Quick Life Update : The Abusive Relationship I Am In

I trusted him completely but he broke my heart and still is in the business of breaking it. His promise to always be with me Everywhere I Go was alas a lie. He said that only to catch my attention and make me his. He gave me mouth-watering packages that offered me less for more but it turned out to be a façade. I'm tired and frustrated. I can't carry out my normal routine with all he's been doing. I trusted him just this once and he disappointed me. I never should have promoted him from the zone I placed him in initially. I remember all the times I heard people complain about theirs and I was always relieved I wasn't in their shoes but guess where I am now? I guess that's what life does. Sit in a corner and laugh at you. Nice job.
He looks so attractive on the outside but deep down, there's nothing exciting about  him. A big fat façade. I miss the things I could have been doing if I hadn't made the mistake of trusting him too much. His favourite colour is Yellow. Funny how it has conflicting attributes; representing Hope, Happiness and Loyalty and also Cowardice,  Deceit and Betrayal. If only I had realised this earlier on...


Okayyy Guys, it's not a. 'HE' but an 'IT' ! I'm in an Abusive Relationship with my Service Provider; the great MTN! They're doing me baaaaaad. Like you don't want to know the amount of energy I put into not getting frustrated these days. I've always placed the MTN network in the calling and texting zone till I decided to upgrade them just this once and they're doing me dirty. I mentioned earlier on that their network here is attractive on the outside and has nothing exciting on the inside. It's for real. The signal would be really full, showing 3G and I can't even use my browser! Such falseness. Publishing my Previous Post last week was a lot of  hassle and I didn't even bother publishing the other I planned to.
I was telling a friend that I wouldn't be as pissed if I didn't have a blog to tend to and those days when my phone was practically useless made me realise how much I love the Blogosphere and the strength in it that I sometimes draw from. I felt like I was away for weeks. Even though I get to think more creatively, WALK DELIBERATELY , admire my Fingernails , I miss reading posts from my favourite blogs, promoting my posts and many more. I'm just trying to tweak it and find what works best.
 But then, it's life and there are 2 sides to every coin. With MTN, I get to browse in my room and even though it takes minutes for pages to load and hours for messages to deliver, I'd probably still stick with the other service provider I'm used to that's completely absent in my room but really fast in school where I am most of the time. So, one for school and the other for my room! Moral Lesson? There's always a blessing in every disappointment.

I've got two tests this week; one today and the other tomorrow, say a quick word of prayer for me? Thanks!
So what about you?
      What's your biggest network hustle?
      Am I the only one MTN is doing bad or there's another witness?
     What do you miss most when your network fails?
     What do you do in such times?
I'd love to hear from youu! Kindly share me your thoughts.
 It's November tomorrow. Very interesting. Hope you had a great October. How did it go? Have a pleasant week. xxx

P. S : Nothing personal against MTN really. It's just their network which I know is relatively good in other places.

  1. Remember is song by Michael Jackson, You are not alone, I am here (there) with you. I have stopped using your service provider for my internet subscription over 4years ago.

    I was wondering who this bad boy was!
    It's not just you darling, I have used every network but MTN so I dunno how their signal is but where I am right now has terrible coverage for every network!
    My WiFi is supposed to be 4G and everyday remains a battle whether I'm trying to use the 'gram or blog work -- can't wait to be out of here in a couple of weeks!
    (Oh and,a happy new month in advance. God's been super faithful!)

  3. Hahahaha!! Immediately I started reading this post I knew you were referring to a service provider but I thought it was the green guys.lol! I understand the struggle hun. Its so annoying. Mtn used to be so good but I guess something went wrong. I use airtel now though and its been a jolly ride since. Success in your tests and a happy new month to you.

  4. Lol girl you got me, here I was wondering who the guys was. Now when it comes to the network hustle, well it took me a lot of time and trials with all the networks to figure out which network works best in the different areas. Hence as you can imagine I have sim cards with all networks. However MTN is pretty stable in my area but Etisalat is faster, only thing is that it's more expensive. Now glo was too unfaithful so I'll probably throw the sim away. Now when my network is stressing me, I put my phone on airplane mode and most times it refreshes the network. May God give you wisdom in your various tests. Happy New month. Princess Audu

  5. It;s annoying when your network is horrible, especially as a blogger. I haven't used MTN for browsing though. I use glo and it's not so bad and very affordable.

  11. At first I thought it was some guy. But really MTN just went from good to crappy, and I think it's since the launch of the LTE that I started having issues with our romantic relationship. I would have loved to get in bed with Etisalat, but the cost of maintaining her is outrageous. Cheers

  18. Lol, girl you just killed me with laughter. I actually thought you were referring to a guy.
    Mtn is the shitest network, no offence to all the mtn users out there but as someone that have tried a lot of service providers. Mtn is my least favorite. I don't even want to get started on all the struggles.
    I prefer Etisalat and Airtel, they are not perfect but they work for me.
    All the best in your exams dear.

  22. Oh my! I was wondering who this guy was until I saw empty-hen! You are so funny, I feel the title of the post though. Well, I have never really been a fan of the network but find that the area you are may be the reason why it works poorly. My GLO network is great in some areas for instance but might take 30 minutes to load a simple page in others.

    Please do not be heartbroken. Feel free to find another bobo.

Wedding Day Thrills : 6 Things I Look Forward to & 3 That I Don't!

Hey guys, I've not posted in a while. Isn't it nice how that screams consistency? Lol jokes. I promise to do better. I was watching TV the other day and came across this 'It's my wedding' program that showcases all the activities couples go through in prep for their wedding day. I remember being insanely attracted to all the Ovation magazines with wedding pictures when I was way younger.  I was constantly devouring the pictures and you'd think I'd grow up to become a bridal consultant or something close. Life oh Life. My mantra has always been 'I'm looking forward to my wedding day and not exactly to marriage' but who am I deceiving? Lol. I think every girl has their wedding fantasy kept somewhere close for easy editing and all so I thought to share some of the reasons I'm looking forward to getting wedded. •  Pre-wedding shoot : Some years back, this wouldn't have been on the list but with all these beautiful and also hilariou

Life Update: 2018 Birthday Post

I was unsure about the idea of writing a birthday post this year because it's not very timely till I checked the posts of the last 2 years - 2016  and 2017 - and I realized they both went up on the 17th of March, 3 days after my birthday so why not continue the trend? Unlike the previous years, this was quite uneventful as I was in transit for some time, traveling to school to get stuff submitted and then rounding everything off pretty late so that I was unable to travel back home that same day. I had no extra clothing or toiletries so that was annoying but I pulled through nevertheless. I have a ritual of getting myself something but so far, I've not really seen what I'm interested in. A God sent person got me a book I've been looking to get my hands on for quite some time now and I was too happyyy! I'm definitely going to update this post with pictures of it later on. I'm really excited and looking forward to all what God has in store for me thi
