The Jump Off!

I've had a huge desire to start a blog for a while now...and here I am finally! My own little piece of the web!! I'm excited, and I hope the good Lord gives me the strength to sustain this.

So a lil' about me....weeeelllllll, this is going to take long...maybe not the writing but perhaps the thinking...So who am I? Here goes....

My name is Chimdi Rosemary Bridget Okolo (it is worthy of note to say I hate "Rosemary" mainly because Nigerians suck at pronouncing it...hehe) anyway, that's me name wise. I was born in Lagos, Nigeria and raised in Brazil, Tanzania and Nigeria. I went to so many schools I cannot remember, but I know it started with my daycare Ursino Felix Brasilia and the last three being Laureate International school Tanzania, Regina Pacis Girls' College Abuja and Madonna University Okija.

So about me.... Initially I would have told you that I'm a person who likes to keep to myself and no matter who you are, if you annoy me I will open my big mouth and give you a piece of my mind...but I've been doing a lot of self-adjustment recently and I can say now that I am a demure and agreeable person, I love to laugh, thus that's the way to my heart. I'm not a party animal (but I can drop some bad ass moves), generally I like a good discussion/other activities with agreeable people who love to give and take. I dislike people who do not understand the word "compromise" and people who hear but do NOT listen and I no longer waste my breath on people who do not deserve it....yep!

I am also very excitable…lol. When I like something or someone I tend to grab on with both hands and I don’t let go. So expect a lot of rants on things going on in my world, sometimes it will be coded rants *wink wink* and some days, I’ll be throwing caution to the air and just doing me…

Most importantly though, I have an unhealthy obsession for retro/vintage clothes and I'm also unapologetically addicted to anything that smells of strawberry, especially soap, body washes and body sprays.

So this is basically going to be a crazzzyyy ride… hold on tight!
