Kim Didn't Want To Be Married Anymore: Thank God We Have Divorce!

Folks, I am all for divorce when necessary. There are people who CLEARLY should not be married and can end up doing more harm than good to each other when they stay together.

So, with my "open minded" view on divorce, I decided to watch this season of "Kourtney and Kim Take New York" (KAKTNY) to find out what happened between Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries.

I tuned in every Sunday to watch the show so I could see what "irreconcilable differences" led to the end of their 72 day marriage.

Readers, I have only been left more confused.

On The Nigerian Fuel Subsidy. I Will Not Gloat.

After years of REALLY disliking Nigeria (I don't like to use the word hate), this fuel subsidy issue has managed to do what no amount of insults, threats, cajoling, or arguing could have accomplished when it comes to my feelings about that place.

I am actually experiencing pity.

I have never felt sorry for Nigerians, even when I lived there. Really. I have been annoyed, irritated, flabbergasted, disgusted, laughed at things, but pity has never been part of the gamut of feelings till now.

Impending Apocalypse Or Not, I Look Forward To 2012

Once again another year draws to a close. I blogged a lot less this year than last year, I just realized this looking at my archives. Only one post in November?! *hides head in shame*.

Thanks to everyone who read and commented here. Although, due to a mishap in June, I lost almost all my comments from August 2009 to June 2011, I am glad that you all visited and shared your thoughts over the year.

I hope 2012 is a good year for everyone and starts off great! I have things to look forward to, and I know a lot of you do as well.

There are a few things I want to accomplish in 2012, mostly with my career and education. I guess you could say that my New Year's resolution is "Be Better". I know I can always put "more" into everything I do so I plan to do that next year. "Everything" includes blogging, and getting my little project up and running.

Thank you for a great 2011! See you in 2012!
