Welcome to NIGERIA

Ok. For clarity sake on my last post..Sule was the ex. Now to this post..

Wow..now before anyone gives me any speech about me fronting..i'm not fronting..i came back to nig last year..so i should remember how everything is right? wrong!! It's funny how your memory can play tricks on you and you remember all the good bits..hpw u meet hot guys..and how NEPA taking light is a time to bond..and how traffic is really just the same as London..and how you always have money..infact..total rubbish!!

First of all..the ATM's in the airport kindly told me that solo cards werent the way to go..so i arrived in Nig with 20 quid. Ok now? no biggie..money will flow shey? Get home..theres light..ah ah..i said it! nig is bunz..ok..buy sim card..hmm..aunty puts credit inside..this is what i'm talking about..ok..friends call..they come over..'WE MISSED YOU..YOURE LOOKING TOO MAD...etc..ehn..mad!

Time to go out..and this is where it all starts to go wrong. Palms- nandos- they give you TWELVE chips!! no joke..12!! fair enough..ermm..lets go to shoprite..berry chill here nau..ur just coming from sainsburys..what are you going to shoprite for?? ok..i chilled. Sha at night at the end of everything..we are coming back from my grandmas hse..people are running! hausa men that swear by jazz are running!! ehn..my mum starts to reverse..she's too confused.open car door..'oya everybody RUN'...lol..we fly out of the car..everyone starts running!! no one even holds my little cousins hand..every man for himself..we're running..my brother is like 'see temi' (my childhood friend-the babe too was running)..me i'm like 'this guy forget Temi..just RUN"...kai..im unfit sha..my chest almost collapsed after that run!

We came home-no light. Great! yesterday was in traffic for FOUR hrs!! I now sleep at 9 o clock because the days are so tiring!! I always feel grimy and dirty! my 'cleanse, tone, mosturise' routine has now become..'cleanse, tone'..because trust me..mosturiser aint making it to my skin!!

Anyway when all is said and done..gorra love nigeria..watch out for more details..btw..i think all the hot boys have dried up..but thats a whole other post..buttercup.i havent forgotten you o!!

Naija Sutra said...

yeah, you left me hanging in the running part too....lol

and there are still fine guys out there in naija, trust me. i recently moved back to and expected the worse. the thing that pains me the most is that these fine guys are really hidden and it seems the ugly ones are just out there. (no offense)
