Happy to hear that response. Sometimes God wants us to take that step of faith before he comes to our aid.
I have got a friend that was doing pretty well in Nigeria but decided to leave for the States. Lo and behold he's a now a force to reckon with and a great testimony to his family and generations to come all because he left with a great dream in mind.
Once you know what are you going there to do and not to wander around please go. You will thank me later.

You believe we will all die one day, if so have you thought of where you will spend eternity when you die? Heaven!

Brothers and Sisters, the only way to make heaven is through the Lord Jesus Christ. John 14:6 " Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh to the father except by me.

Because you can read this means you'v got another opportunity to make amends and turn to Jesus Christ today.
Tomorrow may be too late.
He loves you
He wants you
He died for you on the cross of Calvary
He is coming soon
Accept Him as your Lord and Saviour today and you will spend eternity in Heaven
Are you ready?

Follow your dreams and you won't regret it.
There are better opportunities that would come your way, don't be complacent.
Just have faith and pursue it.

Good for you. At least the whole family can visit once in a while.

bossladyMo:


I found one in Townwville though. Pricey, but good quality.

Waoh! I have got to visit Brisbane soon because of that food.Yet to see where I can get that naija food here in Gold Coast.
Though i have been having a good meal unlike my first week.

gnykelly:


so where have you guys been staying. and how have you been coping jobwise

Imagine that! That makes it interesting.
My regards to your family.

bossladyMo:


So multicultural! My trainer na half Asian half European...but if hear his full blown Aussie accent ehn...you go don bet your entire ancestral linne se na original Aussie.

My experience so far in two weeks, I think I'm getting to hear them very well when they speak unlike when I first came. Though i still repeat myself a lot when I speak to them, it seems they are not familiar with some vocabularies thats just basic to us.
Our convenor told me yesterday she likes my English, she does cos she has travelled far and wide.
Hilarious, its multicultural here thats how i met one chinko wey dey blow accent.

Who is in Gold Coast, Brisbane?

mrnilobrawn:

Glad u touch down safely. I b wan ask u something.

OK, I'm with you.

mrnilobrawn:

Hello bro, u don travell?

Yes, I have travelled. Sup?

What started like a wish is now a reality, all thanks to God for those He has used to achieve this dream.

Bossladymo, your input keeps this forum going
malkinburg, you are sent from God for someone like me
And I want to say a big thank you for the answers to all reasonable and unreasonable questions that have been raised on this forum. I have gained immensely from them all.

I saw a bright and beautifuI city on Tuesday morning when i landed in Gold Coast. I had no issue with border security because I declared my garri, melon and pepper. I told them what i had in my bag when i was asked and the guy that confirmed the content was inpressed with the way i packaged the food items(sealed and well labelled)

So far so good i can confidently say coming to OZ is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I observe that the people here smile a lot and they go extra length to help u with cheerfulness. Why won't they always smile when things are working? Why won't they live long here when the system has made everything to be simple and highly organized?
Please, don't give up on that pursuit because on the long run, it will definitely be worth all the trouble

youngpboy:

Hello house! Which is the best and faster way to pay tuition and oshc? Telegraphic transfer TT or Direct deposit?
I've read about expensive rates by some banks, who has paid off recent and what would you suggest to get a good rate. I use online banking with GTB and also have a domicilary account with EcoBank.
Thanks.

I used my ATM card for both payments.

Your inputs are all needed.

I am Planning to move immediately after Presidential election.
Please can I travel to Oz with my artifacts without them being seized at the Airport?

Congratulations malkingburg!

God is faithful.
It came like a wish , then like a dream and now a reality.
I got my grant today (573), lodged an application on the 6th of January and I was hit by the Golden mail at exactly 1.11pm today being the 21st of January 2015. Never mind it's a day worth remembering.

I do appreciate each and everyone that has taken time to share cogent information...your input here goes a long way in helping others.#Malkinburg you are the bomb.
Gold Coast here we come!

Wait for the outcome, you can also write your IELTS exam if you havent .

equlibrium:


lemi tell you my story
young engineering grad who could not find an engineering gig, since I was good with number, I took this finance analyst role when it came up and you know what I have learnt?
Me, my colleagues, we are all petrified of loosing this job! After 8years, you want more! More in earnings, more in responsibilities, more in life experiences, just more! But you can hardly get that here! Everyone says how lucky you are to even have the one you do.
So this colleague of mine, real smart dude thinks his certificates will sell him in Nigeria, he starts to antagonise the boss, thinks with his wealth of experience and masters degree, another job was just waiting to be had. Anyways, boss engineers his sack. Two/three years ago. No job. Wife's left him, landlord's left him, car's left him, where are the vacancies man!
Like you said man, loosing your job on these shores is a nightmare situation. Ofcos you can lose a job anywhere in the world, but the ability to find something that gives you something akin to the dignity you had before, it could be a pipe dream here man!

So I leave! Now! On my own terms!
If Nigeria gets better, all of us leaving now will return! And take your jobs from you! Cos we shall be better qualified, and better exposed! If it doesn't, well screw all of you that stayed men!
Australia isn't our home land, if somewhere else is better tomorrow, that is where we will go, that is what it means to have a worldview.
This world is your home, go where its happening and you will be appreciated.

I wish you all the best and the good things of life OZ has to offer.
Make us proud bro.
God will favour you.

equlibrium:
Ladies and gentlemen, I jet off 4th February to my base in Perth!
It hasn't been easy in Nigeria, life!
A country where nothing works, my prayer is for my kids to never have to go through what I went through to get where I am.
Anyways, thanks to all who started and kept this forum running, the dictator justwise(take a joke for once in your life man), my mortal enemy jenny(gone offline, still with us in spirit), bossladymo and all the others to numerous to mention.
its a long trip and an even longer life plan(2years msc at my age no b beans men), but having waited for sanity to come to Nigeria, and with no end to that wait in sight, I now leave that wait to more able people like that character that says husband and wife for your unborn children is one of the reasons to stay and wallow in the mediocrity my country has become.
I'm so fecking excited, this is probably the biggest life decision I will ever make, but its time to leave my comfort zone, do something new everyday of my life and actually live!
I will always come here to update all of you of the wonders my eyes will see from the moment I arrive and as I tour Australia,
Viva Oz...

iriferi:
lol... thunder of visa granted mail should strike you... say Amen... lwkm... na joke I dey ooo
