TEAMWORK

Hey y'all, whats happening? First of all i have to apologise for not writing Last week's blog. I was neck-deep in an assignment and couldn't even think of dropping it. I mean, i couldnt understand the topic i was to write about but as God would have it, i found another topic that was easy to understand and i did the assignment in four days. So what has been happening to you guys? hope you have been having fun and not being as boring as i am. Oh well Thank God.

For the past two weeks, i have been very depressed (YES I DO GET DEPRESSED NOW AND THEN), a lot has been happening in my life and i cant understand why they are happening. I mean so many expectations, dreams, wishes etc. that have not materialised and it makes me want to quit (you know, why try at all). However, i have been speaking to my Father about it and He has asked me to cast everything on Him. So my prayer is that he will turn things around real soon.

So i got my first report and it was not good. It was a group work and we had to do a presentation. I did input some ideas but had to back off when all my suggestions were hitting brick walls. Eventually we settled on doing something (i tried to make my part very interesting and catchy) which i thought was not exploring our full potential. Needless to say, the results are out and my group scored a 58%. What am i supposed to do with a 58%? This means i will have to work extra hard to get a very good grade in the exam to make up for this crappy mark. To make matters worse, other groups had 75%, 65% etc. I know what i want out of this and crappy marks like this just creeps me out. Anyway, i was kind of happy when i discovered that some people had 55%, 45% etc but still, i wanted at least a 70%...Oh well. I still maintain "I HATE TEAMWORK,GROUPWORK WHATEVER"!

I went for an eye test (i have an excellent vision by the way) and contacts fitting. It went on for hours and i was beginning to think i should have brought my bed and food so i could camp there. In the end, i got to try the different colours but it was so difficult getting the contacts in that i had to limit myself to trying the hazel and honey colours. I eventually picked the honey colour and went through another bout of putting them in and taking them out (they said i had to learn before they gave them to me). When i eventually had them in a second time, i refused to take them out till i was time for bed. These all happened on friday and i havent worn the contacts since then until today ( took ten mins to put them in). After putting them in, my left eye felt foggy (i think i had it in the wrong side up) but i couldnt be bothered to take them out and try again (who get that kind time). However, i look really good (have taken pics and will send soon) and y'all will be impressed (Olumide, i can see you smilling). The contacts lasts for only a month and i know that i wont be getting a replacement (too much hard work involved).

Despite my depression, this weekend was great. We had evangelism where we went visiting church members and on sunday (which was thanksgiving) we had a blast. I was leading praise and there was a lot of off key singing because there was little communication between me and the keyboardist but it was fun though and i thank God that so many people were blessed immeasurably.

After much deliberation between my chubby and skinny self, we have decided that we want to be slim and keep it that way for a long time (at least after having children). I got myself some sport outfits, will be getting a scale soon and i should start sfter i give in my assignment this Friday. I will keep you guys up to date with my progress (bad or good) and hopefully we shd be successful in the end (wish me luck).

Ok, i gotta go. I have an assignment that is due this friday and i havent started yet. I'm not panicking because i think i know what to do (i think?). Oh well, it will be well. Take care of yourself and always endeavour to keep in touch as you might just save me from committing suicide (just kidding!) but try to send me a one liner once in a while (Ify, Awele, Tonye, Chike, Temmy, Tessy, Sunday and Olumide thank you for all your emails, i really appreciate).

I love you all.

Ciao!
