Dear Yvonne Orji,

    Lol..i keep saying Lilian Orji but I have to correct myself always..Yvonne..

it feels somehow saying that name.. it's a beautiful name,classic even but I guess it feels weird (?) Cause it seems like a name a girl trying to be cool and classy adopts for herself not something a parent would give a Child..it's making me think of how cool your parents think or was it societal influence? Exposure ? that made them name you Yvonne..it's too classy and artificial..makes me wonder 'What does it mean??'.

Don't get me wrong or pick offense..Yvonne is a beautiful name but personally I like names that have personality,that have meaning,depth..not just plain,empty,corny white names..

That's my naked truth..

I'm Im wondering what you think of what I think..You deserve a better name..Don't ask what I would call you..the time I have right now is too short to search and pick a name as beautiful as you for you..Maybe I'm gassing you up a bit  but I like the way Lilian Orji rolls on my tongue..sounds like a billionaire name..although it's Yvonne Orji that is THE BILLIONAIRE😉 😁

If you have a brother link me up with him..we will name your Niece Lilian Orji..I'm starting to like your name now that I have said it alot😁😁.

I have a question Vivian (Lol..Vivian goes to) how in the world did you end up wishing to be a comedian? How did that passion grow?? Did you not think it was crazy to want to be a stand up comedian as a Girl? As a Nigerian?

 Did America help you feel safe about this dream??

Cause I want to be a writer Yvonne..Write books,articles,scripts,direct movies..

Every dream is valid I know.. but Logically, some don't make sense.Ofcourse I love writing,I'm fairly good at it but does it mean I should write? For a living? 

What would I really write out of writing to make it a living??

 I ask myself this questions..but even though this questions should be enough to make me sceptical..when I think of my future, writing is the only thing that makes senses,that adds happiness,that I want to spend life doing..

Not to jinx it but I got to try..if it does not work out I'll know it did not work out..it's better than letting this spark I have for writing die out like that..rather than starve it to death..not fight for it..

Did you have such fears,thoughts,worries about comedy??

How were you certain that you'll be able to make people laugh for real,be funny, not be the girl who thinks she's funny?

I give it to you you're good..you were so calm and collected on that stage..so in control..So 'No stress' about everything..I didn't catch you being nervous or trying to impress us.. it's like you are just being you and I don't know how much to tell you how awesome that is.

I didn't expect you to be funny,

But you were and you had no bad jokes

And although I did not laugh through at the entire show..I could not possibly deny that none of your jokes were bad...

How did you know this was your thing?

Do you freestyle?

Do you write jokes then perform them ??

What makes comedians confident enough to think that they can make a room of people laugh?

Not one person,

Not your friends,

Not your family..but a room of people you don't know,who may not like you.

That is boldness in Caps!!

You've motivated me

That my dreams don't have to be popular. It has to be my dream and I have to follow it through..

I hope i see you one day..

I hope we hang out one day.. 

I hope i show you this letter one day and you write back..

I hope you tell me one day.'See? Our dreams are both alike and different and we still conquered it..'

I hope i make me proud one day..

I love you ❤❤

With loads of Respect,
