THETATTLEGIRL

On my way home this night, i passed by a group of guys (road sitters) and as usual they had something to say.... Guy 1: See this fine woman.. Guy 2: This one don marry o Guy 3: Shey u get money for hand ni Guy 2: We sef get small money to spend na..... And i lost track of d convo as i moved further away, however rather than feel annoyed or irritated as usual,i was actually pleased,here is the reason . First i was putting on a short form fitting dress that showed how slim i am..  Although i usually prefer loose fitting dress to give d illusion of fatness 😁 that i lack.  Secondly,im on my natural hair which often enhance my baby face 😔 So i always feel i look small whenever I'm dressed like that,however the fact that they tot i could be married makes me believe i prolly dnt look as small as i think The words 'woman' and 'married' pleases me A Lot! Cos the battle of small stature is real,peeps......

On my way out earlier today, i sat behind a victim of this compulsion in the bus.... It was an eye sore, seeing a grown ass mam chewing on nails without any form of discretion.. The journey took almost two hours with the traffic,and for the whole of this period he was alternating between his left and right hand,transferring items in the  occupied hand impatiently so he could resume the habit without pause.. I had to virtually hold my lips with my hands to keep from rebuking him,it was really irritating Funny thing is there was practically no nails to chew again sef and the guy finally realised almost at the end of the journey, only for him to start chewing his cheek. It was like watching a goat regurgitate. I can't imagine myself sharing a plate with such a person. Whats your opinion on nail biting?

This ryt here for the yorubas dat don't know is afang sewp Last week wen i got to work (i tutor part time) i had a whiff of something fishy nd a bit spicy, as soon as i opened the door. Then i saw my colleague coming from the toilet with a washed hand, i immediately shouted 'bring it out' she laughed and said she haff finished it. Finish wat? Afang na, haven't you eaten it before. No i haven't. Eyah and its nice o I went to my desk nd started work. Today i decided to see what the hype was all about, so i called her to help me get on her way to work .  Well first, it tasted like normal vegetable to me, nice and tasty. The only highlight was the pim pim troway inside😁, i enjoyed that part.... I've decided to list all the igbo foods i avnt tasted. I've had Owo soup, banga and afang Next is edikaikong........... As a science student I've got to experiment. Have u tasted afang? How do u feel about it?.....

I was going through my messages like i often do and i came across ur messages that i refused to delete.....not because i want to hurt myself but because i want it to be a reminder, a constant warning that i shouldn't settle for less...................... . I miss you, so much that i drown myself in work and music, but most importantly i missed what we had, what i knew we had but which took u long to understand or perhaps still don't understand. . I miss the way i loved u truly,completely,the way i never thought i could love another... . I'll never forget u, I've come to terms with that, for u gave me what i never thought was possible,taught me wat i never thought i could learn, made me feel............................... . All i wanted was to love u completely for the rest of my existence,to give to u like u gave to me but u pushed me away, u felt i was clinging, my love was choking u,u didn't say it but u showed it. . perhaps u thought i was desperate

As an African child we are all familiar with this topic. Most African parents have a list of tribes their kids must not marry from and this fact is drummed into u once u hit puberty, so i'd like to share d list of tribes in my parent's black book with you...... The Hausa   My parents don't really have much grief with this set of guys as dey believe they are more accomodating and loving than other tribes. Their only offence is that they r potential boko haram nd dey tend to overshadow their wives. The Igbos There is no love lost with this group... there is absolutely no way this is going to happen, it must not...during final year days when dey stylishly ask of my boyfriend dey'll say ' Awon oko yin nko' 'E sha ma gbe igbo wale' they believe igbos are wicked, frauds and have evil mother-inlaws.......wen I served in delta, my mother made it a point to call at least once in a month to stylishly ask nd ensure that i avnt strayed from d right path (try a

As y'all know it's d season of love ND friendship, everyone went out in dia brightest and finest today...... ND TTG sef no carry last... Lemme take u through my day...  First,  I'd like u to know that this is my first official val since d beginning of time.. ND it's not ur regular val 😀.. Since I'm still single to stupor I decided not to be left out of d celebration this year so myself and a booless gf of mine asked and agreed to be each others Val.. The day started at her place at about 10:20  this morning with a plate of yam ND egg paired with a can of malt ... We den danced to some selections till about 3pm in the afternoon . We left the house around 3:30 ND got to the Maryland mall at 4:15 where we snapped pictures till about 4:45 before proceeding to d movies.. The Movie OMG this movie is amazing, if u avnt seen it u r missing...it was all I expected and more...... Way more!!  Comedy.... Check✔️✔️ Romance... Check ✔️✔️ Action...

