"Everything you said that is a bad habit, is actually what I want, I don’t like greeting, I just have to force myself to, I love minding my business, not that I have issues with the person oo, Abeg just Dey on your own, I love it that way."

"While you are there please don't change the way you dress. Dress up and stand out!!!! Did you hear that?! Then whenever you visit home Greet everyone you see. Give everyone you see a big and happy smile. Talk & laugh with all your neighbours."

"I disagree on the dressing down. It might just be something simple but people don’t dress down."

Evie said:

"As a Liberian living in the US, I have adopted to everything you stated except the dressing down part. I'm NOT dressing down. Looking good makes me feel happy as a person, and I will NEVER give that up for anything."
