are you trying to say that june is a month of badluck mind you it is my month cool.
my dear, not really ok? I meant in terms of bad news especially of high number of recorded deaths. Sorry ok my dear, but in the same June, God still favoured you to celebrate your birthday so bad news is not your portion ok?

Let's assume you saw a laptop of 97K. You didn't have the cash, so you borrowed 50K from ur mom and 50K from ur dad = 100K. You bought the laptop which left you with 3K change. You gave ur dad 1K and ur mum 1K and kept the other 1K to yourself. Now you owe your mum 49K and ur dad 49K. Now 49K+49K = 98K + ur 1K kept = 99K.Where is the missing 1K?I know you are intelligent. Solve it and tell me the answer....
like like play this question hard.

*MODIFIED*
the 1k in your hand shld be subtracted, not added. thats 98k + (-1k) = 97k.

50k(mother)+50k(father)=100k
100k - 97k(laptop)= 3k
3k - 2k(returned to parents)= 1k
1k - 1k(in your possession)= 0k

this is the actual calculation

Considering the antecedents of folks over there, it's not out of place for there to have been foul play. I think an autopsy should be conducted into death.
An athlete who went swimming with friends and only him got drowned begs more questions than answers. If he isn't good at swimming, he wouldn't get close to a swimming pool let alone a massive lake.

Maybe I'm overly suspicious, buh the matter shouldnt go off like that.

My brother, you don't know what peer pressure can do.

I remember years ago when I hung out with friends. After everything, they wanted to go swimming. I didn't want to go because I can't swim but they pressured me into go. When they got there, I didn't even UnCloth talkless of entering the water but again, the pressure got to me.

I remember going down in the middle of the water and starred jumping up. My supposed friends didn't even notice. Thank God for an eagle eyed stranger. Someone would have typed RIP for me back then.

Since that day, I have been scared of any water that is more than 1 litre.

How tragic. Though the title should be changed as it gives the impression he is a professional football player. He is attending university on a soccer scholarship and even nursed the ambitions to get to med school .... no easy feat in the US.

Rest in Peace. Blacks don't do adventures. Whites die every minutes doing extreme death defying stunts and play. Too dangerous to go camping with your white friends too. You just might have yourself killed.

Idowu hung out with friends on Thursday night and heard that they had planned to go swimming in a lake 40 miles northeast of Columbus on Friday. That was the last his friend Jensen, a fellow Ohio State University player, heard of him.

The following day, a Saturday, Jensen, while picking up another friend, got a call that Idowu died the night before; he drowned while swimming with friends.

“I knew a few people had been invited,” Jensen, told the press. “I just figured I’d stay home. I had to lift, I had to practice. We kind of hung up the phone, and we kind of just looked at each other wondering if it was real.”

“I didn’t believe it at first,” another teammate Tyler Kidwell said. “He was one of my best friends on the team.”

According to reports:

“Idowu was a defender on the Buckeyes team who had played since 2014. He was a junior enrolled in a premed program. Friends said he wanted to be a surgeon.

Idowu was from Madison, Mississippi, and was majoring in health and rehabilitation sciences while planning to attend medical school. He was an Ohio State Prominence Scholar and a two-time OSU Scholar-Athlete.”

His teammates have since been mourning him, but the Knox County sheriff’s office has refused to release details of the 19-year-old’s death.

“As I understand it, they just went up for the end of the day after classes,” John Bluem, his coach, told Columbus Dispatch. “They just went up to go for a swim.”

Idowu was born to Nigerian parents who are currently based in the United States.
