The Rere Platform: 2013

It felt good to feel like this again, most girls like me felt like this rarely and it was special to me. The unnecessary smiling and giggling just to be noticed, extra special care with looks and physical appearances. I vividly remember my best friend telling me how insane I was for doing all this… lol…

Sitting by myself in the library, nodding in tune to the ‘Omolepa’song I was listening to… I can’t actually place what made me raise my head but I did in time to notice him coming in

Intercession

The wind that blew over me was what I’ll describe as extraordinaire. Tall, dark but not drop-dead-gorgeously-handsome, he had this really mysterious and dark air about him, like someone who had problems in his carefully organised world. There and then I made up my mind to cause a real disruption in his life, he had to meet me!

The noise in the cafeteria was louder than usual, I couldn’t even stand the heat and bad odour. I felt someone hit me from behind while trying to make his way to the drinks section. The anger and annoyance bottled up from the days pressure exploded and within that minute I turned to face him with my devilishly murderous look…. Then I realised he was the one and like butter in a hot pan the annoyance faded and my face lit in a brilliant smile even before the poor guy could get out his “Sorry Story”.. Stupid me just peered at him from under my lashes and walked away.

Lola was saying something to me but my mushy mind was far away, day dreaming about what I hoped would be possible. My mind snapped back when I heard the words girlfriend and love. I asked her to repeat herself and Lola said she saw him holding a certain girl in a tight embrace and she was smiling lovingly into his eyes, he kissed her and said goodnight baby!

Headache for no problem, see how a nigga almost killed herself about a guy who didn’t even know her… I’ve been killing myself over a guy who is immensely in love with his babe. This is so not fair! Lola was starting to annoy me with her hysterical laughter, so I tried explaining that I didn’t care and I wasn’t interested in the guy in the first place. But deep down in my broken heart I knew I had acted silly and even dreamt about the possibility of an “US”.

All because of.. A silly crush!x

Joys Of Great Friendship

Our laughter blended along with everyone else in the cinema watching the movie with us, I took a deep breath after I had just laughed my eyes out. Sitting here with the ones that are most special to me, the ones that my world truly revolves around.
A Happy Birthday to this silly girl, Pelumi who I've know since I was just a little girl of 7, its surprising how we've not lost touch yet. She's so blunt and open in her ways, like a transparent glass. She'd never intentionally hurt me, infact willing to go lengths to make me happy. The awesomest girl I'll prolly ever know :)... I looked over at her at my far right and smiled!

Sitted inbetween us is Carter, he calls himself Loony One, the craziness in my life, he's the solid one in my life, taking the role of mum, dad, brother, best friend and even confidant, he's also the critic of my life... He's never missed any aspect of my life, practically growing up together for 9yrs now, Carter is a nigga I'd do anything for, I'm even guessing he has a secret crush on me :D its intriguing cause I Love him a lot! He's the kinda guy I'd like to spend my life with, one time he asked me, why are you so stupid? He gets angry at me and says mean stuff but I know he doesn't really mean any of it... Its funny I know but he's my life long friend!

This dude I'm gonna talk about is my chilling sexy almost drop dead gorgeous friend Temilade, I've known this nigga the shortest(going on 3yrs now) but damn he's a bombshell that dropped into my life at the right moment. He's a genius, superb personality and very very honest to a fault, I love him crazily and he's the friend that would say Hey, face your studies! You have disappointed me... And I'd be all sad and gloomy till he explained what I've done wrong and how to make it right :)

My sister is crazy, there are two sides to FiFi, the very cool, calm and collected one and the crazy yet cool side! We're often mistaken for twins cause she's growing too fast and I wonder why, Sighh... FiFi is hawt and she knows her way around a lot of things considering she has me for an elder sister *wink*... She's brainy yet a serious boy magnet, you know I used to think she wasn't even interested in guys, guess I was wrong. My mind switched back to the movie...

I smiled because I realised how blessed I am to have such craziness around me. The beauty of friendship is when you can be honest with each other and still laugh about stupid things... This is my very own family without blood!
If you have friends like this, cherish and keep them... And if you don't well I guess you'll never know what it means to have real friends :)!

