Right now i dont have any problem that i cant deal with . The only problem ? is my AUNT! she's being a serious pain in my ass. i said jokingly that i'm getting tired of my job and i wouldn't mind a new one she reacted like i have just farted with my mouth. she was simply pissed. And i found out that its not only what i said thats pissing her off but my life style. Hear this-
you wanna quit your new job! what are you nuts! anyway that girlfreind of yours whats her name? forget her. huh! i said alarmed . There are a lot of good girls out there. Aunty... let me finish!( she cuts me off) and the way you spend.............. thats when i tuned out. now i dread her visit and everybody seems to agree with her! . . . Shit! my boss is coming . um . . . i'll talk to you guys later . I gotta go now.

I told you guys about my new job. right? anyway after going through all kinds of intimidating psychologically bullying experience a guy came to give us the fortunate ones words of encouragement and it goes thus:

welcome young interns
here you light and guide your lanterns
by lanterns i mean your ideas
cover your tracks
even more your asses!
cos if you are caught napping
when the big boys upstairs come sniffing
forget youve just got hired
you ll be fired!
I miss you guys its been ages.kunle, dilichi, onada et. al and oh! the new guy "truth" thanks a bunch i am back now (i hope). more gist coming your way!

confession of a shitty love life

I've tried many times to write this piece. But i always end up tearing the write up to smithereens. Why? i get scared after reading it. I always sound like a pathetic wimp! . I summoned enough courage and wrote this . Although i cringe with embarrassment writting it. I wrote it all the same . I just want the demons to rest(the words are now like demons buzzing in my head and won't let go) . So, if i sound pathetic...its because it is pathetic. Here it is.......(tender your comments with mercy pleeeeease) (sighs)
I'm a good boy . it sound corny or even cocky. I wish i knew a better way to say it . I can't hack it as a" bad boy" pronto!. You think its good ? it is . But the problem is... i attract the worst girls you can imagine . I've got a list - (a) saucy girls:- To big for thier breaches (or is it bra?) but really they're a big fat zero!
(b) Aristo\Big girls:- one step from a hooker\ prostitute actually they like to think they are smart groupie s....what am i saying! they're whores
(c) Two timing bitches :-dates different guys at the same time. they can't seem to make up thier minds grrrrrrrh! (d) spoilt ill mannered girls:- they fight everybody . Arrogant, hates all your friends and thinks she's doing you a favour coping with your not-too-cool - friends
I think i'll like to stop here with the list. I can't go any further painful memories are seeping in. Believe me i've had tango with all the four categories. Talking about a guy with a hard luck huh? I'm tired now. I think i will follow Tina Turner's advice-"whats love got to do with it?.....who needs a heart when a heart can be broken". This is what am gonna do from now on . Any good, well mannered girl thats cross my line am wooing her. Even if i don't like her. Yes , i do get good girls but the problem is always this-No chemistry, no spark, no attraction and we always end up friends. my radar seems to be warped or something.

RAMBLING THOUGHTS OF ANGER
My friends went to a job aptitude exercise for one of the leading banks. They came back with the same old song . Shitty story of woe.Mammoth crowd .The pushing and shoving .The stuffy halls.The complex and wicked questions and of course not enough time.I won't even dare go to details . the point is ... the exercise is fucked!
-----------------------------------------------------
My pa is pissing me off.soon (and i mean soon)we're gonna spit at each others faces.He always claim to be "connected" meaning-he knows people that knows people .But make a move?. Han..han! not my pa.He kept insisting that we should take our time. i think the man's ego won't let him go cap in hand for help.Right!.Pride is good. But money talks bullshit walks.He kept saying "i know how to handle these people". Who is he fooling?. Thanks pa! but you see i'm running out of time and patience. In a country where who you know determines how you're gonna eat! i need a job.I gotta have a job soon. or else i am ...am...(sniffed)am FUCKED!

Still Job Hunting
I got a letter today. It says "we are sorry we can not call you for the interview because you did not reach the cut off mark and blah ,blah, blah.That kicked in my guts. I must confess. i was feeling low when pals came in (we're all still looking for jobs) i told them what happenned , showed the letter to them and they started laughing. one of my pals said "is this what you 've got that's making you trip? let me give you mine" and he started- "i went to these insurance company looking for job ,when i got there the receptionist used all my time to answer a personal call gesturing to me to wait, i did . Do i have any option? after about 10mins she turned her pretty face to me and said yes?...
I told her . she directed me to a guy upstairs.I waited again for about 10mins . he openned the door at last.The room was stuffy and smells funny .i saw a lady sitting down at the corner reading like its going out of fashion.I understood what happened. Any way to cut the story short the guy direct me to another office again! i fummed and stumped out of the office while i was leaving i decided to check the name of the company on their big billboard it reads"INTERCONTINENTAL ASS"the urance had faded off . No wonder! i shouted (i laughed like i'm running mad)
About the "big girl" write up ? i've decided to follow 'lawunmi's advice -SHUT UP! sorry guys i think its the best thing to do.my gramatical errors ? what can i say ? i'm awfully sorry. i use the cyber cafe this days i have to type twice as fast 'cos time is money in cafes you know...

