Ehi don't worry all is well. For Christ sakes my contract ends in twenty-five days time and I can't even see the tiniest shade of light that signifies the end of the tunnel.

The question "What If?!" Has started ringing a bell in my head, 3 new corpers in my department :s there is a God watching up there. But what if I really go back to my bed just like last year before NYSC started. Life just sucks not having a paid job or where to go 9 to 5pm. You can't just wake up and be looking for p to attend or wake up to read a novel, or wake up to watch your fan spin. Where there is a will there is a way. My future is bright all I need now is a little inner peace, I need to stop panicking.

The question what if?! Also comes to my mind every time. What if I actually lose my dad soon, God forbid. Being the only son am I matured enough to be the bread winner,can I also fend for myself alone. I know this is too sad in fact let me stop here before I start saying things that begin to scare people.

Day15 - My Zodia/Horoscope and If I think It Fits My Personality



Libra
September 23 - October 22

I have never read anything about horoscopes or zodiac signs, neither did I know the signs really describe the people that fall under them at least some not all. I am a Libran in the making (that’s if there is any word like that).
Libra is the seventh sign of the zodiac, and it’s at this point in the zodiac that we start to see a shift. While the first six signs of the zodiac focus on the individual, the last six focus on the individual's contact with others and with the world. Libras are first and foremost focused on others and how they relate to them. We can call this the sign of Partnership with a capital 'P' because these folks do not want to be alone! For a Libra, everything is better if it's done as a pair. Libras are good when paired up, too, since they epitomize balance, harmony and a sense of fair play. While they are true team players at work, their favorite partnership is at home: marriage. Libras feel most complete when they are coupled up with their lover, forever. This is so funny I guess that is why always want to be with the ladies.

It's the Scales that symbolize Libra, and just like that balancing mechanism wants to stay even, Libras want to be on an even keel. Think of the Scales of Justice and how they work at striking the right balance. Likewise, Libras are objective, just and want to do what's best for everyone. It's possible, though, that this penchant for fairness is for a different reason: Libras abhor conflict. The scales study every possible angle in the hopes of achieving peace and harmony, so much so that others may see them as fickle and indecisive. If that's what it takes to avoid a confrontation, that's fine with the Scales. The Libra-born are keen strategists, organizing groups with poise and getting the job done (in keeping with the Cardinal Quality assigned to this sign). Further, you can expect the Scales to be companionable, sociable folks.

Libra is ruled by Venus. In ancient Roman mythology, Venus was a smooth seductress who was at her best amid pleasurable excess. Well, Libras are certainly carrying the torch for her today. The Scales are cultured, refined and love beautiful things. Most of all, they love beautiful people, which is why Libras do so well at cocktail parties or at the theater, opera or ballet. Those born under this sign always have the right thing to say and know how to make others feel comfortable. Suave? You bet. Libras are so adept at charming conversation that they need to be mindful of overstepping their boundaries and appearing vain or gossipy (the Scales do love intrigue). When these folks are on their game, however, they are a pleasure to be with. Libras are artistic, stylish and enjoy creating a beautiful world. The converse of this is that bored Libras can become apathetic and lazy -- but they'll smile anyway. With all humility I can say I love beautiful people but the sad part is that I don’t know how to dance, so the ballet part they got me wrong, in as much as I talk too much I almost always know the right thing to say and make others comfortable *I wonder why you are eyeing me* blame God for allowing me to be born within this range of dates.

The element associated with Libra is Air, and that means reaching higher, specifically to the higher mind. Libras like to put their mind to good use, and enjoy communicating their thoughts to others. They like to use their smarts (and talk) to get to know others better -- yes, knowledge about people is where it's at for Libras. You can expect the Scales to make a fair argument, too, since they live by the principles of diplomacy and compromise. When this approach doesn't work, however, Libras are not above using their persuasive charms to get their way. Manipulative? Nah, Libras really are too nice for that. Plus, any end-runs that these folks use are usually to build themselves up, since the Scales can be easily deterred. Libras are polite and don't like to fight, far preferring to talk things through. Remember, these folks know how to communicate (they're Air) so they're bound to make their point. Libras don't get in a huff when faced with an opposing viewpoint. Rather, they take a deep breath and consider all the options in the spirit of cooperation. I communicate my thoughts to my friends and sisters that’s why people think I say a lot of rubbish meanwhile that is what I am thinking. I have tried being manipulative but failed
L I guess that is just who I am. I know I am not really caring but trust me I am super nice.

Libras at play may not be as energized as at work, if you call socializing work (and the Scales do). That's why exercise for Libras needs to have a social component to it, such as that found at a gym. Alternatively, Libras love the outdoors, so riding and biking can also prove fun. They also love the colors of the sunset sky, that melding of ivory, pink and light blue. In the game of love, Libras are a bundle of energy, romantic and loyal to the core. The Scales need to be on the lookout for their lower backs, though, which tend to shoulder any burdens they may be carrying. Hmmmmm so this is the reason I like walkabout, I cant just sit ma ass down in one place, always wanting to go out, thank God for my alter Reme who always poisons my mind to sit back sometimes.