I was coming back from work this evening and I passe by a group of people having a conversation, all of a sudden one of the men looked my way and sed 'Aunty yi fine o' then he went further to greet me but I didn't reply, look back nor acknowledge that I was d one he was referring to.... Why? Dt statement, rather than make me blush or brush my ego, upset me.........a lot!!! This isnt  the first time i'll be hearing this today or other days and i'm not saying it to be proud or anything but y'all say i'm fine, nice shape (although calling me sexy lepa irritates d hell out of me) Yet I remain single......hopelessly and unwillingly single, so wats d point? Who fine epp? Since fineness and sexiness has refused to get me a good man, I refuse to acknowledge these attributes. Call me plain, ugly, shapeless biko....if dt will get me a man abeg.................................................A Good Man!!!!!

Whew! This past month has been hell! Had to go offline for some reason then my phone decide to die, nd den I felt like dying too... Couldn't eat, couldn't sleep (like being heartbroken, damn I was heartbroken)💔 I was sad and restless I was miserable I was practically sick, I can't emphasize how awful I felt..Like being in d stone age! This gadgets are truly d father of all addictions I AM GRATEFULLY GLAD TO BE BACK!🤗 Now listed below are d things that happened while I was away ( a summary of d last one month of my life) I slept a bit, ate a bit ( remember I told u I couldn't eat)😣 I read lots of novels (only thing I looked forward to)😂 I stared.........................at nothing............a lot! Took a night ride in d brt alone ( twas just me, d a.c nd brt tv) it was cool on some levels😎 Sat with an elderly man in a public transport, d said man ate friend yam dripped in oil,licked all ten fingers ( d oil got on d left hand too,it was really oily)

I was called for an interview holding at 9am today,so I woke up bright and early at 10 :D. Its not my village pipu,its my spirit;  my spirit was angry,is still angry 'cos they sent me a msg saying 'due to cv review,you have been considered for an interview at.....' I'm like Considered? Not invited or found worthy? Of all d words in the dictionary....... . Okay that's a lie. There are four main reasons why I didn't go. 1. It's a business consultancy firm, TTG studied Science ( dunno how they got me Cv) and i'm supposed to attend the interview less than 24hrs of receiving the message, biko where's the time to cram? 2. I don't like interviewers, especially those google-eyed ones that look like encyclopaedias. 3. Uhm, I don't really like interviews. 4. INTERVIEWS MAKES ME NERVOUS AS HELL!!! (I can't emphasise this enough) . So with these few points of mine, I think and u'll agree with me that i'm not designed to work

 This hundred naira note you are seeing is all shades of patched,i dont knw how d thug managed to wrap it with my balance yesterday without me noticing. It was a note from h*ll, dnt mind that It's looking decent now........#isourworko Only God knows where this horrible notes are coming from, as if we don't av enough issues to deal with...... I'm sha nor looking forward to spending this money today, abi isit everyday that someone likes to fight ni? Pls we need this notes out of circulation.... Enough is enough,abeg!

I was gisting with a sister of mine this evening about that proposal video I talked about earlier and asides blaming the man,she talked about how ladies were desperate to get married without really knowing wat they are going into..... Then she opened up to me about her marriage.... Apparently the only thing that changed after her wedding is her marital status, Miss to Mrs...shikena! Her husband isnt romantic, whenever she suggests that they go on dates, he either shuns her or give her money to go by herself.......no couples talk, no watching movies together,no laughing (when is around he'll just be stronging his face,oga kilode) no playful touching except during sexual activities and that one is just 'touch and go'...like no affection, OF ANY KIND!!! She said she was so humiliated one day when they went to visit a family member and their food was served together. Husband refused to eat saying he can't eat in the same plate with her *Mogbe* my mouth was hanging

There's this video going viral online about a lady that proposed to a guy at the mall..... When I saw the video there were a few observations I made.... First it was obvious that d guy didn't love d lady. I mean d lady was on her knees for so long......even if he was gonna reject, d first thing to have done as a gentleman was bring her to her feet especially since he was gonna reject, instead of parambulating like an idiot. He should have atleast collected d ring and taken her to a more private place Perhaps the lady had seen d sign of unseriousness in him dts why she decided to take that step..... Then to disgrace her by rejecting, whispering to her that he's married and then leaving her there, Haba! How heartless is that? I mean d lady must have gathered all the liver in this world before trying to pull that off! Thank God she took that step though, otherwise she would still be in dt relationship hoping and praying for something that would never be..... De

I came across this movie today on my system and I tell u it's Awesome! Especially for music lovers like myself, y'all need to see it! I'm sure it's one of the movies i've had for years and I never knew I had something this Amazing.... if u've seen Anybody Can Dance then u gonna love this too! Just like ABCD, Fame has bin added to the list of movies i'm Never deleting.... Malik, who is in d image above, is my favorite character...although stubborn and defiant, he's d definition of Strong, Resilient and a Survivor. The movie talks about the effects of failure and rejection, the feeling of not being good enough, Depression.... To you, who is fighting for strength and hoping for a change. To you, who is rejected, scorned and never celebrated. To you, who is unloved, depressed and praying for a miracle, You are not Alone, You are beautiful in your Uniqueness, You are here a a Special Being for a Special Reason. You are Brave and Strong.... A

