I was listening to Minister Louis Farakhan yesterday...he had me rolling...he basically was saying howAmerica's time is up...he said colleges invite young people to go to school, young people eventually get into debt because of loans and then they graduate with degrees that they can't even use.That is just fraud. The colleges know this before hand that students will go to their school and become engulfed in debt that they will be paying until they die.
People often get the idea that because you go to school/graduate in the US, that you will get a job. No one is guaranteed anything. There are people who are engineers who work in nursing homes, there are poltical science majors working in inner city schools. The recession isnt an excuse. He said America is run on pills: you want to go to sleep? take a pill. You want to wake up? take a pill? You want to eat ? take a pill. You have indigestion? take a pill. Cant walk right? take a pill . You have pain? take a pill.....it was just too hilarious and true at the same time. He was basically exposing the country for what it is.
He was also interviewed by Mike Wallace and the topic about Nigeria came up ( about how corrupt it was) and Louis Farrakhan just burried Wallace with his mouth sha...he said how can America talk about being corrupt when its shed the blood of so many including Native Americans and the Koreans when they dropped nuclear bombs...when Wallace asked him if he can think of another nation as corrupt as Nigeria he said " yea I'm living in one"

The speech/interviews were old but I thought I'd share :)
My brother is finally learning pidgin...sometimes he sounds so bad that I just have to laugh...his american accent mixed with pidgin is something else like LWKMD!!! I know I might sound funny to people who grew up speaking it but lmao his own is on a kentro level like damn...He's learning it from all the naija kids in his school..those ones sef...but I like that hes trying to learn it, me I'm already a master at it...I know its not proper english n my cousins say girls shouldnt speak pidgin but its the only thing I can speak..apart from my own language which I'm learning small small... I dont know if its because we are nigerian -american but it cant rly be an excuse for not knowing/learning our language. It never should be, seeing as we grew up with our family friends(there are 5 boys and right down to the last born whos 6 yrs old speaks igbo) who are fluent in igbo...and they were born in the states...so whats my parents excuse...hmmm i forgive them sha; i can go and learn on my own...hmm and blogsville ppl make una get ready oo! as in u all will be giving me online lessons...any language wey una wan teach me oo,i go learn. I wish I went to a college that offers igbo or yoruba classes... I know Upenn does and so does Univ. of Texas...ah well.
Its finally a New Year, so i gotta stop worrying about things I really cant change..n focus on ones that I can. I'm really trying to make changes in every aspect of my life. I know everyone is always vowing to lose weight and what not but i'm really trying to improve myself from the inside first and the religious aspect of my life especially. I want to be content in this new year/decade.
I just picked up a new book at barnes and noble:
A man worth waiting for, how to avoid a bozo by Jackie Kendall. Its really insightful. Its a good christian book,and I rcmend it especially to single women...my next read has definately got to be: The thing around your neck by Chimamanda Adichie, I been hearing some good things about the book... they dont have it over here...(oyinbos for here no dey like betta thing jare..)
