FLAT TWISTS ATTEMPT ON MY SISTER 'S HAIR

I HAVE LESS AND LESS TIME TO POST SO THIS JUST A QUICK ONE. EVEN IF I AM NOT AN EXPERT ON BRAIDS I AM BETTER AT IT THAN TWISTS.  MY SISTER MANAGE  TWISTS BUT CAN'T BRAIDS......... I MEAN CAN'T MAKE FLAT BRAIDS.
ONE OF THE STYLE I REALLY LIKE IT'S FLAT TWISTS BECAUSE OF THE DEFINITION THAT COME WITH WHEN YOU TAKE  THEM OUT.
 I HAVE BEEN WATCHING ON YOUTUBE A LOT OF TUTORIALS ABOUT FLAT TWIST AND I TRY ON MY SISTER 'S HAIR.
I KNOW THE RESULTS  ARE NOT PRETTY IMPRESSIVE BUT I HOPE TO IMPROVE IN THE FUTURE.

FOR ME IT IS QUITE SIMPLE BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER I HAD TO GO BACK TO  A PROTECTIVE STYLE AKA SIMPLE TWISTS OR BRAIDS  COVER WITH BANDANAS.
 I T IS RAINING ALMOST EVERYDAY  HERE IN LONDON AND THE WIND IS VERY STRONG AND COLD.
WE DID NOT HAVE A REAL SPRING YET AND ARE ALMOST AT THE END OF MAY.. SCARY VERY SCARY BUT I WILL NOT COMPLAIN BECAUSE IN SOME PARTS OF UK IT IS SNOOOOWING...YEAH !

I KNOW THE T-SHIRT IS RIPPED OFF BUT IT IS MY FAVOURITE ONE I WILL NEVER THROW IT AWAY.LOL

SOMETIMES I JUST WEAR MY HAIR WITH A FRO' EVEN IF I KNOW THAT I WILL HAVE A SERIOUS SHRINKAGE BUT I REALLY DON'T CARE IT IS ALL ABOUT LOW MAINTENANCE ANYWAY...LOL

BEAUTIFUL ETHIOPIAN SONG

I DO NOT SPEAK AMHARIC BUT NO NEED TOO WHEN MUSIC IS SO GOOD. A FRIEND OF MINE ( SHE IS ETHIOPIAN ) SEND ME THIS VIDEO OF A NEW GIRL  BAND SENSATION IN ETHIOPIA.
I JUST LOVE IT AND HOPE YOU WILL TOO. IF YOU HAVE NOTICE  EACH GIRL REPRESENT A COLOUR,  WHITE, RED, BLUE, YELLOW AND PINK.  MY FAVORITE IS BLUE I GUESS YOU  NOTICE IT.

SHE EVEN TRY TO TRANSLATE  WHAT THEY SAID IN ESSENTIAL;
" The song is essentially about not forgetting each other wherever life may take them. They urge people not to be demeaning of others but to be loving, supportive, and respectful. They’re also singing about how they (the new generation) is rising up. They’ve made up their mind. The suffering of the past and struggles they’ve had to endure is enough. They’ve got love, wisdom, and patience and they’re moving ahead without looking back"

LOVE THE MESSAGE AND IT CHANGE FROM THE OVER SEXY STYLE THAT IS PROMOTED IN WESTERN MUSIC.

UN PREDICTABLE WEATHER + HUMIDITY = AFRO SHRINKAGE....LOL

EVEN IF THE WEATHER IS QUITE GOOD IN LONDON  WE STILL HAVE SOME DISPARITIES DURING THE DAY. LIKE  EVEN  WITH  A HOT SUNSHINE WE CAN ALSO SWITCH TO RAIN JUST IN FEW MINUTES. SO TO MAINTAIN A DEFINED  TWIST OUT, IT IS QUITE CHALLENGING FOR ME.
 LAST WEEK  MY HAIR WAS  LIKE THIS IN THE MORNING BEFORE GOING TO WORK

IT TOOK ME ONLY 30 MINUTES IN THE BUS  AND WHEN I ARRIVED AT WORK  MY HAIR LOOKED  LIKE THIS :

SO THE ALL WEEK I HAVE TO WEAR MY HAIR WITH A FRO AND TO BE HONEST I THOUGH THAT IT WAS QUITE FUNNY AND EASY TO MAINTAIN WITH THIS CAPRICIOUS WEATHER.
 MY ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT  MY HAIR CAN BE DRY AND I ALSO NEED TO DO SOME BIG TWISTS BUT THAT'S FINE ...LOL :

ON MY  WAY BACK HOME THERE ARE SOME BEAUTIFUL TREES WITH FLOWERS I JUST CUT ONE THEN I  PUT IT ON MY HAIR. IT SMELT GOOD, IT LOOKED NICE  AND IT WAS FRESH... LOL :

I THINK THAT I WILL GO BACK TO MICRO BRAIDS BECAUSE OF THIS WEATHER  THEN MAYBE I WILL TWIST AGAIN.
 BUT I DO NOT HAVE SO MUCH TIME NOW SINCE I AM A FULL TIME MEMBER OF THE CHURCH , YES I AM GOING THERE 3 TIMES A WEEK.

