Blog Post: StReSs BaLLs by @MrOdada

As at the first time I wrote this piece a few months back I was passing through a lot of stress and I felt it was induced by emotions because my side kick/lover and best friend was away on vacation in England; maybe it was because I was getting none *straight face* ...maybe...a few months down the line it only made sense that I should piece this together again, but only this time "I don't need sex, the government f_cks me everyday"...I present to you my StReSs BaLls.

In no particular order though ok #scratchthat I'd tell it from where it hurts the most to the least *scratches head* let me just start from the beginning I decided to name this post "StReSs BaLlSs" well in actual fact the stress is *clutching balls* making me drained physically and even the drinking doesn't help anything; if nothing at all I guess it adds up to being Stressed Out!!

WORK[Stress]:

Getting up every week-day at 4.35am must be probably be the hardest part of daily routine,oh yes because trying to put up a 'fake smile' while attending to customers/yelling at

the top of my voice to my surbodinates to get things done at a desired turn over time while meeting customers demands/running through 3 floors (up&down) in clear cut office shoes/ having to be at 3points in the same time/dealing with my fist-clenched bosses and driving through 2hours of traffic when I close at 6pm fatigued and hungry shouldn't be hard right? That must be the fun part *straight face* so, I stick with my initial observation that waking up at 4.35am every day is still the hardest part!

SCHOOL[Stress]:

Lord knows that if I was born in the united states I would have probably been writing lyrics for various R&B artist or find my way to hollywood to pur...*slaps self back to reality* sorry, I'm Nigerian and to make things worse (for the obvious reasons) hail from Ekiti state where as a PhD holder you don't get more than a pat on the back for your achievements *scoffs*. That's how my sojourn to the university of Lagos started a little over 2 years ago with dexterity/determination and an open mind only to be met with pompous proffessors that come to show off their government positions/how many published books the have written and we all must buy/how pathetic we all look (beat and hungry from work)/how they have to fly out for 2weeks to attend to a state sponsored research (so in short we are on-our-own)...don't get me wrong,it would all have been worth the time/money & resources expended but my own idea of an MBA degree is not when you have classes between 6-8pm everyday and you leave the office at 6pm drive through traffic and only get to sign the attendance because you got there at 8.05pm and lectures ended 10minutes ago!

RELATIONSHIP [Stress]:

*Error ! No file found*...but I'd leave you with a quote by Samuel Butler from the Note Books; "Is life worth living? This is a question for an embryo, not for a man. To live is like love,all reason is against it and all healthy instinct for it...so choose wether to live in love or die in it" *moving on*

HOME [Stress]:

Here's a simple illustration;

"Untop of a mountain 40ft high,
I shot my PURITO with a black
Rubber band;
Some said it was silly,some said
it was wise...
I couldn't have missed it,
It was 40ft wide!
Oooh..Oooh Sugar & Spice!!
Well let's just say 5yrs gone by and I'm still searching for that PURITO...*sighs*

Government [StreSs]:

To quote an excerpt from the Joint Action Front (JAF) of NLC/TUC and civil Society on reversal of fuel subsidy; "...a cowardly Government who told us it is unable to deliver the basic social services like good roads,electricity supply,medi-care and standard educational fascilities to the Nigerian people simply because of a cabal /cartel which it is too scared to touch or arrest. This prodigous regime that sqandered N1.4trillion of our money on its financiers through phony subsidy 'arrangee' has perfected the art of unleashing hardship and terror on Nigerians by delievering scandalous tuition fees in schools, escalating electricity tariff,high cost of living and the worlds most expensive vehicle number plate..." Stop! Stop!! Stop!!! That's enough already *real tears* if I'm going to raise my unborn children in this country then there's no way I'l sit down and watch things deteriorate. Like I tweeted the other day they (NLC) started an industrial Nationwide strike action for the reversal of #Subsidyremoval, we (the masses) started a protest for the Government to end corruption and curb Government excesses...#EnoughIsEnough.

Scandal Molly Wei and Dharum Ravi From Rocks Rutgers

Dharun Ravi, of Plainsboro, and Molly Wei, of Princeton, both 18, each face two counts of invasion of privacy for secretly placing a camera in another 18-year-old student's dorm room and livestreaming that student's sexual encounter on the Internet.

Authorities say Ravi faces another two counts of invasion of privacy for allegedly trying to use the hidden camera to tape the same victim in a previous encounter two days before the second one hit the web.

Wei surrendered to campus cops in New Brunswick on Monday and was released on her own recognizance. Ravi turned himself in Tuesday and was released on $25,000 bail.

Asher Brown, Billy Lucas, and Seth Walsh were three teens this month that all killed themselves because of high school bullying. In each case, the victims allegedly alerted school officials who did nothing about it.

Last night, Anderson Cooper focused on an unusual case of bullying, Andrew Shirvell, an attorney with the Michigan Attorney General’s Office. Shirvell has set up a website to mock the student assembly president at the University of Michigan, Chris Armstrong.

And while news only knows, yet, of two instances directed at Tyler Clemente while at Rutgers, two was enough for the 18 year old. Tyler killed himself less than 24 hours after Ravi and Wei were released from custody.

It wasn't immediately clear where or how the live feed was broadcast, and investigators took strict precautions to protect the identity of the victim. But on his Twitter feed, Ravi vaguely refers to an internet instant messaging service that includes live video streams called iChat, according to NJ.com.

"Roommate asked for room again. Its happening again. People with iChat don't you dare video chat me from 930 to 12," NJ.com reports Ravi posted Sept. 22, the day after cops say he tried to livestream, for the second time, one of the victim's sexual encounters. The website reports Ravi's Twitter page, which apparently has been taken down, has 150 followers.

A lawyer for Ravi declined requests for comment. It wasn't immediately clear if Wei, a first year pharmacy student at Rutgers' Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy, had an attorney.

Rutgers spokeswoman Sandra Lanman said the college is taking the situation seriously.

"The university takes these matters seriously and has policies to deal with student behavior," Lanman said in a statement.

According to New Jersey law, illegally collecting or viewing images showing sexual contact involving another individual without that individual's consent is a fourth-degree crime. It's a third-degree crime to transmit or distribute such images. The penalty for the latter offense carries a possible prison term of up to five years.
