deedeenaa:You can start anytime at your own convienence, but I'll advice you do it after dinner as nothing goes into your mouth till the next morning. |
I'll need the students to reply to be sure they are following |
Things needed; A toothbrush (fancy ones to be precise) Pot (medium) Pliers Hand Towel Scissors and Water. Next is PROCEDURE |
ubiquitousade:For the sake of believing, I would. |
On this thread, I'lll be taking you on a step by step guide on how to turn your toothbrush into a wonderful bangle. It's simple and very creative. You can even sell your work piece. I'll need at least 5 students to comment for the class to start. |
KanwuliaJara:May the Lord forgive you. |
Shea butter giving you pimples is because of your skin type. I'v actually used it before without any pimple or sort. So next time you are commenting, try to be specific, not talking as if it does it to all. |
corisande:Shea butter known as "ori" is a natural product that not only cleanses but exfoliates your skin. If it were to be dangerous, producers wont be mixing it in body cream, hair cream and drugs. So please, try to make enquires before commenting, afterall we are in the jet age. |

"Hello George Obi on the line,: I said into the mouthpiece. "That is Nene, I'm calling from the hospital." Nene was my sister in-law, Mariam's younger sister.She moved in with us after her NYSC, just about six months after our marriage. She'd been living with us since.When she mentioned she was calling from the hospital, my heart began to race. "Hospital?What are you doing in a hospital?" I asked. "Uncle George, it's aunty;" "Aunty?But she's not due yet.the last time we saw the doctor,he said in two months time." "Well, I got home earlier in the afternoon to meet her in pain. The house girl had just gone to the market,so she just sprawled on the floor writhing in pain. I had to call a taxi and bring her to the hospital." "So what happened?. What did the doctor say was wrong?" I tried to calm my head as the worst of what could have happened flashed through my head.Was Mariam dead? For a minute I could only hear Nene's breath whistling through the earpiece. "Nene are you there? I asked you a question, I said what happened?" "When we got to the hospital the doctor said she was in labor and she was quickly rushed to the labor room. "Yes, so what happened?"I was pressing the handset so hard to my ear that it hurt. "She was rushed to the labor room and after about two hours or so,she gave birth. But the baby died immediately."She went on, but I wasn't listening anymore. Only one thing made meaning to me. My baby was dead immediately. For a long while my thought swished round like a great whirl wind |
goodmorning40:I"m not done yet, that was just the introduction. |
George and Mariam were a perfect couple. Their love for each other was unadulterated. Their only worry was the fact that they were childless. Anytime she gets pregnant,there are always miscarriages. Unknown to them,they had been wining and grinding with a demon. Only divine intervention saved them as light eventually triumphs over darkness. |
abbydulcet:just read it all over carefully. Its self explanatory |
Brandnew2:A cow doesnt knw the value of its tail until it is cut off. |
Brandnew2:One man's meat is another man's poison |
Brandnew2:And who says you can't have it? You can dear,just go for it. |
haydot95:I'm so sorry, that should be server failure. I'll get it uploaded later in the day |
Please I would like to read your comments and corrections. Thanks |
On the farm was where he met his death. Peter climbed the palm tree and pulled out a long knife to harvest the ripe bunch, But he miscalculated,lost his balance and fell. He broke his skull and died on the spot. Rita and her mother,Tami cried bitterly,Tami on several occasions had attempted to take her life. Inorder to prevent Tami from commiting suicide, Tami's father decided it would be better for her to remarry after all the burial rites of Peter so she would be able to forget about him. |
Peter had seen the turbulence of the night and was visibly shaken.He did not feel like going out.Yet he remembered it was he's turn to host the villagers the next day at the council meeting.He had never had this opportunity before and did not wish to be a failure.He carefully went through the requirements of that day and found out that palmoil was missing.That was no problem because he had on his farm some palmtrees.That dreadful night he wandered out of his house to harvest some palmfruits. |
