etcme: I think the below information will be useful to some of us.
ON EARNING: Never depend on single income, make investment to create a second income.
ON SPENDING: If you buy things you do not need, soon you will have to sell things you need.
ON RATINGS: Do not save What is left after spending, but spend what is left after saving.
ON TAKING RISK: Never test the depth of a river with both feet.
ON INVESTMENT: Do not put all eggs in one basket.
ON EXPECTATIONS: Honesty is very expensive gift. Do not expect it from cheap people. If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present. Past is a waste paper. Present is a newspaper and future is a question paper. When bad things happen in your life you have three choices. You can either let it define you, let it destroy you or you can let it strengthen you. Empty pockets teach you a million things in life but full pockets spoils you in a million ways. Our eyes are in the front because it is more important to look ahead than to look back. We used pencil when we were small but now we use pens... do you know why?? Because mistakes in childhood can be erased but not now. So read and write carefully otherwise life will be tissue paper.
God bless our efforts

adegab4real007: Guy, thanks for the info. But I have quite a few questions to ask if you don't mind
1. Has UI started the 2014/2015 DE admission process? Because I check their website regularly and the only thing I can see there as of today is for UTME students not DE.

2. I have submitted my credentials to JAMB office, while I have also applied for my Transcript to be sent to UI from Yabatech (I believe it should get to UI in less than a fortnight), and from what you said above, I still have to go to UI to confirm/register the Transcript right?

I'd be grateful if u can kindly reply those two questions. Any other additional details/info will be hugely appreciated. Thank you.

Sanguine: Ehen it is a crime you nor dey speak Engrish and Yoluba together, ehn??

#ok see you#

horbeat: have fg agreed wt ASUU demand? @bidey4real I loss my phone and loos cobtacts. thus I've retrieved my lines u can still get me via my Number.

SalvationMopol: I cant wait to observe the tense of joy when da 2nd list is release wt our names.
my obvious question is:wil funaab b able to release 2nd list wtout interview/screening 4 merit people?

horbeat: Prayer of the day! Just say Amin.
Oh Allah! You are our creator and we are your slaves, your plan for us is the best despite given us free wills to have ours, you know us more than we know ourselves, you know the obvious and the hidden, you know the present and the past, you know all the names in funaab second admission list, for we do not know anything hidden, please our lord, let our name be inclusive, let our plan concide with that you have for us, let your glory manifest in our admission testiminies.
Oh ALLAH! You are the only one that knows,hear and see the black leg of a black ant on the black rock in the dark night, you know our heart and our wishes, we bow before you and you alone we pray onto, please hear our cries and let us rise to glorify you the more with smiles on our lips.
Thanks you the lord of the universe.

horbeat: You revive my hope again, thanks bros. Thus my faith is strong about the admission but most time when the admission suspense lingered in my brain, I got weary. And anytime I clicked on the thread on my phone to read peoples comments on the admission process, and read something like. Guy you need long leg to be admitted, sigh, quo pro quo, and if I remembered the way I loss the admission last year, I will felt shocked,my mind will trembled and fatigue will cover me up. No sooner that all these happened, than I realiazed the admission thought and fear of loosing again had occupied lager part of me... I became less productive, can't write my daily article on my facebook group page, no inspiration to write poems as usual, everyday look dark and tomorrow seems a thousand years to come, can't focus on prayer anymore, only to be in deep thought about funaab admission, will I still wait for another 365 days to come? What next will I do if this admission did not click, yes am working but it's not about work, rather about my dream. I have to start something meaningful.
To erase all these. I have to delete my acct on nairaland and take a bold step to search for what will give me succur.
For God so great, i found my love, gues who? A book tilled take the risk by ben carson,after I finished reading the book while at work, I read about a book event on google search, coming up in lagos titled " Lagos book and art festival" I delibrately volunteer to paticipate in organising this event, I knew if I did, it will reduce my thinking about funaab admission, if not totally erase it. Thank God the program is still ongoing and I'm paticipating, meeting writers and literature genius everyday of the event make me come back alive. Thus, I still expect good news from funaab as my hope is still strong in Allah.
My advice to rkarang, if you are someone like me,who only have Funaab as option, pls go out there, find something that interest you the most, that can keep you at poise in thinking about funaab admission, although, que cera cera, but we just have to hope in God.
We shall all smile and give testimony of our own admission into funaab too in couple of days to this time, as other member on this first list of funaab and other schools have did.

Yours sincerely
Usuf.saeed.

rkarang: It's a pity '80. ••%' still cries for admission. Sometimes, I wonder what have we done to the world?

When the admission processes lingered in my head; I would sigh, then closed my two lips as if words would rush out of my mouth. Then, I would ruefully say 'ah, ah OMG'.

Sometimes, I would cry and would feel like "I should have, could have bla bla bla" but a question would overwhelm these-the question, "what if the gift of life had gone?".

Oh, the pain I feel most is these f**cking 365 days that will be added to my decades on earth. There's no need for 'sorry msgs' cos we can't draw back the hands of time.

Above all, have learnt to adopt the pace of our dear Nigeria and never to rely 'solely on grade'. I'm not gonna give in to defeat, the struggle 'continues'.

When a man is rejected; he becomes wiser and humbler. I'm pretty sure that sun will shine again. Tomorrow is promising like a promising child.

Oh; Oh God is with us like my name, Emmanuel implies, so close to us.

Unfortunately, I'm leaving the thread in this horrible mood, it's time to unfollow the thread.

So I wanna say, I'm very much delighted to thank all the thread members; you guys are amiable.

Goodbye Daniel, Ayoade and all the members here! You're Winners, Champions and Legends!!!
