imperiouxx: No one is invulnerable to mistake. When mistake happens, you look for rectification but not just stand on the point that you've once made mistake. Well, moreso, she can claim it was a mistake from someone who filled the DS160 for her then but I'm sure with that little interview time.... none of such would be dug up.Yups! Changing obvious data and lying at an interview COULD make one ineligible. Wish them luck! Hope they tell us how it goes. |
imperiouxx: Agents don't make, they ruin. Just want to help a bit. She is still good. Life takes the grace of God to be sustained. When application she should say no kid. If question comes to her previous application showing she got a kid... That was once but not now, she lost him/her...... shikena!Oga Imperiouxx The power of the tongue is not to be messed with. It could only get worse if she verbally confirmed having a child at that time. Those agents mess people up! |
[quote author=I.Joan]OK! Thanks. ![]() I think my nigerian mentality followed me here. [/quote]imperiouxx: LOLHAHA!! ![]() |
imperiouxx: Yea! You've learned two things now. I told you, you are doing good in your Yoruba Language. We'll start talking in Yoruba whenever we've voice call...... *yin mu*Hisss ... **eye roll** Rolls head like Akata and *yin mu!* Lolz ![]() I'm pretty good with picking up a new language. |
[quote author=I.Joan]finito ![]() u are an ibo girl i didnt knw[/quote]LOOOL I'm not Igbo, but I've got some Igbo links in my family.So what Imperiouxx wrote translates to "finished", right? He's scared because I never forgot the 'yin mu' he taught me. ![]() |
imperiouxx: O ba pari!Hmn...meaning?? |
buzritchy: Plz house. I am thinking of applyn to a massage institute nd after mailing them to get admission info they replied me wt... International applctn,skul catologue nd 2oda forms via email. Am requird to pay 50dolarx as appl.fee nd the tuition fee ix around $27k....wch am to show bankdocument to prove if i cud pay it. And b4 they isue i20 am to pay $2k or $3000. Bt ma ? Is hw to get d secundry sch grade transcript ? nd my parents aint rich, cn i use relatives acct or friends acct ? to prove that i cud pay n r institute like masage institute recognixe or the embasy here wunt feel am luking 4excape route ?Training at a massage institute costs 27,000USD? If a visa agent is trying deceive to you, please rebuke him and he will flee. If you're doing all of this on your own, forget the institute and work towards a degree in Nigeria that you can afford. If you're really looking for an escape route, ....... Do NOT start the new year with financial regrets and disappointments. Please! |
Depends on how some parents raise their kids. A GOOD FOUNDATION is everything. A child that fears God will not partake in certain things no matter what circumstances they find themselves or give into peer pressure. Its not about location (abroad vs NIG), but the mindset of the child. My youngest siblings came over at 14 right after JS3. Even without my parents here (though we visit NIG quite often as well) we're still well grounded. I met children of a revered Nigerian pastor attending high school in the US without their parents. For a Pastor to send his kids abroad like that, he sure is confident in his kids. She's right about allowing one's kids to be looked after by someone else anyways. Can't compare to direct upbringing by one's immediate family ... Same experience you had in the UK could happen to a Nigerian child in Ghana or Nigeria. Glad she chose to be a role model to others.. |
Hmnn ... deep stuff! Nicely written. |

kpolli: Yes, I just remembered, be careful about some compaq n HP, they have mouse touch pad problems (Not all) Thanks my dear!I'm considering a Sony Vaio. I used to have one before and gave it out before the HP. I'll post the link of whatever laptop I purchase. ![]() |
kpolli: Well they always went when the schools were on hols and a semester never lasts up to 6 months, One did this even till he finished NYSC. Well my kind of friends........Lol ... Globe trotters, I guess. NYSC....These 4 letters terrify me. ...so Imperiouxx wants me to become a gamer?? I've still not purchased a laptop and I desperately need one right now. I like to read reviews before purchasing any product. The touchpad on the Toshiba may not be good for a lady's finger because its kinda rough. I'm still looking anyways ... |
