Music/RadioRe: West African Idols: Season 1 (2007) by iyken(m): 9:09am On May 28, 2007
tng:
Timi is good but Omawunmi is the total package.Timi just chose songs that fitted his vocal range. And i agree with Nana that he has a diction problem. When they were supposed to make one UNICEF appeal about AIDS, he part of the thing wasnt flowing at all.
Anyway, he has won but i know Omawunmi would be a star. Timi is going to be another Reuben Studdard.
Bolton goes for songs within his vocals, Alisha,J.Leg,even Mercy Gray. Its about striking the right notes which equivocally TIMI has done.
You do not need to sing through the 7 ambients of notes to win Idols.
Moreover an artist need'nt speak like the queen of england before becoming a star.
Timi was a better choice.
FamilyRe: Can Marriage Survive Without Children by iyken(m): 4:21pm On May 25, 2007
BillGatesFan:
What am I doing in a marriage without a fruit? My bible tells me that any tree that does not bear fruit shall be cut down, better be a celibate MONK than be in a marriage without a child.

In that way I can use my Precious SPERM in the service of GOD and for my spiritual evolution instead of allowing one yeye woman to conterminate me and yet can't give me a child to show for it.
Oops! that hurts embarassed

There are lot of indices to consider b4 taking a decision on go or no go.

Generally, going by the trend in the job market,one stands a higher chance of getting that dream job with the Foreign Certificate.
However, there must be a balance.

Good luck.

FamilyRe: Would You Let Your Ageing Parents Live With You? by iyken(m): 1:23pm On May 24, 2007
Ultrame:
A man lives comfortably with his family (wife and three kids of ages 12, 9 and 5) in a big city.

He travels home to the village one weekend to visit his aging parents (dad: 72, mum: 68)

(they've not yet turned into vegetables!)

The truth is: he knows his parents needs extra care from what they are currently getting. should he take them into his house and see if it would work?
Where have you been 5-12 yrs ago going by the age of your kids.Its apparent you were [b]incommunicado.[/b]What level of squalor were you refering to,since they are not yet vegetables(still relatively fit) - feeding,housing or mobility?
Based on the above, I will not subscribe to allowing them live with me as this will be tantamount to charging up the atmosphere at home with time(proven).
Rather,Identify the things you refered to as squalor and rectify.
Visit them more often,
Engage the services of a visiting-nurse for as deemed-fit.
Since you are the only son, it means you have sisters probably married(?),so call a familly meeting and impress on all your observations and way forward.

It is an honour to Age THEY SAY.
NYSCRe: NYSC Is A Waste Of Time? by iyken(m): 4:34pm On May 23, 2007
The programme itself is a laudable one with both Long term and short term benefits.
It is the execution and Modus operandi that fallshort of expection,hence these avalanche of compliants trailing her.
The moment square pegs are put in square holes,NYSC will aid to a greater degree, National integration,ethnic tolerance and inter-tribal sync among others.

FamilyRe: Can You Allow You Relations Live With You? by iyken(m): 10:31am On May 23, 2007
Ideally, for newly weds, its not the wisest of decisions to allow a relative stay with you, 'cos thats the period often refered to as "the nature nurture controversy" in marriages. Couples require absolute privacy for intimate sync.
However, in view of our peculiar social terrain,this is often compromised.
For couples who can, this is highly encouraged @ least for the first six months.
FamilyRe: Life At 30 When You're Not Married by iyken(m): 10:06am On May 23, 2007
soulpatrol:
wow, this just made my day. thanks to the wisdom of all you fellow Nairaland users, i'll try to enjoy life more. not 30 yet, but getting there cool i tell you, the pressure from family and friends can drive you insane! it can ultimately drive one to make a wrong decision just to please the family. at one point, makes you question if something is wrong in your life even though its perfect and you're happy. we forget that not ever woman will marry at 24, 25, 26 or whatever. everyone has their time, and things don't always go the way you envision or plan. so i'm just going to life everyday to the fullest. smiley
Thats the spirit gal. One day at a time. cool

CareerRe: Should I Leave My Good Job In The Uk For A Job In 9ja. by iyken(m): 1:47pm On May 19, 2007
zhia2000:
If you had a good professional job in the UK, that pays at least £27,000 p.a (£2300 per mnth) at entry level, and all other things are fine. Will you give that up for a job in Nigeria? Please state reasons for your choice.
Its obvious from the tone of your wordings,you are not ready to giveup your "good professional job" yet.
Perhaps that explains you did not give details of the Job in Nigeria. Is it Professional too? How much? What prospects are there.
Do not forget,home is home. So lets compare apple for apple and take a decision.
Good luck.

please start a family ok.
By getting married,the young man has already started a familly.Making babies is another.This should not be mixed up.

@duduluq,
you do not sound confident enough.I think its time you quit being tied to your parents apron not rebellion

Familly life is a new phase where as you make your bed so you (not your parents) lie on it. Its your decision.

My advice? Let her get a job first NOW THAT THE CHANCES ARE HIGH. It a different ball game when the kids start coming.

While single parenthood should not be glorified such that people think it's ok to have kids unmarried,at the same time a man who has fathered a baby ought to raise it.
That is why I love America and the garnishing of wages for delinquent fathers.
@babyosiss

"garnishing of wages for delinquent fathers"  grin Hahahaaaa,love the sound of it.
