I'm going to do this tag thing that is going around cos i have been tagged by Ms.Ibhade, Myne and Adede, but i do not have the presence of mind to come up with questions or tag anyone.
11 random things about me
- I cry when i'm extremely happy about something.
- I went to two different all female schools for JSS and SSS. I liked my JSS better. The girls were more like family and less competitive bitches.
- I used to write and draw but the last time i wrote or drew anything was 2008. In boarding school, people used to wait for my "novels". Life/trying to get into med sch/med school has dried up my creative juices.
- If i could only have one child, i would want it to be a girl.
- I really enjoy watching Food Network and that's the only thing i miss about not watching TV. Yesterday was the first time i turned on my TV this year.
- I love looking at pictures of beautiful, sexy food but oddly enough it never makes me feel like eating it. I just like looking at pictures of food.
- Friendships are all or nothing for me. If i don't like you, i won't deal with you in any capacity. If i don't trust you, i won't deal with you. Frenemies have no place in my life. I can count my friends on one hand.
- I can't deal with people stress and i don't suffer fools gladly. I'm beginning to think i can't handle too much stress, period. I have a bald patch right on top of my head from when my hair fell off within the last month due to stress. I was horrified when my friend took a picture of it and and showed me. It's called Telogen effluvium.
- I can get really pissed off and curse someone out within an inch of their lives but my anger never lasts more than a day. My bark is a lot worse than my bite. You just have to know me to know that.
- I have a high need for cognition.
- I may or may not have developed an anxiety disorder in med school.
Questions from Ibhade
1)What hairstyle are you currently rocking?
99%-100% of the time, i am rocking my natural permed hair. I am considering getting braids though or going natural. I don't know anymore. I want to shave my head sometimes.
2)How long did you spend in primary school? 6 years
3)What is your naughtiest moment ?
I went to boarding school so i can think of a few. In JSS 2, this senior sent me and my friend to go get her some drinking water in her bottle and she was quite nasty about it. You know the way seniors are. So we went and got her water :) To be quite honest, i don't remember exactly whose idea it was (probably mine), we decided to add some spit in the water and shake it up really good and we did. We gave it to her and watched in satisfaction as she drank it. I'll just share this one, before you guys think i am a devil, which i was :)
4)How do you express your anger?
Anger! Bane of my existence. I am a yeller. I have to get it out to feel better. Thankfully, it doesn't happen very often mostly because i stay away from people who rub me the wrong way.
5)What would you spend your last penny on?
A good bra. I think bras are an evil invention to begin with. I'll just stop there.
6)When was the last time you treated yourself to a niceeeeeee warm food?
On Friday afternoon after my exam and after i had successfully convinced myself i failed, i decided to treat myself to some boneless spare ribs and white rice to reward myself for making it through the week. I hardly, if ever eat out or buy food. I like to cook my own meals so that was a treat.
7) Who was the last person you said "I love you " to? My madre
8) What is your favourite take away dish?
Like i said, i hardly ever eat out (i think i buy food like once or twice a semester). I used to like General Tso's chicken but i haven't had that in years. I'll say boneless spare ribs because i used to be a hardcore carnivore and i'll always be one at heart even though i am limiting my meat intake these days. It's either that or Indian food.
9) How do you eat in public, spoon, knife, fork or hands, loud, quiet, slow, fast etc?
I eat with the appropriate tools for the meal. If it's something i need to eat with my hands, i eat with my hands. If it's something i need a fork and knife, then fork and knife it is. I chew with my mouth closed and eat like someone with home training (not that i think about it or anything. I just eat)
10)Do you polish your shoes?
I don't own any shoes that i have to polish. I mostly wear converse for classes or flats when we have to deal up.
11)What are your thoughts on after Life?
When we die, we are dead. Dust to dust. Heaven and hell are here on earth and some people can testify to that because they are living it :)

My question for you guys since i'm not tagging anyone, what do you think are the three most important qualities to have in a life partner? Do you have the qualities you are looking for?
Now that i have officially bummed my way through day one of studying, i bid you guys adieu, until whenever the spirit leads me to pop up/pop in again. I shall have my head firmly buried in First Aid with a health daily dose of Uworld for the next 39 days. I need to get serious with my life. The physical exhaustion is not helping matters, but i refuse to carry last. Some of my classmates have been studying hardcore for weeks now, but they are robots or maybe they are on Adderall or something. I no know. I'm just a regular human being.
Oya, make una answer my question o. I don't want to have to flog anyone. BTW, i changed my name back to Madame Sting. I will still change it again to whatever catches my fancy, maybe Auntie Sting next. What can i say, i'm the P.diddy abi na Diddy of Blogsville.
Three things I'd need in a guy:
ReplyDelete1. A deep and abiding love for God because He is a huge part of my life and a part I'd like to share with someone, not a part I'd keep to myself and go it alone.
2. Joy.
3. Kindness.
I'm not looking for a life partner but I would say these are what I looked for:
ReplyDelete- Fear of God
- Respect for others
- Empathy for all
xxxx
This is almost overload, I loved it! I was hoping to draw you out with the tag, glad it worked. But go back to your books o :)
ReplyDeleteThings I looked for
A thinking person
A respectful person
A caring person.
And yeah, I think I'm all three :)
1. Patience & Understanding (They have to go hand in hand. I cannot seperate the two). You really need to be patient with me..like REALLY!!!!
ReplyDelete2. Affection
3. Love for God (with this...every other thing I need in him will follow.
Nice long post...its been a while since i was here, i used to love being tagged...
ReplyDeleteanyway, i wont be answering your question on qualities sought in a partner, i have given up on people, so i stopped having expectations
...moreover, i don't think people should be hinged on each other in the name of marriage
omg i remember reading concubine in lit class, then watching the play. bwahahahahahahaha @ ss3 competitive bitches. i can relate to various ones u mentioned .
ReplyDelete1. Sincere love for God and His word
ReplyDelete2. Smart and witty personality
3 faithful and trusting (I think these two go hand in hand).
