TOP TEN NEWS THAT BROKE THE INTERNET IN 2014

 It's that time of the year again when we all do some shoppings, distribute hampers, receive gifts and await Santa, but while we do that, let's take you back on a few gists, news or maybe memes that almost broke the internet in 2014.

10. Sexy Mugshot Guy

Jeremy Meeks broke hearts and the law in 2014. The 30-year-old convict had the Internet pining for bad boys when the Stockton Police Department posted his mugshot on Facebook in June. The photo definitely broke the internet when ladies wanted to bail him just cos he already stole their hearts too. The photo also inspired the #FelonCrushFriday and head shakes from mothers everywhere.

9. Suarez - The Biter

Uruguayan forward Luis Suarez took a bite out of the World Cup - and the Italian player, Giorgio Chiellini. With less than 12 minutes of time left on the clock in a tied game, Suarez tried to gain an advantage by locking down, teeth first on Chiellini's shoulder. This definitely had him being tested and results were negative for rabies, but positive for meme-ability.

SHORT STORY: I AM NOT MY SKIN

 By ANGELA NKAMERE
       “I am Sandra and I am beautiful”, “I am Sandra and I am drop dead gorgeous”, “I am Sandra and I am a diva, my body is perfect, my mind is right and I am about to marry the most handsome man in the world”, I said to myself admiring my refection in the mirror, I had changed, blossomed into a more confident, beautiful woman. I turned to my side inspecting my full behind. Damn I looked good. Mr Jite you are in for it, you wanted a hot wife and now you’ve gotten yourself a bombshell! White suited me, in fact everything suited me, I ran my palm through the silhouetted –ball gown styled wedding dress I had on, the sequencing was beautiful, who ever thought Cinderella’s ball gown came in a size 16? My mind flooded with mixed emotions, I was so happy; overwhelmed was a more appropriate description for what I felt at that moment, joy mixed with fear, fear not because I was afraid he wouldn’t go through with it but fear because I had finally gotten what I always wanted, happiness but would I be able to handle it? I feared I would explode from too much joy or trip on my wedding gown while hurrying down the aisle. Wouldn’t that be something, I would fall flat on my face and everyone would laugh, I chuckled at the thought as I whirled myself around, it would be more of a comic relief than an embarrassment; I would stand up laugh and continue on my way. All that mattered was being he’s wife. MRS SANDRA OMO, wife of MR JITE OMO. I nearly shrieked, the thought of it alone sent me to the highest of clouds and back again. It wasn’t always like this, my joy that is...

BEAUTY: GET THE LOOK

                               

By THONIA IDEGWU

So I am going to teach you how to upgrade from a hyper-pigmented, Uneven complexioned, unequal brow, black spotted, pale looking face to this really gorgeous diva as shown in the picture above. I really wish i could do a video on how to get this look, but I will try my best to describe as vividly as possible. 

Before we begin on how I was able to pull this look together, kindly scroll down to "How To Get A Make-up Friendly Face" somewhere on this blog, as that is a basic of make-up application - the face must be make-up friendly/ready.

To begin: 

LET’S TALK: EQUAL RIGHTS OR WOMEN'S RIGHT???

By ANTHONIA IDEGWU

It is baffling how when I sit to watch the news, I see educated Nigerian women, in power, fighting for equal rights for the Nigerian woman to the Nigerian man, all under the guise of being stripped of any right by our African culture (or in this case, Nigerian culture). Let me stress this again, they are EDUCATED women!

Random ‘Mary Scott’ Thoughts

By MARY SCOTT

Here’s something I saw on my way out today. It got me thinking and I thought to share with you guys...

So I sight this young girl wearing a blue top; something was written on it and, yeah, being a ‘reading’ freak and all, I couldn’t resist the temptation to read what was written on it. Now, we’re all familiar with the latest trend in fashion, as per tops. I’m talking about the various messages printed on tops these days; “Touch my soul, not my body”, “No romance without finance”, “Call my name”… the list is endless. Some are outrightly disgusting and suggestive that you wonder how a sane person could put it on.

4 Steps To Creating A Meaningful Relationship.

By Victor Akran

It is very easy to claim you are in love with someone. But the big question is are you really in love?  A lot of people claim they have fallen in love and at the slightest provocation, they break up. Truth is, if you were the other person, would you date you? Hmmmm?!!!
A lot of us are here hoping to find that one special person and I know this one year is too long a time to actually start something meaningful. So start now. Try these four steps:

LETS TALK: MOTIVATION

By Abimbola Ige

Motivation is a theoretical construct used to explain behaviour. It is the scientific word used to represent the reasons for our actions, our desires, our needs, etc. 

A popular motivation theory is the conscious and unconscious motivations. A conscious motivation is one people recognise and are aware of themselves. Unconscious motivation refers to hidden or unknown desires that make people push themselves to achieve their goal. Some psychologists believe that a significant portion of human behaviour is energized and directed by unconscious motives. According to Maslow, “psychoanalysis has often demonstrated the relationship between a conscious desire and the ultimate unconscious aim that underlines need not be at all direct.” Another popular motivation theory is the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation theory, as explained below.
