Hi there,you know i woke up thinking today is Thursday,thats what happens when you are indoors all through,you kind off miss count,well i was surfing the net and came across a group that had won a reality tv show back home,i remember following that particular season of the show and really wanting the particular group to win,i think what really endeared me to the group was a song they wrote and did a video of,as far as i was concerned they had won before the finale with that song,which of course they did.
The song if you listen to the lyrics goes to show the never dying spirit of the Nigerian,we have been through a lot as a nation yet we still have hope that it will be better,i mean i just left the country some months back and being where i am,i just wonder why can't we get our acts right and start to make things work for us,i mean it just takes discipline and dedication.
If you have noticed i have not critisized anyone or finger-pointed at those we normally blame,the reason being that enough of that has already been done and is still being done,i open some blog or online forum and you read comments from readers bad mouthing their own country as if the international media has not done that for us already,the truth is,if you do not have anything constructive to contribute then just shut up.
There are people in Nigeria striving to make it a great place to stay,i am here because i need to study and i have met people from other countries who can't just wait to finish the course and head back home to their country to start practicing,well i can't say i'm that enthusiastic what with the power supply,security and all ,but i do know one thing Nigeria is my home and i have to make it work,we will get there,i don't know when,but we will definitely get there.
That's the reason why i love the song from the group' THE PULSE'.It is called SOTE,i'll keep praying until Nigeria turns out to be good.CIAO

I LOOK TO YOU
I am at a place right now in my life where i can only look up to God,He alone is the Author and Finisher of my Faith(though at this point i would really want to write FATE)but God's word is complete,everything just seems to be happening at once but i know i will overcome at the end because' God is not a Man, that he should lie,nor the son of man,that He should change His mind.Does He speak and then not act?Does He promise and not fulfil'(Num 23:19).
I am rest assured that He will come through for me,i may cry,doubt,worry and become anxious sometimes, but it all comes back to my knowing that all these will not bring a solution,He feeds the sparrows how much less me,He will surely provide.He will be there right on time.I look to HIM.

God help me
This is the first day of my holiday and i can tell you that i have done nothing but look at my computer all day,i am either watching a film on it,reading an ebook or just browsing mostly for recipes,this in no way looks like my well laid out plans of practicing my drawing techniques 'God help me'.
Yes, i was looking for recipes online because i have only been eating pasta and tomato sauce since i got here and it is getting boring,i am a little careful now about what i buy,initialy when i got here i would just buy anything that looked nice,trust me i had to throw a whole lot of them away or give them out because my tastebuds just did not agree with them.
I remember my second day in Italy, i went out to buy pizza and somehow forgot that i was at the pizza mecca, entered a pizza shop and saw about 20 different recipes,it didnt help that i did not speak the language, so i just chose one that the name looked familiar, like i had come across it in a book,i put it in my mouth and knew instantly that i was in serious trouble,but what could i do,the last meal i had was on board the aircraft,so i had to kind of will my taste buds not to work and just kept biting off,chewing,swallowing and quickly downing it with Sprite it was not funny,but a month and half later i actually love that particular pizza.
Went to DUOMO on Saturday around 10pm,don't have a camera yet so dont' have any pictures but it was nice,stayed for about an hour and then left for home,got in around 11:45pm,can you believe that,i have never been a night person but i hear it crawls up on you here,i can,t even think of doing that in my home country unless i have my own car,but here i used the Metro and its really quite safe.
My not having a camera is really dealing with me, i have really seen some weird things and would have really wanted to take shots of them,to some they have seen it all,but this is my first time abroad as a mature person and even though i have come across some of these in films they just seem weird when you see them for real,i mean i was behind this lady as we were exiting the Metro she had on a gown and i was thinking to myself what a nice gown with a nice dragon print on it,but when i did a double take i noticed she actually had on a halter gown and
that what i was actually looking at was her skin with a very large tattoo of a dragon ,it did not help that the gown was her skin colour so i did not immediately spot the difference ,THE THINGS I SEE HERE.GOD HELP ME CIAO
