BlueDomera:
The op has used his own hands to destroy and derail his thread.

Almost 7 pages and yet very very few details of the trip.

Thread is no longer interesting and captivating.

This is not a question and answer thread for Christ sake.

Even justwise did his best to sanitize the thread but the op keep acting like he is the ambassador of Ireland.

You are not meant to answer any questions, you are suppose to tell us about your trip with beautiful pictures.

Those who wants to ask questions should go to the Ireland travel website or thread.

Reading from page one to three gets Boring,
now how would you expect people to read till page seven with no details of you in Ireland.

I will advice you create another thread and ignore all questions.

Justwise might help you get it on the front page.
Thanks for the heads up.

Fella before already said 20 hours term time & full time during holidays.

Do you have problem with reading??

No you can’t work more than 20 hours.
It’s people like you that will go & spoil things for others. When they cancel work now for students, we will say they’re wicked blah blah.
Easy now, I get the angle he was coming from.
Some work more like this period theres no physical class, as long you can get the extra in cash.

how much do they pay per hour and can one work over the 20 hours
Minimum wage is €10 per hour. I get more than 12.
Working over 20hrs is possible, but it will affect your citizenship process.

Pls bro I have two questions
1.how many hours can one work in a week how much do they pay per hour
2.Must I pay d school fees fully or can I pay some, then pay d rest from the proceeds I get from working odd jobs there
During school semester, 20hrs, during holiday, 40hrs.

Embassy said at least €6000 to process visa.
The rule of thumb is to pay 70% of your school fees. I know someone that is hustling the rest if her fees here, I must say that it wasn't a easy ride, the hours you work is enough to help you live comfortably and save a little.

After the first meal, they brought in drinks.
You had the option of taking different varieties of drinks
From Cocktails to spirit to wine. Would have loved Wine, but wasn't sure if it's the alcoholic one they had or the non alcoholic one. The only downside when you sit at the window is that you wont be able to ask without other hearing your conversation unlike when you're sitting at the aisle.
At more than 20000 feet above sea level, the effect of alcohol will have a strong backlash, so I jejely scanned the Cold beverages section and went for Orange juice, apple cinder, and ginger ale. Those were what I ordered when they were serving drinks. Whenever they showed up, I always pick something and I even ask for extra if I'm feeling it.
It brings to mind a story I heard. One elderly was traveling for the first time on a flight. From the way the story sounded, the Generalization was that he was Ijebu man,
The flight crew started to Bombard the cabin with all sort of food and drinks with exotic garnishes. This man having been to Lagos and know as e dey go refused All. They brought food, he said hes not hungry, they brought water, he said he wasn't thirst. At the end of the journey, he was very weak and it showed all over him. When he managed to get to his destination. The host saw the way he rushed water and the food and asked him if food was not served on the flight. He said they did but he thought they will pay extra for it. They laughed and told him it was included in the Flight fees.
I wasn't going to carry last in that matter. As they were bring I was collecting o.
After collecting a delicious orange juice, I found one of the documentary about Houses and design I always look forward to back in Lagos, Its a show on DSTV by George Clarks. If you love decor and seeing the next level in innovative houses, you'll love it.

@Chiggsglover I'm currently doing a MS Mathematics course here in the US and planning to enter the Data Analytics field, what's your assessment of the job prospect after finishing the program there?

How easy is getting a job? Does getting the job guarantees PR?
Here's a man that beat the odds.
Ha, you're already in the US, stay there na.
How it works in Ireland is that you study, finish it, get a job that can pay you at least €30000 and you're on your way to PR.
This is why the Irish thread stress the importance of studying a great course that will assure you a great job.
If you do not get a job after 2yrs of completing your studies, you can either study another masters or apply to another country.

As you can see I intentionally commot naija.

You have an European Masters, lots of countries are more open to you at this point.
Visa is easier to get.
I would have gone to the US for summer this year, but Trump ban on All Nigerians affected me.
It won't stay that way for a long time.

While I settled to watch Hobbs and Shaw, the air Hostess started moving around with trucks of food, that truck has seen years and decades of improvements, I had to pause the film and observe how it serves our need. Everything on the menu, the truck had. I was WOWED, I listened to the demands of everyone around me and decided to pick the strange one out, and they had it.
I now understand why being Air hostess isn't an easy job and why the training have to be thorough to only pick the best of men. You just have to be an excellent multitasker as a servant, waitress, Safety officer, porter, usher, and others.
I picked the first order and devoured it while watching the movie.
I have the Before and after picture as evidence.
Standing at Murtala Airport was stress and was a huge far cry from my experience at Qatar. This is a country that almost made me drool. Pictures do not do justice to this enough.

In fact, in most long-haul flights, planes fly with 3-5 pilots and second officers. They do switch and shift before they arrive their destinations.

Aviation is beautiful. smiley

After I shook my head and drank some water to regain my composure and swag. I decided to operate the interface before. I really love technology and the convenience it brings to life. It brings to remembrance a philosophy I had as a young man after watching sci-fi movies.
Technology is magic.
Everything we can do with magic can be achieved with Technology!
The one that you'll put your leg on the wall and you be in another part of the world or you'll be here and you can see what is happening in your neighbors house are achievable with the aid of Technology, plus the one that you'll jump on a broomstick and it Carries you around. With time they can be achieved.
Sci-movies are very powerful.
It might be that you wont be alive to see it happen. Just that your ancient grandpa's werent alive and the people that mocked the Wright brothers died before seeing it happen.
So before I came i got the Visa, i prepared my mind on some films I will keep till I travel so I will have films to watch on the plane. Funny me.
I didnt like the video resolution of Maleficent, so I moved to Hobbs and Shaw. Great film,
Maleficent would have been ideal for such a journey.
The environment and the ambient lighting made me feel Magnificent. But I didnt want to soil the memory of the film after lots of work, resources and creativity have been invested to make the film land a lasting impression.
It saddens me to say that my phone didnt do justice to capturing the beauty of the interior.
It was because the lights are usually dimmed and brightened to match the outside the plane during the the critical points of air travel which is take off and landing.
To when you get out of the plane in an emergency situation, your eyes is already used to the environment. You know It takes time for our eyes to adjust to changes in light condition.
You know every moment counts in such emergency.

I can see why people scream and scatter the head of the person in front with vomit when an airplane is about to take off. Those movies dey bust my head.
The pilot really had fun with me o.
The plane was just dancing around the airport for about 15 minutes, they call it taxing, you see, the way taxi drives about aimlessly, I just assumed that they might be waiting for the way to clear and we might just doing merrygoround, when all of a sudden, I had a loud sound that pushed me back to my seat, I looked out of the window and saw that we gathered speed incredibly fast, almost instantly. In less than 1min, I felt a sensation that feels like my spirit leaving my body.
You know in Tom and Jerry when little Jerry will do something that is beyond the imagination of Tom, Tom jumps out of his body.
That's how I felt, it was something I have never imagined. I guess it was because I sat at the tail of the plan.
Physics I failed woefully in school became as clear as crystal. You know when you swing a belt, the other end you're not holding goes through more motion than the source of the energy. In laymen words, you're more stable in the middle of the plane where we have the wings and the engine.That explains why pilots faint sometimes, it's why a plane can never fly without two pilot even though it has auto pilot, and other tech convenience.
So the torture continued until it got to about 10000 feet I guess and balanced gradually. I was so relieved, it was achieved Jesus was on that spot and he said Peace, Be still.