The great strength of the Libra-born is their quest for fairness, peace and harmony. That the Scales are the great diplomats of the zodiac further helps their case. A beautiful journey this will be, thanks to the Libra's inimitable sense of style. You can hate us all you like its already too late for you to be a Libran and if you are one hi5 to you. To those who are not, make sure you try and get your children to be born in the range of dates :D

What I Wore Today

This post is late, @Etisalat_NG is to be blamed for poor network coverage. I wonder whether 3G services are by force. I am up and its just cock crow, robbers and my area they wouldn't free us. God pass them sha we still thank Him atleast Nigerian Police could help a bit.

I wish I was nude all day :D, I am still going to try Adam and Eve's stunt some day. Nothing special about what I wore today as it was an unofficial day. I wore my navy blue pair of boxers, khaki pants, white shirt, white ankle socks and a pair of white sneakers. I had to obey the clarion call, can't remember when last I heard about Clarion but she should be well lool.

Mid-day struck and I had so many errands to attend to and I don't like being seen as a corper, I actually took extra pair of clothes when I left the house. So I changed into my navy blue polo by ralph lauren shirt and blue denim jeans with my pair of ttdalk slippers. I got home by sun down and changed to house mode clothing, I suited up *jokes* was in only boxers and t shirt while I ironed my clothes for the month of September.

Day13 - My Opinion About My BODY and How I Feel About It

This 30 day challenge is hard I wouldn't lie, the topics spread across so many aspects of life but what can I do a deal is a deal. This post must continue.

Every morning when I wake up, immediately after easing myself I must take a look at the mirror to make sure my face is still on point. I hate pimples so I try as much as possible not to eat oily and canned foods. It really annoys me when I look at the mirror and my goaty aint grown but at the same time I don't like bumps gotten from shaving so I would rather say I am happy as a hairless man.

I checked my weight today at the hospital and good Lord 60.6kg *whew* I am back in the range of the sixties. I hate the fact that I am a feather weight it boils my heart but the more I try to eat the thinner I become so I have stopped trying. I think I have a major problem with my thin legs x_x, my sisters even call them toothpick legs, so I don't even bother trying to wear shorts even when I wear skinnies oooops my flat ass doesn't help but man has to me in fashion.

I am in love with my girly feet, I just believe guys with big legs shoes just never fit them. There is no shoe I have bought that has never fitted me :| that's a fact and I mostly always find my size :D in case you want to get me a pair of shoes I wear 41.5. I forgot to say I am in love with the shape of my head no matter how small you may think it is. The head is just normal not boxy and not big but the perfect shape. I know I am not a fine boy so I just like being fresh and keep a low cut, taking my hair down every 14 days.

I am thinking hard choi!!! Which other part of my body don't I like ehrmmmm okay that should be it. I am grateful to God for how I look I think I would still come this way in another life same height same shape of head, same face, same shoe size, there is a but I would come with bigger biceps and a well defined 6 pacs :D

Day12 - Five girls whom I find attractive

Is this really the topic?! I wish I could pass, a whole woman wrapper like me,your telling me to limit my crushes to only 5. What rubbish?! *jokes*.Anyway I am so sorry I can't write their names, so initials would do.

1. O.O
She just had to top the list even though I know she doesn't know where to place me in her life. I am just glad she believes in me. I love the way we connect even though sometimes I f**k up and don't live up to expectation. That her smile and soprano voice melts my heart any day any time and till today I still have a crush on her,I only wish #lipssealed, if wishes were really horses fools will ride, abeg I am already letting out too much info.

2. A.N
This female specie has known me the longest out of all my female friends. We have been kinda close since the mid-nineties but she only got to know I liked her sometime in the year 2000. I wonder why I still find her attractive even though she is now adding weight #weirdmuch I know girls don't like being called fat but she is really going to be fat :|.if you doubt look at her cheeks but she is damn pretty. Always forming busy and not having my time sometimes I wonder if she is the 1st to study pharmacy or she is going to be the last.

3. E.V
My cute canadian friend. We have never met but trust me soon, time will tell. She is so attractive even girls that have seen her picture on my phone would agree with me, her dimples are so deep #iblush. I miss our skyping days when I would rush from work just for a conversation, she is a definition of a real babe, down to earth and says things as they seem. She is very much inclined with her edo culture, pidgin speaking and canadian accent, loves sleeping, watching series and eating. Its a pity she has gone AWOL.

4. R.O
I remember our first conversation. That faithful day in GTB customer service when she asked for my challenge x_x I was speechless. Seems God just blessed her with all the qualities, height, face endowment, voice, you can imagine only her. You know I wouldn't carry last now I scoped her name tag and her left hand unfortunately for me she is married. But that didn't stop me I kept going to that bank each and everyday just to look at her face. But as God would have it she was transferred to another branch *sobs* all is well sha so many other fishes in the ocean.

5. R.O
Too bad she is also married but I can't stop shivering anytime she comes into my office or passes me on the corridor. I always let out that smile and give her a warm greeting, she also responds happily making my mind at rest. Saw her desktop background the other day with her baby daughter and husband I didn't know how to vex I was just like :) when the time is right my own cute wifey would come around Amen!!

Day11 - My Family

My family is the best family you can ever be born into #fact. If you like keep yimuing there, its your own problem. We are 7 in number, 4 babes and then myself, evenly sparsed. Two girls before me and two girls after me. It was painful while growing up without a brother but nowadays I tell myself if I had a twin brother I might have slaughtered him cause there can only be one of me *hehehehehe evil laugh*. Anyway the 3 big kids are the ones who really enjoyed childhood, let me put it this way I just believe people who saw the 80's and before are blessed. Nigeria was a better place in the 90's too, the days of amusement park, leisureland and the likes, trust me my footprints were all there.

