My first post on this blog was titled Enter Vera. I know you have no interest in knowing about it. You’re probably not even reading these words. You’ve probably just skipped straight to the pictures. Anyway, I figured that on my rebirth, I should come back bearing the same post title – with a slight variation, of course. Happy New Year. And happy viewing.
This was one of the first shots I took. He likes it a lot. I picked it because I can see my earrings. It wasn’t easy under all that hair. I shoulda gotten my hair done.
Not sure what look I was going for here. But I can tell you one thing: sitting on those balls is not nearly as comfortable as it looks. Those are not the balls I’m used to usually playing with. Err, I play with pool balls, of course. Not sure where your mind was going with that one *adjusts halo*
What? This isn’t how you update your blog — in the middle of the walkway — lying on the ground — dressed up — make-up done — almost-six-inch heels on — laptop sitting on the ground — strangers walking by and starring at you — in the freezing cold? Well, that’s how I update my blog.
Random Pictures
There’s no explanation for this picture, other than the fact that Femi (the photographer) came close to me and the sun was in my eyes. That’s it. Oh, and that’s Funmie’s hand in the background fixing my hair — just in case you were wondering what kind of gymnastic skills I used to put my hand back there.
Ehm, excuse me, Madam Funmie, I’m trying to take a picture here.
She thought my lips were not glossy enough, so she decided to add her own shine.
So whenever you hear Funmie denying her love for me, please refer to this picture. This time, there is proof. Although, I am sad to report that this romantic gesture captured above never did mature into a French kiss *sigh* But on the plus side, that’s him in the background. He was wondering why we left him out of the action.
Funmie was really God-sent on that day because if not for her, I can’t imagine what my hair would have looked like. First, I didn’t get a chance to get it done. Secondly, I suck at doing hair. Thirdly, the wind was working overtime, trying to remove the hair from my head and expose my secret. But alas, it was sewn in. In your face, wind!
He was given the strenuous task of carrying my shoes and he did it well. He does a lot of things well — like driving us to the venue *straight face*
If it looks like I’m forcing her to collect a kiss, then look again. Truth is, she was just so happy to be getting a kiss from me. That’s the version of the story I’m sticking to, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
I’m really, really grateful to every single one of you who have read and/or commented on this blog. Thank you so much. I’m short of words – mostly because it’s four in the morning and I’m tapping away at my keyboard instead of sleeping. Thank you so much. I’m gonna go to bed now and continue in the morning.
Morning! So as I was saying, by the way, if we look all warm and cozy, then we have done a good job at fooling you. Don’t worry about the sun; it was only trying to mislead us.The weather was actually freezing. My teeth were chattering the entire time. Several times, Femi had to say, “Vera, we have to retake that last shot; you looked cold in it.” Yeah, thanks for noticing, Femi. In spite of my smiles, missing jacket, and Funmie’s skimpy dress, the cold was actually numbing. I had to take breaks in between pictures to warm up in my jacket. Speaking of Funmie’s skimpy dress, someone please ask her why she was wearing that oh. She claimed she was on her way to work.*INSERT RAISED EYEBROW* I’m starting to think Funmie has changed her line of business.
Now, let me give some credits:
Femi of PaOsin took these pictures. Like I said in a previous post, he came there ready to shoot – pictures, that is. There are some things you don’t think about having a favorite of, like your favorite cook or trainer, and a photographer is one of them. It wouldn’t matter to you if you never used either. Though my pictures have been absent from this blog and all social networks, it is not a true representation of my pictorial life. In reality, I take a lot of pictures. Too many, maybe. And Femi has taken a lot of them. He’s my favorite photographer. He’s professional, punctual, honest, creative, and interested. I’ve had photographers that are just there to point and shoot and couldn’t care less what else is going on. If you need a photographer that is a photographer that is a photographer, check PaOsin (Femi) out.

Confirmed!!! It was indeed YOU that I saw months ago … Ironically, it was also on PaOsin’s blog … 😀
I loved the pictures, especially the one with you supposedly tapping away at your laptop … It definitely beats the “green eye”
Congrats on the Big Reveal, Vera … Oh, Happy New Year too!

Happy New Year, nwanne m.
Hahaha at the last one. You know what’s funny? I tried not to be sexy in the pictures, cause I was thinking, I want the readers to take me seriously. Now that I think of it, there’s no reason why those two should be unable to co-exist. Gbam!
Screaming in excitement! Vera….finally, your gorgeous face. Why have u been hiding? I love this. Happy New Year, dear.
Sting, I hope you know you are next!!

