My Weekend Recount: Layomi’s 5th Birthday & Loads Of Pictures!

Firstly, I am so sorry for not blogging for four days. I have been running around like a headless chicken, but I feel much, much better today. Let me give you a break down of my weekend. Friday: After work, I had to run off to the store to fix something. I can't say what because Igwe doesn't know what it is, and if I blog it, he will know it, and I don't want him to know it. After that, I went for a much needed manicure. I had an emerald green shade that I really wasn't feeling, so I was so Read More

Emmanuel Has My Number, And I Don’t Know Who He Is

I'm not crazy about Whats App, and it's for the singular reason that anyone who has my number can send me messages. I'm not much of a chat person (which is why Facebook chat is permanently off); I'm more available on e-mail. Chat means that I have to respond right now and possibly have an entire conversation, but I'm not always in the mood.

I always receive these messages on Facebook from men confessing all kinds of love, and I don't usually respond to them because I'm sure that they just type and send this message to random girls. But this time, I decided to respond. Read and learn. Not bad, huh? He has not replied yet. I'll update you when he does. Read More

Diagnosis: Boring

My people, it has happened. The news filtering the airwaves is that I am boring. And I wish it weren't true, but it is. I was talking to my friend yesterday and he determined (and I agreed with him) that I am boring. I don't do anything. Nothing. Let me explain my life to you: work, home, blog, church. Repeat. The painful part of this is that I am a fun person, I really am. The problem now is that I have a problem with leaving the comfort of my house to go anywhere, and I don't know when that Read More

It’s Vera vs Her Natural Hair – Part 1

My people, it has happened to me. Ever since I went natural, I have never, ever carried my own hair outside. And the reason is that (1) I never know what to do with it, and (2) It's a lot more convenient for me to just do something to it, so I don't have to bother with it everyday. That's why I love braids (though I hate sitting to get them done, and I hate taking them out). But this week, I decided to face my fears. So on Sunday night, I washed my hair very, very well. I deep conditioned Read More
