[color=#9900ff]LOL JS

My own is that majority of the embassies are not that helpful, which is a big part of their job. [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Maybe not all 'brilliant' people are hardworking or innovative.  [/color]

[color=#9900ff]I've seen other things. Practically blasé about it.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]SLC - Jos[/color]

[color=#9900ff]Do you mean they write for other students?[/color]

[color=#9900ff]No read, no write - no practice.
Slang/text speak.
Wrong use of words leads to sentence with no sense.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]I hope not. It's getting popular no doubt, but i think people should remember to use it where it's meant to be used.
I use the LOL when 'speaking' with friends and only with my friends because we use it as a joke.

I had this secretary who took down notes in text speak. The notes looked re-tarded. She didn't last long.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]Don't miss foreign food. I just binge on naija food when i'm home.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]Poundo

[color=#9900ff]Money, laziness, incentive etc etc.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]Not something i studied for but i'm not complaining.
Vacations are scheduled, but basically i get to take vacations when i like. I have time to myself. Most importantly i still get to be me. Meaning, my 'i no send' attitude is not masked. No phoniness. I wouldn't mind getting into movies but then it's still not something i studied for technically.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]Just get to know the person[/color]

sunmatajai:
Loving An individual for the sake of the quality(ies) s/he possesses really worth it irregardless of their gender.
The Bible point to the quality(faith/righteous) Abraham possess as a reason for God to refer to him as His friend- James 2:23
Judas was also despisedbecause of his trecherous attitude and latter hanged himself. These are two good and bad qualities of biblical examples of which individual is been noticed for.
If we love someone because of good dispositions it makes a lot of sence for such qualities remain even if the person become maimed or even at death.

[color=#9900ff]His core was inherently cowardly. Nothing really changes that. You can mask it, adjust it but one day it will spew forth. [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Do what i always do. Sit in front of the TV and gobble cakes and ice cream. Drool over Johnny, Batsy, Eric and Dracule [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Sitting for hours till my bum is numb just to do my hair. But for me it's worth it because my purpose is not to have stress over combing or styling it for months.

Heels My most terrible experience had to do with my soles getting swollen.

I have a high resistance to pain. So there are somethings i don't bat an eyelash to doing. [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Relative peace
Hmmm i doubt people are that interested in documentaries, no matter how captivating.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]Watch on mute.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]You mean the Hallmark production?


LOTR. . .every blessed time! [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Yes you can like someone but find his choices in women repulsive.[/color]

ArQueBusieR:
The problem lies in the fact that people may see you in the same vein as his ex's. But if you really fancy him, then, to hell with "people" is all I can say.

[color=#9900ff]Ding![/color]

[color=#9900ff]Welcome back HotA [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Brash [/color]

[color=#9900ff]I loved geography, so it wasn't hard for me to remember alot in the class.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]I feel you jare and i agree with Bawss1.
I feel its something an individual should decide for himself. Sure parents can guide and provide information, but there's a feeling of 'my way or your dead' hovering.[/color]

[color=#9900ff]My SIL calls her husband 'Baby', same thing he calls her. We used to tease them in the naija community that when they around, we no dey hear anything only 'baby, baby'. [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Qualities make up a person. He/she is a shell without them.
I do not mean physical qualities but character qualities.

I don't really believe in the 'change' of people. Their 'core' almost always remains the same. Sure, they can change a thing or two, but who he/she essentially is remains the same. I'm talking about people who have come into their own, who know themselves. [/color]

[color=#9900ff]What else if not trying to change the game [/color]

[color=#9900ff]In Nigeria, 'propose' does not mean 'getting married'. We like to mangle words among other things.

And i've asked repeatedly, if you were dropped on your head? [/color]

[quote author=obo_man link=topic=786945.msg9391668#msg9391668 date=1319226616]I have been in UK for quite a few years and any time I see interracial kids of black ancestry, it's their dads that are usually black. When you look at Black football players and celebrities, their wives and girlfriends are usually white.
I have seen white men dating black women, but it's a rare occurrence. I have hardly seen a successful white man ( be it in Hollywood, sport or politics) that is engaged to a black woman. What could be the reasons?
I personally feel one reason could be because it is only a black man that can effectively handle a black woman or maybe white men find black women unattractive compared to their white women.

I'm just puzzled and I want comments and contribution. I have no qualms seeing black women date other races, in fact I'm happy seeing it. I only get jealous when she is super hot ( imagine the sight of Beyonce dating a white man), That is when I get jealous and angry, but still, it's cool by me.[/quote][color=#9900ff]Robert De Niro is married to a black woman.
Just as David Bowie is married to Iman.

I think there are many factors.
There is choice, there is perception and misconceptions, there is experience etc etc.

I'm like Rokiatu, not particularly picky with race, it's already difficult finding someone who even is in the same mental/emotional plane as i am, i go add color coding to am? I already have problems with the species [/color]

[color=#9900ff]^^

Don't understand why you'd give your number to someone you don't want to give it to? [/color]

[color=#9900ff]Hmmm one shoe here, another to go [/color]