TRIMMING MY HAIR AND HOW TO SIMPLIFY MORE .......

NOW THAT I AM VERY ACTIVE IN MY NEW CHURCH I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO SPEND ON MY HAIR. BECAUSE I HAD  2 EVENINGS BOOKED DUE TO CHURCH ACTIVITIES.

I JUST TRIMMED MY HAIR BECAUSE OF THE  SPLITS END. I AM STILL DOING THE TWISTS BUT I REALLY WANT TO TRY JUST TO BLOW DRY MY HAIR AND LET IT BE. THE WEATHER IS GOOD AND I AM STARTING TO BECOMING  LAZY AGAIN. LOL
I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM  TO USE PINS, THEY ALWAYS GET STUCK IN MY HAIR.

MY NEW CHURCH MEMBERS ARE VERY NICE AND INTERESTING.  I REALLY LOVE THE THURSDAY 'S SESSION WHERE WE DOING A QUESTION/ANSWER ON THE SUNDAY SERMON. THE OUTCOME IS SO DEEP FOR ME.

I NEED TO CHANGE MY ROUTINE TO SUITS MY NEW TIMETABLE. I TRY ALSO THE FLAT TWISTS BUT I AM NOT GOOD AT IT BUT I WILL INSIST BECAUSE I LOVE THE DEFINITION THAT THE FLAT TWIST OUT GIVE. MAYBE NEXT TIME.

BACK TO LIFE ... BACK TO REALITY ... BACK TO CHURCH

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME THAT I DIDN'T GO TO CHURCH IN FACT THE LAST TIME WAS 7 YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS LIVING  IN CAMEROON, MY COUNTRY. I WAS REALLY ATTACHED TO THAT CHURCH BECAUSE THE PASTOR WAS REALLY INSPIRING , THE CHURCH WAS NOT TO FAR AWAY FROM MY FATHER,S VILLAGE ( HIS BIRTH,S PLACE ) AND ABOVE ALL THE SERVICE WAS IN MY NATIVE LANGUAGE " BASSAA" ESPECIALLY THE SONG. ALL THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME.

BUT WHEN I CAME TO LONDON I TRIED TO FIND A CHURCH WHERE I CAN FEEL COMFORTABLE  AND WITH A SERVICE AT LEAST IN FRENCH BUT OR IT WAS TOO FAR AWAY OR IT WAS TO BIG. IN FACT I AM NOT REALLY ATTRACT TO BIG BIG CHURCHES.
I 'VE  BEEN THERE AND IT IS TOO IMPERSONAL FOR ME. SO I JUST PRAY AND READ THE BIBLE WITH MY SISTER THAT WAS ENOUGH UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN I WAS WALKING NEXT TO THE PARK EXACTLY  FEW STREETS AWAY  FROM MY HOUSE.

 THIS IS MY CHURCH HAIRSTYLE

I JUST HEARD SOME MUSIC COMING FROM A HOUSE,  I WENT TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING THERE AND A WOMAN WITH A VERY BEAUTIFUL SMILE INVITED ME TO COME IN. WE DISCUSSED AND SHE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A CHURCH. I WAS QUITE SURPRISED BECAUSE IT LOOKED LIKE A REGULAR HOUSE THERE ARE ONLY 20 MEMBERS BUT I FELT THAT IT WAS THE RIGHT PLACE  FOR ME. ON THURSDAY I ATTENDED  MY FIRST BIBLE STUDY AND IT WAS VERY GOOD.

 I THINK THAT AT LAST I JUST FIND ....... MY CHURCH. IT WAS NICE TO PRAY ,  READ AND DISCUSS THE BIBLE WITH MY SISTER BUT BOTH OF US WANTED TO BE PART OF A CONGREGATION.
SOMETIMES IN ORDER TO GET BACK TO LIFE, YOU NEED TO FACE REALITY ..... YOU JUST NEED TO GO TO CHURCH. THAT'S HOW I FEEL RIGHT NOW.

