Last weekend was suppose to be a Harry Potter Party weekend. But as usual, after talking to my fam friend T, I realized chicago sounded much better. chicago always sounds much better! So I got on the train! 2nd time in a row that I was late for the train... (20mins late last time, 45 mins late this time) and I still made it on the train!!! I'm so blessed cuz that train just waited for me! lol!
Anyway I get to chicago and we go to this awesome club called the Shrine. When I heard that I was going to the 'SHRINE' i was freaked out like 'Jesu Christi' walai! lol Just kidding. Anyway this place is awesome. Its an African fusion club. So diverse, hot music, hot dancers, great ambiance, even greater service. Big ups to the owners! they are doing it the RIGHT way. We had fun! check out http://www.theshrinechicago.com/
And i met this amazing guy. I just was introduced to him randomly in greetings. Boooooy! the guy was Hot! My mouth dropped. My eyes hazed. The sea parted! lol! He was cute, tall, professional, naija, Lagos boy sha! Lol but happily married. Womp Womp! so that's a no go! Of course as a respectable man he wasnt interested either. But he was hella cute! It made me wonder. Are all the hot guys taken early in the game of life? those are rare. Will i find my own hot tall professional naija guy?... Will you?
Next night, we go to a Bday party. We thought it would be so so, but it was awesome. Razztastic towards the end when they started playing Wasiu and Co. I loved it. I havent had that much fun in a looooooong time. I have to say that I've never seen such a graceous host. She was so cordial, smiling, and nice. She didnt even know me and she smiled and thanked me for coming. More naija people need to be like that. She was so nice!!! I jsut added her to Facebook too! People you have to enjoy life! You cant go around brooding in life. Keep it moving people. The Bday Lady turned 41 and she is still enjoying, not entertaining drama, letting her best shine. Was definately an example for me. Not all that shakara we naija women like to do. Be cool people. Enjoyment is cool sha!
Sunday was photoshoot day for my Miss MNIA stuff. However, the photographer that I wanted canceled on me!!!! I really wanted to shoot with him because I heard his work was really good and also because he is Nigerian. Well it didnt work out. Maybe next time. Anyway I made due with amateur pics taken by a homegirl in the W hotel. Wow i have to say that the W hotel was so graceous enough to let me take pics there. They were so nice. The manager was a gentleman. Really nice and cute too. hehehe. So people when you go to chicago, if you can afford, stay at the W hotel!!!!!!! Food there was good too! I had the scallops. Yummy. Check out my http://www.missadelaja.blogspot.com/ site for the pics coming soon.
Anyway I lost my voice in Chicago then got a killer sore throat. Which kain sore throat be this? more like a Stress throat. I missed work for 2 days because I couldnt talk. OMG it hurt so badly. honey didnt work, lemon didnt work, NSAIDs didnt work. thank God I'm much better now! Glory to my Father! Halleluiah.
Anyway i always enjoy chicago. I want to move there. I miss my chicago people too! Shout outs to Gidi Girl Bee, Z, homeboys T, BT, L, D, M, and company!!! lol am i reciting the alphabet? lol
This is the diary of a Gidi Girl or one in the making. I may be a Nigerian girl in America now, but my hopes and dreams take me to Nigeria; Lagos to be specific. I don’t know how or when I’m going to get there, but I will! Follow me on my journey which hopefully should lead me back to Lagos, Nigeria aka Las Gidi. Fasten your seatbelts Ladies and Gentlemen, it may be a bumpy ride!!!!!
