The reality of perception.!

Image
Sometimes it comes off as flattering, and we get to have a laugh about it maybe even go ahead and have a bath in it(irony) but sometimes it just lowdown annoying and pretty disgusting! You seem to be this, you look to be that, then you are that and not this....(gasps)! It gets really bad when you are treated differently basing on assumptions! Will you just ask me already?, Get to know me at the very least? When you do you will find that I like many you have perceived are not anything you think! I am not my skin, not the hair on my head, not the look of my eyes or the clothes I wear! You will find that I am me, a special me a clear image free of myths concocted in your head! Many times we are judged harshly by others who seem to think we are what they'd like us to be and this affects the relations we have with them! I mean just because we look the part or rather the stereotype does not mean we slot right into it! It is only fair that we do not make wild presuppositions about a...

Untitled!

listen up, am going to try to make this real fast and simple: I did not know yow, I hardly know yow now, and clearly unless the world spins so fast around am not going to know you in quite a while so quit sticking around and get on the road if you have to because am not going to loose even a whiff of sleep over a bad, bad waste of my time like you!

Maybe am not that into you dear!

Over the last couple of days I have been called so many things by a a few of the women i know;'slow', 'unfocused' and one even went ahead to accuse me of not Knowing what is I want in life! (gasps....) Apparently I have not been trying hard enough to convince them that they belong with me, that I have not sang praises sweet enough and neither have I drowned them with the kind of flattery they dream of every time they think of the metaphorical prince charming....(gasps again) Is it 'supposed' to be like that, are we not mature enough in perception of even the very basic of things as emotion is? Why would you not know that I was treating you in a rather special sort of way Missy? Are you that plain or am I the one short of ability huh! So you got me thinking why I can't get through to you, why am I not feeling the itch, the rush the uumph to do "everything" in my reach to get you! You see am having a bit of a problem telling the difference between my...

Uganda 2011: Mao & Otunnu pittyful flops!

Image
Olara Otunnu Mao billed as Uganda's "Obama", the man who would woe Uganda's largely youthful electorate and Otunnu the blast from the past, the man with weights of diplomatic experience on his side who was seen as the shot in the arm that the Uganda' Peoples Congress so badly needed to keep afloat! These two candidates for Uganda's presidency were supposed to give the traditional favourites, Dr Besigye and incumbent Mr Museveni a run for their money and make the 2011 polls the most exciting yet! However after 106 days of nationwide campaigns these two fellas have nothing to show for their troubles except a disgraceful 0% a piece in the recent opinion polls!All that is now left is official documentation of their total waste of tax payers monies and time in just under four days when the polls are held! The question is what happened? How did they manage to turn such promise into nothing and absurdity? The answer lies in their respective strategies! Otunnu for one...

'Tunisia' has to come now for Egypt !

Image
I will go straight ahead with my thoughts on the presumption that you have been following the recent events in Egypt, Tunisia and almost the entire middle east region. So over the last couple of weeks as if in consequence to the civilian overhaul of government in Tunisia, the media has and remains awash with stories, (live streaming to be exact) of the the civillian unrest in Egypt demanding a resignation of President Mubarack and his 30 year old regime! In it's initial phases we watched in utter awe as the masses rallied and we followed them everywhere, on twitter and whatever because the world was amazed at these scenes and no one wanted to miss the fall of the mighty Hosni Mubarack, deep inside (forget the diplomacy) we all wanted to see the guy go even for the most flimsy reasons! But two weeks down the road, the old man is still in place, apart from a slight shudder in order of command (appointment of a deputy president & a new cabinet) nothing really has taken shape in te...

Valentines day is grossly overated, over publicised and subscribed!

Image
It is supposed to be a holy day in the catholic church, an annual commemoration held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions.The day is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 500 AD (wikipedia) However sometime in the middle ages, a chap started a craze associating it with romance and what not..., so that a couple of hundred years on we have this: gravely anxious couples, desperate singles, annoying businessmen all somehow conniving to make what would be a simple ordinary day, hell and hugely stressful for those of us who really don't care a thing of it! I don't mean to come off as all suave and romantic but if someone really cared about you then surely he/she would not need a 'special' day to express or rather portray his undying over the moon feelings for you! The day is littered with couples all strewn over the place in red and black! (Seriously is the best color comb...

King Kenny who?

Image
Yesterday the dear Roy Hodgson left liverpool fc under terms referred to "mutual"! but whom are we kidding, we all know that this was probably Roy's biggest gig so far (probably his last) and there was no way he was just going to give it up! Clearly as the guy said the night before, each time the team crossed that touch line, all he could do was hope that his dreams came true! Well they didn't, a string of lethargic performances let him down and not even the flamboyant English media that you could quite plausibly argue bought him lots of time when he should have gone a while ago could save him! So the cookie crumbled, salvation didn't come and the man had to leave! (by mutual consent) Step up the man, the king, the saviour, the legend, Kenny Daglish a blast from the past, picked up from a cruise in dubai to save the Blushes of the Mersysiders! "All I would say is I'm going to do the best I possibly can to try to help the club, but everybody has to pull in...
