OPINIONS: Tonto's Publicity Strategy

I don't have a thing for Nigerian typecast actors/actresses that are just overrated. But...

About a month ago when the release of Tonto Dike's debut single was an opportunity for Nigerians to flex their creative comic abilities, my brother and I argued objectively on the possibility of it being a publicity strategy.

May be we were right or what do you think?

Kini Big Deal? Why Do You Scream TGIF?

As I gradually got conscious from sleep this morning, I was thinking it was Saturday so I had the license to sleep a little more. Then I remembered it was Friday and mumbled a 'Thank God its Friday' that sounded like 'I wish it was Saturday'. What I really wanted was the ending of Friday not the beginning.

When I got to the office I overheard one of my colleagues ask if today was Thursday, when she heard that it was Friday instead, she screamed excitingly, 'Thank God its Friday'. I could really understand because Thursday is the most hectic day for us at the company.

I wondered why working class people always screamed TGIF. I understood why when I was in Secondary school. Though Fridays during my University days didn't make any difference for me, I always judged from the other side of being employed in 8-5 jobs that screaming TGIF meant an unfulfilled life on the job.

I guess I'm about to eat my words (No! thots), cause I'm sure I'm not ready to admit that I'm beginning to look like a 'butterfly in a wheel' when I don't feel like getting up from the bed on Monday mornings.

:^) I'm wondering why because I've never screamed TGIF with excitement. I wonder what makes Fridays special. I know the weekend that starts with Friday means time unwind, but I just wonder why the thrill about unwinding.

TGIF! and I plan to rock this Friday till Monday.

But I'm not sure I know how that 's going to happen.
How do you plan to spend the weekend?
Where do you intend to go to have great fun?
Maybe I could take a cue from you.

Please don't include laundry or house chores o. LOL!

Dear Reader, Your Turn To Give Advice.

"Okay bye dear" She got off the phone

Is that 'new boyfriend' or 'old boyfriend'? I asked

"Old boyfriend', why?"

"You didn't sound like he's old boyfriend" I retorted. Of course I knew he was 'old boyfriend', but if she didn't tell you they had broken up, you wouldn't know.

"I don't understand, we're still friends, are you saying we should not talk?"

"I'm not saying that, but I'm just wondering how you are going to move on from a relationship that has ended over six months ago. How do you intend to get into another relationship, if you are still hanging on to this one that has ended?"

"What if we get back together?"

"Really? Like seriously?..." Didn't know what next to say.

Must we ladies be like this sometimes? Abeg! Share your thoughts

Is this lady disillusioned?

SOS: I Need Your Advice

In the space of sunrise and sunset feelings could change from high and butterflies in my tummy, to low and with a broken heart.

It seems every time I try to give love a shot it keeps backfiring.

What's the bone of contention?

He seemed really interested in me, nice, and we got talking.

And every bit of detail he told me about himself did not turn me off.

Till I became his friend on Facebook and I saw the pictures on his timeline...

Oh no! I can't be compatible with that kind of lifestyle, things that look like porn, he drinks and so on...

Are you sure you're not being judgmental? I guess he was being open with himself, not hiding his lifestyle from something as public as social media.

Am I?

I was beginning to like him!

But there are somethings that would not go down well with me.

As confused as I feel right now, knowing that I like him already

You could say I'm not sure of what I want...but I'm really sure of what I DON'T want.

You seem angry too. So why do you have a broken heart?

I don't know... the way I was knowing and liking him, it just seemed very disappointing that he was not all that I was thinking he was or should I say he's not what I was expecting him to be.

I feel terrible liking someone who I think I can't have a healthy relationship with because I'm not cool with his lifestyle.

It seems like I should know what to do, but really what should I do?

She mops the tears welled up in her eyes with a white handkerchief she kept handy.

Imagine you are the person sitting across this woman telling you what she's going through what would you tell her?