That half eyes you’ve been giving us since did not do you justice Adanma. You were well worth the wait.

No wonder omoba wants to rush you like indomie.. I bet he saw you and thinking this na the “proper thang” as we say here in UK..
You are very attractive and pretty, no more contributions on your blog again from me as I might fall in love….lol
Your blogs always strikes me as one bookworm with attitude, not realising you are blessed in a proportionate manner..
No wonder the guys wont leave you alone hence all the gist on men..
Nice one sis and Happy New Year..
Lol! Bia Funsho, don’t vex me ooo. You better come back here and contribute on my blog before I send bad boys after you. Per the Omoba remark, aaaashhhh, don’t let his wife “cash” you oh. Me and you no follow talk that one.
On a serious note, thanks a lot for the remarks 🙂
so i’ve been back n forth on here… numerous times since yesterday.. lol
Lemme just say this – that last pic? ehn ehn it wasnt about Vera showing love or appreciating the hours i spent in the “sunny cold”…
SHE WAS TRYNA SHOW OFF HER *BEHIND*
*whistling by*
Funmie, don’t be mad at me because I have small ikebe and you have none. It is not my fault oooo! You’re the one who came late when God was distributing it.
You’re (still) such a beauty, Vera! What a great photo shoot!
Awwwwww! Thanks, GNG.
I’ve been here 3 times now and I haven’t even read the words in the write-up. Na picture I dey look since. Make I try again… God help me.
Oh, did I say you look amazing?! And beautiful? And captivating? And that you look just like you sound/write? I love you Vera, 14 years or not. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Pearl!
Hahahahahaha. Thanks, love! You’re making my head swell. And I love you right back!
Next thing, she will say it’s a prank. No, I’m not buying.
Lol! I am not that bad naaaaah. Besides, when have I ever, ever pranced you?
I carried last but your pictures are fabulous. You and Funmie are hilarious. I can’t wait for the wrapper pictures in part two 😉
Caramel,
Lol! I even forgot about the wrapper pictures. No problem. They are coming soon. Lol. Me, I’m hilarious. Funmie is just plain ol’ crazy
Fabulous. Me checked the pictures out first, twice. *Hiding my face behind my hands*. Then I read the write up, then I checked out the pic u were tagged in which looks absolutely gorgeous by the way, n then am done with the comments n just adding mine. U were worth the wait. Nice time for unveiling.
Sylvia,
Lol. You really checked and checked for verification ehn? Hahaha. Thank you anyway, you’re totally awesome. Appreciate the warm remarks.
Happy New Year Vera!
The pics are awesome, and confirm that I have seen you before hehehe…
When is the wedding biko?
Myne,
Lol. Yes, indeed. You have seen me before. I had to deny it that time. Lol.
At last we get to see the crazy, eccentric Vera! You are gorgeous. Very different from the image I had in my head of you, I must say.
Well done for hanging on to your anonymity for so long.
I’m planning to be in your zone in the summer. Would love to meet you!
PS: Was I the only one scrutinising the photos for an engagement ring?
It is not an engagement ring jorrr! Don’t worry, when there’s an engagement ring in my finger, you will know. Lol.
Glad to see the reveal.
You are a lovely lady.
Lucky Him
We should talk…
Thanks, Tobenna. I know this comment has been a while, but when are we going to talk?
Choi!!! Nwa BABY!!!!! Fine geh toh badt! Choi (Have I said that before)?
That body ehn?!!! Omalicha something.
Happy New Year Bintiful!
Lol! Thanks, boo, you have succeeded in making me blush seriously.
The pic on face book was more sexy. I was hopping to see more of those lovely thighs and full bust so I rushed here but alas odiodi. Am going back to stare at the FB pic jare and try hard to keep me thoughts clean but if I don’t succeed na ya fault oh!
Bad guysssss! Just know that if I get pregnant, it’s all yours.
Well, I have concluded that I will never see Vera in picture but in person. I dont want to be deceived into believing this is truly you!
Lol! This is me oooo. Don’t dull yourself. Tehehehe.
Happy New Year dear….sooo pretty!!! Congrats on coming out the closet 🙂
Lol. Thanks! It does feel like I came out of the closet for real.
Gorgeous Vera. Good job team.
P.S. Can I have the bag?
Adebeke, warn yourself oh! I have a serious lack of bags. I got rid of most of my bags, so now I’m going through a defficiency as I’m trying to slowly build my wardrobe back up. My point is, back off my bag! Lol.
Meanwhile, thanks jare. So grateful that they were all there that day. Made it all worth it.
