Who I Be!!!

ME!!! I actually find it hard writing about my self (weird because i just had to for my grad school personal statements). But yea..Ill get to the Serious, Fun, Silly, Smart, And Odd facts about myself...

(The Serious stuff)
  1. I am a proud daughter of the Most High. I gave my life to Christ summer of 09 and Ive lived a challenging but yet very fulfilling life ever since. I am ever growing and learning new things about my self and about God daily and i am excited to see where God is going take me... I'm ready to continue this journey with Christ.. (yet slightly nervous).
  2. I am also a proud daughter of a beautiful Nigerian woman (huhumm where i also get my looks) who I love ever so dearly... She has raised me to be this strong woman you see today. We have our ups and downs but she resides in a special place in my heart...
  3. Luckily for me I don't have only one mother... Huh??? Yep God placed many beautiful ladies in my life who have raised me to know everything about God, Life, Fashion, Makeup and *cough cough* Men... And of course many the Men of God that I look to for fatherly advice.
  4. I have two cousin/sisters and two brothers.. I have MANY cousins, family members, and best of friends that i adore.. (If you haven't noticed I am a family person and I am lucky to have such a blessed family).
(O.K. On to the other random facts)
  1. I cannot spell for nothing.. Spell check is my best friend.
  2. I totally love meeting new people.. but in my head I am nervous of what to say.
  3. I completely and totally and utterly HATE being tapped. Oh gosh it freaks me out.... (its knda bad how much it bothers me).
  4. I have natural hair (Nov 09).. and Ive been playing with different *mixes* that are starting to grow my hair... (he he inbox me if you are interested).
  5. I have grown to love working out (my stress release).
  6. I am in so love with the Traditional Nigerian Wedding Journey and I am definitely having the FULL experience.. (AH everythin ooooooh...de introduction, letter, gbogbo e!!!) 
  7. I'm interested in public Service and Iinternational Development work.
  8. I am in love with the art of Dance...
  9. I love to dance and attempt to sing...
  10. And lastly ive learnt to love me.. Because thats who i am best at being.

Not all 9/10 year olds are brain washed by the media!!!!

This video has seriously made me smile today. Its amazing to know and see that some young people recognise the lies that are being told concerning beauty in our media. Keep it up ladies!!!!