My Parents
Mr and Mrs U.J Egbele loving set of parents, my dad who is named Jim is a retired naval officer who disciplined us well with his stern ways back in the days, my mum who is named Philo is on the quiet humble side. I remember sometime ago my friend asked me Ehi has your mum ever beaten you in your life....I laughed out loud, she is really that humble and meek but I can't remember her laying a finger on me. My dad just loves shopping or buying things even when he discovers he is buying 2 of the same he still continues, by the way he is the best cook in the house followed by my mum then myself #iwish. I respect my parents so much cause they are always ready to sacrifice their all but what I wonder atimes is the fact that they left me in gidi to be independent and fend for myself.

Biggest Sis
Her name is Otibho. Trust me you didn't get the pronunciation of the name, we have all tried and given up so let's leave it as OT. She doesn't live in Nigeria and I doubt if she is ever coming back she is a B). I remember when we were growing up we always fought for superiority asin first child and first son stuff but we are way over that now. She loves cooking and baking, I think she once went for a maggi kitchen competition but didn't make it to regionals she is that good. Special characteristic is laughing out loud with tears even though things are not that funny :|

Big Sis
Her name is Ose. I call her Mozo please don't ask why, she is my sister not yours. We have grown up together, same schools all throughout and at the moment we live together in gidi. She is never going to read this post cause she doesn't believe in blogs so I am going to say my mind. She annoys me so much that sometimes I wish we could start life again and I would come out from the womb before her *heheheheh* we understand each other now and she can be adorable when she wants to be. Special characteristics is screaming at the top of her voice on me and getting angry easily.

Lil Sis
Her name is Ofure. I call her fuskey, she is fun cause I think she is the closest to me but those were those days things have changed. She is sweet and adorable and always tries her best to take care of her only brother. But when she is not in the mood for anybody she starts her lies "my stomach is paining me" for heaven sakes since the 90's almost a dozen years now her stomach always pains her in the night smh continuously. Special characteristics grumbling like murtley the dog in the cartoon Dastardly and Murtley. She is also always sentimental about every move I make warning me Ehi this Ehi that. *phew*

Baby Sis
Her name is Oseme. I call Semzy :D, this girl used to be so stubborn that it pained me deep in my bone marrow but now we are all grown she has sense not to try a man again. I remember the last time I hit a female which involved me beating 3 of my sisters at the same time, she caused it. She is the smartest kid in our house and almost the luckiest as the baby of the house *hehehehe* I have no brother so I am the luckiest B). I know she would go places and I keep inspiring her. Forgot to include she is the best person to send on errands when fuskey starts her grumblestilskein. Special characteristics: she is just to intelligent damn it I don't know how she does it, I heard she just needs to be in class and without reading she would pass. She is also a sleepaholic once she starts sleeping to awake for devotion is a big problem.

Me
I call myself Reme. Some people call me Ehi some Hehi, some Ehireme(in a melodious way), some Remzy. I guess the blog is about me so I do not need to say much.

Day10 - Put Ur Music Player on Shuffle and Write down the first ten songs

*yawns* sorry about that I am extremely tired, not actually my fault I blame the jobless day I had in the office. These days are so funny I practically do nothing in the office except reading blogs or something not pertaining to work. The end time is here and surely I know God would help me get a job real soon.

I really had to cheat concerning this post because some of the songs I heard while on shuffle are not worth writing them down. So I actually played one of my eight playlists on shuffle and this was the result:

~ Iridescent (Transformers)- Linkin Park
~ I don't wanna care- Lupe Fiasco
~ Rain over me- Pit Bull ft Marc Anthony
~ Written in the stars- Tinie Tempah ft Eric Turner
~ Molowo noni- Samclef, ice prince,D'Prince
~ How to love- Lil Wayne
~ Drop the World- Lil Wayne ft Eminem
~ The show goes on- Lupe Fiasco
~ Cinderella man - Eminem
~ Man Down- Rihanna

Day9 - What I think about EDUCATION

The harder I try the further I am away from my target. I checked my weight today and I have moved from light weight to feather weight :(, while my sisters are eating up I am losing flesh. Today in church I was so restless, the hydrochloric acid in my stomach fed on the walls of my duodenum, my mind constantly couldn't concentrate on the words from the pastor. I have learnt my lesson always try to have 3 square meals a day before sunday service.

Education in the general sense is any act or experience that has a formative effect on the mind, character, or physical ability of an individual. What you are about reading is my own view so if you disagree keep that to yourself.

Education is of very high importance because I believe the elite rule the world. Let's keep it aside that the worlds 2nd richest man dropped out of school, that's a sign of luck or let's just leave it as fate. Today google the top elite men and women of our generation and you would discover they have an educational background. I hate when I see illiterates it weakens my heart and that is Nigeria's main corruption problem, too many dim dumb f**ks in power.

I am too weak to continue this post but I really think Education to a certain point is important. At least just get a school cert, english and understanding the ethics and ethos of life would take you far. I can't even wait to further my education, just some few minutes ago I was discussing with Jim Egbele about furthering my education and he seemed proud of me, countries I didn't even want to apply to he encouraged me because it just seems I am in a tunnel and I am closer to the part with light.

