It's supposed to be a wild bird's nest and I must say it's my most challenging work to date.<br /><br />I've been doing a lot of drawings over the past month and a half. 3 portrait commissions to be precise and still I'm not close to Armin, though I'd like to compare my latest piece with one of his...hehehe. He inspires me a lot and I hope to meet him someday.<br /><br />It's 2:24am and thanks to the afternoon nap, I'm not feeling too sleepy but I'll have to stop here before I start on about my insomnic post med school days (story for another day).<br /><br />Keep you posted on the drawing.<br /><br />Cheerio!!!

I wish I were like one of the wise men, surely they knew a lot to be referred to as the wise men. If only I knew everything in this books. I looked at the books scattered everywhere.<br /><br /><br />I was begining to feel sleepy so I walked over to the fridge to get my antedote for sleep. Ice cold water, it worked everytime; but not this time, my eyes kept closing as I tried to keep from continuously nodding.<br /><br /><br />I finally gave in, hopefully I'd dream of beautiful things and who knows probably some inspiration for how to win in the battle starting tomorrow.Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-13499533116696636942010-10-14T19:35:00.001-07:002010-10-14T19:35:18.817-07:002nd Coming... or is it the 3rd?Well, I'll just skip the welcome back speech and cut to the chase. A lot has happened since my last time on blogville. I grew older, found love, rounding up college, lost time to do a lot of stuffs like draw and write.<br /><br />I would not exactly say I'm back for keeps but I cud at least say I'll be seen more often than before. Naturally I would have lost all my blogville friends due to the break in transmission but I believe anywhere is a good place to start.<br /><br />We recently celebrated our 50th anniversary and I am yet to air my views on that, so if you're reading this, you may want to check back. Also my birthday is in 3 days. Happy birthday and yes, I've started receiving gifts, cheques and cash too :D.<br /><br />I guess that's all for now. It's 3:40am here and my twisted circirdian rhythmn just reminded me I should close my eyes for some hours, so I'm off. Good morning.Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-1251983179648585322009-09-17T15:11:00.001-07:002009-09-17T15:17:23.622-07:00RELOADEDHere's welcoming me back to blogville, I've been away for so long but now I'm BACK!. So it's not in an explosive way per se but it's a sort of revolution towards better things.<br /> <br />A lot has happened since I was away. I should say I took the time off to heal n heal I did; plus I've put myself together, more focused, rebranded, refurbished, renovated, in fact any re- word U can think of apart from retarded.<br /> <br />Untitled got titled, (Blind date) but was put on hold for a while (part of the healing process). PLENTI is the Hottest thing around now and should be hitting the cyberwaves soon, so keep your fingers crossed.<br /><br />I've missed Blogville and hope to keep up this flow and energy, so help me God.Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-32851483937124571412008-12-23T10:15:00.000-08:002008-12-23T10:23:08.064-08:00Old School?What happened to the walks in the park, along the beach, the picnics, going to the movies; the things which strengthen the bond of love and friendship.<br />The hard copy pic of a loved one used to be the pride of the other. These days all you need is a camera phone with Bluetooth, or better still MMS so you don’t even get to see the person at all. Its technology and trust me its good; You probably don’t even have to go on real dates. Hey! One could just hook up online and go on a cyberdate. OK, that’s a word that’s been around for a while but its gradually taking on a new dimension/definition. By this, all you need do is both have internet connection and an optional webcam to judge expression and stuff like that and then off you go to a pre-arranged site, look around, play a game or two, buy her/him stuff online. Very soon we’ll probably be eating lunch and dinner online…OK, just kidding.<br /><br />Again, its all technology, but would take over our real lives soon. With a GPRS enabled phone, you can stay online 24hours a day and without real efforts, relationships are fostered and sometimes crash completely in a short time due to a false start; the hood of lies and deceit the internet offers. One can assume any identity online and to a large extent get away with it. This all gets me thinking; in a couple more years what would the human be?<br /><br />Reminds me of a movie that Sylvester Stallone starred in where at the time everything had gone cyber. Cyber touch, cyber kiss, cyber hug, cyber sex! There could be no physical contact for fear of contamination. It’s already started. You could wink at someone online these days, flirt, hug, kiss, poke etc. <br /><br />Now what’s our world turning to? If you ask me, I’d say one big simulation. We’re gradually becoming robots and walking computers; all we need is the right command. The right IM, SMS can elicit a response that hitherto could only have been imagined. Someone once told me that there are three things with are utterly different from one another; an edited SMS, a phone call to say what it is, and actually saying it in person; and I would like to add a fourth; the sincerity when saying it in person. (Although there isn’t a scale to judge this).