THE BUCKET

He drank the water like his life depended on it. It cooled his throat and quenched his thirst. He savored each moment and took every drop in. This was the same water…….



He just started boarding school a few months back. He has always wanted to go to boarding school. Tired of his parents treating him like a chil and tired of his siblings constantly picking on him because he is the last born of 5 children. Here he had his freedom, he could do whatever he liked, sometimes with limitations because of the school rules and regulation. Still he was given a little respect here. He was enjoying his life as a boarder that was until….


THREE DAYS BEFORE..

Until the water system started malfunctioning. All the taps in the school stopped working and he didn’t fetch water that morning because he was running late to class. He went back to his dormitory to take a nap, but it was in a state of chaos . He asked his bunk-mate ( he was also his closest friend then) what all the commotion was about. His bunk-mate went on to tell him about the water situation. All the taps in school stopped working a couple hours ago and people were already getting worried. He was like is that all. He didn’t see it as a big deal, after all it was just the first day. Maybe they will fix it before the next day.


DAY 2

Now he too was getting worried . He was glad that it was Saturday already. It was 7am in the morning and him and a couple of his friends decided to go look around for water. The school is very big, like a town of its own. There is a path in the school that leads to another town, but its quite a distance. They walked around with their buckets and keg for what seemed like forever, still no luck. They went back to their Dom tired, weak and still very much thirsty.



DAY 3

They embarked on their journey again, hoping their attempt will be fruitful this time around. They have already walked past their school to this other town without even knowing. They got to this small house and begged the inhabitant for water. The old lady who lived there said she they was also scarcity of water in their area, but she could spare them a little drink. She gave them a little cup of water to share. There were four of them, but the water was finished when the cup got to him. He looked inside the empty cup and then at his friend( bunk-mate) who took the last gulp. He was too tired to say anything. He felt like crying, but there was no need for that. They thanked the woman and returned to school.

TWILIGHT OF DAY 3

Back in his dormitory. Everybody has said their good nights and was preparing to sleep. He was still too thirsty, he couldn't sleep. At least his friends drank something that day, he needed something to drink too. He laid down on his bed for a couple of minute staring at the ceiling. thinking about his next move. He had an idea, if him and friends were not successful with their water pursuit, what about other student. With his little cup on his hands and his game plan on his head, he proceeded with his strategy. He walked around five different rooms in his dormitory ever so lightly( like a thief in the night), kicking each bucket or keg gently. If it was heavy, it meant they had water in their cans and vice versa. He kicked a bucket which felt heavy, but he couldn’t move the bucket out because the owner chained it to his bed with a padlock.( lol na wa for people sha). He came back to his room with an empty cup feeling frustrated. Just then, he saw a cockroach go under the bed, and he bent down to kill it with his shoes. He bent down and killed the cockroach, but in the process he moved his bunk-mates bucket and it felt really heavy.


He couldn’t believe it. All this time they have been going out, looking for water everywhere possible and his bunk-mate had a bucket full of water all along. He put his cup inside the bucket and brought out a cup full of water. He drank the water like his life depended on it. It cooled his throat and quenched his thirst . He savored each moment and took every drop in. This was the same water his friend refused to give him the other day at the old lady’s house. He was going to tell his friend what he thought about him the next morning. He helped himself to another cup, but he couldn’t help but notice that the water tasted different. There was something about that water. He gently brought the bucket out, he couldn’t believe his eyes. Right there, inside the bucket was a socked towel and boxers. Which must have been there for ages and has seen better days. He just stood there, staring at the bucket. I think you all know what he did next...lol


i know its not febuary yet, but happy new month people. hopefully i ll see you guyz soon. Have a good one.

ITS 2010 BABY!!!

Hello beautiful and handsome people of Blogs Villa. I know I have been a bad bad chic, I need to be spanked..lol. Happy New Year people, how has 2010 been treating you guyz. Hope everybody has been good. I know say una do tire for me already, but its not my fault jare.

