Amazing episode.



I'm surprised Jon didn't play a big role in the Night King's death. So much for being 'born of fire and ice'. Tueeh!




Melisandre was a delight to watch.

Going forward, I think I will leave the undergraduate students to their race. Imagine a guy that came 2 weeks ago claiming he had a high score. I had called a few schools on his behalf claiming he is my cousin and already discussing with their honors college, asked him to send me a PM he didn't, and I sent him one with no response till date. Guess I am not going to stick my head out anymore.


This is the same way the ingenuity of a few applicants is tarnishing the image of all Nigerians at the embassy.

Please Sir, do not be weary in doing good.

Also;

Realityshot

They were all created between 2018 and 2019. Just for the sole purpose of election propaganda online. Just in case you want to vote Buhari because you see all these guys supporting Buhari, they will all disappear after 2019 Feb and you will be alone to face your hunger.

Atiku is not the best option, but Buhari will destroy this nation if he wins again.

If you don't perform in your 1st tenure, what will you do in your 2nd?



I thought I was the only one that noticed the sudden change. They were nowhere to be found on all the threads detailing Atiku's trip to America or on Amaechi's Scandal but few weeks to elections and they're crawling everywhere like insects.

Mathew 25 : 1 - 13


Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. [2] And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. [3] They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: [4] But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. [5] While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. [6] And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. [7] Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. [8] And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. [9] But the wise answered, saying, Not so ; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. [10] And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. [11] Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. [12] But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. [13] Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.



'Watch' . If you do not watch and guard your 'Salvation', then you might end up in hell.



John 15 : 5 ,6



'I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. [6] If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.'


If you do not *abide* in Christ, you'll be cast off.



Colossians 1 : 21 - 23

And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled [22] In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: [23] If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;


Even Paul admitted that it was possible to move away from the hope of the gospel.
Do not be deceived! Live a righteous and blameless life, yes, it is possible to strive towards Perfection and to live Perfectly.



2Timothy 4 : 10

For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.


Demas Forsoke the gospel of Christ! It is very much possible to be lost .

Really?!! You sit there in comfort and type shit. There's been an alarming rate in the loss of lives and just because it wasn't widely reported doesn't mean it didn't happen. I live in the epicentre of all this so I know what I'm saying. Lives are being lost, it isn't always about politics, if your family was in the midst of this all or if you've lost someone dear to you, I wonder if you'll keep spewing this stuff out!

If you'll listen, focus on your current undergraduate studies, graduate with at least 4.0/5.0 cgpa and come in here for your master's instead. Life here would be much easier for you. There's really no rush in coming to America. Truly speaking.

Thanks

Honestly bro, I would advise you to take your current studies like your life depends on it. Like if you don't study people are gonna kill you in cold blood. Read until your eyes fall out. Seek leadership positions, make the most of your time here and graduate with great grades. I personally feel it's better to go to US on a Master's than as an undergrad.

PS I wish someone had told me this when I was in year 2. Oh well.


"Like if you don't study people are gonna kill you in cold blood..." lolzz

Not a bad attempt to rewrite SAT but please do not lose focus of your undergraduate studies. I am talking based on my experience of some friends who got carried away during our undergraduate days and they lost out when their visas were denied.

If I were you I'd take the SAT again. You still have about 3 years to spend in the University, who knows how difficult it'll be to get a student visa 3 years from now. If you've read visa transcripts from 2012 till now you'd have noticed the how easy it was to get a U. S student visa in 2012 compared to now. I can assure you it'll be far more difficult 3 years from now.
The most important thing is not losing focus on your ongoing studies here. I know someone that was in a similar situation that skipped a semester because he was so sure he was going to travel, he ended up having an extra year.



I would love to retake the SAT but since finance seems to be an issue at the moment. I'll focus on my studies here so as not to lose on both sides.

Thank you Sir �

Thumbs up on the great work going on here. Two years back, I was seeking help concerning undergraduate admission into U.S schools and I was advised by Walspring and Lagosismyhome at the time(i.e @ part 10 of this thread). I was 16 then and I was seeking full-time ride scholarships as my parents aren't financially buoyant. I was told I had to score high on the SAT cos my high school GPA isn't so impressive(3.38) while my waec GPA is 3.33, unfortunately I performed poorly(1150/1600). I went on to apply in an attempt to see what could happen, I got admitted into some colleges (Elmira college, University of New Hampshire,Unity college,University of Southern Mississippi, St John's College- can't remember the rest),with insufficient scholarships. The highest fund I got was from Elmira College, a $108,000 presidential scholarship but the school was too expensive as I still had $27000+ to pay per year and I didn't have a dime. I got other minor scholarships from other schools but they were all less than $20000.
I tried again last year since I learnt that SAT validity was 5 years but I kinda knew it was a futile attempt. I desire to retake the SAT but there are no funds.
I am now 18 and in a Nigerian University(200L currently studying an Engineering course) and I still have desire to go through the process once more.
Will it be better to count my losses and try again when I graduate(i.e MSC) or do I keep hoping a break-through would come somewhere and I'll be able to retake the SAT?
Thanks for your time

You'll never see Sarrki, madridguy or Yarimo here or any of those staunch Buhari's supporters who cannot see beyond their noses and know him for who he truly is.

Rex Tillerson visited Nigeria and Sarrki dropped more than eight comments on the thread like someone who had diarrhoea. You're always out to support Buhari regardless of the ills going on. Just know this, if u keep supporting this evil govt, the blood of each of these people is on your head. You'll surely be recompensed in due time for turning a blind eye to killings of Humans like you just because of the sake of partisan politics. When the killers come knocking on your door or kidnap your sisters, I hope you trust Buhari to bring them back.
