College Road Trip: HOT or NOT

I love Raven Symone and I think she is a good actress. When I heard she had a mainstream movie coming out, I was excited for her and that she has finally gotten a chance to show the world what she's made off.

I have not watched the movie but I saw the preview and I kind of liked it but i've been reading a number of articles and movie reviews and a number of them have not been good. So I want you reading this article to drop your opinion on College Road Trip Starring Raven Symone and Martin Lawrence.

Mighty Mighty Good


For the past three months, I have been listening to Out of Eden's farewell single 'Mighty Mighty Good'. The song is their last recorded song from their final album 'The Hits' which they released in the summer of 2006. The song of course was written by LISA KIMMEY-WINANS. Anyways, the thing is, listening to the lyrics of the song is simply amazing. I have been going through some issues for the past month but when I listen to the song, there is something about the lyrics, it's like they come alive in my spirit and I am feeling what they are feeling and experiencing the joy they are experiencing. Maybe that's why I have always loved Out of Eden. I recommend this album for everybody. I'll try and put the video here before the end of the week. Remember when you look back at your life, you'll realize that God has been Mighty Mighty Good to you!

The Wonderful Life of Us



I was watching an episode of Disney’s Hit TV Series That’s So Raven called ‘Members only’ and I came to realize that I and two of my close female friends are more like Raven, Eddie and Chelsea. I know it sounds weird and all and psychotic to some people but the truth is the episode opened my eyes to many things. I realized I had friends who I am myself with and whom I almost consider as family.

Bunmi and Glory are a part of the few female friends I have in Covenant University that I am close to. Apart from being YWAP members, we are also classmates and seatmates. We have our own seat in class and funny thing is no one seats there because everyone knows that is where we sit. We practically do stuff together; read books, go to the cafeteria together, hangout whenever we have the time to, crash parties together (not major parties though), gossip together (in a very holy fashion I should add), sit together in chapel services and special events alongside other YWAP members, basically we just have fun and enjoy our company. We also get into trouble together sometimes or we put one of us in trouble. We tell ourselves the truth and we can’t stay mad at ourselves for long. We are always there for one another and we 'diss' ourselves well.

In this particular episode of ‘That’s So Raven’, Raven and Chelsea convince Eddie to join the Sigma Brothers who happen to be the most popular guys in their school. Watching Raven, Eddie and Chelsea made me realize that friends like these are hard to find anywhere. These girls (Bunmi and Glory) and I share memorable experiences with both students and lecturers. I can easily give us our roles;

Bunmi Obanawu (Raven Baxter): Bunmi like Raven is very determined and when she puts her mind to something, she likes to follow it through. She is free-spirited and could be a nagging pain sometimes but also loves to have fun the best way she knows how. So like Raven.

Glory Onyema (Chelsea Daniels): Glory like Chelsea is light skinned with long hair. I have to add that. She is very optimistic and has a large heart. She loves to see the fun side of everything and makes you laugh by just watching her talk

And I, Harry Itie (Eddie Thomas): I’m like Eddie. I love my girls more than they know. They can be a pain and get on my nerves at times. They can embarrass me at times too but I can’t imagine a day in school without them. I enjoy their company and talk some sense into them once in a while.

In the end I realize now that I have friends money cannot buy and I won’t let them slip away. All the memories we share, I am so keeping to the end. These friends are so forever.

I Know...And I Am Sorry

Hey Y'all,

it has been long...I know. I have not updated this blog for the longest time. I feel really bad about it, trust me. It's just that I have been very busy with school work to even update this blog. The thing is during my hiatus, I learnt a couple of things I would love to share.

First, I learnt that family and friends are the best thing that could happen to anyone. They are the most important treasures anyone in the world can and should have.

Also, I came to the understanding that God intends us to have the heart of a child. I just read Ted Dekker's Blessed Child and came to the realization that I have to live each day of my life with love for my fellow man and I mean genuine love.

I hope to post more articles this month. i'll try my best to...

Peace...
