what's the game about?

100 players are dropped in an island, you search for ammunition and supplies to aid in your fight for survival. Last man or team standing gets a chicken dinner.

I'm curious, is "sutor bank" just an example you used or you actually opened an account with them?

Well I knew this was going to happen...

Anowax:
Was it on the 2nd of June that he made the order for you or did you pay earlier than the said date because it takes some days for items to be processed before shipping? Just want to get something clearer cos your delivery date seems fast

You're right.. I paid for it on 29th, it was dispatched on the 2nd.

ganie:
Please can you help me with how the whole process(es) went,i intend buying a mid range xiaomi phone which i dont really know much about.

rust6:

I didn't order it myself, I got it through Holuwaxheun..

fibonacci2526:
Looks like you bought the Chinese version and the seller unlocked your BL to flash the global rom. Everything is ok. Congrats on your new device.

Thanks

Gptech:
Cassie five? Cassie no 5? . You paid #1200? , those guys are mean! The 'unlocked' shows your bootloader is unlocked already, many people will be happy if their bootloader is unlocked already like yours. Abeg wen u dey buy your Mi 8 EE, since this one na testing testing? Welcome o jare.

Thank you, good to know it's already unlocked..

I'll probably buy the Mi 10 in 2020

Got my device today thanks to Holuwaxheun, he was very patient with my continuous and persistent questions.
This is my first xiaomi device and I thought I should use this Redmi 5 plus to test the waters.. It's the 4gb Ram 64gb Rom variant and I'm loving it so far.
The package was shipped on 2nd June and arrived Nigeria last week on the 13th of June but I couldn't pick it up then because of the public holidays. I paid #1,200 at the office before collection.

PS: When I powered the device, it showed "device unlocked" briefly before booting, what does that mean please?

Hello Guys,


- The prepaid Courier Envelop should be self-addressed right.

Thank you

When you're purchasing it, they'll ask for the Senders and Receiver's address.
So the sender should be:
THE GERMAN EMBASSY
THE CONSULAR GENERAL
15 WALTER CARRINGTON CRESCENT
VICTORIA ISLAND
NIGERIA
And the receiver should be your residential address..

You sound a lot like Pidgin2 @travelland

Palla:
but if get to Germany will I be allow to be withdrawing 735 instead of 720

Yes

Palla:
do you know if I can still change it?

I don't know, maybe you should email them and ask..

Palla:
but according to fintiba they stated that the amount to transfer is 9009 euro

When you opening the Block account, you were supposed to change the default amount from 735 to 720euros, that's why you're now being asked block 9009. If you had changed it, you would have been asked to block 8829 euros.

This is for the NEWBIES

Most of the schools in Germany are tuition free even for international students, you only get to pay a certain amount as semester fees say between 100-400 euros and most times the semester fee comes with a semester ticket to aid in transportation in your city or town.
However, before you're granted a student visa, you have to prove that you can take care of your living expenses with one of the following means ;
1. Block account: The estimated living expenses for a student in a month is 720euros, when you multiply that by 12 months, you get 8640euros. This is the amount you're required to block in an already opened account with either Deutsch bank, Fintiba or Xpatrio. It is called a block account because you will not be able to withdraw everything at once, only 720euros will be released to you every month.
2. Sponsorship letter: If you have a relative living and working legally in Germany, they can get you this letter. They'll have to visit the alien office in their city and will be required to provide some documents and pay a certain fee. The letter will be sent to you when they receive it so that you can go with it for your visa interview.
3. Scholarship: This is usually the best if you have the scholarship, your visa will be granted in under 2 weeks after interview. So try and look for scholarships you can apply to.

Now that you understand the financial situation, let's go into the application process.
To search for schools, click on this link
https://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programmes/en/?p=l&q=&fos=0&lang[]=2&fee[]=0&sortBy=1&page=1&display=list
filter your search to make it easier, there are English taught courses there.
Generally, the very important documents needed to apply to schools in Germany are;
1. Transcript
2. English Proficiency
3. School Certificates (Degree, Waec, etc)
However, depending on the school, some other documents needed are as follows.
4. Curriculum Vitae
5. Motivation letter
6. Reference letters
7. GRE test
8. Etcetera.. Visit your prospective school website and find out the documents they need from you.
Note: You don't apply with your original documents, you have to make photocopies of them and Certify them in High court or a Notary public. If you stay in Lagos, you can certify at the German Embassy too. You'll have to book appointment for that.
For those planning to go for a Bachelors course, you need a 100level transcript from a university to apply for a BSc program in germany. WAEC alone will not be enough and No, OND will not do, you need a HND.

