New Job: Walking amongst Kings&Quuens

Oh Em Geeeee!

A SUPER and a Thicck hellooo to you guys!!!
so my life has taken a very unexpected but exciting turn!

After months of 'lazing' about really and chilling, I got sick of lounging about the house and decided to look for another job!

I am happy to inform you that i am now PA to Ghana's entertainment god-father, socialite, barrister, fashion guru, PR guru and an all round DIVA extroadinare: Mr (Uncle) Chester Anie.

Never in my wildest dreams did I think this would ever happen to me.
here are a couple of picture to depict my first week on the job, the handsome chap in the pictures making all the ladies smile is my eloquent, elegant and dashing boss, Uncle Chester!

This week has been hectic as we have been filimg the second season of Ghana's answer to the acclaimed 'Fashion Police' on E!, Fahsion 101.
Fahsion 101 will now be shown on DSTV, Africa Magic, Viasat 1, TV 3 and Silverbird.
here are some of the guests we have had on set this week.

I will leave it here before I bore you with my excitement...!
I have to rush off...duty calls but remember, till next time...keep it Thicck!

Call me heartless...I don't mind cos B!itch is my first name!

Well, hi there!

As much as I am trying my best to refrain from an outburst, I think I just have to let it out.
Ok this is it:
In the past year or so I've met countless men who have been attracted to me and whom I've taken a liking to in one way or another.
Men from all walks of life, ages, races, societal statuses etc.
I enjoy meeting people a lot as its part of my job and my personality attracts people everywhere I go.
I used to think this was great until very recently!

So back to my out burst, so there two particular guys who 'like' me. As nice and cute as that may be, this 'liking' has now become an infatuation which frankly is just ANNOYING!
so you like me so what, does that give you reason to act a fool when you see me with another man ( whom I'm not even dating).

Ladies please tell me,is this normal?
To me, a man who is not and has never been my man, a man whom I've never dated or agreed to anything outside of friendship acting like this is just weak and a pest.

I'm sure some of my readers may find this behaviour sweet and admirable but to me it's stupid and creepy.
My Yes is a Yes and when I say I only see you as a friend that's what I mean. I know a lot of women say one thing but mean another but I don't know how many ways I can show these creeps that I mean what I say.

And what annoys me most is when they act the victim, like you're cheating on them by commenting on your pictures on Facebook, Instagram and even calling you to ask you questions...

I know you're thinking 'why don't you just delete them' well the answer is I don't know how to droit on my ipad3 yet so if you do please let me know how!

If you think I'm heartless, the answer is maybe. I cannot be made to feel bad because I do not feel the same way about another person.
When did it become a crime to want your own happiness? Is it mandatory to LIKE you back?

I have been nice and respectful but that just confuses them more into thinking maybe their charms are working on me so now I will be stern and firm and yes even rude...politely of course.

Sorry I had to vent out like this but we're friends and friends are supposed to deal with these things together...lol

Well I'm off...have a nice and please let me know what you think I should do...!

Till next time, keep it Thicck!

Too sexy for Christianity?

I am sick and tired of so called Christian women using Christianity as an excuse not to take pride in their personal appearance.

No where in the bible does it say That looking after your hair and dressing nice and trendy or wearing make-up makes you a heathen or sinner or does it? 

Ladies, we must take pride in ourselves (not at all costs) but at least look presentable and womanly.

I mean a little blusher or trim around the eyebrows will not send you to hell I can guarantee. 

Of course looking good does not mean putting your goodies up on display or masking and burying your face in make but a little mascara will not hurt either. 

I get it you wanna stay pure and holy but please invest in a cleanser and face scrub to keep your pours clean n clear.

No one is going to judge you. Embrace your womanhood and take pride in it.

Don't do it for attention or likes on Facebook and Instagram,  do it because you love you!

Till next time....lets keep it Thicck

Pocket full of Sunshine

what do you do when you're alone in an unfamiliar country trying to adjust and the one person you choose to trust betrays you?

what do you do when the reality you believed for years is suddenly crushed like an unruly mosquito?
 Well what most people tend to do is to flee from the situation or crawl back in their shell.

In the past, I have done the same and even worst, however now, I choose to face it head on and fight for what I believe is right.

I don't know why I'm blogging about this topic to be honest but I know someone out there needs to hear this.

Choosing to fight for what's yours or choosing to face your adversities head on does not make you stupid or blindly brave but it helps you deal with and accept the situation.
This in turn helps you deal with what you are going through because i believe as you face the situation, you will find the answers to the questions you have.

Remember, in all you do and face, remain peaceful because it is in the calm of the storm that you will find answers NoT in the chaos.

Till next time, keep it Thicck!

My Desire

How many people can say "this song was written for me" in their life time?
Not many!
Well it was not exactly written for me but it does have my name in it, Desire, and it is a wonderful song so please listen and enjoy!

The song is a fusion between contemporary Jazz and African Beats.

