*Yawns*
How hard is it to wake up at 5.30 am?? *yawns again*. Each time I hear my alarm
go off in the mornings I fantasise for 5 minutes about winning the lottery and
what I will do with the money, I spend the money sharply in my head. Dear God,
all I ask for is 1million pounds (I am not too greedy abi..hahaha). The koko of
my intro is that getting up this morning was so hard for me and it’s only
Tuesday…God help lazy me.
Today I am seriously venting about the issue of kids in this county. At what point did someone come up with the ridiculous idea that it is wrong to spank kids?. OMG, what my eyes have seen since I have moved here has made me reach a conclusion that these people are crazy. Do you know how many times I have refrained myself from spanking someone’s naughty child in a supermarket, bus or train? I completely forget am in the UK and raise my hand before something tells me do you know where you are? Is he/she your child…lol
These kids are extremely naughty, the kinds of tantrums they throw is unbelievable and the parents stand there talking to them. Why waste your time giving a speech when an ordinary spank in the bum can solve the problem. Kai! I remember Naija growing up days, mama Tosin didn't have time, when she gives you one of her signature looks and you ignore her ehnn, the slap or smack that will follow, you will see stars and automatically behave yourself ni. We were programmed to behave ourselves everywhere and every time she was around. Here I have seen toddlers cursing their mothers, spitting on them and dragging their clothes in public and what do the mothers or fathers do? shout STOP it with one annoying thin voice, I just look at them SMH and move on, you are not ready. The sad part for me is Nigerians here have had to succumb to the law because of fear of social service taking your child away, I know of two couples that have had their kids seized because neighbours reported them that they spank their kids. I also went to a Nigerian kids party (turned owanbe) recently and most of the kids were so badly behaved that I was wondering, are these kids being raised by Nigerians?
Is this where you want me to raise my beloved kids in the future and watch them grow up in this scary UK environment? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t support child abuse, but kids have to be reminded once in a while who the boss is. Nigeria is the place o, if you don’t spank your kids sef, there are more than enough people to help you out, except ofcouse the yuppy mummies in Lekki have followed the UK trend o, if that is the case, they are on their own.
Speaking of UK owanbes, I hardly ever get invites so when I got a couple over the Easter weekend, I grabbed them with open hands and attended all. Infact, I waited till they started packing the chairs before I got up to leave each one..Hahahaha (that’s what boredom can do to you).
In 2012, I think I attended just two living room parties which are always horrible. The flats/apartments are always so tiny that guests are practically squeezed together like sardines. At the end of the day when you manage to get food to eat; you have to stand to eat it. What’s the point? So I don’t accept invites to flat parties *straight face*, I only accept invites to parties in houses (with gardens – summer only) and halls *fans self*.
Back to Easter weekend, I got invites to three posh parties and what didn't my eyes see. People have money to spend in this UK o, when poor Oluwatosin is gathering her little pennies and saving all to facilitate her return to Naija, some Nigerians are wasting it. Are you sure all these people wake up at 5.30am to go to a job like I do? If they do, how can they spend all on parties.
Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed myself at the parties but what struck me the most is the rate at which Naija women in London are bleaching and the kind of masquerade-like make up they apply. Jeez! How can you be bleaching your skin in UK? Don’t you know it makes cold penetrate you faster? I was surprised o.
On top of the heavy bleaching, I have never seen such heavy make up in my life especially the very thick black eyebrows….. my God, if you are reading this please stop and tell your friends, ya’ll look like masquerades. Please also refrain from wearing inappropriate clothing because of the amount of excess fat you carry, I don’t mean to be rude but we are sisters and we should be able to advise one another. Those guys you are trying to impress do not like women that look like masquerades…end of story. If you doubt my claims, please check Temidayo Photography on facebook, he is the most popular photographer in UK and captures most of these events, girls in Nigeria have carried last when it comes to bleaching and masquerade make up ooooooo, London girls are winning.
Hey guys please leave comments and let me know how I am doing, don’t want to mess myself o..lol. You can also follow me on twitter @tosinswagger and I’ll follow back.
Catch ya tomorrow
