Recently, I had a very crazy idea to voice log a day in my weekend life in NYC! It took a lot to put it together but I’m so happy to see it worked out!
I had such a cool & cozy Saturday ft. laundry, a visit to the nail saloon, plant mum duties, cooking a typical Nigerian breakfast and hosting a friend! My friend came over to spend the whole day and we had a lot to catch up on and chat about - from societal expectations of women to age-old gender roles, to the sometimes unequal division of household chores in marriage. Also, about possible low levels of Vitamin D in Black people, cultural ignorance and offensive assumptions/stereotypes about Nigerians...yeah, it was a whole LOT.
I hope you enjoy listening, and getting to know me a little better as this is nothing like I’ve ever done before.
Today is also Nov. 23, 2023! Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving if you’re in the US and reading this today! I also hope you enjoy(ed) the holiday/weekend.
Till next time...with love from NYC,
Tolu (& Funto)

Hi guys, happy Saturday. Welcome back to another episode. If you're new here, welcome. Today is November 4th 2023 and on today's episode I decided to do something very crazy and try a podcast a day in my life in New York City, audio Style. So let's see. I hope it works out. But I hope you're doing well and if you're listening on a random day, evening, morning, I think this would be the perfect episode. Just take me along with you to just vibe. If you just need a voice playing the background, I can be there for you. Today is nothing serious, I promise. I just had to try this out and, yeah, come along with me. I hope you enjoy the rest of the episode. Bye, guys. Hi guys, yes, I'm back.
Speaker 1:So the time is 7 thirty four am. Clearly, I have just woken up, and usually on Saturdays I actually wake up close at 10 am 10, 11, depending on how my Friday went. But today in particular, I decided to wake up really early because I have a friend coming over for breakfast this morning and she said she wanted to eat Yemen eggs and I haven't prepped the tomatoes and pepper yet, so they are currently thawing and, funny enough, I wanted to wash my head this morning and also go to the nail salon. So today is a busy kind of Saturday. You know, I just started doing my laundry. I don't know if you can hear the washing machine background already, but the plan is to get the clothes washed and maybe it can dry while we go out, because we also plan to go painting later today. I just laid my bed I don't know what else. I just also took out the trash. You know, I just feel so energized and my nail salon across my house opens at 8 30 so I need maximum. I want to be there by 9 so that I can do my nails before my friend arrives for breakfast. I just need to bow the yam and fry the eggs. We shouldn't take more than 30-40 minutes.
Speaker 1:So, yes, but today I had this crazy, very crazy idea. I actually haven't seen it done anywhere before, even and I listen to a lot of podcasts too but today I was like you know what? Let me just me self. I want to take it easy. So I just want to do it day in my life. I want to see how it will work out. You know, I watched a minute a day in my life on YouTube and I was like what if I also tried just to do audio version, although the only problem is if I won't take you to the shower while I wash my hair. I feel like my my podcast platform streaming platform and editing studio would automatically edit the noise out, so it might not work, but I will be describing it to be like I'm taking you on a tour of my day.
Speaker 1:I think that's what we're going to try to stick to anyway, but I know since the last episode by the way, I hope you guys are all caught up on the out-of-office episode that was that's. That's the very, that was the very fun episode I've done in a long while. I mean, I always say that in all my episodes anyway really my eyes. But I really enjoyed that one because I wasn't just interviewing my friends for my listeners, I was interviewing for myself. I have a lot to learn as regards when it comes to love and dating and, of course, marriage, so it was very eye-opening for me. So, yes, I hope you get a chance to go to listen and to finish it.
Speaker 1:A lot of people told me they started but they haven't finished, but I also have chapter markers there if you need to skip to the part that concerns your interests, you. So, yeah, let me know what you think. I also got some feedback on podcast feedback form. I will attend to that in the next episode, although someone did write to me that there's anything they could change about this episode. It will be the use of expertise, and I was like whoa, okay, okay, okay, I hear you, and that's also something my sister, my middle younger sister, told me before that. When did you start swearing? I mean, I see me, I don't know, but that's I want to express myself, please allow me, doesn't change anything, you know. So I'll, of course, address that later. But yeah, but today is all good vibes, good vibes. I don't know if you follow my Instagram too.
Speaker 1:You know I also just got back from Seattle last weekend. Actually, I flew back on Sunday morning, I think Saturday night, I don't remember. Now is it Friday, I don't remember anymore. But that last weekend was a blur because I had just flown in on a six hour flight. Well, thankfully, I also flew first class. You see what it's good to once you touch money. Once, after Cornell flew me first class, I was like this seats are quite big. I think I can get used to this.
Speaker 1:And then, when it was time to book my work trip. I had work, I had trip credits. So before, if you travel and you use less than the budgeted amount for your role and for your level, you they give you the credits. So I applied those credits I had in my previous work trips to this one and so I could book a first class ticket. So, and they won't serve those food. I was like, wow, they're out here serving food in first class. Yeah. So that was gone and it was a six hour flight anyway. So I was like I had to do it, yeah. Yeah, I was such a long flight. Every time I felt so nosy, but anyway, I think I'm now breathing on land, but yeah. So I was in Seattle for work. That was good to meet. I mean, I think I'd met everybody. I think was just one person out of eight of us I hadn't met in person before. But yeah, it's always nice.
Speaker 1:I have a lot to say about work, though, but that would be in another episode, like someone has told me to stop saying I will not, I will, just too late I would. I promise I will. I have it written down, don't worry. So yeah, today is going to be YouTube style. Like I said, I'm just trying it out. Another experimental episode, and usually a typical Saturday for me would be doing laundry, like I've already started this morning, maybe watching TV sometimes.
Speaker 1:I also tried to catch up on my writing. Many of you might know I have a blog or medium kind of where I try to write. Sometimes I might try to catch up on my painting because I have some, I have some pieces that I caught. It's called painting by numbers, so I just need to paint on the numbers. So the paint is already numbered. I just need to paint on the canvas with the numbers, following the numbers. So that I found that as a good hobby for me, helps me focus and helps me really distress, because all I'm trying to think about is getting that painting done, like I'm trying. All I'm trying to make sure that paints is going into the exact lines you know. So I hardly can think of anything else. So I find very distressing for me, which is good.
