As the year draws to an end, i cant help be reflect on the last year of my life. And i most say its been a good year. I started the year with a small circle of friends now i am ending it with a bigger circle but minus one person. i have been truly blessed in 2009. I start my final year of Uni, Finished. Got a very good degree, I graduated completing the circle of my family. I got my drivers licence, I started Freelance worker, the plans for a business were set into motion. I created this blog. I have been truly blessed. Amongst all my blessings. I lost one of my dearest friends *RIP Anneta*.
This year i saw a lot of my favourite artist: Jay-Z, Young Jeezy, Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Mos Def, Q-Tip. It was a good year, got closer with my family and my friends. I joined Twitter this year and met some interesting and incredible people in there own way. This year i also lost contact with a lot of people, i used to think were friends. I met a special lady, lost her to circumstances out of my control. Met another Lady and we will see what the new year brings.
All i can say about this year is that God was with me through out. so i give credit were credit is due. Without Him i wont have achieved any of the things i did. So to God, I thank you for every breath i took this year and the ones i will continue to take.
As a new year dawns, i am not really a fan of new years resolutions because they mostly get broken so i have set myself tasks that need to be accomplished with my focus and dedication i will see them through. I also will blog alot more, i have been lazy but i will kick that habit. Hopefully some interesting topics, new trends, designs and others.
I will draw this post to and end by saying this, Praise God and thank him for all he has done. alot of people started this year and not everyone is ending it. Be thankful in everything you do. your life could be a whole lot worse. Well till 2010. I wish you and your families a Happy and Properous New Year.

Watch Who You Associate With
The theme of this post is another one of those topics that always seem to be around me, I tweeted about it a little while back but I felt it needed a quick blog post, "Association breeds similarity" this is a popular saying I hear this regularly in songs & read it in books. This statement also comes with biblical references, check out Proverbs 13:20. As humans no matter your mind set we are influenced by elements in our environment especially who we associate with.
The choices we make when it comes to association can potentially determine where we end up or how we become. Hanging around negative associates brings a negative aura around you. Picture this, if your main associates are scare mongers, they will instill fear into you whenever you have an idea and it could possibly make you miss out on a good opportunity. Avoid spending time with negative associates the effect they have on you is a lot more damaging than you think. I can attest that hanging around with negative associates turns your actions into negative ones.
Choosing the right kind of associates is crucial to your development."A man only learns in two ways, one by reading, and the other by association with smarter people" as the quote states by hanging around with intelligent people or driven people, their intelligence or drive rubs off on you which is a good thing well unless you are not interested in bettering yourself. A change in associates changes the way you view things and it inspires you to better yourself and your understanding.
In Conclusion, getting rid of associates is never an easy thing but if they are not bringing value to your life what is the point, you are better off with people that will inspire to greatness

5 Favourite Sneaker Brands at the Moment
Ok Looking at the post i have published, i realized i havent acually talked about one of my biggest passions "Sneakers", considering the name of the blog and my twitter page (@GeekySneaks). Majority of the people that know me, know i dnt play when it comes to my shoe game. I am going to run through my 5 favourite brands at the moment.
Brand 1 - Nike:
I had to start of the list with Nike. I have love them since the air '95 (Cool Gray/Neon Yellow - My first ones) to the TN's but love for Nike deepened when i got my first ever AF1's all white with a the white and gray sole. After those well lets say i went on a very long AF1 phase. Still love them -
Brand 2 - Supras:
i got into this brand last year and it was love at first sight, the SkyTops, Vaiders and TK Society. love them all. They have some of the nicest colourways i have seen. the new 09 holiday collection looks sooo sick -
Brand 3 - Adidas:
I actually dont own a pair, dont think i ever have but i am loving their new approach, i am feeling the Jeremy Scott ones, they are nuts. i am huge fan of the collabo they did with Def Jam esp the Young Jeezy ones -
Brand 4 - Fila
They practically brought themselves back from the dead. Their F-13 and F-14 line are sick, the variety they have is nuts. My personal favourite is the Fila Italia High tops. Very nice collection -
Brand 5 - Osiris
I recently found out about theses. i love the whole skateboard feel and look (although i cant skate to save my life). they have odd mixtures of colours but they work -
So those are my 5 favourite brands at the moment.