freecharles: for the HP Pavillion, whenever you want to use it, always raise it up so that all the fans (including the ones beneath the computer) will function properly or better still you can purchase some kind of pad that you can at the four stands to raise it up and allow proper ventilation....... Thanks Charles! I wondered if there are users in this section since I only got help from people I know. I sincerely appreciate. |
idoo4love: thanks for ur concern dear.. Am a man..Lolz ... Imperiouxx ex-ed idoo4love out of here! Photography as a side job (hobby) ain't bad. You can pull some cash with that if you're good at it. Just don't settle though. Pursue the Computer Eng degree and do a masters too, if you can. I guess that you might end up working in the Prison taking mug shots / Walmart(photo studio) for a start I think you should round up your degree over here.Stop looking for cheap schools please. You have a green card so your tuition is affordable. Search google for 'affordable colleges in the Chicago area'. That's if you must school there... Nobody will be able to send you a specific list of cheap schools. It's not all about money sometimes, look for good reputation and strong alumni network with these schools. |
kpolli: Go thru that visa thread, I know of recent someone wrote a list of cheap skools.... You would see it... If pepper rest, I for tell u to shuttle the 2 countries, I have friends who did that while I was doing my undergradShuttle the two countries?? If she spends a month in the US, what happens to her classes in Nigeria? That's a long time to be out of school, don't you think? What kind of friends do you have, by the way.... ![]() |
Dot1: Thanx a lot. So ur advising i shudn't re-write GRE? But can i apply to schools dat requested for higher GRE scores dan i av? Any chance?Aiight ... I didn't ask you not to retake the GRE. Use your own discretion. Academic/professional LORs relevant to the program covers you. I think the reason the GRE is stressed on this thread is because some people jump in to grad school after completing an undergrad degree with no relevant work experience. Don't settle, you can still apply to certain schools even if you don't meet their GRE requirements provided you're strong in other areas. If you're not confident, prep harder and retake the test. It's you against the current pool of applicants. @Alingo4life: Mamacita went to EducationUSA in Lagos. They were not useful to us, but she might explain better whenever she 'lands' here. Whatever the school instructs, follow... |
Mercy Johnson .....hands down! |
idoo4love: thanks for d advice.. Am studying computer engineering . As for my ND , I studied mechanical engineering. I will buy my tickect next month by God's grace.. Chicago is my POE .. Hws life there..I heard several stories abt Chicago.. U're in which state. ? And he many years can it take Mr to complete my bsc since am not starting from the scratch .. ThanksYou won't start all over, but you can start in your 3rd year (not bad) since you're not an Intl Student. Make sure you get at least 6 copies of your transcript/ND before coming over. You'll need it. You should start applying to schools now. Wish you luck! |
Dot1: Hello All.Grad school admission selection is a holistic review process - GPA, LOR, SOP, test scores and the current applicant pool (depends on how competitive the applicant pool is). High/Low GRE score is not a determinant of one's admissibility. With Low GRE scores, sharpen your LOR and SOP, send out emails and give your SOP to someone to peer-review for cogency and grammar. I think LOR is a big deal, IMO. |
idoo4love: ahwww...am so sorry abt dat... I can wait to finish here...jst wanna get my transcript like that..and d visa will expire in six months if I don't show up in d states..?It depends on what you'd like to major in. Will you graduate within 6 months? If not, just request your transcript in NIG and transfer credits when you get here. You must use that visa the God has blessed you with. Don't let it expire in your hands or you'll never forgive yourself. Real talk! What's your major? |
idoo4love: Pls I have my ND transcript with me....am also in 400level here in Nigeria but will be coming to the states next month... What are my chances of furthering my education in usa..thanks and God bless..Bro or Sis, You just derailed my personal thread oh! Anyways, seems like you're a lotto winner, right? Will you graduate before coming over or you'd like to come with 'incomplete transcript'? |
idoo4love: hello house .. Pls I have my ND transcript with me.... What are my chances of furthering my education in usa..thanks and God bless..I doubt that you can attend college in the US on a B1/B2 visa. Apply for the F1. Besides, what degree are you looking to get? |