Speaker 1:Something else I don't during the weekends. Usually I would call my family. I owe my dad and mommy calls, so last week too, I felt ill one of those days and they called to check on me but I was in a meeting so I couldn't pick. So I need to return their calls, and I usually call my younger sisters too on Saturdays and just catch up with them. My baby sister, who is 10, likes me to stay on the call with her, sometimes if she's making a hair or playing games. So you know, I just help. I exist basically on Saturday, so yeah, so I think I will do that, but I'm going out today too.
Speaker 1:My friend just moved to New York for her business school. I mean, we were, we knew of each other while we were in college, coming to University back in Nigeria, and she just moved. So I'm trying to take her around the city, I guess, and introduce her to some of my hobbies to see if she likes them. So of course we're going painting actual paint, fun, actual painting class, so those ones you actually follow along with instructors. And then she says she was done. I said, okay, let's go. And yet, and of course that's after we have the Yaman egg have I mentioned that she wanted to eat Yaman egg. I'm not sure, but yeah, she said she wanted to eat Yaman egg. So she's coming over for breakfast before 10 am and I'll try to get that done for her.
Speaker 1:For people whom I've been new here to introduce myself, let me say me, like I said, this YouTube style a podcast about Faith, career and lifestyle in the US. Or should I say faith, immigration and lifestyle, or faith, career and immigration? I don't know, I don't really think I Talk about immigration so much. I don't know, I'm still figuring it out. But yeah, what also tells before I go and wash my hair? So After I, yes, alright, now I'm going to go wash my hair, prep the peppers and then I will be on my way to the nail salon. So, yes, I'll see you guys in Next section of this vlog. You know, just like I said, ignore guys. No, I'll see you guys soon. Ignore the fact that this is experimental, but I will. I will see. How would you two? I say it. They'll be like come along with me. So I can't really take you to go wash my hair with me, but maybe I can take you to the nail salon. I don't know, we'll see how it goes, but stay tuned. Hi guys, I'm back. The time is 8.35 now, so I'm still well with you Time.
Speaker 1:I'm trying to get to the nail salon before 9 am. Oh Gosh, I hope I don't regret the decision to wash my locks. So I decided to wash it because I wanted to. I want to keep it for an extra month. I have four locks on currently and I'm just, like you can see, like white stuff on your hair sometimes or you just feeling old, and I'm like I'm not ready to take out this hair because I don't have any plans for another hair and I'm no longer trying to do braids. It's just very stressful. So I said let me wash my hair, but now it feels heavier and then water keeps dripping. I'm so sad. I've told my friend to bring a dryer as she's coming, because if I go to Saloon now, they charge me $30 for drying my hair. That's it. They will not accept these people here.
Speaker 1:Anyway, what next now? Okay, yeah, my throat feels a little itchy, so I've decided to boil some tea to drink. This is something I learned from my mom. If you're feeling sick, take ginger tea. If you're feeling bloated, take peppermint tea. If you're feeling Hotel speakers, feeling cute, then take fruit teas and then money you take black tea. So anyway, yeah, so it's been a. Yes, I've been a child always used to drinking tea anyway, but yeah, I need to have a pot. I fought to drink tea and I might be only one when the end of the bathroom that plays music so loud, oh my god. I just hope that my future partner Can take it.
Speaker 1:Let me also be doing my, and if I hear my, I'm spray my face to now do my skincare, the little stinker that I have. When I saw steam people do you them all those press, press, hmm, what they call it, tube, what they call it when you press it, I don't know the actual word. Now, amanda's another level. Now only the only me mom is just, I just put the code I use. I used to know almost Tires, natural remedies, fish and mist, which has all, and then I just use my sunscreen. Discover this new Korean brand, I think I do. Even the name is IS 3, and also you.
Speaker 1:Then I used to have a for night, much for sure lotion, moisturizer for night, and then I use water for my cream and then I can doff for my spray deodorants. Sometimes I also use and and hammer, which is something I learned from the mom. Anyway, natural deodorants I'm staying at home and therefore perfume I'm used. I've been using Chanel now for the past two years, but I said to trial Jameleon, so yeah, that's my, that's my skincare routine. Oh hey, I'm saying you guys about playing music loud. It's such a bad habit I remember when I first moved to itika.
Speaker 1:That one morning I just woke up like this. To get some Saturdays I actually wake up early, but this one I woke up early today because I also slept early Yesterday. I've been having I've not been sleeping well since I came back from Seattle and I think it's part of the jet lag. Anyway, I was at. I was awake at 7. I think I was also going out that day so I was like I'm still doing myself today, chose before I go. So I was cleaning and blasting music. You know, this girl came upstairs almost crying that, please, like she can hear music, she can hear the vacuum clean and the way I'm sweeping the bro. No, I was always in the book that she can hear it.
Speaker 1:I was like she's you know, usually I'm not gonna say anybody, because I'm like you put you to do your own bodies to disturb you. But that day she looks so worried and I've had my roommates to from time to time tell me to please reduce the music. But so I'm always do so. I'm very considerate, I'm so used to it, even my friend was, I was she comes to sleep over she's like to me.
Speaker 1:I don't like coming here because you always play music and I'm like you guys. You just want to be alone with your thoughts. When a place is too quiet, I don't like it. I mean, I like it. Sometimes it's a pension. That's why it can be low-fi music.
Speaker 2:It can be classical music by blame my dad's at this one, this one, I lent it from my dad. I don't want my sister's.
Speaker 1:I think we all do it. At least three or five of us do it.
Speaker 1:We play music on the bathroom and you know, in Nigeria most of us had buckets in our battle. Excuse me, we will not put the phone in the bucket so that it will be louder. Next speaker, because in the place where I speak I'm out of my dad's room. I don't have this woofer used to use. So nice, we work up a certain money. I'm not hearing dumb or not, kenny Rogers or like all those music people.
