You May Call It 'The Return Of The Flying Monkey' But I Freaking Love My Job!!!

If there was anything to describe where I worked .....I would call it a blend of scenes from African magic, the Chinese Dragons with a blend of scenes from the movie Men in black
I worked in a place that  had mixture of races under its employ at constant logger heads almost every minute and these arguments were about the usual things; why somesome did not do his/her job or how some one was rude to another or  about some office gossip
We didn't need any kind of Television program to entertain ourselves while we worked ..everything was at our disposal and for FREE!!! the only problem was that we could not decide what movie or which country we were visiting -as the actors chose what character they would play depending on their mood, all we needed was a bowl of pop corn
It was hilarious  because when an argument broke out ...everyone one would immediately take on a character, most of the time it was usually a Chinese kunfo character, a pissed off Nigerian market woman or some cool super hero from an American flick
Years of working in different establishments had taught me how to mange people, I also find it very interesting and overwhemling because immediately a fight or argument is over ..the people involved smile and shake hands moments later
At first it used to bother me until I saw them drink beer and pepper soup after the close of work and I'm like " variety is indeed the spice of life"
Sometimes when I hear that some of our politicians argue and fight in the open but are friends behind closed doors..I begin to  wonder if they ever worked in my office...and that in itself  has inspired my ambition to become a successful politician someday
I don't care what you think ..But I freaking love my work place!!!! hahaha!

How to make Lemon and Honey Tea

Making tea using plants and herbs has always been a thing for me because I know it contains a healthy dose of nutrients our body needs in its purest form. This is TRULY SATISFYING. You can use and citrus fruit of your choice and you can make a variety of homemade drinks from it. Have you tried it before? Please leave me a line or two in the comments

Tell the truth - does your watch really work?

Which are you? The one who has a variety of useless watches that are now makeshift bracelets or the one who would dutifully take them for repairs when the battery is flat. If you ask where I belong, I'd say with those who have turned their wristwatches into some sort of 'Wrist ornament'. I don't even own a clock, the time doesn't even read correctly in my car!  The only accurate time would be the one found on my phone - that's it!  Is there something wrong with us? Why is it that almost everyone tells time using their phones, is technology the problem? I remember those good old days... way before mobile phones and way before the computers, when our wristwatches/clocks were the only alternatives, if you didn't have one, you were screwed!  I had a wall clock, I panicked if something ever happened to it... it was like living in another reality; where you were stuck in your world and the rest of humanity were in another, you felt completely cut off m...

What is your body count?

That was the question I was asked today...The evening was going quite well for me until it went from "This has gotta be the best night ever" to "Oh no he didn't!". My facial expression changed in that instant from a smile to outrage: it became glaring that this question was off-limits. I moved around uneasily in my seat; I began thinking about how best to address the situation without coming off as the 'Crazy b***h!'  Peter was a good friend, and oftentimes we would discuss random topics of interest and argue endlessly- they were resolved amicably each time but this one wasn't one of those.  I honestly don't know how we went from discussing random things to, "So, do you mind sharing how many people you have had sexual encounters with?" I was in shock for a few seconds, If I had been drinking at the time I would have choked on it and spat it out in shock! Why was this piece of information important, why would anyone want to know the numb...