kpolli: Sef if they touch u, roll and try to get injured.... If possible get it on tape... You won't need assistantship again, the money u go collect go sustain u LMBO! Wow Kpolli. You forgot to tell him NOT to receive treatment/pills like Imperiouxx did. Loool. Think he's still paying on that! ![]() I tell everyone the same thing especially when in an accident. Hold your neck and scream like you're in pain, but you must request your personal doctor - Naija doctor - share payment in half! ![]() |
Oh my God! You guys have made it worse oh!! ![]() I'm not a gamer. This is all I do (Internet, watch movies, Microsoft Project, Excel, iTunes - I like loud music, Skype - great webcam needed and that's it). |
kpolli: Na wa... AMD is better for graphics so what is this sales agent talking about? Well I have used AMDs thru out, just using my first intel chip.... And my former laptops are still alive till date....Na wa oh! She said that AMD's overheat and are not for professional use unlike intel. I think I may get a DELL laptop because they're affordable. Imperiouxx, please explain. Sorry! Did you recommend the laptops listed above or you're telling me to avoid them? Is it the yoga that's you think is not nice or the Toshiba? Thanks. |
kpolli: Yes oh na why I can't toast them hereWhy though? They're Nigerians like you only that they're born here. If you settle in America, your kids will be like that too. Different attitude, accent with American thinking styles. ![]() |
imperiouxx: Just like "Goddamnit! just shout the fucck up, I don't give a fucck about what is wrong with your fucck decision. If you don't like the room, get your motherfucck a ss out of the house or you go to hell or you kiss my royal a ss"Loool @ American English. What I like is that its informal with lots of contractions (lazy man's speech) even at a workplace. "How you doin?" may be incorrect to someone used to British English, but it works in all settings in America. Its strange to ask someone, "How do you do?" Did you watch Piers Morgan and Alex Jones (Gun control guy) on CNN? The guy said something kinda like, "Get yo British a$$ outta here!" on national TV. Then started mimicking Pier's British accent. hehehehe Quite unbelievably stup!d! Anfnie (Anthony - That's how your name is pronounced), be a good 'boy'. No punches, jabs or uppercuts! |
kpolli: Samsung (to me) is a bigger brand name so I naturally would say them but Lenovo (IBM) is solely into computers so would go for them instead but Dell also has this kinda product so they would def be my first choice.Dell? Really?? Lemme check online right now. I use HP Pavilion, but it started overheating real bad. I've changed the fan twice and its still giving problems. Now it shuts off abruptly. Don't want to spend money on this laptop so I'm desperately shopping for a new one. How about Toshiba - Here's the link for the Satelite 15.6 for $249. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Toshiba+-+Satellite+15.6%26%2334%3B+Laptop+-+4GB+Memory+-+320GB+Hard+Drive+-+Satin+Black/7334096.p?id=1218840473672&skuId=7334096 The sales agent at Bestbuy told me to stay away from AMD and that should get intel i3, i5 or i7. |
kpolli: Break how? Depends on how u handle itPlease on youtube, you'll see how it flips backwards. I'm worried that if I always flip it backwards, the hinges may break. Would you prefer Lenovo to Samsung? Thanks. |
Hi Techies ![]() Does anyone have any experience with the new Lenovo ultrabook yoga? I'm in dire need of a new laptop and came across this 13" laptop that flips into a tablet as well. I think its handy for Church as a tablet and school work as well. Are they any cons to purchasing a tablet/laptop in one. Will it easily break? I also came across this Toshiba satelite laptop on sale for $249 at Bestbuy (Model: C655-S5082), but the sales rep discouraged me because of its low AMD whatever...i donno a lot about computers. Is Lenovo a good product?
|
OjaP:Sure about that? ![]() What part of TX are you visiting? Work-related stuff or you coming to party?? ![]() |
kpolli: Is there a set if Nigerians that like it?Of course there are! Helllloo?? ![]() LSU is packed with akata-rized Nigerians, right? Or maybe first-generation Nigerian-Americans? SOS! Mamacita is serious about her accent. I heard her and my brother discussing - every T is a D not an R. Haha! I was like WTH ![]() |

The power of the tongue is not to be messed with.
I think you should round up your degree over here.
