I can't get you out of my head!!!


Maybe I want you,
Maybe I don’t.
If there’s something about you,
To make me want you,
Maybe I might just really want you.

Trying to think it through,
But when I can’t get you out of my head,
I know I have reached the end!
There’s no maybe,
There’s just my reason  for wanting you.




They say once you know what you want in life,then you got your life all figured out.Mmmhh…whoever came up with such a line probably wasn’t thinking clearly or…they didn’t take time to factor in people like me who sometimes never know what they want. When it comes down to the little things in life, its easy to know what I  want…then along comes the heavy- duty stuff which never leaves me in peace when it comes to making a decision.

You might probably be thinking that I am such a confused wreck if I have no idea of what I want, cause   honestly I would think that way if I met someone  who had no sense to know what they wanted even in the simplest of things( to be very honest I would be  irritated!!) But before I explain myself,  you have to at least  know the real reason why I am writing this. It all started with a simple conversation that led to the hardest question  I had to face the whole of this week “WHAT DO YOU WANT?”

In my defense, I  came up with this reason of why knowing what you want doesn’t necessarily mean  having it all figured out:” The things we want in life  always have a two-side story to them,that is they either  make a lasting impression on our lives or they( i.e the things we want) quickly fade away. Not knowing what I want immediately , is just my way of taking caution  so that I don’t land myself in any situation that  leads me to more uncertainity…maybe it’s a coward act, but  I learn more from it than  always knowing what I want. I think  through what I want before I make it official that I really do want it.”
If what I want makes a lasting impression on me such that I can’t get it out of my head,then I definitely know what I want!!

The Man That Made Me Believe In Impossibilities

How do I write about a man whose loud presence can’t be ignored? How do I begin to describe a man whose life should be written down in volumes of books, a man whose battles and achievements could literally make you wonder why you have never tried out that daredevil in you? A man whose blind faith and roaring spirit will leave you believing that anything is possible, as long as you just do it! I have never written down anything much about my father, mostly because words won’t do him justice and because you need to experience him to actually know who he is. He is tough, he is loud, he is sharp and witty, he never gives up and he is simply my papa. I know I will never get it right when it comes to the adjectives that could describe papa, mostly because he is more than words. He’s the man who’s taught me to live in the moment, because we can’t really trust the future. A man who’s taught me to be witty, because sometimes you have to outdo the book smarts to survive. A man who’s ta...

Start Acting, Stop Typing

June, how I've waited for you! 23 days down with  30 minutes to spew out my thoughts to the world. Here we go... I never like to talk about my life in here, instead I only add the bits I feel would implicate me less in this era of  'hey guys, welcome to my channel'. As much as I want to keep things mysterious to spice up my online persona, I feel like a lot can go wrong with an audience that hides behind screens. I would rather take my chances on being as evasive as possible. Yes, I'm admitting  to my cowardice.  However, I will defend my stance by saying that whatever thoughts I type in here, are rarely inspired by my own life. Rather, they have everything to do with how I perceive the world (people/places/things/ANYTHING)  around me. That's the inspiration. What I hide  is under lock and key in  a mind vault labelled "PRIVATE, for Yvette's crazy thoughts only". The world around me and how I would like to change it through the words I share is wh...

Big Girls Don't Cry

Nothing kills me more softly than saying goodbye. There's  nothing good in goodbye, and there never will be. It's my humble request to revise this English word. It's easy to say goodbye but the feeling that comes with it is a like a slow blow to the heart. I may  be exaggerating the description, but truth be told, saying goodbye is hard for me. Case in point, 8 years ago, I began a tradition that I thought would make this heart of mine  tough enough to withstand the pains of goodbye. I could never stand the thought of saying goodbye to my sister at the airport. I was always the one person left behind at home while everyone else escorted her. The sight  of seeing her climb up the boarding stairs made the goodbye more real!! She was leaving me!!! In retrospect, my actions didn't  make sense because I still said my  goodbye at home. Lucky for me, no one bothered with my decision to stay. BooHoo!! I'm all grown up now and I wish I  had been there ti...
