What a day!

Ehen! I have "do" it again. I haven't made an entry on this diary for a while now. beeeeeen busy. What da! never mind. I could still have typed but I was occupied with other stuff. In a space of two months now, I've been to different places, travelled through different means. Yes I mean that one. Travelled by land(cars, buses, trucks-not Molue, na Ranger I mean o), travelled by air...Yes I broke the record. used the Arik air- Michael is the name. The flight to Abuja to attend the NAPTIN opening ceremony at the Ladi Kwali Hall of the Sheraton Hotel was hmmm. I loved it. Imagine, the first time i traveled to Abuja (for an interview), I went by road and I spent over 7 hours. Man, I was tired of sitting. Never have I felt that way. But I did and then, here was the flight by air. Just thirty minutes? ehn ! This is the one i want to be using. The only issue was that I got one tiny bread and one tiny cup of juice. Ha! Arik e o try at all. But sha, I got the WINGs magaz...

Can you have stuffs fast and amazing? here I sit on a chair, typing into my pc and wondering if it'll be the same (fast, not amazing). always made fast posts like "I just want to write in my diary and get out". But they haven't been stuff I guess people will appreciate when you really want to take your eyes off the story and look at the writeup as a whole. I laugh when I read this diary. that's not what i need to say today. I just read something on www.wesleydonehue.com and I'm like this guy is good (not an awesome guy, though, had a very rough life in the past and is trying to get a terrific 1 year). But I like the site! We do things in a hurry at times just to get it over with and we never seem to care whetther they turn out amazing or not. Funny enough, my devotion this morning has to do with enduring works. Hmm, someone seems to be telling me something. I still remember that Technical drawing(T.D.) board I made during the SWEP program(200level). I ...

Still, another I found on the computer. I'd rather have it saved here. Happened at School, 300 level, 2nd semester. here it goes, unedited. Some spiritual me. Still spiritual though, can't afford to be neutral out here. Letting God take the lead in your affairs removes every cause for worries in your life. today 13july06 ---------------- I don't know how, but a summary is all i'm gonna do. I tried writing before but lost the document. I hope this would do or really help. There was a kettle that was left boiling in my room on a particular day. this kettle had no thermostat attached.we all went for a meetin in the chapel , I then remebered that the person that was boiling the water never came back for it. I came to the hall to check but I couldn't get in. I tried all I could to get the person and my roomate, Soji to confirm whether they turned it off, I found the person and he said he left it  connected after trying for a while and it did not work but that my rooma...

Checking through the files on my laptop, I stumbled on things i wrote in the year 2006 while in my third year at the university. This time I was on break, at home. its not in a good shape as I would write now but I think I'd leave it and tinker later on it, expressing it better in the memoir I'm writing. The day that started with the fun i never dreamt of and ended with the pain i never bargained for. Today, I went out followed my Dad and the driver to repair the brake pads for his mazda and then went with the driver for some driving lessons. he was suprised to find out I knew how to drive and just needed to get confident on the road(Thanks to lessons my dad always gave during the breaks-I had to press him to do this)). After the lesson, I rushed down to Shoprite to meet Tunji, Ayo and Eyi for some shopping, we bought all we wanted to buy there and window-shopped all we wanted to window-shop. Obviously, we saw friends, movie and music stars we laid our eyes on. I wanted a...

“Aah! Je kin ya fun!” Professor Ola exclaimed as he swerved to the side of the road onto the green grass by the university staff quarters. He had seen a vehicle behind him trying to overtake. Still in a state of shock, I, sitting on the passenger’s seat, looked back to see the vehicle he was referring to. It was a grey Land Rover jeep moving at a high speed, the noise it made, increasing as it passed beside us, onto the stretch of the road and disappearing in a corner covered by green trees. “That’s how he drives”, the Professor said as he brought the Volvo to a halt. “This is not the first time I’ve seen him do this”, he continued, his hands pointing at the jeep with his now fiery eyes, looking toward me, by the passenger’s seat and then, towards the jeep in front. We were coming from the orthopedic clinic. I had been sent there to see him two weeks ago by my project supervisor, Dr. Jubril. I was working on an electronic device that would help monitor the walking pattern of people...

I seem to have forgotten this is a diary and should be kept till I'm................Some days ago, I sort of typed the link on facebook and the "whole world" has started reading my life. Oh No! I feel naked! Everyone's gonna know all the crazy things I do, the stupid ones, the nice ones and all. I brought this all on myself. Oooooo. It used to be about 246 pageview from America, Canada, Russia and faintly Nigeria but now its 646 pageviews with the total concentration in Nigeria. Waow! I really blew it out. Anyways, its done already, no use editing it. Would have done that before I opened it up(been hiding it for a while- at least no one gets to see the notepad files on my PC). This is just a glimpse into my wierdy head. It all flows in it. And I'll keep doing my thing. Could be boring but I guess the whole purpose is that i have a diary to look back at (not my Pc files that get lost when my Pc goes bad) Reflections on workshop.....had a great time writin...

“Yeah”, with excitement on our faces, we all said when we were told we would be going to the National Conservation Centre at Lekki. We were having a writing workshop which was already in its third day. I had not been to the conservation centre before that day. I imagined what it would be like with some amazement on my face. I thought of the scenery, the elephants, crocodiles, lions, chimpanzees and every animal I had seen before. I had been to the zoo at the University of Ibadan but there, the animals there were caged. I had heard that those at the conservation centre were not as they were free to move from one place to another. Delighted, I prepared for the excursion. We got to the centre in a few minutes after we left the Dover Hotel we had camped for the workshop. We were welcomed by the beautiful scenery, a well kept environment with grasses, flowers and tall trees all around. The tortoise with its cracked shell was the first animal we saw, crawling on the gra...
