Assignment 03 - About the Author

I was brought into the world for the sole reason of making it awesome. I was raised as an urban Nigerian and despite my larger than life frame, was given a smaller than significant character. This contradiction began my never ending desire to forever defy expectations and all that could be presumed from me.

After a 15 year period of being groomed with the most elegant living and the most pathetic and emotionally scarring aspects of the Nigerian-British education system, I was then sent to Texas to finish off my hi school years.

Hi-school was where I first realized my potential. It seemed that all I had learned in my past residence had taught me the evils of humanity and the frailties of all people. So while I apprenticed under my aunt, one of the greatest chefs of them all, I also worked on manipulating and controlling the minds of my fellow colleagues. I also learnt the benefits of hard work as well as creating the illusion of hard work and finally, where the balance between the two lay.

Once I had arrived in college I realized that all that I believed I had learned was for nothing. As it turns out we all end up is the same boat as everyone else. The differences only mean different techniques must b e applied to reach out goals. Kinda saddening... but also kinda Nice.

I mean, it means this world is balanced in the end. No group is overpowered.

Unless god decides to Nerf Asian gamers... those guys are just too good.
