(Dear lovely Ghanaians, please correct me if I am wrong)

So for years now, I have been professing my love for Ghana. Like seriously, one would actually think I am hooked to a Ghanaian but that is not the case.
Now my obsession with Ghana began about six years or so ago and every time I have put it in my to do or more like to go list, I have always uhmmmmm skipped it for something else. Yes she is a busy lady.
Whenever, I see Ghanaians I always love talking to them and their accent to me is jest off de chain!! (just off the chain).  I am sooooo much in like with their accent because it just makes me smile.
I met a Ghanaian on one of my days out with my friend and we were heading to the train station to catch the train (Missy Tee what else will you go catch at a train station? A private jet? You do not have to explain what you were going to catch they already know. Ahh miss oxbridge).
Anyway, a friend who stays in the city we went to visit (Shef.) was very kind when we met at one of the very wonderful pretty colourful building we visited. We had to do a fun task as a team and this person happened to be on our team #thingsyoudowhenyouareatouristandthepeopleyoumeet. It was snowing cat and dogs so we were offered a ride to the train station as we had no car with us that day. When we got in the car, my fab friend struck a conversation about Ghana and its people. The music playing in the warm car, I was freezing cold in my socks, was Ghanaian music and I was just amazed at how lovely the song was and although I did not understand a word of it, it was just so danceable. So while in the car, my friend was talking about Banku- I believe that's a Ghanaian delicacy and I tried describing it and my dear at some point I just  had to shut up because I just could not describe it right.
So enroute , we had a little tour of S.field.  We saw the S.field foot and all that, the weird looking roads and buses. Twas fun. Anyway, we had a little discussion about Ghanaians being very colourful, funny and united and we had a good laugh in a space of about 15 mins. My friend said she attended a Ghanaian party and it was full of laughter, colour and plenty FOOD!! Well I think Africans are known for that.
When we got to the train station and we said bye to our heaven sent angel (it was snowing heavily so the ride had to be from God ha!) We both said , that was nice and fun.
I kind of wish now that I asked who sang the song playing and had written the track title down. Looking back now I am kind of rolling my eyes at myself.

Sweethearts,

Its been a while since I posted something on here.
Well thanks to everyone who commented on my previous posts. Muchos Gracias!
To the new followers, thank you so much for joining. You guys are fabulous. God bless ya plentayyy!

The weather is gradually changing and its getting colder and colder. No, no snow required please. I have been around doing the norm.
About a couple of weeks ago, after church we went over to a chinese store to get groceries. My shopping companion saw a bag of clean big onions for five bucks. Well, you know Nigerians- we bought the onions and then this particular guy insisted on carrying the big heavy back to the boot of the car for me. I felt he was being nice, he actually works in the chinese store- so I was thankful and led the way. After dropping the heavy bag in the boot, he asked;
Guy- Do you have a boyfriend?  (in the most mumbled german or whatever accent I've ever heard- I wonder how I was able to make out what he said)
Tee- Why do you ask?
Guy- I like you- you know?
Tee- (Bursts out laughing) Oh! Thanks a lot, thanks (walks away)
I couldn't help but laugh. On my way outta the store, he positioned himself in a place where I could see him- however I walk out acting like I didn't even know he was standing there. 'Twas funny.

A while ago too, I had to get the bus so on while getting off the bus- I realised this particular guy seeking my attention; I thought he was lost or something so therefore being a nice missy that I am *wink*, I stopped to hear him and possibly help him out if I could.
The next thing he said was;
Guy- Excuse me, do you leave around this area?
Tee- How may I help?
Guy- I am interested in you, are you interested in me?
Tee- Are you kidding me? I'm sorry I gotta leave. Chao!

So these things still happen in this day and age? You've gats to be kidding me.
Guys are really brave mayne! I bet some other ladies could have provided them with wonderful insults and do they actually think ladies will agree to their on the spot request. I don't even know your name, never seen you face before....... wow. God bless the brothers out there! Amen someborri?!


Christmas is in exactly 21 days and its not even funny- I don't even have a christmas list! I normally am organised when it comes to Christmas but I dunno what happened this time.
I love the Christmas-sy atmosphere, you get and give gifts, its cosy majority of the time and so on.
Oh well darlings, whatever gift you get from me this christmas; even if it isn't as nice- just know that I love ya! (Apology for not planning in advance). LOL!
Gotta hit the stores next weekend.....

