LollyciousTalks

It's 16weeks after my final exams already and like my colleagues, we haven't seen our final results not to talk of clearance or NYSC. Hmmmmm Don't know what this is but all I can say is it's really annoying. If I'm not mistaken I could remember how my immediate elder sister finished her final exam sometimes around September ending or October at the University of Ilorin and they were mobilized for NYSC in November of the same year. I actually wanted to rant about this delay and just everything cos what? I'm just fed up but I know that alot of things are faulty in my alma mater and let me say in the education system in Nigeria as a whole. I have a friend who has finished from Benue State University since last October and hasn't seen her final results due to ASUU strike. Should I say I hate the fact that most things in Nigeria never even go as planned. Imagine, how we were assured before leaving school that by June, we would go for the mandatory NYSC and this i

It's been some few weeks that I dropped by and alot has happened outside here. From abusive marriage to Chrisland girl trend and now bestiality (blog for another day) The latter seems to be the most disheartening of all the stories. Like WTF! Maybe we would just have to pick one after the other but lemme first ask how do you do? And yeah, April is almost gone too in 2022, how have you been holding up ? especially if you're reading this from Nigeria (Top to botum) Lol  Nawa o! So many things have spoilt in this generation already and we don't even know how perverse the generation coming after this would look like. Parenting seems to beh the cheapest business to run now as there's little to no supervision required. I think I updated on my WhatsApp status sometimes ago how a mother approached me that her daughter got 126 in UTME and she would like me to use everything in my capacity to see that she's admitted into my school even after telling her the cut-off is 150. I

I have seen But could be in trouble if I say I have seen a wife lied to her husband that she's away to see her mum when in actuality promiscuity took her from Ibadan to Lagos I have seen a husband pretending before the wife to be broke but giving luxury to Bola the side chick getting home late with excuse on traffic raining curses on his innocent boss I have seen some children multiplying tuition fee by four for flex and designer tops prodigious living on parent's loan I have seen But could be in trouble if I say I have seen pickpockets at bus stops during rush hour unleashing their terror  but "fem" my mouth is shut I have seen MDs who pretend to be kind desperate to taste honey in jar before giving out the job "use what you have to get what you want" Congratulations, resume on Monday I have seen business owners selling their products and services with exaggerated qualities Mere falsity for pecuniary gains I have seen But could be in trouble if I say I have

 I don't know if it's me that I'm not serious with my life or the world is just turning upside down.  I could vividly remember how secondary school child's play/ love life looked like, it was a low-key something and even if you're a free person with your parents, it still had limitations of what they could know about your so-called love/lust life. All we see nowadays is just love in tokyo of these teenagers, proposals, matching outfits and all sort of public display of affection. Issokae.   I went out today in a public transport and a girl was sitting next to me, she was on uniform so it's obvious she's a secondary school student. I described her as a girl not just because of her looks but other things kinda showed she may be between 14-17 years at most. Then her phone rang and I saw "Ife Ayemi" with  several love emojis.   I sha cannot block my ears, all the conversation was entering my ears not that I was eavesdropping o. From what I heard the gu

Yaaaaaaay, it's my first blogversary and although I should be excited, I'm having a mixed feeling. Well, I guess you all have been fine? I am though but really busy with preparations of some kind which I would gist you about later😜 Hmmmm, this whole year hasn't really been smooth if you'll likely agree. Down the memory lane, LollyciousTalks started as a practical of one of our virtual ICT classes during the pandemic. The lecturer had created a WhatsApp group and had told us previously in class before the break that we would be creating a blog. When it was time, the instructor (whom was a Computer Science student in my school and we became friends afterwards) taught us the steps and asked us to go ahead and do ours. Firstly, I was reluctant because I was not active when the class was going on which made me just mark notifications from the group chat read. I could remember a few of my friends had called that they didn't understand the process too (since it was indivi

 It's close to 45days of being at home and we have not resumed yet o. I just said I should inform you all sha so you'll feel my pain and help ring the bell to these people's ears. I've been helping my sister sew some fabrics but I'm having backache and I've decided to rest my back for a while.  One thing that keeps coming to my mind is a post I had seen on social media where a lady I had presumed to be a devout sister was saying she can't date a cleric. Well, I won't want to sound prejudiced cos of course I'm not but I'm sure some of us would have seen related posts or even said it ourselves. This lady in question is used to updating religious posts, reminding people of the time to pray and regularly quoting passages of the holy book. All these I think gave the impression that she would make a religious wife fit for a cleric which made a quite number of them approached her. Now, she said openly that she can't be in a relationship with any not

Good memories  How precious they are! The not so good memories, how we hate to remember them.  In the world, there are tensions here and there. Hard pressure from the family, finance, peers, economy and many other ones. But when a particular person helps keep your head up in the midst of all these, you wouldn't want to trade the moments for anything. The smiles, laughter, chitchats, hangouts, adventures, snaps, thriller videos and every other beautiful acts are forever cherished. Looking back at events like that gives joy to the soul.  With each person that crosses your path, there are things you can definitely attribute their coming to. Some people are lively and highly spirited, they motivate you to reaching your dreams, they are at your beck and call while some outtalk you of every great dreams, they just exist in your life to inflict pain and sadness. Even after deleting their pictures on our phones and breaking ties, we still can't forget their bad deeds. Whatever thing pe