<br /><br />I know all this may sound old school and like a writing from the 80’s but I think I’m an advocate to proper communication in fostering any relationship and not the quick fix, our world offers today.<br /><br />Uhmmm…think about it.Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-31374555961696380862008-11-19T08:42:00.000-08:002008-11-19T08:55:34.177-08:00Excerpts Untitled - 1Okay so I said I was going to put up excerpts of my book "untitled". I'll be putting up more from time to time, healthy criticisms would be highly appreciated as I'm just discovering I could put things to paper. Unhealthy criticisms however should be shoved under the rug ;).<br /><br />I've never done anything like this so I don't know if it has a procedure; an introduction, maybe a few preceeding words to usher it in so I'll just dump it like so. Here goes...<br /><br /><br />“Would it be okay to call you sometime, do you think that would be stepping out of the blind?” I asked. There was a long pause and then she replied “no problem”. It didn’t fully answer the question. It wasn’t a yes of no. I guess I’ll have to take that for a yes, I thought to myself.<br />Well, It all began one evening. I walked into the cybercafé, I’d just finished one of my hectic assessments, a disguised name for some really tough exams that we had to write at close intervals almost every month and some even closer. The cybercafé was packed full, it was almost always like this, being the school café, that was expected and more so now that the final year students were preparing their projects. I managed to find an empty system and logged in, if only one of my pals would be online…maybe Gilbert, we’d been chat pals for a while now, he was a Nigerian residing in the far East, a lively fellow who could keep up a chat, we also had some things in common, he however wasn’t online today; liljay (another of my chat pals residing in the U.S.) was on though, but she was always busy and would drop a line or two once in a while. That wasn’t what I needed now, today was a relatively free day and my free days were quite few and far between these days so I wasn’t going to spend my time doing per minute chatting.<br /><br />I spotted two girls to my left, they seemed to be researching stuff but once in a while a ypager window would come up; someone was obviously chatting. One of them was standing by the other one whom I guessed was doing the chatting; she was fair complexioned wore a light coloured dress, didn’t take in much detail because I didn’t want to be caught staring, the other was on the dark side, hair done in a ponytail with a dark top and a pair of jeans, he feet were clad in a pair of slippers. Didn’t know who was chatting and didn’t actually care, I was just bored and needed to chat with someone, I managed to get an ID and sent an IM pronto and a reply came in shortly and thus started the whole process. We were supposed to play a game; series of questions, one of which was to describe oneself in just three words, physical attributes excluded; we chatted for a while, I refused to divulge info, wanted it to be a blind chat not clouded with physicality. The cybercafé usually closed by 6pm, I had a short while to go so I decided to end on a high; added her and asked her to do same; she was still trying to get some info but I couldn’t just risk discovery…well not yet. She added me, I took that as a good sign and logged out.<br /><br />Days passed and I would occasionally stumble upon an offline which I replied. This continued for a while until I got hooked onto mobile (she was already on) so it just made communication a lot easier, we could now chat when I was in class, driving home from school, in the hospital, in the loo, everywhere! She made a really good chat mate too, we talked about a lot of things; how our days went, she was a Libran too; she loved creativity just like I did, we both drew, though she said she didn’t draw too well, she aspired to own her own clothing line someday (she loved fashion designing), I loved art and was on my way to owning my own art gallery. Our views on religion were also similar, we both didn’t feel spiritually lifted in our current places of worship…she was a Catholic and I attended a Sabbath church I was born into, I was comfortable with the whole Sabbath worship but there were some doctrinal issues I wasn’t comfortable with. We spoke about our struggles to stay close to God and still not disappoint man,…our parents. So you see, we had a lot in common.<br /><br />One day out of the blues, during one of our chat sessions she pops out a question; “I’ve been longing to ask you this,…am I someday going to read about myself in your blog or in one of your books?” to which I replied that she was one hell of a smart girl. I’d told her that a couple of times before and not just as a compliment, she had this intuitive personality same as I did, but hey! I wasn’t surprised we were both Librans...(<em>to be continued</em>) <br /><br /><br /><br />So,...this is the begining of what would possibly someday come to be known as "Diary of so and so",...maybe "confessions of a something-something"...lol. LIke I said earlier healthy contributions would be welcome.