ITS BEEN A STORM IN MY HEAD LATELY A STORM SO BAD THAT I CAN NOW FULLY UNDERSTAND WAT THE VICTIMS OF KATRINA AND THESE MANY OTHERS THAT HAVE HIT ASIA AND THE PACIFIC...WELL I HAVE STRUGGLED TO TELL WHETHER MY HEART WAS RIGHT OR I WAS JUST GOING THROUGH ANOTHER USUAL SPATE OF GAMES WITH THE OPPOSITE SEX.
ANY WAY I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT OF MY SELF AS ONE OFa THOSE GUYS WHO WOULD NEVER GO THROUGH THE MYSTERY WE LOVE TO CALL LOVE. AT LEAST MY PEERS CONVINCED ME SO AFTER WITNESSING MY NOT SO MANY CONQUESTS.
ALONG THE WAY I MET A VERY SPECIAL HOMO SAPIEN I WILL REFER TO AS BLB. WHAT STARTED AS A CONTEST OF WHO HAD WORST ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE OTHER TURNED INTO A SORT OF FRIENDSHIP I GREW TO ENJOY SO MUCH. LIKE THE COMMON AFTERNOON RAINS WHICH OUT OF NO WHERE RINSE THE SKIES OF ITS GRAY LEAVING IT CLEAR , MY FONDNESS FOR HER CLEARED MY HEAD OF ALL MY FEARS....MY HEART BEGGED ME TO LET IT ENJOY THE MOMENT..IT WAS WILLING TO BE SUBJECTED TO FEELINGS OF CHEAP JEALOUSY, LONELINESS,POSSESSIVENESS ET AL FEELINGS I HAVE NOT FELT IN A WHILE AND THOUGHT OF WITH A LOT OF CONTEMPT.
BLB ON HER PART IS A MYSTERY...YOU CAN TERM HER HOT AND COLD LIKE KATE PERRY SANG IN HER MONSTER HIT KNOWN BY DA SAME TITLE. SHE THINKS AM AMAZING, LOVING, ATTRIBUTES I HAVE NOT BEEN COMPLIMENTED WITH BY MOST PEOPLE I HAVE KNOWN IN MY RECENT HISTORY AND DON'T CALL ME NAMES THAT BITCH QUIN C REALLY DID A LOT OF DAMAGE, AFFECTED MY CONFIDENCE AND NEARLY RUINED MY EGO. BUT BACK TO MY LOVELY BLB AM LEARNING HOW TO PUT UP WITH HER TEMPER, HER LAST MINUTE CHANGE OF MIND EVEN WHEN WE HAD AGREED ON SOMETHING GENERALLY AM LEARNING TO PUT UP WITH WAT TWO MONTHS AGO I WOULD TERM AS BS ALL IN THE NAME OF SOLVING THIS MYSTERY . AM LIKE A CHILD TRYING TO RIDE A BIKE OR TAKING MY FIRST FOOT STEPS.
ALL MY BUDDIES THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN LUCKY TO MEET HER WHEN SHE HONORED MY INVITATIONS TO TAKE HER OUT, THINK SHES GREAT AND WONDER HOW I AM NOT INTIMIDATED BY HER STORY BOOK LIKE LOOKS AND NOT GIRL LIKE HEIGHT. SHE WOULD GIVE LAWINO A RUN FOR HER MONEY.
THAT ASIDE THEY THINK SHE HAS MADE ME A DIFFERENT PERSON AND I CANNOT DENY THAT B'SE I TOO CANT EXPLAIN MY SUDDEN REDUCTION IN ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION OR WORSE THE FACT THAT I CAN NOW LEAVE A BAR BEFORE ITS EVEN TEN O'CLOCK ON A GOOD SATURDAY NITE WITH CLUB BEERS STILL FLOWING AT THE BAR.
BLB UNLIKE THE OTHER DAUGHTERS OF EVE IS STUBBORN YES AND WHEN SHE SAYS OR DOES CERTAIN THINGS I ALWAYS UNDERSTAND.. I HAVE HAD MY SHARE OF MISDEEDS SO MAY BE SHE IS MY PENANCE BUT THAT ASIDE SHE WILL TRY SO MUCH TO WIN AT EVERYTHING...YOU COULD HAVE KNOWN ME AS AN ARGUMENTATIVE BLUBBER MOUTH BUT IN HER PRESENCE WORDS FAIL ME.
