HealthRe: Bathing With Sponges & Without Sponges. by peren: 12:32pm On Nov 24, 2014
I personally do not think it is necessary to use a sponge everytime I bath. So I make it a point of duty to scrub once in a day or every other day. At night mostly. So after scrubbing at night with a sponge i do not see the need to be scrubbing again in the morning.

Really nice story, and that's the definition of a correct babe, she did what she wanted to, not worrying about what others would think, or say, or if someone saw her, that's confidence.

TravelRe: Have You Ever Missed A Flight? by peren: 11:04am On Nov 05, 2014
My own experience was annoying cus it cost me a lot more than i had anticipated. We were on vacation in Tanzania and we decided to fly from Moshi to Dar es salam and then go by boat to Zanzibar, instead of going by road.

Our mountain lodge had adviced that the trip to the airport was abt 1hr, so we generally took our time, it was my friends birthday so we were busy cutting cake and snapping pics by the time we hit the road it took about 30mins just to get to the main road from the mountain lodge sef.

1hr pass we still dey turbo, the flight was for 12:30 we got to the airport at 12:15, they insited that the counter was closed and that we would have to buy new tickets or pay this really high no show fee. After all the talking and begging it all came to no avail. we just vexed bought tickets with another airline for zanzibar direct, had to drive to arusha a near by town to catch up with that flight, no be small thing oh. Our lounging cost us $320. but it made sense in the end flying straight to zanzibar, sha.

Collect the phone, some people are just heartless. But i doubt if she would give it to you sha. I got a phone for an ex he was supposed to pay back for the phone when he got a job bla bla, not adding all the borrowed money too, as we broke up, it has all entered voice mail, i even tried to ask him for money i had sent for a specific purpose that wasnt used for that, and it has been in voice mail since then. People can just be horrible...

CareerStart A Business Or Get A Masters Degree?? by peren(op): 9:34am On Sep 18, 2014
Hi guys,

I would like some advice, i graduated with a degree in Engineering 6 years ago, i was never without a job as after service year i was retained in the Electrical and Mechinacal Construction company i worked, ( prepared bills of quantities, n tender docs) i got bored and got another job with a tech start up(did many different things there), did 2 years there and moved to a oil servicing coy.

I haven't worked long enough as an engineer to seek for an experienced position in an engineering coy and i have been out of school for too long to be considered as a fresh graduate(2-2). My current job has no career growth prospects its pays enough to keep me content, but i worry for the future, so now at cross roads i wonder if i should start up a small business, which i can grow and fall back to, or just keep me busy(my current job is not that demanding) and give me something to invest in, or get a masters degree to both increase my knoweldge and my chances at getting a better job(not better pay, but career growth prospects and security)
HealthHealth Care Should Be Free by peren(op): 8:31am On Sep 18, 2014
I recently got started getting some anxiety attacks(my heart rate increases), no sweating no exhustion, i just felt the need to see a doctor, but then i started wondering which hospital to go to what consultancy would cost, n if i should just wait out my symptoms(since they are not life threathing) etc etc.. and this is me who earn an average salary, its not a very offical set up so i do not have HMO plans and all of those. I den start to wonder about people who do not have jobs or those who can barely pay their bills, and i figured that health care should be free for everyone, not just in govt hospitals cause i do not think there are enough of those.

To end my story what hospital can I go to I Portharcourt, and get good medi care without been ripped off.

Christianity EtcRe: What Is Your Favourite Christian Hymn? by peren: 9:08am On Sep 08, 2014
My favourite changes with season, my current favourite is MY HELP COMETH FROM THE LORD>>>

I will lift up mine eyes to the hills
from whence cometh my help,
my help cometh from the Lord,
the Lord which made Heaven and Earth.

He said He would not suffer thy foot,
thy foot to be moved;
the Lord which keepeth thee,
He will not slumber nor sleep.

Bridge
Oh the Lord is thy keeper,
the Lord is thy shade
upon thy right hand,
upon thy right hand.

No, the sun shall not smite thee by day,
nor the moon by night,
He shall preserve thy soul
even forever more.

[Chorus:]
My help, my help, my help,
all of my help cometh from the Lord.

[Verse]

[Bridge]

TravelRe: No Nigerians Welcome In Tanzania by peren: 1:51pm On Sep 04, 2014
I feel really bad reading this post am not sure i would have wanted to go to TZ if i had seen this article.

Fast forward to 2014, Although we did not travel by road and hence we didn't have to face those policies( don't know if they still exist), but we were granted visa at the airport once, their immigration officer had acertained we were on holiday. However, in one resort where we weren't booked, we were just driving around and wanted to have dinner there, the man at the gate made a call after learning that we were from Lagos Nigeria and told us that they was no space in the resturant, that they had so many guests bla bla, politely though. Also i felt we were questioned a little more dan necessary at some places, by our African brothers n sisters, am not sure i blame them though, these resorts are mostly patronized my muzungus, they are probablly asking if we are lost as they are not very use to seeing black people take pleasure in such things. Anyway I guess this is some kind of progress
TravelRe: Planing A Trip To Tanzania, Needs Advice And Tips. by peren(op): 12:34pm On Sep 04, 2014
From the beach resort we headed out to moshi, where the mount kili (kilimanjaro) resides. We went by road so as to view the country side and actually get a feel of how the people move around. It was an 8 hr bus ride and it was exasperating, as in, it just reminded me of my school days when I had to commute by bus back to the east. About half way into the journery we decided we were not going back by road, we had had see all the country side we needed to see.
Did i mention they tried to cheat us at the park? They saw Black Muzungu(oyibo), they told us that arusha was before moshi and since we were going to moshi we would have to pay more than was stated on the ticket to arusha(moshi is actually before arusha), also forming the whole the bus is about to move thing, pay fast so you can join this bus oh, my friend hurridely paid even while I was still trying to argue the difference with what was written on the ticket and the amount they had asked us to pay(we did get our money back).
My conclusion: people are people and they wud always try to cheat you if they see an oppturnity, its not just a Nigerian thing, But perharps we would not have got the money back if it was in Nigeria.

Some of the sights that made the road trip worth while.
