I wish I could just stay where I am right now. 400 a month, I ain’t complaining lol.
I want a new place to live in Brooklyn.
Shared apartment, preferably.
For at most 450 a month.
And no y’all, I’m not picky. I already stay in the hood lol.

thestylechateau-deactivated2012: Sorry but I just have to add my own 2 cents. Bia that anon that's talking about seeking "white" men and all what if "white" men seek you ehn then what? I didn't know people still referred to other people by mere colors when spurting hate and ignorant stupidity. Please oh color is just skin deep and race is a social construct. The faster everyone starts referring to "interracial" relationships as just relationships the better. Culturally rich kids exist. TEACH YO KID OUR CULTURE. ITS THAT EASY.
Anonymous: personally i feel like love and peace of mind precedes preserving African aesthetics, or any other aesthetics, what if the person you are destined to be with, who will bring happiness and joy (blah blah) to your life is someone from another ethnicity...but because of trying to preserve something that should not take precedence over caring for another human being you miss your chance at having the best for your life. i'm proud of africa o! but not the kind of pride that veils my eyesight.
PERFECT ^^^^^

kiss-my-neon: While this topic is still fresh you seem to get a lot of questions and comments, some unfortunately of the daft variety, on race and dating white men ( even though as far as I can tell you have dated just one, but to some people that means you date them all). You usually respond so well with sarcasm and humor which I love but has anyone said something in your blog or in person that got to you bad and affected how you felt about how race has been a factor in your relationship? Aikenosi
Thanks love, but no. People have said some messed up, hurtful stuff to me in the past, but all these anons never brought up any beneficial points and only shared their ignorance and hate. And most importantly, it didn’t affect my relationship
kiss-my-neon: Now I know it is for people like THAT anon that the word olodo was invented. This person clearly doesn't have two brain cells to rub together. Isn't the purpose of writing to clarify your thoughts eliminating verbal diarrhea in the process? Seriously this person actually posted 'seek out white men'. Ode of the highest order.
Lmaoooo! I can’t with you! Some people are honestly so foolish, let’s not even question them!
bindymac: Your responses to everyone's questions (rude and not) give me so much life!
Hahaha yayyy! Thanks love!
Anonymous: how do you deal with people mispronouncing your name? I'm Nigerian too, and I find that people have so much trouble saying my name... It can be so embarassing :(
I don’t deal. It shouldn’t be embarrassing to you. If it’s somebody that I interact with more often than none, I stand there until they get my name right or that I see that they are making enough of an effort to get it right. If it’s with a stranger who I won’t see again, I don’t care because I probably won’t even remember their names lol.
Anonymous: Yagazie!! that anonymous that asked you why u "seek" white men deserves a slap!!! i'm sure you mentioned in your other blog a story about your first love who so happened to be a black boy!! either way this anon needed to do her research before being a moron!!
My dear, thanks oo! It really doesn’t matter. I’ll leave them to their own thoughts and devices lol.
Anonymous: Who are all these anons that make such rubbish comments? Is it their business who you choose to date? Kini big deal tho? Ndi ara. Do your thing! Ify
Lmao!! Ifffyyyy!!! Thanks oo!!
Anonymous: You talk a lot about preserving the "African Aesthetic", but yet you seem to only date white men. Care to explain this? Is it coincidental, or do you intentionally seek out Caucasian men?
Well, aren’t you an ignorant one. I ‘seem’ to date only white men? I’m sure you’ve been prancing around with me my whole life through as I date people. How ever did I miss noticing you? Were you hiding behind the door? Under my bed? You’re a sneaky bastard, you!
How dare you accuse me of being a race traitor?! Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow!! *slaps you with a white glove*
Look at your head. ‘Care to explain’. Onye ara.
Lol, I can’t take this seriously.