Speaker 1:Tina Turner will be like where's that? Maybe has gone out of one to something because Music has to be playing. But anyway, I Just hope that is something that I Don't. I don't see the, I don't see the habit I had any time soon. So I hope our forever remain concentrate to whoever I end up living for life. I Need I'm sick. Remember the idea plan lotion, the second, my second wash load is ready and it's one. Put the second patch of clothes to wash and then, yeah, I will be on my way to the nail salon. And oh, I forgot to mention actually that. I forgot to mention I, I turned three in the US. Sorry, I celebrate all this random mass.
Speaker 1:Shall know this one is not random. I came to the US. I left Nigeria October 31st 2021 After the end says a week after m says, and I landed November 1st and then I got to it the car November 2nd but I always celebrate November 2nd because that's when it really don't know me when I got to campus that, oh my god, I'm no longer in Nigeria, so I turned three to the glory of God. I always said great, I'm always grateful, especially when I remember how it took the hand of God to literally reopen the ms is for today, the country in 2020. So I always said the great that I think I posted on Instagram too. So, and I had dinner that I have my good friend as a tool. Shalla to you. But yeah, well, this is a day in the life episode is not bad. It's not bad at all. I guess I'll see you guys on my way to the nail salon. Hey guys, I still know, left to To this new sign, haters will say that I talk too much and I waste too much time, and I actually do. I'll be taking my sweet pressure sign. Anyway, I came, I had to come back, I was almost leaving, but I remember that they actually prefer to take cash at my nail salon. So I'm here and I'm trying to count how much cash I have in my bag. I usually keep money for tips or to buy so some, but they guys in New York or the street side shop, sometimes I'm outside and I want to buy a bottle of water. They don't take cards, so I always have cash on me. I Only have 25, 26 and 7, 28, 29, 30 and I'm doing a refill of my nails which would be like 40 something dollars and I like to tip my lady because she's actually good, even though she today she does not smile with me and she has done my nail almost 10 times now, like I don't know why she's always serious. Anyway, I Want to.
Speaker 1:I'm also wondering what color I should do. I just want, I think I'm gonna keep the same shape, same length, but I want to change color to brown, something foolish or like burnt orange, but my just do brown. I don't always change my mind and I get there. Today. I usually have screenshots from print Pinterest when I go, but today I'm Winging it because I just the only reason why I'm even. I wasn't gonna keep this nails a week longer and to that enough to For almost four weeks but they're still shaking. And once they start shaking like this, I can't stand it like I Really can't, and I think he's so razz or so ratchet to have one nail out and the other ones are still good. Although the few times that's happened to me and maybe I couldn't go to nails out immediately, I just use the bandage to cover it. But man, I can never, I can't stand a missing nail.
Speaker 1:So I said let me go and cook. You do it? Oh, it was not my plan as I yesterday night, but I was like no, have to do it, then I'll come back and make that young man egg. This is my leg. You know, when somebody actually to finally make a meal for them, that's when the thing used to spoil or to come out bad. But go for be, do I will pray before I start.
Speaker 1:Cookie, let me know, embarrass myself. Okay, I've got in my cash. Oh, I'm on my way. I'm finally on my way. Yes, I'm on my way. Don't, don't roll your eyes, but I'm not finish drinking my food. But, yeah, and I'm hungry.
Speaker 1:Oh God, you know, I remember the way much, younger days, to go and make their hair at the salon and you go with snacks Biscuits, capricorn, I still do it. Oh, it's chef, I'm gonna be selling six hours and I'm not eating good, real food. I'll go with my snacks, but this one is my nails. I'll need my hands at all times. So, oh and yes.
Speaker 1:So someone told me about. My mom is always telling me that I should be careful of the UV light that they used to dry our nails. So I bought these UV gloves from Amazon so that when they are, when my nails under the nail dryer, it can protect my skin from UV light. I keep forgetting to carry it, but thank God, I just remembered now. So Let me look for it now. If I can find it in there's a two minutes. I'm out of here because it's not UV light that will kill me. Oh, I shouldn't say that shot, because I think you can cause cancer. I couldn't tell this. What's up videos? Where's it? Where's it? Oh God, I don't have this time to waste a bag. Anyway, I'll let you know if I find it. If not, for real, I'll see you in the nail salon Going down.
Speaker 2:First floor lobby.
Speaker 1:Hey guys, we outside, god, I'm greeted by this smelling city. I just smell dog food. Oh my God, oh Life we chose. Anyway. I don't know if you can hear the cars on the street, but, yeah, my Nails salon is like a stone's throw away from my apartment. So, and the time is 9, 16. I don't think I'm doing too bad. I'm gonna finish my nails in like one hour. Yeah, see you guys, I had to come back to tell you. See, now, I just saw that someone puked on the side of the street. Jesus Christ, have mercy on me in this city. Okay, crossing the road now.
Speaker 1:It's actually so nice to go out in the morning, like everywhere is so quiet, feels good, but I wish it was just cleaner. Honestly, like New York is not that bad, I just wish it was a cleaner city. Hi, good morning. I'm to do a refill. How much is it? Yeah, 35. 35?. Okay, thank you. Same length, same length, same shape. Yes, yeah, thank you guys. Some back from the nails salon. Well, that that was very fast actually On.
Speaker 1:The time now is what? 10, 21 am. I actually finished like 10 minutes ago, but I decided to stop by the grocery store, which is also in my apartment building to pick up a new plant and that's something I've not done today. I'm supposed to water. I water my plants every Saturday, either Friday, saturday or Sunday, so that's like one week because I'm always at least I remember every weekend to water my plant. Thank you for getting in my mom duties and my plan. Sometimes I won't forget their names because different people named them, but I know one of them is Phoebe, then one is Sandra, I think some very weird names I don't remember because my friend just come on up and like named them.
