Puppy Love...True Love...No Love?!

In light of many of my comrades,soldiers,dawgs (call them what you want!) friends really,falling by the wayside courtesy of this thing they call 'Love'! That and finally getting tired of having to deal with calls at odd hours of the night (why do people have these seemingly uncontrollable urges to deal with relationship stuff after 2.am? Cant they wait? For another 5 maybe 6 hours?!) I have decided to shed some light,as dim as it might be (ain't everyone's when it comes to love!) and share my 2 cents as it is on the matter.

First love is not a matatu that you get into once you have sighted a 'nganya'! From what I get..it takes time,for the involved parties to get to know each other,get comfortable with each other. Thus this hoola baloo of 'love at first sight' does not hold! 'Lust at first sight' maybe,actually most probably!

This is where my comrades go wrong..they spot a ka'yeiya' (lady) then BOOM..'buda jo niko in love' then a few weeks,dates,down the line 'what the hell was I thinking?'
If my memory and observations serve me right,the best relationships I've seen started with the two individuals not being able to stand each other! Then they warmed up to each other blah blah blah..a million light years later...they are still together!
In short am saying..slow down holmes! Take your time,maisha refu!

So after the ka lecture here are some tell tell signs on where you are headed! i.e these are real signs that have presented themselves in some of the comrades.

1. When you think that she doesn't take a shit,and if she does it's like solid sprite,sweet....
Thats puppy love.
2. When you know that she takes a dump,
and you even make fun of it ooh what a lump...
Now thats love.
3. When you call her to say that you miss her,
5 minutes after you've been together....
My brother thats puppy love...
4. When you miss her but you are too big headed to tell her,
thats not love. (or is it?)
You are just a coward!
5. When 'because of her' you can't sleep let alone eat!
Get a life before ujipate umebeat...
Thats puppy love.
6. When you eat like its your last day,
sleep like its the only way...
Yet you still spare a thot before you lay,
Now thats love...
7. If you say things like 'for her I'll jump infront of a train,
Or that you can take a bullet to the brain...
You are lost in puppy love.
8. But if you know she's smart enough not be suicidal,
and if she would,you'd go laugh in her face at the hospital..
Now thats love! (and very smart if I may add!)
9. If you sing along to every song,thinking of her,you are either 2 years old or yes you in puppy love...
10. If you hear a song,that song..then everything grinds to a halt,
switch off the t.v bro you are watching too many movies its just that....(she probably doesn't even know you,right?!)
11. When you just want to be around her,hata bila story,
Get yourself some friends,sorry...
I dont know what that is.

I hope that the next time these symptomps are present either in you or a comrade,you will rush here and get the prescription!
As a parting shot...To me Love is non existant...what we have is just for convinience!

The Start!!

So..FINALLY..here it is! After toying around with the idea,and a few nudges from here and there I've finally decided to write!
'What is a blog?' that's what I've been hit with most of the time I try to tell a friend that am planning to write a blog..First let me appologise for thinking that we are in the 21st century (internet literacy and all!),I've come to appreciate the fact that our knowledge of the internet ends at facebook and or twitter,google for a few and a porn site for most of us.
This is a blog! Yes.. On a serious note..According to Wikipedia (You know what that is right? If you dont just stop reading after closing bracket and close this tab!) :


"A blog (a blend of the term web log) is a type of website or part of a website. Blogs are usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video.
Most blogs are interactive, allowing visitors to leave comments and even message each other via widgets on the blogs and it is this interactivity that distinguishes them from other static websites.
Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability of readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (art blog), photographs (photo blog) videos (video blogging), music (mp3 blog), and audio (podcasting). Microblogging is another type of blogging, featuring very short posts."

That's basically it,you sit there and read what I have to write on various topics then you comment,I reply (maybe) then we have fun!
Let's get one thing clear though..THIS IS NOT AN ONLINE DIARY! Dont expect me to write on hoe my day was,who I was with and how it went (maybe once in a while!)
Expect pieces (posts) on Music,Entertainment,Soccer (Arsenal mostly),Rugby,Politics (a line or two at most) and everything under the sun during the day and the moon at night!
I'll try to post on a weekly basis,this hugely depends on my donors (a big thank you to Him hehehe) and whether i get 'inspired' among other factors.
So as to accomodate my international audience,I'll try post in pure english but bare with me as some of these emotions are best brought out in swahili..if and when this happens I'll try and translate to the best of my ability!
Dont hold back on your comments..fungua roho (that's just another way of saying feel free).

As we go on I might invite some guest writters,who in my opinion are worth you time (Like I am). So with the ground rules in place...Lets have fun!
