Wale: I'm drinking champagne till I'm jumping from the window ?

I think he was referring to Ron Browz' "Jumping out the window" and the other song, "pop champagne" with Juelz Santana and co.  

But the K'naan guy killed him.  Who woulda thought!!

[quote author=na2day? link=topic=405288.msg5637192#msg5637192 date=1267853997]trust me u dont wanna know[/quote]yea right.

^^ Buhahahahaha.

No, serious question though. Which of the two teams plays better?

I skipped primary 6 too, didn't feel like I missed anything.

SEFAGO:
Woah I take my words back after reading the article one of them got an A in mathematics if this really effing true

I have to verify the source but if it is true man we should make sure we sing these news. While people talk about fake academics like emeagwali and oyibo at least we should focus on really brilliant people like these children.

You and your mouth!! Accept it, the kids are smart.

Emeagwali, isn't he the guy that discovered something that has to do with the computer?

FL Gators:
What is so special about that line?

LMAO @ high half the time. so true sha

Nothing special but when you think about it for a while, it's really dope. . .if you get the 'metaphor' or whatchamacallit.

Basically, he's saying that being on top or in the lead is his threshold/home or whatever, he needs a pillow and a cover since he be'z there all the time. LMAO 

Bobcats or Nets, what team is better?

Well, he's high half the time, what do you want from him?

Naw, he has sick flows sometimes. His lines on Drake's 'forever' was very easy but I particularly liked the line, "I'm resting in the lead, I need a pillow and a cover". That was hot, was just thinking about it.

Guccimane is on another level, please. Insult to Weezy.

shotster50:
Who in the hell listens to LL Cool J!! Its 2010 not 1989 dude. You might as well put in Melle Mel and Kool G Rap while you are at it lol.

LMAO!!! Exactly.

SEFAGO:
^ I was 9 when I got into secondary school hehe- and I have actually heard of an 8 year old.

The main point is that they both passed A-levels math when they were 9 years old, chiogo thats equivalent to AP Calculus (or way harder) - passed meaning probably a D or an E, not like an A or B. Considering the fact that the A-levels is notoriously and superbly grade inflated it prolly possible for the really advanced Nigerian kids to do.

9, huh? Did you skip a grade? But then you have a late birthday, I'm sure you turned 10 the same year. I knew a girl like that, she wasn't smart. That's why you really can't say someone is smart because they entered high school at a young age, in Naija anyway.

But I'm sure these twins are smart. It wouldn't be this publicized if they passed with D's.

This is nice stuff. I do almost all the above:

*Shampooing and conditioning(Garnier Fructis) - only once a week though (It's laziness, my hair tends to be harder to put in a pony tail after washing, don't have time to waste when getting ready for lectures) 
*Hot-oil treatment once a month or whenever I feel like it.
*I rarely trim
*leave-in conditioning(Garnier fructis)
*ORS carrot oil(hate the smell tho so I rarely use it)
*Hair shine spray(Garnier fructis)

My hair is just there - not long, not too short. But it's grown a lot since I cut it 2 yrs ago. Maybe I'll change my shampoo/conditioner from Garnier fructis to herbal essences.

LMFAO!!! @ it's magical how the windshield never cracks, huh?
Fighting for land! So true!!

^^ Yup exactly.

Unless he's talking about the olden days.

Which means you were 11 in JSS 1 instead of the typical 13; a two-year difference. So, you likely started primary school at 4 years of age instead of the recommended 6 years of age.

This two-year shift is common with those whose parents wanted them to start earlier in school. Most of these parents start their kids in Primary One at age 4 instead of age 6, and usually start them in private primary schools.

Those who were a year younger fall into the three-year shift category. They either started Primary One at age 3 without skipping any class, or started at a later age (between 4 and 6)  and skipped at most three classes within 6 years.

No, I was 10 in JSS 1. Turned 11 just before JSS 2.   It depends on what month one's birthday falls in. I actually started primary school at 6 years old or just before that but I skipped primary 6. However I had classmates who did primary 6 but same age as me.

I didn't think Nigeria had a specific age for kids to start primary school, something about a kid is eligible to attend school once s(he) can touch his/her left ear when putting the right hand over the head.   People graduating high school at 15 and 16 are so common in Naija, it seemed regular to me. I saw people who graduated at 18 as those who started school "late" but in America, most high schoolers graduate at 18.

RichyBlacK:
What are you saying?

In Nigeria, children normally start Primary 1 around 6 years old. At 9 years, the typical Nigerian child is in Primary 3 or 4, which is Grade 3 or 4 in the US.

Where did you get that Nigerian kids typically get into 7th grade (JSS 1) at 9 years old?

For that to happen, the child would start Primary 1 at 2 years old or skip four classes within 6 years.

Well, I turned 10 just before going to JSS 1 and my classmates were also around my age, mostly my age or a year younger. Very few were older.
I assumed that's the normal age for junior high transition in Nigeria.

^^ Ok, that's very common in naija. I guess it's uncommon to them as it is in the U.S. too.

Year 7? What's that in Naija terms? JSS 3?

^Ahahahaha, joker.

netotse:
i know several 27yr olds that cant recognise the smell of weed

Well, it's common on my campus, can't miss it. LOL

FL Gators:
Both of you two? I thought I was a good mother.
I still remember when chiogo used to think santa was real and when Ibkaye used to waste her diapers.
Just like yest, now they're. . . .  sigh

LOL, was never into santa. sorry.
I was born in naija, remember?  

I dunno how the British system works but by high school, I'm hoping they mean 9th grade as with the U.S.

In Naija though, Junior high is also referred to as high school, which is when one enters JSS 1, which is 7th grade in the U.S - Junior high.

But if these twins are going to the 9th grade at 9 years old, then it's a big deal, that's exceptional! If they're going to 7th grade, then it's the same as with most Nigerian kids.

I smell weed. I smell weed. I smell weed.

Pheww, nap time.

Summary please?
That's some essay!