Speaker 1:But now I've gotten a new palm front. I had an old one but it died before I came back and I don't know if it was the soil or maybe I put too much fertilizer, because I also went to get fertilizer by what I did before I went to Seattle. So I don't know why didn't died. So I threw it out this morning and I said to buy another one. And it cost me. How much is it? 24, 99, plus tax. I know I'm paying tax on plans, so 20. It came to 27 and the place I actually bought my First plant, my monster. That's plus plan, plus pot. It cost me almost $200 to set that plan plus deliver. Everything was like 180 or I think it was actually over 200, but the guy told me that I wanted to buy the palm front, that I wanted to be like 45 dollars and it's just like 30 bucks downstairs. So Maybe that's why the first one died. So now you can see. You see why it's not good to be cheap. Maybe if I just gone there, above 45 and and their soil is usually good, because my plan that got from them now that's almost a year old, is thriving, is still growing, soil is too good. But now I've gone to go and buy this cheap plant again. That that that's when seven plus 27 is what now is over 45 dollars. So if this one dies again, I'm going to just go to them and get my palm front.
Speaker 1:So I remember when I traveled to Florida in March earlier this year for a wedding, um, I realized that I actually like the palm front. It reminds me of Beverly Hills, like we see on TV, california Florida, and I was like I want one in my room to you know beach vibes. When I went to Mexico, to last month too, I was like, yeah, this one needed one in my apartment. So I have a monstera, I have. I have four life plans. I won't fake plants, so I'm happy I got a new one.
Speaker 1:So, yes, next up. And actually I couldn't even find my UV glove, so I did my nails like that. So I ended up being 35. Well, because I didn't have enough cash. I use card and they charge you for credit card 3%. Everything came up to 37 dollars. I tipped her $5, that's 42 dollars. So now the stands are spent almost $70 before, in less than three hours anyway. Such is life. But I'm learning financial discipline because that's how I almost picked up produce from the grocery stand and I was like I don't even have a grocery bag with me anyway, because in New York they don't give bags. You have to buy a bag.
Speaker 1:So now, what next? I'm so hungry, I feel myself shaking, so now I'm going to Go and change, take off my shoes and then start cooking this yam. I don't know if I can wait for my friend. I hope she gets here early enough because I'm really hungry and I don't want to eat biscuits or like. If I snack is going to just affect my eating pattern, and I'm really trying to be more disciplined with a lot of these things. So I want to be able to eat food first. I also feel sleepy, so I might just drink matcha to solve that. Yeah, I will see you guys when my friend gets here. Oh yeah, let's all pray. The yam and egg come down, nice, hi guys, I'm back times 1 pm. So my friend just got here, which was like which is like two hours later than she said she would. So I had to text her that please can I eat, like I'm so hungry I don't know if I'll be able to wait. Well, typical New York train delays anyway. So probably that's why. But yes, I ate a bitch shop, but another, she's here. It's, it's some more.
Speaker 1:And I actually forgot to tell you guys the color of my nail. I did like I ended up still doing something brown, but like burnt orange, ish, rust. But yeah, it looks good she makes. I like it. Everyone doesn't have to like it. I like it, yes, and I was able to call my mom and dad. I returned their calls and now I need to call my sisters. Maybe tomorrow or later today We'll see. Um, okay, let me go and pick her downstairs. Oh, if you guys how she's getting upstairs.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Like your jeans is giving I got my, this is giving you your I know my sister.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I have one smell now yeah, nice Welcome. Thank you, that's my egg right. Yes.
Speaker 1:Oh God, um, where do we start? Are you going to use plastic plater? Oh, thank you, thank you, why? Oh, thank you, my little cute studio.
Speaker 2:I.
Speaker 1:Play it, yeah, and then I have a closet, I think, and I'm happy that, because my content I Try, yes, sometimes, but yes, that is a danger life audio not on this name. Oh yeah, yes, you know here. No, it's our shame back in here this is the hand.
Speaker 2:I'm still living from my box, so I know I mean it's nice.
Speaker 1:Oh, thank you. I mean being here for two years, two months is still very new, so it's fine.
Speaker 2:I believe you from like my.
Speaker 1:Don't come and dish your food anytime you want to say something, to smile, but yet I just replace this plant this morning that died, it died. And then I was just like I went to Nelson I'm not to redo my nails and I was like, yeah, yes, no, random, not random, it was the same one. I bought it from downstairs before, but it died, oh, and then I replaced it with this one. Oh, so by yeah, this is me and you know. I think that my problem was also more than like you know how I've been to other apartments with like the furniture is like black and white and gothic and like I'm like, I'm just gonna make you homey.
Speaker 2:Oh, how did you get to like this stage?
Speaker 1:I've been here. I've been here for almost two years now, so, and most of the things I had them for, I just moved them into this house.
Speaker 2:Oh, like, but like, did you have like a guy in movie painters or something that helped you?
Speaker 1:know, that's why I felt like it was my wedding, because everything was winged. This was bookshelf. That means that Stevie stand, and then what else?
Speaker 2:This is so nice. Oh, thank you, it was this hell.
Speaker 1:Yes, so this was my bookshelf before in my former apartment. Then I told the people that helped me move to hang it up. Oh, okay, that's what they did. Then I went to TJ Maxx and Marshall so anything that now fits into this space and I'll put it inside. That's what happened.
Speaker 2:I like your picture frame.
Speaker 1:I don't have any picture of my family. It should take you a while, don't worry. My mom was around last week and I told her to help me print pictures so I could put them in my frame.
Speaker 2:So that's after my sister got married. Honestly like this is.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the biggest milestone in my life.
Speaker 2:I'm a piece of. Oh, thank you for telling me this show.
Speaker 1:Thank you, thank you. Wait, do you know? I bought a whole yam. As I do it, you'll be crying about this yam. It must not finish. I have that.

Speaker 1:And actually Brooklyn is known for brown floors. I mean, they have brown floors in my own building too.
Speaker 2:But not all they have tiles. I have brown floors too. I don't know if you get this wrong Amazon.