i promised to finish up the political imbroglio in nigeria but i have just discovered that my blog is becoming too "serious" and (God forbid!)borinnnnnng(and thats the worst nightmare for any blog user)but before i stopped talking about politics here is a funny news flash-"after two governorship aspirants were wasted.in lagos and ekiti state,the remaining aspirants about 382of them are now seeking police protection! niger area!(lol)
so,the gist of the day. right?
It's been a kick in my nuts everytime but i don't wanna talk 'cause i've been intimidated by labels like-hypocrite,,santimonious prick....(and list goes on) its about the "big girl" fever .and most of my friends are queuing up to join the club.you know what they do? they go about dating as many men that can give them cash after a sex orgy that will make a porn movie look like a dry joke.it's i need your cash you need my kind sort of deal.
i meet one recently. she came flopped on the bed ,very tired looking very used with bags under her eyes. she's been on the road(thats the term used) for about two days going from one guy to the other (and they are not shy to talk about it, you wonder why)she came with N100,000 cash! okay, i agree thats alot of money.but she slept with about 7 men in 2 days to get it ! correct me if i'm wrong is'nt that whoring?! its a question,i am kinda confused. i've got friends, good girls,sexy, intelligent,pretty girls,beautiful, drop dead gorgeous girls going out with one "thing" like this .a bad news going somewhere to happen.so long he's got money he's got game.
And...oh! the annoying part is this-they will like to "settle down"(whatever that means)one day with responsible guy and have a marital bliss(yeah right!)after all that popularity!as a "big girl"?!look i've got enough gist about this girls to crash the smartest computer! comments please.(or may be i should just put up or shut up?)

The Soap Opera:Nigerian Politricks
Obasanjo started getting ideas"third term" he called it nobody took him serious, then he started laying his cards on the table. people told him to shut the hell up, pack his shit and go back to his farm. He does'nt like it but could nothing but sulk.He's still sulking. Meanwhile, every tom,dick and harry wants his job. Especially his vice Atiku.Baba sneered"come and get it"."Bring it on!"screamed Atiku and he's been screaming on newspapers eversince. Whats his plans? nobody fucking knows.
Meanwhile, some political arsewipes who loved to make money from political brouhaha like this are calling for Interim National Government(now what does that suppose to mean?).shameless shit eating , shit kicking parasite!. Baba has got the ruling party PDP by the balls,he's squeezing and wont let go. most of the politicians had jumped off the wagon some are still trying to control the wheels. so, the political actors now .Lets meet them.
We've got megalomanic retired generals. coming up is one time military head of state-General Buhari (APPLAUSE). He's little bit limited in charisma department , he's got nothing to prove, nothing to offer,he's been there,done that, we've seen what he can do(and its not much really) but he still wants the job anyway.
Next,he's always with a big smile plastered on his face. ladies and gentlemen i present General Ibrahim Babangida (APPLAUSE) . He ruled Nigeria for eight years. started the policy of anything can happen.maradona or evil genius (anyof the aliases is ok by him)made mockery of our lives for eight years ,now he wants to come back!(why?who fucking knows how this men thinks)
Although, he's not a General but he's from the jackboot camp.He's either a Major general or brigadier(frankly? i don't give a shit!) he's got impressive resume,he ruled lagos once,cleaned up the city real good and made a lot of money(how?dont ask me) retired and became an employer of labor (why can't he stick to that?) anyway ,he thinks he's got enough clout to get into aso rock. we will wait and see.(oh! i forgot a round ofAPPLAUSE) thank you .
Now, another sect are the "sudden wealth","money miss roads"and" the dust kickers"they are not keen on winning they just want to make money ,cheap popularity and of course juicy compromise for million dollar contract i'll make a roll call:Rochas Okorocha, rev. Chris Okotie("sniggered",sorry i can't help it) oh ,oh we've got Buba Marwa again!(i told you , he's got impressive resume)
And now,this sect can't manage the unit given to them but they'd like a shot at the big one in aso rock they're the vice president himself and some governors.They've been in office for eight years some are busy amassing wealth with little subtlety,some are even backstabbing,money laundring,corrupt beyond redemption pricks!. But hey, you dont chose your family neither your country right? anyway,here they are our creme de la creme (forgive me if i didnt bow) peter odili of rivers state,Orji kalu of Enugu,Makarfi of Kaduna,Y erima of Zamfara.and thats all we've got for now i mean the serious ones.
Meanwhile,none of them i repeat none of them has given us the political party on which it's platform they're going to campagn or be voted for and the election is just 10 months away! isn't that ................SCARY!!!! (to be continued)

then.........
there is some sort of decency
a controlled hypocrisy
they come to you with practised sincerity
begging you to vote for their party.

now........
they tell barefaced lies
when around us problem mounts high
they vie violently for prominence
insult our intelligence
display their ill gotten wealth unabashed
noble flight of ideas are delibrately crashed
if it threatens the atmosphere
of their vanity fair
insane lot!
who loves to gain from rot
when people cry out
they wondered whats the fuss about
"no cause for alarm "
solutions are in the pipelines, on this we're firm!
thats their standard answer
yet they continued to blunder.

soon.........
they go with caps in their hands
with colorful bands
to their peoples places
and lie to their faces
the accused also pleading his case
but its a perfunctory phase
because they know ,on that day
people vote or not they're going to rig anyway
