2012 and then he'll be four

hmmm...

13 days till the end of 2009 and i'm already thinking of 2012.you can't blame me really, i just
saw the movie 2012. I figure i need atleast a billion euros to ensure the existence of my surname... the ticket's for my mrs by the way...lol
(Now you've got to see the movie to "get" me)

Among other thing's i've started making plans for the coming years...think the japanese...who have 100 year goals..lol.i limited mine to 3 years...till 2012.

In the past few days i've read so many books,
Anthony Robbins - Awaken the Giant Within
Rhonda Byrne - The Secret
Seth Godin - 99 Cows
Gary Vaynerchuk - Crush It!
Ben Casnocha - My Start-Up Life

Really Outstanding books, that i would recommend for anyone in a rut.

I get into that mode almost every december... That's when you're suppossed to take stock shey... its usually like i haven't just done enough. So my quest for ideas begin, hence i soak in information from all media, then i distill it, then i drink it up, i get "high" and finally i start again.

Yes, i got the mobile dating service going again...it's starting off slowly,like a text or 2 a day, unlike at inception in 2007 when i got 20 to 30 texts per day.come on people.
That's the thing. when you start, be ready to go all the way, because a lull/pause in activity allows people to tune off and focus on the next best thing.

how many of you folks agree that when a man loves a woman there's no extent to which he couldnt go to make her comfortable? Like he could even do money rituals just to keep her.Most of the yoruba movies i watch nowadays seem to have that same theme.At the end of the day,the wife finds out, doesnt consent to it, the guy dies & then the lady continues to spend the money.why not kuku leave the money.

Omo, Ikira to all the mothers out there, una too gbasky... its really hard work taking care of children, especially 6 month olds... whew...yeah i'm on my leave and my sister came to drop her son with me... everything's all rosy till he starts crying...then i just get confused,
if i wasn't strong, i would cry too...lol.you don't just know why he's crying...you try to give him food, doesn't work.then you start patting him,with the hope that he'll sleep, no chance...
you let him cry and pretend he's not there, the neighbours come to check whats wrong
thankfully mumsie's around too...so she handles it.
Hmmm,he's crying again...i'll be back in a bit i hope..."sigh"

Tara's Orekelewa to the Rescue

Monday 778 (Possible)

I sit at the Large Desk, Mum and my twin by myside... my other siblings,my wife and my kids are also at the table... well there's one in the baby walker too..lol
so we're here to discuss my trip to Asia...i'll be spending a total of 2 days per country...
I get up and look in the distance...i can just make out ships at the Lagos Port...which was now one of the busiest in the country... we were having this meeting at the tallest building complex in Nigeria Nicknamed "The Center Of Lagos"...Its a 70 floor masterpiece, which had luxury Apartments, Offices, and i had built it with my apartment at the very top...so i could get to my helipad on a short notice...i waved back at tourists, i had opened a lounge for tourists from allover the world which was fitted with binoculars and u could see landmarks from neighbouring Ogun State too...

This was going to be the Tallest Building in Nigeria for only a few years cause the bruce brothers were also building one that had 75 floors...and i was building one at the Nation's capital that had 100 floors...lol Mum was supervising that, My half brother's bank was funding the project...
I had surrounded myself with the best in business and they were Family...lol

I finally married a babe who was indian,jamaican,ethopian and had Ijebu Blood too...lol
When this building was being built,i watched with trepidation..."how was i going to fill this with people" mum said "build it 1st, people will come"...lol

To believe that i could wakeup in lagos, have lunch in my wife restaurant in newyork, and sleep on my own private island... yeah i bought necker from sir Richard Branson a few years ago...all i have, from a brand started less than 15 years ago...18andabove has now grown from an event management company, to include 3 magazines, a radio station, one tv station...i've gone into real estate, telecoms...

kehinde!!! kehinde!!!, i better get back to the meeting, mum's calling me...