Speaker 1:I have to go for the floor plan. I can do the right size to order I like it. Okay, let's give him a slip over. I love it. Did they keep the couch for you? Are you having a balcony Girl please? I don't want to hear anything. I know it looks like there's a balcony. Yeah, and it looks nice, but it's not a balcony.
Speaker 2:I can't open it.
Speaker 1:I can't open the window. It's not like a full door.
Speaker 2:This one is so new, mine is dirty and I can't change it.
Speaker 1:The building is only 3 years old. It's still pretty much new. You need to sit down. You're going to be tackling your middle. Let me know if you need more hot water. That's the laryx I wanted to See. I need to make it goosley. No, but I'm not going to cook it today. I would have cooked it. I'm still going to be able to split it when I make it. I'll bring it to you.
Speaker 2:I can't even Okay, it depends on my shadow.
Speaker 1:I have to go and get beef. I have fish, I have a goose. If I don't have vegetables, I don't have beef, and I'm really not in that mood.
Speaker 2:Wait let me check my glasses. No, we'll eat jello fries.
Speaker 1:I brought out jello fries that we'll eat for lunch. I'll be dinner, so we can't sleep in here. Yeah, we can.
Speaker 2:I know I'll call the. Let me check my address. Sorry, school from here.
Speaker 1:Okay, so wait, I need to call the painting guys so that they can refund our money or give us painting credits. I want to record this because I need your opinion. You know, recently I was telling myself that this is Now I know why. Why am I always saying I don't want a guy that can't cook or can't clean? Or why do women complain that they have to do it for them and their husbands when they get married? Because I'm already cooking, cleaning. I feel like I'm already doing it, but it's just annoying to know that there are some men that still demand that I would do my own, do your own. Or like we'll have kids in the house and only me that's supposed to do this and I still have to work. Like on Monday, I finish work late and I have to just stand up and make myself food. I still take out the trash, you know. Then imagine having to deal with kids and nobody support him. That's.
Speaker 2:That's definitely it. I think for me, all of my girls just like marry someone that can cook Honestly, Because I like cooking. You know odds, it's only when I'm in the mood Only when I'm in the mood.
Speaker 1:And I can't imagine how mothers have to deal with that and do it whether or not. No, I know it's wickedness and you know there are still men in this day and age that say that they can't. That's the woman's contribution. Maybe she's the wrong man. She'll do that not my type of men, so she won't be focusing on that, because it can't only I beg, I beg, although there's also the argument that they work. It doesn't even hold water because they work.
Speaker 2:I didn't raise it. They even post babies out of their stomach. Exactly I can feel like generally, as married couple, women still do a lot of things.
Speaker 1:That's what I feel.
Speaker 2:For God's sake, raising children. That's what I feel. That's what I feel now.
Speaker 1:I don't really mean this year too, but I say now that I'm open to not having kids. I don't know how much I'm meaning it, but then I really try to strip away the expectation or really find out. Why Do I really think he gives me fulfillment? Or is it because my parents expect me to? Or is it just because life is in a stage of life?
Speaker 2:motherhood is a stage that you should also go through.
Speaker 1:So I'm like do I really have to go through that stage?
Speaker 2:Because I feel like I haven't taken it on myself.
Speaker 1:Exactly. Do you know? When I saw these videos on Instagram of how babies would be eating food and falling out of their mouth, I'm like who's going to clean that I'm not cleaning the house and you can't say I'm better than Nani there's no guarantee. Of course I do.
Speaker 2:So you didn't listen to the podcast. The.
Speaker 1:Nani podcast. I did listen to that one To where even the baby was not close to the mom anymore. No, that one. Of course that is a byproduct of how she has those ones, even the recent one. She also talked about how some of those moms are feeling pressured. That you know. You see all these videos of moms packing banana. They will pack the main meal, pack fruits, chocolate, and then one of them was talking about how she feels so under pressure she doesn't feel like she can keep up and I think Jella was telling her that she doesn't have to that she should do what she can do.
Speaker 1:Why was it like this?
Speaker 2:I want to say to Dima Okay, the name of her dress, her engagement to the end.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and I'm probably just saying that she has come before but I haven't listened to her. When did you start listening to?
Speaker 1:them 20,. When I moved, 10, 20.
Speaker 2:Actually, I think, half of the panel.
Speaker 1:So I think I started listening to podcasts yeah, Jesus and Jella. For the first podcast I started listening to Yvonne Ogie and Lovie a giant news in the audience, Yvonne Ogie she had a dress, yes, and a comedian. She's the first podcast I started listening to and then I found I said what I said. Then I also liked Timmy Sands.
Speaker 2:Then also I started listening to Toca Moments. You know, is it Timmy T Timmy.
Speaker 1:T. Yes, so I was talking about my own. This guy is actually crazy. He's actually so funny when you start saying you know, I'm a dickiness. I'm like wow, okay, sure, let me bring my food and come and eat this, madame Koei, koei's dough Yvonne.
Speaker 2:I didn't say what did you say? What episode are you in? How many episodes are there? Because one episode is almost two hours.
Speaker 1:Let me see First of all. I like that they are talking about body in school.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's just one episode. Why do you like that?
Speaker 1:Why didn't they just make it a movie? Why did they put it in series?
Speaker 2:Okay, if it's one that we can finish it today. I went to.
Speaker 1:Graspman's podcast.
Speaker 2:What about you?
Speaker 1:Meflah, is it Legos when?
Speaker 2:Oh, the name is almost similar to this after they wait, so do you actually believe in? So, like a lot of people said, they heard like you can see girls or still they'll be sleeping and you can actually hear like four steps. Yeah, we all had that. But I also saw Bush baby. There was a time. Stop it, I'm not joking, no, I just.
Speaker 1:But they don't kill a bee because, they're killing, but I'm I know I don't think those people actually came, no, but like how would you see which babies a? Very not remote, was it?
Speaker 2:was a very Bush baby is it actually?
Speaker 1:I used to cry yes, so like, so. He told me that I cover my son to my house. It's not by country, this demons they don't know about, they don't know about us. That's even the one that they were. They support babies. I was like oh, this Nigeria.
