Hey people! How's everyone doing? How was everyone's weekend?
Mine was quite eventful and random. I was chilling in my room in school jejely on friday jus before 8pm and then my brother(aka 'FALZ') flashed me(he never calls me). He is like, 'where are you?' I'm like, 'school duh! did i not say i wasn't coming for the concert?' 'He was like 'R u crazy? Its my first big performance! You have to be there blah blah'. 'Oh well! I don't have £35 gate fee o'. He was like 'i'd pay some jo, just come'. I felt important that he wanted his big sister at the concert, i mean he has like a million fans and enough friends but he still wanted sis to be there. Basically, brother is a rapper called 'FALZ'(you mite hv a heard of him or the single 'shakara'), he landed himself a gig at the 9ice in london concert, alongside Olu maintain.
Here's a link to listen to shakara on his myspace
That's how i now had to start calling my peeps and cajoling them and psyching them. Even Jaybaba was like, i can't come, i already told them i'm working 2mrrw cos we said we werent going anymore plus i'm very tired. I sha managed to get him back on board. There were 5 of us, jaybaba and i, my girl K and her man and my girl Tash. Thing is, they are all 'Falz' fans and we were all gonna go to the concert but the month has literally ended and everyone was broke so we jus all couldnt afford the VIP fee and we heard the non VIP area would be rowdy and you had to stand for hours. We sha hussled sha cos we are tight like that, some of us went into our savings, aunty flo was even visiting one of us but we just felt the need to go and support 'Falz' against all odds. I sha quickly packed somethings and jumped on the train to london. We all met at liverpool street station and then went to mine. We sha all got ready, we called a cab; fare was only a 5er, lucky for us the place was near my zones, like 5 mins away.
That's how we got there o and we saw 9ja people showing themselves. Some razz guys making noise, driving really fast, some sitting by the window in moving cars!!! As in Why????? Why???. We sha got inside o, that's how they now said VIP is now £5o. Jaybaba said to the girl selling tickets "ha, o fe embarass fine boy? Y now?" We sha paid £40 each! Just imagine that??? We sha went in sat down. Soon Falz performed, he did 'shakara' and 'Mr Big boi'. It was cool. Meanwhile the mc was one razz ass dude like that. Every two seconds this guy was like 'without fudar -ado'. Then he said 'make some love' and then 'show some noise'. Very razz. very annoying.
I made the biggest discovery in comedy that night. One band called themselves 'komo plastic'... i mean what the hell is komo plastic. In my life, i had never seen such display absolute lack of talent! Their whole performance was absolute jokes. They now had these dancers that had certainly been watching too much tv. One of them in particular must have watched beyonces deja vu too many times. Even worse she recycled the steps every 2 minutes. I'm not a stepper or anything but that babe was sumn else. The worst part is the sham of a performance lasted too long.
There was one other guy, koko or something like that. This guy came with durag, cap, blazer everything. Inside that hot place o. All he could do was point at his groin. This guy did not even have the decency to pretend to know what lip syncing is. He just let the song play and he focused on point at his groin and holding his crotch. Absolutely obscene!
Olu maintain finally came on stage. I was a huge maintain fan, i'm not so sure about olu on his own. I think he mite have lost the plot. I didnt really enjoy his performance, he was just shouting into the mic. He sounded so wrong and so off key. This guy took of his waist coat and threw it into the crowd, then his shoes, then his trousers!!! R u kidding me? What was that for. I remember when he was singing that fatima song, when he got to the kissing part, he leaned into the crowd with his mouth, Jaybaba said if he was one the girls on the first row standing there, he would have put his fingers in olu's eyes. LOL!
9ice on the hand was much calmer, he had much more decorum. He actually sang and not shouted like olu. His was a much better performance. Right after he went off stage, we left.
Meanwhile, trust your 9ja people, some fight had started and some people were ready to break heads.