Education is stressful, it goes on and on, knowledge is life long, we all learn everyday. It just seems like we are never going to get to the end but trust me it is highly needed. Rome was not built in a day little by little it becomes harder but when you look at the past you shake your head and say it wasn't that hard. I have tried my possible best not to waste my parents money on me in any way, I owe them a lot that is why I put my almost best in all I do.

Hmmm that reminds me I wasn't born smart *now popping collar* I just remembered the days of carry 27th and 21st out of about 30 in nursery school, I was just a big mumu *smh*. My story changed in primary 1 when I hit my highest position of 3rd by pry 2 I was 1st,1st,1st, by 3 I was 1st 1st 1st, by 4 I was 2nd,2nd,2nd. By 5 I was 1st,2nd,2nd, best graduating student in maths,514/600 in common entrance. By year 7 I was 1st,1st,1st, year 8 2nd,2nd,2nd,God knows if I catch Aime I would slaughter him. It goes on by year 10 I was best in maths again, year 11 best in geography and ended up best graduating geography student again. I know in JAMB I was meant to get about 307 if they didn't cancel my center *yimu*. Anyway that's it started uni on a first class till I slid away from there it was probably not meant for me but I am proud of my CGPA.

I know my haters are out there pondering what's wrong with this proud boy I know your educational background is better but sometimes a man has got to brag. I am not the brightest of students not even in my house my 2 younger sisters especially the youngest I think they stole all the grey matter in my head plus theirs, they are geniuses.

I am tired of typing I am not even in the best of moods cause I 8 2 be an arsenal fan right now.

Day8 - What I ate Today

Its almost 2130hours and I can say today has not been one of the best of my days. I got back late from a vigil last night barely had 4hours of sleep and I was back on my feet doing my weekend cleaning of both my room and the parlour.

Midday struck and I had toasted bread with orange juice as my first meal of the day while I observed the weather, I needed the sun at its peak before setting out to spray my car. I practically spent the whole day at the mechanic's. Etisalat my service provider did not help matters, twitter,bbm,mails nothing was working just me and DJ Bigshoe's mix.

I actually thought the work was a lil job but panel beating and spraying took the whole day before I could blink it was sun down, I had not eaten lunch and I don't do them mama-put. I just saw a girl selling boiled groundnut and I made my fastest move. The work was complete and I was free to go home and eat.

Got home this night and my elder sister was asleep, I don't know if she was observing siesta non of my business. Laziness took control of my body so I did not bother cooking anything. Right now I am seated in my parlour soaking ijebu garri and watching 2010 award winning movie "The Hurt Locker", great stuff I tell you. I know I would sleep and wake up in search of food but all I can say for now is God dey!!

Day7 - Five Pet Peeves

Yipeeee!!!!! Day 7 is here, actually thought I would never make it this far. Anyway no time for side talks straight to business, am about to go in for a movie so its its going to be really short.
Pet peeves 8-| am actually rolling my eyes. I just hope you know the meaning anyway google is always your friend. It actually means specific behaviours of someone close such as a spouse, pet peeves may actually seem acceptable to others.

1. Chimneys
I hate chimneys :|. I call people that smoke chimneys, they disgust the last bit of me. Please don't crucify me yet, for a guy to smoke no wahala, I have many chimneys as ma close friends but when you are a girl and try it that's it I lose my faith in you it is just too irresponsible of you no matter how hawt you are you are off my damn list. By the way I don't smoke, neva tasted one may never taste one :D

2. Tattoos and Piercings
Not as bad as I think they are, in fact I like a few. Its not bad having tattoos or nose piercings or belly button holes or even 4 earring holes. The part I hate is when the tattoos are so razz I mean danfo conductor kinda tattoos that are so irritating then your off my list. Forgot to add if you have 4 earring holes and wear 4 earrings don't even come near me :|

3. Pots
I think its spelt ports or pots. Anyone abeg, you know what I am talking about. When alcohol fills your belly and you now walk like a pregnant man with your front shooting out that's the definition. My friend and I started a research and noticed girls of nowadays don't want to leave the pots for the men even when they are not pregnant. Its disheartening a pretty young lady having pots!!! Like WTH. Try regular sit ups and exercises to keep you in shape, please and leave it for we the men. Don't worry I am too skinny for pots.

4. Too Much asking
I am not your father oo!! Please stop all this buy me this buy me that ahn ahn it is too much my salary is not that big neither are we dating. Before you ask me, let me in my romantic mood make the offer not you pouring it all down on me. I know I am too nice that doesn't mean take advantage of me. Wish I could swear I love down to earth girls. Some of them imagine been on the other side and offer me gifts and all. I respect you cause when you do that I revenge.

5. Punctuality
Don't worry I have leaved with girls all my life, they are never just punctual. I love giving girls an hour extra but come latter than 60mins and it turns me off. Its in their genes to be late *now screaming why?!!!* on sundays my lil sister starts her makeup and we are all going late for sunday school, on weekdays my elder sister starts straightening her hair and I don't get a good parking space at work that day.

Got to get back to my movie the Rise of the planets of apes :D
P.s don't mind the spelling errors.

