Ten Random things I don't think you should really know about me, but here it goes:
1) My middle name is Ngozi which actually means blessing. I think that explains a lot, my mum thought I was a blessing to her when I was born and I am always constantly waiting on one.
2) I fell in love with Keanu when I was about 10 and he must have been 20. I had just seen him in Parenthood with Steve Martin. I forget the name. I thought he looked dorky and cool and had the softest eyes, and I loved that voice. It was different. And so that began the long years of wanting and lusting after a man that does not know me.
3) I have an undergraduate degree in Law and I graduated from Law School with honors 2 and half years ago, thus spending a total of 6 years of my life in school, yet I do not have a decent job. That explains why college is soo essential kids.
4) When I was 19 I wanted to write and publish a book by my 21st birthday that wasto be a collection of my poetry. It has never happened.
5) I have more male friends than I have female friends. I find that women suffer from an incorrigible lack of trust in everyone, not only for their partners (husbands, spouses or whatever) but for their girlfriends as well. The last best friend I had acused me of sleeping (or wanting to sleep) with her boyfriend...who happened to be married. Go figure! The lack of trust on her part showed she wasn't really my friend.
6) I hate talking on the phone, hence I cannot conduct a long distance relationship. I would so easily run out of things to say, besides I love to see the expression on people's faces when they tell stories.
7) Which would explain why I want to work in Hollywood. I want to be a professional moviemaker, write, direct and produce my own movies. This should explain my fascination with all things Hollywood, their way of life, their movies, their attitude (or lack of it) THEM.
8) I can only get attracted to someone when it starts from the physical. I have to be physically attracted to the person before anything else develops. Call me shallow but it's just me. So all the men I've dated have been pretty boys--some not so smart and some so very cruel---they've all been very good-looking.
9) The love of my life is a certain guy named Sola. I fell in love with him in Law School. He had an interesting British accent that pronounced my name so sensuously that I used to pray that some day he would fall in love with me at least half as much as I was in love with him. It never worked out.
10) I have an aunty who was a professional singer, and I once danced and performed at her shows. Once, when I was 7, I actually got a standing ovation and dinner at the Governor's house. That was one of the best memories of my youth.