Beware : They Are Everywhere

It feels good to know that people want to know stuff about the opposite sex, most people don’t just know who to ask or how to ask. So I decided to take it upon myself to find out how players roll.. Sigh it’s not a simple process trust me but I’ve not decided who’s smoother, the ladies or the guys. When I asked a few people this question, “How do players make their move?, I found out that guys have categorised the girls into groups, we have;

*The Novice (JJC)

*The Real good girls (Omo pastor)

*The Bad girls (Igboro)

*The Wannabes

So playing these different groups takes different ways, for the novice, guys act all sweet, nice and caring just to get what they want. This category of girls are the naive ones, guys will take u to the movies, then out for a drink. And then on the third date they’ll kiss the girl and still be the first to withdraw while apologising profusely for kissing her. That way they’ve earned her trust, on the babes first visit to the guys house, they will kiss and smooch but when the girl is starting to like it the guy will pull away and tell her she’s irresistible and he doesn’t want to disrespect her, the guy will beg for forgiveness and the girl will be so touched she will fall. The next time she goes to see him, he’s gonna STRIKE!

The real good girls are the hardest to play because it takes a really long time and apart from acting all nice and caring the guy has to sometimes go as far as joining her church or mosque and even meeting her parents just to make the girl trust him enough to drop. Some even promise marriage seff!

The bad girls will drop only if they want to; these ones have played the game for a long time. They know what they want and guys can hardly play them because they are players themselves.

And then, we have the wannabes whom guys don’t spend a lot of time and money on, it’s all about sweet talking them, telling them how good they look and shit. Giving them attention is all they desire, especially if you’re a fine boy. That’s why when the guys stay away for a while they miss him ’cos they’re already fond of him. This is considered to be the point of desperation when the guy can ask ‘em to do anything and they will. Tbh these are the cheapest girls if the guy plays his cards right.

I’m not trying to encourage players, neither am I trying to create doubts in anyone’s mind. No matter how careful you think you are, boys are smart, girls can be smarter.

What Do Girls Really Want From Guys?

A guy tweeted “what do girls really want from guys?” And I just thought why don’t we ask the ladies what they really want…

I carried out a research and I’m going to list the top 10 things a girl wants from a guy:

Presentable guys: every girl wants a guy that’s presentable, someone she can show off to the world and be proud of, that is well dressed, that has a good command of English and a good body build. So guys better get to work.

. Girls want someone that loves them, who adores them, I’m not saying you should worship the babe, but even if you don’t have money and you shower the girl with love she’s gonna stick by you no matter what.

As much as this will surprise you guys, the ladies want a God-fearing guy, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. If you are a God-fearing guy whether Christian or muslim, you’re gonna attract that girl you’ve been trying to get.

Next thing is ambition, most guys nowadays don’t have a plan for their future, girls admire a guy that is ambitious and knows where he is going in life. A guy that doesn’t plan on doing big boy with ‘daddy’s money’ all his life.

Now this is something that a lot of guys nowadays are lacking and that is respect, most guys don’t respect their girls; they talk anyhow to them going as far as denting their feelings. Girls are very special creatures so if you don’t respect them they tend to get hurt easily. Be proud of your girl no matter the situation.

I know a lot of girls are going to like this next point but it’s absolutely true, yes girls want a guy that is spontaneous, a guy that will pass by a store and think to buy his girl something special. She doesn’t have to ask you before you get her stuff, its little things like this that matter.

I mentioned that girls are fragile, so they need special care. Always pay special attention to your girl, make sure she’s okay and she doesn’t need anything. Don’t ever get over protective because it’s gonna freak her out. Pick up your phone and just send a message that’s going to make her happy.

This one is also quite important, girls want a guy that will make them happy. Some girls can actually afford to stay alone but loneliness is a killer. A girl is not gonna stay with you if all you do is cause her pain and sadness. Cuddle with her, joke together, laugh at people together and hold her when she feels down. Just make sure you give her a reason to blush when your name comes up.

Girls want a guy that’s honest, don’t lie to a girl and feel good about it. The truth hurts fine but if you say the truth she’s always going to respect that about you. And this always affects trust matters; don’t give her reason to doubt you or your love.

Finally, be a responsible guy. Be ready to take responsibility for your actions, don’t cheat, be ready to say sorry always and humble yourself guys, don’t let your ego rule your actions and speech.

Leave your comments on whether you agree or not, or if there’s anything I left out.