In order gist, I'mma be braiding my hair in a few days and I'm pretty hyped about it; I've been announcing that I might braid it over two days because I am not one for sitting in the same chair for HOURS- Uhmmmmm Na! So yea. I'll probably take a picture of it and put it up here.

Till then, I leave you with this song that has been on replay for a while now;
The young man singing at 4.23 is ..........*clears throat*. I looooove his voice.


Have a good Christmas!

Love y'all

Missy Tee signs out for now.........

The Palms Trip/Pizza Ordeal

Normal Pizza Source

What’s popping blog hearts?

If I call this ordeal- it makes it sound like something really horrible which it partly is but there isn’t another word that can fit it so hence the heading.

Ok so my sibling and I decided to go to The Palms in Lagos to have a wander about. We decided on our way there that we were going to get pizza so we could munch on en route to the humble abode (if we got stuck in traffic so we don’t starve). Immediately, my head went to Pizza Hut kind of pizza or Costco pizza which I am absolutely head over heels for. My taste buds were dancing makossa and my stomach was making funny noises thereby prompting me to hurry up in getting the pizza in there.

Anyways, we arrived at The Palms and were walking about and oh yea lemme tell you this; I saw Ify- this girl that did uhmm Big Brother Africa years back? May I mention that her outfit made me sweat on the spot? My darling Ify was wearing high heeled suede ankle boots that looked really warm and nice, skinny jeans and long sleeved turtleneck with sunshades and hair that had bangs and covered her ears. I was over 37^oC in the tank top with a pair of jeans that I had on, I was already melting and could not wait to enter some place that had at least a fan. So I looked at myself thinking “are we in winter and my body is not feeling it or what?”

 When I saw her, I felt the effect of being in those clothes when I wasn’t even in them! Trust me if you had seen her you’d have thought it was winter and considering that the temperature was over 30^oC and rising, you would have been sweating on the spot. As in I was like- Sister, are you not sweating in this winter attire in over 30 degrees? I was dazed. I had to drag the sibling along to avoid a scene as the laughter was about to get really loud...moving on!

So we went around and around. We went into Shoprite I think (that’s the Wal-Mart-like store there right? When I walked in I thought it was Wal-Mart) and I came out with a cheese sandwich (which melted when we got outside) and this long sachet of bubble gum which I was hyped about because I hadn’t seen it in years.

My people hmmm we got to where we were to order the pizza- I don’t want to mention what the place is called because it is someone’s business hmm *lips sealed*. Anyway, this lady walked up to me and said “what would you like to order?” handing me a menu. I looked through the menu and ordered a spicy meat feast pizza- goodnessssssss why did I pick that?

I then dropped 1500 for the pizza which was unbelievable for what was sold but my taste buds and stomach pushed me to drop the money. Sometimes, it’s good to look at what you are buying before dropping money for it. Then the waiting time started, I waited and waited and waited- the sibling was on the phone so I was bored out of my mind waiting for the so-called pizza. When the pizza finally arrived, I did not open it so the next destination was straight out of the mall but along the way I spotted KFC and got Ice cream oh thank God for that Ice cream if not hmmm.

When we stepped out under the frying sun- I was hurrying into the car before the cheese on the pizza overmelts (see me thinking that I was carrying Papa John’s Pizza). So I balanced myself well in the seat and start with something cold- the Ice cream. When I lifted the pizza box - you know when you are overly excited because of pizza and you can’t wait to just tuck in and you feel like you can’t open the box any faster and there is this song playing in your head and its getting louder as you are about to reveal the pizza and all of a sudden you open the box and the song screeches to a halt and you are like WHAT IS THIS? I felt like it was a movie playing and a joke or someone was playing a prank. I was dazed- come and see pizza. It was as flat as the baking pan, behind it was a mixture of flour and burnt bits, the cheese was so thin and the so called meat feast was more like meat fasting, the peppers on it were like minute hair rubber bands. The sibling gave me a “that’s Las-gidi for ya” look. I said to myself “hmm Tee, don’t judge a book by its cover- try it first and don’t let that dushh waste like that”

So I had one slice and was like hmm this is very tasty NOT! and see me that was starving myself for pizza. I had a couple of slices and just went straight to the ice cream. The ice cream made more sense than the fried bread that they called pizza. I was like if pizza doesn’t work, let’s try the cheese sandwich- the cheese sandwich melted already. All I could do was just chuckle and down some water to apologise to my taste buds and stomach- they were real mad at me.

When I arrived home, I travelled straight to the kitchen to get some food that made sense rather than that their stomach upset in a box. Ptschewwwww

Talk soon…

Have a good one loves!

