It's true there's something just not right on the online form. My Birth certificate and degree ( all in JPeg) is not uploading. When I click on the upload button.. 500 Internal Server Error comes up. Script error. All other uploads is fine. Anyone else having this same issue and anyone with clue on how to resolve this? Thanks, |

In life there's always risk to take for greater heights. Whatever reasons you have for studying abroad, take the plunge and get the experience of staying and studying abroad. Online won't give you the interpersonal skills, learning to work with people of a different background, broaden your horizon and views about life. It is a course of a life-time. 2 or 1 and half years of your life to do what you heart tells you is not a bad thing. Venture out there, I tell you even if you come back home. You will never see things the same and that's all that matters. You cannot plan for something that is too far ahead.. just ensure you create space for alternatives. If this happens what do i do? Live a simple life as a student and live withing your means while you are there. Make loads of friends and work hard. Months before your masters start putting in your application. If it works, you stay. If it doesn't marriage could be in the line or you hussle for anyother opportunity that come your way. If no way out, come home and try. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG IN TRYING, FAILURE CAN BE A GOOD THING. GIVE YOURSELF SOME YEARS TO FULFILL YOUR GOAL. if that don't work just dont waste your time and come home or try canada from there. Pray tho for wisdom. 2 Likes |

@ kbdrim: I beg to differ on your last statement Every human's decision, lifestyle and to some extent character is largely influenced on what goes on in his immediate environs.Why do most rich ( not wealthy) naija's who acts like gods in Nigeria behave normal abroad? I wouldn't necessarily blame people here in naija but I do agree that materialism and show off is too unhealthy and needs a serious check.Naija's need to stop this " i better pass my neighbor mentality" The day you start living for yourself not to impress others, make decisions which makes you happy not really on how you would be perceived by others, live your life owing no one but God with gratitude for life, parent and true friendship. That is when you start to really experience the joy of being a human. Of growing to a level of complete maturity.If on a particular day I feel like jumping on a bus or getting on keke marwa who gives a toss about what others would feel or say seeing me in one? I don't need your approval to live my life! I focus on increasing my moral value by being an honest and sincere individual.I don't need to acquire a jeep cos of some FAKE friends...then suffer to pay insurance or maintain the car! He feels comfortable with a bicycle.His gf am sure can't be bothered either. There is nothing wrong with riding one and its sheer naivety to say such worthy exercise is condescending! if that is what he feels happy with, how does that affect anyone?. It's people like him we need in this world. People who controls money and not allow money control them and even own their life, their happiness and their future. Such people are men of integrity who will never be influenced by greed and selfishness that we see all around in this evil world. Its true that only those who have an inferiority complex would want to show off their obscene amount of wealth in a lacklustre acquisition of things that are irrelevant ( an exception to this is allowed only for the royals and important dignitaries whose life is at stake) my 2 cents.. naijas should start being wealthy not being rich. 1 Like |

For those of you who have written the exams..Please share your rant on the process before the exams. I wrote mine last saturday. I was billed to write at 9.00am but ended up writing at 5.30pm. Is Nigeria really ready to help us? There were like zillion of us at the centre my head was spinning seeing so many people. The internet connection crashed and we had to queue under the very hot sun of ilorin. Many were told to go back and come back the next day. I mean, if they only needed about 1,750 people why would they allow us all to write the exam? We would have just gone through some test on the internet at our various place and then only those who passed called for the second stage at different exam center. This is just uncalled for. Now I have to start my abuja connections. ![]() |

Your question is not clear .. its an empty hall already which should be spacious without chairs and table. High ceilings creates space too. If talking from design perspective your hall could have 1, Chandeliers 2, Wall decor 3, Nude wall color like white or beige. 4, Stunning motif or prop to act as a centre point Hope this helps, Thanks, myweddingnigeria |

@No Qualms: Blue and yellow actually complements but then it depends on the shade of yellow and blue we talking about here. There are several ways you could pull this off. Your accents like white would also be good in this aspect. Some people actually get a color combo right but bringing out all wrong in several ways. A tint of yellow like creamy yellow or custard wouldn't look bad at all.But if yellow is not your preffered choice then ofcourse other colors still works well with it.like gold bronze,Carrot orange, emeraild green and blue will give you the peacock feel.. e.t.c. But if you want to go with pink then still that fine. In all, a creative event decorator and good wedding planner should be able to pull the look with no qualms.. ![]() Contact me if you need one. |

