......I walked away not looking back. I walked towards the home from which I had just come out of. As I watched everything going on around me, I noticed that I had some wet cloth in my hand. It had so much water in it and so I had to squeeze the water out. As I was doing this, a lady walked up to me and said that I shouldn't do it at the entrance of the home to prevent mosquitoes from flooding their home. I moved away from the entrance and went to spread the cloth so it could dry. While doing this, an older lady in the form of Lady C's mom (my friend's mom with whom I was staying with a while back...blogged about them 4 months ago) saw me and said thank you so much, may God bless you. I don't know what she was thanking me for but I responded saying that it was all to God's glory and that she could count on me to help at any time. She also advised me to be very watchful, careful and that I should be prayerful cuz there's always evil lurking around the corner......and that's when I woke up.
.......I woke up and prayed but usually I'll go back to sleep. I couldn't cuz the dream kept replaying in my mind. Mind you this was about 5:50am. Immediately reached for my fone. I picked it up and noticed that someone called from a private number and left a voicemail. I listened to my voicemail and it scared me. The person who called didn't leave a message instead I heard a yell and some background noise (kinda like a chain saw used for cutting down trees) and some nonsense syllables. That was it! I called my sister but she was studying for her exam and so I had to call my mum. I told her about my dream and she said she was gonna call me back cuz she was still on her prayerline and they were praying for everyone's kids.
My mum called back and she basically said that I shouldn't commit to any other organizations. She also said that I should cancel all notions about joining a sorority cuz on paper they'll make it seem real good but you never know what it entails until you finally get in. I must admit that she's right cuz even when I heard a bunch of stories about what they do to you sometimes, I refused to pay attention. In my head I just said it will be like me going to boarding school all over again and being in the hands of people who want to make life hell for you....even if they claim it humbles you. She prayed for me and said that whoever God has put in my hands to help out, may God give me everything I'll need to help them out. She went on to say that when she told the peeps on her prayerline, one of the ladies said that everything that the enemy is trying to use to lure me has been broken and that I've gotten my victory. I'm glad to have a mother who prays fervently.
I told Pretty boi about it and he told me that I shouldn't be scared about the voicemail cuz one of our friends tried calling me but couldn't get to me. He also said that the reason why it must have showed up as private was cuz he was back in Naija. So with that being said I had a very pleasant day. I thank God for the dream and whenever I remember a dream He's tryna tell me something. So my Prayer is that I'm sensitive to what He wants to show me and what He's preparing me for.
Have great weekend!

I had a dream......conclusion part

I had a dream.....
I had mentioned in one of my posts about how I filled out an application to join one of the prominent sororities and how I didn't get accepted. I was starting to get used to the fact that I didn't get in, and the fact that I won't get to do everything that I had already envisioned. I felt all excited when one of the Naija girls in school called me aside and told me that she was thinking of starting a sorority on our campus. I was really happy when she brought it up cuz I've been thinking about that but I just didn't know how to go about it. I asked her what her reasons were about starting one and she explained that all we'll have to do is to start a chapter on our campus and it's gonna be an African sorority that had already been founded a couple of years ago. All that we'll need is to fill out an application and have at least 5 members at least.I just told her to send me the link and I will take a look at it and find out their goals or what they were about. Up until to day I haven't gotten anything from her. I started off with this because I believe it sort of has a link to my dream.
I usually get on this conference line called youth alive, it starts about 10:30 and we don't get done until about midnight. Yesterday was really great because people gave testimonies and I couldn't help but worship God for who He is. I went to bed after taking pain killers cuz my head was banging due to lack of sleep the night before. And I had a dream.....In this dream, I was in a car and all of a sudden I found myself in a parking lot with a girl in my school that I don't talk to in anyway, form or shape. Of course I see her almost everyday at school but I didn't get to know her by name until I realized that she also wanted to be in the same sorority that I applied for. As if that wasn't weird enough, I was talking to her about how God works in mysterious ways and I believe that there was a very good reason why I didn't get picked. I also explained to her that God wanted to do something great in her life that's why she was picked in the first place but was dropped as she was about to pay her fees (due to some back stabbing so-called friend who was jealous and told the sorors (the girls who were making the cut) something about this girl....I'll call her Miss M. So Miss M offered to drop me off back at school cuz she had already taken up my time. As we approached the car, I realized that she wasn't gonna be the one driving. I hopped in the back seat and noticed that Miss E was in the back seat also (Miss E is the Treasurer of an organization I'm part of...I must also add that she's gay). As Miss M sat in the passengers seat, I looked and noticed that it wasn't Miss M anymore, it was Miss B (who is the president of my organization, and Miss E's partner). I didn't feel strange in anyway and the guy who was driving was one of the girl's Dad. The guy had dreads that looked so unkempt and nasty looking....I'll call him DGW (Dreads Gone Wrong). DGW decided to drop me off but first he wanted to stop by at home to get some stuff. As he was driving the scene changed and I noticed that we were in a village-like setting. We kept driving and DGW told us that we were about getting to the shrine were the Native Dr. stayed and that we have to be as quiet as ever. As we drove past the shrine I could see some red cloths and some white stuff hanging from the entrance of the shrine. And that's when Miss B laughed...she laughed so loud that DGW had to drive faster than he was cuz this guy from nowhere started chasing after us. The guy was yelling and screaming at us, claimed that we wouldn't be let back into the town and Miss B laughing signified that she was mocking the Native Dr. DGW immediately told us to duck, meanwhile I was praying silently. I was scared cuz I didn't know what was gonna happen next. At long last we got to DGW's house, we went in and he got what we wanted to get. As we were about leaving so that I could be dropped off, we noticed that the people that were outside started running back into their homes. We asked what was going on and we were told that the native dr. was going around, into people's homes to talk to each family cuz of what happened earlier. We went in and I just laid on the floor as if I was sleeping but I was praying. The native dr finally got to DGW's home and immediately he walked in, he said that there were two foreigners in there and they had to leave because they weren't a part of what he was about to talk about. I still pretended as if I was sleeping and that's when someone tapped me and said I should get out. I was asked to get out through the window. I quickly got up and jumped out. As I was jumping down, I saw some people who were fighting. I don't know what they were fighting about but then a boy (between the ages of 7-9) was shoved into my arms. He was crying and coughing at the same time. I moved to a place where there was less chaos and I noticed that I wasn't holding a boy anymore.....the boy became a girl. As I was standing with the girl, a group of people passed by me. They were crying, waiting on the native dr. to come out so that he could heal the girl they were holding. I was still holding unto the girl that was with me, suddenly a bunch of people came up to me, asked the girl to open up her mouth and they pulled out a long stick. Right away the girl fell from my hands and I walked away.