A long whirlwind complicated friendlationship 2

Source

If you haven't read the first bit, you can do here

Everybody was getting ready, girls hesitating; not wanting to be the first to reveal their various looks and the boys obviously wanting to show off, approached the venue first!

Party time arrived, the music came on, and teachers sat about (watching closely for the moderately dressed student and “revealing” students so they could use it as insult during classes).

Miss O and her girls partied the whole afternoon, they ate, danced, talked, and their usual gossip. Spoke about the best dressed boys and girls, the ones they wanted to dance with, the insults and so on.

End of the party, home time but the DJ was still DJ-aying away while the venue was getting empty so for O and her clique the party continued.

The children’s day party finally came to an end when Miss O was to be picked from school along with Miss T, Miss Ti, Miss K. Miss O was the first to be picked from school, it happened to be Miss O’s brother and his friend who turned up. Then came Miss Y (again!) looking for Miss O (thoughts ran through Miss O’s head- is she coming to ask me for jewellery again or she is coming to take the one I’m wearing away?). O put on a brave face and paid little attention to that and hence the conversation;

Summer dress wahala! and Summerfest/Barbecue

Hey Lovelies,

Bank holiday tomorrow- dancing makossa!

Anyways today was good, my church had this summerfest/barbecue thing today and it was real fun(ny). I checked the weather forecast today and it was meant to be a rainy day with max temperature of 14 degrees or 16- cant remember exactly now. So yea I was meant to leave around 10am or so (being a "worker" I had to be there early) but I didn't get there until about12.10pm. It was scheduled to start at 12pm. I felt bad but I just put a brave face on- you know!

A long whirlwind Complicated Friendlationship!

Source- complicated

Hey Lovelies,

This is an event I have decided to gist you guys here on Missy Tee’s corner.....

On Friday May 26^th 200?, the day before the annual Children’s day party in High school everybody was hyped and excited about what was going to get down the next day, the whole school probably did not pay attention to any of the teaching on that Friday before the day after.....girls keeping mute on what they were going to wear, boys making a list of girls that they were going to hang out with the most during the school party, teachers teaching themselves in front of the blackboard (thinking students were paying attention) and so on. The whole school was HYPED about the party-“Children’s day” party! *raised eye brow*

After school hours on that day, when almost everybody had left school leaving the late leavers behind at about 15.00pm (or so) there was a girl, Miss O (as I wish to address her on MTB) who was in SS1 at the time, happened to be chilling/gisting (as usual) with her girlfriends Miss T, Miss K, Miss F, Miss Ti and others, having a laugh and just waiting to get picked from school.

Then came this other girl Miss Y, who was a senior at the time (In SS2 to be precise) and a boarder who was able to sneak and stay out of dorm when every other boarder (not all to be honest) were locked in their dorm; at least they were all excited to be in dorm that evening all because of the party. Back to the story, Miss Y while roaming school ended up sighting Miss O and her friends.

 Miss Y called Miss O and hence the conversation;

Miss Y- Hello. How are you?

Miss O- (Sceptical) Hi I’m fine thanks

Miss Y- Please I just want to ask for a favour

Miss O-  What favour?

Miss Y- You know it is the Children’s day party tomorrow right?

Miss O- Yea? (Reluctantly)

Miss Y- I was just wondering if you could please lend me jewellery to use tomorrow, I’ll return it to you immediately after..

Miss O- (Surprised) Uhmmmm lend you jewellery?

Miss Y- Yes please I will return it I promise

Miss O- I am sorry I can’t because there is no way I can sneak jewellery out (obviously Miss O didn’t want to lend Miss Y jewellery because she was trying to avoid her jewellery being damaged or even stolen)

Miss Y- Is there no way you can just put it in your bag and bring it tomorrow? Pls! I don’t have any jewellery to use tomorrow and they are not coming for me tomorrow

Miss O- Nope- I’m so sorry!

Miss Y- Okay Thank you

End of conversation.....(for now)

Miss O on returning to her friends, then chuckled to herself thinking “If I give it to you and then you start telling tales about the jewellery going missing or it’s been damaged –then drama starts *ptschewwwww*”

Anyway, Y then went ahead to ask the other girls individually.

Then came the D-day *drum roll*- day students arrived school earlier than usual all because of Children’s day parry (on normal school day, they’d arrive super late!) Boarders flung their doors open for day students to use their rooms in changing to their “head turning” party outfits.....

To be continued......
