ISSUE OF RACISM IN UKRAINE

News abound that label Ukrainians Racist. I’d start by defining racism: racism is prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized. Well I have plenty Ukrainian friends and for once I have never experienced that.
What they have is stereotypical believes about other nationalities, for instance they think Africa is like a jungle filled with wild animals, African love dancing, Africans are happy people. One day a Ukrainian friend of mine asked me if I had a lion. So, the media tells things about us and they believe it. Just like most Africans think that Europeans are Immoral.
Stereotypes and Racism are different things. Instead of labelling people racist, try to understand that they have a certain opinion about you which was a function of what the media shows them.
Ukrainians are happy people, and they love foreigners so much! I remembered my first day in school. I was the only African student in my group. Whenever I answer questions they were so amused at my accent and would grin, I felt like a king. After every lecture, most of the girls would just come and start asking me questions about Nigeria, what I think about Ukraine and many more.
I made lots of friends and whenever I am quiet, they would check up on me to cheer me up and invite me for some dope conversation.
They are super friendly and are always happy to meet foreigners.

You forgot to write how you were scammed by so called agents and how other Africans are being scammed by these same agents
LOL... Well true.. Some agents in Nigeria are quite hungry tho.. Most people that scam are actually the ones that don't have office but you meet them online and they promise they can help you out and all that.. I fell victim of one tho but I was able to recover fast.. The actual person that helped me was in Ukraine, he's white anyway and that's how I got to Ukraine... In Nigeria, any country you decide to travel to and you are probably going through an agent, please if you can't see the agent physically don't deal else you are at your own risks, the agent must have an office so that if anything goes wrong you know how to reach out to him or her.. Anyways I have an office in Nigeria, located at Yaba.. 1 Hussey street Yaba Lagos.. On the same street as Yabatech.. You can reach out to the office and book an appointment as well through 08106954943

Hmm.. You know most people mistake Ukraine for Russia tho...
Going to Canada is good honestly but not everyone is a Canadian student.. If we are looking at a scale of 1 to 100, Canada will pick probably 5 or less due to their updated requirements.. And again Canada is expensive.. For BSc courses we can be looking at school fees ranging from 3m to 5m per year only, not to talk of feeding and accommodation and other miscellaneous.. Canada also takes time in processing visa.. Can one wait for 6 months before getting the good or bad news about his or her visa being denied or granted? And do you know that Canada students sometimes come over to Ukraine to do some courses? Ukraine is known for medicine and engineering...

What could be the total cost of studying Forensic as a graduate course in Ukraine? What language do they speak? What is the cost of living? And how many years does their Masters degree take?
They speak English and Ukrainian language depending on who you are dealing with tho
Cost of living is cheap, we can look at $50 per month.. Their masters degree takes roughly 2 years.. 1 and half year for the program and the remaining 6months for practicals more like projects.. The total cost of studying forensic, well you can budget about $8000 through out your program

This is my Experience
An emotional afternoon as I watch my parent tell me goodbye with tears. They gave me a look that made me think I was going for a suicide mission.

I felt an avalanche of emotional outburst wandering round my belly. The journey I thought was gonna start in laughter and celebration, had an emotional kick off.

Amidst the thrills and tears in the atmosphere; the boarding time came knocking and I had to leave everyone to go embrace the future written in a wall I can't see.

Sometimes, we just have to respond to the calling of the unknown factor. Stepping out of the unknown and embracing the ways of the wild. To me, my time to leave my comfort zone has come and I embraced it emotionally.

After a long flight, we arrived Doha airport. And I was fascinated by the people I saw. Different skin color and hair. And everyone pacing around like there was a bomb blast.
I was just looking like i had no clue; basically, I had no clue.

I was just trying my hardest to decode the enigma in sight like the handwritings on a Babylonian wall.
Soon, one of the security helped me figure out what was in view and I started pacing like everyone else.
It was a necessary factor to pace around. I don't know why, but you just have to run.

The common saying; when you are in Rome, act like the Romans was the perfect description.

Soon, it was time to board for Kiev. And I had to say bye bye to the dormitory of pace.
We got to Kiev airport and a guy from the university picked me up.

I just got the feeling that my real quest had began. My study experience in the number one ranked university in Ukraine: national technical university "Kharkov polytechnic institute" it was a thought full drive from Kiev to Kharkov.

We just have to be ready for challenges. We all long for golden opportunities; but its indeed pretty bad if our opportunity meets us unprepared. I was basically trying to pull up some emotional chords that would be good enough to play the strings life gave me to suite nature's demand on my will to be successful.

Soon it was time for registration as I walk the street of Kharkov beholding the face of it's beauties and building.
Everyone seems to be in hurry and all I did was to be amazed at degree of pace their legs must have accrued.

Soon I found out that there are more ladies than men. This made me think that the ladies will all be in the "please come take me to your mama" vibe. But, along the winks and woos of time; I found that they are happy with themselves and are not in a hurry to fall into the hands of a man.

This discovery opened up a new wave of revelations to my mind and took me down into the basic necessity of livelihood.

You don't search for love, you don't live for love, if you are not happy with yourself, you can't be happy even in love.
The basic rule for happiness is to be happy with yourself.
I learnt that from the Ukrainian ladies, they are always cheerful, beautiful and happy with themselves. This to me is an adorable virtue.

There is a common saying; "Ukrainian women love to cook and wash" this lines made me think of them as entities that would settle for house chores and stuffs that pertains to ancestry being a good wife syndrome.
But I was amazed at the level and degree in which this young damsels embrace academic excellence and personal development. They are not being cut up by the gender role phenomenon, all want to be something worthwhile and build an empire of greatness for themselves.

Amidst all the encroaching wonders in my Wonderland, I had to brace up my loins with diligence and hard work in other to catch up with the pace of the Ukrainians.

Ukraine so far has being an inspiration, it gave me tools that would help me build my success to my taste.

The cheap internet, wonderful subways, cheap food and accommodation only point to one thing " Ukraine is the best country to build up your muse and make self discovery that will enable you handle the world's demand for excellence "

Thinking greatness, equals thinking Ukraine.
