Unbelieveable is how I feel when I wake up in the morning
It is the energy around me when I wake to the Sun
Unbelievable is my God
Look out your window…
Unbelieveable is the strength I see in those around me
It is the will to begin again and again and again…
Unbelieveable is the love of my friends
It tells me that “I don’t have to go it alone”
Unbelieveable is my heart
It has loved, lost, healed and will love again
Unbelieveable is my mind
It is limitless, boundless, fearless
Unbelieveable is my body
It is strong, getting stronger and can do anything
Unbelievable is my future
What I can do, where I will go, who I will be…
Unbelievable is me…

BE...
The time has come to just ‘be’ – no more waiting for the perfect moment to be the perfect me.
The time is now – no more thinking my ‘aha’ moment; now is the time to have it.
No more spending today dreaming my perfect tomorrow without yesterday’s mistakes,
I will live today in all its fullness.
I will just be…me,
Not perfect…just me…

House-helps or house-hazards?
Isn’t it just ludicrous how we let some semi-retarded (and those are the good ones) people into our lives and our homes, believing in our minds that they are there to make life somewhat easier, and then subject ourselves to the daily punishment of having to berate them over the same thing each and everyday and end up doing the work ourselves.
We then come up with pathetic excuses that sooth only our ears – things like “how much of the house can I sweep when I have to get to work by 8am” or “at least, I don’t have to wash the pots after I cook”. Come on!!! Are you kidding me, the house still isn’t cleaned the way we want it, the pots still have to be washed at their next use since some lazy ass uneducated beesh can’t soak it long enough or scrub hard enough, and then to top it all off, when you start to complain, she has this obstinate look like “what’s got your panties all up in a bunch” and you just want to slap that smug look off her face.
I don’t even see the need to regale you with stories and do my own crazy pass your own, but in recent years, we have been through more than enough (but trust me, we aren’t that difficult a lot) and it seems like there is some crazy competition going on, each one trying to out-crazy the last.
But on the real, it just sometimes seems to me that thee people are so quick to forget where they are coming from – I mean, they come from some scrawny village where they don’t have shit, and then they come to your place and after one or two weeks, they start to behave like they own the house – they hug the t.v. and do as if they’ve been watching Africa Magic since since; to call them to do something is wahala – you some raggedy uptight sometin tryna stress them; or how they all seem to chop up after like just a month; and wanna be taking two pieces of meat with every meal or how when cooking for one, they cook enough for four, so that they can be nice enough to prevent wastage… And don’t let me get started on the ones that think their hot and start spending longer time out grinding pepper and then in like six months, there are off cuz them get belle…
It’s just as I said, ludicrous.
...and me ranting on an especially annoying day.
Peace

Chelsea vs. United
Mehn, the Wednesday Chelsea – United clash was so messed up!
Talk about bland football. Can’t disagree though that there were some good young talent on display and all that long tins but puh-leez! The only exciting parts were the laughs we got watching Cuszack(can’t spell it mehn!) and those four buffoons (O ye ka lu won legba) Fergie put in the back play toss with the ball just outside the net (but I assure you, it wouldn’t have been funny if one had entered).
But still, we are the Champions!!!
I mean, did those blue beeshes think that they’d have it three in a row? Oh hell no!
Abi won ro pe awa iyoku wa n mu garri ni?
Watch Sunday to see the champions get the trophy back at Old Trafford!
