Dinner-Date Wit My Family

So i finally went for the long awaited date with my entire family – yes all ten of us. I was really scared of the what the result of our date will be. You know how it is in every family; every one thinks everyone else is the black sheep of the family.

Anyways, we went to an all you can eat buffet, which i was happy with cause I knew what I was gonna eat – I eat the same thing (mashed potato, lil pieces of steak, hot roll (bread) and a huge bowl of sliced peaches). I cannot count how many times I had to stand up. First time, I took the three kids to get their food, and of course, they could not decide what they wanted to eat. The two kids from Nigeria kept frowning their faces at almost anything. The faces they made were embarrassing the hell outta me. I kept saying “stop doing that to your face!” Nna nawa o. I don’t need to tell you that other kids will definitely be making fun of them when they start school. I feel for them oh.

As soon as we sit down, someone will say “I don’t want it anymore.” Ah ah! Oh well. I sha made sure that I ate my fill, even though I probably lost half of the food I ate because I had to constantly stand up and walk around to get something else for one of the kids. Those children sef.

I’ve been working on my book – thank God. Simeon, read my book (well, part of it) and really loved it, and that really helped me. Encouraged me a lot. Funmi and Ibukun have also read part of it, and they love it. It is so encouraging when they tell me how good and funny it is. It makes me wanna work harder to finish it. I really wanna finish it by June 30th 2006, so pray for me that I finish it.

Well, I’m really tired, so I’m gonna go to bed now.
Good nite.