<br /><br />Got up to 10more of these in the series, so keep looking...the story gets more interesting. ;)Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-49355492141704965212008-11-10T08:36:00.000-08:002008-11-10T08:52:42.631-08:00Good TimesMy life used to be much more fun. Me Ke! That used to hang out with my boys – “the chappies” after school scoping the girls as they passed along the corridor. Caught a pretty flasher once…wouldn’t say she did it intentionally but in trying to adjust her tank top, she completely pulled it off her bare boobs and the babe yellow die!, so imagine. Picture one unique murafucker laughing his head off in the full glare of everyone. Me I just maintain, gentle dude like me. Those were the days.<br /><br />I remember skipping out of school on several occasions during my first year to go see my chic who hadn’t gotten in by then, almost got caught one day by her uncle who came home unexpectedly to pick up something he had forgotten. Fast guy (Me) sneaked up the stairs on cue and landed in an unknown bedroom, later known (my chic’s). We no do anything O! na children play we dey play…lol. Remember my results being so bad that semester, it could almost pass for a “DE-certificate” with the number of D’s and E’s I amassed.<br />Got my first murafucking kiss during these fun times, same chic, different location…computer school at same uncle’s computer firm (story for another day).<br /><br />Even the school environment was heated up in those days. Kpa! Kpa! Gun shot, everybody don scatter Eke & Viki boys lighting the place up with an early “go home” alarm. Na so one girl jump from 3 story building break leg; saw her recently, we just laughed about it (wasn’t the least bit funny then though).<br /><br />So you see, activity was at every corner not until I entered murafucking, overhyped, but good old Medicine. “Just like one of those monopoly false moves and bam!; Go to Jail!, Move directly to jail, do not pass GO do not collect E200” equivalent of “Go directly through Medicine, do not look at the chics, do not sneak out of school, don’t hang with the guys, don’t even have time for yourself, what the fuck are you doing online”. Get the pic now? Anyways got me a short time to roll outta the programme in style. Well God dey.Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-48839237573463453352008-10-16T17:26:00.001-07:002008-10-16T17:31:46.694-07:00It's my Birthday (17th October 2008)So it is. What can I say, looking back,...well I've come quite some way since d sametime last year. Not too impressed in some aspects but for me a time like this is of utmost importance as I get to look back, re-evaluate n make my changes for d 'new year'.<br />Feel like I'm starting out on a clean slate,its d least I can do 4 myself. Wipe everything clean n start anew.<br />On a sad note-2day's an Aunt's funeral.

I haven't picked a name for it yet. I didn't tell you?...well, I'm writing a book. Its intended to be a love story about two people who meet by a twist of fate, they both don't believe in love at first sight, so they keep seeing each other hoping things will work or maybe not. Thats the snag, I don't know how the book will end myself but I'm willing to just keep on writing. Its a story about love, fun, the beauty of life and its accompanying sorrows, I love it and I think you will. It has changed my life completely. :)<br /><br />I've gotten about 10pages under already, have to filter the things I write as the days pass. I don't want to talk too much about it so I don't hit a writer's block as in my last book.<br /><br />However I'll try to post excerpts from it when I'm almost done, so just keep looking in (for those that do).

Now How’d you get urself in this.<br /><br />Simple, you just go to bed thinking about someone and as the days pass you realize that this person captures Ur whole thoughts, you r whole being, you can’t think of much else and even when you do, Ur mind keeps getting drawn back like an elastic band; only this one just doesn’t get weaker as the days pass.<br /><br />Then I think to myself why, why’re U doing this to Urself, she doesn’t even know, snap out of this man!; its probably an infatuation. Days pass, weeks, months !!, but I’m still here. Then I step up to the plate and take the bat in hand, ready to hit a home run but no, it falls just short of the pitch, I’m not the one she desires; alas my hopes are dashed, I can’t seem to make out why. so I go back into my shell, an empty cold one, and curl up licking my wounds.<br /><br />An occasional light flickers, maybe she does like me after all, so I prod further following the light, It gets brighter, the source is in sight, I can feel the warmth, the soft glow in the dark, I reach out to the source but again its an illusion; still too far away. it doesn’t recede this time but the cold returns, the hard shell encases me. Ah! what I would give to have the light, to bask in its full glow… (<em>too emotional to continue</em>)<br /><br />...to be continuedTyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-78184072018899031502008-01-25T03:52:00.000-08:002008-01-25T03:58:56.760-08:00HOMECOMING!!!

