...and then I created a blog :)

Ok, so I've been thinking of making/creating a blog for a really long time now(well actually since the very first episode I saw of sex and the city- which I watched on series channel with my mum and might I add, was verrryy veerryy awkward!). Let's just say I'm the queen of procrastination cos this was when I was about 14!  But I was never really sure what it was gonna be about or what I was gonna name it so the urge to make one died down for a bit... Then I stumbled across the now famous BellaNaija's blog and the urge came up again, unfortunately high school life had me all caught up and of course naija internet also didn't help matters *rolls eyes*

Fast forward a couple of years to 2010 : finally decided my thoughts were just too awesome to keep to myself and I absolutely had to share them with the world :D
So my journey to creating a blog started in november 2010. First there were a couple of issues I needed to overcome...
ISSUE 1 - what to call my blog... I had to give it a name befitting my awesome fabulousity! ;;) lol.. So my options were as follows :
- Awesome fabulousity :|
- life and times of the rominator *Epic fail!!*
- Read this, its cool :|
*as you can see! I'm not the most innovative person, bite me! :p*

Finally!!! It came to me in the dead of the night as I was desperately trying to fall asleep on my unbelievably tiny-single-bunk bed, but random thoughts kept popping into my head like irritating pop ups on a not-so-legit website. That eureka moment that lights up your life for a split second and all you see is light! *a bit dramatic I know but hey, I'm easily excitable its not my fault ok!?* and then I knew I had a fitting name for where I am in life right now, right under the lightbulb it read: Rants and Bants of an unsatisfied teen :)

ISSUE 2 - what user name to err use(?) *this sentence sounds a bit dodgy, english can be a trip sometimes..sigh*
Ok- obviously I don't have a very "funky" name, any nickname formed from my name either sounds like a really cheesy baby name or a female wrestlers stage name which let's be honest, is not very awesome or fabulous :| (which I am)
You might be wondering why I didn't  just use my real name - I'm no Perez hilton ok!! My name is cool sounding and catchy like that! Don't judge me!! *angry face* . Plus I wanted something that wasn't as OBVIOUS as my facebook, twitter, bbm, skype and even MSN name! Sheesh!! Is that too much to ask for?! Long story short, I chose chEEks(simply Romoke)- chEEks being a nickname from my buddyyy M! :D and (simply Romoke)- because tbh that's just who I am :)...

With those issues taken care of I begin my debut as a blogger!! So feel free to welcome the coolest new kid on the block to the blog world B)

So till next time, remember you're awesome, God loves you and you all secretly want to be me!!! I JOKE! *looks left and right* :|  X's et O's
