HeggZited Mush!

For those who are too polished to know what that means, here you go;
'Excited Much!'

Now that's out of the way...Whoopdidooo! Haven't been this enthusiastic in say...about over a year?
Yep. Affirmative (that seems to be my new favorite word)

Reason being because the final wait is over! And right on time!!

Got my passport back yesterday with my UK visa approved so I am pretty much all pumped up for my vacation. So much so that I have literally packed my luggage *covers face*

And to add to my 'heggzitement', a friend of mine from back in 'Uni' resides in London and has already planned my first night out.  

 

Guess I just might stumble into my birthday a liiiittle tipsy (which is on the 4th of August btw *grin*)

And the menu looks divine...

Lol. I haven't even boarded yet and the fun is already rolling in! Just the kind of hype I need right now.

Seems like I am steady striking out each plan on my 2017 Bucket List.
Hehe *rubs palms together*

A Life Worth Celebrating

My reminder popped up on my phone on 07:07:2017.
It was Bernard Makinwa's birthday...or at least it would have been.

Of course, I threw him lots of  birthday bants on social media (Instagram to be precise. Used to be Facebook once upon a time) as has been my usual 'ritual' since he passed.

And I'm pretty sure he kept looking down on me, laughing and shaking his head like, 'Since when did she get so energetic?'
Lol. Yep. A lot has changed since 2009 mate. Life is too short, isn't it? You sorta kinda taught me that. Sadly in a way I would never have hoped for...

I tried my best to suppress my emotions that day and I did quite well. Here I was thinking I had jumped that hurdle, then his little brother, Thomas (who happened to be my sweet little school son back in secondary school) sends me this last night;

...then the tears started flowing. Ugh.

And he goes on to post this- 

                         

The caption easily took me down memory lane of who Bernard was in a nutshell. 

So gentle but so full of life. Every SINGLE time I remember Papoose, Benny comes to mind. Lol

Saw this in the office this morning. Had to sneak into the ladies' room and wipe away the tears that were already building up. I am such a cry baby *smh*

Life happens...0.0000001 milliseconds of the time. 

You, my friend had a life worth celebrating; 27 years ago and centuries more to come...

On a much lighter note:

The wait is partially over!!!

Whoop Whoop!!

As regards my middle name, don't ask...

Pet Peeve

There is nothing I dread more than waiting.

Waiting for someone to get ready so I can meet up for an appointment or event (the worst is when we are running late already)

Waiting for feedback (another worst case is if it's urgent information)

Waiting for my order to be delivered (and yet again, the worst case scenario being when it's a food order...and I am so darn hungry. A hungry female is an angry female.)

True story...

Urgh.
This is pretty much my situation right now.

After writing my Management Professional Exams in May, it feels like it's taking forever for the results to be uploaded on their website.

Like;

When people?? When??? *rolls eyes*

And then I applied for my UK visa last week Friday. Now anytime I see this email address pop up in my notification, I kinda sorta cringe a little bit;

And to think I have to wait three weeks for this...

So frustrating.

Honestly. I can't take this torture anymore...

But then, I have no choose. :(

Say a prayer for me, will ya?
