when low goes high



read a book that discusses paradox, everything has one, life is one. you can see it all around you, hear it al around you. recently i had been enjoying the beats of a hit song and all i could really catch were few words here and there and when curiosity got the better of me - i looked up the lyrics, was a lil surprised at what i had been humming( almost) - paradox you say? have a look here :

[Chorus:]
Shawty had them Apple Bottom Jeans [Jeans]
Boots with the fur [With the fur]
The whole club was lookin at her
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

Them baggy sweat pants
And the Reeboks with the straps [With the straps]
She turned around and gave that big booty a smack [Ayy]
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

[Verse 1:]
I ain't never seen nuthin that'll make me go,
This crazy all night spendin my dough
Had a million dollar vibe and a bottle to go
Dem birthday cakes, they stole the show
So sexual, she was flexible
Professional, drinkin X and ooo
Hold up wait a minute, do I see what I think I
Whoa
Did I think I seen shorty get low
Ain't the same when it's up that close
Make it rain, I'm makin it snow
Work the pole, I got the bank roll
Imma say that I prefer them no clothes
I'm into that, I love women exposed
She threw it back at me, I gave her more
Cash ain't a problem, I know where it goes

She had them

[Chorus:]
Apple Bottom Jeans [Jeans]
Boots with the fur [With the fur]
The whole club was lookin at her
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

Them baggy sweat pants
And the Reeboks with the straps [With the straps]
She turned around and gave that big booty a smack
[Ayy]
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

[Verse 2:]
Hey
Shawty what I gotta do to get you home
My jeans full of gwap
And they ready for Shones
Cadillacs Maybachs for the sexy grown
Patrone on the rocks that'll make you moan

One stack (come on)
Two stacks (come on)
Three stacks (come on, now that's three grand)
What you think I'm playin baby girl
I'm the man, I'll bend the rubber bands

That's what I told her, her legs on my shoulder
I knew it was ova, that Henny and Cola
Got me like a Soldier
She ready for Rover, I couldn't control her
So lucky oo me, I was just like a clover
Shorty was hot like a toaster
Sorry but I had to fold her,
Like a pornography poster
She showed her

[Chorus:]
Apple Bottom Jeans [Jeans]
Boots with the fur [With the fur]
The whole club was lookin at her
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

Them baggy sweat pants
And the Reeboks with the straps [With the straps]
She turned around and gave that big booty a smack [Ayy]
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

[Verse 3:]
Whoa
Shawty
Yea she was worth the money
Lil mama took my cash,
And I ain't want it back,
The way she bit that rag,
Got her them paper stacks,
Tattoo Above her crack,
I had to handle that,

I was on it, sexy woman, let me shownin
They be want it two in the mornin
I'm zonin in them rosay bottles foamin
She wouldn't stop, made it drop
Shorty did that pop and lock,
Had to break her off that gwap
Gah it was fly just like my glock

[Chorus:]
Apple Bottom Jeans [Jeans]
Boots with the fur [With the fur]
The whole club was lookin at her
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

Them baggy sweat pants
And the Reeboks with the straps [With the straps]
She turned around and gave that big booty a smack [Ayy]
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

C'mon

being gall-less



a lil over ten days ago, i underwent a surgery. we all feel differently about our personal challenges, this one was supreme for me.

i was diagnosed with gall stones a long time ago, i immediately decided to get it operated, after all, i was a young, stoic girl, too busy with life to waste a moment over what really had to be done and gotten over with. fixed an appointment, got the OT booked, all set for it. then i heard my cousin had delivered a baby and we went to see her, only to lose her hours later to the same surgery, she was diagnosed with the gall stones during her pregnancy and was operated soon after her delivery, the surgeon slipped and gave her pancreatistis and that was it. i cancelled my OT booking.

months later, my other cousin goes through hell with the same surgery, suffering two years before she could surface. all in all, i was terrified, if not worse. alot happened soon after, many many homeopaths were tried and tested and chucked, only to gain an unfathomable amount of weight...thats when i realised, i couldn’t hide any longer, the truth is staring me in my face, cajoling me sometimes, beseeching me at others, and when i don’t look, yelling inside my ears!

if there is a mystic law, its this. last year i was hospitalised for exhaustion, thats when i discovered my life long suffering cause - thalassemia. that answered so many questions for me. im glad that i got operated post this discovery, it was important. ofcourse the surgery went well, ofcourse i was i am recovering just fine. the acidity took its toll, incase you dont know this already, they actually pump CO2 into you before they cut those holes and the gas takes it time before it bids adieu!

to top it all, the bladder actually looks so innocent, baby pink, no taller than your thumb, it was floating in a jar, with those puppy eyes, but i had to let go...(LOL). i still have the stones, they are black and have this rough texture, divided between keeping them and flushing them...hmmmm. but the good thing is i have already begun to lose some weight and im feeling good that soon i will be myself ( and can wear that dress im dying to wear!). in the meanwhile im being spoilt, with care, love and presents, have a pile of books i havent opened, perfumes i havent sniffed, bags i cant carry yet...shoes too high for my delicate state...but its such a nice place to be- all nice and cozy!!!

i cant bend, take the stairs, eat out, jump, dance, shop, become one with the most scrumptious chocolates, but i can walk, can talk, can read, i can sit back and watch as many movies, sleep like a baby and smile, the worst is over...