Day6 - My views on MainStream Music

Mainstream is generally the common current thought of the majority. Mainstream music denotes music that is familiar and unthreatening to the masses....(Wiki helped with this)

I am the wrongest person to ask about music I would get the grade after F9 if I was to take a test on it. I started listening to music in my 1st year of the university(2006) thanks to my roomie and closest friend who flooded my head with different rock songs especially coldplay.

For me any kind of music goes mainstream or no mainstream but it is funny how a song comes out no matter how useless the contents it spreads like wild fire and becomes a hit-track ie Oliver by Dbanj. I have no problem with mainstream music as far as it is accepted by the society. Let's try and break it down, a song is released and it doesn't to make sense but all the stations on the radio keep playing it, all the clubs you go you hear it, its almost impossible for you not to whistle it or try to sing it after hearing it over and over again.

Let me use myself as an example I love Lady Gaga's songs (yes I said it and I am not the anti-christ), the way she sings just gets me going I know I am beginning to sound occultic but to me once I block my ears and hear her ish m in a world of my own, I feel at ease no matter who has hurt me or broken my heart :D

I know I digressed from my topic of the day but I tried naa, who am I to criticise what the public likes. That's it am out of here but before I go I think Nigerians are really doing good stuff in the music industry we are coming up. Shout out to Mo hits, Choc boiz, Tu Baba and the rest you know yourselves.

Day5 - Things I Want To Say To An Ex

I kept wishing this day wouldn't come, I mean to blog about this topic because to me its not just right let the past remain history. Damn this my running nose, its making me think of a lot of bullshit.

I have been privileged to be a ladies man *now popping collar* I really wish in my silly mind. I have had more than one girlfriend and only God knows where this post can land me tomorrow so if your one of my ex's and you come across this do not take offence, I am going to try my best not to be too particular about anybody so here it goes:

In Reme mode *Reme is my alter ego* each and everyone of you can come and kiss my black hairy a** I don't give two about any of you, that's life for you it sucks so badly, you got me used and dumped me like a menstrual rag may you not find a husband better than me. x__+

Let's rewind and imagine Reme never existed... Now this is Ehi talking. You all taught me how to love and be loved, though we had moments that couldn't last forever it was worthwhile with each and everyone of you. I am the happiest person on earth as we still remain friends. Without you I might still have been in my bubble(a world of my own), shy and stupid, you gave me the courage to walk up to any girl in the world no matter how hawt and speak my mind even though I still jonz and don't make that move.

Our relationship mattered a lot, even when we split and I thought I would never be able to get over each of you and move on God saw me through. Our love moments, our arguing moments they still cross my mind , I am glad that whenever our paths cross I can still be comfortable with you, crack jokes even slap and pull your cheeks as far as your not with a ring on your left hand finger and not with your kids. Its still funny how I picked you all out of the flock of existing girls, its even funnier how I asked you out because believe me that's the hardest part for me.

Time for Ehireme to say his part (Ehireme is the combination of both but very proud). I know when you see me you still have that lil crush is your heart and your mind whispers to you I am proud I dated that young responsible man I wish we could go back in time and correct our errors and live happily ever after. Yimu to all of you.
The End

It wasn't that bad, I feel like shedding tears, didn't know what to write at first but as I started thoughts of each and every one of them kept flooding my mind, I guess they are forever part of me. My prayer for them is that they meet the flesh of their flesh and bone of their bone who is better of than me. The truth about my relationships is that they keep me confined to one woman, but outside relationships I just keep flirting and crushing on different ladies. I am a woman wrapper right?!

Day3 - A BooK I Love

I am no longer the reading type. Laziness!! you can't blame me, these days its hard to get home and still have time to read....in my opinion blackberries have ruined the world in a way, each time I get home I have to reply the numerous pings and tweets as a celeb *winks*and that is how time slips away.

I was privileged to go to a good school where we were forced to read a book a week and summarize by weekend. It did not stop there I ended up becoming the library prefect. I used to love novels I think I got it from my first sister, but actually those days I was not chasing girls or doing something silly, I occupied myself by reading. I can boast of reading about 20 novels in my lifetime and I know it is few compared to the library of books others have read. Ranging from the action filled Robert Ludlum to Mafia by Mario Puzo to law by John Grisham, God bless Sydney Sheldon and may his soul rest in peace, I can't believe I almost finished all his collection about 4 left I really need to get back to reading :).

The book I love the most is "If Tomorrow Comes" I can read that book again and again it was written by Sydney Sheldon. I can't really remember a lot about it but it was BaD trust me, in case you have not read it holla I would personally get a copy for you. It was about a young lady who was set up and taken to prison, she planned her very own escape just like scofield of prison-break sorry to break your heart she never got to escape but was freed I think, I just hope I am right.

The suspense was mad, she was out for vengeance to get the people that threw her into jail. She became a con-artist from washing of real dollar bill notes to playing chess with the two best in the world at the same time to stealing of precious stones from I think the museum I do not want to lie. There was this cop that was on her trail he chased her from half of the book to the very last page. The last scene as I played it in my head while I read was about money or she stole from a bank, just imagine the movie "Italian Job" that was how it was. I don't think there is any point writing about this book again I need my copy :| #thatisall

I just hope someday I get my reading mojo back, I miss the good old days :(. Year 11 days in hi-school were fun, I read newspapers, mags, dictionaries I wonder what went wrong. It is well with my soul.

