Loving The New Quarterback

EPISODE 7       The days and weeks went by, and with each new day came a new fear.  I hadn’t still summoned the courage to talk to Ryan let alone confronting him. Whenever we bumped into each other or our eyes locked, I would somehow find a reasonable excuse to leave that spot, it didn’t seem like things would ever be the same between us again. At school, whenever we were alone, there was always this awkward moment of silence, I wouldn’t speak to him and whenever he tried to, I would pretend to hear someone calling out to me. THURSDAY EVENING …. I was lying on the couch in the smaller living room when I heard the doorbell; DING DONG! DING DONG!! I got up to see who was at the door. I looked through the peephole, the figure I saw standing right there on my front porch left me in awe, it was RYAN!!!!!. It felt like my brain was about to go blank, like I was about to lose my mind. The only words I could blurt out were “WHAT DO I DO!!!!! OMG!!!!! OMG!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!”.   Ryan having ...

EPISODE 6 Ring….ring….riiiinnnngggg…. I was still asleep when I heard a buzzing sound, I turned my head to the side-table where my phone was, then I stretched out my hands to pick it, I was surprised to see the caller ID; “ OMG ” was the only thing I could muster. I kept wondering what I could do, then thankfully the phone stopped ringing, just when I thought I could relax and catch my breath, the phone rang again, but this time it was Mindy calling me. I picked up the phone, contemplating on the options available; “ ACCEPT ” or “ DECLINE ”. I finally decided to accept the call, then I heard someone on the other end of the line say “Mindy, breakfast’s ready”, I immediate concluded that it was her mum calling her down for breakfast she in turn yelled “Just a sec, Rylie’s on the phone”. Then she returned to our conversation,  Mindy : “hey babe, how you doing?”  Rylie :  I’m just hanging. Just woke up so my eyes are still heavy, though I didn’t plan to wake up this early buh you called s...

The Reality of Life

THE REALITY OF LIFE CASE STUDY: OPPORTUNITIES IN DISGUISE. INTRODUCTION     In life, it is believed that opportunities come but once, but I would like to let you that I am not one of those people who believe in such saying.       THE REALITY OF LIFE is this; “ THERE ARE MILLIONS OF OPPORTUNITIES ”, now the problem comes in being able to identify and properly utilize these opportunities.          Having given that point, I’ll be rephrasing the saying or belief that, “ OPPORTUNITIES COME BUT ONCE ”, by saying “ OBVIOUS AND VISIBLE OPPORTUNITIES COME BUT ONCE”.  Now am certain most people would be wondering why I’ve said this, it’s because in life, “ OPPORTUNITIES COME IN DISGUISE ”, although there will be one that’ll openly present itself to you, but it’ll take a person with “ A CLEAR   VISION AND MISSION ” to know that he/she has millions, billions and even trillions of opportunities in life.    Now, let’s look at it from a business man’s point of view. In a business, there...

BLACKS UNITE TO FIGHT FOR  OUR RIGHT     CASE STUDY:  REDUCTION AND     ERADICATION OF RACISM AGAINST    THE BLACKS          DEFINITION OF RACISM       According to Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary and    Thesaurus, “Racism is the belief that people's qualities are influenced by their race and that the members of other races are not as good as the members of your own, or the resulting unfair treatment of members of other races”.      Racism, also called racialism, is any action, practice, or belief  that reflects the racial worldview—the ideology  that humans may be divided into separate and exclusive biological entities called “races”; that there is a causal link between inherited physical traits and traits of personality, intellect, morality, and other cultural and behavioral features; and that some races are innately superior to others. Since the late 20th century the notion of biological race has been recognized as a cultural invention, entirely without scientific basis....

THE REALITY OF LIFE CASE STUDY : THE POSITION OF MALES IN THE LIFE OF FEMALES. Introduction        This article involves both “ FEMALE EMPOWERMENT and the INTRODUCTION TO THE REALITY OF LIFE”.     In a bid to fight for the rights of females, people neglect the position of males in the lives of the females and this shouldn’t be so.  What exactly is the position of a male in a female's life • DOMINANCE : This is the main role of the male in the female’s life. They are to dominate of the affairs of the females, but in our world today, this is being deprived of the males by people who claim to fight for the rights of the females. We now have FEMINISTS who neglect the fact that God created the males to dominate, while the females to tend to lesser burdens.    The dominant role of the male doesn’t deprive the females of their rights, but one thing should be noted; no matter how long we (females) fight, there’ll be  no such thing as “ EQUAL RIGHTS ” between the males and females. Alth...

Episode 5  I was lost in thoughts when a lady in the restaurant suggested that I should be taken to a nearby hospital for TREATMENT. On hearing that, I immediately snapped out of my thoughts, remembering that I was surrounded by people, Literally. I quickly bounced back on my feet, though my legs felt wobbly but I tried my best to stand upright to prove that I was perfectly fine and that it was nothing but a slight hit on my head. As soon as they heard this, they began leaving to return to their previous activities. When they were all gone, Ryan said to me “ Rylie I’m so sorry that this happened, and on our official first date too. It was my fault, if I hadn’t dodged then he wouldn’t have hit you. I’m really sorry, please forgive me.”  Seeing the sweet apologetic look on his face, I replied, “ Ryan, stop the apologies, your making me feel embarrassed. I know it wasn’t your fault so please don’t blame yourself. Please it’s fine.”   After the apology scenar...

FEMALE EMPOWERMENT

FEMALE EMPOWERMENT CASE STUDY: SUCCESSFUL FEMALES IN THE LARGE WORLD OF BUSINESS Introduction        In this series of Female Empowerment, we’ll be considering females who have successfully made it in the large business world. Though it is commonly believed that the females have no place in the business world and that the males are the dominant species in the business world but I’d like to let you know that this is an inappropriate and primitive belief hence, it should be abolished.   The belief that females will forever be limited to the walls of a kitchen is unethical and degrading considering the fact that in our world today, we have millions, running into billions, of females who have successfully established a great empire for themselves and uplifted the names of their homes, despite the limitations set in front of them by the primitive belief and acts of the people of their various societies.   Some of these influential and great business women ...