When we got home we gisted till the sun came up. I even made yam and egg, we were hungry. lol! Jaybaba ended up calling work to say he wasnt coming in. We had a nice saturday lie-in together. I love those things! When we got up saturday midday, we just all lazied around, cleaned the house and gisted some more before everyone went to theirs.
I went to church on sunday, Jaybaba and had lunch right after church and then he took me to the station and i got the train back to uni.
B-day/D-day is 2mrrw lol! I have lectures till midday. Then i'd get on the train to london again and prep for dinner. Turns out we are not having dinner at leicester square anymore. Its in Soho instead and its Thai. Y'all are invited! I'd be expecting my bday presents o. Thanks in advance. I wonder what Jaybaba is getting me, i have no idea and of course he won't tell me. I'm curious sha.
I have to go and shower and eat now and get ready for my 4.30 lecture.
ANyways people! Have a lovely week! xxxxxxxx

Bits from my 4th Birthday...
Flashback...
Today July 22nd is my sister's birthday...
In seven days some many years ago, i turned 4. It was my birthday as well as my sister's naming ceremony. I still remember what my frock looked like. (Am i strange?) lol
My frock was pink and lacy, puff sleeved too... I wore knee high socks and trainers! Just thinking about the outfit now is traumatising, lol! oh well, i havent always been a style icon. It was a week day but in my school you were allowed to take the day off on your birthday, lol! and wear 'mufti' lol! I went to school with my cake and took pictures with my friends and went back home. How cool! Back home they were preparing for party. My cake was sooo nice, it was sooo sweet, i loved it and it had no icing o; even better, sometimes icing just ruins the cake especially if its not cream icing...
How's everyone's week going? Me i'm back in school o, how so uncool! lectures are going ok sha. Thanks for all your suggestions for my compensation.
Jaybaba got me the eye candy shoes i was talking about o, he is such a sweetheart. He works near the shop so i told him to help me check on the shoes to make sure they still had them in the shop. Thats how he turned up with a bag in his hands and my shoes in it. I was so happy! I love those shoes mehn, they are too hot!
As you probably figured, its my birthday on tuesday. Presents are very welcome. We are all goin out to have dinner at leicester square... who's coming?
Have a lovely week people!

Guess Who's Back (Continued)
Like i said i'd finish this post later... Aunty flo is almost all gone now so i'm feeling myself again. I'm one of the not so lucky ones when it comes to aunty flo. Depending on how evil she is feeling, i bloat so much i cant wear belts for any reason, i have to wear baggie jeans/dresses/tops. I get really awful cramps and i need very up to the task painkillers; over the years i graduated to 'Co-codamol 30/500'; its 30mgs of Codeine and 500mgs of paracetamol, cos its such a strong drug you don't get it off the counter even in the coolest pharmacy(sometimes you get the 8/500 which is obviously not as effective) you need a friggin prescription, imagine that. Speaking of which i'm on my last sachet, i need to get a new prescription. Need i forget the nausea, the loss of appetite and the feeling of weakness aunty flo brings with her. The cramps are still her worst attribute, i've had to go to the hospital sometimes for that to get a jab...
Long and Short of the story, Aunty Flo and i are sworn enemies. Because i don't like Aunty Flo so much, i take my mind off her all the time, most times i have no idea when her next visit. Jaybaba being the angel that he is keeps the dates. Sometimes you'd her me say, 'Honey, when is the next time Aunty Flo is coming?' or You'd hear Jaybaba say 'Honey, you might want to postpone that thing, Aunty Flo would prob be coming round that weekend'.
Unfortunately Aunty Flo is part of womanhood and since i have taken the brave step NOT to chemically induce a war against her(contraception), i have to live with her. Anyone wondering why i have taken that brave step, its because a) apart from the fact that i hate taking medicine b) i do not like the idea of gambling with my hormones c) i've been advised on the side effects d) i wouldnt 4give myself if anything went wrong...
Therefore, i look forward to being pregnant in the future! Being Aunty Flo free for 9 months must be heaven on earth. I hope it doesnt make me have 10 children sha, LOL!