I am tired of being optimistic on what would change for the better in this country. I am not one to rubbish naija whilst abroad but whenever I hear some awful news like what happened to ibori, warnings on shopping websites about doing business with nigerians and all that lot.. man.. am always weak. I always feel like not going to work that day. What about when you have to travel to another country and they see your kpali, they start to give you unwanted grief.. why? Now in the country, cos there's actually no place like home but what works?? No light as far as I can remember from being a child ( everybody uses generator). No good roads- never has been, our educational system is a huge flop ( everybody is going private) No water ( everybody uses boreholes) access to good medical treatment nko? ( I fear to use drugs here, everybody is importing from abroad cos of powdered capsules) Telecommunication nko? Call a line and the automated voice would say its switched off meanwhile its on.. please what are they using tax money for? Nigerian officials are the most greediest leaders ever. They have used poverty to blind the minds of people so much so that everybody is acting greedy too cos its now survival of the fittest! That's why you cannot even be free to ping on the road ( lol) No security, no regulation, no control.. thats why somehow its a heaven's ground for looters. The Nigerian dream! Come here broke and before you know it you are riding a Bugatti ( one of the most expensive cars).. ( for real, naija men have this in their garage! I have seen it!) If there is anything in naija ( except nollywood and our talented artists doing it for themselves) anything that the government are doing that is indeed working for us, going on well, please let me know..Have they supported the musicians, what about the hardworking nigerian women. Just what are they doing ![]() Am surprised that the leaders don't feel shame when they go to represent us in conferences abroad with all these other leaders. Did you see the debate between obama and romney, I have never seen naija leaders debate intelligently like that? But why? If the leaders themselves are corrupt and using people for modern day slavery then what do you expect desperate citizens to do??Do you know most of them have their kids schooling abroad? they buy expensive flats for their 18 year old and the like.They take life insurance on their life abroad and receive treatment abroad. they are clueless of what the common man is going thru.. very heartless! We know corruption is rife in the world but please other leaders carry LIVE AND LET LIVE approach but naija leaders are LIVE AND LET ONLY ME LIVE ALONE! SMH! |

@ no Qualms: In addition to sassy's girl suggestion of the use of blue. The complementary color of blue is yellow and this color can be used as accents meaning whilst you can play around with the lighter and darker shades of blues, you can use the complementary color in specific areas to create a pop of the color scheme. Another color best used with blue is orange. A great tip is this: 1, When a cool color like blue is used, try using a warm color as accent- table props, favors, napkins, design in cake e.t.c 2, When a warm color like red, yellow or orange is the main color, subdue it with a cool complementary or split complementary color to tone it down. 3, Neutrals like greys, white, black, brown and beige is a great way to tone down warm colors. I looove the use of a color in different shades and then one other color to create an excitement to the eyes! A lot of people would be wearing geles for the trad and except you want to create a fanfare theme. I would avoid the experimental use of blocking colors. I would say leave it to the experts. The study of the color wheel is not as difficult as it may look. Sassy gal made a point when she says it would be nice to look for a wedding planner cos you have a million other things to think of. Alternatively, you can always follow up on this site: www.myweddingnigeria.com as it is a color blog that helps you understand and get your wedding colors. |

mygirrl: I really don't understand the joke. what's so funny? I pray we never experience a hurricane in Nigeria, without light plus the extreme weather condition those people were exposed to. The problem with us Nigerians is that we think we have seen a lot when compared to other countries because our country is bad. please let us continue to thank God that we have not experienced a hurricane or even a tornado in our country cos if what happened in america should come near Nigeria we all know it will be bloody. # word. It's easy for us to compare the consequences of bad government to the reality of a natural disaster; the closest we have ever experienced in Nigeria is flood, we are truly blessed we just have no idea. When natural disaster strikes, it doesn't matter whether you are rich, poor or even with any form of challenge. It wrecks lifes, rips families apart, wipes out a whole generation, leaves many in a traumatic state seeking therapy all of their life. Now, we might not have light for some days but we have a roof over our head, what we have built over the years is still to some extent safe with us, we have not lost everything like these people have. Something they never planned for, something they never saw coming, wake up one morning and everything is gone! Everything. Thank God Nigeria is strategically located where it is and we have no tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes and the likes. All we have is what WE CAN CONTROL and manage- Bad government. Someone said it starts from us being the best in whatever job we do. Let's all try and be honest with ourselves and wish the next person ONLY WHAT YOU WISH FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY! If you have friends, families or know anyone in the US that needs help, here is how to contribute in your own little way. please share this info: http://myweddingnigeria.com/6850/help-people-of-hurricane-sandy/ |

Ha! I thought it was only me mom that does that! I hate it with a passion.. she stopped now though! She realized you don't try that "talk" thing to people abroad especially when they've had a long day at work..( anyways I refused picking her calls and even warned her not to ever wake me up from my sleep just to talk unless it's absolutely necessary) 90% of the time, it's not. She wakes up and just want to gist then feigns seriousness by waking someone else. Highly unacceptable and unfair too! |

It usually is a problem cause your wedding is yours not hers.. The second comment is a nice advice. Thing is if you allow your in-law or even your parents to cough out 90% of the wedding fund then please expect this controlling-by force wedding planners wannabes to want to take charge whilst you look like lukmon. Best thing is to make sure they don't sponsor most part of the wedding, then you can have the confidence to say this is what you want cos the money is coming from your pocket.. |

