My Self

My full name abi??
I know say you go wan know.... Anyways I am Temmytayo Abimbola Omo Mr and Mrs A.
I was born 28 years ago( yeah, I know I am ancient:my cousin's way of describing people over 25). I started school early enough to leave at age 9. Entered secondary school at 10 years and of cos using 36' s words i was bloody flat chested. Not that it really mattered then anyways, I didn't even know the shakara I could do with breasts. They decided to come out when I was in SSS 1. Imagine that.

I am quite brilliant, well I need to blow my own trumpet now. I had double promotion in primary School, was the best student in my secondary for 3 years running(until i started to read mills and boon). Was the best french speaker/student in Oyo State in 1997. I cannot say'' sit down'' in french anymore, where all the francais went to, na only God know.

I hate any form of calcualtion. How I ended up with a degree in Economics I am sure you will wonder. Left Economics for Marketing. It is too sure I might end up a maths lecturer in the next 10 years.

Temmy can TALK!
Temmy is a shoe freak.
Not so much a bag person, I can carry 1 bag for a whole year without any stress.

I had my first boyfriend in University, can you imagine, when my some of my friends lost their ''chastity'' at age 15! I guess because chest was flat, the boys were not that attracted, maybe not. It is too late to find out now.

University for me was fun, I was every body's friend. Cute body, a bum to die for, well to sum it up beauty and brains(I hope Delilah 3 will not get to read this, she thinks she is the one with both qualities).

Oh, I met my Ex at uni, we all know the story.

During my NYSC, I had a huge crush on Akinwale the man with the cat eyes.

I grew up to love cars...
Right now I can trade Mr O for the latest RANGE ROVER!
I have never been a food fan, maybe that is why I still remain a size 6.
I am a hopeless romantic, that accounts for why I have watched ''There's something about Mary like a thousand times''. As for Maid in Manhattan, I can repeat the lines after J.Lo.

I used to think that I like music until Omotola and Genevieve released or rather ''waxed'' their own albums o. If we all call that music then...... (No beef intended o)

My Family:

What can I say: Ma famille est fantastique!

4 gals and a boy. The funniest family you can ever think of, we make a joke out of everything under the sun. My sisters are best described as chaotic 3.
We call my father CHAIRMAN.
Yeepa, my mama ! She is called chair girl or call her by her first name: flaky baby.

I remember those days when she used to punish us, corporal punishment. My mum can throw anything at you when she is angry. She once beat me with hot orogun(the stick) she removed from the amala she was making for our lunch. I had the mark on my back for a long time. There was a time in my life I thought it wasn't possible she actually gave birth to me. I guess old age has taken all the excess energy away from her. I still love her tho.

And oh, Indian films.... Then I used to stay up till 12am to watch Indian films on BCOS. Those days of Amar, Akbar and Anthony. With every one I watched, I must cry.

As a matter of fact when it comes to crying, Stella Damasus can't beat me o. I cry for anything, cry at weddings, burials, birthdays, a lovey dovey text can make me cry, when my once upon a time very good friend betrayed friendship, I cried, no I wailed loudly.

I have known Wildcat all my life, thank God we now live in different countries. The things we did.......................... Story for another day. She is a better story teller, will tell her to.

There was a time I was obsessed about English names, I gave myself Michelle. Ask me the reason, I don't know.

And on, I am a very shy person o. When I tell people that I like staying indoors, dem no know say the reason na because I no dey like to be in a crowd. I thought I had gotten over it until this April in Lagos. Mr O begged and begged for like 4 days to take me to the cinema. I kept saying NO, in my heart ehn, I'd rather be with him somewhere quiet than to be in the midst of plenty unknown faces who of course are minding their own businesses o. That is just me.

There are 3 important men in my life: My father, my brother and Mr O. The 3 of them can be so annoying o but what can I do?

T Minx: I didn't get your sms.


And eh, it's a new MONTH.

I pray it brings us all joy untold.