A whole bunch of here and theres
This week is almost over and I'm so blessed to be alive. I thank God for my family, Pretty boi *smiles*, my friends, enemies and well wishers.
With that being said I'll be in Chi-town this weekend for one type of leadership conference like that. Although I have an exam on Monday but I think I need this trip cuz it's gonna be worth it. I'll think about my exam when I get back.
I've been extra happy lately and I think I know why but hey I can't help it. My body has been doing me gis-gis....I think my hormones are fighting one type of war. They just can't help it!
May God deliver me from yeye friends....those that won't help me move forward. At this point I'm thinking about going solo. Girls have issues, I'm on the verge on almost hating girls. Got to find out that one of the girls lied to me but you know what that's life. I spoke to my mom and Pretty boi about it and they said exactly the same thing. Most of my guyfriends on the other hand like me and I don't want that at all. Not in the mood to deal with all their bs. I'm tired mehn! One of the reasons why I love my guy friends is cuz they are easier to handle when it comes to wahala and I have the most fun with my girlfriends. I don't know what to do oooooo. GOD HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLP ME!
My mum's the best! I love her to death. I wanna cry just talking about her but I can't cuz peeps are watching. I told her about a month ago that I liked Pretty boi and that she should pray about it. I didn't say who exactly he was tho. I mean she knows that Pretty boi and I have been friends since 2004 but I never told her that we've been dating for more than 2yrs now. You know how parents get you bring a guy to introduce him as ur boyfriend. Well sha she called me yesterday asking about where this guy was from and I told her I wasn't sure cuz I didn't want her to immediately know who it was. She gave me this lecture about how I need to know his background and that she's hoping he's not from Ogun State....Ijebu to be precise. I started cracking up when she said "you know they can be stingy." She went on to say may an Ondo boy would be good cuz they can take care of their ladies. In my head I'm like where is she getting all this info from? My mom's lovely what can I say? Then she went to ask about where Pretty boi's parents were from and I should let her know as soon as I find out. I wanted to ask why Pretty boi? Why couldn't it be any of my other guy friends...like Elongated or Shake & that's when it struck me....I think she knows it's Pretty boi I'm talking about.
I gats to bounce...have to be in class in some few seconds. Have a blessed weekend peeps. I love you but God loves you most.

Spring break disasterssssssssssssssss
I know I suck and I'm sorry for that. I've been meaning to post this up....started writing it on the 25th of last month and I've been meaning to finish it up but that's what school does to me. Too much going on in so little time.
I got on spring break last week and I was glad cuz I thot to myself "oooo I'm gonna stay on blogsville throughout the week before school gets hectic all over again." To my dismay it wasn't all that. It was the opposite. I thot I was gonna die.....first off my trip to Florida failed cuz one of the drivers got into an accident. See the Devil is a very big, fat LIAR. He will never succeed lailai. I sha decided to go say hello to my family and I fell terribly sick....hmmmm the devil is very stupid....wo ori esu ti fokasibe. I went to church and about three peeps asked if I was pregnant cuz I looked so out of it....kini? se won fe fun mi l'oyun ni? (what? do they want to impregnate me?) But of course I'm not, only if there's gonna be a 2nd virgin Mary. Didn't get the chance to do anything....I lost weight which is terrible cuz of the fact that I really don't have any meat on my bones.
To top it all off I got my letter from the sorority I wanted to get into.....I DIDN'T GET ACCEPTED! What? How? Why? I just couldn't answer the questions that kept seeping into my tiny head. An insider told me "Lisa they really want you tho but like they said you had to be full time this semester and the one before." These mofos are liars......I got to find out that a girl who is part time this semester was chosen. Still can't understand what their reasons would have been for not picking me. I stopped asking questions after coming to a conclusion that God's hands were definitely in it. I prayed about it so many times because I wanted it so bad but then about 5 of my peeps, including Pretty boi weren't so keen about me joining a sorority......the more reason why I feel it wasn't meant to be. So I'm living life the way I'm supposed to and I'm so blessed to have God by my side. I'm learning each and everyday that "when we know that God's hand is in everything, we can leave everything in God's hand."
Ciao my people of blogsville.....I love you but God loves you best.
