My Dearest Naa Ayele 💓

To the girl of my dreams
From the guy who believes you’re undeniably enough

My Dearest Naa Ayele,

If I was your West, would your eyes' sun set on me?
If I was your East, would your heart’s sun rise in joy from seeing me?
If I was your North, would your life’s compass always point to me?
If I promised to forever remain faithful, work on myself, right all my wrongs, worship the very ground you walk on, would your love for me still go south?

I don’t remember when we first met or the first words we ever spoke but I swear, my life has never been…no!
Scratch that, my life has never been, my life will never be the same.
I am only but a man but any time I see you, I feel I am one with the wind – I can fly.
I am only a few decades old but I feel I have seen it all when my eyes steal glimpses at you.
You embody everything perfect and true and divine and everything twice.
You paint my mind with picturesque images only heaven could conjure.
Whoever drew your curves has to be the universe’s greatest cartographer

God gave the whole world oxygen but my lungs are allergic to it when you’re away.
The only air that gives life to my frail life is your sweet scented breath.
Death stares blatantly if you are not within my eye’s reach.
Your fierce fine fair face drowns out my voice like how the darkness sinks the sun’s rays anytime I see you
There is a lot I want to say that lurk behind my simple hello’s and hi’s
Everything about you is addictive! A drug I can never get enough of
I have never needed anything more than I need you

Aah my dearest Naa Ayele,
You can ask the secretary of God for how many times I’ve petitioned her office to ask God to make you mine
You are in every word I ever wrote or any word I ever spoke
You linger on my mind all day long till sleep steals me briefly only for you to consume all of me again
The only good thing about sleeping now is the visits and the dinners
Did I tell you about the last time we went to the Bahamas?
Don’t worry, I will tell you when we meet tonight.

I can promise you heaven and the riches of Solomon in all of its splendour and grandeur
I can promise you all the sweetness in the honey bears long for
But all I want to do is to spend the rest of my days kissing the tears from your eyes every single day and light smile bulbs in your eyes
All I want is to listen to you how your day went after the day is spent as your heart beat against my chest
All I want to do is to stare into your dark cute eyes and imbibe all the wisdom and intellect till the silver moon hangs no more
All I want to do is to be first face that brings you joy and the last face to bring you sadness
I want to be the reason why crying will never be an option making my shoulders obsolete for crying on

I swear, you’ll dwell in my heart all the days of my life
My life’s mission and vision statement would be this, and this only,
“To make you laugh and smile till death do us part”.
On our wedding day please tell the Pastor to skip the ” I dos” because I already did!
I would leave this world if I am to live without you
No second thoughts or useless doubts
Because tell me, what better fortune can life ever bless me with that you don’t exceed a gazillion times over?
You’re the only promise land I’ll sacrifice everything to chase

My only regret is that I am mortal and eventually I would die having only a lifetime to love you with a love all divinities would envy.
I hope your eyes see this letter but your heart actually does the reading.
Always know that till the suns light dim and the oceans become Sahara, I will love you no matter where you are, who you are with, or even if you never love me back because sometimes it feels like talking to a goddess who will never talk back.

--Prince George

THE WAIT

Illustration. Credit: HIOS The past they say hunts you down . But to get someone who overlooks all the past and says, ''Hey you deserve another shot'', has always been a one in a million event. We met in the weirdest of ways but we have grown to become the best of friends. If anyone had told me things would have grown this fast between us, I wouldn't have believed. Today I stare at your pictures and I can literally smell you. ''Am I getting mad?'', I ask myself. Maybe, no; probably yes. But if I would go mad because of the person who although I needed a new start due to my past transgressions, yet believed in me, then I wouldn't think twice about it. I guess the light I see in her is what she sees in me. We are taking things slow, not rushing a thing; trusting Your timing, not pushing when we need to pull--step by step, growth by growth--not  missing even a single nano-detail of the process. Am I mad to wait till you are ready?  For I...

Non-stick surface technology

By Hilda Kafui Nuworku [3min read] Non-stick is a surface engineered to reduce the ability of other materials to stick to it. Non-stick is often used to refer to surfaces coated with Polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE),  but in the 21st century other coatings have been marked as non-stick, such as anodized aluminum,  ceramics, cast iron, carbon steel and many others. Cast iron, carbon steel, cast aluminium and steel cookware may be seasoned by applying fat to the surface and heating to polymerize the fat. This produces a dry hard smooth, hydrophobic coating, which is non-stick when food is in it. Polytetrafluroethylene is a synthetic fluoropolymer or tetrafluoroethylene that has numerous applications. Its well known brand is Teflon® , by Chemours,  a polymer company. PTFE molecular structure. PC: susbtech.com Properties of PTFE: It's a fluorocarbon solid, with a high molecular weight. It's hydrophobic due to the high electronegativity of Fluorine. It ...

The 'thinking metal': Shape Memory Alloy

Nitinol wires. PC: Wikpedia By Francis Agyemang, Member of the Editorial Team, MATESA KNUST We are the intelligent metal alloys !!! Yes! People prefer to call us shape memory alloys and it is the name we well deserve. We never forget our shape when thermal or mechanical load is exerted on us. Once the load is removed, we regain our pre-deformed shape. Our thermal deformation is very unique, unlike other metals, we deform under low temperatures and regain our shapes upon heating. Our effect (shape memory effect) was first discovered in an alloy of gold and cadmium (AuCd) by Swedish physicist Arne Olander in 1932. 2D view of nitinol's crystalline structure during cooling/heating cycle The two most prevalent smart alloys are copper-aluminium-nickel (CuAlNi) and nickel-titanium ( Nitinol). Though we have many uses and potential applications, we are commonly used in mending broken bones and making of dental braces. A nitinol paperclip bent and recovered aft...

Vibranium - The Wonder of Wakanda

Black Panther wearing Vibranium suit. PC: ucf.edu If you've ever thought that the Vibranium metal used in the Black Panther movie is a real material, you're possibly mistaken. What is Vibranium? Sourced from a meteorite that landed in Wakanda many centuries ago, Vibranium provides the superpower in the main character’s suit, absorbing energy and redistributing it. Vibranium (/vaɪˈbreɪniÉ™m/) is a fictional metal appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, noted for its extraordinary abilities to absorb, store, and release large amounts of kinetic energy. Mined only in Wakanda, the metal is associated with Black Panther, who wears a suit of vibranium, and with Captain America, who bears a vibranium-steel alloy shield which has never been reproduced. Real-world Material In 2016, Hyperloop Transportation Technologies developed a real-world smart composite material that they named Vibranium. The lightweight carbon fiber material for the Hyperloop ...
