  • Tuesday Morning Inspiration!

    Know who you are:

    It all starts from here- knowing who you really are and the things you’ll accept in your life. You can’t know what you want if you don’t know who you are. Who you are is who you say you are…and if you believe you are what you say you are then your actions and thoughts must align with that image of what you are.

    Be consistent in building your personal brand.

    Who you are will attract the (right) people and things and opportunities.

    So find yourself.

  • Are the kids reading?

    If we want a better society, if we want change and development on the increase

    If we want our economy to grow, our lives to flourish

    If we want a brighter tomorrow, a future laden with possibilities…

    It is important that we engage the little ones in the things that matter

    One of them is READING!

    Are we reading?

    And are we encouraging the kids to read?

    I am not talking academic materials only

    They need to explore life through books

    They need to visit the world through books

    Buy a book today for a child

    Help build the future of Nigeria

    Welcome to a new week!

  • Boonville Redemption- shoot starts today!

    I’ll be on the set of an American western movie, playing the role of Doris- a lady from the second generation of slave trade in America whose parents came from Nigeria. Doris is no longer a slave and she lives with her Uncle in this community where people are not judged by their race or colour. She is a strong compassionate woman who forms a bond with a young girl, Melinda, who grew up not knowing her father. Doris plays the role of convincing her Uncle to reveal the truth to this young girl about her father’s whereabouts. She also helps take care of Miss Mary, Melinda’s grandmother when she was ill and sheltered a young boy who had no place to stay.

    We are shooting in Los Angeles and this also gives me enough time to work on the post-production for my soon-to-be-released movie, Dry.

    There’s also my reality show, “Make Me Fabulous” that is also in the works. I’ve shot some episodes and I truly believe y’all will find it inspiring.

    These are exciting times!

    You, my dear regular fans of this blog, will be the first to see the behind the scene shots of Boonville Redemption. Just keep your eyes glued to Stephanie Daily.

    I wish you a wonderful weekend!

    Love, always!

  • Guys, what would you do?

    Guys, it’s your turn!

    You have been dating this lady for two years. You have been a good man to her, you have both talked about marriage and made casual plans about the future.

    Then you decide to plan an elaborate proposal. You invite both your families and friends to a classy restaurant; you have purchased an expensive diamond ring…

    She walks in, the place is dark so she cannot see all her family and friends. During dinner, with cool love music playing, the lights come on, she looks around and sees every familiar face, she is surprised.

    You go down on one knee and ask her to be your wife.

    “Sweetheart, will you marry me?”

    She looks into your eyes and says…

    “No.”

    Then walks out of the place.

    What would you do?

  • What would you do?

    Ladies, what would you do if…

    You find out your fiancé has impregnated your neighbour’s 15 year old daughter?

  • 5 cool things you can do this weekend

    So the weekend is here and you are thinking of ways to spice it up!

    Here are a few cool things you can get up to:

    Go Karaoke!

    Find a nice bar with Karaoke on the menu and sing to your heart delight! Good thing about Karaoke is that you don’t have to be a musician. Take your bathroom voice along with you and share it with everyone.

    Host friends:

    Why go out the usual way, do something different! Turn your place into a mini bar and have a few friends over. Play some music, pour some wine, prepare some finger foods and let the conversation be the icing of the cake. People are more relaxed that way.

    Play a sport:

    Go to the beach with friends and play volley ball; or find a nice field and do some outdoor sports. You stay fit and everyone has fun!

    Learn something new:

    Go swimming, learn the piano, join a yoga class…find something new and thrilling, and start learning!

    Get busy online:

    Put up an audio work on soundcloud, record a video on google plus, start a conversation on twitter, open a new group on facebook…keep your virtual life active.

    Enjoy the weekend!

    If you have to choose from the profile of these two guys, who will you pick…

    Guy A

    Works a 9-5. Isn’t always available because of his tight schedule. Gives good loving. Very handsome. Not enough money; buys a lot of things on credit. Monogamous and very kind. Lives in a two bedroom. Promising a good fun relationship.

    Pick your man!

  • What would you do if…

    Your 48 year old mum is widowed and lonely. It makes you sad because you want her to find love and happiness; so you get an idea to introduce her to your boss- a 53 year old divorced executive who is sincere, hardworking and wealthy.

    You invite your mum to a party organised in your office, and you take the opportunity to introduce the two of them (mum and boss) to each other. They share a handshake, you smile and go your merry way, hoping it would blossom into love.

    24 hours later you ask your mum if she likes your boss and if she got his number. She smiles, nods and says she’d be visiting him at his house.

    You are happy. This is playing out perfectly!

    One month later, your mother tells you she is finally dating someone. You are elated because you are sure it is your boss. They have finally started dating!

    Hmmm! But you are wrong!

    Your mother tells you she went to see your boss at his home but met his 30 year old son. There was instant chemistry the minute they looked at each other. The father (your boss) was not home, so the son urged her to stay and they connected!

    They have been keeping in touch since then. One month later he asked her out and they are now dating.

    Your 48 year old mother is dating your boss’ 30 year old son.

    How would you feel? What would you do?

  • Flashback Friday: Phone Booths

    We’ve come a long way…

    Do you remember the times when we used to have long queues at phone booths, the days of phone cards and really poor phone services?

    For some reason, I just had these thoughts today and I had such a laugh recounting these moments.

    Let’s have a good laugh today. Share your experiences with phone booths and the ‘old school’ NITEL phones we used to have before.
