"Use what you have to get what you want" is an expression that has been widely used to mean different things.
Some used it to pursue a good course while some others have used it to take advantage of people or even sell themselves cheaply to get something that can't buy back their lost values.
One of those people that have used it so well for a good course is my Twin. How? You may ask.
Growing up with her was a mix of fun and surprise. When Grace, My twin, is given an opportunity to make a choice, she makes it goes for the minimum. Why? Hmmm...Ask her, please.
When you have the opportunity to choose from a great reserve and you go for some things that are almost unnoticed, you should be suspected.
Her strategy is this; for example, when our older Siblings ask us what we want for our birthday or Christmas it becomes a big deal because our views differ.
I see that as an open check, signed and approved. I just need to input the figures. Isn't that right? So, I go all out asking for gadgets, clothing and, of course, some cash. Is that being exorbitant? Before you answer just see what happens. My Twin will ask for things like a pizza delivery, a bottle of fruit wine and maybe N2,000. Ahhhhh! With that he gets considered for things just like King Solomon's favor from God.
This is unfair, Babe. I thought I was your sweetheart-twin-brother. So her requests make mine seem preposterous.
I'm writing this so that you can all plead with her not to do same now that our birthday is Four Days away because I'm already preparing my list and on top of it are;
* Toyota Venza,
* Six Bedroom en suite duplex in Magodo Phase 2 Estate or Surulere or Victoria Island or in the Bahamas
* Visa to Georgia, Canada or Dubai(for a strart)
* A Pro Alto and curved Saxophone made by Selmer(Paris), Canonball or Yamaha
* An AMT Saxophone Mic or a better brand
* An Apple iPhone 6
* A Mac laptop with specs for studio recording and Graphic and video renderin.
* And....ehmn.....ehmn...let me stop here for now.
Please, tell Grace not to come up and say she wants;
* Human hair
* A pair of Flat sole shoes
* A Full Thanksgiving Chicken
Please, Grace, you know I love you. You know I'm your closest pal. Don't fall my hand o (don't disappoint me) or block my chances. I'll buy you big ice cream when I get all the items on my list.
Thanks for reading.
This is another real situation from My World.
Stay tuned!
Cheers!!!