Kehinde!!!! its 736am, you're going to be late again...
Damn,what a dream...i quickly kneel down to claim all i can remember...
God's just reminding me, i've got to work harder...

monday 16-06-08 (finally)

yeah i 've been around...had a lot of things to talk about but was just to lazy to blog...
i still want to continue with this diary though and i'll find time to fill in the days i missed...
i just didnt want to blog,i have a very short attention span and if i've been blogging for this long, i probably will be able to get to the end of the year Insha Allah...yes my attention span is 6 months at the most and if i get past that it'll be 3 years...its helped me in business,relationship and life as a whole...i'm just looking for the next thing...

i've been a couple of delimma's in the last few days...starting from that trip to owu falls,

i didnt know that keeping a daily diary was this difficult at least i tried sha, my paper diaries are just filled with tips, quotes, my jottings from classes and the books i read...yes i dont write stuff in my paper diary...i just use it to keep notes...yeah yeah i'm just rambling abi...i'm letting my thoughts out for the 1st time in a while...

i have role models, mr Richard branson and Mr donald trump, wonderful individuals, successes in business, billionaires and...have divorced atleast once...shey u understand where i'm coming from...anyways i'm like if i wasnt to be like this individuals, does that mean i'm going to marry more than one wife?and if yes,who 1st?

anyways...i get to ilorin and call sexy, i got all the info about owu falls from her...she's so surprised that i'm in ilorin,i'm surprised too...soemthing in me's telling me that i took this trip just because of her and not cause of owu falls...well thats a part of it...i do this kind of crazy things for the women in my life...lol...

and thats the point,i'm i living the life i want or living this life because of the way a woman is dictating it,i'm i basing my decisions based on wanting to be a success in my relationship 1st or a success in life...because ultimately if its about the woman...i'm going to lose...

sha, i finally get to meet sexy, a lot bigger than her picture, and we end up getting close to having sex...i couldnt because i'm thinking, distance is going to be a major factor in this relationship and she isnt what i want,honestly, i too have a list for my ideal woman and 1st and foremost i want a woman that i can share stuff with, then she must also be near...near enough for us to go on a date in an hour...not one that lives 5 or 6 hours away...i also didnt want to take her for granted cause she loved me...she did, and okay she was a virgin...i couldnt bring myself to have sex with her when i knew i wouldnt want to have a relationship with her...and no its not about std's or aids, its just that this stuff that people do lackadisically, i see as a convenant...yeah think me weird but u just dont have sex with any and everyone...period...

anyways, i get back to Lagos,after risking my life on the Ibadan to Ilorin one lane road...and i call her...my dear, we just have to break up...this couldnt possibly work...she sees reasons with me and that was it...she's now in the past although i miss her so much now...miss her big nose,small breasts,musk perfume...most of all i miss her smile and squeaky voice...i also miss her long natural hair...yes o no bi attachement...anyways as i said she's in the past and unlike others i dont make friends withe exes...when its done its done...i'll only hear from u when u call...
dont go out of ur way to call people that'll just endure talking to u and u bring memories...

thats that...i let that out...

thsi got me thinking about the other women in my life...those i could possibly marry...thing is i dont really think this women care about me...well apart from one...lets call her d, shey i told u that my brother's birthday was saturday in ibadan and yes he's having his 5th wedding annervarsary...oppurtunity to see the family again, to here the latest gist and to present D to the family...yes Other memebers have to meet her 1st before my mum...anyways, D shows up late...in a suit for this kind of party?...and i have to practically force her to meet the folks...and the judgement i got wasnt good...in short, i couldnt present her to mum unless, i feel in love with her,she uses jazz on me or , i really damn what they all say...

i ask myself why i'm i doing this to myself,why do i want to go out with someone who i might not marry?...why do i think marriage will solve a major challenge which i have which is practically becoming a success in business...

and dont go saying, shebi u run a mobile dating service, u could get another one.....
know my dear it doesnt work that way...there always has to be a connection...even if i meet 20 babes in a day,i'll only hope and pray she's the right one...

i'm already tired again although i have lots of other stuff to add maybe later...

let me just read this information about getting a visa to the us, i want to go on a short visit to see a friend...

