So I’m busy minding my own and this dude decides to call me Mohock (I believe he meant Mohawk). The ‘star’ in me I gogold (I believe I meant googled), Mohawk.
I turns out I don’t have a Mohawk, I have a Faux-Hawk. I know this might not mean much to you my dear Reader but sure does meant alot to me.

In my Head, “So I walk up to this dude and just as I’m about to correct him, I realise faux-hawk is just wierd (I believe I meant weird).”
I’ve pointed a gun at my foot too many times before so not going to do it again.

FYI People,
1. Origin of the Mohawk: Red Indians (Ululating)
2. Types of Mohawks: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohawk_hairstyle (couldn’t be bothered to write them all down – Love you all)

Now that you’ve met the Hawks, I’ll be on my way.

One of my bosses just called me Stamina, what’s up with that!? Tsetsetse.

someone with TRUE swagger does not need to announce to the entire room that he has swagger. The people around him just KNOW it

The verb swagger has 3 meanings:

Meaning #1: to walk with a lofty proud gait, often in an attempt to impress others
Synonyms: ruffle, prance, strut, sashay, cock

Meaning #2: discourage or frighten with threats or a domineering manner; intimidate
Synonyms: browbeat, bully

Meaning #3: act in an arrogant, overly self-assured, or conceited manner
Synonyms: bluster, swash

These are the definitions that i find and i think (they actually did) they make me dimise anyone who seriously says, “a swagger like mine”

I also found out that the British use it as a verbal slang, but this definition is ok

Meaning #1: (British informal) very chic
Synonym: groovy

I am confident that when Nichole from PCD uses it to refer to Kells in ‘Out of this club’ that’s the right context for the word:

I just might leave this club with him
And his swagger tight, I’m feeling…

Yeah, that’s exactly what i’m talking about; that kind of context!

Check out these definitions.

Take for example, for a second there:

1. i thought that fire truck was heading in the same direction as i was (MMD)
2. i thought you were on the phone (BMD)
3. i hoped i had been left behind (BMD)
4. i thought this article was about people (BMD)
5. i thought it was just my imagination (MMD)
6. i thought you were mum (MMD)
7. i will think you, my dear reader, are understanding this (MMD)

It is by far the most addictive game (well apart from text twist).

Some facts for you:

1. It is on facebook (as an app ovcoss)

It is this cool application on facebook (do allow me use fb). When someone tell you they are on fb and you look at the screen and it has a black background, that is mafia wars. It is very addictive (if u feel u won’t play it coz o dis xteristic, then i’l say it’s not so so

2. It is literally action packed but not ‘really’

I warn you, when you start playing it, do not expect a San Andreas kind of game; it is action but sort of wordy (wordy in a good way, not Blair Witch kind of wordy). You need to think alot. At first, i just played it but 10 stages into the game, i realised that i needed to plan; who to rob, who to attack, which job to do, what armor and ammunition works best, which investment is favourable?

3. You become a mafia (wake up, ur dreamin again!)

You select a name but acquire the tittle of Don, for example, Don Sleek. You live like a mafia and have to think like a mafia, nasty. Remember to keep that attitude on fb, do not extend it to real life. As you advance to higher levels, you can change your name and tittle but only if you are able to reward the god father accordingly.

4. You join or create a mafia family

There are so many ways of doing this; you can send requests to you fb friends or . The larger the family, the more the edge you have when you attack or rob someone.

5. You join a mafia war (ovcoss)
6. You can attack and be attacked (i myt as well add that you can die)

I usually attack people when i have no more energy for jobs. When you attack, your health reduces though it reduces more if you loose the fight. Same thing happens when you are attacked. Good thing is your profile (resume) becomes better – number of fights won.

Do not pick a fight with someone stronger than you, you will be crashed.

7. You can rob and be robbed

Almost has the same fill as an attack, the only difference is that here you are damaging someones property, especially those who have not paid to protect the property.

8. You have work to earn money (ovcoss).

As mentioned earlier, you have to do all sorts of jobs to earn money. Jobs like roughing up dealers, a bank heist, collecting protection money, hijacking, perform a hit, take out a cop yada yada yada…

The more dangerous the job, the more the money.

Each job however requires that you have a certain set of item; the higher the level, the higher the demand.

9. You buy assets to increase you cash flow

Just like in real life, you need to have properties or assets that can increase your monthly cashflow (by monthly i mean every hour). These properties need protecting and maintenance so do not think you just purchase them and that is it, you need to pay for their upkeep. in the later stages of the game, you actually start calculating to see which property does you best.

10. You have energy levels, health levels and stamina levels, needless to say, you can die (not forever though)

When your health is really low, you go to the hospital and pay to restore it.

When you energy levels are done, you ask a family member to send you an energy pack or you visit the god father. you can only get and send one energy pack a day to your family.

11. There is a hit list and you can end up on it (that’s not funny, i have died twice, i mean literally DIED)

Annoy someone and you will appear on the hit list with a bounty on your head. Who ever kills you takes the cash. Be careful when you attack and rob someone, some people are short tempered!

12. You can buy cars, ammunition (not aminition people, ammunition), and armor (vests and all)

Yeah and all that. Some of this stuff also need maintenance fees They however add to your attack and defense levels and if not most, all of them are necessities for jobs.

