Are you clean???

Hi guys! How are you guys doing? Hope you are having a fab day? I am having a great day.

Today I am talking about something interesting...PERSONAL HYGIENE...hmm personal hygiene...what about personal hygiene? How clean are you? What and what are you not doing right?
Personal hygiene is a very serious matter and should be taken very seriously because our choices makes us who we are.

If you are a dirty person don't bother trying so hard to look good because you would be wasting your time.
Good personal hygiene is the first step to good health.

First of all...Bath regularly



I cant obviously tell you how important it is to bath, I mean if you don't bath then you seriously need prayers.
Please shower daily it is the best way to get rid of any dirt, sweat and germs that your body may have accumulated throughout the day, use a sponge or if you are one of those people that use the "I dont like using sponge" line as an excuse, use a hand towel to wash your body.If you dont like using cold water, biko boil water and baff.


Secondly, Brush your teeth



It is recommended that you brush your teeth twice a day but if you wish to brush once fine! and don't forget to brush your tongue...I heard of a guy who didn't wash his tongue in months Jehov!!!!...what a sad tale, with that singular act mouth odour was unavoidable.
So I plead with you today to kindly remember to brush your teeth and tongue. Thanks and God bless you.


Next, Use deodorant and perfumes



My people, deodorants and perfumes are not luxuries, they are necessities, it would do the world good if you just use one...I mean you want to walk up to that chick knowing that you would get her number and ladies you want to leave a good impression when you give that dude a hug, save us all the horror and put on a good scent. 


Wash you hands frequently

Wash! Wash! Wash! Wash your hands, this is very important for everybody most especially children, before handling food and after using the restroom, after sneezing, coughing and blowing your nose, after counting money, playing with your pets, just before you dive into your Eba take a few minutes and wash your hands. They say "Dirty no dey kill black man" hmmm dont say I didnt warn you o, it might not kill you but when you start purging...OYO!!!


Its also very important to keep your clothes clean.

I am not saying get back from work, carry bucket and start washing, I don't do that. You can get someone to wash or if you prefer to wash it yourself, fine but what ever you do WASH YOUR CLOTHES! Oyinbo people has made life easier by inventing washing machine...so there is no excuse.


Ladies! Keep your hair clean

Keep your hair clean ooooo, wash your hair, if you dont know how to wash your hair by your self or you dont have the time, go to the saloon.

I can literally beat up any young lady who doesnt wash her hair, I mean what are you harbouring up there? Wash your hair regularly, go to the saloon and wash your hair, if you cant afford going to the saloon you can wash it your self at home.




Funny thing about dirty and smelly hair is that you can't smell it o, its your neighbour that would be suffering and you would be feeling like a fine geh, you don't want your bobo to be sleeping on the couch because you have refused to wash your hair...Lahowowo wash your hair!


And also keep your combs and brushes clean, wash them regularly and keep them dry.


For guys, get a clean hair cut and shave neatly...It would help your toasting skills, I know some guys are neat but some of my brothers out there are still falling my hand.


Moving on to Your Nails!!!

This I can talk about in my sleep, but I am not talking about the details today, that is a topic for another day. As a person you need to keep your nails clean, both your finger nails and toe nails, get a manicure and a pedicure.

Its not just for ladies its for everybody.
ladies get your nails done its not so expensive, polish your nails...there is nothing as cute as a well polished nails.




I am personally not comfortable when I see guys with really long nails, I always recommend a good trim for guys.


Your SPACE can be your room, your mansion or your self con apartment, just make sure you keep it clean, if you want to hire someone to keep it clean for you or you want to clean it yourself fine but just make sure your environment is clean.



...throw dirts away and empty your trash cans, sweep and dust surfaces. It would save you a lot of stress because a dirty environment can make you sick.


Dont share your towels or underwear and also wash them regularly...I dont understand why 5 grown ups would be sharing one towel, come on now...its very improper abeg and its ridiculous...that is how skin diseases spread.
The other one I dont understand is when someone borrows underwear, there is nothing as private as your underwear, its a personal belonging and there is a reason why it is called a personal belonging so keep it to yourself.


Clean your ears, cotton buds are not expensive at all and dont use sharp objects to clean your ears.

Last but not the least, Rest well!

This goes a long way in affecting your overall appearance, get plenty of rest and sleep well...you may think that resting is not really part of hygiene but it is what balances everything, if you dont rest well then all your efforts would be wasted because your appearance would be affected.

Lets take care of ourselves abeg, thanks and God bless!

Thanks for reading...hugs and kisses!

First Day Syndrome

Hi guys! How are u doing today? Happy new year and hope you are enjoying the new year already...I have missed you guys and I have gist o.
So I got this new job and I resumed today, it has been an interesting day so far and I like the working environment...it all started last night when my sister and I were gisting like we have not been living together,  after hours of gist I decided to resist the devil and go to bed after setting my alarm for 6am.
A phone call woke me up and I checked my time and it was 6:45am, how I did not hear my alarm ring I dont know...I jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom ...now fast forward to when I was dressed,  lemme not do nollywood style.
So, I was dressed and grabbed a pair of black peep-toe shoe and grabbed my bags, now where I live is very popular and taxis drive down the road regularly but today I didn't see any taxi, I decided to walk down the road. As I was walking my shoe started flapping o like it was over sized...jehov!!! Did my feet suddenly shrink? Hmmm I turned back and went to change the shoe to yet another peep-toe shoe.
I bounced out of my house looking hot and feeling like a CEO, I haven't gone so far when my shoe started feeling funny again, ah ah what is going on? I tried reaching for my phone in my bag and it was no where to be found. I turned back again and went back inside the house in search of my hand set...apparently I had left it on my bed, which has never happened before.
I stepped out again and my shoe sole just opened...OMG!!! Baba God take control,  I ran back inside the house and walked straight to my closet with a straight face, grabbed my black pointies and put them on...I guess I wasn't meant to wear peep-toe shoes today.
I finally found a taxi o and told him where I was going and he told me the price and I hopped in, I have only been to my new office twice and I know the street but how to get there is the problem.  When we got half way, the driver turned to me ask me where the place was...Ewo! Is this man alright? Tot he knew the place when he was tearing me bill, I am meant to resume by 8am and by 8:10 I was still doing excursion with this man.
What even annoyed me was he kept saying "Aunty sorry, the road just escape me" My God! How can I be running late on my first day? We eventually stopped and asked some "waka pass" people and found the road and that was how I got to work o.

Thank God for this new beginning in my life and If you are believing God for a job please dont stop praying because he will surely answer your prayers.
That is the story of my first day drama o, hope you guys enjoyed the gist, I would like to know what you first day experience was like...pls leave you comments below and I would definitely respond.
Thank you for reading and God bless you.
