johnpoko: You should be able to charge your phone in the plane, as most wide-body jets have outlets for plugging-in electronic devices. Not sure if you’d get WiFi; it depends on each individual airline. 4 Likes |

Holocene:Are there no damsel of a respectable character in the states.? I asked this because, often times, ladies pretend to love and get their way, only to change their colours thereafter.

stonemasonn: I strongly disagree Most single mothers i have seen are toxic. Any misstep by you, they will ruin you forever!!! They will take out their frustration on you. If you are a single guy (no kids, never been married), look elsewhere, aim "higher". If at all, you fall in love, choose someone that isn't compromising on you because she made bad decisions in her life A lot of them just want you to play "Daddy" to another man (or men)'s kids. They hardly love you bro. 32 Likes 5 Shares |

At burger king, the issue I had when I started the job was communication. At this job, drama. Lemme explain. If you notice, if you've paid close attention to my posts, I always tried to pick people's brains, to understand what makes them tick, to understand the mindset of the people I'd be working with, the mindset of Americans. In trying to do that, I try to strike up conversations with different people, dancing around different topics trying to get you to speak. In the first few weeks I started this job, I noticed this is a female dominated field and most of the persons whose brains I tried to pick were ladies. In no time, news had started flying around that the new guy is a flirt, he's always talking to everybody. It turns out these ladies mistook my questions and conversations for something else, they actually thought I was trying to hook up with them. Each day I come to work, I'd hear one new gist about me and what I supposedly did. I wouldn't bore you guys with the sad tales of how these people think cos most of them are way too shallow to delve into deep conversations with. They are more content with running their mouths about celebrity news and who-is-fvcking-who at the job. The few times I've tried to bring politics or current affairs or something other than tv shows and drama and superficial stuff, I get a blank stare or something close to it. With time, I minimized my conversations to strictly work related stuff and started keeping to myself. My "brain-picking" project has been put on hold for now. 28 Likes 2 Shares |

I've got some great news, my transcript has been evaluated, I applied to Chicago state university to study BSN nursing and got accepted. I paid the "acceptance fee" of $50 yesterday and I'm revving my engines, ready to go! Ready to explore a whole new world within the 4 walls of the university. 45 Likes

Remember when I told you guys about the unavoidability of bills and fines, here's some gist There's something we call Ipass, it's a device you put on your car dashboard which enables you to automatically pay your toll fees without stopping your car on the expressway. For each time you pass a toll booth, it's recorded on their system, then at the end of the month, the fee is deducted from your bank account. My mum has one in her car but didn't know it was faulty. So, she had been driving past the toll booths without paying the fees, some days back, we recieved this in the mail Observe the toll fees itself, and the penalties attached 11 Likes 1 Share

Mumsy bin dey vex major and said she wouldn't pay it. We ended up giving them a call, when they found out the issue was from their end, they canceled all the fees. ALL! At this point, I've worked at the new job for quit3 sometime now and I'm beginning to understand my co-workers, beginning to gravitate towards those who want to do something with their lives and stay away from those whose sole aim in life is to talk about other people. The good thing about this place is nigerians full this facility, so they are always looking out for me 28 Likes 2 Shares |