Rita flung herself on the body of her father and rocked it savagely in a grim effort to revive him. She had thought the man would wake up. She was used to waking him up by tossing him around. But all she got on her face and her arms were her father's blood. The man had gone, never to return. Few hours before her father's death, in the little village of Abati, there were violent flashes, thunder and lightning. The heavens opened and rain poured for several minutes and at last it stopped. |
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Who else gave man the wisdom but the Lord God the creator of the ends of the earth. He is highly acknowledged. Secondly, my mum, the only one keeping me going on earth. I love you my dearest mum. DEDICATION This book is dedicated to those who are in love. |

Your cheeks have a huge impact on how you look. Chubby cheeks create a youthful appearance, high cheekbones are considered attractive by many and saggy cheeks are often a sign of aging. One’s face looks fuller at a younger age due to the presence of subcutaneous fat under the skin. This fat is especially located along the cheeks, giving the face a healthy and chubby appearance. The subcutaneous fat reduces with age, resulting in saggy cheeks and an older-looking appearance. A sunken, sallow face can occur for a variety of reasons and many find it unattractive. Sponsored links Most babies have chubby cheeks that give them an innocent and beautiful look. Now, many adults prefer chubby cheeks to maintain a youthful appearance. Trying to get chubby cheeks does not mean piling up fat on your face. You can achieve it by toning your facial skin. A few natural techniques, exercises and home remedies can give your cheeks a plumper and chubby look. how to get chubby cheeks Here are the top 6 ways to get chubby cheeks. 1. Facial Yoga Facial yoga is the best way to get chubby cheeks and lift sagging skin. It helps produce collagen and elastin, both of which make your skin firm and help to plump up, lift and augment hollow cheeks. Place both forefingers in line with the flare of your nostrils just under the apex of your cheekbones. Make small, firm outward circles in the cheek depression for 1 to 2 minutes. Next, place both forefingers on either side of your nose on the smile furrows, about ½ inch from the outer corners of your lips. Do small, outward circles with your fingertips for 1 to 2 minutes. Finally, place both forefingers on the hinges of your jaw. Make small, firm upward circles in this depression for 1 to 2 minutes. Repeat this complete facial yoga routine a few times a day. You can also do facial exercises such as cheek presses and cheek lifts to tone your cheek muscles. 2. Blow Balloons You can also blow balloons to work out your cheek muscles. The process of blowing into a balloon puffs up your cheeks, which in turn helps build up the muscles to add beef to your cheeks. Blow into a balloon with your mouth. Hold your puffed-up cheeks for 1 minute before letting out the air. Do this 5 or 6 times each day. You can even perform this exercise by blowing into imaginary balloons. 3. Olive Oil Olive oil is a time-tested remedy to get chubby cheeks. It contains healthy, monounsaturated fats that aid in maintaining healthy and supple skin. Olive oil works as the perfect moisturizer for dry skin and ensures soft skin. It also helps prevent wrinkles and fine lines. Consume 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil daily. Use warm olive oil to massage your cheeks in an upward direction for 5 to 10 minutes twice daily. 4. Aloe Vera Aloe Vera has natural skin-tightening properties that help get rid of sagging cheeks and also promote skin elasticity. Moreover, the antioxidants in aloe Vera prevent damage caused by free radicals and boost collagen production to give you younger-looking skin. Massage your cheeks with fresh aloe Vera gel using circular motions for 10 minutes. Allow it to sit for another 10 minutes, then rinse it off with warm water. Do this twice daily. Another option is to drink juice prepared from 2 tablespoons of aloe Vera gel once daily. 5. Fenugreek Fenugreek can also help you get chubby yet firm cheeks. It has vitamins and antioxidants that combat free-radical damage and help promote smooth and healthy skin. Mix 1 tablespoon of fenugreek powder with a little water to make a thick paste. Apply the paste on your cheeks and massage gently. Leave it on for 10 minutes, then rinse it off with water. Follow this remedy once daily. Another option is to massage your cheeks with fenugreek oil 1 or 2 times daily. 6. Shea Butter Shea butter is high in fatty acids that can help improve the elasticity of the skin. Moreover, the vitamin E in Shea butter helps tighten the skin to give your cheeks a firm yet chubby appearance. Rub some Shea butter onto your cheeks and massage in an upward and circular motion for 10 minutes. Allow it to sit for 15 minutes, then wash it off with water. Use this remedy a few times a week. Prepare a thick mixture with one cup of melted Shea butter and ¾ cup of granulated sugar. Store it in the refrigerator until it becomes solid. Apply it on your wet face and massage using gentle circular motions for 5 minutes. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes, then rinse it off with warm water. Follow this remedy daily before taking your daily bath or shower. |

