Stop ke? I dey enjoy your explanation! How does OFDMA work and how is it different from HSPA+? grin

Lol. You can shift it to the telecommunications professionals zone thread on the career section, make we nor go derail this thread... wink

HSPA+ is same as 3G, just advanced with few features so its referred to as 3.75G, OFDMA allocates time, freq and resources in sync.

i once dreamt of becoming a footballer, few years later it changed, then i started craving for music. It got to a point, i decided i wasn't going to pursue the latter anymore and decided i'ld rather focus on becoming an artist (Sketches, drawings, paintings, etc). A more matured me started loving finance, so i changed from pursuing a career in artistry to studying accounting After my university, i came to realise art is my thing so i learnt photography.

I have this feeling i'll crave for something else after photography.

A Mechanical engineer. I have achieved that eight years ago. But without a tangible practicing venture due to the "Nigerian factor". I am now into my second passion which is imparting knowledge to the younger generation of "dreamers".

Hahah! Imagine how our dreams usually flies with time , When I was a kid, I had always wished to be an Engineer who will work with multinational companies, cos of the flair I have for mathematics and some other core arithmetic subjects. Those dreams were shattered away when I grew and find out the wherewithal was far-reaching to pursue my dreams.

Hmmmn! I guess there's problem somewhere. U should look inward and stick to the one u have passion for, the one that makes u happy the most. Dnt be jack of all trades, dont look @ d level of economic returns each of them will fetch. The lord will see u thru.

I always wanted to be a telecommunications engineer. Always fascinated about how a device in Nigeria with communicate with another in France, I just wanted to know what's up.

Lost a year in the uni, pursued and pursued..... Wasn't so brilliant but very intelligent....fast forward to today. E don happened.

I have conquered in my very short career time, I can explain how this devices do connect, even in depts that are not mine. I am actually fully involved.

There was a time every call drop, no internet, poor service for one of the top operators in northern Nigeria on 3G was my issue to solve, in the same little time, i transfered my skills outside Nigeria to consult independently..... Boom! my childhood dream was a hit back to back....lol. If you believe and work at it putting God first, you can do it too.

Now my first son will surely have no choice than to follow this line, did I mention I got mine from my dad, so it must be passed on.
No, let ur son follow his heart.

Listening to a rhythm 97.radio programme,, kids were being interviewed and it came to this part, what do u want to be when u grow up? The four of them their answers,..
1. lawyer (defend my cun3ri)
2. doctor (help people)
3. soldier (defend the DIGNITY of my cun3ri, cudnt stop loling)
4. banker..... Cnt remember the reason


Then I remembered mine. A young Black boy with dreams of wanting to find the cure of Aids, nt until my Maths teacher made me h8 Maths so bad that i dropped without a 2nd thought, then I asked my brother, he blurted out 'banker' i cudnt stop laughing when I remembered that my bros and anything arithmetrics were enemies...

So people, what were those glorified childhood dreams of yours and how many actually made them happily ever after.



It has always being my dream to be a Lawyer as well as get to the pick of this profession. To the Glory of God, I made it, as a matter of fact, I'm typing this message from the Courtroom. And I believe that God is not done with me yet. please don't give up on ur dreams and don't stop dreaming.