I knew this year would be krazy, but not this soon. Its not even about work anymore, school has taken up all of my time( well its an accelerated program. What do I expect). I have to quit my job in the process. I never believed I would do it anytime soon, but yea I QUIT. It was really hard for me to quit that job. I was so attached to the peeps I worked with, but I gats to do what I think is right. It was right at that moment, but now that my account is blazing red, I don’t know again o( I for think twice about this thing sha). Well I am hopeful and optimistic, something good is around the corner. I just have to figure out what corner or better still use a GPS to find it…


School started like the first week of the year and they claim we have no break till Christmas week. Is that their idea of a joke because I am not laughing, I am not finding it funny one bit. In fact the way I walked around a few weeks ago feeling all sad and blue, you would think someone stole my baby, nightrider. It was so bad that someone said good morning to me and I was like what is so good about this morning. Since when did I start saying that. Its not me to say something like that ( I tire for myself, wetin dey do me sef. Na me first go school, what is it. I need to relax). I felt so bad afterwards, I told her I was trying to see how she would react.( i need to stop telling artificial lies o)


Well clinicals started already and of course something happen. People are funny sha. Okay the first incidence, I was working with a lady who was close to or about 300 pounds and I was suppose to transfer her to a chair.( shuoo me transfer who, am i transferring her or is she transferring me. no it will not walk) I couldn't’t do it alone so I asked this guy who happened to be passing by for help. I guess he is a physical therapist or something of that nature. Anyways I asked him to give me a hand and this dude said he can do it by himself.(dem know super man, ah please be my guest) Okay fine, no wahala. Dude embarked on his journey of carrying this lady. He lifted her from the bed with ease. I must say i was impressed, but within a couple of seconds this dude and the lady were on the floor. Like flat on the floor( it was a funny sight though). I don’t know how I refrained myself from laughing. Thankfully the lady and the dude were okay, but he said he hurt his back or something. I know its kind of my fault sha or is it my fault…



Second incidence the babe was trying to wash a patient up in the bed because the lady is immobilized. She prepared her water, brought soap, wash cloths, towel…. All the necessary things you need to give someone a bath . She washed her front nice and clean. Time to wash her back. Lets just say the babe forgot to follow safety procedures and the poor lady was on the floor. The lady on the floor was too shocked to react, but the babe was crying( as in better cry, sit down on the floor, hands on top head kind of cry). I really don’t know what happened to the babe because they said that was her first day on the job. Thankfully the bed was close to the ground, so the lady was not injured. One has to be very careful.



I finally saw twilight this week, yes I know people are talking about the part two or have even stopped talking about it.( abeg free me jor..). Anyways I see what all the hype was about, the movie is interesting. I can‘t wait to see the part two now, hopefully it comes out on DVD soon. Yes I also saw AVATAR with my cousin and his American friend. The dude was asking us If the movie reminded us of home because of what they wore and the fact that they were living on trees. Yea he got jokes alright( stupid boy, hisss). The movie is really nice though, you guyz should go see it and in 3D too. Abeg who has since Dbanj new video, the fall in love song. Mehh that guy needs to be flogged, ahn ahn what is that. I thought it was going to be a wedding scenario or village setting. They need to make another video, they should take note from that ekaette guy’s video( na who give my house girl belle.. Oh lord help me o…lol)



I know this post was totally random, its not my fault. I am using my spare mojo, since I can’t find the original. I heard Nice Anon left Blogs ville headquarters by air. She was last seen boarding northwest airline with a bottle of lacasera and gala. I actually loved her blog and I never got the chance to tell her. She is so funny and real, always giving us the full gist. Even during the recession, she did’t cut back on her gist, she dropped the gist like it was hot. Even though I am not here as much as I want to, I am definitely going to miss you nice anon. I know Blogs ville will too. I wish you all the best this life has to offer


Happy New Year once again blogs ville. Wishing you guyz all the best this New Year. I hope it will be great for everybody.

CHECKING OUT FOR 2009

I have been around blogs villa and I see everybody doing their end of year post, here goes mine. This year has been okay for me, I got into Nursing school( yes nursing school o, I don tell una tire, but some hippopotamus dey always assume say I dey medical school. ogini ), I had my first real job ( noticed the word real, the other jobs I was volunteering) and of course I opened this blog. I must say its one of the best thing I did this year.



