Chei! My blog has grown some serious cobwebs!! Who abandon's their blog for over 7 months..only flygurle!!!

Even though i've not been blogging, i've still been visiting my favorite blogs ... and mehn, is BIMBYLADS a good writer or WHAAAATTT!! This chick does not even know i read her blog cos i've never left any comments, partly cos i can't blog at work & when i get home, i'm too tired.. but she really does take the cake!!!
I admire ex-school nerd's writing too. I must say that there is just too much talent in blogville. And pple are shutting down, left and right.. not fair!!

Miss u London Buki! I know i haven't commented on your page in a looong time but MUMMY is still close to my heart and i still read ur MUMMY MONDAY posts.

Moving on, a lot has been hapenning.. the good, the bad and the ugly. But when there is life there is hope abi?

Something hilarious happened to me. Though now its funny, i was pissed as hell when it first happened. So i'm minding my business o.... bored, i decided to go on HI 5 and see wots up.. i opened the page and there was this friend request from some guy. I screen a lot of people on my page and so i decided not to respond to his request below (all shelling included)

"Nice to read about your profile, you are cute, geogeous, good looking, pretty n beautiful.....
You are 1 in a million..................
I'm looking for fun as much as i'm look for love.
I promise to upload a new pics in the coming week, i really have limited time.
If you desire fun you can reach on this ad.
so that we can have more fun.
Hear from you soon............
Good morning n happy sunday.."

Emi fun? Who asked u? I don't recall ever saying anything on my page about looking for fun!(Flgurle, breathe) So i'm like okkkkkk!!! I figured if he didn't get a response, he will move on right? Boy was i wrong! Bright and early the next day, i got another message from him

"I was expecting your reply this morning but i did not get any response from you... How's work going? I just return from work n just feel like seeing your face n let you know that i keep you closer than you may think.
A word from you is a break- through...
Hear from you soon".

Now i am really beginning to thinki have a stalker on my hands. Na by force, if you didn't get a response, shouldn't that tell u something! Nyways, i ignored the message again and i just thot this time around he would get it! And was i wrong yet again. Now this part gave me the shivers !

I open my e-mail the next day and SURPRISE!!! i get and e-mail from this "were". I know HI 5 only displays ur first name but definetly not your e-mail address.. now i am in panic mode wondering how in the world this person got my e-mail address. His message goes

"How are ou doing? I invited you to be a friend on hi5 but you did not respond. I just want to be a friend........... have fun, meet new people...share n get fresh ideas... have interest in investment, sport and travelling. Hope to hear from you soon. Do have a great weekend".

Now i am thinking, its really time to put a stop to this madness. Oh i was furious! So i sent a reply asking him, how in God's name he got my e-mail address cos i don't recall ever giving it to him. To which he replied

"I only come across your profile on HI5 n i just get itmay its bcos im a little good on PC, but since i found n read your profile i know u r kind of interesting person, who wants fun n like 2 meet more pple. Flygurle, can you please reply through my office intranet mail i.e (email address)that i can always reply asap.......... How is your weekend like? n if i may ask what do u doon your weekends? Hear from you soon".

Ema gbami ke! And who told u i wanted to talk to you in the ist place and u are telling me u can "always" reply asap. I have suffered!!! Nyways i sent a final reply hoping the dunce will now really get it. I said i wasn' t interested and that i wish him luck in his quest for fun. Shebi that shoulda been the end of the story abi.

I got another e-mail! Piss off already!! Did i stutter when i said i was not interested in having "fun".

Arrgh!!! pple sha.

Nyways ... its good to be back... i hope i can keep up this time!

26 on the 26th

ITS MY BIRTHDAY

Geez i am officially OLD!!!!! This only happens once in one's life time (age and birth date corresponding). Chei, i remember when i was 18... where did all those years go???? I am embracing old age though, so its all dandy LOL!!!

I wasn't initially freaked about my birthday coming up this year... which is very unlike me. Infact, i didn't start feeling the vibe until a couple of hrs ago. Usually, i woulda gone all out...taken the day off, bought myself a new outfit, gone out with friends and whatnot but i ain't doing all of that this year. Infact i have nothing planned. It wasn't until i was talking with my friend at work, that it dawned on me that it's really my birthday and i have a lot to be thankful for!!!!

I am grateful to God.... very grateful for another year, another time like this. I have too much to be thankful for. Not just for the preservation of life, but everything thing else that comes with me being Flygurle. God has been faithful in all aspects of my life. This time last year, i was at my lowest... everything was just not working according to plan(story 4 another blog). But i look back now, a year later and i'm like wow.. it could only have been God!!!. I am breaking into this yoruba song right now

Semi na re oluwa(2ce)

Mo wa dupe ore atodun modun

Mo wa dupe ore atosumosu

Mo wa dupe ore igbagbogbo

Semi na re oluwa

I'm just thankful, i'm grateful, i'm humbled and i know i'm truly loved by my God. I thank God who has truly been my rock, my source, my strength, my shield and my ever present help in times of need.

