I want Those Flashing lights

:)




I Want Those Flashing Lights Lyrics
You got your name in lights
But they can't seem to spell mine right
You sold a mil today
Today I'm lucky if I get paid
If I could get paid
I'd survive another day
Maybe if I could get played
They'd know my name

Your girls are fine it seems
A dime or two in every dozen
I only wanted one but I'm no one
So I get nothing
But all this nothing I've got
Is all that's keeping me tough
Maybe this thing I've got is enough

Ch.

When I'm alone and the lights go off
I'm never sure if I can make it that far
All that I know is
I want those
I want those
I want those flashing lights...

V2

You dropped the class re-wrote the books
and I'm still trying to pass
I'm at the back, professor, a question
what is the secret to these (flashing lights)
Is it just make believe
It's not easy
Wish it as ABC

You did your time
You broke your wire
And now you got your shine
I'm in the line
Lost in the crowd
Still trying to figure it out

Still trying to do it right
Still trying to find the light
Maybe not tonight

Ch.

When I'm alone and the lights go off
I'm never sure if I can make it that far
All that I know is
I want those
I want those
I want those flashing lights...

When you're all alone and the lights go off
Did you always know that you would make it this far
All that I know is
I want those
I want those
I want those flashing lights..

19 Sure Signs That You Are At a Naija Party


1. Almost everyone arrives at the party late - hence the reference, "African time".

2. You were given one invitation card, but you invite 20 other friends (who can also invite 2 or 3 of their own friends).

3. You call the attention of the people serving food by saying "Please we haven't eaten in this area o!"

4. Even when it was obvious that no alcohol was served, you still ask "Don't you have any alcohol?

5. At a kids party scheduled to start at 5pm and finishing at 12am, you arrive with kids (some of them already sleeping) at 11pm.

6. You go back to ask for more food and drinks.

7. You ask the caretaker of the hired hall to extend the party time by bribing him with money and drinks.

8. The food is served on a 'man know man' they tell you "the moi-moi don finish" despite the fact that a man next to you has 4 on his plate.

9. Most of the guys are frowning and cussing because fufu, semo, gira or eba wasn't served.

10. You hear, "Wetin dem dey wait for sef? I beg make dem bring the food make I comot jo!"

11. Towards the end of the party you see people going into the kitchen helping themselves to "take away" food and drinks.

12. More than two bouncers are at the door that leads to where the foods/drinks are kept.

13. You dance to "Obesere" or "Fela" music as if your life depended on it.

14. You ask the DJ to play a specially recorded cassette tape you brought with you.

15. You hear people talking, as if they are in a fight, about sports and politics.

16. The men are sitting in groups, instead of sitting with their women.

17. On the dance floor, you have women dancing alone or with women and men dancing alone or with men.

18. Most of the guys are hanging around outside, attending to "business" with cellular phones.

19. The hall empties immediately after food has been served.

Retouch my Body!!-jackie beat


Hey Guys!
Sorry I haven't been able to update my blog in a while cause i've been ummm...sleeping!!!!!! i'm on vacation!! gimme a break
so anyhow...I was on Perez Hilton the other day (for those of you who don't know, perez hilton is a blogger like myself but he dishes the dirt on celebrities--the good,the bad and the ugly. it's a celeb gossip website) and I came across the FUNNIESSTTT video ever...ok maybe not the funniest..but it was one of them for sure. It was a remix to mariah carey's touch my body by jackie beat-- wait for it...................a drag queen!!!!!!!! but don't hate...it was very funny..i will embed the video and you can see for yourself!! the lyrics are provided so you can sing along like i did =D



enjoy the lyrics

copyright Jackie beat

Jackie Beat, still young and sweet!
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah…

You know I’m gettin’ older
And I’ve gained some weight, too
In my imagination I am just 22
I’m way too busy to do Jenny, Weight Watchers, too
The fast food is to blame, cholesterol’s through the roof

If there’s a camera up in here that’s takin’ photographs of me
Then it’s true, that you
Must sign this confidentiality agreement right here
tellin’ you, what to do
‘Cause if you run the pics you got without the use of PhotoShop
I will hunt you down
‘Cause baby this is show business, nobody wants the truth
Don’t even try it, this is my diet

Retouch my body
Stretch me some more
Take off sixty pounds
Then take off ten more
Retouch my body
Re-size my head
Clean up my skin
Please tone down the red
Retouch my body
Lipo my thighs
With your computer mouse
I’m as big as a house
Retouch my body
Remove every curve
I’m goin’ to the mall to get a soft serve

Give me a tiny waist because I eat like a slob
Remove a chin or two and how’s about a nose job?
Erase under my eyes where it is wrinkled and dark
Your resume says that you worked on Jurrasic Park