When I started the blog, I had no idea what it will be about, thus the name Brownskinaijachic ( una don see blog wey no get title before, well here you go, I like it though J). I started working the month I opened this blog, thus Mr.S, HGF and reggie became part of the blog. From that point, the stories started pouring out, VSNC, Pale( the agbaya), Both my granmas, my dad( I miss him so so much) and my experiences. You guyz are taking a journey into my life. Pretty boring right…lol




I am certain I am going to quit my job, School starts on Monday for me( with that expired exam… yeye people) and I am not the only one working on New Year’s day, so I don’t feel so bad..lol. I was talking to my friend the other day( one of the busybodies that know about my blog, I tire oh) and she said my post has changed recently and she thinks I have lost my blog mojo. I kind of feel the babe sha, I know I don’t want to quit blogger just yet. I enjoy it here too much to do that. 2010 the year of finding my mojo abi..




I know 2010 will be a busy year for me, but I will try to keep in touch with you guyz. I am truly grateful for all the love( yes I know its love, talk true ..lol) you guyz have shown me in this Blogsville. Its really amazing, this blogger is a planet on its own, a whole new world and I am glad I am a part of it. Thanks for all the comments, my followers, dedicated readers, and those who just come to look at bsnc’s picture..lol( you will be surprised, I tell you). I would have loved to give shout outs, but in my 50th post I gave shout outs to almost or over 200 people and people still curse me put. I have learned my lesson biko..


And of course I will try and end the year with my gift of smiles



A 90-year-old man was having his annual checkup and the doctor asked him how he was feeling. "I've never been better!" he boasted. "I've got an eighteen year old bride who's pregnant and having my child! What do you think about that?"

The doctor considered this for a moment, then said, "Let me tell you a story. I knew a guy who was an avid hunter. He never missed a season. But one day went out in a bit of a hurry and he accidentally grabbed his umbrella instead of his gun." The doctor continued, "So he was in the woods and suddenly a grizzly bear appeared in front of him! He raised up his umbrella, pointed it at the bear and squeezed the handle. And do you know what happened?"

Dumbfounded, the old man replied "No." The doctor finished, "The bear dropped dead in front of him!" "That's impossible!" exclaimed the old man. "Someone else must have shot that bear."

"That's kind of what I'm getting at," replied the doctor




Thanks Blogsville. I wish you all a fulfilling, prosperous New Year!!


It’s a Wrap Ladies and Gentlemen. See you Next year

PLEASURES

The woman entered the room, and with a knowing smile teasing her full lips,she sank into the comfort of the plush chair in the corner. The handsome stranger turned, having sensed her approach.Locking his steely gray eyes on hers, he moved slowly toward her,his experienced gaze measuring her, hypnotizing her with his soft murmurs of assurance. He sank to his knees before her and without a word, smoothly released her from her constraining attire.With a sigh of surrender, she allowed his foreign hands to unleash her bare flesh. He expertly guided his hands through this tender,often hidden territory, his movements deliberate, confident in his ability to satisfy her every need. Her senses swam.She was overcome with an aching desire that had gone unfulfilled for so long. And, just as it seemed that ecstasy was within her grasp, he paused, and for one heart-stopping moment, she thought,"It's too big!.....it will never fit!" Then, with a sudden rush, it slid into place as if it had been made only for her. As pleasure and contentment washed over her, she met his steady gaze, tears of gratitude shining in her eyes. And he knew it wouldn't be long before she returned. Oh, yes, this woman would want more.She would want to do it again and again and again.

Because she loves shopping for shoes....

lol yea i got you...

BED OR CAKE

A HUSBAND IS AT HOME WATCHING A FOOTBALL GAME WHEN HIS WIFE INTERRUPTS,HONEY, COULD YOU FIX THE LIGHT IN THE HALLWAY? IT'S BEEN FLICKERING FOR WEEKS NOW.

