Hey cheer up!!!

Like they say, "no good thing comes easy in life"

u just be patient because am sure everyone's got one problem or the other and urs might be the slightest.

don't give up. Try to do some other things u never did before. Travel out of your boundaries, xplore other opportunities.

“Life is like a box of chocolates. . . you never know what you're going to get.”

Life is too short to be depressed, live it to the fullest!

Hey girl friend have faith in God and search harder or better still go for ur masters if u can afford it.cheers

U can reach me on amoto2005@yahoo.co.uk if you feel the need to discuss. God Bless

just god for ur live

My darlin, I don't see any reason why you should hate yourself because you don't have a job. Are you the only one in this condition? Let me tell you, there are thousands, if not million, of Nigerian Graduates walking our streets without job. So why feeling depressed for a plague that's ravaging everybody? I felt the same way after my service, but after attending aptitude tests where innumerable graduates converge, no matter the position advertised, I got consoled and wait for MY TIME, which must surely come.

Blue2 said it very well--you know who your REAL friends are in your time of feeling down.

Remember, cuddle, any job you have is what you do, not who you are.  You can be--as I'm sure you are--a truly wonderful person no matter what your employment status is.  Most of us have been there, my dear.  And, you're quite right--it's not an easy place to be!  It's frustrating and challenging, but you will get past this phase.  Please let your true friends help you through it.  Don't isolate yourself, and please keep laughing and loving life!  Why not take the volunteer job at the orphanage?  It will help you occupy your time and make you feel better about yourself.  Who knows?  It might even lead to a paying job, there.

I have faith in you--you'll get your groove back in no time at all!  

Keep posting here so that we'll know how you're doing, because clearly we care!

Dear girl, hope d best will come soon for u. But u've got to cheer up and mix with people. Even job interviews require u 2 b cheering. In all situations always find a way 2 make d best good out of it.

Girl,i feel your pain and i want you to know that at the end of the Tunnel there is always light.The most important thing is that you are undergoing a training to know that life is not a bed of roses and to know who your true friends are.Believe me,this is only temporary
