So she asked me some questions, and I answered thus- (in between, answering the questions were so much fun. Brought the first real smile ‘pon my face in about a week or so):

1. When did you start blogging?
Ans: 13th of March, 2012.

2. If you could choose a superpower, which would it be and why?
Ans: Seeing through people’s minds so there’ll be no bullshit or lies.

3. What’s your favourite song and why?
Ans: Favourite song? Whoa, that’s huge. Too many favourites. I’ll rather choose a favourite genre- blues. But if you insist on song, for now, I’ll say ‘stay with me’ by Sam Smith. Why? I don’t know mhan. But the guy is awesome, and the song speaks for me sorta.

4. What’s your favourite book?
Ans: Book? For now, fifty shades of grey. Absolutely!

5. What is your favourite movie?
Ans: Errm… Lemme say, for coloured girls? It’s one of my best.

6. If you could time travel, which era would you travel to?
Ans: Errm era? I don’t know mhan… Lemme do year. 2013. Awesome year!

7. Who’s your favourite singer?
Ans: Ah. That’ll be Asa. One of the many.

8. What’s your favourite thing to cook?
Ans: Cook. Errm… Egusi soup. I cook it at the back of mind almost everytime.

9. If you could tell your president anything, what would you tell him/her?
Ans: President Ebele? I’ll say ‘Dear President, I know uneasy lies the head that wears the crown, and truly you may be putting in all so much effort that we the masses fail to see, but you have to understand us too. We are not saying you put the problems we are facing as a country today there, we are only saying they are there now, and the best you can do to justify yourself is strive to minimise the mishaps that turn up during your tenure. Pray, consult, work, dare, just do what you must and alleviate our troubles! Only then can we truly believe in you!’

10. If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
Ans: How people treat love. I’d rather it remained sacred as it used to be, so that we stop doubting our hearts when someone we feel it for says he/she feels same way.

11. What’s your dream job/career?
Ans: Being a mind- blowing artist, blogger and writer.

Thank you.
