Farewell and thankyou to everyone that stopped by this blog and took out time to read my ramblings. This blog will closed down and I shall start another one sometime in the future. I will still be around reading blogs and leaving comments whenever I can.

Life

You have life...celebrate it. Envy is a waste of time, you already have all you need.

Why can´t a successful black woman....

I came across a video on the ybf blog I normally frequent about the lack of partners for successful black women in the U.S. I do not live in America so I do not know about the dynamics there, but it seems this is quite a big deal judging from the many videos and articles I found on the net concerning this particular issue. I´m curious to find if it affects african women living in the U.S as well. I embedded part one of the video, subsequent parts are on the youtube website.

Reminiscing

It has been a while. This song brought tears to my eyes. I miss my homeland.

Just when I thought I have been set free from spam emails, I received another one yesterday.

Maga no need pay, I hope the message in this song gets across.

Watching the news

First of all, a happy new month to everyone. I know, we are smack bang in middle of april but it is never too late right?. Recently I have discovered that I have an apathy to watching the news. I find it difficult to sit down and watch CNN or BBC24 or any news channel for that matter. I noticed this after the haitian earthquake in January, I just hated listening to the news, because it seemed like all there was to report about was tragic.

Funny enough the only newsbulletin I can tolerate right now is the AIT International newshour(nigerian television network). Maybe because I want to still hold unto the little things that remind me of home. Those newscasters looking so chic in their ankara and gorgeous jewellery lol. I still check out BBC online and the times magazine website from time to time.

I write this because I just logged onto yahoo to check my mail and I came across this news article on the china earthquake and its rising death toll. What is happening?

March 8th

Today is the last day of the month of march 2010. It goes by very fast doesn´t it? Anyway march 8th was international womens´day. I know... I know, it is little late but nonetheless I wanted to still make it known somehow. I love this song African woman by Onyeka Onwenu. Although she centered on african women, it could be applied to all women across the board. Enjoy!