Day2- Something I Feel Strongly About

I parked on the gutter instead of on the road, I have no idea why I did that. It was time to leave, Joel the tailor told me to be careful that I didn't park the car well. I replied don't bother yourself I am the best driver I know in time....this is all I remember because it was only a dream.

This morning everything just went wrong, if I had turned back when trying to reverse I might have avoided it, if I didn't go back to lock the door I might have avoided it, if she didn't ask for help with the children's drinks I might have avoided it, if I listened to my instincts and not agreed to drive us to church I might have avoided it, if I didn't have to change my shirt I might have avoided it, if I slept earlier than 2am I might have avoided it....Ehi!!!! *in Ose's voice* are you blind didn't you see the gate, I hit my brakes but it was too late my very own first accident in my house since 2005. My whole back bumper was out 0_0.

We were able to fix it up after 20minutes of hustling and still get to church in time. If only my mind was on the service, things might have been better off, my mind was on my car the fixing and all. We set out to ogudu, top speed forgetting my bumper wasn't too good. I guess you know what happened next my bumper flew out hanging and dragging on the road. We had to park and attach it back. Its in a bad shape now, it has been screwed up by Atiku my mechanic but needs to be sprayed. Daddy would be back by midweek and the car has to be in good shape.

This was not meant to be my post for the day but at the moment this is what I feel strongly about :|

Day1- Five Ways To Win My Heart

*clapping hands* you are all welcome to my very own #30DayChallenge. In as much as I am not in the mood to write a promise is a promise. I wish I heeded to my inner man when I got up by cock crow this morning to drop this post, no stubborn me wanted a latter time now my ex has added to my frustration by going two goals down. Anyway Wenger will sought his problems.

I am very much scared of this topic because I don't know who is going to read it, my future wife may just stubble on it someday but we r who we are so here it goes.

1. Looks
2. Sense of Humour
3. Easy going
4. Endurance
5. Appreciation

Looks
I guess everybody loves a good looking girl or lady. M the worst at describing people but trust me that gorgeous look, that smile, awwww m actually blushing seeing her face deep down in my mind. Anyway she has to be fresh and I mean fresh, all that figure 8 ish doesn't really bother but she shouldn't be fat oo just normal not to big someone that can fit my size as a skinny dude. I have fallen for so many girls but they have really never gotten to my heart cause one wrong move turns me off n makes me lose interest yes your allowed to call me almost perfect at this moment. This one is becoming to long unto the next...

Sense of humour
Asin seriously, I don't think I am a clown sometimes I just say whatever comes to my brain without processing and I hear or read a buhahahahahahah while my face is like huh?! Or :|. To get to my heart your sense of humour has to be reasonable like when I say laugh you must laugh just kidding all I want is for a reasonable conversation. I can't be talking to you and you would be looking at me like a muhu trust me I don't know the meaning of that word. I hate dull girls, I know I am a talkative and I overshadow those I have conversations with but really when its time to listen I do.

Easy Going
I hate complications, secrets and the likes. What is worth doing is worth doing well, you just need to be easy going. Yes she is allowed to form hawt babe if she is really worth it. But don't go forming when you don't even have up to half of what it takes.

Endurance
I know myself rite, I have a lot of bullshit, sometimes my brain sparks and my alter ego resurrects and hmmmmm buyaga I evolve. So if you can tolerate and endure that till your last breath then my heart is solely yours. I am not scaring or driving future prospects away m not that mean I just have my bad days and when those days come you would know cause I wouldn't just be in anybody's mood.

Appreciation
I am really going to misyarn here cause I am tired of typing. For goodness sakes its almost midnight and I am still up. Okay here it goes you have to appreciate me for who I am ehrmmm okay let me describe myself I am an ugly lanky boy who just talks too much.....yes I just said that :| and I mean it so if you don't like me that way well we are about 6billion people on the surface of the earth I can always move on to the next feminine specie.

I hope I get myself together in the cause of this...time will tell don't forget stay tuned for the remaining 29, a lot of shocking and exciting topics you don't want to miss.

30 day Writing Challenge

I don't even know where to start from but a hundred and two days away wasn't easy. I missed you all and I have a few reasons for leaving without notice. Trust me laziness is a female dog (figure that out), I have not been busy let me blame my lack of posts on my shyness, I became shy to write, Ehi please be serious!!! That's Reme my alter ego talking to me, we just met a few months back don't worry that story is for another day.

So much has happened in my life, don't worry I can't jump from a moving bus to another yet so the stories are piled up somewhere for future posts let's just say I was on a Mission-get-faT I can't even boast of adding 3pounds ooops 3kg to my skinny body. Enough of the beating around the bush, she explained to me that I was on a "writer's block" it means not having the urge or passion to write, lack of motivation, please google it for clarification.

I hope I am back for good but I need my mojo back yes I said it. I have been reading a lot of blogs and I came across a 30-day challenge. Let me explain quickly my bed is whispering my name already, 30 topics that will run through 30 days meaning you are stuck with me for the next 30 days trust me some days are going to be damn boring, and I didn't pick the topics mind you, she did!! I have to procrastinate again I hope to start on saturday the 20th by Gods grace.

