I woke up by seven on Saturday like I had told that doubting
Thomas Jennifer girl. Set myself to my hair and loosened it in less than two
hours. I have to say my hair is not growing longer but bigger. Koch and Ify (my
latest crush, he will kill for this. I love you honey) have started calling
Huey from Boondocks (unnecessary exaggeration). I don’t even
know what the niggas hair looks like.
Washed the mini monstrosity of a hair and had my bath. With
that out of the way I waited for the almighty beans they were cooking to get
ready, the wait looked like it would be too long. I went back to bed.
By the time I woke up, I couldn’t see in front of me. Hunger
was my new sight, so I walked out and looked for garri, which I got. When I was
walking back into the lodge I saw Gbade coming from afar and I took another
path. There was a point where he would have gotten to and he would see me. To
avoid that I almost ran (true to God) but I didn’t and because he is trying to
mend that stupid thing he did he yelled a greeting out to me and I replied with
a grunt. Kidnapper still wanted to see me but I honestly could not be bothered.
I don’t want somebody to come and spoil me I am a good child ( I know that is
not what he meant)
Had my lunch of beans and plenty garri. As I ate I watched my
Dark Angel and almost forgot I had a movie to get to. Oh yes that is true I
didn’t tell you guys. At Ray Power they have this show where you call, answer a
question correctly and get a movie voucher that gives you free access to a
particular movie with free popcorn and a drink. So I had asked my boss to give
me one of such tickets and she had obliged. I hadn’t been to the movies lately;
no money.
So I earnestly looked forward to this movie which is why
missing it would have been disastrous. I got to the cinema at the time they had
said the movie would start and I saw Alex there. The previous day when Alex and
I had had a chat I got to find out his numerous nasty nicknames, some I can’t
be bothered to remember. Did I say some I meant most; the only one I remember
is Sugar Puff Daddy. Like I really don’t know what that means. Al ex is not a
tall, dark and handsome nigga; he is a short dark and handsome nigga. That
loves chicks BBB (big bold and beautiful). He is a cool dude in all. Well I saw him and he said they movie was now
for 6:30 this was a movie that had been initially scheduled for 5:30.
No
qualms, I asked Alex where he was carrying his ass to and he said GQ lounge.
That place had a retarded name; the full meaning of GQ is Gentlemen’s Quarters
which makes the name of that mumu place Gentlemen’s Quarters Lounge? Like shoot
me. And the worst part of this place is that every night they disturb my sleep
with their terribly loud music. I got in with Alex and it was just there, like
just there. I met his friends and I thought one of them was cute but all he
wanted to know was if I had any friend that looks like a model. He kept saying
fit. With each time he said fit I wanted to hit something. Alex likes BBB girls
and he likes fit girls. I just have to say that the general conversation was
funny for me and disappointing for them.
By the time we got back to the cinema I parted ways with them
and found my way to a seat. Few minutes
later they dragged themselves inside.
The movie was fun, a lot of laughs and Nicki is just hot. I
swear I have no words.
The movie ended and I found my way around Shoprite and then
home. There was no food for me so I had coaster. Oh yes! I forgot I am poor. I
have never been this broke in my life. Prostitution seems like a great idea to
me right now. (Layo thinks I’m joking. Somebody tell her I am not)
After night devotion I had a talk with Churchill and his new
shadow was hanging around him like usual. Like I think of two of them and my
empty stomach churns in anger, what do you think happens when I see them
together? Good thing he is going away this weekend.
The rains fell heavily and I just had a terrible night. I
kept waking up and the mosquitos didn’t leave me alone.
To compound matters Gentlemen’s Quarters Lounge (SMH) was making a
lot of noise as usual. Mumu People.
