I'm Coming Out

UPDATE: This entry was made for April Fool's Day. I have no plans of coming out yet. Yeah, some of us love it in the closet :p

So yesterday, through no fault of mine, my lifelong secret of being gay was revealed. I'm not ready to come out but looks like there nothing i can do about it now.

I left for home yesterday as normal only to find out my Brother-in-Law had taken a detour from Dubai to London to come see her wife (big sis who's visiting).

Usually i lock my computer when leaving home and my sis prefers to use the lap top anyway so i didnt have to worry about my gay porn stash in the "Trash Can".

Turns out for some reason dude went looking in the bin and seeing movies in a folder consicuously named "Abonsam cartoons" [devil's cartoons in Twi], he restored them to the desktop to look at them.

So yeah i've been outted and i thought i'd just ride the wave and tell everyone about what i am.

My mum's ready to disown me and shrinks are being ordered here and there to come cure me.

I know i should be sad, but this has helped me in a way. No going back now.

It Was Funnier In Twi

Ok, taking a break now from being gay and moving right along...

My 23rd birthday has come to pass withour incidence and i dont feel any older like i feared. I cant really remember what I did for my birthday, so when people ask, i just tell them "nothing". Dont worry people... i didnt get drunk and pass out or anything... I'm holding on to that for my midlife crisis in a coupla years time.

The one thing I wanted for my birthday though, i didnt get. Nah.. not leopard print thongs. (Thats gay!) ... i wanted Nail clippers/trimmers. I still dont have them so i suppose i'll wait till Christmas and keep harping on about it till someone gets me some damn nail clippers!!

My Sis is back in London with my niece Nana Pokua, cho i prefer to call "Number 3" because i've got too many nieces to keep track of their names. She only the third niece i have by my sister... my bro has 3, last time i checked anyway. (Sometime last week).

Tlaking about big bro... He finally made it back from his ill-fated trip to Ghana. Looks like the trip wasnt meant to be right from the start. He hadnt been back to Ghana in donkey's years and for some reason decided to go by some banana republic-esque charter airline flight.

The first problem encountered when he left home for the airport on his initial outward journey date only to find out the organiser of the flight was being accosted for debts owed to a few employees. he had to trek back home and try to find a flight the following week (on the same charter jet).

Luckily he didnt have to dish out more money. So he got there (Ghana) alright. Then came the news that the airline had folded. Meaning he was stuck in Ghana and had to book another flight home. A coupla weeks delay afterwards... he made it back.

The moral of the story? Dont fly FlyJet. (Not that you'd be able to anyway).

He came back with a few funny stories from Ghana (aside from the "It so hot you could....[insert funny text here]" type of jokes relating to the increasing spate of robberies in the cities (Accra and Kumasi). Only problem is that these jokes are only funny said in Twi.

If you can be arsed... follow me on the jump.

My Xbox 360 can Kick Your PS3's Ass

So I'm on a roll at work. Finishing most of my targets on time and having a lil' bit of time on my hands to actually take my breaks. But then i find i dont know what it's like to actually take my breaks...

I'm allowed about and hour and a half of break time in a day but i've never done more than half and hour on any day. I mean, what does one do?

I dont like spending too much time in the breakout room (the recreational room we have here are CPW HQ) so i take my lunch at my desk and work through it.

Anyway... so with very little to do today, i thought i'd try a bit of forum browsing and thought i'd pick one where people are bound to be at each other's necks from a seemingly stupid reason. Did a quick search on google for "Xbox 2 vs PS3" and came up with a lot to laugh at. Try it.

What we got here is people trying to analyse and convince other people that, the next generation games console that THEY THINK will be better IS ACTUALLY going to be better. Failure to see this "obvious reason" earns one some name calling in the vein of "Sony fanboy", "MS slave", "Game Cube teen" ...

Well something to while away the time. In any case... I'm only gonna get the system that is easier to hack and mod to suit my needs. In the last console generation, the Xbox won in my view but i'm not gonna be so daft as to try to tell anyone on any of these forums.... i'm not entirely well-renowned for my witty-comebacks. I wouldnt know what to say after calling them... "Gay", "Nigerian" and .... see? i cant even think of any more.

Just Another Normal Day

Entries have been lacking of late and when they do turn up they're sparsely littered about over the month. So i though i'd pay back y'all loyal visitors with some pictures.

So here's some pictures of a normal day in Faf's life... Some were taken weeks after others but just trying to give y'all an idea...

Yeah. Another boring day aint it? I know, i know. Its a sad life.