A big thank you to all those who kept checking and encouraging me to write again despite the negative answers like remsville.blogspot is dead from me. Without you this would have stopped existing....okay enough of the thank you speech am off see you soon. *yawns*

*whew*

This journey get as e be. I am under intense stress atm, I have rained so many curses on God knows who, of course this useless traffic. I have been in it for the past four hours. You think you have been in traffic before, hold it *dont mention 3rd mainland traffic or ajah traffic* I can slap you from here if you try it. When I mean dead I mean dead.

This is the worst road trip I have encountered since the late 80's I was conceived. I have managed to be in a couple of road trips and trust me its fun depending on your movement. I have travelled in a military convoy from gidi to abuja, it was fun, at least my old man was there. Hehehe military men have an insane side, they beat up a cab driver all because he almost brushed one of the cars, in fact remaining small na to handcuff him and carry to somewhere that wouldn't have been funny. I have travelled from gidi to ife in a chevron convoy 80km/hr too much swag.

Movement occurs after every 20minutes about 7phases of intense traffic with so many trailers on the gullified road. Benin-Ore road is really in a state of macabre dance take a trip and you may hate your life forever, its really that bad. Slowly and surely we shall get there, I am really in need of ice-block to calm this head-ache but I cannot trust anyone on this road again. An elderly woman just sold Hob Nobs to me that had expired some years ago *i am not in the mood of swearing for her* trust me no one messes with a benin boy. This traffic seems un-ending, time to take a bow, ma second battery is almost gone.

Finally I can see "welcome to igbenedion university" I am irritated but I thank God for bringing me this far, and also etisalat for delivering ma pings and messages in real time!!!

Na so we see aM

OMG!!! This silly alarm never seizes to frustrate me. I wonder why sometimes it just always remembers to disturb a hard earned dream. I am so weak and weary, my body hurts me everyday all because I wanted a bigger bed, I dismantled my bed frame and now sleep on the floor *shaking my hed*. Anyway that is not why we are here, memories of yesterday keep flashing back not just because of the most useless film "Sucker Punch" that I saw but because I was with her. I looked her in her eyes and my mind travelled back to that very Tuesday in June 2010, the day we first met under the rain, heheheh "tongue out" that story is for the future when we get married *ilike to whyne myself sha" dreams come true jare but the truth is there are some people you will forever have a soft spot for.

It seems too early for all these, people jogging, people hustling, people already arguing with conductor for change, people hawking haba!!! Las gidi I will miss you there is never a place like home. Enroute Edo state :| I am not really prepared for this, I hate changing my environment, I don't mean changing like going to NY or ATL I mean inter-state travelling within Naija, I even hate going to Abuja irrespective of my parents giving me a royal treatment I am fine and love my hood. If I stand my ground and say Reme aint going to Edo all those pep talks about me being a man and some day I will go back to the village and settle down, I am not interested in such traditional ish!!! If I have my way and I pray I do have it nothing like trad wedding #notime if you like hate me I am just being me we live in the jet age.

What's on my mind?! So much is there, trying to have a sneak peak of the future, trust me it hurts ma brain cells, lets just leave it at its going to be a mystery. Engr Reme that's the name on the wedding program, I am one of the grooms men chai!!! Never done such never imagined doing it. I believe it took more than jazz for me to agree to be part of this wedding. We all try something new once in our lives. I will get back to this we have barely even started this God knows how many hours journey and my phone battery has 3.5 bars of life *angry smiley I h8 this damn fone*. Stretches and cracks knuckles, hold on tight I will be back in a few....

03.03

I wonder why I feel so much pain, my knees hurt, my eyes are heavy, my waist joint seems to be out of place. Wait!! What's today's date?! *now cleaning my eyes*, how did I wake up in my Crane house wear shirt and shorts and why am I in such footwear but really the calender says 03 March and today is "Thursday". I can hardly see the year, I feel so odd and it seems I have been on ma knees for the last 3-4hours and I can also bet this is Mrs Kayode's office the Vice Principal Admin.

My mind is getting clearer by the second, I had a bit of sleep last night because of my physics test. Right now I feel like shit, my 6 years of being a saint in this school has just been ruined. I regret all my acts, if only I had listened to my inner man, I lost my temper, I lost my cool, my head feels outa my body because I doubt if I used it to think before all my actions.

1330hours: I was seated in the physics lab working on my C.A test when I heard a deep but small voice. It was Carl asking me for the value of G (the earth's gravitational force which is equal to 6point something multiplied by 10 raised to power 31), you can now applaud me for that. At first I didn't want to answer him but he was persistent so I told him but unfortunately for me Mr Solabi was passing by.

Hegbele *in thick yoruba H factor accent* go and submit your note, you were cheating, I am sorry sir I wasn't cheating he asked for the value of G and I told him.'I repeat go and submit' and without an atom of thought I threw my 40leaves note at the man on the table and walked out straight into my class year 12 yellow. I am vibrating really badly and he walks up to me to go back and pick up my note, I hesitate for about 5mins, when I can no longer stand my classmates begging and all that ish that 'we re in our finals I go back angrily to pick it up meanwhile my girlfriend Seun is busy crying her eyes out for my deeds in the physics lab but why?!

