Walks, UnBirthday's and Chocolate cups

I don't mind walking to work, it takes me 8minutes 18seconds. Its actually five hundred and fifty seven steps from my house to my office. I know this cause I timed myself last week and counted my steps this morning.

I don't mind walking to work but the thing is people stare. Yeah I know I'm beautiful and I should be admired but haba look and move your eyes away. Thank you very much. Another thing is I get honked at and offered rides, I don't like the honking bit at all. Then when I'm enjoying my walk, the peace and quiet of the morning and the sight of the beautiful blue sky before me, the nosy neighbours ask me "where is your car?" "what is wrong with your car?" I can't walk again ni?

At work, its the Boss's Un-Birthday so she got everyone in the office Cupcakes!☺

I got a chocolate one! Lol. Yes I'm excited over it, bite me!

Got to go, its lunch time. I was on a 'self given' break at the beginning of this blog. Lol. Will be blogging again sooner than you think. x

Right Now

Right now, I'm at work. This sister is done with Broadcasting school. Got a new job thanks to Hadi (I love you girl). Yes I know, I'm always doing one thing or the other, well that's the best way to gain experience and figure out what life has in store for me.

Check out my friend Shirley's blog: Another boring article about Love. We got the most exciting news  two weeks ago about Livy little bundle of joy. Then Madame Shirley decided to write a story. After reading it, it was obvious the characters were based on her real life friends. Oh well, I'm Terry in the story.

Oh yeah, I changed the name of my blog to That Ré of Sunshine, I feel this best describes me; Irede- Ire- Ré, you get it? My blog url has changed too its no longer Ire's Thoughts, its now http://thatreofsunshine.blogspot.com/  so change your bookmarks et al.

Got to get back to work. Have a great week everyone. x

Dreams

When I was younger, I used to dream and plan what my future was going to be like. Now I'm older, I'm constantly thinking, planning, altering my plans and worrying.

I used to dream a lot when I was younger of the future, who I wanted to be, what I would have achieved at a certain age and what I wanted from life.

I worry a lot cause my plans always change, but I've learnt to just go with the flow.

Just found something I wrote when I was 16.

"I dream I'm a Queen. I'm a journalist, newscaster and amazingly good at my job. I'm one of the most beautiful people in the world and I've got people wanting to be like me 'cause I've got style like no other.

I dream I'm rich and have all a girl could ask for. Then my phone vibrates under my pillow, I put my hand under it to turn it off . . .  that's when I realize I'm still the same old me I was yesterday; your average sixteen year old.

'Dreams are real, all you have to do is believe'."

A bit vain for a 16 year old you think? Here we are seven years later and to be honest, I'm sort of living my dream.

So the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria MBGN 2011 competition is coming up on the 25th of June. This is the first time I'm paying attention to it. The younger sister has decided she will be competing for MBGN 2012 so she keeps feeding us updates about this current one.

So many beautiful girls in the competition. I know who I'm voting for though.

"My name is Delphine Okobah, I'm 22 years old and I'm representing Ebonyi state (the salt of the nation) in the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria 2011 pageant.
Please vote for me because I have a good head on my shoulders and a beautiful face in front of it. I possess the right mix of intelligence and wit and I know that if I win, I'd excel at my duties."








Let's make someones dreams come true. Vote Delphine as MBGN 2011.

Dare to dream? The price of your future is your DREAM and it costs you nothing. x

The With GAIA Experience

Last Sunday at Mente De Moda, I got a massage. *sigh. It was so relaxing that when I stood up, I felt so drowsy. It felt so good, I had to ask the With Gaia massage therapist/masseuse Gabriel if I could take him home. I mean, it would be nice if whenever I got home from a stressful day, he was there. Oh well, he's opening a training school soon, so i'll be sending the future husband there some day.

With Gaia Limited offers massage therapy to reduce and manage the stress of the Nigerian worker through on-site massage. It also offers the 'corporate chair massage' which doesn't take a lot of time and is received fully clothed with no messy oils, so you can always call them for a quickie ;-).

The benefits of the With Gaia massage are immeasurable including and not limited to; releasing stress and fatigue, releasing body aches and pains, opening the mind and increasing alertness, increasing morale and productivity, lowering blood pressure, improving circulation and enhancing emotional well being.

For more information and to enjoy their mobile massage services, email: info@withgaialtd.com or call 08187726143, 07054425126.