If there’s a camera up in here that’s takin’ photographs of me
Then it’s true, that you
Must sign this confidentiality agreement in blood
or else you, will get sued
Cuz if I end up on Perez, Hilton lookin’ like a lez
I will hunt you down
‘Cause baby this is show business, nobody wants the truth
Don’t even try it, this is my diet

Retouch my body
Don’t wanna look tragic
So call In-dustrial
Light & Magic
Retouch my body
Make me look lean
Like fat-ass Oprah
on O Magazine
Retouch my body
Even out my tits
And make sure that this haute couture size 2 fits
Retouch my body
Blur it some more
Come on and give me what I’m payin’ you for
Retouch my body

I just want some gummi bears, I refuse to take the stairs
Make me fuckin’ young and sweet
Get rid of my celluleet
I don’t want no photo, boy
I want an oil painting
Retouch my body

Retouch my body
Don’t cause any trouble
I am in denial
Don’t ya’ burst my bubble
Retouch my body
Just look at Madonna
In real life she looks like
An ancient iguana
Retouch my body
And if you can of course
Try to make me look
Like less of a horse
Retouch my body
I’ve no other choice
I only wish you could retouch my voice
Retouch my fuckin’ body!

boys are stupid!! throw rocks at them!!!


that might be d pitiful sentence from a scorned woman...Me... i am scorned..well i am because some guy decided to put me off n on again!! i'm not a light bulb!!!!
what do guys want in a woman... yeah yeah don't tell me pretty, understanding,cooks well and all that..
why is it that guys always have this natural tendency to cheat... i mean even the ones that have the most gorgeous wives or girls ever... they still go and play "away match" with some other woman that is not as fine as their main squeeze!! whyyyyy??
during my girl talk period.. my friends convince me that long distant relationships entail the other party..especially the man.. doing long things.. while the girl is waiting patiently..WHY??
I'm like lets give them the benefit of doubt here..there are some guys out there that are actually patient" they laugh at my face and i feel a hundred times more stupid..because the possibility that they are 100% right is staring at me in the face.
so i decided to follow the campaign... of throwing rocks at boys!..
well not physically...because i will risk deportation.. its more of a mental exercise... you see a guy, throw a rock at him in your mind.. one down.,.. a billion others to go... more like an ally mcbeal kinda thing.. without d weird hallucinations...
girls... what will u do wen u r with d one you love and then he calls another girls name instead of yours
a. shrug it off shit happens
b. scold him and forget about it.
c. dump him asap... right at d moment! (ingrate)

it did'nt happen to me oo.. well it did once... and it was option c... i am a real extreme person... especially when its the name of your guy's ex...talk about the kind of shit a girl has to face...hiss
okay i know that was a random thot ... but its a pointer on why rocks should be thrown at boys!

special dedication

2 ma luvly friends who have been supportive of me pouring put my frustrations on this blog ...instead of their ears..because they are tired of my lamentions....u guys are d best..
i leave you with a video...and an advice
follow the ladder!!! (totally random... i know...i was seriously in tears wen i saw dis video..well tears of joy..and wonder......)...pay close attention to the ladder that goes up and the attempt at jocking and falsetto...damn... what a voice she got! (wink)

p.s you dont have to watch it to the end ooohhhh!!! ....enjoy

F.I.N.A.L.S


I so didn't want to do my AFM final (accounting).. but after so much studying. and a frequent reminder of the percentage i needed... i ventured into the hall.
as in right now im sooo mad.... really mad... cuz i know i studied... i really did... and as i try my best to assure myself this... the questions i face on the paper convince me otherwise...i sigh to myself... mehnnn this is shittt!!!
ahan... the prof did not even try for us... yeah yeah he gave us some accounting calculations in the cheat sheet.... specifically the ones we didn't need.
i did the old school exam habit... of staring intensely at d ceiling as if i expected the answers to fall off from there... when i think back now.. i realize i tried my best..there was nothing i could do... heck..some guy just did the multiple questions and closed his sheet without doing the theory.so i guess i am better off in a way...
who d hell am i kidding!!!!!!...im so screwed...
i dunno if it was my subconscious.. but i kinda noticed the prof give me a smile that plainly said " you shoulda come to class"

enough of that....matter's arising..(stories that touch the heart)
apart from the afm shocker, i got another one.sum guy friend of mine pierced his dick..
this goes to confirm that there are enough things that people will do in life that will make you just sit and stare.( not at the ceiling this time..uh maybe a wall or something)

i am in a sober mood for now..i wish i could torch my text book.. but that a $170 loss i am not able to cope with for now.
