So I start!#what I did differently this year that got me admission#

Lol...the most important step that guaranteed my admission this year was taken last year...lol...so when I had admisn prblm...I was made to blv it's kinda spiritual(family ish)since 2012 and I was told to come and pray on the mountain....never blvd dat though until last year when I failed jamb....so I decided to go for the prayers...I actually spent 21days on the mountain!fasting and praying...lolz....we plenty for dat mountain wey dey find admsn mehn....lolz...the prayer points actually were not about admission fully,more of God should stop our enemies to stop wasting our time and that we should have breakthrough...after I finished d prayers..the believe just came from nowhere dat I wld get admsn this year...


And then another factor was that pd made sure I read like never b4.....it's not a curse,but I don't think I can read under such pressure ever again...we try for reading o..mae we no lie....this 2 factors were the main factors that eventually got me admitted into the Only available University ile-ife this year!


I learnt that mostimes those things we never wanted to do are the keys to our desires...(Mountain and pd)in my own case....there u have it....I nominate deji!

I noticed that most of us on this thread hav been seeking admission for long...so following the trend of timmy,when everybody is through with their testimony I wld suggest another topic which is:WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU DID DIFFERENTLY THIS YEAR THAT MADE YOU GOT ADMISSION??did you;

Read extensively unlike the previous years,

Listened to some advise from someone that eventually paid off,

Got closer to God

EducationRe: OAU 2014/2015 FRESHERS (newly Admitted Students) Meet Here by understatement:
Lol...

As a young boy,all I wanted to become was a soldier.I wld cry all day if my mum refuses to by me the latest toy gun or police car.Till today,my dad still calls me "army soldier"..lol.As a young boy,I didn't have all the motivation,advice from my parents because they both went to secondary school only..so I was just going to school for going sake.

But then,I was too inquisitive.I wld ask u anything I don't understand.My neigbour in U I wld tell me just go to secondary school and become an art student so you could study law cus u ask too much questions,so the whole idea of law started with him.


Thank God I have a natural hatred for math from pry schl,so becoming an art student in secondary school was easy with the intention to studying law.But,in SS1,I discovered what I love doing most-MUSIC!..lol..I would download any genre of music ranging from pop to gospel,jazz,fuji etc..But thank God for Nigeria,u don't have to study music b4 u do it..lol..but I still might if need be or chanced..

So I put in for law bcus:

Seriously there are not so many courses for art students

Somehow I have always wanted to study law since my neighbour told me

My parents sake:they didn't make it more than the second skul,so I wanted to make them proud somehow e.g by having a lawyer as a son

Even if u don't practise,u wld forever be regarded as one

Music/singing is innit so why don't I seek knowledge on what I don't have..law


No,I wasn't home for 3yrs cus I am a dullard..I can actually study the best courses out there


Last year,a pastor told me I wld study law..lwkm


Because I can!


So do I see myself standind in the law court doing cases after law school?I don't think so..but man proposes sha...if I don't take music as a profession,I wld still be doing it in anything I do in life..

But if dia is one thing av always been calm about is my future...I know it will eventually sort out itself(by the owner God..lol)...and no matter what I eventually do,I will make it in there..even selling gala..lol..


It's somehow funny how we still don't know what we will do to raise a family..lol...that's the beauty of life anyways...

So thanks for d nomination dora..and I nominate..emmm....who is active on this thread that havnt talked sef?lemme check

A conversation with my younger sister

Me:you know you are a fool for what you just did

Her:no I am not

Me:so am i?

Her: I never said dat..

Me:shut up!u just said you are not a fool thus making me one

Her:noo..I meant I am not a fool for doing what I did cus I have my reasons

Me:haha!u are still insisting u are not a fool?u are an id*ot!

Her:kk..am sorry

Immediately I left her,I went into my room and started laughing..like she did have a reason for what she did..but as YORUBA culture implies if an elderly person calls u names or abuses you...u just have to admitt you are..if u say no that means you are automatically saying the person is the name he/she called you...even if u didn't..lol

Share urs..

Lolz..I belong to the debaters grin grin grin

The witty:These ones are funny u look forward 2 them speaking..anything they say is just a comic relief..even in tensed situations..their disadvantage is that even if they do something that pains u and u feel like killing them..immediately u see them u begin to laugh and that's how u will 4give them..

P S:they are usually short


The Fighters:anytime u hear gbas!gbos! they must be there..u wonder if dia future has anyfin to do with skul


The Aged:no..he hasn't gone to poly or nce,no..he hasn't given birth..na jamb do am bad bad...these one's are called broda lagbaja or tamedu..any small thing btwn u 2 ur friends begin to warn u"guy u and broda no be mate o...he tells u himself if u offend him and u hear stories like"my younga broda has given birth to 2kids..my yunga sista is a final year student..know how u talk to me o"

Their opposite:he is the youngest in d room..wrote jamb once and got admitted..they tend to annoy u everyday and when u want to get angry at him..he begs and tells u"hey..na like dis u dey beat ur younger broda @home..u know sae I be small pikin now...abeg abeg"ur roomates laughs and den u'l eventually leave him


The pretenders:u will neva see him read,he talks parties,football,and argues all the time...u'l neva see him read his books but when the results are out..u begin to wonder if it's not God that gave him is kind of brain and give u urs...

The stingy:hardly will u see these ones have left over They cook 1 cup of rice,3 slice of yam,1 indomie..when u come back from lecture and u see them them eating,,don't be happy bro..the food is only for him..why I like dem is that they don't ask when u are eating urs too..


The ones that spends their pocket money on gals and settle for garri in dia hostels...


And lastly,in nigerian hostels today,every room has an upcoming artiste!
