MY RANDOM RAMBLINGS

Yes I KNOW...Ive been M.I.A for the past months...BUT with very good reason though I promise :) So today I feel inspired enough to break my routine and write a blog post! Im sure alot of you have already heard about the successful Camer Couture event,if you haven't click here for a recap. Cameroonians are starting to do it BIG, so do your part and become part of this new phenomenon. Me is thinking a trip to Cameroon is already due...Its been almost a year already without real Eru...Lets just say im starting to become a fish out of water. tsk tsk tsk...In my mind im waiting for someone to just swoop down and say "My dear Phebe I think you are an amazing person, allow me to take you to Camer this Dec, all expense paid" lol only in my dreams I know...Anyhow est-ce que cinderela kind of stuff even exists...Nchwet. Hold that thought

I just saw this Pic about Stevie Wonder in Africa, na Cameroon ei go so?? hm Bamenda people na for here wuna head go big pass! ei don put wuna for map :D













You know, sometimes I surprise even myself with some of the weird things I think of...leading to a number of people calling me crazy, but the GOOD kinda crazy! lol You know how people have a catch phrase at the end of their writings like eg. "Stay sweet(Dulce Camer)" or SOMETHING. So I was just thinking what if I adopted that and started signing out as "Fufu&Eru" why not, right? :D

oK I stop here.
Have a beautiful Week
~Fufu&Eru~

PAPA JO JACKSON: MOURNING FATHER??

Yes, I know...Ive been M.I.A for the past month and a half. But with good reason though :). Well ALOT has happened since then...The biggest one being the passing away of Mr. Mj my very good buddy...well...maybe not. But it certainly was a big shock to the world...talk about random. I predict his funeral etc..will be bigger than anything ever witnessed...bigger than Princes Di's...well that's if his familia decides to keep it a private affair. But other than that...Papa Jackson really makes my skin crawwl...Literally! I missed his appearance interview at the BET awards but went online to watch it...expecting to see a more sober father whose SON had just died...and all I see is some arrogant old man talking about "Yes the world has lost a superstar..." In fact Ill put up the video so you guys can see for yourselves..I know people grieve differently, but seriously is this man grieving?? But anyhow who am I to judge...I still think he could have been a better Papa to MJ...Period
A comment I came across that couldn't have expressed what I want to say any better!



"....Why are people saying they don't like what Micheal did or he had a lot of demons and other ******. The problem wasn't with Micheal it was with this ****** world that destroys everything good and decent. just like lady Di. We treat people like objects and celebrate them then drag their name through dirt if we think they're different. the public killed Micheal made him vulnerable and the ****** disgusting media gave lots of ammunition...."

That's the world we live in, American society and media DISGUSTS me! It thrives on so much gossip. It uplifts people, celebrates them, and the next minute probing, spreading rumors and destroying! Spend a minute one day watching E! TMZ or EVEN CNN despicable! I can't even start to express my abject hatred no words would ever do it justice

I MISS CAMEROON :(




Five months and counting...I can do it...I can do it...I CAN do it....That's how long Ive been back from the Cameroun...I miss it muchisimo....well I take that back its not true...What I miss most is the food & the Fam! I remember EVERY morning, my Aunt will feed me Fufu and Eru...MORNING, AFTERNOON, EVENING! no joke. The first few days of my arrival, my stomach was still in American mode of eating...little quantities of food...so when she would give me much food, I always refused...Fast forward to about 3weeks into my stay...and I was groping at ANYTHING I could get my hand on :D Even she herself was surprised at my appetite...well that's what REAL Eru WITHOUT tomatoes does to you!



On a good note, I cured myself from my Nyamangoro/snail love relationship...How did I do this? By eating about 10 sticks ( 5per stick) at a go one morning...this made me loose my want for it FAST! matter of fact, just the thought of it nauseates me now.

What else do I miss...Going to the market! I loved going to the market. I remember when I was younger and still in Camer. During holidays we would go to Limbe...then stop over in Mutengene...On Saturdays, we kids usually helped out my Aunty at her stall in Mutengene market. We would each have our own buckets of beans on our heads walking about and selling...who would sell the most.... and of course..I ALWAYS did :D I think that's were I got my business love from!

Not to forget the family! lol My Cousins, all guys...those criminals lol, I miss them all! They pretty much entertained me. Every nook and cranny they knew! Mutengene pikin dem baaad lol Infact Mutenegene as a whole don spoil, you can easily pick out a stranger by the look of fear on their faces! but nothing beats that city...our crazy compound...the man with the cutlass threatening to cut us on Christmas day...the stones flying in the air...the Cousins running into the house and kitchen..then running out with their own cutlass, sticks and knives to scare him...haha what a sight to behold!! hahaha But I love it...Cameroon is wonderful...trust me...now I just need someone to pay half my flight there...this time strictly on Business of course :D...any takers? :)
