**UNSTOPPABLE**

"The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me." - Ayn Rand GOODMORNING BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!!! I have one thing to say this morning.....STAY HUNGRY!!!!! I'm not talking about physical food, but the plate when it comes to digesting your DREAMS!

I have to admit I have been going in and out of being fully motivated when it comes to fighting for my dreams. I was to a point where I was becoming slightly content with my situation. When I first made this move in life to live my dreams, I was so hungry. When I moved to Chicago and told my loved ones my future plans I had complete tunnel vision. I knew that there was nothing stopping me from pursuing my goals. Life's distractions tries to come to you in every situation: Doubters, Unmotivated people, Life's trials, and just plain negativity.


It hit me after I returned from Sunday Service this past Sunday, which was amazing, that Never put God in a box! Never limit what He can do in your life. It made me sit back to go back to my huge dreams when I had when I first made this move. I flipped through all my journals that had all my goals and it started to sink in. When I first was here I had an agenda to get me to the next level. I did everything in my power to reach all these goals. I stay in people's face and made it impossible to forget me wand what I wanted.


Just because you reached your first set of goals, the next thing to do is.....Set BIGGER & BETTER Goals!! Go back to what made you sacrifice everything in life.


Don't ever stay comfortable! If you're at a point where you are completely comfortable in life that just means you need to set new goals. Growth is a part of life!

You have to have an UNBREAKABLE Mentality. Its' not that I have full confidence in myself but I have FULL confidence in GOD . All I'm doing is staying focus on Him and where He wants Me to be !

Say your dreams EVERYDAY!! WORDS ARE POWERFUL! Say It!!! No matter how ridiculous it might sound!


And for my ladies, we have to grind it out twice as hard! That should motivate you even more to put everything you have in your dreams. Men are not the only ones that are able to become CEOs & Moguls. We all know that women are smarter than men(Lol) So we should be making major moves!!

Remember if you start to feel that itch in life that's just a warning sign that God is about to take you to a new level in life!

What more can I say??

Love Life.

"On The Ocean"

"Out here on the ocean, I know my ship has come in ....." Okay so maybe not an ocean ...more so Lake Michigan. Since this weekend was unnaturally beautiful in Chicago I had to take advantage of this weather. After work me and my gal pals, made a pit stop at Buffalo Wild Wings, ordered the food to go and headed to the beach that evening.

There is honestly nothing better in life than the comfort of a summer night. It puts you at instant peace. It doesn't matter if your world is crumbling around you, summer nights allow you to sneak moments of bliss. Being able to look out at waves splashing is both relaxing and magical. I'ts somewhat undescribable of how your thoughts begin to loosen up when you look at one of God's Creations that is so much bigger than you are.

I have reach a point in my life where life is not as clear and cookie cut as I pictured it. I realized that you sometime have no control of how certain situations play out in life. All you have the power to do is react in the best way. I realized its really okay. It is okay not to be able to have control over what happens in your life. Embrace it. Trials are just God's way of nudging saying I'm still thinking of you and He wants you to grow. Think about it, If you're not growing, what are you doing?

And most importanat .....Laugh;) Laughter is the best medicine in any situation. I find myself getting so stressed out when something doesn't fall in place exactly how I pictured it. It gets to a point where you literally just have to laugh out loud. There are too many days whee the Most inconvenient and random situations happen in life...and I say out loud..."Only Me, only this randomness happens to me"...But Life Goes On....And you Learn:)

"God grant me the serenity to Accept the things I cannot change;

Courage to change the things I can;

And the Wisdom to know the difference"

"WALE, Im Kind Of A Big Deal"

Goodmorning all! I am recently recovering from my long day but thrilling day yesterday! After class I wen to a Meet & Greet with Washington's D.C.'s hip hop artist Wale (pronounced Wah-lay)!! As everyone know I am an intense hip hop lover and thats what Wale represents. His music is inspired by the go-go sound of D.C. and by the way he's Nigerian! Represent! His best known song and video is porbably the single W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E.. He is also put out a song and video with Chrissette Michele and The Roots called Rising Ups. He has been in press from XXL magazine to The New York Times..I have to say my fav mixtape from him is " A Mixtape About Nothing." Oh and he's currently signed with Rocafella....but moving on ...

Wale was super genuine an quite funny! Both me and my roommate told him we appreciate that he's putting Nigeria on the map! But was teasing him because he half way knew Yoruba. When he signed my autograph he asked my name....I began to say Ellisa..he shook his head and said nooo whats your name?? I laughed and repeated Oluwafemi! he smirked......and made a couple of jokes..about it and signed.

"To Oluwafemi, Be Proud!"- Wale

Naledge from Kidz in the Hall and Young Chris from the Young Gunz were in the building also!

After the meet and Greet we headed out to the concert at the Abbey Pub...

Wale & Naledge

The crowd in full effect!

Great Times

"It"s Not About Them"

Good evening , Its was a rainy, and pretty chilly today. I worked all day and came home and finished typing paper that I just finished:) It's interesting the paper deals with alot of personal growth and soul searching. ...while were on the topic...

As I was cleaning out my USB drive I ran across this poem I wrote about a year ago. When I read it, I pretty much cringed. The reason being because I don't even converse with this person anymore. But as I continued to read I realized it had nothing to do with the other person but was a reflection to myself. When you express yourself I realized its not about the other person and how they respond to you but how you see your true self. It shows emotions that have been laying dormant...and now you have to face them...well here it goes....

Silent Movie…
By Ellisa Oyewo

The words pouring out of your mind,slipped on the blade of my right shoulder
Each time your mouth is open the room becomes a distant view
Your silent presence surrounds my soul even in your absence.
I see your strength as a guide towards my vulnerability
I caress your mindset with my whispers in your ear
I can hear your thoughts through the depths of your eyes
But is quickly cut off from you as you cut me off with a simple glance
What is blocking me from entering your inner most parts of your soul?
I aid to be the light to your darkest moments
I strain to be the encouragement as life pours out unexpected heartache
The movement inside yourself when the world drains you of your empowerment
Allow me to be the neck that holds up the knowledgeable mind of yours
Just allow me to be …
I urge to see your face not as distant escape
But as my peace that will eventually be place right in front of my eyes
No expectations are set for you because you exceed each one
Through my eyes I allow you to enter my fears, my downfalls, my insecurities
You quickly allow me to erase each one with a simple glance..
As I interlocked my hands with yours it simply reminded me of your strength
I daydream of stealing glances to catch you in your true element of life
I feel as if I’m a spectator to your silent movie …..

Man, sometimes pain is the spark of creativity....Its a mirror to myself
