Girls' Weekend!!!

I can never truly get bored in Uni, espesh (TRANSLATION: especially) now I'm living with my ditzees!!! This whole weekend has been sooo much fun with random girl time chats, karaoke, ordering in food, dance marathons and OFCOURSE watching X Factor!!! (I still can't get over the fact that Danyl was in the bottom 2....like are Britons nuts or what?)

YaYa and I went manic latenight shopping in Trafford Centre on Friday...the place closes at 10pm!!! Talk about shop 'till you drop? Topshop had some SICK sales!! So much so that we were the last customers in the changing rooms & the clerks were impatient and tired cos they just wanted to go home lol. I forgot my card at home but was lucky enough to have a great friend like YaYa to lend me funds, but i didn't go crazy and just purchased this bandage skirt...tres k-YOOOT!

You already know I love re-inventing outfits... so i wore the pashmina over my dress as a top lol

Cardigan = Madhouse

Pashmina = London Market (I think)

Boobtube dress = Topshop

Belt = Macy's (detached from a dress)

Lycra Leggings = Attic (Manchester Boutique)

Uggs = Primark

FINALLY went to church for the 1st time since I'd been back at Manchester. I'm more a Church of England girl & actually got in a mini-tiff with my bff over my personal choices and likes, etc. But anyway, I digress...I tried out a semi-Penticostal church called Kings. Twas VERY uplifting and not to rowdy, I was truly moved by the sermon but didn't really appreciate the odd comments of "ooh" and "prech on" from the congregation....I found it quite distracting to be honest...BLEURGH!

I woke up far too late to do anything too inventive with my church outfit...lol

Blazer = Dorothy Perkins

Ethnic Necklace = Tejioso market (Nigeria)

Dress = Primark (kid's section)

Cotton ribbed tights = Primark

Chinese inspired pumps = Bay Trading

YeYe says...BLEURGH!! Kick back & chill with your girlies! Whether it's sipping a glass of champagne while sharing secrets or dancing the night away to your favourite songs...do it all! Fun's meant to be shared Xisses

Social Life...my way

The video really does speak for itself. I personally think this is a true challenge to all 2nd and 3rd year University students. Getting out of the mentality that a good time is defined by going out to a club...BLEURGH!

YeYe says...BLEURGH!! Define "socialising" your way!

Put your mouth where your money is...

I know reading up there, you will be confused why the title is completely reversed to the usual saying?
Well, you guessed it...JEALOUSY! The subject of whom is Tiffany Evans, who you may remember her from her songs "Promise Ring" ft Ciara and "I'm Grown" ft Bow Wow. The key words in both songs being featuring! My girl has not been able to achieve as greatly as she had hoped when she crossed over from gospel music to more mainstream commercial music, on her own without the help of a known star to propel the single to the charts. Hmm...sellout you say?!? Well, I agree! And yet, this SAME chica is running up her lips on Twitter saying:

"Russian Roulette = Suicidal Rate gon sky rocket!
You gotta watch what u say. Because there are a lot of weak people in the world. They are susceptible to anything so anything you say or do some people actually do listen. So make sure its nothing bad. Its okay to be deep,but not murder deep.

Man! I really wish I could tell you guys what the industry really is and what stars are apart of destroying this world. The stars who worship satan,and those who have killed to get the respect they have now. You’d be verrrry surprise.Some of your favorite people pretend to worship God but they only do that to save face. Or seem innocent.

Satan was head of music in heaven. He uses influential people…to help influence the world. Think about that. Once u make a certain amount of money. Just know that that’s when they ask u to join. To get in you have accept the beast, worship. Once you join they assist u with ur career.make u huge.only if u agree and obey to destroy Gods word.and his children.

Ppl listen and pay attention. Its a war going on right now between Good and Evil. Evil will rule this world for a min. The people that have this power are the people that RULE the whole world. I’m done I won’t say anymore before I get in trouble."

YER mate, you keep telling yourself that you're doing a good deed by spreading the word and you might actually believe it...BLEURGH!! She just sounds salty to me. I mean, you tried and FAILED to make it in the commercial realm and now you take a stab at one of THE most talented black stars in the industry? Seems dodgy that noone goes off at Britney Spears or Madonna (Kaballah is actually a spin-off of Judaism, if I'm correct?) about worshipping Satan to become successful. Well, that's because that'd be inaccurate.

YeYe says...BLEURGH!! Suck it up and work on your own damn talent...jealousy is also a sin "you hypocrite! First pick the plank out of your own eye so you can see clearly to pick the speck of dust from your brother's" Matthew 7 Verse 5.

Do ur bit & Stay safe kidlings

Hey hunnies! Its been too long and i blame YaYa. Hey! I've always been the irresponsible one, hence my tale...

So a week into moving into our new place, I go back to London for a fab "Cops & Bandits" shindig at my brother's as a flatwarming/ birthday celebration. And I must say, his new pad is FAB!!! Its got the whole IronMan feel with the bedroom overlooking his livingroom and his decor is to DIE for. All black and glass...modernity gets an A+ in my books, all that antique and Victorian wood makes my skin crawl

Hat = Fancy Dress store (Manchester)

Shirt = Debenhams / Marks & Spencers (unsure, twas my sister's)

Skirt / Pinafore = Primark

So obvo, as I was in London, I HAD to go home & see my parents, etc. They bombarded my suitcase with goodies, both Western & African. My kitchen (and belly) were more than pleased. The days ride on and I'm inspired to delve into the kitchen & cook something to make me homesick (or not? lol) YaYa and I decide on fried yam and plantain. We enter the kitchen, approach the cooker and its hot. So wise-arse over here (that would be me) decides that's a job less to do (turn on the cooker....how LAZY am i?? i KNOW) so we just place the wok on top & i pour the oil in, turn around to slice the yams and i feel heat... I turn my attention back to the cooker and its smoking at this point. I'm alarmed so i turn on the vent....BAD IDEA!! The pan goes UP IN SMOKE (like the Dr Dre tour) and I start panicking!! So much for the "fire psa's" I watched when I was younger lol. There a load of hoo-ha with my flatmates thinking (as a compulsive liar) I was crying wolf, for which they soon regretted, with SiSi running out with NO shoes and pants she refers to as "shorts"...LMFAO memories!! Anyway, the fire brigade were called...we turned off the fire & no, not with a blanket as provided but with H2O...YES! We know, we could have died! And the rest is history!

But yer, that was 2 weeks ago and this is now...I have gotten over the shock and have overcome my fear of the kitchen. Now cooking rather than ordering in, I believe I am making progress, you need not worry. What I may need your concern over however is my life!! Uni's KILLING me!! I have no time to think, talk less of blog. I have taken on quite a few things this year, one being a project called the "After School Club", run by UNICEF. I'm personally helping this cute kid called Hanan, and she's TRES cute!!

As Mother Teresa said (i DID go to a Catholic Sixth Form people, gimme a break!!) "I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God"...i'm doing my bit.

YeYe says...BLEURGH! I can't save the whole world at once, but a sketch at a time will eventually produce a masterpiece. Xisses
