*Rushes in.. looks around...all I see is straight faces... I know I have to do this...Goes down on both knees* AYAM SORRY. It wasn't my fault. Everything was just against me... even my internet service provider too had evil plans for me. I'm so sorry. This post is long overdue so I will just sharpaly download the gist *bats lashes like my good padi Amaka*
First I want to say thank you to everyone. For the emails, text message, calls, comments, prayers.... y'all are the bomb..(#noboko o).... Thank you soooo much. So I was thinking if it was a good idea mentioning people’s names and thanking them one by one... People that know me well know I'm a forgetfulmarafucka person.. The way I forget things amazes me... so I spoke to a blogger friend of mine and she
said it was better that way so here it is... Please if I forget to put your
name, it wasn’t intentional. Put the blame on my brain... My butt hurts right now and my eyes are shutting... Boo usually proof reads my work before I post but the poor boy has
slept... so please forgive me.
Here we go...*folds the arm of my shirt*

And the biggest of all birthday
gift was Aby's blog post. I almost
cried o.. chaiii... see love from a stranger. I am going to copy and paste it
here... Here it goes.
Dear Moby,
Birthdays are celebrated once
a year, but I believe people deserve to be celebrated everyday of the year,
especially people like you. I haven't met you, but I've seen how amazing a
person you are, you are a woman of strength, great talents and ambition and I
am grateful for ever knowing you. So full of life and passion you are and a great
spirit you have, there is always a smile on my face and laughter on my lips
anytime our phone conversations end.
You are a shining light to
the world, you are an inspiration to your generation, you are an inspiration to
me!
I pray that you may continue
to grow in wisdom and strength, that God may widen your coasts, I pray that God
will totally overwhelm you with abundance of His blessings, grace and
favour, so abundant that it will overflow (picture a water fall). I pray that
God will bless you to the point of tears...joyous tears! I pray that you will
live to see your great grandchildren, and still be strong and over dramatic
enough to dance sekem/shoki (and whatever naija dance is reigning at the time)
with them.
You are on your way to
becoming a great woman Moby! Today, I am proud and happy to be celebrating you,
a great woman, Mobolaji O. Amusu. Keep soaring and shining!
With Love,
Aby Purpleheart.
Yes I almost cried reading
this... I mean who wouldn't. Thank you Aby for this. God bless you.
So the main gist shey?
Okay.... What did I do on Wednesday? I went to work feeling like it was just another
day of the week.
My mum wanted the day to feel special so she followed me to the car to take pictures. That woman bought one mallam radio that uses battery *people that grew up not having light and generator would definitely know this radio* so that we would have a mini party in the morning before I leave for work. I just love me some Iya Dayo I swear.
Iya Dayo and Moby...mehn I don dey fat o *covers face* |
I just had to join this picture. I was looking very fine that's why. |
My friend Sunbo came over to chill with me (at work *smiles*)
so that the day doesn't feel so ordinary. Then a cake came in for me...from
Boo... I wanted to cry. It was so cute. Thanks Leboo baby..(according to Bukky
LOL). I'm actually watching my weight so I could not eat so much *serious yinmu o*... Thanks
huni.
So from work, I decided to
spoil myself a little and I bought plenty oranges and took most of it sha *please don't abuse me o*.
That's a good way to spoil myself na..(I repeat ayam watching my weight). On getting
home, I saw another cake. My friend, Chika, who is a baker / chef, made me one
beautiful, marvellous cake. She came in from Dubai for my birthday...or so I
think. She's such a cutie *goes to my rooftop to say this* I LOVE YOU CHIKA.
She is good mehn and she makes good cakes. You can also make your orders. Here's her email address Adlnck@yahoo.co.uk... Follow
her on Instagram @chef_chika. Here's a picture of my
cake.
Yes it is as sweet as it looks |
Then I got the book 'Half of
a Yellow sun' as a gift from Boo...signed by Boo, my sister and her Boo... It
was so cool. Thank you so much guys... I've always wanted to get that book.
Thank you *chop kiss abeg*.
After the movie, we went to
Koko lounge (I think it’s called something else now) for their Comedy open mic
night. We were invited by the same couple and I was feeling like a celebrity...SMH for me...
Anyways, that's what happened
on Wednesday o. Thursday came and I went to Ikeja city mall to see the movie ‘Hercules’
with my friends, Chika (the chef) and Seyi (my natural hair friend) and I had
an amazing time.. If you've not seen this movie, please go and watch it now or else *Tibssss where is that my bazooka o?*..I will shoot you..Thanks guys for hanging out with me *chop kiss*. After they left, Boo and
I chilled at Melting moments... Its an ice cream factory close to the theater and it is opposite Bruno's place.... To all the single girls in the house looking for a partner, there is one fine boy that attends to customers.. He has got the cutest smile ever... Couldn't take his picture cos Boo was already giving me the side eye...but he looks available sha.. NOTE:
I’m still watching my weight ....ish...LOL....This was what I looked like
I had to show off the back na *covers face* |
Please don't tell Gbemi I cheated on our weight loss programme *sad face* |
Duru come and take o.... |
This has to be the bestest
birthday evurrrrr... The phone calls... Peeps were calling till 11 pm. I was
feeling like Goodluck Jonathan at some point.... Thanks everyone... That's all
I can say. Thank you so much. God bless you all.
What next? Ama sleep now till 7am
and then get up, dress up and turn up....for work. Shuooo... see rhyme o... I should be a rapper mehn...
I’m a natural. Who wants to have a rap battle? I’m ready when you’re ready. Hehehehe.
Thanks once again guys. Y'all are the best. Have a lovely blessed week ahead.
Cheers.....
