Fashion › Re: Do Guys Like Ladies With Make-up? by queensmith: 4:12pm On May 29, 2012
maybe in nigeria where the all the girls are potential prostitutes the women are falling over themselves for men.

Like I said earlier- the fashion industry you think is built to appease you, is ran by men who couldnt care less what you think. In other words, the thoughts and opinions of men (attracted to women) count for nothing in the fashion and beauty industry.

Now you can continue to delude yourselves and draw up nonsense illogical conclusions from your arses.

honeric01: But most women are potential pros.titues, aren't they? if not, why the competition with other women? they always want to be the best for the highest bidder (men). grin

Whether you like it or not, the reason you compete with one another as women is to be the last woman standing that takes all the attention of the men away from the rest.
What a backwards assumption,

with your logic I can say that all men are potential rapists because they compete with other men for girls.
What a nonsense statement. about last women standing in the 21st century.

I'm sorry to tell you men are no longer important in this world, it's every man and woman to him/herself!

shymmex: The funniest thing is that health and social care degree is more tedious (the tasks involved) albeit easier to the brain than most science courses... They have to keep doing placements, and field work all through the duration of the course...
o cmon! you don't need a degree for any of this nonsense!

Destinations of graduates
Here are some examples of the jobs that Health & Social Care graduates get shortly after they leave university. These examples are based on graduates who have replied to the annual collection of graduates' destinations conducted by UK universities. Full destinations of all University of Kent graduates (1999-PRESENT) can be found here

Residential Care Worker - Ethelbert Homes
Learning Support Assistant - Bexley Business Academy
Graduate Trainee Recruitment Consultant
Volunteer Co-ordinator - Sense
Operating Dept. Practitioner - NHS
Care Assistant - Nursing Home
Trainee Medical Technical Officer - NHS
Assistant Librarian - County Council
Residential Social Worker - Local Authority
Youth Worker - Local Authority

Learning Support Worker - Special Needs School
Classroom Assistant - Primary School
Postgraduate Diploma in Gerontology
Diploma in Social Work - Wolverhampton University
Personal Adviser - Connexions

http://www.kent.ac.uk/careers/healthsocialcare.htm

Gerontology sounds good though, ageing. . . sexy.

but why waste 3 years doing nonsense? There are sooo many academic courses to take where you will learn invaluable information you cant get from a placement or years of experience.
That should be the whole point of going to university and not simply starting work from college (especially since you pay thousands of pounds for it!)

shymmex: You need to understand that everyone can't be as intelligent as you want them to be - and people do what suit their temperament.

Health and social care jobs do pay more than let's say accounting degree (if you can't get a graduate job). And they also have the luxury of going further into nursing...
.
And you are right, 'intelligence' is subjective and out means of assessing it are class defined.

My african/scientific arrogance was shining through there but you are 100% correct.

however oooo, i do not agree with this health and social care nonsense. I just refuse to.

Most people with accounting degree that I know of, ended up working as a trainee with a wage of about 14,000-16,000p/a.. You can make that working night shifts in a Tesco warehouse - or doing a security job...

Most people who studied accounting at the university have no business going to uni in the first place - when they can work as a trainee straight out of college, and take AAT courses... Doing accounting in uni is a waste of time... But who am I to critique their choice?? To each, their own.
Actually accounting is non academic so it's on the same level with health and social care grin grin grin.

those are paid prostitutes, we are not talking about the sex trade we are talking about normal women.

Tgirl4real: Sincerely, am still dumbfounded at the president's speech. Our president has indded lost focus with his cassava bread n local rice agenda. Funny, d prices of these comodity are on the increase daily. Could you believe a derica of beans being sold for N200?

I still wonder if we have a leader in this country. Who are those that make up JOnathan's board of advisory? Cos they are as brainless as their leader. The guy isn't sharp at all. Must he pack all the project together at once? Can't he focus on 1 or 2 projects.

He hasn't been able to achieve one tangible thing.

And What da hell!!! UNILAG now MKO Uni...the biggest joke of the century huh
Derica? I've forgotten is that the long can? AH! when did it stop being 120 for the big bowl? lol

I dont think im going back home if everything is going to cost an arm and a leg oooo, ah

shymmex: Don't talk about things you don't know - just stick to your security job, and leading a fake life on NL...

