I'm Back !

Hi to whoever's reading this... It's either this is your first time here or its been a pretty long time back since you've seen any activity up here. Well I guess writing is not so much of a hobby or talent for some of us hence d sporadic blogging. But I'm back anyway, albeit with a lil twist and tweak to the blog. A facelift and a change of theme from an ordinary blog to a photoblog is the main changes you'd notice.

Photography is a hoppy turned into work and I'm most definitely passionate about it and love every bit of my work or fun as the case may be. I hope use this blog to share with you, yes you of course, my journey into the world of "painting with light: PHOTOGRAPHY" !
Enjoy...

Here's an intro shot of my friend, Anne from a fun home-shoot sometime back. More to come... and thanks for stopping by. Cheers!

Gone 2 long...

Last post on here has been over a year now...
Not much of a writer I guess, but I still prowl around blogville to get a good laugh every now and then. I hope to try and write more this year, take a diff direction from photography that I've been absorbed in all the while. So u might be seeing more of me around your blog and more posting up on here, whoever is reading this. Drop a comment and I sure would swing by your haus.
Cheers and Happy Valentines Day, @ least if it means any more than just another day 2 you!

"Ise loogun Ise" - "Work: the antidote to poverty"

Ise loogun ise

Mura sise ore mi

Bi a ko ba ri eni feyinti

Bi ole laari

Bi a ko ba ri eni gbekele

A n tera mose eni

Mama re le l’owo l’owo

Ki baba re lesin lekan

Ti o ba gboju le won

O te tan ni mo so fun o

Agbojulogun f’ira re fosi ta

Iya mbe f’omo ti ko gbon

Ekun mbe f’omo t’o n sa kiri

Ma fowuro sere ore mi

Ise la fi ndi eni giga.

Well for those that understands Yoruba, that summarizes my resolution for this new year.That is a famous Yoruba poem that talks about hard work, making hay while d sun shines, and not playing your life away when you're young.Not sure whether that's d end though. Quite a few people that read Alawiye series will probably remember d lyrics of d poem esp if u grew up in a Yoruba speaking strict family. I'm sure all other tribes have something similar in their native languages. It's a real wonder where we went off course in Nigeria and the generations such teachings are supposed to inspire are turning out d other way.

Happy New New Year 2 all blogville inhabitants. As it's obvious, updating this blog is a challenge. I hope to work around that this year. Why did I start it in the first place? I guess just a way to share random thoughts and I had friends on blogville, and esp one Verastic encouraged me to start one. No regrets whatsoever but hope to improve this year. It's been almost 2 grueling weeks of examz now. Thats another topic in itself.

I just want to encourage whoever is reading this, that there's always room for more in your life,no matter the valley you're in or the heights you've been or are. Do something new, different, educating, adventurous... the list is endless. Just like a flash, this year will be gone and we'd be wondering and asking "what really did I do this year". For myself, I want to ask the question, "What did I not do this year?" come December 2008.

Have a great year y'all. Babz!

Get a good laff...

Blogging...

I try so hard (at least when I remember) to blog but I guess I ain't that much of a writer.
I'm more into images, pictures precisely cos I can't draw to save my life. that's why this
blog suffers more while I get to have daily posts on my photoblog and nothing happens here.
I love reading other blogs though, almost addicted to some sef. If you're reading this, leave a
comment and I'd definitely swing by your haus to pay my respect, but I guess i must've been
there thats why you're here.
A new week is here... I hope I can get 'round to doing some studying this week. haven't been
doing much of that lately,ask me what I've been up to, i ain't got a clue,but I definitely must
read this week. na money de waste small small go be that.
have a great week y'all

Dreams

Dreams!
A glimpse into the future,
A gift from our Creator,
To guide us into our future.
Tell me your dreams,
And as friends,
Together we`ll weave them,
With threads of Love,
Into fabrics of reality.


Please feel free to add up more to this...

TGIF!

To most people dt means partying&clubbing time esp. in Newcastle(partying and drinking capital of UK),for me it's just a break from a hectic week of school and a weekend ahead trying to catch up on review of d weeks work,laundry,cooking,a photo-shoot if I can muscle d time,church, and a little "faaji" as opportunity presents itself, "all work and no play,make me,myself and I a dull bunch."

All in all, Thank God It's Friday! or any day whatsoever. We(me,myself&I) get caught up with different activities, minute 2 minute, hour 2 hour, day 2 day, week 2 week, month 2 month,year 2 year, and we spent d most little of time thanking God for giving us d GRACE to see a new day,week,month&year.

Taking a clue from 36 inches on being grateful that I read, here are some things we are grateful for today...

being alive, well, hale&hearty (tho I couldn't go out much cos I'm stooling), it takes d grace of God.

the opportunity to get back in school and develop myself some more.

the immense support from my family, Mum&Dad, I couldn't have asked for any duo if i had d choice.Ur life(singular cos they are both one entity) together as I've seen is a lesson of a lifetime, I love you.

my 2 brothers, "fate made us brothers,but our hearts made us friends" love you both to bits (should learn to show that more).

my friends (seen and unseen,u know yourselves), I thank God for bringing you all into my life,you've all made an impact (one way or the other).

to God for His love, He gave His son JESUS, who gave His life that I may live. Without you, nothing I am.

It seems so little,but right now, this minute,I'm grateful for everything.

Have a lovely weekend y'all.
