Rants

That's how I found this image online and it contains a 30-day challenge. Long story short, I've started with the challenges. Today is day 3. Oh, where are my manners? How've y'all been? As I was saying, day 3 of my challenge was about alcohol and drugs. Well, my stand is obvious.

I hope everyone's Eid celebrations went alright, or at least, better than mine. Not only was I bored out of my skull, I ate what my neighbour's kids brought for me, barbecued beef. So, it wasn't that bad, but the marinade was all saucy and now, my tummy's complaining. Okay, scout's honor, I ate waaaay more than that. I ate a lot, actually. Too much, if you ask me. But, then again, who was counting, eh? Well, I should have. Now, I'm lying on my bed on a sunday and I have no idea what to do with myself. Before you go all religious on me, know this. I am spiritual, not religious. So, sunday-sunday church or sunday Jesus dp usage or Jesus fb posts are not my thing. In truth, I despise them. For the simple reason of "Why didn't you post about Jesus during the week? What? He went to the office and was unavailable during the week, eh?" But, I digress. So, my own Eid was spent in front of a tv with a controller pad in my hands. (Did I mention that I'm a gamer? I am. Oh, goody) I also ate a lot, but you already knew that. Anyhow, here's to a new week and hoping y'all had fun. Let me know how your Eid went. Share your fun day or whatever kind of day you had. Toodles.

The Maze Runner

Okay, so this is my first blog on here and just because it's MY post, I'll write about what I like.(yeah, I'm conceited like that). Anyway, so I went to GDC yesterday and I got a pleasant  in that I wanted to watch a movie and I had just two thousand bucks with me and a movie is one thousand, five hundred. So, I say "whatever, it's a movie, let's do this"(yeah, I'm a movie maniac). Anyhow, it turns out movies are five hundred naira on Tuesdays before noon. Imagine the grin on my face. Okay, enough rambling.
The Maze Runner is a 2014 movie based on a book of the same name by James Dashner and directed by Wes Ball
. It's about a group of boys that are put in a controlled environment, with no memory of who they were, except for their names. I say "were" because they obviously had lives before the Glade(oh yeah, that's what they call their abode). They have to grow their own food and basically, survive, which goes without saying. They stick together and watch out for each other. There's a group of them that go out each day and they're called "Runners". Did I mention the Glade's surrounded by a maze? A huge maze, too. It's up to the Runners to map out the maze and try to find a way out, if there's any. They have to contend with Grievers, though. And also have to get back to the glade before nighttime,  the walls surrounding the glade close up and then, they're at the mercy of the grievers. There's a lot of words that don't make sense initially and sound all made up, but as the movie progresses, you start to get it. That said, the movie's got lessons to teach and action. Suspense, a little bit of comedy and no nudity. So, all you pervs, this isn't for you. In all, I'd rate it 6/10.