I don't know who Toke is. But I can confidently tell you that Linda was a girl who respected herself back in UNILAG! She was a fighter a determined young woman who never did the so called " Aristo Runs" then. She had privately told me before ( we were all struggling models)as we sat in the back of my friends car she said.. "I want to make it in Nigeria, I want to be famous. I want to be a role model to others". Looking back, am smiling knowing her dreams came true.Am not saying Toke is any less of a chic or a role model...just stating what I know about Linda. Thanks, |

Everything really depends on your budget and how it is to be funded ( especially from family and close friends who help defray cost) You do not have to be rich to legalize your marriage. Naija are just big believers in show-off and trying to be the best. At the end of the day, you would have to come to terms with debts ( God Forbid!) You and your wife alone! This is what you do after proposal. 1, Tell Family and Friends of engagement 2, Have an idea of what you can budget for ( Parents would need to know this) 2, Ask Parents what they can do to help and what areas.( Make sure you already have the major things you need in mind..) 3, Ask friends what they can do to help ( singers, pianist, caterers) 4, Organize your bridal party and designate roles. 5, Designate roles to your siblings ( security, usher, dj e,t,c) 6, After all this, carry a thorough budget plan deducting the items already catered for. 7, Always have a 2nd option. I hope this helps, Anita 1 Like |

GEJ is only human.Whether crocodile tears or not, he showed some sympathy and sadness in this very sad event.I am not in support of any human government cause however how hard they try they are limited by their own imperfection much less the ones that work for them, however, saying that Nigeria is need of people who are ready to take us from where we are ( have been) to where we should be in the world's map for all the good reasons. You guys are quite funny tho... you cracked me up reading the comments! x |

The poster is not only being stupid, it is apparent that he is quite shallow. A Nigerian with a fake American accent dissing his own country. There are ways you go about expressing your views about naija without spewing exaggerated nonsense like you just did (No trees, the only green space is at the airport, what mutallab like you!!) where do you live in lagos? Apparently having nothing worthwhile to blog about?. Everybody knows the problem with naija, but when you sarcastically carry on like this, you make yourself an hypocrite for coming back again and again. Back to this place you hate soo much. There is no place like home. That's what make us UNIQUE. Someday, somehow, things will change gradually but surely. it might take long but we will get there. |

I can understand how hard it is not to love someone who you truly and genuinely have loved for 4 years. Some people made real sense . Debosky words should be given much thoughts to: 'It's a sad story. The nature of the cheating makes it almost unbearable, almost. You need to come to a decision within yourself on this matter - no one can advise you. I personally would not be able to countenance it. This wasn't 'ordinary' cheating. She spent the WEEKEND at this guy's house, while she was PREGNANT, lied to you about it, switched off her phone? This was deliberate, thought out and planned. It did not happen by accident. This isn't a matter of neglect, something is fundamentally wrong. I can understand meeting a guy, going to see him and things get out of hand. I can understand someone wooing you persistently and you fall. But to set out such an elaborate plan to cheat? I am sincerely worried, even if you have cheated (unless your cheating was equally elaborate and cunning) In this case, cheating is NOT cheating, at least to me - the level of premeditation is highly worrying. I personally would not be comfortable marrying such a person. Forgive by all means, but don't marry her - the baggage might kill the marriage.' Additionally, SAINT CHARLES AND sabak made some real good points too . I personally feel you need to think way back and remember whether she had acted phishy or funny at some point in your relationship cause the truth is if you truly love a guy, you wont cheat, if you cheat, its gonna be a one night thing and worse still she wont disrespect you ( mind you am just saying from my own point of view) Please be advised that she might be a serial cheat who only got caught . they are always ever sorry and always will be sorry ( both men and women) i rather remain single than stay with a a serial cheat. or with someone whose middle name is sorry, i wont do that again! In all , its not about you now as you know your true feelings for her . its about her. what was lacking in your relationship? you will need to both work this out . Ask her viewpoints questions to draw out her real feelings and thoughts. Don't be scared; this is your life and future. Don't force or intimidate her into saying that she loves and cares for you. Give the relationship some space and try other things to occupy your time and thoughtin the meantime. Get involved in sports or something. I AM NOT SAYING DO NOT FORGIVE HER am only saying this is the time you need to sit back and appraise the situation and your future happiness. Most importantly , pray for Gods guidance, to direct you and read the Bible to get practical solution to your problem. Remember, when you forgive, God is owing you one as well. It may take a while to trust again but trust is earned and if she truly is sorry( MAYBE ITS HER FIRST TIME) then she will work at earning YOUR trust back. I pray things work out fine and she is not just holding on to you cause of the security ( having invested in her time and effort for 4 years). I pray she is truly sorry cause she loves you not because she got caught. Give her another chance but be careful my brother . Use your sense and be patient. Thanks, |