Speaker 2:There was this part flag guy. It would always come to a still in the night, so between the hours of one and four, and it would come and be touching it was flag girls breasts. No, I wouldn't, you can, and then you know I.
Speaker 1:Know that she's been touched. Yes, she knows. Everybody will now run. I think he's an actual person.
Speaker 2:Yes, I'm saying to the end of like the term and I know it later to the major, because I was stopping, for that was Terrorizing also. Like three weeks.
Speaker 1:Oh, so it's nice spirit. It was a nice spirit Well like. My school. How was he entering? How was he entering the girls? Oh yeah, and I say we don't know like he always like breaks it.
Speaker 2:So in our study we're gonna tell you that I was like all the reasons. I was because, oh, it's nice, because he was asking his sister out imagine I'm a younger sister and because she are not accepting is whatever.
Speaker 1:He's my, he's a man, he's not like to rise in me for it?
Speaker 2:No, that's not me.
Speaker 1:No, okay, no, I know why some parents actually he's putting school no yeah, I went to Christian one.
Speaker 2:I was go for fellowship. I was a tight spot.
Speaker 1:I was horrible. My goodness Some is. This story is a real to our next day. Yeah, crazy being.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I'm Okay, but I think they had a full step of people inside of a sleeping beside the window. You can actually hear that was there go that big shot.
Speaker 1:I'm going to call any action. It's called the spitting people. Nice, almost 33 to a bitch and then we're canceling. It's about time in 140 pm. Okay, no, I came. I come from a large from like no one went. When I'm cooking, when it's for were seven, sometimes my grandma might be around, cousins might be around.
Speaker 2:So I didn't want to cook small food.
Speaker 1:I'm keeping in the fridge what I don't know. You know that in black women, in short, in black people generally, we don't know how we don't really have high absorption for my family.
Speaker 1:And then we're not able to absorb vitamin D. What does that mean? From the song? Oh, because I think it's mainly not something. And then, during winter seasons, we get lower levels of vitamin D. It affects me, sure, if you start, if you start experiencing extreme fatigue. Talk to your doctor. Sure, but they told me that that was why I'm experiencing extreme fatigue now. My vitamin D levels were low and, of course, there's no song, so they had to prescribe.
Speaker 2:Vitamin D.
Speaker 1:Also take. I is different, it's different. Not everybody has low iron. So there's also the vitamin D. I know it's crazy the fragrance I got from, but I'm body works and we're supposed to go shopping after our painting. Oh yeah, maybe we can try. Yeah, we can go, yeah, maybe we can try. Maybe we're still in New York together, so it's okay. Oh God, yes, what are?
Speaker 2:you doing.
Speaker 1:Carashica movies. That's crazy. We don't close your eyes when you see it.
Speaker 2:I think that's in front of it.
Speaker 1:I've never heard that someone likes horror movies.
Speaker 2:That's hilarious, but you're about English, no I your brown movies are scary movies.
Speaker 1:I mean, I used to watch some of my grandma, but the ones that we run with used to watch is man love woman, man guilt woman. Maybe the woman is from a poor family. So much for all those nonsense and how, like, if you do bad, what goes around, comes around this type of your mom, this crazy, and for the fact that you already said you've experienced it I used to watch it. That's crazy.
Speaker 2:I think I stopped.
Speaker 1:Okay, yeah, I'm here, I'm here, I'm actually here, so it's fine. Yeah, we can continue from there.
Speaker 2:I got. You know who is that the.
Speaker 1:So you got into all the all this cause, you got into a top 15. That's crazy, oh congrats.
Speaker 2:Yeah, now I'm paying you like Caleb paint me like up to now, like I still breathe them. I want to like, maybe like you.
Speaker 1:Even it's gonna actually give me funding, but I use my funding from the other school that got into to bagging for this and they gave me. Did you try rising back a second time? You take a sister.
Speaker 2:Maybe they are still giving all the funding out like he's crazy and I can literally everybody that knew me then like Exactly. I see enough.
Speaker 1:Is not a lot. Yeah, that's how it is actually not, and I think everyone I mean you are, it's more like some black upstate they do. Yeah, because you know that when I was a criminal too, I won't join the song they pulled me into their Exactly board through the African executive board. Yeah, so that's how? Because I didn't have, even in my own class at first, only three African, I think, in the class of 90, only two African girls and then three other African-Americans or so, a One guy. Yeah, right, d it's not as diverse as it seems. I'm sorry, bob is in class for you.
Speaker 2:I yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I choose to leave. I know I'm always like no, you choose to come here. Nobody, nobody should be from Nigeria. Even when I left, the things were never so bad. Maybe I'll serve left eventually, but Well now honestly.
Speaker 2:I think I'm on a sport, and I'm at a point where and also I think I'm getting familiar with black Americans because even the black community, there we are small in my class of.
Speaker 1:Yeah, how large is your class? Troy or 10%. They were mostly Indians and Asians.
Speaker 2:Asians are like. I think they said New York, ny is known for Asians, like they have a lot of Asians which means like. Are these for them? They have more than white people.
Speaker 1:Yes, oh my god, even in Akron there was a joke that it is a predominantly white and Asian institution. Not just, yeah, there might be a lot too, but I heard almost of them to end up going back home at the end of it. So the Chinese ones, chinese people, I don't know how to treat these, though.
Speaker 2:And they didn't even collect clothes, though.
Speaker 1:Yes, oh, is that what they call? You don't know? The crazy rich people. Yeah, I heard them say. I heard them saying they don't use clothes. They are the ones that wear. This is obviously stereotyping. This is what people say, like they don't want to be dirty. Sneakers, be clothes Like they look, like they don't have money in class. They do not see Nigerians all of us that is us. We are only there by intuition when we are buffing up to class, wearing the best clothes.
Speaker 2:I don't know Now, fashion will always be the same. Yeah, I was just trying to ask sorry, like maybe, like at the end of the day it was really good or something. And like sorry, what's that?