Patience, Persistence and Perspiration
The theme of this post has been in the air around me for the last couple of weeks, so it made me write this new post. hope you enjoy
In the words of Napoleon Hill “Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success”. I completely agree with this statement. when striving for anything be it studies or Job Hunting or starting a business or greatness, you need to apply those 3P's to your life and way of thinking. The greatest athletes put in serious hours in the gym, on the field to make themselves great, so why do think we can achieve levels of greatness without trying, this is due to the society we live in.
With the current state of the world where we have faster cars, fast connections and other things, we as humans are programmed in a way where we want things instantly be it wealthy, the perfect physique or skills, we all suffer from this in one way or another. Majority of people lack the Patience and I am one of them. When you rush into things they are bound to fail as not a lot of thought has gone into it. Being Patient allows you to clearly see where you want to go or what you want to be or how you want things to pan out. This instant mind set causes a lot of problems because when people fail its a sets them back and potentially stops them from reaching goals. This is where Persistence comes into, the ability to keep trying no matter how many times you have failed. I was told "Failure is just an event, not a personality", think of this statement anytime you fail at something because it allows you to brush off that event and move to the next.
When applying Persistence to your situation, I believe Perspiration goes hand in hand with this. Perspiration literally means to sweat. As Thomas Alva Edison says "Success is 10 percent inspiration and 90 percent perspiration". This is another statement that inspires greatly, you might have a great idea but without putting in the leg work, it will remain an idea. Looking at most successful people and organisation they have sweated to achieve their success, again looking at athlete's they literally sweat in order to be the best they can be. They put in the work on a daily basis to achieve their success.
Concluding this post, maintain these 3 elements in your pursuits as they really are a recipe for success, i can confirm that they have helped me achieve success. I know as humans it is difficult to do but with practice and the right mind set it can be done. Until my next post, Peace and Stay Classy

Never Can Say Goodbye
Hey Neatz,
Its been 5 months since you have gone and I still can't believe you are gone. I hope your in Heaven smiling down. You were one of the truest friends I had, man I miss you. My birthday is coming up this is the first time I am spending it without you making me laugh & trying to get me to smile in pictures. I really miss you. When i was sending the invite i almost added you, took me a second to realize you had gone.
On Facebook it says I should 'Write on your wall to reconnect', words can never say how I still feel or what you meant to me. The mere thought of you being gone brings tears to my eyes. I know its weird for you to see me like this, you rarely saw me show emotion, well anger and smiling. You know I didn't agree with some of your choices but you were still my friend, even when you were late to meet us, you were still my homie and I always respected you. you were always there to talk to.
I finally got my licence and I can't even take you on a drive but I guess I will have to wait till I see you later. You never got to be in my graduation pics but I know you will be there with me. Damn, I can't believe its starting to rain as I am writing this. You are my homie for life, I know I haven't been to see your family in a while but I dont know what to say, how can I console them when someone so special has gone. when we go out now, if really feels weird taking pics, you know you were the queen of that. its like you took my smile, when you left. not that i smile much anyway. I am gna be 23 in less than 2 days, I have achieved a lot in my life so far but nothing compares to losing you.
I am going to end it before i get to emotional, I can Never say Goodbye to you, you will forever be in my heart,My homie.
Love

