Letter to Liam

Happy New Year guys!!!!
Life has been good and I'm thankful to God for this year and very expectant...

Last year, I think I might have fallen in love...not too sure.
I had this friend who I talked for hours with on the phone, the one that sent me those flowers. Remember? yeah.
We talked about and shared our lives, well more of his if I am to be totally honest. Our friendship fizzled off and only last year did I learn what the facebook relationship status "it's complicated" means. :D Ah well, you live and you learn.

Here is a letter I wrote to work out my feelings during our complicated relationship. He he! I've been told letter writing is therapeutic...of course, I never sent it.



10.16.11

Dear Liam,

I am writing this letter because I need to unburden my heart. You are my friend, whom I like. I think you’re incredibly honest, intelligent even though you deny it all the time.
Most days I think of you, fondly, I wake up and you’re on my mind. I want to talk to you, hear you go on about medicine, your long hours, your attendings, your family, your life.
I want to hug you and share my first kiss with you. Most days I think I want to be Mrs. Neelam. Most days you confuse the heck out of me. You send me tulips for valentines, a teddy bear from your trip to Europe, a book just because…
I fall in love with you, I flirt with you, and we’re still friends. Of course I won’t say I have a crush on you, but can’t you tell? Why can’t you see it?
You say you think you’ll “stumble” into your next relationship, you don’t know that you’re ready for one. I don’t know that I’m ready for a relationship either and I understand where you are coming from. You say your relationship patterns have been like the plot of something borrowed, and it disturbs me but I get that too.
Most days I think I love you, most days I want to hug you, most days I want to see your face as you clear your throat at the absurd things and requests I say and make. But you’re a phone guy, you don’t do video chat…or so you think.
You’re about four hours away by plane and I haven’t seen you since 2006.
Someday you say, I don’t know when someday is. I don’t know that you know either.

I do know what my heart feels. I do know that I want to be a Proverbs 31 woman. I do know that I want to be “found”. I know I want to be held, loved, kissed, and treasured.
I am uncomfortable with the uncertainties that bind our relationship but at the same time I feel like time may bring enlightenment. My friends and family ask what we are doing. I say we are friends. Friends who occasionally flirt, friends who send flowers…
So maybe you’re just a nice guy, who sends his close friends flowers, or maybe you’re inadvertently flirting out of habit, I don’t know.
I probably shouldn’t make excuses for you, I should probably clarify, ask you why?
But why not? Because my heart is becoming an interwoven braid, every strand over another woven in confusion.
The only thing I am certain of is this, you are my friend.
And I may love you.
And I pray that God’s will be done.
Love, Adia.


P.S. - His name is obviously not Liam Neelam, but I like how it twists your tongue. :D

On M.I.'s "One Naira"

I'll be the first to admit that the melody of this song is nice, makes you want to sway and sing along...
BUT...

Dear Future Boyfriend,

I WILL NOT stay with you if you have just ONE naira, heck it's not even a US dollar! One measly naira!!! Heck No!!

I will stay with you but for so long, and in that time if you do not get yourself a JOB, I will be gone!

Let's face it, money is important. I will not drink/soak garri with you! Of course I will stay with you if you have one million, who no like better thing??

So, this is just a PSA for your benefit o, if you are still in that ofu naira category, I suggest you go and upgrade yourself.

P.S. - Now, if you were the husband, that is a different kettle of fish.

Signed,

Baby I-might-stay-with-you


Enjoy the video guys! I know I've been gone for a while, but I'm still here....

MY FIRST TIME...

Happy New Year guys!!
I know I've been away way too long and the time is just flying by! I try to tell it to kayak, slow and mellow but it doesn't listen..no! It just keeps zooming by...
Yesterday, was valentine's and girls were roasting in class, but today I received a surprising expected gift from my friend. I expected a book, but here's what I got and it is my first valentine's gift ever...Here's hoping the coming years bring more wonderful gifts.

be back shortly....

P.S. - Remember I-think-I-love-you from here ? he's engaged!! I can hardly believe it!! He's like 23!

Bloody Murder

Death to cramps!!!!!
Can I get an Amen???

P.S. - Shout out to women like Leta Stetter Hollingworth whose research opened up many doors for women.

Thank You

Thank you everyone for your sympathies and comments.... Time they say heals wounds. I hope this is true.

Happy Thanksgiving!


Love,

Adia.