thats another thing i want to reduce, i want to stop this my information overload...i read everything,books,magazines,blogs... listen to different kind of music,jazz,hip hop,soul,i'm really into pasuma now even though my colleagues at the office think i'm too tush to listen to fuji; watch all the programs on tv...aargh...maybe i shd take a break from all this stuff sef i'll just miss watching salvadore in the second chance...the uefa championship matches...hip tv...prime time jamz...well i have to stop one way or the other sha...

shey i've written abou tmy business yet, well okay...i will be removing a few stuff from my blog although earlier in the week i wanted to close it down...hopefully what'll be left will be original content...and i'm procastinating a lot when it comes to my business...i'm always trying to move it to the next level...always...always...well one day with the help and patronage of u guys it'll be possible...

i've been thinking abt all what is happening in my life right now...did i tell u that the event on saturday was at my brother's house...he's almost completed it...and then i learnt that my friend had moved to his own flat and now has a car...i'm happy for them, but the question that came to my mind was Olohun, when will it be my turn?...he answered in various ways before the end of the weekend...he's like Omo mi,In the marathon called life, you're not racing against opponents, you're in this race against yourself...
Later,He's like Patience,Patience...

and finally he's like what do u really want in life...
what steps are u taking to get what you want...
what wld u give up to get what you want...
thats the koko o...

i know what i wld give up sha,that thing that we guys usually do to or without ourselves when we are aroused...its a bad thing, often develops into a habit and ruins stuff...i didnt use any word o...
i wld also be willing to give up having sex till a later date...
i wld give up taking in all this information...
i wld be willing to give up chocolate..."sob"
i'd even be willing to give up asking the ladies (i probably wouldnt marry) on a date...

why is it that we often plan a lot when we dont have money,,,,then when the money comes we just discard them and go do wat we like with the money...i bet it takes self discipline abi,well i have to take time out to really develop that...

yeah, i havent updated the singles corner for a while and i will be for the end of the day...i have lots of exciting people i'd like u guys to meet...and i'll be adding a small questionaire on how to improve on the service on the side of my blog and will also be sending it to your mobile numbers...your answers and observations will be appreciated...i'm also working on a 18andabove t-shirt, working on other trips to tourist attractions...also putting in place a system by which you could advertise your products or services on 18andabove and its affiliates...

didnt know it costs this much to want to go to the us o...

work sef hasnt been really lively for me...i'm tired of still working here...its 3 years already and u wldnt beleive that i said i wasnt going to use more than months...the whole work i do at work isnt up to 3 hours out of 8 and i spend the rest of the day chatting with pple i'm not feeling at all or browsing stuff that i wouldnt probably remember tomorrow...damn

wednesday march 26 2008 (silence)

at work yesterday,mistaken walked in on a colleague
watching porn...yes...lol...and this was the second
colleague within like 2 months...i thought i was the
only one that was guilty...to think that this were
people i respected alot...i hope it was just curiosity
and not an addiction starting for them...me have
stopped sha except for those once in a while peep...lol
come to think of it,should i tell them to delete it from
their history folder against all those audits? abi i
should help them do it because this guys are not
really computer savvy...do girls watch porn at the office too?

talking of girls,is it that chilvary is dead or that the
hustle and bustle of Lagos doesnt allow us to indulge in it?
well i took the brt bus yesterday...after i shut down our servers
without really checking if everyone had logged out,took a tongue
lashing from a superior...lol...sha where was i?, okay we were
all standing almost jampacked almost like sardine,reminisent of
the infamous molue,eventually some people alighted and i got a seat
i was trying to compose posts for my blog and i could feel stares,
i looked up and there was this chick eyes pleading for me to be a man
and offer her my seat...should i? shouldnt i?the normal me would have
offered her a seat,me right now wasnt just...so i could only smile...
felt a little bit bad but i still didnt get up...another oppurtunity lost
to make a good impression...

