That 1st insta-post that criticized her is so stupid but funny at the same time....especially with the way the badmouth ended it: "....just my honest opinion...love you...God fav."

Who asked for that one's opinion? People won't learn to mind their business sha.

The Creator of heaven and earth, the unchangeable changer, the maker of everything that breathes, the sculptor of everything that does not breathe, I worship you!

The award can go to know anyone.If you think having a nomination makes you an automatic winner then you don’t know nothing

you don't know anything or you know nothing.

First, I do not understand the entitlement mentality that makes you think that your cousin is entitled to the family's N500k.

Even your thread asks if it is fair. Fair to whom? Who is the wronged party here? Do a couple cannot decide how to spend their N712k again?

Secondly, that couple in addition to attending your cousin's wedding hooked up with relatives, lost friends, reconnected with Nigeria, enjoyed road trips and even had a mini-honeymoon.

I think it is poverty that makes us value money above the presence and show of love.

A relative I had not seen in years came for my wedding. She thought I had forgotten her till I told her a slang from years back and she laughed heartily.

The next time I saw her, she was dead.

I value that memory above whatever money she would have given us.

Experience, memories is key for me.

Gosh, we are too transactional.

Well said.

@OP...Change your mentality. Life is a collection of experiences and memories, not money and things.

This is so sad.

Look at the question someone is asking at the end of the 2010s decade.

lol

I always wonder if people don't want intelligent or at least academically-sound children in this present age.

I believe the government can do better and make enabling environment for the masses, a landing pier at iyanoworo with a massive car park that can hold 5000 cars built in steps would go a long way in reducing traffic on 3rd mainland bridge in the morning.

People living in ikorodu can take a ferry from ikorodu to iyano woro, those from Berger or ogunstate can enter brt to iyanoworo and take a ferry to the island, the car park would make life easier for those coming from far, they park at the iyanoworo car park and take ferry to island or apapa.

A win win situation for government and citizens. Iyanoworo would be made like a ferry interchange just like oshodi since it is a central water way in Lagos. I hope the powers that be won't turn it into water front estate or luxury water front apartment.

so help us God

Nice post.

They should also remind people using the ferry to invest in swimming lessons.

Thank you Jesus

Suspectzero:
What does this even mean? ITA is determined by faith and not how high your CRS score is?

I wondered as well...

ITA received.

God will do those of others on this thread in Jesus name.

KayLayChi:
My dear, no be fight. I said what I felt.

The person you quoted was actually trying to be encouraging and optimistic, not 'fighting' you. And he/she was proven right few minutes ago about the draw being done today or not.

Relax. it is well.

I also haven't gotten the ITA yet. CRS: 483

How will you guys know if there has been a draw pls? Is it by an automatic email update or what? Cos it seems like nothing today...

Laundry (thank God for washing machine). I actually 'love' doing dishes.

nasohian:
For canadian resume format, is it acceptable for one to colour the subheadings eg , skills,work experience, eductaion etc? Or better to to leave everything in black and white?
Are tables permitted?
Any specific font size?

Leave black and white.
Tables in a resume? Really? Nope.
font size 12, Times New Roman font type should do.

Thank you, Father.

Interesting...

I saw this movie yesterday and haven't remained the same. Best movie I have seen this year (and I have seen Joker).

This is true cinema. This is surely the frontrunner at the Oscars for Best Foreign Film. Nollywood that has been screaming about Lionheart's disqualification should watch this and they will think twice.

Wow! What a film!

Busy peppersoup I had at a friend's place yesternight. It was really good.

BluntBoy:
You have enumerated your husband's bad qualities. And, frankly, they are indeed bad qualities. Insensitive is an understatement.

However, you can't tell me that you are a saint yourself.

Many women have this misconception about what makes a man happy. They feel like all it takes to be a good wife is to be a good cook, do his laundry, give him sex whenever he wants it, and support him financially when necessary.