Speaker 1:Why do I stop? Is it your head? That's funny, Interesting it's for international. I'll just remind you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, from anywhere in the world.
Speaker 1:Why do I have to use the?
Speaker 2:US actually. But like they have to provide loans, the US loan provider or the ones that have the worst loans like anyone, so why do I?
Speaker 1:have to use the.
Speaker 2:US, like if you have set in a month of scholarship, I think.
Speaker 1:I'll give you.
Speaker 2:I'm expressing loan and someone like she came here and they're quite a.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I can imagine, I can imagine, but you, you have to switch context, switching a lot. What's the concept when you have to behave differently with a certain group of people?
Speaker 2:No, Funny how, right now, I feel like I'm more myself with equity, black, black red, I'm so happy like I don't even have to like change the tone of my voice. I have to like switch if you do. It was before like I used to feel somehow like if I guys would reprim myself.
Speaker 1:What did you say? I told kind of me. Sometimes I have to pick myself. Sometimes I realize that I'm also clear, you know, but maybe I'm speaking too fast. I speak fast. And I still hear them right. Sometimes it feels like an excuse.
Speaker 2:I speak fast. I'm like this with most big braids.
Speaker 1:I know Like, are you kidding me? I know I might be someone who told me that, sorry, I would like to, but trying to imply that my English is not as polished. That's why he couldn't hear me. I think I responded saying no, I don't agree. I grew up in a country that English was almost an English speaking country and to me, in my opinion, english is my first language. Even if you're a boy, I do grow up speaking English. That's what I can say. I'm not a boy, so maybe you might just have an issue understand my accent, but I think my.
Speaker 1:English is perfectly okay.
Speaker 2:And the person I said oh sorry.
Speaker 1:Oh, english is your first language in Nigeria. Yes, people are asking me that also. Do you guys speak Nigerian? I'm like, no, we speak English. I know, I know. I mean, if I grew up speaking Europe, maybe I would be able to tell you oh, I did this and then English later, but I don't have that experience, and then I will go for the real world and like country research, because I don't think you know like China now they speak. Chinese.
Speaker 2:Japanese, japanese, korean whatever that word is what like. How did they not be asking what language did you speak? Did?
Speaker 1:you choose to not actually google all of these things.
Speaker 2:It's just ignorance. Exactly what did you say? Well, I told someone even possible.
Speaker 1:You know how people get angry when they are like are they animals? Are they monkeys swimming in your country? And I realize that it's not an offensive question to East Africans, because some of them who live close to the safaris in Kenya and Nairobi, uganda, maybe they have zoos or like resorts of safaris near their houses, but exactly a bio is not sitting there just walking on the road you get. But actually with the kind of that I find it very rude actually.
Speaker 2:I think my first and second part. The last day someone said the guy really came to sit down beside me. I was like, oh, I heard you have a mind-gear. I said yes. I was even thinking like you really want this. Like you know, you call me that very equestrian in my angle of career.
Speaker 2:I was like, only for him to see I don't have to say something, but I don't know how to say. I'm like talking my head on. I said I was thinking what the book was about Answers. I said, oh, I heard the Eskimo, the Eskimo, very low. I'm like sorry, where are you from? The Eskimo, the US, the Eskimo, they're still in my friends' home. That's right.
Speaker 1:You're right, people do have. Yeah, actually no, americans also don't have. I've been ahead of the term Nigerian Prince, like he's a thing, apparently Even in Blackish. They showed it. I've never seen Blackish. I've not seen it in Sioux and Fondre Leves. They showed it as part of the script. I was like, wow, is it this bad that?
Speaker 2:Yes, come on, it's everywhere. So, like I don't know, it's done.
Speaker 1:No, I think yeah, yes, there are, but I think Nigerians are really bad. I think he's really bad. I think we would not do it. I don't know why. Yahu Boi is the whole profession in Nigeria. Well, I think it's really bad. I think it's really bad. Mostly All the Kashaf songs, bank of America, these guys, how, I imagine. I just feel like for those things to even exist in songs and stories and movies, it must be a lot, and they're just trying to talk about it or tell us a small part of the story. But I don't know, sha, I mean, yeah, but that's why would you ask me that? Like, are you assuming?
Speaker 2:I'm a scammer. I could even know me, and that's like, first of all, I just don't know everything else about that it can be related to actually. My economy was very, very, very, very bad, I know, it can be like that.
Speaker 1:When I'm sometimes I meet up with Americans, I try to ask them about slavery, but I not that I say to you right, it might be offensive.
Speaker 2:No, because we're actually going through slavery now.
Speaker 1:How Slave?
Speaker 2:trade.
Speaker 1:Our ancestors. Yeah, our ancestors, so I think it's still very relatable.
Speaker 2:I think it's still very relatable. That's a scamming, because how did all like Africans it was also once the way it was like migrants that, like Europeans, took along with them. That's why they're in Africa. Yeah, I think, as an African, our ancestors probably did this slavery. We have like people called they sold.
Speaker 1:They sold people illegally.
Speaker 2:Exactly, they sold people Exactly, even in all the. Okay, I don't know if we are probably the worst laborers. Yeah, I feel like yeah. So, anyways, if there are things I feel like I can't read on my own, I'll definitely read on my own and ask people, because I don't want people to not feel a type of way because I'm like asking them a question and I don't want them to just like check or go go.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this scamming one, I can see how to be honest. Sure, when it's not, you're right, it's not relatable to everyone. Okay, no, I have. They have used my page to scam someone before, actually. Yes, yes, yes, let them. She's your search right here. Yeah, they used my picture to scollet money from her once.
Speaker 2:How did she reach out to you?
Speaker 1:She did, though In fact she couldn't even get my number because it was a fake number. Yeah, the person sent I mean school, I use it with money and I stopped on Instagram, so I'm used to the price. She didn't even text me there to confirm if it was me. I think she didn't just know actually, I think she just felt like wow, if this person asked me, then I must be serious. What did you say? She actually said I know she's a business owner.
