Sagamite: Spare me. Ah I only got D in English oh. People should be taught as genuinely as possible in the ways they understand. If English has to be one of the subjects, all well and good. People should be nurtured to succeed at whatever they do but, Depth or Quality of Education shouldn't be hung on English. Kobojunkie: Oh because a HANDFUL of us can communicate in English here, what happens to those that are stuck at Pidgin? they should be seen as 'Uneducated' 'Useless' perhaps because they can't. |

Kobojunkie: My argument has always been that the present system should be done away with (Root of the Problem! ha) My take on English and Grammar only came up when that became the subject of discussion. and I wondered if that could be used as a true measurement of 'Education' There are too many people changing lives and making waves who can hardly speak English Hence! my alarm. |

tensor777: We care too much about what others are doing. How about we actually start something of our own. Sagamite: It is a problem that children have no idea why they are being taught certain things. English should be an option. Kobojunkie: No. tensor777: LOL. |

I'm actually working backwards from Myers-Briggs, That's how I got to IFA |
Politics / Re: Mass Failure In Neco Exams Again by Gamine(f): 5:02pm On Sep 22, 2010 |
must_a_far: This is my main point though. Changing the system (Approach, Techniques e.t.c) whether in English or Not. Sagamite: In this present dispensation, No. Why should they be expected to. You have to consider the root of a problem instead of harping on the fruits. |

Yeah! The one I have has a white body and green cover, It has a lemon scent to it. |
Politics / Re: Mass Failure In Neco Exams Again by Gamine(f): 4:52pm On Sep 22, 2010 |
No one said to do away with English Language which is ever evolving. Focusing on it as a way of measurement is just backward, besides Written English is not the same as Spoken. People can cram and get an A, means ABSOLUTELY nothing (referring to my very post here) Sagamite: Exactly. The focus needs to be changed. |
Religion / Re: Ifa Orisa Religion - Is This Our True Identity: Our True Religion by Gamine(f): 4:43pm On Sep 22, 2010 |
LOL. No, Where is Peckham? I was researching Personality Typing. I think the word used was the 'Uninitiated' 0 Ogbe - light - birth of Orunmila (wisdom) There are 16 identified Types, and some say IFA was the god with 16 eyes. I haven't ventured into 'primary' research yet, All I know is what I've found off the internet and books |
Fashion / Re: Product Reviews: Stop Wasting Money! Beauty Products That Actually Work by Gamine(f): 4:11pm On Sep 22, 2010 |
I think any black soap would do. We currently use Village Fresh. Bentonite clay won't be sold at your local beauty store, I don't think. But hey don't worry about it. |

texazzpete: What happened to Pidgin? Last I checked that was what people from EVERY region understood or you are still forming you never knew pidgin till you got on Nairaland? I take it you are kind of havin a laff, antya? This is a serious issue, why would I be laughing over it |
Religion / Re: Ifa Orisa Religion - Is This Our True Identity: Our True Religion by Gamine(f): 4:00pm On Sep 22, 2010 |
I'm so interested in this now, I would like to get more information. I've come across some in relation to what I was researching but very limited. and some talked about not letting out 'secrets of the shrine' |

Bentonite Clay, Black Soap and Shea Butter have become my staple. My sister has Hyper-pigmentation, used the Black soap, it cleared she now went back to using all these other products It came back and she's been proper pissed. She just started using the black soap again, one of the best things ever! |

You don't have to go to any church, my friend. LOL |

I don't understand why people are screaming about English and Grammar. What does that mean? How does that contribute to anything? |
Nairaland / General / Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by Gamine(f): 2:18pm On Sep 22, 2010 |
I've read worse things but this is also serious, very very sad, too much baggage. These things were wrong back then, they are still wrong and will always be. It's left for us to 'Do the right thing' I think my parents staying apart for long periods did cause some issues, where we had to choose who we preferred. Also, I wish they made more money. |

Why don't you think of the areas you are interested in first then you can pick out from any list. |
Health / Re: Drugs To Boost The Brain by Gamine(f): 1:00pm On Sep 22, 2010 |
Go and look for Vitamin B complex with B12 at your local pharmacy, There's a brand I use, Nature's Bounty. As for foods, Liver, Meat, Egg yolk, Turkey, Milk, Whole-grain cereals, bread, Green leafy vegetables, Sweet corn, Brown rice, Berries, Brewer's yeast, Fish, Legumes, Potatoes, Peanuts. e.t.c |
Romance / Re: Should You Announce Your Engagement On Facebook? by Gamine(f): 12:50am On Sep 22, 2010 |
I don't understand the need to have things like this plastered all over facebook. People don't know what 'intimate' is anymore. I mean look at someone here, posting pictures of his wedding all over nairaland. I wonder what point that is supposed to prove? It really doesn't matter, But your partner may be concerned that other people would be trying to reach you because of your seemingly single status on there. |

Travel / Re: Your First Travel Experience On A Double-decker Bus by Gamine(f): 12:06am On Sep 22, 2010 |
Ejike3: LOL. I wanted to enter one of them, But the way they would bend on Ibadan- Lagos Expressway was scary enough. The normal buses are bad enough, talk more of double decker on our Devil-ridden roads. I think they stopped the use of the buses. |

90% Nigerian parents would have been locked up, if in some other countries. Putting on pressure on us to become what they wanted, not nurturing our own innate abilities. Not being physically affectionate enough. The hugs only came officially but well with so many kids to hug I blame them.lol It's funny how many translate the relationship with their parents to the relationship they have with God (those that believe) Many Nigerians cannot see God as a loving father. God would say 'there is Grace' They would say 'I know, I just have to prove to you I am worthy' Sad. |
Politics / Re: Mass Failure In Neco Exams Again by Gamine(f): 10:56pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
Maybe the students are just tired of cramming all that stuff Maybe they actually want to learn something relevant to todays world We need a new Education system. |

YoAdek333: My sentiments exactly. In another form deepsight: . . . . . His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Vescucci, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fish of the Sea, and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular. . MyJoe: Now, why would anyone say this of Philosopher Vescucci, Ph.D., OON, OBE, Master of the Rolls, Viceroy of India, Doctor of Letters? LMAO. |
Religion / Re: My Friend's Wedding Was Cancelled! by Gamine(f): 10:28pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
mädchen: People Interpret the bible the way they want, and people who are not ready to open their heads will accept whatever 'pastor' 'GO' 'Prophet' 'Papa' tells them. The bible only said a man will leave his family and cleave to his wife, there was no 'White wedding' , no condition/status or whatsoever. Pastors and co are just taking the mickey. |
Health / Re: Drugs To Boost The Brain by Gamine(f): 10:25pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
Take your Vitamin B's Get a good B-complex and B12 supplement Also eat foods that give you a supply of these |