For the application proper, it is always important to go through the website of the schools you want to apply to, you'll get a lot of information form there concerning how to apply. Some schools do only online applications, some requires that you send your application documents to them by post after applying online, some you send your documents as pdf to their email address and then you get the uni assist crew.
Like I said earlier, it is important to go visit and read the websites.

When you get your admission letter, open a block account immediately(that is if you don't already have a sponsorship letter) and as soon as you get your account details, send an email to the embassy requesting for a visa interview date.
You need these to get an interview date:
1. Admission letter
2. Block account/sponsorship letter/scholarship letter
3. International passport data page(scanned)
Then your Full name and Resident address.

Prepare for your interview
Go for your interview
Wait for your Approval mail(AM)
Get your AM
Congratulations and Welcome to Deutschland.

Hints:
- Please try and read previous posts, there are a lot of information in the previous threads. It'll do you a lot of good if you read a least one thread say part 3..
- If you have a specific question, you can always use Google to search for it. Use the key words "nairaland" and "German thread" after you've typed in your question on Google. For example, "where can I notify my documents, nairaland, German thread". This has helped me a lot too.
- Please while you're doing all the waiting, try and learn the language. You can use apps like Duolingo or you can learn on YouTube. But it is best to register in a German language school, I believe you'll learn faster that way.
- Do no hesitate to send an email to your school regarding any questions you might have, you'll be surprised how willing they are to help.

If there's any mistake in this right up, please bring my attention to it so that I can modify.

Justwise, could you please paste this information on the first page of the new thread. Thank you.

Following...

If I begin to tell stories of what I went through in FGC Okposi as a junior student, this will be a very long post.

The second most memorable thing that I experienced was when I received an expected unexpected slap from a senior student.
Yes you read right, it was an expected slap and at the same time very unexpected.
That was the day I truly understood that you can really see stars after being slapped. I was deaf for some moments after that.
Truly unforgettable..

My first most memorable experience was on another level..

But Boarding school was till fun despite all that.

I love dark themes..

lanre316:
I see that you pm me on nairaland. I don't use email I use for nairaland anymore. If you want to reach me, you can quote me and give me your email or WhatsApp contact and I will get back to you.

Thanks...

cassiev Vs Cassie74....

What did I do?

KillaBeauty:
I am trypophobic and I remember the first time I googled it, I literally had goosebumps all over. Even shît and blood doesn’t irritate me as much as those pictures

I can imagine, it's not funny at all.

For people who are trypophobic, DO NOT Google Trypophobia. You'll regret it.

Reski:
Sorry for the too many questions bros. Do you need to provide proof of sponsorship after paying into the blocked account.

No you don't, you either use the Block account or the Sponsorship letter..

Reski:
Please is it the total sum you need for an 18 months masters program in germany? Or do you need 4m every semester?..

That's the living expenses for 1 year. Most German schools are tuition free, you'll only have to pay between 150-300 euros per semester depending on the school.

oke48:
As stated Birth Certificate from National Population Commission or Declaration of Age deposed to by head of Family (Please note that an NPC birth certificate may only be accepted if the applicant is born after December 13th, 1992). From the statement, a Declaration of Age is sufficient.

He said he was born in 1993, shouldn't he use the NPC birth certificate instead?

When I first listened to it yesterday I heard Yanny, later on I heard Laurel.
This morning I heard Yanny, right now I'm hearing Laurel again.

Reminds me of The dress, do you remember that dress? What color do you see?

londoner:
Try Abuja then. Plenty of relaxation spots and you can be outdoorsy there too. I think there is a new go karting place, trampolining and amusement centre for kids somewhere in Lagos though.I think they are quite recently opened.

As for me, it's Abuja over Lagos every time. Green, beautiful, quiet and relaxing.

That's the Upbeat Centre at Lekki phase 1 and it not just for kids. The place is quite fun but expensive.