AAAAAAAAT LAAAAAST ! ...... THE SPRING IS COMING HOME.... LOL

   AT LAST THE SPRING IS COMING HOME
   THE WINTER DAYS ARE OVER 
   AND LIFE IS LIKE A SONG

YOU ARE VERY LUCKY TO NOT HAVE TO LISTEN TO  ME SINGING .LOL

I AM BACK TO WORK AND WE ARE LUCKY IN LONDON THE WEATHER STARTS TO BE WARM. COMPARE TO THE FREEZING WINDS WE HAD ALL THE EASTER HOLIDAYS IT IS QUITE ENCOURAGING FOR ME. I CAN WEAR LIGHTER CLOTHES. BUT I STILL HAVE A JACKET BUT A VERY THIN ONE.LOL

I PLAN TO WEAR MY HAIR WITHOUT ANY SCARF OR BRAIDS. THAT'S WHY I WANT TO EXCEL IN THE TWIST OUT. SO I CAN GO OUT WITH A NICE DEFINED HAIRSTYLE. BUT I AM STILL NOT HAPPY ABOUT THE RESULTS.

I AM QUITE HAPPY WITH THE BACK BUT NOT THE FRONT AND I WANT TO TRY THE FLAT TWISTS BUT I AM NOT VERY GOOD AT THEM. BUT I DECIDED TO PRACTICE SO I WILL BE READY FOR THE SUMMER.

 MY FAVORITE FLOWERS ARE HORTENSIAS SO I DECIDED TO DO MY MAKE UP BY USING THE SAME COLORS THAT YOU CAN FIND WITH THIS FLOWERS PINK/ FUCHSIA AND PURPLE/ BLUE. IT IS MY WAY TO CELEBRATE THE LATE COMING OF THE SPRING SEASON.

OK ! OK  !  I KNOW I AM NOT A  MAKE UP ARTIST BUT I AM AN "AMATEUR" ARTIST SO I CAN DO WHAT I CAN. I AM LEARNING SO PLEASE DON'T BE TOO HARD WITH ME.

A VERY DISTURBING PHONE CALL.....

IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A VERY QUITE AND PEACEFUL EASTER HOLIDAYS BUT IT TURN OUT TO BE A SAD ONE FOR ME.

EVERYTHING WAS OK ON EASTER MONDAY EXCEPT THAT AT 7 PM I RECEIVED A CALL ON MY MOBILE IT WAS AN UNKNOWN/ RESTRICTED NUMBER BUT I DID NOT PAY ATTENTION AND I JUST ANSWERED...... A VERY BIG MISTAKE.....
I THEN  HEARD A MAN VOICE WITH AN "ASIAN ACCENT" TELLING ME THAT " A FRIEND OF MINE" GAVE HIM  £ 10 000 TO KILL ME IF I DO NOT LEAVE THE AREA..... YEAH ! JUST THAT.

I TRIED TO MAKE HIM SAY MY NAME BUT HE WAS KEEP REPEATING THE SAME THREAT .. YOU HAVE TO LIVE THE AREA OR SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN TO YOU AND I DON'T WANT  YOU TO BE HURT.

I JUST END THE CONVERSATION BY TELLING HIM THAT  HE MADE THE WRONG NUMBER BECAUSE I HAVE NO FRIEND IN LONDON WHO CAN PAY THAT HUGE SUM OF MONEY JUST TO MAKE ME KILLED.
AFTER THE CALL I WAS QUITE SHOCKED AND I  CALLED THE POLICE  WHO CAME  15 MINUTES LATER.

BECAUSE IT WAS AN UNKNOWN  NUMBER  THE POLICE TOLD ME THAT THEY COULDN'T TRACK IT EASILY BUT I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY BECAUSE IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO KILL ME  THIS PERSON WILL NEVER WARN ME.
PLUS HE SEEMED  TO NOT KNOWING MY NAME AND MY ADDRESS BECAUSE HE WAS REPEATING THE SAME THREAT. AND THE GOOD THING WAS THAT I NEVER GAVE MY NAME SO IT WAS A JOKE OR MAYBE AN ATTEMPT TO BLACKMAIL ME IN THE FUTURE FOR MONEY.

 BUT THEY PUT ME ON THE VICTIM WATCH AND SUPPORT.
DURING 2 DAYS I WAS AFRAID TO GO OUT THEN MY SISTER TOLD ME TO CALM DOWN AND LISTEN TO THE POLICE'S ADVICE. NEVER ANSWER TO AN UNKNOWN NUMBER AND DO NOT  OPEN THE DOOR IF YOU ARE NOT EXPECTING SOMEONE.
SINCE THE INCIDENT THE PERSON KEEP ON CALLING BUT I JUST REJECTED  EACH  CALL AND  KEEP IT RECORD FOR THE POLICE.

NOW I JUST WANT TO HIDE SOMEWHERE.