I went to visit one of my close friends yesterday, she moved into a new apartment that boo helped her get last month and I hadn't been chanced to visit since. When I got there,after d usual banter and catching up...bae started gisting me about d recent happenings. Apparently she had been living a couples life with boo in the new apartment and she's started feeling d effects of a married woman,but........thats not the main gist. Boo said he wants his son, whom she never knew he had for the past 3 years of dating, to come live with them........ Then one son became 3......3 solid boys! I mean how can u date a man for 3 years and not know he has a child not to talk of children, there's got to be signs. He's divorced with the mother, but still which single lady in her twenties will reasonably go for a divorcee with 3 kids! *mogbe smiley* 3 boys for that matter! Personally I can deal with one, no one is perfect but thats my limit. Now the first son is living with th

Aside from looking like a pole,i av an array of body demons I fight from time to time. I spent my night being a night watch woman because my tooth decided to become my enemy....see, nobody is to be trusted o, even ur body can turn against u...mum woke up severally to glare at me for pounding the floor in agony and then sleep back. After doing dt all night, she finally stood up around 6 to offer me chewing stick and prepare for work...I looked at it thing like *cringin* dis is for old people na, but when illness hold u u'll try anything.... I tentatively put d stick in my mouth and started chewing and to d glory of God d pain was reducing like magic..Ah! Why evils na? dis woman could av given me dis thing since yesterdae but dt African mothers thingy made her punish me for all d cookies and gum i've bin taking...... Anyways i'm supposed to chew a small part of d stick but i've almost finished d whole thingy, shebi anything worth doing,is worth doing wel

Presently i'm starting to believe dis thingy about village pipu o,is laik dey r not joking o cos dey r out to get me,ah! Aye mi,My life, wat I do? Isit only me ni abi kiloshele gangan, cos ayam nor understanding again. Right from d time I grew to d omidan stage d pipu always asking out with serious mind are either abroad or potential abroaders. Infact my recent ex is abroad and dats part of d reason why we broke up,it jus wasn't gelling...so I decided to look for my Nigerian prince charming on a lowkey. Middle of Last year, I met two guys, one was abroad already *mission aborted*, d other was professing love upandan,will nor lemme rest o,so as,i was still planning to give it a trial Das how boda told me he's going abroad dt he would prefer if I even carry his child before going, ehn! Iro, Emi kor, isnor me nd him, dis one af seen incubator,das how TTG carry race o, any power dt wantu turn my destiny to baby mama, die by fire! So late last year I met a guy through a mutu

I'm sure each of us has one or two of these kind of friends in our lives, friends dt only remember u when they are in need,in pain or plain bored...These kind of friends are d ones that place u on their shoulder unlike true friends that put u in their hearts, they place u on their shoulder so that when they no longer av need of u,they drop u like it's hot! Let me tell u about such a friend of mine,lets call her Lady B I met Lady B when we were in fashion school, then being a person that doesn't make friends easily until i've studied my environment, I was often on my own. Then during our group practicals, d lousy ones will quickly run nd form their group leaving us dt were reserved behind. On one of this occasions I was paired with lady B nd some guys,however being d two ladies in d group it was only natural to stick together. Long story short,we became friends,i discovered dt she was married although we are in d same age group,we were practically inseperable nd starte

After all d brouhaha with me and my rumen dis morin, I still managed to drag my bony sef to work. U knw wat dey say about a day dt starts bad, first d bus I took was driven by a snail,slinkedy, slinkedy do,stopping at intervals,so d conductor who is also d co-driver goes for routine checks, at work it was a straight face kinda day unlike my jovial self...so on my way home I decided to try nd get home in d least stressful way nd decided to take d brt,so I can sit comfy nd listen to my music.... On getting to d terminal there was a queue, as usual nd I decided to wait some minutes den accept my danfo fate.....some minutes turned to an hour since I didn't av a wish to turn to jelly by trying for danfo. Finally d bus crawled in about a hour and 'some minutes' and I rushed to d ticketer to get a ticket, guy said 'stay on d line,m coming der' so I went back to wait,rocking on my heels as d soon to be idiot was using us to chat without a care in d world. Finally he saunte

I woke up dis morning to find dt lightning nd thunder has changed location to reside in my very inside, for what shall it profit a girl to gain 50g nd lose 3kg,people of God dis bae is tired,to think it was just last week dt I was celebrating my newly found 2kg to complement my 48kg body weight I add before only to be mourning d loss of my precious 3kg barely a week after ehn,ontop wat sef,wat af I done dt human pipu afnor done before..... Ok dis is wat happened o,yesterdae as I was coming home one of my well wishers gifted me a bottle of soft drink nd I tot it would go well with my ginger noodles at night but as fate would av it I mistakenly ate it with H2o cos I was distracted with d movie I was seeing o,so much later I had a phone conversation dt seemed like d vintage midnight call with a friend nd ended d call past midnight. Now there's something about talking too much dt empties ur reserve nd so I wasn't able to sleep, a hungry man is a restless man, so I thought of gett