got home and settled down to watch the apprentice africa to learn a lil
bit more about entrepreneurship in africa...mum has been complaining
about my junior sister not staying at home since morning,her not buying
petrol for the generator (i hope a scarcity hasnt started again cause the
lines at the petrol stations have sure started).eventually she comes to
sit beside me,that usually means there's going to be news for me,it being
good or bad depended on how i took it...well i have a cousin or so,a single
mother,she had been squatting with friends and they were being evicted and...
i interjected..she should go and stay with my mum's elder sister because
i didnt think it was a good idea and dad wouldnt too...she said okay and
that she would inform my cousin...ironically at work, i was talking about
not marrying a single mother well except if she was angelina jolie or ini edo...lol

saw the apprentice africa and unconsciously i felt the ladies,matrix corp, was
going to win this time,which they did...they were told to propose a new mission statement
and a new advert for sahara energy...Mr Shobanjo was thrilling to watch as usual
and i think he got it right by firing the guy...cant remember his name now...
although it was really tight...the lesson i got today was that,make your opinions
and suggestions known while it can make a difference not after...

sha was chatting with richard branson around 12am my time...well i was listening
to an interview i downloaded onto my phone...lol...having a great time when s
called...she was one of them during my nysc in benin and we managed to still stay
in touch till now,before i go on..NEVER EVER START A RELATIONSHIP WITH A CORPER IF
YOU DONT WANT TO BE HEARTBROKEN...okay, so here she is telling me about her latest
escapade with another corper which ended disastrously...yeah the corper eventually
left her for someoneelse both distance wise and relationshipwise...this is her 3rd
corper relationship gone bad...i told it to her straight,just dont...it takes God's grace...
because usually its a year when youths just liberated from slavery (school and parents)
go all around sowing their wild oats...sha i think she got the message...

ALSO NEVER LIE IF YOU WANT A SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP,well my cousin came over the
easter break,he's just a year or two my senior and he already has pressure
to get married,he's mum doesnt approve of a 5 year relationship he has with an
akwa ibom chick,a yoruba chick or nothing,but the problem lies in the fact that
most of the yoruba chicks he has met,he eventually leaves because of the slightest lie,
do you think he's ever going to get married?lol...
maybe it runs in the family because he's elder brother broke a record...em..."the
fastest introduction to family then breakup"thrice in a role..hope he keeps this one...

anyways got to work early today,mum changed her mind over the night the girl's coming
for just a month...i still dont think its good news...maybe because he paid a part of
the rent abi, or because shes my mum and she eventually gets her way like all of us...lol
sha am downloading podcasts now...tired of reading blogs...lol please read my own sha o...
make comments,use the mobile dating service,vote,call me if you want to...
ehn ehn i just heard of the scottish call...a flash means yes while two flashes mean no....
eg am i still single,just flash once...lol

just got back from a meeting with the md...lol...it wasnt funny...
he charged us to do so much in a short time...and if we didnt...i know no o

got to go now

friday 29th 02 2008 (favourite girl)

woke up with a start...mum was calling me...arent u going to work?...mum today's friday...
yeah its friday...the last day of the last week of the 2nd month of 2008.its going to be an unusual day cause its a leap year...and i was still looking for the number of 2 babes which i knew were sure bankers for the weekend...started the search again tough luck...maybe its a sign...
wacthed a yoruba movie-it was about the travails of being in a polygamous home...na so so witchcraft dem dey...it was eyeopening because altough i was from a polygamous home...and was craving to have my own polygamous family...well dependent on if the lucky lady cant get me ten kids....lol...am serious...it really touched a nerve...starting to reconsider my stance...
my sister still hadnt dropped the note...called she was at a bank in the neighbourhood...i went to meet her there...i hadnt taken my bath...just wanted to make that impression...i wanted to be noticed....met s on the way...told him abt the singles idea...he's going to think abt it...we'll tell d too, atleast he's experienced in this sort of thing...
got to computer village, i was armed with the note...the person i was going to collect the laptop from wasnt in...could i wait...i ended up waiting for 2 hours...he'll soon be back...thanks but i cant wait anymore...maybe in the evening...had to get to work...i hadnt told anyone i was going to school...was about leaving the famous computer village when i met an old friend of my half brother...i hadnt seen him for close to 8 years now...
i just met the jumat prayer...the bus i boarded was soo slow that if i had jogged i would have gotten to palmgrove before it...got to the office, everyone's in a solemn mood...my other boss..yeah that one...was leaving today...well tough luck...
me i have to go early today sha o...because of the laptop issue and the babe for the weekend...so i might not stay for the sendforth ceremony.
so as usual...how had i done for this month,thats as regard my top 3 goals...
i didnt pray really well this month,didnt go for any tahajjud and even assalatu...my flimsy excuses are....alhaja called it quits...i was feeling down,busy,didnt know,lackadisical....the real reason...i was lazy...hope to improve
i only went for a lesson out of 8 this month...my twin must not hear o...shes so happy that am finally in niit and studing wat i want to do and am letting her down...well i had no phone,no money...well really...i was lazy again and not really motivated...but i've been teaching myself a lil bit...until my laptop pafuka again...
on nitreme events, in the last couple of days i've gotten ideas about the singles trip arm of the business, but apart from that,nothing, even the software guy has been complaining that am not serious...and its all because of money...no funds then...there's a bit now but no time...
i'll think of something...
hopefully march will be cool and better...