No doubt I was going to blog about Valentine's day, I knew you must have been expecting it. ''Love is sweet o, when money enter love it's sweeter...'' Davido sang. Another year gone again and I've not had the kind of Valentine's day I've been hoping for. I wanted the one of a celebrity where gifts would be sent from my lover, fans and secret admirers. I wanted that day where I'll keep on unpacking boxes till midnight and making snaps of how lovely it's been. I wanted to be really spoilt with credit alerts. I wanted the day to be so rosy and beautiful. I wanted a kind of beautiful experience that would take certain number of pages when I eventually write a book. I wanted to oppress back to back on social media on what I was gifted. I wanted to wake up the following day and start calling people to appreciate what they have sent me. I sense the period it's drawing near. Should I tell you what I want specifically? Of course I will. Who knows

  Just as a singer sang ''if you know wetin I know, you for no reason me...'' Most times, people do not learn to empathize which makes them easy to judge you. They are always ready to pounce on you when you're found guilty of a wrongdoing. Empathy means to identify with or understanding of the thoughts, feelings, or emotional state of another person. It is the capacity to understand another person's point of view. It's fine to be so positively minded about our expectations but this could blind us to believing the table turns. Note: this 'table turning' of a thing doesn't necessarily means for bad, No No. Lack of empathy causes us to judge other people inappropriately. We are too quick to say 'God catch him' even when we don't understand what has led to that. Until we change our paradigm or the view in which we use to see others, we would continue to hurt others by our excess subjective comments. Right now, your paradigm of anyone that

The first time I came across the word ''sapiosexual'' was when I was reading a book about two years ago. You know what it means right? Sapiosexual means to be sexually attracted to intellectual or mental qualities, rather than to the physical body. Most times, we all crosscheck physical attributes before we consider someone's proposal.  We set qualifications within our hearts, most ladies say ''I want a tall handsome man with beards, six packs, dark or chocolate skin'' Some men say '' I want a lady with a  hourglass shape, beautiful, fair skin complexion, nice dentition and a moderate height.'' It's all good. But what happens when you meet someone with the aforementioned attributes, you ignited a conversation and you started hearing ''My names is Cynthia, they calling me CT babies, I enjoying eating spagerri and shicken'' Oh mine!😲 Did you hear that? Well, nobody would love to date a monkey. No matter how little,

Hiyaaa Happy new week. Guess you're fine right?? If not, I bet you can always talk to me and I'll be sure to give my rapt attention. And yea, where are the icons o? it's still BBN lockdown celebration mode and I'm congratulating Laycon. If only we can share the money together or I should goan do a video claiming I'm pregnant for him nih🤔 since everyone is clinching with him already. Lol. Don't mind me o You will permit me to type this as the spirit leads tonight because I'm stressed already. You know that moment that you're anxiously waiting for school resumption  then school resumes and you become quite reluctant to travel immediately.  So there's this stuff I would like to share with you. Wait o, lemme drink water😂 Just calm down ehn It's not that serious. You know I told you I want us to get personal? I would just like to know what you would have done if you were in my shoes o. As you know, I'm a radio baby. I love doing the talking, whe

I've got the urge to write some kind of stuff so personal 😋. Yes, I'm not prying into your affairs buh I feel we should have a heart-to-heart talk😉. Relationships and red signals! If you really have my kind of best friend, you are lucky I must say. We talk basically about all facets of our lives, criticizing the wrong steps one of us might have taken and critically defining ways to get better. Well, that was just to tell you that relationship talks are part of our conversation and it gets so exciting when it comes to that. So, she was at my place and we got talking as usual. Fortunately, your people supplied power sha, we decided to watch one Yoruba movie that was showing. The first thing that didn't even make me concentrate was the contrast and the makeups on the ladies that gave me the impression the film must have been shot about 4 to 5years ago. Oh! I didn't tell you, there's something in me that doesn't go well with old movies, if it's not as recent a

Hello fam ❤, I've missed you. I'm  sorry I've not been able to post anything this past week, I've been so engaged with some few things and I'm sure you would want me to share with you too.  Can you spot my Ankara design face mask? It's a three layer face mask with filter, that makes it different from the regular one layer satin masks.💃 Before I even proceed, how's the easing of the Lockdown in your side? The trending hashtag today is #Maythe4thbewithyou, smiles.... You saw that too?  The Lockdown hasn't been lifted, it was just eased, know the difference please🙏 if you really do not have anything to do out there, kindly stay at home because it's the most guaranteed way to live at this time. If at all, you have to be out, maintain social distance, wear face mask and sanitize.  Back to what I intended to share with you,  I'm really not going to make it lengthy so we both can enjoy the flow at this time.  I read a bo