My Desire was written and composed by the great Steve Bedi

Mr. Bedi hails from Ghana and has shared the stage with giants in the industry such as the great Hugh Masakele, the Osibisa band and some local artistes like Kwabena Kwabena and Wutah.

He is the reigning Instrumentalist of the year 2012, an award received at the annual Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.

Whats you flavour?

As I stare blankly at my keypad, a rush of thoughts surges through my head. I have a whole lot on my mind lately, a lot of unanswered questions.

However, the one that perhaps stands out the most is the one that my ‘buddy’ (yes that’s what we shall refer to him) asked me this evening; “WHAT IS YOUR TYPE/FLAVOUR?”

You see, I’m getting to that age where you actually realize that there is no excuse anymore, that you are actually an adult. You look around you and all your mates are settling down, the wedding invites start coming in, baby showers left right and centre and well you look at your life (well mine anyway) and all you have is a great job, good friends and a loving family.

Don’t get me wrong, these are really great things to have in one’s life but at this stage you as k yourself, is this going to be my life? I’m I going to be that aunty that has the nice house and car and all the trimming but no husband or kids?

I think this is what they normally refer to as ‘the pressure’ phase.

You see, on the one hand I think it’s time for the settling and the baby thing because let’s face it, I’m not getting any younger and quite frankly, life gets a bit lonely.

And then on the other hand, (and this is usually my inner DIVA doing the thinking) I think what is the rush; enjoy life, you only live once! Why let a man and a baby cut your fun…! You’re not even ready, you still have a career to build and plenty more fishes to sample. LOL

However, perhaps the scariest aspect of this psychological turmoil finding the answer this simple but important question: “WHAT IS YOUR TYPE?” 

What IS my type?

What is it that I want from a man?

What can I offer a ‘life’ partner?

What can they offer me?

What virtues I’m I looking for in a man?

Height?  Religion? Bank balance? Built? Race?

What is my type?

It seemed so simple to answer until I actually attempted to and found out that in actuality I have never sat down to think this through!

Then it dawned on me…I DON’T KNOW WHAT IM LOOKING FOR!

I’m not even sure if I have been looking!

After I got over the shock of my reality, I become conscious of the fact that in the last two years, all my attention has been given to my career and building on it.

You’re probably thinking why it is a shocking realization; well I always thought I knew what I wanted without taking the time to access those thoughts. Since leaving University, I have not seriously entertained the idea of a love interest or perusing it to eternity.

The moral of the story is, if you want something or think you are ready for something, take the time to evaluate and analyze why you want that thing and more importantly, What it is you are actually looking for…do not rush!

LETS GET IT ON

 Hello Thicckens,

I know its been a while but i hope you welcome me back with open arms

Ok, so imagine getting dressed. To hit the town with your girls for a night out of fun and antics!

You hit the town, the vibe is great, and you’re feeling good and you down your first glass of cocktail.

As the sweet sensation of the sweet flavours travels down your throat, you begin to let go of the weeks stress and as your muscles relax your feet begins to alert you to take another sip and make your way to the dance floor to show your girls your version of the Azonto!

Sounds amazing huh?

Well imagine all this being cut short being interrupted by an obnoxious man who thinks that the fact that you have made the effort to dress up and are looking good, that this warrants an invitation for compliments and, most of the time, unwanted attention.

Don't get me wrong! It’s always nice to be complimented but there are ways to go about it!

And invading my personal space and interrupting my ‘down’ time with my friends is NOT the time.

What I don't understand is why men think that every woman out in a club or in bar looking good is waiting for a guys attention!

And the fact that most of them are not even clued on how to act like a gentleman and how to approach a woman is what makes the whole situation awkward and annoying!

Ok, imagine a grown woman who’s paid her own fee to enter the club, bought her own drinks and a man sending his friends over to summon her like a school girl waiting to be noticed by her crush or better still, like a person being called by her boss!

I mean how would you expect her to react?

It’s different when it comes to some insecure women whose self esteem and confidence is dependent on such demeaning acts from the opposite sex but from a self respecting woman like most women out there that I know,  this is an issue so guys take note!

Guys! Will it hurt to just admire from afar? Or if you must talk to us to boost your own egos please learn to do it with caution and some respect!

I mean will it hurt to walk up to a woman and say ‘excuse me miss I think you look very 'beautiful' tonight!’

NOTE: Don't say 'hot' or 'sexy' because you don't know her well enough to feel that free with her!

Gone are the days when men were actually anxious, nervous even fearful to approach a woman because of the respect he accorded her and how much they valued us!

Guys! Let's try and get back to that because we appreciate that and I bet you that will get you the number quicker than your ‘waste’ lines you picked up from American movies or from Hip Hop songs!

Till next time, let's keep Thicck!

Hello Thicckens!
Longest time! I hope you have missed me as much I do you!

I really wish I could write and update the blog on the road like through BB but I have not been able to find the 'app' for it.

I am constantly traveling and therefore can not write which depresses me.

Anyway, I am on holiday now in New York for my birthday so I have sometime to get back to writing.

I am looking forward to reading Steve Harvey's Best seller 'Think like a Man' and review it.
