Your husband is a Nigerian? He doesnt like the food? Goodness . . . . . . So what kinda food he likes than?


My bf hates Japanese food and Western food so if he is around, I would cook for him Nigerian and other Asian dishes like Thailand, Indian food and he doesnt like Italian as well unless if I make a Spicy Arabiata sauce. He is not a creamy person. He use to not like eating vegetables especially a raw salad and also cheese but I started eating it and one day he just shove it down his throat and soon he is eating it for his breakfast. He says he begins to like it. He is trying to like eating Japanese food as I love Japanese food cause I dont like beef and spicy ffod but I made myself eat it because of him and now I love eating beef and spicy food very much.  smiley

beautiful lips, I think asian woman are the bomb (but not the men sorry) you see asian women here in ireland, they get the pick of the crop amoung white men, white men adore asian women and treat them like queens.
yes, I notice that when I was living in the UK and Switzerland and I kinda got scared of them. For a minute, I thought they were stalkers. . . Not untill I came to realize that they actually admire Asians.  embarassed

You told the truth Gabry.
I guess it is happening to many asian girls too especially who grow up in cities and not being taught how to be responsible.
I have been friends with and working with people of different origins.  To my liking, men from middle east and parkistan are (maybe not all) so dominant/sexist and often aggresive.  People from far east are more easily adaptable and friendly, though may be too quiet and men appear not so attractive.  I know some Africans, most of them fairly easy to befriend with.  Whites, well, they appear ethical, friendly but very rarely comes from bottom of their heart.  Was it too much generalisation?!
Yes dear, its generalizing. Maybe not all. I guess it takes different people to make up the world cause come to think of it, I know of a few African girls whom are dirty and messy and some are very neat and tidy so yes, we both are in a way generalizing. Asians men. .  Truth be told, they are alot of handsome ones but the thing is most of them are uhmmm. . . usually gay. . . ok Im eheneralizing again! Nooo!! There is decent handsome Asian men here.  wink smiley cheesy and alot of them can be quiet or noisy depending on individuals.

EducationRe: Why Is Online Learning So Popular ? by Gabry(f): 1:22am On Aug 10, 2009
Because of the following:

1) You could do online learning anytime based on your own time conviniency

2) You could do online learning at any place and location

3) Its cheaper cause the program fees is almost the same but you can safe cost on transportation, travelling and accommodation.

4) You could work all at the same time without any hassle.

5) You do not have to let other students sabotage your gradings (No group projects or group assignments)

6) Most online studies have no exams so its more convinient.
EducationRe: Graduate Who Can't Read/write by Gabry(f): 1:19am On Aug 10, 2009
I think its called Dyslexia? Im not sure. Read this and see whether if it matches what you are seeking for. I got this from Dyslexia-teacher.com


DYSLEXIA SYMPTOMS IN A DYSLEXIC PUPIL OR STUDENT

A short list of possible dyslexia symptoms would include some, but not all,
of these in a dyslexic child:


• a noticeable difference between the pupil's ability and their actual achievement;

• a family history of learning difficulties;

• difficulties with spelling;

• confusion over left and right;

• writing letters or numbers backwards;

• difficulties with math/s;

• difficulties with organizing themselves;

• difficulty following 2- or 3-step instructions.

DYSLEXIA SYMPTOMS IN MORE DETAIL

A discrepancy between the pupil's ability and their actual achievement

If you notice that a child who appears to be average or bright when they are talking to you is struggling to read, spell or cope with math/s, this may be the strongest indicator that they may be dyslexic. It is very common for dyslexic children to be quite able, especially in the areas of creativity (art, drama, drawing, etc) and physical co-ordination (physical education, swimming, sports, model-making, etc.). However, there are differences in the neural links in their brain that makes it hard for them to deal with text (and often with numbers) without extra support. A reading age or grade level of two years below what you would expect from them is a sign of possible dyslexia. Obviously, this could also be caused by other factors such as lengthy absences from school due to illness.

A family history of learning difficulties

Dyslexia is most often inherited through the genes. It can also be caused by early ear infections. In both cases it is harder for a young child to distinguish the difference between similar sounding words. The numbers of boys and girls who are dyslexic are roughly the same.

Difficulties with spelling

Spelling is the activity which causes most difficulty for dyslexic children. Noticing spelling errors in short, simple words is the way in which most dyslexic children first come our attention. Examples of words which cause particular difficulty are: any, many, island, said, they, because, enough, and friend.

Other words will sometimes be spelt in the way that you would expect them to be spelt if our spelling system were rational, for example does/dus, please/pleeze, knock/nock, search/serch, journey/jerney, etc.