With boiling anger, I walk straight to the hostel despite the fact that school hadn't ended. I didn't even bother answering Mallam Akhmed the maiguard at the hostel gate. Straight to my bed and I am pondering on the 0/10 I am going to get in my well read for test. We are having eba for lunch so I don't even bother going to the dinning hall. Before I can blink I hear my name and its time for sports. I jump down from my double-decker bed grab my red nike footie and head to the bathroom to wash my face.

Two juniors abusing their mothers but I hear only the year 7 student, so I wash my face I don't care about their explanations because I want to believe only what I heard initially, I tell him to ride okada "its a kind of punishment" and off I go out of the hostel. Getting back from sports I get into my room and see year 10 boys eating contraband, I tell them to lie bare chested on the cold floor and I take off for a quick shower. Getting back to my room Ita is not participating in the punishment because he feels he is too big, ok Ita kneel down and he does it on one knee. Without thinking I grab my belt like a Samurai and give him a slash on his back, he stands with fury on his way to report but with a peaceable heart I try to make peace, I grab his left hand he forces himself free but of course with some flesh missing due to my witchy long nails.

Everything seems so odd, everywhere I take a step there is one mistake or a bit of trouble waiting for me I wonder why?! I am now in my crane house wear heading to the library to open it for final year students to read for their exams (I am library prefect by the way). I have not even left the hostel before I find out the matron is looking for me, I ignore and head for the library but my geography teacher Mr Akintade interrupts me on the way that I am needed in the VP admin's office asap....finally everything is taking shape at least I know how I found myself kneeling down there.

Kneel down and obey before complain, one of the most useless statements I have ever heard of. It took about 4 teachers and the matron who I still believe is a witch to bring me down like Goliath to my damn knees. They claim I almost got the year 7 student dead due to the fact that he was in an okada mode for hours, before they even finish talking Ita comes with his bleeding hand and slashed back. I am guilty as charged, there is no turning back from this, I have to face the consequences. I was on my knees, I was thinking hard, hurting my head trying to take the wheels of time back. This is forever my worst day cause I believe there can never be another of such I will probably kill myself if it happens again.

Wait!! What's today's date?! *now cleaning my eyes*, how did I wake up in my crane house wear shirt and shorts, why am I wearing trekkers but really the calender says 03 march and today is also a "Thursday". Wow how time flies, today is actually 03 March and its also thursday but there is a but I am 6years in the future!!

N.B This is non-fiction and all names have been changed due to personal reasons and victimisation of my cast. No grudges or malice, it is just an epic moment from the sands of time. Happy New Month readers.

♥ ♥ ♥

Wow its just like yesterday the year started and we are already in February my worst month of the year, don't worry I will get back to that. Happy new month to all ma fellow readers that's if you people still read, I know it haff tayed since I last blogged but ma people e no easy o.

Time to stop beating around the bush, this is the month of ♥ and the colour red. I am sure you all know what I am talking about "ST VALENTINE'S DAY" otherwise known as vals day for short. Back to why I hate this month, before I forget this is going to be my first time out of school celebrating dat dreaded day (as a graduate somethin), wow I don't even have a girlfriend OMG I am free *nau kneeling down and sayin thank you Lord*.

I have not still mentioned why I hate the month, don't worry I am doing it on purpose but kilode?? Yu suppose know y nau haba!! Anyway let me spill it *nau covering ma face* it is when Ehi's mumu mode is turned on to above 100% chai life is not fair, see as I dey abuse myself. I always spend above the budget which is not just right thank God my eyes are cleared now. All those days of buying perfume and teddy bears are over....ehrmmm sorry not over like that asin they are on pause till further notice.

But Naija gurls sef the fact remains that our skins are black what goes on in the white world is not a must it happens in our side. Flowers for vals, teddy for vals, all complete rubbish and waste of money please don't crucify me, this is strictly Reme's point of view. The truth is dat valentine is not all about the gifts and the red colour, or the continental meals its a time to share ♥ and be closer to your girl or man.

But Nigerians again I say we are difficult people to understand, as February starts the girls start acting a little nicer to their man friends just because they want to be val'd meanwhile on the mens side as January ends excuses start coming up,they start acting harsh, spring up #dead arguements just to avoid that day. The truth is that we should just be all normal I am not saying we shouldn't buy gifts. Please buy with sense, I know some stubborn readers we still go and buy to over impress with a girl that may not be there tomorrow.

I am so relieved sad a bit, nobody to spend on hahahaha *evil laff* I shall spend on maself good idea not done that for a while now. But deep down inside me I wish I had someone despite hating the month of ♥ , just someone to care for and all, don't ask me I have so many female friends but....I leave it as "but" I just know the right person will come some day "Time will Tell".

I am sure you wouldn't believe I am in the office right nau but kini? Man gats rest. Office work has been good, finally plotted my first oil well for exxon mobil (its an old one) given to me as an assignment or will I say practice work. I am so glad things are going the way they are meant to but I am a bit ☹ my colleague Femi was transferred to Mobil to do client work for the remaining 7months of NYSC wish it was me, I guess God has a purpose for everything. It just seems the work in oil servicing companies is just too much compared to the payslip with the rate at which I hear clicks of a mouse every second. They are always busy its a screen-click life we live here. I don tire too much gossip for this post. I leave you with this "You never know how the system operates until you are in it".

N.B: in case you want to val me I wouldn't mind an apple product asin macbook/ipad/iphone/itouch any of them will do *winks*
