I have all my important documents in a folder. It includes my birth certificate, WAEC, Bachelors, Masters, etc. I have the folder with me when I am outside Nigeria. I call my folks if I need some other documents I don't have such as PCC.

Thank you. Have u ever Needed the Birth certificate for anything? If yes, what pls? And could a Decleration of Age have sorted it out or was it strictly Birth Certificate? Thanks again.

Finally sent the money to Musa, hoping and praying that my nigga wont suddenly decide to scam me and tell stories that touch.

He is a relaible friend, he got it done, thank God!!

Okay Musa go and scan the document and send to my email quickly pls. The grace period I was given is almost over. Abeg. Cant afford any delays.

Musas email finally arrived. Thank God.

Aaaaargghhh! Musa!! Who scanned this thing for u naa its not clear at all na!!! Shebi u have eyes!!

Musa Is silent on the phone like one aboki I used to know...

Aboki!!!!!!!

Musa would have to go to town to re-scan and resend TOMORROW.

Finally getting to the centre now, they Say the grace period is over. Begging them like lives depend on it.

Sad that I cud have done this stuff in naija - EASILY

Please what documents can put someone in such predicament.

There are certain documents that are so easy to obtain while still within the border (like Birth certificate, court affidavit, police report, medicals etc- just examples), but become painstakenly difficult to obtain once you leave the shore. Some of these documents might even be overlooked as they arent that useful in Nigeria so no one bothers to obtain them, only to travel then suddenly you NEED them. So, for those who are frequent travellers, students or residents abroad, please share your experiences concering which documents You later Needed, and for what. Were u Lucky to already possess them or did u have to go through some crazy stressful process trying to procure them from home (Nigeria) etc? Just share ur experiences to save others the trouble.

Examples of situations where one MIGHT suddenly need some wierd old document:

Trying to join an exclusive organisation/association/community etc.
Applying for Certain types of jobs.
Applying for citizenship/residence permit/etc.
Things that require criminal record verification bla bla.
Signing up for ANYTHING within/with switzerland
Voting during Nigerian Elections
Completing school registration or signing up for a special course while schooling
Medical emergency

...... cant think of any other scenario now but Im sure you already get the idea. Please share ur experiences to save others any unnecessary hassle.

Thank you.

Hello all,

Something just happened now that inspired me and I thot to share it cos it might inspire you too.

I wanted to lie at the balcony to get some natural air so I grabbed my inflatable bed and pump. Haven't used these in a while so the bed was completely deflated. I laid it out and began pumping. Pumped for a while (about 35 pumps) but didn't notice ANY physical change in the leather. This weighed me down as I didn't have the patience for such nonsense plus my arm was already getting worked, and I was thinking "all that energy wasted and this thing is still flat? really??" and was about to pack the whole thing in when my brain suddenly viewed the situation from the BUSINESS perspective. Then I calmed down and began counting instead as I pumped. ***What I know now is that it takes roughly 250 pumps to fully inflate that bed, but you may not notice any ENCOURAGING IMPROVEMENT until you count to around 120.

I don't know what you may be working on now that seems like your effort is not effective- starting a blog, shedding some weight, building your clientèle, saving up for a project, promoting a product etc- just shift your focus from your EFFORT to the TIME. Know that if you continue to apply that effort for just a while longer, it would yield one way or another! IT. WOULD. YIELD!!

I wrote this while enjoying the pure natural breeze that I wanted.

A more drastic appreciation- parallel to the drastic depreciation we experienced- would be greatly appreciated!

Scarcity is real , I almost lost my resident permit say I dey wait to renew my passport , waited for 5 weeks no passport , I knew I had to go there and disturb em ... It took the intervention of the PCO office to get my passport , had to pay extra money and got it the nxt day , left naija same day I got my passport ......

Can u imagine!... Awon alakoba buruku! Im glad u slipped right thru their sticky fingers tho. Mehn, civil war is revving on the horizon o. Nigeria is getting too hot that it might just implode.

Playing with a women's heart is a child's game. It separates the boy's from MEN!

Dont fuss dear. Nobody is playing with anyones heart- both parties are playing the game. Thats all! My advice to you, and any other lady who my be feeling frustrated by the status quo and wishing they werent born as women in this degrading generation, is to simply distinguish urself by REFUSING TO PLAY THAT STUPIID GAME.

Live your life, pursue your dreams, respect ur body, when u meet a man be very plain and honest with what u want or DONT want, and I assure u that once your man sees you he'll recognize you. He wont bother playing games with u (even if hes a "player" cos u arent the typical fakeass pretentious biitch we like to TOY with. We've been playing with toys since we were kids so its very easy for us to spot a toy and start playing with it. Trust me dear, many of us guys know exactly what we want in a partner; a REAL woman that we can take seriously because her head is in the right place. But all these girls just try to SELL us their curves. First they size us up to see if we can AFFORD them, then they snubb those who cant, and start playing the game with those of us who can; they want us to worship them and spend on them and cater to their bleeping needs JUST because THEYRE SEXY OR ATTRACTIVE? How is that different from prostitution?? Heck we're not stupiid na, we play along and bang the hell outta them - bang our investment out of them while pitying the poor dude that will later MARRY them ....... But if she had appealed to me as a real woman, God knows I'd treat her with FULL respect whether as a friend, as a lover, or as a life partner! Full Respect!!


So again, dear lady, I feel ur frustration, but I console you with this potent piece of advice; distinguish yourself by refusing to play that game. We guys are in desperate need of ladies like you- not these glorified prostitutes we keep meeting.

I SWEAR, IN THIS OUR GENERATION, SEX IS SOOOOOOOO CHEAP. NO GIRL IS TOO HARD OR IMPOSSIBLE TO GET! IT ALL DEPENDS ON TIME, SITUATION AND PLACE...


This days, when just see guys (especially the good ones) getting married to all these LEFTOVER GIRLS, I just shake my head in pity.


It's a wasted generation

Sex is sooooooooooo cheap.

YOU. SPEAK. MY. MIND. Used leftovers getting married everywhere. We know them...and only wonder if these guys are ignorant, or simply dont care. Either way its just somehow.... Weird.

I got admitted into USN to study Maritime Management.. In the admission letter, they stated I have till 10th May to transfer the 103999 NOK... My issue now is.. I really don't have the cash and don't know how to raise it. Don't have security for a bank loan either.. It's really a dilemma. I'm believing God.
Anyone got any ideas for me to raise the cash?

So sorry to hear this. Wished cud help but we're talking around 3.7m. Thats quite a sum to try to just rustle extemporaneously. I Wish u well tho. Give it ur best, and if that's not good enough, don't dispair; if a door shuts, a window swings open! Keep ur head high bro.
