I actually sent that last post to my new found love and she decided to tell me her own version of "the" love story.
If & when we make it to the altar,I promise we would have the love story for the ages..Even the best hollywood love story writers couldn't come up with this story if they tried their hardest..When they say,God will never expose you to what He won't give you,they aint never lied..When there's nothing else to hold on to,& you hold on to God,He upholds you with a kind of unimaginable strength..He surprises you & delivers the unexpected..Because I wasn't looking for love by no stretch of the imagination..I had gone through a really rough March,so I had vowed to just have fun the rest of the year..No looking for love or pining for it,just chilling & enjoying my youth (whatever that means),& most importantly..NO REGRETS..As a sharp babe from the www./social networking era,I turned to none other than twitter,coz as we all know facebook is dead (its for the goons-but am still on facebook though)..The plan I had for twitter was to make new friends & flirt a lot ofcourse..I had been on twitter for a while,but I wasn't too into it,I remember that as at February I was at 25 tweets,in the three months I had been on it,& my personal person (O***) was yanking my chain for it back too..Now am a pro at it (even though twitter needs to return my tweets sharpishly..Tryna kill my talent)..So anyways I became active on twitter at the end of March/beginning of April I really got to tweeting,& I would always come across this dude @SheriphSkills on my TL (mostly from RT's by Bambam-crazy cool chick by the way),& I thought he was mad funny,so I would always look out for his tweets (but for some weird reason,I didn't follow him),so anyways randomly out the blue my personal person recommended a bunch of people for me to follow,& what do you know,Mr tweet a lot was one of them (I promise God was smiling at this-heavenly match maker toh bad),so I finally followed him sha,& he didn't even waste time following me back,as per woman wrapper toh bad (Sorry ladies,he's taken now)..
So now I didn't have to wait for RT's no more,I got exposed to the full dose of him,& he certainly didn't disappoint..He was/is as funny as I thought he was..So anyways,I started to develop a crush on him (anybody that REALLY knows me,knows that I am miss crush a lot),so I told my bestie R**** that I had a crush on him,but I wasn't gonna say/do nothing bout it,because in my experience,I am usually always disappointed when I get to know my crush *Sigh*..Meanwhile,I would mention him in tweets & RT his tweets,& dude completely ignored me,major bruising of my ego (He claims he never got them-yea right buddy,tell that to the birds)..And then I remember telling R**** I don't even like the dude no more sef (bruised ego talking),but even that was a lie..I honestly don't know at what point he "decided" to start responding (My God is a good God -Yes He is)..So anyways I remember R**** & K***** & I had made plans to skype & read a love letter (long story) someone wrote for me & he decided he wanted to skype with us..So we had a conference call on skype (With my girlies & him),somewhere along the line we started sending each other messages that night & he gave me his BB pin & we started getting to know each other,& somewhere along the line I told him I had a crush on him (come & see his head swell o),but that usually when I act on my crushes 9 out of 10 (him being the exception) am always disappointed..I think last friday night,I said something to the effect that I was giving him my heart(I was so seriously kidding-people can't tell the difference when am serious or kidding *Sigh*),but he said he didn't want it,& I formed being hurt (now he knows this part of the story too *Sigh*),but the more he begged & apologized the more I realized he was actually really into me,& the more me sef I was doing unnecessary ako (I wanna front die),I promise he begged for over 5 hours (& to think I was kidding & his apology was accepted on the first try-I am hella dramatic sha)..
But he is the most amazing person I've ever been with,he gets me..He makes loving him so easy,He's so much like me its crazy,yet he's so different from me..He tolerates my tantrums,he apologizes even when he shouldn't,but he does anyways just to make me happy..He makes me feel so special,he tells me how pretty I look even when am looking like crap,he makes me feel like everything is gonna be ok..We can talk about anything & everything,I am so open with him its ridiculous..He just makes sense..He's given me so much love in such a short time than I have experienced with anybody else over years..It might be hard for anybody else to grasp or understand,but we don't care..We know what/how we feel bout each other..I am so in love with this man..December 2012 Save the date!!

Found love
People find love in different places, some @ work, in school, church and any other places you can thick of. I found love in the oddest place; cyber space, here is my story.
So I met this girl on twitter whose her handle is @********* a few weeks ago, started following her when she claimed she tweeted @ me and I never responded + she was a friend of a friend. This friend of mine is a weyrey sumborri and any friend of hers is a friend of mine. Anyways I followed her and that's how we became friends on twitter.
She mentioned me in a lot of her tweets but I deemed them Retweet unworthy, I have too many followers so I didn't know she took this act of mine personal. She complained to me, I apologised and promised not to do so again. I made it my duty to reply all tweets coming from her whether directed @ me or someone else.
