OP when did you apply?

#1. You paid the bills this month, and maybe even had
extra to spend on non-necessities. It doesn’t matter how
much you belabored the checks as they went out, the point
is that they did, and you figured it out regardless.

#2. You question yourself. You doubt your life. You feel miserable some days. This means you’re still open to
growth. This means you can be objective and self-aware.
The best people go home at the end of the day and think:
“or… maybe there’s another way.”

#3. You have a job. It doesn't matter how many hours you work, or at what rate you are earning money. At least you eat something, sleep on something, wear something every day. It’s not failure if it doesn’t look the way you thought it would – you’re valuing your independence and taking responsibility for yourself.

#4. You have time to do something you enjoy. Even if
“what you enjoy” is sitting on the couch and ordering
dinner and watching 'soaps'.

#5. You are not worried about where your next meal is
coming from. There’s food in the fridge or kitchen, and you have enough to actually pick and choose what you want to eat.

#6. You can eat because you enjoy it. It’s not a matter of eating just for sheer survival.

#7. You have one or two truly close friends. People
worry about the quantity but eventually tend to realize the
number of people you can claim to be in your tribe has no
bearing on how much you feel intimacy, acceptance,
community, or joy. At the end of the day, all we really want
are a few close people who know us (and love us) no
matter what.

#8. You could afford a bus ride, airtime recharge, or the gas in your car this morning. The smallest conveniences (and oftentimes, necessities) are not variables for you.

#9. You’re not the same person you were a year ago.
You’re learning, and evolving, and can identify the ways in
which you’ve changed for better and worse.

#10. You have the time and means to do things beyond
the bare minimum. You’ve maybe been to a concert in
the last few years, you buy books for yourself, you could
take a day trip to a neighboring city if you wanted – you
don’t have to work all hours of the day to survive.

#11. You have a selection of clothing at your disposal.
You are not worried about having light clothes during the cold. You have cool clothes for work and something to wear to a wedding. You not only can shield and decorate your body, but can do so appropriately for a variety of circumstances.

#12. You can sense what isn’t right in your life. The first and most crucial step is simply being aware. Being able to communicate to yourself: “something is not right, even
though I am not yet sure what would feel better.”

#13. If you could talk to your younger self, you would
be able so say: “We did it, we made it out, we survived
that terrible thing.” So often people carry their past
traumas into their present lives, and if you want any proof
that we carry who we were in who we are, all you need to
do is see how you respond to your inner child hearing, 'you’re going to be okay', from the person they became.

#14. You have a space of your own. It doesn’t even have to be a home or apartment (but that’s great if it is). All you need is a room, a corner, a desk, where you can create or rest at your discretion; where you govern who gets to be
part of your weird little world, and to what capacity. It’s one of the few controls we can actually exert.

#15. You’ve lost relationships. More important than the fact that you’ve simply had them in the first place is that
you or your former partner chose not to settle. You opened yourself to the possibility of something else being out there.

#16. You’re interested in something. Whether it’s how to live a happier life, maintain better relationships, reading or movies or sex or society or the axis on which the world spins, something intrigues you to explore it.

#17. You know how to take care of yourself. You know
how many hours of sleep you need to feel okay the next day, who to turn to when you’re heartbroken, what you have fun doing, what to do when you don’t feel well, etc.

#18. You’re working toward a goal. Even if you’re
exhausted and it feels miles away, you have a dream for
yourself, however vague and malleable.

#19. You’re not uncompromisingly set on anything for your future. Some of the happiest and best adjusted
people are the ones who can make any situation an ideal,
who are too immersed in the moment to intricately plan and decidedly commit to any one specific outcome.

#20. You’ve been through some 'crap'. You can look at
challenges you currently face and compare them to ones
you thought you’d never get over. You can reassure yourself through your own experience. Life did not get easier, you got smarter.

They are scam artists... I was almost scammed by Virtual Human Resources...

After 20 slaps and her face swollen
Me: Baby this one is ok na...
She: Baby please continue... Or are you tired

I wonder why you are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. Basketmouth cracked his joke (which I think was funny) and got paid. He wasn't even referring to GEJ but GMB. And if you noticed throughout the program, whenever any jibes were thrown against GMB, GEJ didn't laugh about any of them. I actually respect him for that. For events that happened yesterday (the Presidential debate and others), I would say ceteris paribus, the President would be reelected. #MyOpinion

Wow, ingenious...

Na wa o... Which one would we believe now?

Chisos!!!

WTF!!! It now looks like one bad road in Ogun state...

9jatatafo:
Thanks for your comment. It is absolute madness to pay such amount for a child who doesn't know anything about life yet. By the way how much is tuition fee in UNIBEN?

Depends on the department, but it's not up to 20K per session...

Ndeewonu:
Thanks to President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan!

To the guy below me, look at the way #GMB held the card. It's like the guy is not sure of giving #GEJ the red card again o... #JustMYThoughts
