Jeiel Damina, Lyta, Picazo - What Best Friends Do Lyrics

Jeiel : Ain’t it easy doing life with you Slaying dragons next to you Hop on the plane just to find you ‘Cause that’s what best friends do You got my back any time any day Hold me down if it don’t go my way I wanna know how I hit the jackpot Guess it’s just my luck Chorus : But that’s what best friends do Dem make you mental Dem know say you dey special That’s what best friends do  Never hold you back Ready whenever haters attack But that’s what best friends do That’s what best friends do That’s what best friends do Hashtag blessed to have you Lyta : Closer than a brother, you’re a bright light  You call me in the middle of the night You get on my nerve but that’s alright ‘Cause You know me better than I You got my back any time any day Hold me down if you don’t go my way Really wanna know how I hit the jackpot Can be just my luck Chorus : But that’s what best friends do Dem make you mental Dem know say you d

Jesimiel Damina (Jesi) - Happy lyrics

Verse 1 You give me happy memories Chasing fireflies anchoring trees We'll follow the rainbow till we touch the sky Every moment with you is so alive Verse 2 We're telling funny stories Then we're dancing out in the breeze Oh I'd capture this innocence Only if I could wish we never change  For many many moons Chorus Happy is me Happy is you Happy is us cause our feelings are true Happy is love pure as a dove Happy is times when I'm dreaming with you Oh happy Oh happy Verse 3 Here in the moment life is sweet I'm like the flower and you're like the bee How I wish we were brothers so you'll never leave And I'm missing you long long before you go Chorus Happy is me Happy is you Happy is us cause our feelings are true Happy is love pure as a dove Happy is times when I'm dreaming with you Happy is me Happy is you Happy is us cause our feelings are true Happy is love pure as

From Infatuation To True Friendship

I was strongly attracted to Nnadi from the first day I saw him after Bible study. I didn't know his name. He wasn't working in any department and he wasn't conspicuous. I was just drawn to him somehow. Yea, he was a fine boy. You could say tall, dark and handsome. But it was more than that. His smile radiated peace, joy, love, things so beautiful that I just wanted to be a part of. From that day, I always looked out for him. I was just satisfied to see him.  One day, I visited one of our sisters who had just given birth. As I was going through her wedding photos, I noticed him in a picture. So I pointed at him and asked her for his name. That night, I went to our Whatsapp group to look for him. I saved his number but I didn't call. I knew it was good etiquette to let the man do the chasing. However, one day it was announced on the group that he had lost his car during Bible study. I thought to myself, "Here is my opportunity. Now I have a reason to call an

Nigerian Doctor: Why you might want to practise in the United Kingdom

-
Image
The exodus of Nigerian doctors to the UK and other developed countries has become a matter of international concern. Last year, it was estimated that an average of 12 doctors emigrate from Nigeria to practise in the UK every week. Worse still, according to the General Medical Council, UK, 750 doctors in Nigeria enrolled to take the PLAB 1 exam which held on 14th March 2019. PLAB is the 2-part  entrance exam into UK medical practice for international medical graduates.  Among the many reasons doctors leave for the UK, here are a few statements I've heard from doctors. I needed to feed my family. Who no like better tin? (here for the goodies) I wasn't getting into Residency. Everything is wrong with Nigeria. People have different motivations in life. Some want to be rich. Some want to be influential. Some are driven by passion. Some want to serve. Some pursue happiness. Some are driven by a sense of purpose or calling. Still s

Nigerian Doctor: 8 things you should know before coming to practise inthe UK

-
Image
In my previous  post , we talked about certain benefits a Nigerian Doctor could gain from coming to practise in the UK. As doctors continue to leave Nigeria in droves, it is important they get some information lest while building castles in the air, they're shocked by the reality of life in the UK. Dear Nigerian doctor and any intending migrant, here are some facts you must know before coming to the UK. 1.      The salary advertised, though quite attractive is your gross salary.   Meaning, it includes your portion and the Government's portion. There will be tax, national insurance and pension deductions before you get your net pay. Also, NHS usually advertises a range. You are more likely to be started on the lowest scale except you have proof of extra relevant qualification and/or experience which you must bargain for. 2.     You cannot run away from tax.   The higher you earn, the more income tax you pay.  Apart from tax on your income, you also pay tax

My Comment On Linda Ikeji's Banana Island Mansion

-
Image
Yesterday, Linda Ikeji posted pictures of her new house in Banana Island, Ikoyi, Lagos. She said she bought it for over half a billion Naira. I was among the people that shared the link not necessarily because I was very impressed with the house (and I was pretty much) but because of the inspirational message she added below the pics. I was really inspired and motivated by her message to young girls to believe in God and themselves, not look unto a man to save them from poverty, to be consistent in whatever they are doing. Her statements that struck me most were "you're more powerful than you think" and "when God wants to bless you, he will bless you, even if you're selling toothpick". Now my advice to the millions that saw her post and have since been making calculations, planning on a change of career or have been depressed thinking they are failures because a 35 yr old female could achieve this and they are 40 just managing to pay rent.

International Student: Settling In Nottingham

-
Image
By now, you guys know I'm in the UK for a Masters programme at the University of Nottingham. For my previous post on my journey to UoN click here . Arriving at Nottingham First thing I noticed on arrival at Nottingham was the culture of hospitality. Everyone I asked for direction went out of their way to guide me. One saw me at the top of a staircase oneday and rushed up the stairs to help me carry my small box down the stairs. Another didn't know the way to where I had asked her but instead of dismissing me, she asked for my map and helped me to interpret it. How nice! It's a gross contrariety compared to what I experienced when I arrived Lagos in 2014. Everyone was so impatient. I  wouldn't have finished saying "excuse me" before they walked out on me.  They were all on their guard, reacting as if I were a beggar or a swindler. Lagosians were so hostile especially the bus conductors. In contrast, the customer service here is topnotch.  Next

RadiantKing: Him Not Saying Anything

-
Image
Radiant : Kingston and I had become close friends. He gave me a lift to and fro Sunday service since my house was on his way to church. We had jovial chats and banter and I felt comfortable around him. He was now chief editor of my blog. He gladly did it and that, so excellently. I was in love with him. But I had a problem - he had not mentioned any intention of a relationship.  I was in an awkward situation. I could not tell other interested parties that I was free to mingle, yet it would be costly to assume I was in a relationship with him as he hadn't said anything to me. I could either wait endlessly or broach him with the topic at the risk of sounding desperate. The problem with the first option was that I stood a risk of losing potential promising young men interested in me, for someone I was in love with who probably only saw me as a friend. One day, during one of our chats, I seized an opportunity to ask for clarity on the status of our relationship. He dro

What To Do Before You Walk Up To Her (Chyking 202)

I've always had a theory about relationships. I don't know how it got ingrained in me since I was a teenager. Not that I had any experience but I just had it in me that whoever I'd marry would be from my circle of friends, not necessarily the ones at that moment. I rejected the idea of arranged marriages or recommendations. I just didn't see how true friendship could be birthed when both parties already knew the other's expectation of them. My belief was that I'd be friends with someone I must have met in a forum of common goal, maybe church group, class, workplace, or something, just a gathering close enough for me to have observed his character around people so that when he approaches me, I already know if he is the type I'd even consider. There are people that I know it's a no-no just by interacting with them or watching how they relate with others. Well, I might have modified that theory with experience over the years, but the basic principle
