Welcome to Marilyn's Space

And Now lets talk about me:Born in London, but roots stem from Nigeria (yes another one!) the most beautiful country in West Africa!! but til now been quite a migratory soul and lived in quite a few destinations across the UK mainly to get educated. My last stint was four wonderful years in beautiful Bath where i studied an BA hons in French and Politics!I am the eldest of 3 kids i have one bro Dan and one sis Joy and tog with my ma we make a happy home- well i've left home now but you know what i mean! I love my family i have load of cousins, aunts and uncles as Nigerians do and when we get together its electric and i dont just mean the food!!Now back in London im focussing my energies on my career in Athletics. Unlike most athletes athletics has not been a dream of mine since before i could spell it but in the last few years i have come to realise it is something bigger than me but what God has called me to do and ultimately my destiny and im beginning to see what one can achieve when blessed with talent topped up with hard work, discipline and dedication! Im so excited for what the future holds! Im am finally makin my mark on the world stage in the 800m. My second event is the 400m which when/if ever i decide to train for it i fully intend to impact too but for now relay spots are good 4 me! I've been fortunate enough to represent England at the Commonwealth Games, and GB at Europeans outdoors and indoors recently finishing 4th in the latter- by the way thanks to all those who rooted 4 me means da world!! I am UK champion over the 800m indoors and i plan to continue in that fashion this summer im not afraid of HARD WORK or Hurting myself (wrong event/sport if i was hey!!) so i will be pushing myself all the way to hit new heights in 2007- my first season as a fully fledged SENIOR!! so watch this (MY)space!!I love to be around and learn from people from all walks of life, i like to think that i bring something into the lives of all my friends and people i meet! God wants his kids like Jesus to 'Be a light onto His world' (Phillipians 2:15) and i'll do my very best!I love to chat (as you can tell) make friends, give cuddles, socialise tho not too much in my line of work but when i do party i do it hard! Music is my soul food and dancing is great for afters!! Tho chocolate is my biggest weakness!!! isnt it every chicks!?I will stop there so if you wanna know more-you'll just have to ask!!MWA xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx..