I met 2 of her other buddies @************ and @****** who snitched on her that she has a crush on me.....I thot it was pure jokes @ 1st *as in who in their right mind will have a crush on a madman like skills* till I was invited to a skype conference by her and her buddies.
The skype conference went well, I was shy @ 1st but the ice was broken when she read a 5page love letter written to her by her stalker/secret admirer in church which I found sweet and at the same time hilarious. We sidelined the rest of the conference afterwards and had a video call. When I saw her *to be honest* I wasn't really tripped *no hard feelings* but when she smiled..she won me over.
She used scope to toast me sha and rubbed powder and lip gloss + I suspect her babalawo advised her to wear multicoloured pieces of clothing so that the jazz efficacy can be magnified. She put on a yellow scarf, green tOp, pink boob tube and blue pants. She looked all colorful, I was almost tempted to call her a clown.
We hit it off straight away and I fell in love with her even tho I had my reservations as I promised myself never to fall in love again considering what happened in my last relationship...I was scared of being hurt but with her I kinda fell safe cos she just felt right. Couldn't skype with her the following night which was on thursday as it was BYOB..a tradition I never miss whenever I'm in the FCT.
Chatted with her on BB whenever I had the chance...I think I called her too sef. We had series of BB chat sessions and got to know each other better...she tried to get me to skype on friday night but the boys spirited me away for another night of grooving.
Apparently I promised her I wasn't gonna go out but skype with her all night which I actually don't remember...I prolly said that under the influence >=).
She offered me her heart on friday night while I was @ the club but joked that I wasn't interested, she took it personal o. She made me beg all through the night while my friends were having fun...this got my friends angry as they saw a whole SKILLS "Ashawo kan, Groovazoid kan" dulling in the club.
My friends seized my phone a couple of times, busted me in the bathroom once and spilled champagne all over me @ some point...my apology was eventually accepted after 5hrs of begging...choi, this girl can form o, to think she was the one who practically had a crush on me and asked me out...kai I don suffer.
The next day I went bowling and we skyped some more...my love for her grew even tho deep down I felt stupid for falling for someone I barely know.
In betweens are kinda blurry but I remember her getting pissed @ me for promising to call her but not...had to get her friends to plead my case which is unlike me, typical skills: "ontothenextone" but I'm already spellbound with her charms *sigh*. I now know better not to promise her anything I know I can't achieve.
I know I love her cos I've introduced her to my BIG sister who I tell almost everything and they got off on a good note...I dey even biff their friendship sef. My sister told me and I quote "skills, this girl is meant for u o, hold on to her". She even convinced me to go see her in canada instead of visiting her in august, something I've planned ahead.....problem is getting the cash *God works in mysterious ways* #now keeping my fingers crossed.
The relationship is now a week old and waxing stronger by the day....telling her I love is so easy even in the company of my friends. I look forward to the day I'll finally meet her so I can hold, kiss and make love to her the way lovers do.
That's my story ....just put this up out of boredom. Will put up her own story in a bit.

20,5** Twitter updates
So i haven't blogged in eons but i'm here again pondering what to type *sigh* Thinking of blogging about my mild addiction to twitter or how i found love. I think i'll go for the 1st; the latter might stir up controversy so imma play it safe for now.
So i joined twitter reluctantly on the 26th of May, 2008 after getting numerous requests from a whole bunch of friends who were on the fastest growing cyber joint on the planet and my handle then was @skilodatwagbero. I probably tweeted 100 times in the whole of 2008 as i was busy with work and other stuff i can't remember. Facebook was the ish then as i hooked up with lost friends, family members and the likes...twitter looked uber-boring then compared to my dear facebook
2009, my activities on twitter increased after i was introduced to #tweetdeck by @nuelzgatgame the #rocaholic....that app immediately changed my attitude towards twitter as i could RT and follow all the stars i wanted with or without their consent. In a nutshell, i got a hang of twitter from there onwards. I think my tweet ratio increased to about 20/day.....i wasn't an addict then as i still had facebook to contend with.
Enter 2010, I got me a BB after enough convincing from a couple of friends and that was when my addiction to twitter began…..i downloaded the ubertwitter app as recommended by fellow twaddicts and kaboom!!! I couldn’t stop, I was hooked. My 6weeks tour of the North Eastern part of Nigeria didn’t help matters as I was bored most of the time but twitter was always there for me as I had something to tweet about at any given time.
I look at my update count and I see 20,530 updates and realized in this year alone I’ve tweeted at least 15,000 times *smh* Well it was worth it as I’ve acquired new twiends, twenemies, twams and all those other things I can’t think of right now. I even convinced some of my friends to join #youknowhoyouare
Twitter, my very own amebo central, never a dull moment.