Dyslexic children also experience difficulties with 'jumbled spellings'. These are spelling attempts in which all the correct letters are present, but are written in the wrong order. Examples include dose/does, freind/friend, siad/said, bule/blue, becuase/because, and wores/worse. 'Jumbled spellings' show that the child is experiencing difficulty with visual memory. Non-dyslexic children and adults often use their visual memory when trying to remember a difficult spelling: they write down two or three possible versions of the word on a spare piece of paper and see which spelling 'looks right'. They are relying on their visual memory to help them, but the visual memory of a dyslexic child may not be adequate for this task.

Confusion over left and right

A fairly quick way to establish this type of confusion is to ask a child to point to your left foot with his or her right hand. If you try similar instructions - in a non-threatening environment - you will soon be able to see if this causes difficulties or not. (Try it on a colleague - who is not dyslexic - and you can see how a non-dyslexic person is able to sort out the left and right elements quite readily.) You may also notice difficulties with east and west, or in following directions like 'Go to the end of the road and turn left, then right, etc'.

Writing letters or numbers backwards

You will have noticed some children who mix up 'b' and 'd', or even 'p' and the number 9. These letters are the same in their mirror image, and cause regular confusion for a dyslexic person. Some pupils make a point of always writing the letter 'b' as au upper-case or capital 'B', as they find this much easier to remember in terms of the direction it faces.

Difficulties with math/s

One feature of dyslexia is difficulties with sequencing - getting things in the right order. Math/s depends on sequences of numbers - 2. 4. 6. 8. etc. Whilst many people are aware that dyslexic children and students have problems with reading and spelling, they do not know that math/s can also be a real challenge. This is mentioned quite often in Dot's Diary.

Difficulties organizing themselves

Whilst you may quite reasonably think that all children live their lives in a mess, this is particularly so for dyslexic children and students, who may have genuine difficulties with planning and thinking ahead to when a book or pen might be needed next. They can really benefit from help with organizing papers and folders under a simple color-coded system. (See Finding My Own Solutions.)

Difficulty following 2- or 3-step instructions

'Go to Mrs. Brown and ask her if Peter Smith is in school today. Oh, yes, and ask if I can borrow her dictionary' - such an instruction is just too much! It involves both sequencing and memory skills, and you would be very surprised to see a dyslexic child return with the dictionary and information about Peter Smith! Dyslexic children love to take messages as much as any other child, but it has to be a less complicated instruction, e.g. 'Ask Mrs. Brown if I can borrow her stapler'.

LOL! U are hillarious! MY GOD. . . No way they are letting you staying in their temple!!! LOL!  grin The Buddhist here are not like in other countries. They are mostly rich people and theres no such thing as monks here. Even if they are, they are mostly fake. They pretend to be monks so that they could get money easily from the public or from foreignors. . . . . But truth be told, there are no monks here. Seriously, when you think someone can hep u, you cannot find any. . .

No matter how rugged you are, (as alot of Nigerians are), they find themselves hard to even live in this country and in the end they all seek for Mama Ngozi smiley
CultureRe: Do African's Love Asian People? by Gabry(op): 12:08am On Aug 10, 2009
ok you are right in one sense. Alot of Oyinbo ladies especially the ones living in the city are indeed mostly very messy. They can't even clean their own place up and they dont even know how to cook a basic simple dish which is a shame. Most of them dont even bother to thhrow a rubbish in a bin, they just throw it all over the house and in the end they look like a bunch of horders.

Anyways, what do you think about Asian girls?

They aren't allowed to. Women are not permitted to have a mind of their own in their culture.
If a woman has a mind of her own she will be dealt with severly.
The man is allowed to do as he pleases and get away with it even its morally wrong, which is the case most of the time!

EducationRe: case closed by Gabry(f): 3:30pm On Aug 09, 2009
Pdone, ok I have check it out for you.

Regarding Stamford college, the program is good its because it is affiliated with the British Education system so its good.

Goon is a local program and they dont have proper facilities there to teach as well as the program is not recognize.

Other colleges available is KDU, INTI and Taylors but the price is also quite high cause of the affiliated programs with America and Europe.

As for the visa to apply to China from Malaysia, it is very easy. All you need is a Travel Check of 500USD, a letter from your school stating that you are a student from that college, and the visa fee is not more than RM100.00.

It would be advisable for you to at least have a credit card because the embassy here mostly requires you pay everythign via online using credit card. Especially when you are to renew your passport page book. Its kinda of a hastle though. . .