MEET ME HALFWAY

Hello Beautiful people, how are you guyz doing. I picked that title because i like the song by black eyed pea. Okay where do i start from now, hmmm let me see umm..... yes my exams. I told you guyz i have exams, guess what those hippopotamus did. I will tell you what they did.... They POSTPONED MY EXAMS TO NEXT YEAR, yes next year. Can you imagine me thinking of an exam next year, how can i enjoy this Christmas . Picture me having a plate of home made jollof rice and tantalizing chicken, and the next thing i think about is oops i have an exam next year, i have a plate of salad and , oops i have an exam next year, i have a ...... yea you guyz get the picture. Everything is going to taste like exams this year (like i know how that taste..).











Guess who worked on Easter day, her birthday.... hold it, hold that thought and who is still working on christmas and new year day. Yes i think you know who, me of course.., funny right. Yes this people refuse to give me one of these day off, just one day ( and they ask me why i want to quit my job, err.... yea that ). Moving on, what have i been up to these past few weeks, umm yea GNG said, and i quote " i guess now that reggie is gone your job is no longer fun that you want to quit". she said she was joking though.( umm... sure GNG..lol). Well my job is far from boring hehe, far from it i tell you. Infact someone else moved in *ahem ahem*

Relax jo, no gist there. Well maybe a little gist, but its not what you have not heard before. Its kind of deja vu, same thing in reggie's case. The difference in this new guyz case is that i don't really have his time( maybe cos i have been really busy) or i am not just into him. i am not saying i was into reggie per say.... anywaysss.. like i said, they is no gist there.

I recently met the resident dude again ( remember him, yea him). Come to find out he is a friend of a friend's boyfriend. If you see this dude's babe, chai blood of Jesus. Lord i know you made everybody in your own image and everyone is beautiful in their own way, but ehn... hmm i don't know sha, maybe most of the time i see her, its kind of dark or maybe i need to see her during the day( and the babe can form too, people ). Compared to the guy's look, the babe... well what is my own inside abi. The guy sees something in her ( dem say one man's meat is another man's poison). Why am i going on about the chic. I met the guy at a friend's get together. He was the first person i recognised when i got to my friend's place. For some strange reason( don't ask me o..lol) i acted like i didn't see.

5 minutes later, someone tapped me on my shoulders. I turned around to the resident dude, and he was like hey don't you remember me. I met you at so so hospital, i looked at him like i was trying to figure out where i have met him before( when i clearly remember me, sometimes i don't understand me...lol). I was like yesssss, i remember you now. You are the guy i met at....... and we went on and on for about 30 minutes. I must have done or said something funny because dude was almost choking on his drink. I saw my friend and this babe coming towards our directions and before i could finish saying hello to my friend, the other babe eyed me, hissed (a very long hiss at that) and took the resident dude away, not even an excuse me or hello. I looked at my friend and she was like that's the resident's babe, i should ignore her because she is just being herself. A few hours later, i saw the resident dude coming towards my direction again.( shuoo this dude no go stay one place, wetin now) I looked around and i saw his girlfriend giving me the dagger look( like i knew). I told my friend i had to go home because i had to go to work the next day( which was true) and i was kind of tired. I took my two left legs and left that party o, sharply ( abeg no be me person wan use practise mike tyson 101)

In a not so related topic, we did this little project in school the other day. Its like a physical examination. We were suppose to examine some part of a patients body ( in this case our fellow student). Everybody paired up with someone and because i was a little bit late, i had to pair up with pale( please don't even let me start with that agbaya). It wasn't a fun activity for me because this agbaya had to touch me during this project. I tolorated him for a while, everything was going on well until we reached the breast examination part. I saw him advancing his hands towards my babies( lol yea my babies), i could see the excitement in his eyes ( see this yeye man)

bsnc: what do you think you are doing, you better control that your hand

pale: bsnc this is part of the project na, don't you want me to learn

bsnc: hmm i am warning you, you better not touch me.

pale: *silence* ( still moving forward)

bsnc: I bought out my pen. pale i swear if you touch me, i will chuk you with this biro.

We were going back and forth until he called our professor on me and she told him to pair up with another guy. She said at this stage, we can pair up with the same gender during intimate examination. Pale gree hear, dude started his sermon and he was blasting vocabulary i never knew exited ( all this one for breast, idiot ). To say the list pale said he was disappointed at me.( in himself that is). I hope i don't have any class with him next semester, i really hope so.

Compliments of the season.