13. You have a godfather

He has that ‘you scratch my back i scratch your back’ attitude, (we luv u godfather – show me d gifts).

You can go to the god father for anything and everything (well almost) but you have to reward him with reward points. reward points are sometimes collected when you move to a higher level.

14. You have a bank account (u can keep ur mony in d bank or ‘under ur bed’)

It is safe to keep money in the bank because when you are attacked the money is safe; if it is ‘under your bed’, some of it has got to go.

15. I could go on and on and on yada yada yada, bla bla bla…
16. Let me lay it out for you, GO PLAY MAFIA WARS and when you decide to, join my family and i will join yours

I listen to oldies, I honestly do. It is weird but just last months, I didn’t know the girl group Labelle. I had heard some of  their songs but you know…(u kno wen u kno a song but u just kno d song n nothin but d song so help u God)

I was listening to the drive show about a two weeks ago and Alex played a song that I loved on the spot. Not even a minute into the song I was like wow. I did not get the name of the artist and song title; well, the song tittle was obviuos after listening to the chorus (nt lyk Ashanti’s Foolish). I tried to look for the song but the Disc Jockey (hahaha, that kills me, disc jockey) had no clue (fake djs, sorry). (Anywayz) Yesterday, I am minding my own, listening to the drive show and Alex plays the song again and says, (i quote,) “and that was roll out by Labelle…(blahblahblah, nonsense, no sense)”. ‘Ughhh, i do not know that person’ that was my first reaction. ofcourse being the person that i am, i googled it (nt gogoed it) and voila…(u can gess d rest)

Wikipedia says (ryts, wateva, i still quote)

Labelle is an American R&B/soul group, who melded disco with funk and glam rock. The group was led by Patti LaBelle, who later had a solo career. Nona Hendryx and Sarah Dash were the other 2 members. The group was best known for their gospel singing harmonies and the group sang of racism, sexism and eroticism. This female trio is responsible for the proto-disco funk classic “Lady Marmalade,”…

At this point in time I am hoping (i’m actually prayin) you all know ‘Lady Marmalade’ (oh no, u didn’t say no!)

There you go:

(Btw,) The new album is Back To Now. Please do look for it, it is highly recommended (by me ovcos).

If you want to read these lyrics go to Sleek n wild

I think the lyrics are strong and deep, the first time I heard them, I simply took a bow.
It’s was wierd hearing a raggae artist praise Marvin Gaye, not suprising but wierd.

Come to think of it, these days, the good ole people buy a whole album just to listen to one track (this is why we collect tracks… in Uganda, you all know what I’m talking about!).

Music in those days was tyt; proof;

1. My sister collected songs by the album and not tack by track, the way we do it these days,
2. When we have parties at home, oldies rock the party,
3. When they (sisters, mumz n paps) are listening to their collections, they listen to a full album without skipping a track. We, now we cannot listen to full albums, we are always skipping tracks. (FYI, I listen to Tanya’s albums without skippinnnnnn, the rest, helllll noooo)

Believe it or not, we still have record players. Anyone in around (In uganda) who can convert them for me?

These are lyrics from the song Tek Him Bak, by Tanya Stephens. I found them amusing and amazing!

In summary: I took your man and bragged about it. I’m sorry, so please, come take him back. If you say you love him, fight for him; you have to take him back!

Ps.
If you don’t understand the lyrics (the language it’s written in), I can translate it for you; just ask. Otherwise, i’m assuming you all understand Jamaican and patois.

I love making notes while reading, that is why I have note books. Well I don’t really like making notes but I do so because I love monitoring my handwriting, formats, space usage…

While reading Tribes by Seth Godin, these are the notes I made:

This is the first style I used. When I am going through these notes, I reaallllyyy take my time.

Compare the first style with this style. When I am going through these notes, i just peruse through… Up to today, I still use this style. You should try it out, extremely efficient!

LOOK AT WHAT I FOUND:

I found this fabric in my note book. I cut it out of my sister’s fabric; hope she’s not reading this!

This reads, ‘there are times i can’t even figure my self out!’  I must have been reading about some historical figure or musician or something…

This is a basic explanation of Guidespot got from their facebook page:

What is a Guide?
Think of a guide as your own visual list and multi-media story. Now think of Guidespot as an online platform where this creative knowledge-sharing converge and form communities around your interests.

Building a guide offers you the opportunity to combine text, links, photos, videos, addresses and maps all in one place without having to use the techy stuff to get it done. Organize the layout of your guide by dragging and dropping the contents to your desired locations.

In my own words, it is ‘a guide to help you get answers faster!’

Honestly, I used to read blogs, ALOT, but now I just go to Guidespot.
The change was smooth for me because many of the bloggers that I’m interested in are on Guidespot, so reading their guides is like reading summarised blogs with many contributors. This makes everything more interesting and in most cases hilarious!

What are you waiting for?

Go have fun, go start your on guide… Love the simplicity

I know one thing for sure, I’m never helping to her again because it just isn’t worth it…

Oh yes, never mix your social life and business life; all you will get is a cocktail called disaster and one of you becomes a cocktail of your own, the “bloody Mary”…
