The evil called "Junior Waec"

Saw this on facebook and felt it's worth sharing here.. In JSS3; Our educational curriculum mandates that an examination be taken. This said exam is aimed at segregating the class into:- Sciences, Commercials and Arts; as the students transit to Senior Secondary School level. Those that score well above average are moved to sciences. The school management naturally assumes this category to be the most intelligent of the bunch and they surreptitiously bestow upon them the responsibility to become the future Medical doctors and Engineers. Those whose scores were average are moved to commercials because they are terms as those whose brains lack the capacity to comprehend Physics, Chemistry and Biology. They are better of going into the world of business. And those whose scores are below average are moved to Arts. These ones are characterised as dullards and olodo rabbatas. This category of students are termed as future Politicians. Ladies and gentlemen; This is the fundamental ...

• We all have that one girl/guy that we can’t get and he/she has no idea you like him/her. • When you are with the person you love most, every pain you have and every sadness you feel, fades away instantly. • Most people are so lazy to LOVE, all the commitments and devotions involved is too much of a work. • The only thing man lacks when it comes to women is: Patience. The only thing woman lacks when it comes to men is: Endurance. • Dating an awkward person is less stressful. You laugh more and have more fun which improves quality of life and overall health. • Keep smiling. You never know who is falling in love with it. • Sometimes the best way to appreciate something is to be without it for a while. • Eating your food slowly will help you lose weight, enjoy your food, reduce stress, and lead to better digestion. • Some people aren't actually anti social, they're just very selective when it comes to the people they associate with. • While you're busy looking for t...

We All have a Single Lifetime to Spend

Your fears will want you to live it less; Your critics will want you to stop trying as they are committed to hunting every of your trial and blowing up any fault they find; Your backgrounds may want your back to remain on the ground; Your current bank balance may want to deter you; Your hurts may try to hold you back; Just remember you have a SINGLE LIFETIME TO SPEND. Live it to the best of your abilities. Beat the odds and fail while trying, it is a prove that you are making progress. There may be a thousands reasons why you shouldn't try, but when you find that one reason you should, RUN with it. A reminder from God's Word - Philippians chapter Four – 13 – I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.] This is a call to a fulfilled life,...

How to make Big Money from Small Businesses

I know a guy that sells roasted chicken at one of the female hostels in Unilag. The cheapest Roasted Chicken he sells is 1k and to be very modest, he sells at least 5 per day. We all know that he does more because the cars that come to the hostel are way more than 5 per day and those girls never let most "droppers" leave without dragging them close to his table for a slice. Some even do take away to their friends and roommates since it's actually "something lite". Don't ask me how I got to know this biko, I have headache. I love data because they don't know how to tell lies. Now keep let's keep our stat at 5 roasted chicken a day at 1000 naira per Chicken, that should give you about 35,000 per week. In a month, that is 140,000 naira revenue. Now, that's six figure in case you have forgotten how they calculate it! This boy sells under a Tree, so his overhead cost is low. He could even own a Poultry self, who knows. That also reduces supply c...

Eggshells (Episode 2)

Stanley could not believe that he was delayed at the banking hall for close to an hour before he was asked to enter the office of the Customer Service Manager. Jessica who had waited behind in her car kept on sending him text messages asking him if he was done yet. He pitied her. The poor woman left her own business to attend to his own troubles. He, for once in his life, thought she would make a good wife. However, he didn't love her. Or maybe he did, but he had not realized yet. "You can go in now Sir", came the voice of one of the cashiers at the counter. "Thank you for taking my sweet time". Stanley grinned and walked straight to the door he had been directed to. He was too preoccupied with his fury to knock at the door. He got in and slammed the door behind him. The woman seated at the desk in the cozy and fully air-conditioned office looked smart in her black and white suit. She had a pair of glasses on and she gave off an impression of control and co...

A Perfect marriage

A Perfect marriage is just two imperfect people who refuse to give up on each other. No relationship is a sunshine, but two people can share one umbrella and survive the storm together. For a marriage to be successful, you have to fall in Love everyday and always with the same person because when trust is broken, promises are questionable. Love can be ruined and hearts are broken but there must be an end to it all because forgiveness is not a feeling but it's a choice. Nwandu Obinna

The 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup is just less than 48 hours to be done with. It's been an interesting week with the two interesting semi final games played on Wednesday, June 28, and Thursday, June 29. After Portugal qualified as Group winners of Group A, they booked a semi final encounter with Chile, runners up of Group B, on Wednesday. It was the most interesting game of the cup so far, with the winner decided by penalties. Claudio Bravo, the Manchester City and Chilean goalkeeper and captain turned hero as he saved all three penalties, taken by Ricardo Quaresma, João Moutinho and Nani, while Chile scored all three of theirs. The other encounter between Group B winners, Germany and Group A runners up, Mexico ended in a convincing win for Germany as they put four goals past Ochoa, the Mexican goalkeeper while Mexico could only reply with a goal, though a stunning and long distance one by Marco Fabian, from a free kick. Germany and Chile both booked a first Confederation...

Rags (2012)

So I picked this movie as the first I'll write about on this label. I've watched lot of movies, deleted some, but this is one of those I find it difficult to delete. I just have to delete some others to create space for some more movies I want to watch.. This is one of the movies I'll recommend if you are looking for one to give you some motivation. Rags is a musical film, starring a number of characters, two of which are most outstanding. Charlie Prince (Max Schneider) and Kadee Worth (Keke Palmer) both got musical talents, but of different financial backgrounds. Photo Credit: Wikipedia Charlie, who had lost his mum and was from the lower financial background, had great passion for his talent and always believed he will be someone great one day. He kept up his faith, even with his discouraging step dad and step brothers. Anyway, he got that little family (Diego and Martha) which kinda filled a gap and gave him some inspiration. He had his fears, sometimes doubte...