Speaker 1:She now told my sister she's my sister. She now told that she's trying to get to me. She now sent my search screenshots of the image. I look over this person's hand, that's just okay after she has sent money. So I think I think she didn't kick in until after she has sent money and the person had blocked her and they used my picture. That's why a lot of people think there is some internal that knows that we know each other. That's the sense.
Speaker 2:What platform?
Speaker 1:What's up? What's up there? But you hear that they were cloning people's accounts and if you saw it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's happened to my account too, and I don't feel like it happened to me because nothing happened to my phone or my number. So it's that the person probably knows that has drawn a connection between and then they were cloning, making it look like because they never had my number in first. I don't know if she could go and double check that this is her number or maybe the app. I don't know. I don't know. I was always in school myself, like even when I heard I didn't have that money sent back to her that time I was like I don't send.
Speaker 1:Maybe I should let her send it now, but I can't send it, maybe not. And then I was like like there was no way I could do it I think how much was that and every other, because I think I had written it to my friends to send me money, so that because I was earning like almost $200, like I would walk, I think it was $15 an hour. So whatever I had was enough. My grocery is not $100. And I wasn't buying clothes, because it's only so that I used to wear upstates. And then, honestly, I don't even know how I was surviving, how I was surviving and trying to live my best life, and do you?
Speaker 2:know that Konew was up to you, like I knew like let's be in New York, so this is me. She covered that and I put all the schools. Konew was up to my number one, Really. Yeah, when I started thinking about business school. I would just bring Konew, because I was trying to bring Konew just because I was very too.
Speaker 1:Yes, yeah, I like Konew just much, yeah, I like Konew One day.
Speaker 2:I said like I started school that day and I found out oh, I'm way too good for that to come out of New York. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you're right, I was upstate, I'm not in the city. Yeah, you're right, even me too, I didn't do enough. I mean I did, I knew what it was, but, like I said, you know, I don't really if I let all this things stop me too much and I'd watch YouTube videos. People that were there said that doesn't mom poplar girl, katie something is Katie Trist or Katie something. She's very popular on YouTube for going to Cornell, but she was undergrad. In short, she has story.
Speaker 1:It was because of I never I didn't find grass students on YouTube. That's part of what made me want to start my podcast. But I was like I want to do YouTube. I can't. I don't think I have. I feel a bit too camera shy for that. I was like, okay, but I think I might be more comfortable doing audio. And that was actually how I heard I would start for other grass students or looking to come. But yeah, that was. I was just like I don't care if I'm, even though I'm going to the Bush or not, I can't be lying here, I would be fine. It was. It was actually nice. Sometimes I miss it. It was. It was very sub-over, you know, it's very calm, it's a town life. It's, and it's what they call the students. It's a school city. There's something they call it Like, like even Boston College Town. Thank you, the College Town. Yeah, yes, the College Town, like even Boston to the College Town.
Speaker 2:I miss to the Park in Cornell.
Speaker 1:Itacar College. That's all Like. Once school is out of session, everything dries up, like even when I remember during Christmas I had to leave. During Thanksgiving, I always had to leave because there was nothing there Besides maybe church, and then I used to go for church events. There are restaurants there, but it's like takeout. There are also places you can go there to sit, but if you like eating out, you can probably finish eating out at all the restaurants they take out in one year. No, it's true, but it's too cool. And then in the Netherlands that way, there we used to have a lot of house parties. That's how I actually sit there. Oh God, thank you for coming. I appreciate it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, take so well. Food was nice. I'm pretty Sweet. Thank you, I'm very angry. I had a lot of great past moments.
Speaker 1:At dinner I was like I will pop, I see you soon. You know, every time my friends actually come to see me, they will tell me that I will overfeed them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it feels good now. I wish I would like you.
Speaker 1:Lord, I'm just, I'm coming to your house.
Speaker 2:Yeah, do you have rubber? Rubber or like a small bag? Yeah, I don't have it.
Speaker 1:Where's black? Even your phone stands out. Ha, I love it. Where is it?
Speaker 2:Oh, triple time, see my phone stand out. I have my blender. I have been blinded to pepper, that's why I haven't cooked, so you don't know like how blinded are we to blind pepper?
Speaker 1:And you have to return it.
Speaker 2:It's more than 30 days already. I didn't realize it on the way. Oh my God, I'm sorry, hi guys.
Speaker 1:So my friend just left, the time is 6.30pm today and my day has finally come to an end. Oh my God, I thought this vlog would never end, but yes, we did. We definitely had a good time. Of course, I felt like it would be weird to have recorded her saying thank you and bye and everything, but you know. But yeah, we had a nice time. We chatted about her.
Speaker 1:I was even wondering if she liked to turn this into an official episode and like ask about her embage, and I was like no, the focus for today is a day in the life. I mean, we just we still just did normally and I think I was able to capture some parts of it. You know, until the tea or the juice goes sweeter, because we also had to catch up on like a lot of mutual friends that we knew and, of course, there's always juice from back from college days and from university days. Anyway, it was a nice time. She even slept. I didn't sleep because if I slept I wouldn't be able to sleep again. So I was like, okay, I'm just going to keep my sleep. So I think I'll be going to bed in another two hours. I'm also trying to like force, shift my sleeping pattern back to regular hours since I came back from Seattle, so I probably watch TV to sleep off. I had some writing and some work to do, but if I do anything now with the screen like my eyes are going to be paining me because I also feel stressed a bit. But it was a good day. I think I had enough Yemen egg to cover for lunch and dinner, so I might just have ice cream instead of having a full meal. I brought our Jollofrest to eat before, but I might just put it back and eat it tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Now the million dollar question is if I'm going to be able to make it to church tomorrow morning. Plan is to all stream my church from Nigeria. Whichever way, whichever happens, god still loves me, I still love God, I still love God and that's all that matters. But, yeah, I'm really trying to stay committed to the faith and His people. But, yeah, I hope you also had a wonderful weekend If you listen to this in your new week. I hope you're having a great week and I hope you have many, many good days ahead.