Part ISo far so bad on my new year resolution. I kept it up for a lil while then I broke off. Bad bad me. Then about 3 months to my Part 1 M.B.B.Ch. examinations I picked up again. When I think about it that way, I feel really guilty<br /><br />Anyway, MB’s gone now and I’m starting to slide again. Lord help me.<br /><br />Speaking of MB, those were rough times...really. 3 weeks of all sorts of exams ranging from essays, MCQs, practicals and orals. I spent almost 1 year preparing for that exam, but when it came it was still like boy you ain’t started. You know that feeling you have in the pit of your stomach like there’s something you forgot to read<br /><br />OK, day number 1 – Anatomy Essay (still had the feeling) 10 questions with subs to answer in 3 hrs. sounds cheap abi? But when you have to impress the lecturer marking your script, 3 hrs might seem like 3 mins. So I knew all the questions, well almost all but the 3hrs just wasn’t freaking OK. Anyway I attempted all. Guess that worked cos I passed.<br /><br />Day number 2 – Biochemistry 2-part Essay. A short one and the longer version. BCM’s my fav course anyway, had the 3rd highest cumulative score in my class. So I sailed through easily.<br /><br />The crap on the icing was Physiology. 5 freaking long answer essay questions to answer 4 in 2 freaking hours. Made a couple of silly mistakes I realised outside the hall, if I had a 3rd leg, I’d have kicked myself in the nuts. Anyway I had a good cumulative to fall back on so I didn’t have cause to worry (even though I did…a whole lot)<br /><br />The MCQs went well. The orals were OK…OK? Did I say that? Well not all. Anyway it started with Anatomy again…and there was my external examiner,…an Indian!!! I’d heard stories about him so I prepped myself. “I agree vit you totally…but what else passes through this” he asked pointing at the foramen spinosum. Nervuus spinosus I’d said stalling him so I could remember what else, anyway I did and blurted out “middle meningeal artery” just as he said you can go.<br /><br />Physiology Viva was all about English. The Prof. was just breaking into all sorts of grammar and dragging me towards neurophysiology, my fucking worst nightmare, but good students always have something to say now, don’t they?...I’m rambling here right?...anyway my exams were OK, actually exhausting and now I have a 3 months holiday to cool off. Pretty boring if you ask me,…well I’ve got art to fall back to…<br /><br />Feeling kinda sleepy right now, so I’ll just doze off. OK, catcha later.<br /><br /><br />For the artlover...keep checking - I'm working on something explosive, U'll love itTyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-40017573224012368732007-11-10T09:37:00.001-08:002007-11-10T10:07:40.373-08:00Art life (3)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxlsMtUkvBZI87Q2t8_3fDfPNi7wuqjtGzGDFjjr72L52YQz_TN48rN1vwzDMjmc68kOQDv-ggVAjHB_HwOsrdTbEEAdDOxnEYyRssC7X-LlitWZYfeBu2cLqZGNEPgSRWs-GCsEP_gmiO/s1600-h/Horse-Progress-5+001.jpg"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr3-Qe1aa2GhCaglwD8E9jNj5wklu0Fzv6kzV2g-tEpPpgOcp-7PW77Ty-6Oi8oiGEkoqFD3DzPpZ5r9Nnr8aXRflMQqhUITpI-n_HdRMzi0ZfQfEfNOj1c0HFjiUsHLMSiOFaaY6Q-bbG/s1600-h/Horse-Progress-2+001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5131268734799060882" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr3-Qe1aa2GhCaglwD8E9jNj5wklu0Fzv6kzV2g-tEpPpgOcp-7PW77Ty-6Oi8oiGEkoqFD3DzPpZ5r9Nnr8aXRflMQqhUITpI-n_HdRMzi0ZfQfEfNOj1c0HFjiUsHLMSiOFaaY6Q-bbG/s320/Horse-Progress-2+001.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsvtKocXzzYAbTWSB9TTiEVA_r2gEt8gSEJPk3GL-j1bQizqVtScpsD41YASQsRQ1aSGzfjDgV15lelTtGMgS-EtmhnTazcMO4_6waS4hBk4PtW_DcDgTVknYr844cNal3XMSlUGvZ1Uip/s1600-h/Horse-Progress-2+006.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5131268764863831970" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsvtKocXzzYAbTWSB9TTiEVA_r2gEt8gSEJPk3GL-j1bQizqVtScpsD41YASQsRQ1aSGzfjDgV15lelTtGMgS-EtmhnTazcMO4_6waS4hBk4PtW_DcDgTVknYr844cNal3XMSlUGvZ1Uip/s320/Horse-Progress-2+006.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />a lil zoom in for more detail<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQwZt3qs17RWiTbw87hgrRIXkMtO7j7RCP0g7_IC7SL4nOq-qTJYMwLKPAmgOqLYjK1U5AzFJM_Sx4R2hU65U8jo4JPDbgZf0wdggu_27D6BCHlr7v9lbdRHSVtfva5ASKY0ZwnPX-VO6U/s1600-h/Horse-Progress-3+001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5131268769158799282" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQwZt3qs17RWiTbw87hgrRIXkMtO7j7RCP0g7_IC7SL4nOq-qTJYMwLKPAmgOqLYjK1U5AzFJM_Sx4R2hU65U8jo4JPDbgZf0wdggu_27D6BCHlr7v9lbdRHSVtfva5ASKY0ZwnPX-VO6U/s320/Horse-Progress-3+001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiphQn10NQE0RQ28JxSJeZwqRL1TxT0fk75LUOps6kGZbrhSnc6kH2-UwR-Pdp3IJwYetdM5LI1ax04jnwLUlVQEvMf2c1U6Fr4s3cXY4GSJQs8691nKS5vMcIZ9MfmRXow_QC8XHUFpaMo/s1600-h/Horse-Progress-3+005.