RE-UNION PARTY

I geared up just like every other ex-student of the two great colleges. It was time for the St. Gregory's College & Holy Child College Reunion Party. Venue was King's Plaza, 80 Adeniran Ogunsanya street, Surulere Lagos. Date was 26th of Dec., a Boxing Day to reunite with old friends or foes as the case may be.

The colorful event kicked-off with the green carpet. Photographs and interviews were done on some notable personalities from both schools.

Now, let's fast-forward to the main 'thing', the 'pakurumo' aspect. Lots of booze and chops were available for those that fancy getting tipsy. Ladies and gents really digging it big.

Vector tha Viper showed up being an ex-Gregorian. As expected guys and ladies crowded the simple looking rapper.

The MC pleaded for space to allow the rapper drop some lines. But, the love was just overwhelming.

The DJ had to drop one of the hit singles Vector did with 9ice-Angeli and the mood was instantly changed to dancing mood.

Vector decided to hook up with his old buddy from childhood. Both of them didn't even enjoy much talk before they were mobbed. Some wanting autographs while others just wanted to take shots with the rapper. The love was just amazing.

Vector was just calm and even wanted to pose for some shots with the fans. Some were lucky, others weren't lucky enough.

Then arguments started between a drunk guy and another guy. Bottles were smashed and the rapper was quickly protected as he took his leave.

Ladies and gents, please pay attention to your alcohol limit.


PLANS

Some things are beyond planning.
And life doesn’t always turn out as planned.
You don’t plan for a broken heart.
You don’t plan for an autistic child.
You don’t plan for spinsterhood.
You don’t plan for a lump in your breast.

You plan to be young forever.
You plan to climb the corporate ladder.
You plan to be rich and powerful.
You plan to be acclaimed and successful.
You plan to conquer the universe.
You plan to fall in love - and be loved forever.

You don’t plan to be sad.
You don’t plan to be hurt.
You don’t plan to be broke.
You don’t plan to be betrayed.
You don’t plan to be alone in this world.
You plan to be happy.
You don’t plan to be shattered .

Sometimes if you work hard enough, you can get what you want. But MOST times, what you want and what you get are two different things.

We, mortals, plan. But so does Allah (subhan wa ta'aala) in the heavens. Sometimes, it is difficult to understand Allah’s plans especially when His plans are not in consonance with ours .

Often, when He sends us crisis, we turn to Him in anger. True, we cannot choose what Allah wishes us to carry, but we can carry it with courage knowing that He will never abandon us nor send something we cannot cope with .

Sometimes, Allah breaks our spirit to save our soul.
Sometimes, He breaks our heart to make us whole.
Sometimes, He allows pain so we can be stronger.
Sometimes, Allah sends us failure so we can be humble.
Sometimes, He allows illness so we can take better care of ourselves.
And sometimes, Allah takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything He gave us

Make plans, but understand that we live by Allah’s grace.

Although they plan, Allah also plans. And Allah is the Best of Planners.
[Holy Qur'an 8:30]

BEFORE YOU GET THE NEXT GADGET- important things to note.



I decided to share my views and also to enlighten people. 'The new Blackberry Porsche is set to be sold at a sum equivalent of $2300 or N380,000'. Yadda! Yadda! Yadda! I've seen some couple of BCs flying all around. I decided to share them and then enlighten people on gadgets getting. Here're the messages:

(1). Does it download food?

(2). Does it fly?


(3). Does it transfer you via bluetooth to another country?

(4). Does the Battery get better per use?

(5). Does it come with unlimited BIS?

(6). Does it appreciate in value like gold?

(7). Does it have Obama's pin?

(8). Can it download money?

(9). Can it download Visa to the US?

If it does not perform any of the above functions, please don't kill yourself. Rather get a landed property. Agreed upon.

Before I continue I must make it lucidly clear that I'm not marketing no product for no one.

The problem most people have with gadgets getting is just craze for acquiring expensive gadgets. My take: if you get a gadget simply because its expensive, then you're really short-changing yourself. Simple as it is.

Here are what you'd consider before getting a gadget:

1. Thinking deeply. Do I really need to get this gadget?

2. Will it serve my needs?

3. Does the cost justify its functions?

Professionally speaking, these are what you'd take into consideration:

1. The processor. The CPU is measured is GHz or MGz as the case may be. Its the clock speed. It determines how fast your gadgets functions or process and execute your various commands.

2. The RAM. Random Access Memory. Simply put as the memory or the storage device. This could be aided with external accessory. That is, the smart card.

3. Resolution. The display of images et al matters. Especially for those with bad sight. You might wanna take cognizance of this feature.

4. Camera. The higher the mega-pixel doesn't necessarily determines the display quality. Even the photographers would agree with me on this. But, an higher mega-pixel is preferred. You might say "why is the camera important?". I'd say; ask the Oriental man same question.

5. Ergonomical functionability. This is simply the way it carries out all your functions.

6. Cost. This is also very important. When you get a gadget, a smart gadget I mean, you should be able to use it optimally. An example: if sending text messages, call and receiving are all you do on the gadget. Please stick to gadgets specified for these only.

7. Beauty. Its negligible really. Why get a cute gadget with less functions when you can have a better one that's...not so fine :)

8. Maintenance. Handle your device with care. It saves cost.

There you have them. I hope you'd consider all these before you get the next gadget. Stop the show-off :)