I studied Computer Science at University of Birmingham, and there were loads of black people in my class.. Heck, a naija guy was one of the two students who graduated with a first class degree.... Heck, most of the black people I know (the black student are close knitted because we all go to the same parties) didn't most of the courses you guys keep spamming the thread with - except probably some girls doing health and social care, and that's understandable... Health and social care pays more than most of the business and accounting courses anyways, and it's easier to get a job with health and social care degree...

You're a cat5 slowpoke, people like you shouldn't be allowed to have kids...
You can't blame him if he only knows the lowlife black people.

Say wort? Health and social care does wort? Since when? where, what exactly do these health and social care people do I must know. Are they the social workers?

The general consensus (soo far) is that courses which require lengthy examinations are best are measuring intelligence. Whether this is the real case is still under debate but for now ooo- as far as we can see health and social care is for nonsense people doing nonsense.

honeric01: They surely need confirmation from us or who else are you dressing to impress? yourself or your mates?
Actually yes, i live to please me. and my friends too. Random men from nowhere? Are you going to pay me? Does money enter into my account if you like my make up? Does it? Do bentleys appear on my drive way? Do the bills begin to pay themselves?

mshew.
Fashion › Re: Do Guys Like Ladies With Make-up? by queensmith: 9:37am On May 29, 2012
boluoyinbo: To know a pretty woman is to see her very early in the moring when she wakes up! Make up to me is an additional make over to make a woman beautifull but underneath it does not show the real beauty of the woman.......
abi- when a man is ugly there is nothing he can do about it. He just has to carry his ugly face up and down. Can you imagine the torture it is being an ugly man. Especially if he now has acne- eurgh his face will be inducing vomit everywhere. People will not sit next to him on public transport! *shudder*

[quote author=ekt_bear]Yes. We paid for my K-12 education through property taxes. It wasn't really "free."

College for sure I (and my family) paid for. I still have some student loan debt, actually.

I could have gone to my state school (university of maryland) on a full ride. But I'm happy with my choice. I think it opened up a lot of doors to me that wouldn't have been available to me otherwise..[/quote]Shame, I thought you was in the uk.

Well in the UK, you don't have to pay for anything and are therefore given (more) of a chance at a better future.
The welfare system is a huge benefit to many (including immigrants), people (especially children) should have the right to education no matter what their parents earn.
Fashion › Re: Do Guys Like Ladies With Make-up? by queensmith: 9:27am On May 29, 2012
I like how women are now coming to justify their choices of make up trying to prove themselves to men they do not know.

i like it, it's very interesting to see. Very interesting claim to confidence you have there.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Why Is England More Developed And Stable Than America? by queensmith: 9:20am On May 29, 2012
[quote author=ekt_bear]Indeed. The 17 year old child and his family should pay for their education.

Is it not that same child and his family who will benefit if he gets a high-paying job upon graduation?[/quote]How well does that work in Nigeria?

Everybody needs to be given an equal chance, which is why the government used to subsidize degrees. Even immigrants have benefited from the social policies you now want to claim to hate.

Did your sister pay for secondary school or college? Did you?
Foreign Affairs › Re: Why Is England More Developed And Stable Than America? by queensmith: 9:14am On May 29, 2012
[quote author=ekt_bear]Besides, even if you parents are uneducated and thus cannot provide you good advice about what to study in school, what about mentors at school? Or you doing your own research/investigation?

My sister for example, she has been heavily researching which course of study she wants to do at her university in the fall. Which one will be good fit for her goal of going to med school.

And she has done this research primarily by herself (though she presented her findings to me afterwards).[/quote]What mentors? If you ended up a college mentor how much can you know? mshew.

What are you saying she researched and ended up with the desire to study medicine? How much research does that require? When the whole world does it?
The whole world wants to go to med school, she will probably do a life sciences degree and if she doen't get into med she will be stuck with a useless degree (god help her do it in a crap uni) and be singing the same tune as the rest of the world now. Knee deep in debt with a degree not worth jack. What a creative decision indeed.

See if you told me she researched on how to become an astronaut now, you will be talking.

It's not that easy don't try and make it out to be. All these young children have no idea about job prospects and end up studying nonsense.
There are soo many careers out there and paths to take, most don't even need degrees. But these uni's are soo bent on selling degrees they will sell absolutely anything to unsuspecting young kids.