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5131268773453766594" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiphQn10NQE0RQ28JxSJeZwqRL1TxT0fk75LUOps6kGZbrhSnc6kH2-UwR-Pdp3IJwYetdM5LI1ax04jnwLUlVQEvMf2c1U6Fr4s3cXY4GSJQs8691nKS5vMcIZ9MfmRXow_QC8XHUFpaMo/s320/Horse-Progress-3+005.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLFgpf6yqyf_BJxd5USohCawEsndaagxOiT8PP9l1Fna5zJKd-St26V_0-EuVcv26-u516VeNc4BKJdCC_fwBMzZ_aqEXy9JjbWhxMGbeo515GZC1MvYv2BZD41aE-iGXdbnm66jXwS1N4/s1600-h/Horse-Progress-4+001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5131268782043701202" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLFgpf6yqyf_BJxd5USohCawEsndaagxOiT8PP9l1Fna5zJKd-St26V_0-EuVcv26-u516VeNc4BKJdCC_fwBMzZ_aqEXy9JjbWhxMGbeo515GZC1MvYv2BZD41aE-iGXdbnm66jXwS1N4/s320/Horse-Progress-4+001.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /></div><div>Guess I've been getting better at my art, just completed a nice piece recently and I'm currently working on another, hey if U like 'em U gotta tell me but if U don't I suggest U keep it 2 Urself.</div><div>My Fav.

I doubt if anyone missed me but I still gotta holla.<br /><br />All because of School sha, but Its all for a good cause. Passed my MBBCh exams and I guess I'll have more time now.<br /><br />Missed everyone.<br /><br />C U Guys soonTyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-44104987626683242212007-07-14T10:29:00.000-07:002007-07-14T10:30:44.439-07:00Bla Bla BlaOne of my new year resolutions this year was to be a better Christian, I started on a good footing, three chapter from the Bible every morning, pray seriously before going to bed, you know generally be good and all that, well by May I stopped reading my Bible regularly and then I’d just utter a few words before dozing off.<br /><br />Anyway, lately I’ve been thinking…I should get back on the straight and narrow. Makes me feel better and I guess its all we should do right? I mean we didn’t get here by chance, I for one do not believe in evolution. So we were created by someone so we should try to live as such a Being designed Abi?<br /><br />Well, I’ve been making some changes lately, started a lil though; one verse of the bible a day. I chose proverbs. Chapters are shorter and then they make sense generally in everyday life. Maybe when I’m done I’ll try some other book like, lets see…Corinthians? OK. I wonder why they don’t have books arranged alphabetically? Would have made sense, after reading “P”, move on to “Q”.<br /><br /> Yes! lest I forget, I saw a shooting star some time ago I had just stepped out onto the porch at night, I needed to pick up something at a shop nearby. Then I looked up and just in that split second it passed. I suddenly remembered what I’d been hearing about shooting stars and wishes, so I made two (2) then dashed inside to tell my mum,…yes my mum. Surprised? Well, we’re so close, she sometimes calls me her PA, I’m closer to her than anyone in the family. So like I was saying I told her about it, said she saw one when she was much younger and wished for long life.<br /><br />Hmm I didn’t think of that when I made my own wishes. Anyway sha, I hope they come true. If they do, I’ll sure let the whole world know.Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-53145983885924341772007-07-07T10:55:00.000-07:002007-07-07T11:09:39.201-07:00Sorry all, I've not updated since. Why am I even apologising sef. Its not that my blog is too hot sha, but I know some people drop by.<br /><br />Well, I've been very busy at school lately and I'm still busy. Writing some serious semester exams. You know these past week each time I read so hard, but when I get into the exam hall, I go like "am I really doing this course?...".<br /><br />It beats me where these lecturers get their questions. Anyway I dey try sha but "B" average ain't good enough, I thought I'd step it up this semester before my exams but my plans ain't going as planned...