Dark coloration of the skin in the underarms region is usually not a disease or medical condition. Dark underarms can be thought of as the skin’s response to exposure to certain elements, similar to a suntan that results from exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Some of the main causes of dark underarms are shaving, regular use of hair removing creams, excessive sweating, poor ventilation of underarms, accumulation of dead skin cells, and use of alcohol-based deodorants and antiperspirants. You can easily get rid of dark underarms using simple home remedies that are safe, effective, natural and affordable. Sponsored links However, at times dark underarms may also be as a result of a medical condition that is known as acanthosis nigricans which is often associated with insulin resistance, obesity, hormonal disorders, certain medications, and cancer. If your dark underarms are caused by this condition then you must consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. how to get rid of dark underarms Here are the top 10 ways to get rid of dark underarms. 1. Potato The mild acidic property present in potatoes is a great natural bleaching agent. Unlike strong bleaching agents, it will not cause skin irritation. Simply rub a thin slice of potato on your underarms. You can also grate the potato and apply the juice to the affected area, allow it to dry for 15 to 20 minutes and then wash it off with lukewarm water. Use either of these remedies twice daily for better and faster results. 2. Cucumber Just like potatoes, cucumbers also have natural bleaching properties to help lighten discolored skin. Simply rub a thin cucumber slice on your underarms or grate a cucumber and apply the juice under your arms. Do this once or twice daily until you are satisfied with the results. Another option is to extract the juice from a cucumber and mix it with a little turmeric powder and lemon juice. Apply this paste on the affected area. Leave it on for 30 minutes, and then wash it off with water. Repeat this home remedy once daily or every other day for best results. 3. Lemon Lemon works as a natural bleach and a powerful antibacterial and antiseptic agent. This is why lemon is used in the treatment of various skin-related problems including dark underarms. Lemon can dry out your skin, so apply a moisturizer after using these remedies if needed. To remove dead skin cells and lighten your underarms, rub a lemon wedge on the skin for a few minutes. Leave the juice on your skin for about 10 minutes and then wash the area thoroughly. For better exfoliation, you can sprinkle a little sugar on the lemon wedge and then use it. Do this a few times a week. Another option is to mix a little turmeric powder, honey or plain yogurt in some lemon juice and apply it to your underarms. Leave it on for about 10 minutes and then wash it off. Repeat three or four times a week. 4. Baking Soda Baking soda can be used to make an exfoliating scrub to get rid of dark underarms. This will help remove dead skin cells, which is one of the main causes of dark underarms. It will also help unclog skin pores. Mix baking soda and water to make a thick paste. Use this paste to scrub your underarms. Wash it off and pat dry the area thoroughly. Repeat a few times a week. You can also apply a light dusting of equal parts of baking soda and cornstarch to neutralize body odor. 5. Orange Peel Orange peels can be used to lighten the skin under your arms, thanks to their skin lightening and exfoliating properties. Put some orange peels in the sun for a few days until they dry out completely. Grind the dried peels into powder form. Mix two teaspoons of powdered orange peels with enough rose water and milk to make a thick paste. Gently scrub your underarms with the paste and then leave it on for about 10 to 15 minutes. Finally, wash the area with cold water. Repeat the process two or three times a week. 6. Coconut Oil Coconut oil is another good option to get rid of dark underarms. Coconut oil contains vitamin E that can help lighten the underarms. At the same time, it will also work as an effective natural deodorant. Massage the dark underarms with coconut oil. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes. Wash it off with mild soap and lukewarm water. Repeat two or three times daily until you achieve the desired results. |