friday 15/02/08

am soo happy cause i just received great news...shey you tose kind of happiness you cant show...
okay let me call it relief...no its not because today is a friday...well thats great, its not because i got a babe for a day since the valentine hypnosis is still on and its not because am not coming to work tomorrow...well its because my boss would not likely leave as soon as i thought anymore...isnt that great?...i hope he wont put me has part of his prayer point...but you know i feel the company needs him more now while its going through this stage...

well how was your val...i spent 6 hours sleeping, 12 hours at work,3 hours watching tv,listening to music and working on my database simultaneously,2 hours in traffic...and the last hour on miscellanous...if u want explanation ask....couldnt just make time for anything....sha i took the long way home...just to pass allen...and from benzs to limos and danfos to okadas, everyone was in the mood...there was so much traffic on the road...i give kudos to the marketers who have hyped this event so much...even the little kids in my house were dressed in shades of red to pink...and yes the customary chocolate ate in my house bought by my mum...the talk gravitated as usual whenever my younger sis is around to my babe....well i wonder who told her about the one in sudan....couldnt just tell them it was over cause mummy didnt believe i would leave all the babes in nigeria to go to sudan...lol

hope u guys like the small match making service...if you're single, just dont pick a no., you could actually drop urs too...we dont want a situation that like 10 girls will be calling a guy or vice versa...lol...also its completely free...lol

anyways u guys have a great weekend....

thursday february 14 2008

so its another valentines day and am single again...so customary for me on this day, i switch off my phone,cant just stand all the acts of love that people exagerate on this day, then i have a lot of toasters and admirers who would want a lil something something for me...and money no dey...so i dont celebrate valentine...rather than spend all that money on one girl, why dont we just go and volunteer ourselves at an orphanage...
by now u also know that i've not started my mobile dating service...i havent been able to have a sitdown with the software guy...also i dont have a lot of cash at the moment...scratch that i dont have cash at the moment...and no phoneso i've been spending the last two days building another database on access,practicing really,and thinking of our i'll incorporate the mobile dating on my blog well until i sort the money issue out...hope blogspot allows it...so stay tuned on this page.
my most memorable valentine was when we had a promo during the early days...i hopw we wld be able to continue it...it was called 14 free dates on feb 14...then we used to charge 4,000 per individual to match them together but from the 7th to the 13th we would throw our phone lines open and matched those who called in free...take them out on dates at restaurants or fastfood joints...it was really stressful but we enjoyed it...well,we did the promo only once like this since then we dont take them out anymore...then if there were some of our clients still single...because its our fault...or theirs...we send roses.chocolate and recharge cards to make up...
so tonight, its going to be me,mum and the tv or my laptop...well am thinking of buying chocolate so i'll val my mum...lol
so no sex tonight...sob..we isnt that what you guys do tonight anyways...are u going to spend all ur money on that babe and u wont get atleast a peek,babe do u think he's getting you drunk so that he can then drive you to your house without doing nothing...well if he does,he's definately gay...lolbut take it easy bo...use your head...and he'll use protection
got to get back to work...