( Inglish )<br /><br />I'll be back in two weeks, or three, I don't know for now, MB exams still dey to write, no kiddin...and sometimes I wake up at night and wonder what the f**k am I really doing<br /><br />OK oh, I have to leave now gotta go reach some Oyinbo book, wetin I go do now...?<br /><br />Later............Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360417514305001939.post-80326123852481268022007-06-30T10:50:00.000-07:002007-06-30T10:54:48.229-07:00"Good Day", Abi?My car had broken down, gear box problem, but I needed to get to the library, I had a lot of reading to do. Being a medical doctor (in the making) entails a lot of reading and more reading. I just had to get to the library somehow, anyhow.<br /><br />I thought of the 3 means of public transport available. I hated okadas, not enough protection and with the silly crash helmets now, that you had to share with approximately twenty thousand other people patronizing this sector. I wasn’t very keen on catching any hair/scalp infection just yet.<br /><br />Taxis didn’t ply the library route so my last option was the bus. However this didn’t come without its qualms. The bus stop was close to the market which was quite a distance from my house. Since my cousin was leaving home too to pick a taxi to her friends’, she decided to walk me.<br /><br />I was ushered to an empty bus and stepped in. This was a new experience for me so I just sat patiently and waited for the bus to fill. The driver was already in, there was a guy sitting beside him up front smoking what looked like a joint (spliff, crack, whareva…) definitely not a cigarette. He looked dirty and unkempt. The driver muttered something in low tones and he moved off and out of the bus. That’s when I got alert. I had a good mind to step off the bus, everything looked suspicious, so as a sharp Nigerian I took out my wallet, removed a large part of the money I was with and pushed it down my socks and into my shoes. I wasn’t taking the change of getting robbed by some market touts. We dey Naija O! and sometimes you need to apply a little wisdom to survive. With this I relaxed a bit. The bus started filling up and soon we moved off.<br /><br />On the way, the driver took a wrong turn off the major road, I almost protested but then everyone else was sitting calm, I think I must have broken into sweat somewhere. Then I heard some people behind me discussing the state of the road ahead, and how bad it was that the past government didn’t do anything about it. They obviously plied this route often, so I relaxed a little. But this route was so long, winding and bad,…thoroughly bad. I thought the bus was going to come apart as it creaked with every bounce and turn<br /><br />“Library!” I shouted, taking a cue from one of the passengers that dropped earlier. The guy passed the library a little, I had to shout again. By this time I was getting a little tensed. Obviously he didn’t hear me the first time, as this time he slowed down and came to a halt. I stepped off, paid the fare and heaved a sigh of relief as I walked back to the library. I just had to do something about my car, I was not sure if I could take that another day, but 30grand gear box no be beans now. I shrugged this off my mind as I took a seat in a secluded area of the medical library and proceeded to retrieve my cash. I took my shoes off, then my socks, but an empty socks stared back at me. With the state of my mind at the moment, I immediately thought…JUJU!!! These people have jazzed me and taken my money. But I couldn’t remember falling asleep, or going into a trance or something of the sort. Impossible, it couldn’t be, I shook the sock over and over again, trying to maybe dislodge the money somehow, I looked on the sole of my foot thinking that maybe it stuck there or something, but who sai!!!<br /><br />My heart rate increased, how was I going to get back home, I had to have lunch later. I stood up, pushed the chair back and then looked down. Staring at me from my empty shoe was a neatly folded pile of naira notes. I shook my head, smiling to myself. It then dawned on my that in the desperation of the moment, I had probably pushed the money straight into my shoe thinking it was in the sock. I noticed one or two eyes looking in my direction as I lowered myself back to my seat, thankful for the separating partitions between the desks.<br /><br />Na wa oh! I thought to myself, what a was to start my day.Tyrexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15879613988401961778noreply@blogger.com1
