Do you Know your height Statistics?..Learn How To Measure it Yourself here.

Recently,i asked a female friend her height statistics..She just stared at me and gave me this "you are not serious look"..Well,we were dragging about who was taller than the other..anyways,i stood up just beside her and alas I was taller than her..hahahaha

Growing up and getting registered for any official thing,there's always a column asking for your height details(Models can attest to this).
When I got admission to the University years back,i remember being asked to stand on a metal frame that had calibrations on a long ruler looking rod sunk into it...

So now I ask you,how tall are you? Do you know your height statistics?
Here's a do -it -yourself tutorial I got from Wikihow.com

Steps

  1. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 1.jpg
    1
    Gather a small box, a mirror, and a pencil to have within reach before you begin. Hold the box in one hand, and the mirror and the pencil in the other. Or, find a wall space that faces a mirror to avoid having to hold a hand mirror.
  2. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 2.jpg
    2
    Take off your shoes. Measure your height when you are barefoot, so that the length of your body does not include any heels. Even flip flops and slippers will affect the measurement, so make sure you are completely barefoot.
  3. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 3.jpg
    3
    Remove anything from your head.Do not wear a hat or a headband, and take your hair out of any high buns or ponytails. Keep your hair flat on the top of your head.
  4. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 4.jpg
    4
    Find a flat surface against a solid wall. Hard floors work best. Stand against the wall with your feet together.
  5. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 5.jpg
    5
    Make your body as straight as possible. Move your heels, butt, shoulders, and head back against the wall and make sure all of those body parts are touching the wall. Tuck in your chin and look straight ahead. You want your body to be as straight as possible.
  6. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 6.jpg
    6
    Raise a small box to the top of your head, and press it against the wall. Use a mirror to make sure the box is horizontal. Tilting it or letting it slide will cause an inaccurate measurement.
  7. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 7.jpg
    7
    Mark the position of the top of your head on the wall with a pencil. If possible, hold the box in its position and slide out from under it. Mark the place on the wall where the bottom of the box is resting. If you are unable to move from under the box without causing its position to shift, make the mark while holding the box on your head.
  8. Measure Your Height by Yourself Step 8.jpg
    8
    Measure from the floor to the pencil mark with a measuring tape. Keep the measuring tape flat against the wall.
  9. It's easy right?...I guess you can go ahead and get to know your height stats now.

I don't like guys with mouth odour-Eniola Badmus

Eniola Badmus became a major hit in the blockbuster movie ‘’Jenifa’ as the ‘Gbogbo Big Girls’, where she played the role of a madame who rented out girls on campus to big men. Then she kept with the same stereotype in ‘`Omo Ghetto’ where she was a leader of bad ghetto girls. Ever since, the coast has been all yummy for Eniola who has become a hotcake with movie producers. She recently celebrated her birthday in New York and had the elite of the movie industry in attendance. As Potpourri star this week, Eniola lets us into her world: What movies have you done this year? There’s Uchechi  The Blind Cripple, A Child In Me , and many others. We shoot movies every other day, so I can’t even remember, I’ve lost count Which one is your biggest movie so far? Basically, I’ve done series of films that I feel are successful.
