The thing about being on a reality TV show is that you allow the general public into your personal life. The thing about being on not only a reality show, but a reality show where you are being recorded twenty four seven and being watched by millions and millions of people, a show like Big Brother Nigeria, is that every single sentence anybody in the house says, we on the outside can follow it up and follow it up TIMES 10.

Red Pineapple, Blue Mango
Right now, the second worst person you can be in this city is me. Mama always tells me you make your own luck in life. You work hard, make the right choices, and stick to ‘em.

Of course you’ll ask that friend to change that name to something more marketable, more unique, less generic.

Storytime: The Day We Realized Our Housegirl Was Mami Water.
This all happened when I was around 11/12 years old. My mother had just given birth to my little sister Anointing. She didn’t have the same energy to deal with all the stress of a new baby the way she did with me and even though Anointing was a rather quiet and peaceful child, my mother was still struggling so she needed help.
