D1o Arrived Safely In London
« on: September 20, 2007, 08:00 AM »

Hello all my peeps in here. Sorry I've been off for a while. Relocating to the Uk was quite enough work to keep me busy. I got here 6 days ago and have been having a lot of mixed feelings about the place. Actually, I felt like going back home the moment I got here. but i think i am loosening up as the days go by. I did my enrollment yesterday and have a student ID card now. I also just got this laptop at pcworld for 299.99 pounds. why them no wan talk say na 300 pounds?

Anyway, I've also asked for a letter of introduction from my uni in order to be able to open a bank account here. I'D be going to get that today. After wards, I'D try getting a job that would fit into my school schedule. From the timetable I was given yesterday, I reckon I'D be studying tuesdays, wednesdays and thursdays, 2-5pm.

Sorry for boring you guys with all these but I actually feel like u r my family because you guys were there during my tension packed entry clearance application.

@funkybaby, paribus, swiftycool, senetee, nkenwanyi, hobGlobin and all the unooficial members of my crew,
thanks for everything. London's a bit cold and wet for me at this time but I guess knowing I've got folk like you actually makes. all the difference.

hasta la vista

Sometimes, I really don't understand some forum members too. This is all about sharing experiences. The content of his post is more than just saying that he has arrived. It does give some information that are of interest to others. For instance, I am not a student, but it is interesting to see the study schedule.

Yes, you can create any travel experience thread on here, no matter how mundane they may seem to you. Even a trip from Lagos to Kano would be of interest to some, I myself have never visited Kano, so it would interest me a great deal.

Omo - one advice - just go solo o - no go dey mix up with all those Naija boys and girls for London o - and make i tell u well well - London no be like Nija o - nobody be your friend o - this one wey u dey expose yourself for here - i sure say when u open the account u go even post the account number for here - na that time u go no say Nija president no be Obj anymore buy na Yar Yar Adua.

O'boy na my 2cents be that o - go solo for London o.

and say laptop na 299.99 and no be 300 - well - for London - them dey use coins well well - and na gimick sha - u go see say everywhere wey u go na so so .99 everywhere.

Omo - la jue for London - no dey go mix up o.
