Although I'm not anonymous, I reckon some of you don't know me, so I'll be doing a lil intro.
My name is Bisodun, unique right? I know........ And of course it keeps the questions coming, "why Bisodun, shouldn't it be Biodun?" "when were you born?" Okay so those questions are kinda allowed but..... Some questions are just so hilarious. A couple of people have asked if Bisodun is the female version of Biodun, lol!. At the end of the day, I smile whenever people gush about how unique my name is. Also, some people ask how my parents came up with the name. You want to know? Please don't laugh..... So one day, I was feeling rather inquisitive, I asked my mother why they named me "Bisodun". She said " I'll be honest but don't take offense o!. She said the truth was that after having three "pikins" before me, they had run out of names! My jaw dropped, It couldn't be! She continued "but thank God it was sallah day(islamic festival) so it was very easy to name you "something". I didn't know whether to laugh or cry after her confession. Oh well.... That's the story behind my name!
I am a Nigerian-based lawyer with a passion for writing and fashion. I've been writing since I was 5. Back then, I would scribble down short stories on a note book, draw images and color them. I've always had a thing for writing which is why I've opted to start my own blog.
So what's my blog about? It's basically a collection of my intrepid thoughts. You see, i'm a thinker, when I'm not talking, i'm thinking. I'm also very observant. I get a lot of inspiration from events happening around me and I simply put them in writing. For me, this blog is an avenue to ask questions about the lil things that bother me, I'm a learner!.
My aim is to create an atmosphere for people from different works of life to have sincere chat sessions about different pressing issues in our society and maybe being unidentified would make it a lot easier for you to air your views. It's amazing how knowledgeable people are, please don't keep all that information to yourself, do share!
Stay tuned for more about me!!!!

Love your post as usual, but this one's clearly different cos its quite personal. Being that im not yoruba, il have to ask what is the meaning of your name 'Bisodun' and what distinguishes it from the name 'Biodun'? bless..Obk.
ReplyDeleteThanks Hun. There's no diffrence between Bisodun and Biodun, the only difference is the 's' actually,lol! They have the same meaning which is "born during a festival" it's usually given to children born during festive periods such as Christmas, easter and salllah(Islamic festival) . Do u have names like this in your ethnic group?