I thank God for the wonderful, loving and supportinng parents that God has blessed me with (i wouldn't trade them for the world). I thank God for my extended family and friends, my health, my job, my home, my going out and my coming in, for all i lay and have ever laid my hands upon to do.... for everything really.

I thank God for life, for hope, for the joys and the sorrows, for the known and the unknown, for my 2morrow that i know is rooted in his plans. I am thanking God for many more years ahead.

Eyin eyan mi (my people) rejoice with me... FLYGURLE is a year OLDER!!!!

Yippie!!! I Have A Date

2007-02-14T00:32:00.000-05:00

Happy Valentine Y'all!!!

I hope everyone will have a swell day ... date or no date! Don't be jealous, i have myself a date.... oh boy am i looking forward to this or what!!

Lets see... what will i be wearing.... hmmn, i have to look very conservative o... i don't want my date having a wrong impression at all...infact i have to make sure dat at the end of the afternoon (we decided to do lunch ...1pm sharp) ... i woulda knocked him off his feet!!!

Guess where we're going for our lunch date?.... Nope, u guessed wrong. ok ok, i'll tell u... we're gonna be having our date at the DISTRICT COURT!!! Oh and guess who my date is... yup, u got it right this time... a COURT JUDGE!!!

Naa... its not what y'all are thinking... i'm no an ex-con, a juve, or whatever it is pple go to court 4. I just have a freaking speeding ticket that i have decided to contest ... i honestly don't need another ticket on my driving record (I shoulda known better right? Wrong!!!).

See... my insurance is at an all time low... and i am tryna keep it dat way.. I know, i know, i have a lead foot... or better yet... i have to blame it on my car... its goes waaay too fast 4 me lol... yea rite!!!

Ok so.. i am minding my business cruising jejeli home on my way from work... i am like 5 mins away from home .... next thing i know....i see bright lights flashing.... DAMN!!! not again... So i pull over and this is how it goes down

Cop: Ma'm do u know y i pulled u over

Flygurle: (In my mind i'm like du'h y else would u pull me over) . Oh No, i have no clue

Cop: Well, i pulled u over cos u were doing 85 in a 65 mile zone

Flygurle: errrh, (ok dats it i am gonna get me a bicycle) well i wasn't going dat fast at all. Can i see d radar pls (like it was gonna make a difference, i knew i was going dat fast)

Cop: (Goes and gets the radar and sticks it in ma face) See, there it is, it clocked u at 85

Flygurle: (Shio!) Ok can you at least gimme a warning

Cop: Well i will have to give you a ticket.... you can go to court and speak to a judge and if u are lucky, he can let you go this one time!

So....2morrow, while others are whispering sweet nothings into their dates ears... i will have to convince a judge that i should not have to pay $160 and not have 3 points on my driving record!!!

While others are promising their dates heaven and earth, i will have to promise the judge that i will be selling my car and buying a bicycle as soon as i leave his court LOL!!!. I will have to promise him that i will neva eva, speed again as long as i live!!! YA!!!

While others are getting flowers, chocolates and other goodies, i am hoping i would get a slap on my wrist and go free (yes me faith is at an all time high, and i am calling things that are not as though they are). Yes Calabar Girl.. I will be having a lovely Valentine Lol!!
Wish me luck!!!!

On a lighter mood, its really snowing over here o!!! I worked from home yesterday and i will be working from home 2day as well. .. it feels sooo damn good, not to have to get up at 7am and drive an hr to get to work!!!

Though i am working from home 2day cos the insurance company has to come take a look at my house (story 4 another blog)

I am tryna get used this this blogging thingy... so much to learn...

Have fun 2 morrow pple... i shall be making my rounds on all d different blogs 4 juicy details!!!

Thanks to all who stopped by to show some love on my blog.....

To Blog Or Not To Blog

2007-02-13T00:19:00.000-05:00

So... i've been contemplating this blog thingy 4 a while now. There are sooo many thots in ma head and i just need to get them out. Initially i was scared that i was gonna be a bore, reveal my deepest emotions, get on people's nerves or that i may eventually run out of things to say but then... after i spoke with London Buki(she inspired me)... i realized that i neeeded to do this... I have to get these thots out... i can't bottle them up anymore..

How this will trurn out i have no idea but i'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I've made it through enuff roller-coasters, ups and downs, some pretty amazing twists and turns, enuff drama to fill a soap opera and a crash course on LIFE!

What i have learnt so far is more than i could possibly have imagined and i have learnt that i am still learning

So blogsville, here i come...

Don't go away... i'll be right back with more insights into my life.
