Yes we all know that the materialistic nature of a lot of girls in Nigeria is disgraceful. But please don't pretend like guys in Nigeria don't also act in a disgraceful way towards those that have travelled out of Nigeria. That's the Nigerian way, they feel that once you are out of Nigeria you have made it. We are a product of our environment.
For those saying that Nigerian girls have low mentality, point of correction majority of Nigerians(men and women) living in have a low mentality. You think a Nigerian girl outside Nigeria will want a Nigerian man? Sorry it goes both ways. This country is messed up.

Very True...I don't want to go spiritual but I have to make reference to a preaching by Pastor Mensah otabil on mindsets. He said everyone is a product of "world views " , if you are a Nigerian , there's a way u see the world whether differently from someone who is from another country... the way an american will view issues relating to politics ,dating , religion etc is completely different from the way a Nigerian will view these things. ....we are all product of world views.

Toooo bad , and one of the things that make it "badder" than it should is the way we make every wrong doing on this planet earth look right. That's why I don't blame people like the Op that left uni to start allover in america.... when you live in a chaotic/disorderly environment for too long ...it builds your culture ...same thing when you live in an orderly society

Let's not spoil this beautiful thread with Naija talks grin

Yup! Renewed yearly. That's one of the way they maintain the good roads here, etc. For a regular car here in Illinois it's $108 yearly. Multiply that by the millions of cars on the road.

$108 shocked

So because someone who is a Nigerian rapes your wife, all
Nigerians you meet or hear about are potential rapists. Can you see your folly?
You can decide to be patriotic or not, I am not going to hold you for that.
What I will not accept is your 2-year-old-like thinking of disparaging others
for their nationality or religion or any other kind of affiliation because of what others did.
People like you are the problem with America, Nigeria and the world. Your haughtiness
stinks to the heavens and you need a reality check. Apparently, you have learned nothing
here in America. Just because you have a better standard of living now, the beast in you
cannot be tamed again. Yes, many Nigerians are lazy. Many Nigerians are criminals.
But so are many other nationalities too including Americans. Also, there are many hardworking
and good natured people from Nigeria. Stop this crass display of backwardness and get in line.
I really thought you were just passionate but it is obvious you have real issues to deal with.
Bigotry and ignorance.

Sugar ants


It's when you become successful (or enter yankee and upload some pictures on social media) you'll realize why some ladies are tagged "sugar ants".

Don't get me wrong, some people are indeed honorable , but honestly, this has to be said. Some nigerian ladies have no shame, like I said in my previous post, ladies in nigeria find it hard to approach a guy first, I guess I was wrong. Some of them even go as far as sending you nudes in a bid to start up conversation. I'm thinking of deleting my Facebook account, but no, I won't let them bully me with their nude pictures.

Even the ones that were forming virgin when I was in nigeria, have started promising me pvssy, that I should come back to nigeria to see them. Each time they ask "when are you coming back?" My reply is "to do what?" grin so because you promised me pvssy, I should enter plane and start flying back to nigeria? grin pvssy no dey yankee? grin

Settling in


As a fairly good-looking fella, when i went to church last Sunday, i was getting lots of stares from the females. grin grin


ha! where do i start from?? so much has happened this week.
=============================================================================

the weather has gone from bad to worse; my cousins who have been warning us about how cold chicago gets werent joking at all. If someone had told me that you would not feel the warmth of the sun even when its up there shinning down at you, I wouldnt have believed. grin

Some days back, i woke up around 8:00am (or so), peeked out the window, saw the sun up and blazing. It snowed the night before and I thought it would be nice to open up the garage door and shovel the driveway while wearing just my boxer shorts and one polo grin grin grin grin grin

kai! As I opened up the garage door, the cold hit me like a trailer! in my haste to run back inside, i even left the garage door open. grin grin
had to go back inside and dress like an eskimo for the task at hand.


================================================================================

the other day, I, my siblings and my cousins went sight-seeing. towards the evening, we drove past one nice neighborhood where almost all the houses were beautifully decorated with christmas lights. I was just thinking in my mind that these people dont know what to use money for grin grin


I don even miss many sweet parts before, I'm starting from the first page this time around. I think Frank is always busy these days.