Enough of this Aunty Flo talk, I'm sure some of my male readers are getting a bit uncomfy already, if the havent left gan sef, LOL.
Anyways, hmnnn you guys won't believe what happened to me yesterday o. I thought the end had come for 'EfJay'... I didnt even know what to do or think... I was wondering how i would break the news to you guys...
Ok thing is, Since Jaybaba started working in this new place, we dont get to talk when he is at work, we rely on txt messages + he has to get to work at 8.00am and trust me i'm still asleep at this time. So he usually txts me around 8ish to say 'honey i'm at work o, and i'm sleepy thanks to you keeping me on the fone last night...' or sumn like that. But yesterday i didnt get a txt so around 8sumn even though i was still sleeping i txt to say how are you, are ok? are you at work?.
Then i got up around 10, no reply or nothing. Then i sent more txts and then i called both his fones... and still nothing. I cheecked the time it was almost 11.00am, he should have been at work for almost 3 hours by now... i started to freak out... i was ha! my life, what if something happened to him on his way to work! I called two of my girls, to call him with landlines cos he has their numbers and if he is pranking me he'd know i told them to call and he wont pick up. They both used landlines to call him and still nothing...
So we were like lets wait a bit and then call his office, i dont want to raise a false alarm. My girls were like may be he left his fones at home. I was like yeh but i know boo, he would have sent me a txt with someone's fone to say he doesnt have his fones on him. I didnt bother checking my emails because he told me he is not allowed to use the internet at work(they have some stupid rules in that place) and he can't check personal emails at work.
Eventually i started crying, i imagined boo laying helpless on the floor somewhere, i prayed he was ok, i was begging God that i did not want to live my life without my butterscotch...
I thought to calm down and while away time so that at 3 i could call his work or go to his house since he gets off work at 4.
I decided to while away time by checking my emails. Then i saw the email. Title: boo, sender: Jaybaba@edexcel.org, time:8.24am.
Then i opened it, it read: Baby, I left both my phones at home… reply to this email… Love you… J.
I was more relieved than angry i guess. I replied the email.
It read: I've been worried sick about you........... I just started crying! I was just thinking of finding a way to call step ahead... I've called Kike and Tolu...
I didnt check my emails earlier because you sed you dnt check emails at work! Thank God u r fine! Pls don't do that again, ever!!!!
I LOVE YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING...
Then he replied, it read:
I am sorry baby, I should know your number in my head anyway… ma binu. Abi o ro pe mo ti breakup pelu e ni? Lol… actually not funny. This is my work email, it’s the only one I can use at work. Stop crying o. Pele. How are you feeling this morning? J.
Then i replied, it read: You are a big monkey... i was so scared, i dnt know what to think, mo ti fe ku sara mehn... i was imagining you laying on the floor sumwher passed out and ish... and i started crying and praying
And i thot could this be the end of our love OMG! I'd never date again and i'd kill myself...
I actually first thot u were pranking me, thats y i told them tolu to call you with landlines so that if thats what you were doing, i'd sha know you are ok, okan mi a de ba le...
INFACT, I HAVE COME TO A DECISION, YOU MUST TATOO MY NUMBER ON YOUR CHEST!!!!!! HOW ABOUT THAT? Obo!
Then he replied; it read: Lol… pele. Will you tattoo the number by yourself? So have you called your friends to tell them that I am ok? You know I will never hurt you now… mo luf e too mush for that. J.
As you can see Jaybaba caused me mental tortue so he is liable. He must compensate me abi what do you guys think? Me i'm thinking something along the lines of dinner, massage, one or two gifts to go with it... what do you guys think i should ask for? lol. Drop your suggestions ok.
Take care people! Have a great week!
Love
Ef babe
P.s. The beef has been sorted out, egbon mi and i have talked. I embrace buttercup as my sister! lol!
Translation corner
'Abi o ro pe mo ti breakup pelu e ni?' - did u think i had broken up with you?
'mo ti fe ku sara' - i was scared to death
'okan mi a de ba le' - my mind will be at peace
