#Much Ado About Wedding(s) (Part 1)

image from laughingcolours.com
Getting married is seriously in vogue right now, its kinda the new black 'cos in dis time n age you see people planning out their wedding on their first date. Its quite sad that people are more interested in the process of getting married than being married itself once the novelty of getting married wears off reality usually hits and making it work becomes a problem but then again what do i know about marriage? Huh? Though, I Love wedding ceremonies 'cos no matter how small you make the event it's a big celebration of love. Basically i'm a love love kinda person, helpless romantic extraordinaire, as a matter of fact at one point some of my friends nicknamed me 'Love Doctor' (Lame right? I thought so too See-no-evil monkey) anyway considering the history of my love life its kinda ironic but that's another discussion for another time.. my point is i love wedding ceremonies whether Traditional, Court, or white wedding i'm a fan of Love but these days people focus more on the ceremony than the actual institution and reality of marriage, seems to me like people spend more money/time/energy on impressing with d ceremony than they do on d actual marriage, seriously i do not get how you can spend $13 million dollars on your wedding ceremony with two thousand(2,000) guests and not make it work...How???!!! Biko explain to me! How can you get a divorce after that? How? but then again what do i know about marriage? I'm just a random unmarried girl that has an idea of what marriage and the ceremony should be;

Firstly, what do i think of wedding ceremonies? Ans: it should be an intimate affair! i'm in love for Pete's sake, i only wana share that with family and friends (close friends by the way, people that actually mean something to me, people that contributed to my growth one way or the other not random people that are only interested in the free jollof rice and the opportunity to shag desperate lonely dudes/lass, or people that are only interested in looking good and making the 'Owambe Guest Look List' on #bellanaijaweddings) my point is i'm going to be quite picky about my wedding guest list, below are some of the people that wouldn't make my wedding guest list-:Grinning face with smiling eyes
  • 'cos you live opposite my house and say hi to me every morning doesn't make the cut. ( I did not see you this morning so here's your hi, 'HI')Happy person raising one hand
  • 'cos you once helped me change my Tyre doesn't make the cut. ( the chocolate box i gave u last Christmas is a good thank you, don't u think?)Smiling face (black and white)
  • 'cos you said 'bless u' and gave me your hanky when i sneezed in the elevator the other day doesn't make the cut. ( by the way, i'm coming by to return the hanky)Grinning face with smiling eyes
  • 'cos you invited me to/for your wedding doesn't make the cut. (we all know you only invited me to rub it in that ya married and i'm not, its okay by the way i forgive u but ya still not invited).
  • 'Cos you keep space for me in church every Sunday so we can gossip and judge people endlessly which is actually strangely fun especially when we laugh at how some girls draw their eyebrow(don't judge me), doesn't make the cut. (seriously, its the house of God, why do u keep saving a seat for me? There's no space keeping in heaven oo)Face with stuck-out tongue and winking eye
Anyways my point is..... (to be continued)Smiling face (black and white)

P.S~ who isn't going to make your wedding list? READ, COMMENT AND SHARE!!! xox

Random Things You Shouldn't Do!




  • Don't use up all your clean pant/bra/singlet/boxers and then start to turn it inside out 'cos you are too lazy to do laundry. (common!)
  • Don't leave 10 missed calls on my phone! seriously except you are calling 'cos you just found a DNA test proving i'm dangote's biological daughter that was stolen at birth in which case you can keep calling till i pick, don't do that.
  • Don't lie, seriously if you don't know something just say so, don't lie to save face. A girl was asked on a first date if she had ever eaten pedigree before and she said yes, that she likes eating it with hot dog, seriously she eats dog food with hot dog? (in-case you don't get it, pedigree is dog food!)
  • Don't ask Jamb Questions! Person dey stand for your front and you still dey ask "ahan guy you neva go ni?" (duh!)
  • Don't keep someone waiting by lying that you are almost there when you are still at home watching empire.(the fact that i do this isn't the point)
  • Don't say 'i'm good, thanks and you?' when someone says 'Hi'. (who asked you story? just say hi back and move on)
  • Don't say 'where did you put it' when someone is looking for something! (seriously if i knw where i put it, would i be checking under the bed, under the couch, under the television, inside the dustbin and even inside my pot of catfish!)
  • Don't tell an angry person to calm down, i know you mean well but you are only fueling the matter.(chances are the person would end up pouring the aggression on you)
  • Don't decide to go for MTN PROJECT FAME AUDITION 'cuz u think you sound like Dolly Parton/Tiwa Savage in the shower. (This one is a topic on its own cuz i just tire for some people)
  • Don't ask for my advice if you are going to end up doing whatever you like! (seriously y'all should listen to me more, i have stopped a lot of world wars from happening, you can ask around.) :p

oya comment and share your own 'random don't dos'...

Don't you dare laugh at me!

Okay so seriously don't laugh at me because i know in your mind you are like 'she started her blog after the whole Linda Ikeji's half a billion house story went viral'! And fact is you are not far from right! Been postponing starting a blog for a while(because i tend to start things and leave 'em half way) but after i saw pictures of Linda Ikeji's House i was inspired to start, 'cause seriously who doesn't want to build a house worth half a billion?!!!