BLB IS MY LOVE AND AM HOLDING ON TO HER FOREVER AND LIKE POLITICIANS SAY SO HELP ME GOD

money or love?? and why am so into work these days
its really been a while since i last posted, its really been a while i almost failed to sign in and u cant blame me; if i have to use some sort of code to access my mail, blog, face book.. even my ATM i need to remember some code to allow me access to what is mine....
so while i was doing my other duties save for blogging i got involved in so many arguments with my lady workmates about love, marriage, relationships, courtship and every thing that involves two person "fear of sounding homophobic made me write this"
while most of my colleagues agree that love supersedes any sort of material thing they in da same wave length concur that money smooth ens da whole ride. as i listened to them speak and they really went to so many extremes there some bits of our conversations that really got me out of my seat
scenario one; a male graduate with no job and this super independent career woman....do u think there can really be love between these two even if they met at church?
verdict; no way, never, if he has hope and from appearance he looks like he has a future but again is there a guarantee for success.. remember she has all sorts of insurance health comprehensive for her NADIA.. i will leave it to you to conclude/
scenario two; two handsome guys at the work place all other factors remaining oh i used dat i miss my economics lectures. so i was saying two guys one with all accessories. nice car, nice clothes generally well kempt and he is juxtaposed with another guy who is ok walks to work and yes does everything the normal ugandan way. they both are interested in this new intern . the question is who stands a chance of getting the first date..
verdict; da pimped guy, i will go with both, play them , da normal guy to which all da females burst out and laugh...your answer is as good as mine
scenario three; he's loaded and gives everything you ask for you being the female or lady but the problem is he is never there, has no interest in making love, the other one well he can look after himself but can not afford two cater to the lady in his life but will be there for her in all ways...
verdict; this one got me out of my seat .. i would rather cry all nite all day while cruising my Ferrari, how will he be there with no dime, i would go with the loving one as long as i am working, one funny one said " love is grand, divorce is a hundred grand ..
at that its time for me to go eat, vowing to my self to work so hard make a lot of money and mostly be God fearing as they we all agreed that God provides us with Checks and balances

12th FEBRUARY 2010
ever stopped to wonder what it would be like if things were not what they were? as i walked into the graduation grounds flanked by my parents on either side i wondered what life would have been like if for example i had gone to the urban Kampala parents school and not the rural Namilyango Juniors boys school. i would probably be more comfortable around girls, know most of them more personally and appear to be more confident about things but less prayerful and lacking in survival skills which are a requirement in this country we call pearl of africa.
anyway as i joined my coursements catching up on the past days and life out of campus , i wondered what life would have been like for me if i had gone to St. Mary's College Kisubi or Kings College Buddo and not the great Namilyango College the fear that came over me alone at that thought reminded me that we were supposed to be taking our seats. but then again if things had been different i would probably be an Engineer and not an accountant but sadly not as hard and good a rugby player and if one probably playing for the national team not because am good but because i would be plying my trade with G4S pirates a club i hate for influencing and meddlig in rugby affairs in the country mostly denying chance to those that deserve. despite me being off rugby at the moment, the fear of not knowing my peers because of having gone on the other end of the lake for High school is heightened as the chancellors entourage enters the graduation grounds and speeches, anthems and endless remarks take center stage of grad.
as the deans award various degrees which are met with screams , ululations and joyous celebrations from the graduands and parents a like, i ask my self the same question what life would have been like if i had insisted on going to MUK or UCU mukono for that
Law degree. its then that i start to remniscence the good old days in the guild cabinet my short stint as a member of the democratic party's UYD. the allowances that came with being the Guild finance minister, the politicking the never successful censures and the government allowances for non resident government aided students and the priviledges of not queing up during registration time and attending all university functions courtesy of knowing the guild president and most of all being among the few stars that shone in the rather not so bright Kyambogo's skies, reader i hope u get wat i mean.
as the dean faculty of Arts and social sciences read out my name for the award of Bachelor of Arts in Economics, i wondered if life would be the same if i had different parents and i was not Muguluma, thinking of all the good things they have done for me; it was than i said glory to God and was so grateful for his kindness and giving me thae most loving and giving parents, i even feared to dare think of another father what if he was a drunkard abusive father who cared less for our welfare, what if i had the kind of mother who couldnt even tell the father of her children. as i thought about what my parents had gne through to get me this far, the sacrifices they had made a great feeling of debt and love was too much to bear and as i left the tents to go i realised how good life has been for me thus far and like my old man said on the 20th of Feb exactly a year after that fatal accident that almost took my life i pledged to my self to work so hard and give back to my parents cause without them i would have turned out as a boda boda rider, taxi conductor , or even as a porter at some construction site looking forward to go drink waragi which would probably have killed me or i would have gotten involved in some kind of trouble and would be serving some sentence just nearby in Luzira prison.