[quote author=ekt_bear]@queensmith: I'm not angry at the universities actually. After all, why should they be forced to pass up the chance to extract money from idjits who wants to study David Beckham studies, sociology, etc on the government dime?

The main person to blame is the UK government, by not placing more of the financial burden on the 17 year old child. Do you think that if things were like the US, where the only assistance the FG will provide you is with Stafford loans, that people will be so keen on amassing huge debt to take a course David Beckham studies?

No...they'll do the math and realize that such a course is not financially wise.

The government is the culprit here, for encouraging bad behavior.[/quote]What are you saying? A 17 year old child should pay for his/her own education? Where have you seen that?

The universities need to stop selling degrees as job prospects to children. It's unethical. These are CHILDREN!

Onegai: I'll give you the advice I wished I gave my sister and my best friend.
"People don't change unless they want to. So accept what you see now as the truth and if a man shows you himself, believe him"
My sis dated her hubby 7 years and has been married 13 yrs, my bestie dated her hubby 1 year and has been married 2yrs. Both cases like yours.
Both men are still cheating and dealing with their wives and sleeping well at night whilst their wives cry. How your fiance treats you is NOT because of you, it's because of his own issues and until he works on himself, not cry and beg, he WILL NOT change. I promise you that's the truth. So be praying to God to give you strength and wisdom to do the right thing. Remember, this is a man who dated another girl for 4 yrs while proposing to you, you think men and women can keep the same person as backup for so long without feelings, you think it was just sex that kept him there?! because my bestie's hubby did the same, and after marriage, he went back to that chick and that one bounced him, and he missed her, so he went onto to several more chicks. And he gave my bestie an STD (and she was a virgin when dem marry,but fear say she dey get old, so...). Be afraid for yourself and be wise.
Why are women soo desperate in this day and age, this is a very sad story.

Even having 'back up' isn't justifiable unless you agree to an open relationship. Men being just as insecure as these women will NEVER agree to that. People are ridiculous to subject themselves to nonsense.

Reason why you should have listened to your inner voice, it's there for a reason.


Are you abroad now? Because there are more than plenty of men who will not lie to you and treat you like rubbish.

[quote author=ekt_bear]Do they then receive unemployment checks after studying David Beckham studies at some crappy university? Or some sort of government financial support?[/quote]Your anger is misdirected, universities shouldn't be offering useless courses to children.

At the end of the day you are asking a 17 year old child to make a lifetime decision. For a middle class individual surrounded by an educated family this will be an easy decision.

If you are poor your parents are uneducated, how are you going to know which course gets you the job and what doesn't?

We are the product of our environments.

As far as I'm concerned universities should be able to guarantee their courses (to citizens) because not only are these children wasting time they are wasting (taxpayers) money.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Why Is England More Developed And Stable Than America? by queensmith: 8:10am On May 29, 2012
Katsumoto: One of the universities offers an undergraduate program studying David Beckham.

Most of the students are shying away from serious programs; most are interested in media programs cos they feel its glamorous and easy.

An MP once proposed a Bill in parliament to dumb down the sciences so as encourage more students to take them up.

When these students graduate and can't find work, they start complaining. But they must share the blame with their parents and the university chiefs who are offering ridiculous programs.
Beckology? Aye mi oo lol.
And it's black people that will now study it, why they don't stay at home and do construction is beyond me.

Dumbing down the science degrees, where did you see that?

Well a student can only do the programme he/she is offered, it's not as if most of us have the options to go to Harvard and do what we like. Even Imperial offers unaccredited courses all down to the dumbing down degree situation. It leaves those studying these 'prestigious' courses jobless because our theoretical degrees hold no substance in the workforce.

So you're damned if you do, damned if you dont. I just don't understand why Africans love them useless universities. Africans that are educated? Kilode! Some even pay extreme amounts of money for it? I swear the last time I checked the metropolitan charged more that LSE?

When these black youths insist on going to brunel and kingston what do they expect, abeg. And to add salt to my wounds they study things like 'media studies' 'health and social care' I will even allow criminology and sociology.

Then they want to get jobs, doing what exactly? These universities selling degrees are not even held accountable for selling nonsense to children. Look at the stats smh.
