Humor is a very universal language, which is why I try to incorporate it in everything I write and do. Humor is my language of communication, my defense mechanism, and my coping strategy. I even laugh when I’m praying, and I think God laughs with me too…He too has a sense of humor; why else will He plan a judgment day and not tell anyone the date? He wants to laugh when He sees us running with the soles of our feet hitting the backs of our heads and begging for mercy; that’s funny, even to me who is at risk by being human. I was born in Leningrad, Russia on the 14th of January at some point in time. I am from Anambra, but currently reside in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. FYI: I love blue roses!

He looks like an average Joe, nothing special. But the moment he opens his mouth, you need not wonder just how high his IQ is. He speaks English like he invented the language. Who knew that English could make you feel all girly inside?

Why do Nigerian women think they look good with bright blonde wigs and weaves? A light skinned woman hardly looks good with a blonde weave, but a dark skinned woman looks worse...

Men are like cars. Some days you wake up, enter your car and just drive off. On other days, you cannot help but wonder the point of having a car…

If at the end of this piece you conclude that this is a love story, I will not mind at all. But I did not set out to make it such. I just figured I owed it to this special someone to say a few things...