Dinner from Hell
Hello World.
Tonight me and my family went out to Embassy African Restaurant '78 Blackheath Road, Greenwich,LONDON, SE10 8DA'. At this location we experienced a dinner from Hell as coined by Richard Lewis. (Sidebar: you have to be a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" fan to know the reference). We were in a happy place as we left home, listening to Young Jeezy's Recession. We arrived at the restaurant, we were seated promptly and given menus, they gave us 5 menus for a party of 6 and when we asked for another one they said they didnt have enough WHAT you dnt have enough menus. We should have left after that but we didnt.
We began ordering, we asked for a Jug of Juice, they replied we have ran out. How do you run out of juice and the restaurant is practically empty we opted for soft drinks. Food ordering time, we ordered appetisers and then main meal my brother asked for fried rice, they replied they ran out of fried rice (This was another indication that we should have left) so he order Jollof. then the lady came back and said they ran out of Fresh Fish that was requested by my Mother (another sign but at this point going to another place would have been tedious). they brought out our drinks, we discussed various topics from sports to Nick Griffin to Kanye West to Lil Mama
(Sidebar: even my Mum knows about how Kanye disgraced himself with the whole Taylor Swift incident).
It slowly occurred that this place is a HELL HOLE, 30 mins and the appetisers werent brought out. Then our waiteress appeared with our Main Meal first and No appetisers and had the EFFRONTERY to try and be rude to my parents when she was questioned about the bad service needless to say she was put in her place.
(Sidebar: I was scared they might do juju on our food)
They brought 4 out of 6 meals, while me and my sister waited. then ppl that came after us got their food before us. At this point I had murderous intent (see my twitter feed). Finally the food came, nothing special but i ate it because i was starving. Once the meal was done, we were eager to get out of that place, it took them forever and a day to get the check. At this point i went to use their toilet, the state of their toilet was disgusting:
We paid and left, with utter disappointment, on the way out there slogan was 'Visa to good food'. VISA to what, are retarded? Your establishment is one of the reasons, Nigerians are not moving forward. Narrow Minded, No Manners having individuals. I am all for Africans having restaurants, it makes me proud but that establishment should be burnt to the groud and the staff should be flogged for such POOR service and iodine should be added to their wounds. The phrase "Better the devil you know" came to mind throughout the evening, be a creature of habit, dont always try new restuarants. I WILL never visit the place again.
In the end:
Quality of Food: sub par nothing to write home about
Service: This is a FACT Tasty in Woolwich has better service than them
Atmosphere: Hot, bland didnt set the mood for a good evening.
Overall: this is a FAIL of an establishment.
The best part of the evening was leaving to go home. That ends my lil rant about this Embassy Restaurant.
Please DO NOT GO THERE. you will regret it.
Peace

Drake Feat. Trey Songz - Successful Video
The video for Successful is out. Let me know what you think. personallly i prefer the mixtape version to this but the Trey Songz verse gives it a nice touch
Sunday 16 August 2009
Farewell
We have finally laid your body to rest. It hurts so much because it means I have to say goodbye when I don't want to. My heart is filled with so much pain, I wish the rain will wash away my pain. Every time I think of you, brings tears to my eyes. You were a true friend, I am so glad to have been part of your life.
I still can't believe I had to bury my friend, it is not fair. You were so young and full of life, now you are gone. I miss you so much. Everyone says it is part of God's plan, I wonder what the plan is, is it to bring pain and sorrow into the hearts of many. I don't understand why God will allow people to go through this kind of pain. The way I feel right now I won't wish it on anyone. But I guess it will get easier eventually, I wish that time will come now. I don't want this much pain.
You being buried, makes me feel like your out of my life forever & I can't stand that. So everyday I will keep you in my heart & know you are watching over me. I will live my life so you will carry on being proud of me.
I love you forever.
Your brother

Speaking on Drake
Hello interwebz,
I am all for artist getting success don't get me wrong but I hate it when it is overdone you tend to start hating the artist. Every damn radio station is playing 'Best I Ever Had', at first I liked the song but too much airplay can make a song really irritating.
Just a quick question, how do you think Drake's Album will do? I feel by the time it comes out he might be over-saturated. Let me know what you think.

Letter to an Angel
Hey Anneta
A few days later still can't believe you are gone, all the friends & family you left behind really miss you. I know it is selfish for all of us to want you back when you are at peace and away from the pain and suffering of this world but you were precious to all of us, people you met briefly you left a lasting impression on them just like you left your mark on all of us. Looking at the message written about you, you will never be forgotten & you will always be loved.
I am so thankful to God for your life and the joy you spread around us even when you were hurt on the inside. I wish I could have shared some of your pain if it would bring you back. You will forever be with us, it is a real shame that it took you going for us to come together and realize how much you meant to us. I pray you knew how much we valued you.
Although it won't be the same without you but I am going to live life for the both of us, enjoy every waking moment and every blessing & all the joy and happiness received and be thankful & appreciate all the people I have been blessed to meet. We meet a lot of people in life and forget some but you will never be forgotten.
I can keep writing about how special you are but my words can never do justice to how upset I feel or how much you meant to me. When I see your family and friends I want to cry because I can see you in them but I will stay strong and support for them.
Rest in peace and stay your blessed and cheerful self and we will all meet up in a better place and catch our usual jokes.
R.I.P Anneta Oji an angel among humans. Hope you get this message
Your friend and brother

PS to everyone that reads this cherish life and all those around you don't wait for a tragedy like to occur before realising what is important. Live your life to the fullest.

