Dead Man Walking (To all suffering from the loss a loved one) “So, this is where you hide out?” she asked looking round the large but simply arranged bar. It was elegantly set with six tables for two resting at the walls on one side of the room, three tables for four clustered in the middle, a big bar at the front with very high stools facing it and a bar-man dressed in white shirt and boat tie with a bright smile. She could not make his trousers as he was behind the big bar. On the other side of the room were two double-sitter sofas placed close to the walls and a three-sitter sofa that divided the room in half dividing, there are tables in front of each sofa. She smiled at her fiancé, taking the first sip from her glass. “Not bad, not bad at all” He smiled back at her still expecting more words “it looks elegant, simple, not too stylish but elegant, nice and the finishing, I like.” “Hmm… ” he finally speaks, “the inner eyes of an interior decorator” they shared a...

Before going to bed, I had to eat something. I opened  the fridge and yes, all the things in my fridge had  turned to block; the light had been on for 8 years  without going off. I finished eating and went to bed.  Oh I have to reduce the speed of this fan, the voltage  is so high.  I woke up very early in the morning to the sound O̶̲̥̅̊f̶̲̥̅̊  classical music.  I casually strolled into the bathroom.  Oh!  the cold is too much this morning, I turned on The  hot-water tap.

I got this from a friend on nairaland and I just had to share it, hope you find it enjoyable and useful too. I know I did... Ten ways to avoid marrying the wrong person 1)  Do Not Marry Potential:    Oftentimes men consider marrying a woman hoping she never changes while a woman considers marrying a man she hopes she can change.  This is the wrong approach on both accounts.  Don’t assume that you can change a person after you’re married to them or that they will reach their potential.  There is no guarantee, after all, that those changes will be for the better. In fact, it’s often for the worse. If you can’t accept someone or imagine living with them as they are then don’t marry them.  These differences can include a number of things such as ideological or practical differences in religion, habits, hygiene, communication skills, etc. 2) Choose Character over Chemistry:     While chemistry and attraction are ...

A TIME TO DIE By Nnochiri, C. AdrianPastol (Dedicated to all waiting on death) “Emeka… Emeka… Emeka…” He practically screamed his name now –“Oh! Ikenna, am so sorry, was a little lost for a minute, when did you come in?” “When did I come in?” replied Ikenna with a puzzled look. “Mekus” that is Emeka’s nickname and what all his friends called him including Ikenna, his closest friend, confidant and room-mate. Though they are in different departments and took lectures at different periods and locations, they still managed to always be together. They had the same friends, visited the same people, ate at the same canteens, hung out at the same spots, went to the same parties and clubs… it goes on, and they have been room-mates for over the two years they have been in school. They have also become very well adjusted to each others’ habits, like the fact that Ikenna never shares any of his personal things with anybody and that includes Emeka his best pal, or the fact that Emeka loves...
