Seun: My iPhone 5C finally died so I'm thinking of getting another iPhone, however I don't plan to buy the iPhone 6 (or 6 plus) because:

1) The iPhone 6 is too slippery. You can't grip it firmly due to the lack of firm edges. In my clumsy hands, it would only last for a few weeks!

2) The back of the iPhone 6 is super-ugly, making it the ugliest iPhone they've ever made. The first phone that looks better in any case!

3) The camera is better but it doesn't resolve the only problem I had with my iPhone 5C camera: perspective distortion. When I take pictures, things close to the camera often appear larger than they truly are, while things close to the corners are distorted. This is because phones have fixed wide angle lenses which allow us to take pictures while standing close to objects we're photographing, but distort them when we do so.

4) They lack front facing stereo speakers which means when I play movies or music on them, the sound will be completely flat.

5) The new iPhones are large. Using them one-handed is difficult/impossible and Apple's "reachability" solution is awkward and inefficient.

HTC One M8 would solve problems 2 and 4, but it's also slippery and the low MP camera makes it harder to avoid distortion by cropping. It's also rather big. iPhone 5S would solve problems 1 and 2, and 5, but would be even less ideal for watching movies due to the small screen. The original HTC One and HTC One Max would solve problems 1, 2, and 4, but the HTC One lacks stamina while the One Max may be too big.

As regards my application process, I registered as the normal UTME stuff; afterall I've completed my programme at The Polytechnic. Besides, many polytechnic students do reapply for UTME before they complete their programmes.

While I was doing my programme at The Polytechnic, two of my course mates got admission into university and they dropped their polytechnic programme.

I've seen HND guys that are also UTME applicants. I'm not saying that the programme is bad, everything depends on the future that one envisages.... If one wants to go into academic line, then one has to think twice (getting MSC with HND will take at least 5years of post HND graduation--Just to qualify as an applicant).

One of my friends on UNILORIN thread got admission into UI last year but chose to reapply for his prefered course at UNILORIN and has got admitted (he has even printed his ORIGINAL admission letter from JAMB). In other words, it's very much possible.

I even applied for DE as well.

Should you have more questions to ask, don't hesitate to ask sir. You're mostly welcome!

claireshan: u must be kidding me which marieolae?u just don't know what you are saying

ammyluv2002: Slowly depression sets in....you have to fight back, don't let the devil to win! Try as much as possible to be in the presence of God, He can help you find your life meaningful. Try and hang out with 'good' friends, those that have your interest at heart and genuinely wish you well.
I guess, at your age is not strange to experience such but if you are not very careful this phase can destory your life and thatz why you really need to fight back and don't give up.
