some facebook applications are beginning to annoy

I could not help but laugh at the following comment someone posted on facebook but truth be told, some facebook notifications can get very annoying sometimes.

H-H-H-H-E-E-E-L-L-L-P-P-P! CAN SOMEONE TELL THEM TO STOP POSTING "SOMETHING" ON MY WALL. Notification: "Oshi-mashi" posted something on your wall. "Okukuseku" tagged a photo of you. "Oflifo" commented on "moko's" status. PLEASE hhheeelllpppp! I am drowning.

"I am drowning" sounds like the most appropriate comment I should make right now. Can you imagine my page/wall is full of one gift from some person or the other I do not even know and I get this on an minute basis.

Some of the comments go like this; "please accept this smile - I got this just for you", "so so and so took good note of your birthday", "please accept this valentine gift - I got this just for you". Even more annoying is "please accept this smiley pet - I got this just for you". Did I tell someone I wanted a pet.

Is there no way I can stop some of these wall posting from coming? It is making me go nuts. I wouldn't mind but what it does is that it crowds out the proper wall postings. Someone please help me and the gentleman with the comments above how to stop this virtual spam.

my visit to Havui: the village that inspired this blog

On my visit to Havui, my mother's adopted hometown last weekend, I had the rare privilege of enjoying a 20 minute boat ride from Anyanui to the village and I should say it was a marvelous experience. The mere sight of beautiful mangrove was enough to make my day. Seeing fishes, the numerous crabs and beautiful coconut plantations across the coast of the Volta River, I decided I would visit the place regularly. Well, it actually inspired this blog too.

The people are nice and accommodating. The coconut is delicious and the akple and agbame tadi with akpa is hot and nice (akple is a staple prepared from corn and cassava, agbame tadi is hot pepper and akpa is tilapia fish). The music is melodious and the dance is agbadza. A bit of that is in the video below. More later!



Havui, which we like to call Hawaii is a remote village near Sogakofe in the South Tongu district of the Volta Region.
