Originalsly, you should stop giving that pidggin2 fellow attention. You should banish her firmly from your thread just as franknetter did. He/she/it tends to be silly most times. Rebuke that foolishness strongly and it would flee from your thread.
Open forum... from comments we can learn about people and their mindset .... in this case ... how desperation to travel abroad can lead to a high level of envy of those who have. Should you get a visa. .. keep it hush-hush since such people would have no problem adding sniper to your Fanta.

Are you not aware that one can get these pictures from Google and even take a tour around New York on YouTube?
Ogini? Carry your bitterness away from here joor, that was how you derailed Franknetter American thread. Do you have issues with those going abroad? No one is asking for your opinion, if you love Nigeria, stay. Abi dem force you to go amrica?(in jenifa's voice). Leave it for people who enjoy the thread and keep your opinion to yourself.

@ originalsly,
I have to hail you sha. No b small money you don spend. I was in New Jersey last year. I know how much i spend. I stayed in a self catering hotel (no family there). From NJ went to New York by bus (Port Authority). There is no way you will visit such places and not be overwhelmed with admiration at the way things work, that is if you didnt grow in the US. At the Port Authority terminal in New York there is free wifi. I was skeptical about connecting to it. You know say awoof dy run belle. I later connected sha. I just dey browse. Meanwhile i just read yesterday that there is free wifi in our BRT buses in Lagos, am yet to confirm that ( i guess we are making progress, imagine if the governor was not enlightened.) My own pictures from New York and Atlanta has my face showing so I will not upload them just like you.
I was in Atlanta too. I experienced vehicular traffic there o! Its not funny when the taxi meter is counting and you are caught in traffic. Additinal 10 mins na money o! I have two pictures from CNN center in Atlanta. One of the offices with The people working in the background. If you pay small money you can tour some places there. A lot goes into what we see finally on the CNN. This type of education cannot be read in books.
This life na once. Na wetin bird chop he dey fly with for belle.

I feel I should edit this my post because of a wrong assumption. Just want to correct my assumption. Originalsly has already told me to take life easy . I am working on that. Hey! thats why I even travelled in the first place. cheesy

Originalsly seems to be based in the US all along and did not travel from Nigeria to go on vacation to the US as I assumed. So his spending is not like someone that travels from Nigeria for that purpose.

Shalom.

Although I was a silent follower of your thread, I noticed all her negativity and she killed the fun for me due to her utterances, there were too many argument, and now she came here again to rant. As usual, some good citizens just like to shove their opinions down your throat like you asked for it. People should learn to keep their opinions to themselves especially when no one asked for it.
