If you have no idea who Muyiwa is, you should read this short post about him first before reading this one. So, when I wrote about Muyiwa the first time, most of the people that commented were more interested in what happened after the Igbo boy tried to rub my back and I allegedly ran away. Err, it was not alleged o! I did run away. But let me give you the conclusion of the story. Remember I told you that Bianca and I sneaked out of school? Classes were over at 2pm, but we always had to stay Read More
My Weekend Recount: Chisom’s Bad Ass Wedding
I cannot believe I left my blog stale for so long. It was not my intention. I’m sorry. So, as you may know already, I was in Texas last weekend for Chisom’s wedding. It had been at least 12 years since we last saw each other. But when I saw him again on Thursday, however, it did not feel like it had been 12 years. It felt like I was catching up with an old friend whom I had not seen for the past week. Chisom and his gorgeous wife, Chinwe. I think I love her. Let me tell you Read More
Reason Number 9058342 Why I Love America: I Can Join The Force!
I've had a broken tail light for a minute, and I've known about it for just as long. But I deliberately refused to fix it. Why should I fix it? I didn't kill it. In my quest to not get pulled over by cops, I adopted the first half of Romney's campaign strategy: deny. deny. deny. [The other half is avoid. avoid. avoid]. But on this fateful day, I just knew I could no longer hide. It was a Saturday morning, and a State Trooper was driving behind me. The only way I could stop him from noticing Read More
Vera Goes To Texas

My childhood friend, Chisom is getting married. Woooot! I have not seen him in at least 12 years, and I'm really excited. So the wedding is in Dallas - I think. I assume it's Dallas because I will be landing in the DFW Airport. It's my first time in Texas - I hear everything is bigger there - but I have not packed a single thing! They're all packed in my head, and it was only yesterday evening that I brought out a few items and just threw them together. While I should have been packing the Read More
My Weekend Recount: MCing Another Wedding
I’m putting up my weekend recount, and it’s Thursday already. The weekend starts again tomorrow. I’m going to make this recount short and sweet. Aren’t they all? This weekend, I got to MC a wedding that I was contracted to do a few months ago. It was the wedding of Aladi and Deji Rojugbokan, a very beautiful and laid back couple. After hosting The Verastic Show, I quickly got dressed and dragged my partner in crime – Igwe – with me. It was in Lanham, about 45 minutes away. I did the best I Read More
