Blogspot & Facebook

Can you still have a secret with all the networking sites springing up daily.
Well, men still got their adam's apple, for women.... I am never sure where we are supposed to store all those secrets waiting to be told. Facebook came along a few years back and people started putting all sorts out there. Despite living in three continents and all the minting and printing. Posting anything mildly personal on facebook gives me the creeps.
So when I got tagged by a friend on facebook, I sat down to write the 25 weird things, but never put it there on facebook. I decided to upload it on my blog anyway. Some 25 things about me.

1. I love cheesecake. Yummy!
2. At every point in time, I always have at least a hundred unanswered questions. Old habits die hard.
3. I don’t know how I swing it, but I seem to pass tough exams easily. Despite the fact that I worry myself to death a few days before writing the exam.
4. A few months ago, I used to take naps at the movie theatre. “Quantum of Solace” was so boring; I took another nap after the nap.
5. Back in those days, I used to dance Salsa. Yes o, I learnt a brand new dance.
6. My favorite Broadway show is still Phantom of the Opera.
7. This one is absolutely weird; my tear glands are out of tears. Confirmed by an optician. I obviously over-cried when I was growing up. Fogerrit, I still cry.
8. I refused to believe I am afraid of heights. It’s very weird because I never realize how afraid I could be until I get up there. Believe me, I practically die every time.
9. I am scared of dogs. Very very scared. Big, small, cute, special needs whatever. I am sure Karen is still having a laugh.
10. I don’t like cooking, although I know how to do it very well.
11. I used to dream of being a model and an actress as a child. I feel there is still a chance of being discovered.
12. Watching TV has never been my thing, although I watch it a lot these days thanks to LB.
13. I started keeping a journal as far back as 2001, last year I upgraded to a blog. Yippee!
14. I started my first book about seven months ago, can’t remember the story line anymore.
15. There are eight different sides to me. Even I am shocked as to how many different "faces of Tade" are out there. I can’t forget a face, at the same time I can’t remember a face.
16. I have only taken a driving test once in my life, and I failed.
17. Once I discover a song, I have to play it until I can’t stand it anymore. The current victim is “American Boy” by Estelle.
18. I love playing with my belly button. I know...Disgusting.
19. I always believe I can take on a little more, so I end up with an impossible schedule…..running from pillar to post. I don’t know who I am trying to impress with a packed calendar.
20. I am always on my side. As selfish as it sounds, I am always right, even when I am wrong. It is a thing of the mind.
21. I used to think 24 hours was too long a day, now I think I need about 6 more hours.
22. I don’t like winter – it is too cold, I don’t like summer in the U.S either. I totally hate sweating.
23. In a weird way, I feel very proud I went to the same school as Denzel Washington. Show some respect!
24. My favorite motivational book is “Who moved my cheese?” by Spencer Johnson. Once the cheese is gone, I am outta there as well. A sophisticated reason to appreciate my flee-ing feet syndrome.
25. Above all, I am totally blessed. I thank God for my life. I always find favor in unlikely places.

I will probably put this on blogger a million times before facebook.

Let the countdown begin!!

The wedding is 41 days away, can u believe that!!! I am panicking!!!
I went to the bridal shop to fit last Saturday!!! What a day! I spent the first 4 hours of the day trying to find an appopriate undergarment for my dress. Finally, I found something I think could remotely work somewhere in Mt Venon. So, we headed for the bridal shop (myself and Mrs O'). I can't say what I felt when I saw the dress, but I got into the dress and let the fitting begin.
It turned out that the back of the dress is absolutely transparent. We were shocked, I don't know how come we could not remember that about the dress. Guess, we have to roll without one. So so sad.

It seems the expenses keep growing, my body is beginning to ache from all the spending. I finally found a music band to play at the wedding. Not sure I was to use the MC sha. Now, we are talking sovenirs....uhm uhm. This will surely happen once in my life. Still need the last minute discussions to make sure things are rolling fine back in Nigeria.

I am beginning to calm down a bit about the name thing, not there yet, but I am close. I still have a few unanswered questions, any ideas?