Letter to a Lost Friend
I really wish I didn't have a reason to write this post but I do. I couldn't believe when I got the call telling me, you left without saying goodbye. Words can't describe how I feel right now or what you meant to me.
I am going to try and not mourn over you but remember all the fun we had. I really miss you, can't believe your gone now. It really hurts because we hadn't spoken in a while and I called the day before to share my joy and see how you were but you didn't pick up. I wish I had a chance to tell you how much you mean to me but alas I don't, I hope this post can get to you and let you know you were one of my true friends, you were more like a sister than a friend. I would have done anything to make you happy.
I wish you would have called me and told me all the problems you were going through, I told you I would always to be there to listen to what ever problem you had and help you through it. I wish you would have opened up to me and told me what was going on. The last time I saw you was your birthday, I wish we could go back to that day so we can spend more time together.
You had so much going for you, you finished your university degree, got a good job and were going to go Law school. Why would God make them and then take them young, its really not fair. We had so much plans for this summer can't believe we can never do them.
Just met your mum & family for the first time, felt like they were my own. The love they had for you is incredible, You will sure be missed. I met you at university, felt like we known each other forever. Though I when I gave you advice and sometimes you ignored it which annoyed me sometimes because you were stubborn and a fighter, I can't believe you gave up this time.
Still doesn't feel like you have gone, waiting to get up from a bad dream but its not going to happen, I miss you so much. Why would God take you from us like that, knowing how much joy you brought into peoples lives. I guess he needs more good people in heaven than on earth & you are in a better place now, so hope you are enjoying yourself and we will surely meet again.
Going through all the pics we took just saddens me, we had so much fun & you were so filled with life. I saw one of your folder 'the girl who lived' that almost broke my heart. I wish you were still here, I am so blessed that we met & all the people you introduced me to.
I will always love you forever, my friend but more like family.
Your brother now and forever

Favourite Artist at The Moment
Ok I haven't blogged in a while, been twittering most of the time and watching tv shows.
Anyway I have decide to dedicate this post to one of my favourite rappers in an era of gimmicks and skinny jeans and gold chains. I am talking bout none other than Drizzy Drake Rogers, Jimmy from Degrassi. You don't know better get to know.
Ok I know he is getting a lot of buzz at the moment which is rightly so, dude is on a different plain to most rappers. He can sing and rap, his word play and delivery are nice.
You wanna get into Drake here are a list of mixtapes to get:
So far gone
Comeback season
Room for improvement
The Empire & Drake present: The drought is over
I have several tune, I put on repeat constantly but 'Best I Ever Had' is probably my favourite, the song is too nice (works well with the ladies)
Check him out, you wont regret it

Manny Vs Hatton
Ok I haven't blogged in like forever (due to exams & what not).
Well I am back on my rants as I do.
To start it off the Manny & Hatton fight
It was an awesome fight, Hatton was completely outclassed. He came with the same tactics that he used to fight Mayweather i.e. I am bigger than the other fighter, I can out muscle them. This tactic failed in this fight also, Manny showed him that size did not matter. The 3 KO's were awesome although the last one looked like Hatton might be in bad shape.
From his performance I think he should retire, his trainer also said he should retire.
I am looking forward to Manny Vs Mayweather depending if he beats Marquez in July. I can't pick who would win the fight but it should be very interesting to watch

Eminem - Total Wackness
Eminem - Total Wackness
ok i know this song has been out for a while and i have been meaning to give my 2 cents on it.
when i saw the video and heard the song. i was like wow. if a soulja boy song can be better than yours you need to re-evaluate your career.
Eminem used to be good after Marshall Matters LP everything else has been wacked. back in the day i could have said yeh he is a good rapper but now words cant describe the wackness.
Please watch the video and let me know what you think. (the Sarah Palin is hot by the way just thought i'd say that)
listen to stan and see how good he used to be. Money changes ppl Huh