They forget healthy communication. Some women claim they support their men financially, but the things those men hear and see from receiving financial support from their wives can make a man commit suicide.

You say he is not doing anything about the torn net? Who told you he is not doing anything? It may appear to you like he is not doing anything but it doesn't mean he is not doing anything.

Imagine your husband getting stressed up about the torn net, and the next thing he hears from you is that "you are not doing anything about the net".

Many times, we find faults in our partners and consider ourselves the perfect one in the relationship. Your husband might be insensitive not necessarily out of his own desire, but forces beyond his control.

The window he left open might have even been done absent-mindedly. I have seen a man drive to a petrol station and leave on foot. People had to call him back. The man was so deep in thoughts that he forgot that he drove into the station.

Your husband might have been absent-minded. But because you have preconditioned your mind about him, you concluded that he is insensitive. Are you 100% sure that you have not been insensitive to his plights too?

The way you describe his dreams of becoming rich one day shows that you don't care about his dreams. You just want him to bring that money home. You have come to see his dreams as nothing but fantasies and have come to detest him sharing his dreams with you.

I am not making excuses for your husband. I am just trying to encourage you to search yourself as well.

In what tone do you speak to your husband on sensitive issues such as money? Some women use gentle tones, but the rudeness is always unmistakable. When he talks about getting rich one day, do you hiss or deliberately pretend not to hear? Do you give him the impression that you have lost all hopes in him ever becoming successful?

Like I once said, this is one of those posts one would have given a 'like', but on a closer look, you realise it isn't saying much.

So nooobody thought Lionheart was worthy to be submitted to the Oscars? The same Lionheart that was picked up and promoted by Netflix might I add. I actually liked it. And if you actually watch the movies that are nominated for Oscars, it was worthy to contend. Almost all of them have the same formula, they are dramas, a consistent plot, (main point of the film), goodcinematography, de character development, the underdog wins in the end, easy enough for someone not familiar with the culture to follow along, and good screenwritting(script). Those are the things the Oscars are looking for, not eye candy, theatrics, or comedic lines. Just because something is not your cup of tea(preference) doesnt mean its not deserving of success and recognition. It is a shame, however, that it didnt follow the guidelines, if it had, i believe it would have been a good contender. It would be good for some of you to actually see the past nominees that have won or lost and then form a better analysis. Im proud of what she tried to do.

You made some very good points though. It was actually a good, well-made movie (which I cannot say for most Nigerian movies). I think all Nigerians want are plot-driven movies with twists and slapstick comedies, not character-driven, heart-wrenching stories with depth. We like 'interesting' movies...lol.
Let me just say it: many Nigerians have terrible tastes movie-wise.

Nonetheless, Mokalik was a BETTER movie compared to Lion Heart and might have qualified. My grouse is with the so-called selection committee that picked this. Didn't they read the rules for the category?!

Spicy goat for my darling. Served with medemede.

What would you remove from this plate?

Madam, do you own a restaurant? Because all these food pics you are serving...ah!

Oh dear...

Acidosis:
If you're single, you feed yourself and have a roof over your head, then you can marry. There are no special bills or taxes for married people. Your stomach and portion of food do not get bigger with marriage. Your electricity or water bill do not increase because you're married. Same electricity, same cable TV, same quantity of water, same rent, etc.

In fact, it is easier for two WORKING and sensible people because they're able to put resources together to achieve a better result. E.g. If you've being paying rent alone, you can share bills (not necessarily in equal proportions).

The only thing that makes a difference is pregnancy & child upkeep, and to the best of my knowledge, this is optional. After all, single men and women have more sex than married people, without fear of pregnancy.

To blame finance for being single is lack of SENSE and understanding. It is perpetual failure of the brain to think MARRIAGE between two people will drain finance faster than the single folks. It is like living alone to bear all cost Vs. living and sharing bills with a room mate.

Think.

This is one of those posts one would have 'liked' before realizing, on a closer look, it is not saying much.