Why i liked the Lost symboll
Of late i hear people speaking all sorts of thing of whether there is God or not and how religion is not logical they argue that science is a more reasonable approach to life and generally to them being atheistic is cool actually modern and free thinking is the way to go. i know several people who have been raised from pious families rich in Christianity but the way they shun it despite those many evening we spent attending catechism classes is rather sad.
now recent troubles in my life have brought me closer to God and made me read the holy book this time not for academic purposes but for spiritual nourishment.i have survived in Four freaky car accidents once when i was really drunk and seriously the only reason i could have survived can only be divine intervention, a superior being, or the existence a supernatural power. i believe i am alive because the powers that be want it that way or am not yet good enough to join them in the spiritual world.
these proponents of atheism make very logical arguments but while reading the Bible recently the way Dan Brown says in his book lost symbol. i have come to appreciate that the bible is not actually for the normal brain and that you have to be enlightened to get the points. take fore instance the wide road and narrow road in Matthew 7:13 whereas Sunday school taught that the narrow road actually led to heaven despite it being thorny and bad and that the wide road led to hell despite its comfort, the moral of this story is that about every day experiences like group influence, peer pressure, group think at work and its evils, and it teaches us that it actually pays to think through things despite the discomfort we may experience like being alienated, segregated as long as the sense of one self is not lost all is well and the fruits are heaven. personal decision especially those that will have effect on our lives due to collective decisions, group think , peer pressure, and the band wagon effect ; generally any thing that you don't believe in but partake in because of what the crowd will say or think of you is the wide road that will lead to hell. As such am off alcohol because i do not want to drink it any more and i don't care if bees sting due to the cola i will be taking its my narrow path.
to those that read the bible most atheists actually own and read the bible religiously or any other book deemed to be holy and translate (read) understand them for their written word, you get it wrong and miss out the point in the stories, parables and psalms in these books. you are actually no better than the preachers on the streets and therefore need to be enlightened lest you die in your ignorance like Dan brown puts it in his book.

invictus
when i first heard about this movie i couldn't wait to get my hands on it so when my movie guy ( i have all sorts of guys) called me announcing that he had it i dashed to his shop threw him his ka 1500 and headed home to watch this must watch at least those that have for those who put on those micro mini shorts, thick cotton shirts and ridiculously heavy boots and lost some sweat tackling and being tackled on the field it doesn't matter where. so when i read on one friend's blog about this movie and how da preview was done so badly and he was baying for the reviewers blood. i thought i should do a piece about this INVICTUS. i will not go into da genesis of the word, the poem i wanted to share some of the scenes that i really liked.
while every one else will shower Morgan Freeman with praise for doing a great job as Madiba and Matt Damon for his role as Francios Pieenar, as a Ugandan and a follower of Ugandan, i was awed by the role Chester William played or had in this whole rugby thing in South Africa. seeing all those kids calling out his name as was watched in the movie and Francios pieenar asking Him to say that prayer after that famous win over Jonah Lomu's Newzealand's All Blacks in 95 was amazing. i mean he was here in Uganda in 2007 as coach and successfully led us to the African cup some will say it was dat other guy i forget his name but oh yeah its Dobela but don't we always say Moses led the Israelite to the promised land even when he actually died on their way there and didn't actually make it? we hard Chester here in Uganda but i think we didn't appreciate him enough i mean this guy was much more than being the only black on the Spring Boks team he was and is still a HERO who deserved more than he got here( speaks a lot about the nature of Ugandans ignoring the important things and settle for the nonsense)its no wonder he left abruptly and there's nothing good to write about his return recently as we fell miserably to Tunisia. i have heard from those who were lucky to be trained by Him that he was more than just a Man but trust Ugandans we could water down Jesus' miracle. The union failed to grant him the simplest of requests and as such he couldn't take us to the world cup despite him being a winner of the web Ellis.
Aside from that as an All blacks fan those bloody Boks really tackled Lomu and put him out of the game. at the end despite having watched da real game many times i couldn't help but be happy for the new rainbow nation's win.
Chester Uganda owes u
