Don't Take My Nice-ness For Weakness

It's been another busy week as usual, I've been studying my ass off lately learning new technologies and revising old sturves. In the software industry, you almost have to be a swiss army in order to remain competitive and in demand. My goal is to increase my earning potential and be making close to $100k or more by age 30. I got more than enough time to acheive that.

With all these new technologies coming out almost everyday, you can quickly get outdated. This naija boy got his game face on, no slacking for here mehn.

I got a lil aggravated last night. I borrowed a female friend $800, under her promise to repay back by april 1st. Ok so April don come and go, i no hear anything from this kele. So anyways, i decided to text her.

Your Boy: w'sup girl? Abeg how far with the dough?
Kele: I don't have it. I'll get it to you whenever i have it.
Your Boy: ok can you at least specify a date. Next yr? next 100 yrs maybe? next wkend or whatever. just give a ballpark...

Kele: I'll give you whenever i got it. No insults pls...

ooooooooh! dat last line make my head begin dey smoke sha..i'm like daaa hell! how the did i just insult you? I called to clear any misconception, nah so she no gree pick up phone.

Anyways to cut the long story short, i sent her a text requesting her to pick up the phone so we could yarn as adults as per when she thinks she would be able to settle me. I was even gonna cut her a deal to fashee the money and just cook me a pot of jollof rice and soup cos i understand she's still going to school, working part time and all, things can get tight.

99% of people that have dealt with me will likely describe me as cool and easy to get along with. I cant bear to watch people suffer, i'll sometimes go out of my way to help. if i have to completely overdraw my bank accounts to cover your ass, or soak garri temporarily so that you too can have some dough to at least soak garri, trust me i will. I full ground like dat. I don't regret being this way at all. It's good to be good. God rewards me ten fold.

Ok so back to the lil drama, this chic still no gree pick up fone. I must have called like 50 times, my neck and ear even began to strain. Meanwhile we were exchanging text messages in btw her ignoring my calls, so i no understand why she couldnt just spare me 30secs. Mehn! if you saw the way smoke was coming out from my nose and ears, you would quickly know there was fire buring inside me. It was'nt even the money that got me stressing, i can afford to let it go, I Thank God. It was the fact that this kele had the liver to ignore my calls and to show you how lame this chic was, she even sent me a text talking about she heard a lot of sturves about me, blah blah blah...

See me see trouble. Keep in mind this is a chic that is sposed to be my friend o. Secondly, i just moved to Georgia and hardly anyone knows my business like dat. All my padi padis are in NY. Other than me Djing at naija parries, and shining teeth with aquaintancies i meet along the way, Really no one knows me enuff to have access to legit 411 on me. Pata Pata (At most), they may know i'm a software engineer by profession (perhaps via myspace, facebook etc), that i roll in a black coupe, that i moved here from NY, or that my real name is Deji, but still.

I dont have no baby momas, don't do drugs, not a 419'er/yahoo yahoo boy, not a player, neither do i go around toasting every babe at every party. Besides, you prolly won't see me at that naija party if i'm not on the 1s and 2s spinning gbedu (music). I'm just not conspicuous like that. I'm really low key.

As a down to earth naija boy, omo i like to mingle tho, i go out and catch my fun, but still i dont air my bizness like that. so as you can see, if you're not rolling with the CIA, FBI, NSA, or part of my padi padis (inner circle) that i've long known from waaaay back, it can be pretty damn near impossible to get any meaningful scoop on me. Any info about me from sources other than me or those listed above is mere speculation and you ought to ask for a refund for the amount of time and resources you spent while acquiring those false gists.

I told the girl to go back and tell those rumor mongers to go eat a dick with AIDS on the tip. Like denzel washington "King Kong got nothing on me".

That been said, the girl does knows me just a tiny bit. It's a rather interesting story and no! it's probly not what u're thinking..Yeeh suuure...hahaha! Abeg clear your dirty mind jare. you're outta luck guys. maybe i'll write a blog about it sometime, but if i do, i'll be sure to disguise it well well.

I told her she ought to be ashamed of herself cos i thought she had my back like i did hers. Surprisingly i got no response. She likes to have the last word, her mouth is sharp like that. By the way this is not a 23, 24 y/o chic i'm talking about o..this nah really mature woman, but again i'm keeping it anonymous.

Anyways sha despite all the drama, i still handled it in a respectful manner. Why i go dey yab woman over ordinary $800. If it was a dude trying to dribble me like that, omo i woulda been there sharp sharp to obtain my dough one way or the other, maybe even tow ol boy's car or sumtin. I shakara the girl small tho, told her i was coming to tow her car to my garage lol... I'm not a bad person jare, i was just mad at that time but i'm fine now. Notin do me.

So kids, what have you learnt today? Never borrow a friend money that you cannot let go because when it comes time to collect, you risk making an enemy. who needs enemies?

I must get a haircut today today, i look like a caveman with all this bear bear and koko waves. I can't even track down my hairline sef. I already warned my naija barber to get ready for me sha. i'm too fine to be looking this rugged hahaha!.. Celebrity Lomor.

My Personal barber - Correct guy, his name is barile. Original naija boy. Mehn the guy is good at what he does. In fact, i think he's the best amongst all the other akata barbers, judging by his average number of waiting customers on any given day. I don't even go there on fridays no more cos the guy always getting bombarded. The barber shop is always fun. it's a good place to catch up on latest gists on who got locked down for 419, who's baby moma slashed who's tires, parties, the industry, drama and random sturves in general.

I set my house warming parry for May 27. Parry at my house ya'll! lol...

It's the sunday before memorial day wkend so people can come catch some fun at my crib and not worry about work the next day. well at least most people.

I sent out my first mortgage payment today. Mehn! as i was writing the cheque, i was thinking "dayuum! i'm gonna be writing out this amount every month.." I guess it's because i have'nt yet gotten used to paying a bill that large. My mortgage is almost double what i used to pay at my old apartment. I guess i'm grown now, responsibility is a bitch lol..i can now see how much responsibility our parents had back then when we were much younger. They had to pay rent, send us to school, buy us uniforms, put food on the table, etc..God bless them for real. You should give your moma and pop a kiss on the cheek everyday for holding you down for all those yrs your ass depended on them.

No shaking though. I go dey ok. God Dey!. In all, it still feels good though, Owning up to myself and for whomever i'm responsible.

Omo, it's lunch time sha. I don't even feel hungry at all, but i need to put on at least 5 lbs by force this summer. I think i'm gonna grab me some rice and chicken. see you in a bit.
