S.K.B, which stands for Stina Ke Boza, not only means 'taking your man from you is the best way to go' but also, in a broad sense, means doing whatever it takes to get what you want is the best if not the only way to go.

For some years now I've lived my life the S.K.B way, pushing any obstacle in my path to the side and doing anything to get me where Im going. Its fun, you know, having no sense of false pride. When you dont know something you ask and when needed will steal, beg or borrrow. Stepping on toes and taking names with the greatest of ease. Turning doubters into believers and giving haters reason. Never backing down when you're right and always proving to be worthy without breaking a sweat.

Did I mention: never shying away from stabbing a few backs in exchange for a playmate?

With Kelis's Bossy on heavy rotation on your minds ipod, you look out for number one and in my case I (#1) am also number two and three.

Then, just when you're most comfortable on that high horse your parents have another child, you're no longer nana and magically your birth name is in full use or some man snatching bitch comes along and wreaks your home. (ok, so she isnt necessarily a bitch but you are angry as hell so it will have to do for now.) Your new colleague gets a welcome to the office party with cake and all that jazz when all you got was a 'theres your desk' when you were the new girl a week ago or how your movie thursdays/ girls gone wild fridays are traded in for romantic evenings and P.D.A when your mates get new love interests. Worst yet you end up not even getting that business/social position you've spent most of your life hurting others to get.

Faster than you can say S.K.B you're the one left in the dust with a dagger through the heart or in the back (which ever one comes first). So before you are too quick to pull the rag from under someone else's feet remember: what goes around comes around.
