WEEKEND LUV - THE COMEBACK EDITION

Hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What’s good everyone???
I am in such a good mood today……despite the fact that work is hella busy today and my feet still hurt from walking around in high heels all day yesterday.
I joined the gym like 3 months ago and I have only gone 5 times….that is just so typical of me….I think I am going to hit the gym hard this weekend! No excuses, no going out, no going shopping! Just the gym and sleep!
I am soooo excited, one of my lil’ sisters is coming to see me next weekend so I have to start thinking of fun things we can do…..hmmm she will probably just x me and go out with her friends but its all good really.
Anyways, is this Weekend Luv? I think it is!!!

Vids
Asa is soooo talented!
Here is her video: Asa – Fire On The Mountain
She and TY Bello are just in a league of their own.


Wyclef, Nia, Akon & Weezy – Sweetest Girl
I loveeeeeeee this song! Positive meaning and melodious tune! I know Wyclef isn’t African but he’s close enough.


Hits
Wande Coal & D’Banj – Booty
This song is about such a daft subject that I refused to listen to it for weeks. I finally listened and I was totally hooked! It’s a funny song but the chorus is just sooo catchy. I listen to it all the time. Check on it!

Oladele Ft Eldee – Spray Me Money Rmx
All the tracks I’ve heard from Oladele’s new album are soooo hot! Is it out yet? You guys need to get a copy ASAP! Check out this teaser from the album….Spray me money Rmx. The song just makes me laugh! Luv it!
Check out his myspace - HERE
Cop the album on itunes HERE

Banky W – Umbrella/Ebute Metta
Y’all should have heard this song by now right? Banky’s take on Ri-ri’s Umbrella. Someone was telling me that she has heard it and was impressed. Don’t know if its true but I’m feeling it!

Have a fab weekend!!!
Kisses and Much Love
Bella

praise the lord. Let me continue. Yes as I was saying this post is hot. Bella I have a special request... can you also post your pictures in a Gallery so that I can click from one pix to another without having to wait for an epileptic internet juice to load another page with the next picture. Mucho Gracias

By the way get a gym motivator...A REALLY CUTE GUY or go to your boyfriend's gym (you get to spend quality time together). That should help (not that i know anything about that.. i'm just saying:) lol

Ok that song (spray me money) is funny, in fact let me go and find it on itunes or something, I don't want fire to burn me.

Bella, aside from the aesthetic aspects of working out, its necessary to live a good life. Maybe the gym is not what you need though, maybe you need to visit a dance studio or yogi or go rock climbing. See if you can get a refund and go do other things instead. Killing yourself one weekend at the gym might just discourage when your body pains u finish.

i must say that Asa's video is so fucking dope... waw!!!!!!!!!!!! i am super impressed. is she nigerian though?

i don't know if i get the haute fashion show.... looks good however did not see much pics of designer cloths.

i like ope and her lad's wedding site. makes you feel like falling in love or giving luv a try. while some were a bit interesting others were a lil but on the boring side. needless to say, i do commend them for the effort put in to make the site.

question!!! aren't there any nigerian love songs that the weddingnista can use. like in the local language.

so who goes shopping in heels. were you trying to toast Nicolas Sarkozy or Gordon Brown

joicee said...

You are not at all alone in terms of not keeping up with fitness et al...

Unbiased said...

Damn Bella!! When you come back you come back. Took me a while to get through all the info. I am still processing. lol!! you go girl.

PS: Thanks for the honorary mention.

Asa ROCKS!!! I'm sooooooo glad she finally has a video out!! I prefer her yoruba stuff though, and I can't wait until she releases videos for those too! Keep making us proud, girl!!!
