Today's revelations, tomorrow's memories - the massage story

By -
Today, I had a revelation. It's better to have a massage on a Thursday after a tasking working day than on a Sunday after you've chillaxed a bit. I blogged about the first massage I had from Revelations as part of a more encompassing post. and today here's another. But yeah, when I finally go to Angola, I will make sure to get a massage administered by some linda babe. In the meantime, Ima enjoy some in Accra more seriously.

For some reason, I think kizomba is the best music to listen to when getting a massage. So I listened to some of the songs today. Let me share a few with you, go get them (or play them on YouTube) next time.
Magico by Mika Mendes.
Vai dar bum by Ary.
Quadradinha by Yola Araujo.
Te quero bue by Bruna Tatiana.
Coisa doida by Adi Cudz & Yola Araujo.

I've realised one question many masseuses ask is "Are you okay?" After the umpteenth time today, I had to wonder a wonderful response.
While folks were wondering about happy endings, I got a couple of responses with one of my buddies saying "No, I am not. How about you keeping it real". :-) Here's mine.
If you're in East Legon or can access it, don't look any further for all your barbering, salooning and beauty therapy needs. I already introduced Revelations Beauty Salon & Spa to you on this blog. Now, they also have a web presence, check out their website at  http://revelations.getafricaonline.com/. Go see them and create some memories for yourself!

2 hours, 33 minutes after the massage, am still feeling the relaxed muscles. The masseuse(s) dealt with me personally! Haba! habatically!

Official Pick-up lines to try out for fun

By -
A friend and I were discussing pick up lines the other day and if they do work, etc. They've been a few that I've wanted to use but I haven't mustered enough courage to try them. I'm still collecting my thoughts for that blog entry on women too. Earlier today, I realised my cousin had tagged me in some note full of pick-up lines and that list was hilarious. I have now run out of excuses to try some pick-up lines. After all, what do I have to lose? Don't I want to actually see what will happen? Won't I have some juicy stories to tell? I would, that's why I will be picking out of these pick-up lines next time I am inna di club or some other appropriate or unappropriate location. So here goes - I can't find my puppy, can you help me find him? I think he went into this cheap motel room. Let's do breakfast tomorrow. Should I call you or nudge you? Yo Baby, you be my Dairy Queen, I'll be your Burger King, you treat me right, and I'll do it yo

Learnt how to say "Thank You" in 23 African languages

By -
Today, I learnt how to say "Thank You" in yet another African language. So let me take a stab at seeing if I can say "Merci" in 23 African languages. And let's share some small attendant info. :-) Akan: Medaase . What you thought I wouldn't add my mother tongue? Some folks can't say what "thank you" is in their lingua francas. Such a fracas. Don't belittle this at all at all. Ga: Oyiwaladonn . I don't remember when I learnt this but I do know I learnt to say "Nnuu Ga" (I can't speak Ga) during the time I came to Accra to represent KNUST JSS in Kiddie Quiz and me and my Kumasi-living mates were testing our Ga knowledge. Ewe: Akpe . I love saying "Akpe kakaa" and I am not sure why. Dagbani: Ti pagi da . Yeap, Jemila Abdulai taught me this one. Thrice. You can also say Mpagya . Hausa: Na gode . I should have known this a long time ago but thanks to Manre Chirtau, I will not forget this one. Ever. Alafia lo! S

Learnt how to say "What is your name" & "My name is" in 23 African languages

By -
Depending on which country I am in and who I am speaking to, I can have 1 out of about 7 names. You probably know my real one, but you do know my Ugandan , Kenyan , Nigerian , Ethiopian , Tanzanian and South African ones? Or my real other name which I use to call myself when I meet some lucky lady I feel like saying it to? Just in case, you happen to be in certain place or country and you feel you have to pull one of these out, let's learn how to say " What is your name " and " My name is " in 23 African languages. :-) Thanks to my friends who helped me pull this list together recently as I had missed writing blog posts such as these. Akan: Wo din de s É› n?   Me din de .. Yeah, name in Twi is "din". It might be more popular to hear people say  Y É› fr É›  wo s É› n? &  Y É› fr É› me ... which directly translates to "What do we call you? & We call me...  Ga: Te ats É› É”  kbo t É› Å‹ Å‹ ? Ats É› É”  mi..  I learnt this once but I don't rem
