  "You are too skinny to be exercising."     This must be the funniest statement everrr! Whoever came up with such idea? I have heard it so much in the past, from a lot of people that I

As i was watching this interview a thought came to my head..It's funny how Africa is grouped  as one country, yet these two Africans ( Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Trevor Noah) have different stories to tell about their Africa. In Chimamanda's words," ...coming [to America] and discovering that i am black, in some ways Trevor and i have such different experiences because we grew up in just different parts of Africa...."                         Not just in Africa, but here in America. Everyone has a different story of their America or what it means to live and be American. An Asian-American will tell you a totally different story from an African- American or White-American. A person living in California will experience things differently from someone living in North Carolina. Basically, I think that's the way Life is.  These versatalities in our experiences are what makes life interesting. You call someone your sister, brother, or best friend doesn&#

      Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a lifelong disorder in which the patient's body cannot regulate the levels of glucose in the blood. There are two types of diabetes mellitus, type 1 and type 2.   Type 2, sometimes called adult-onset or non-insulin-dependent diabetes, is the more common type of Diabetes Mellitus.   It usually develops relatively slowly (McCance, Huether Brashers & Rote, 2010).   This paper will solely focus on Diabetes Mellitus type 2, its causes, symptoms, prognosis, treatments etc.      Type 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance and a decrease in insulin secretion.  The causes of type 2 diabetes mellitus are unclear; however, there seem to be both complex hereditary (genetic factors passed on in families) and environmental factors involved (McCance, Huether Brashers & Rote, 2010) .  It is also more common in blacks, Hispanics, Native Americans, and women, especially women with a history of gestational diabetes.  Genetics and environmental f

             Life consists of endless events that push us towards what we will be, or what we have become.   Oftentimes, people always say "that's life for you" or "Life isn't fair". What do these really mean? Truly.           What then is life? I believe Life is any situation you encounter in your lifetime. Be it losing a loved one, going for countless interviews and no job, being deserted by friends when you need them most, failing and failing until you succeed. All these events or situations either makes you better or worst depending on how you view and handle them.           Different people experience different situations in their lifetimes, and sometimes we experience similar things with people. These similarities are what brings us closer to people and in some cases, the differences in our experiences attract us together because it shocks us that someone will go through something that you couldn't have imagined, ever in your life!

California. The joy I feel right now, knows no bound. I did every single thing I planned on doing. I went for an Afrobeat concert last Friday in LA, I spring-cleaned my closet, I took loads of pictures at a place I have never been before, I got my individual braids; finally! ...and then i got all my home works  out of the freaking way! Life is so freaking coooool! SMH.. If only. Too bad that all happened in an alternative universe, where every single thing you set out to do actually pulls through with no hiccups. Lord! how I wish I could get my shitty one week back!!!!!

The movie's theme explores "humanity and rules". It explains how human beings responds when given a set of rules. These rules are laid out to govern people's actions. The acceptance and non-acceptance of these rules come with responsibilities and making choices.    Metaphorically, the title "The Cider House Rules" implies "the rules of the society". The cider house deals with processing of apples into Apple cider. Thematically, this refers to nurturing and caring for children to be fit for the society. As seen when Mr. Rose

   As I pondered on what the future held for my dear country Nigeria, curiosity hit me. "what is the original meaning of the phrase 'Third world country'?". Then I checked; dictionary.com defined the phrase as an underdeveloped country with widespread poverty.  I just asked myself,  when are we ever going to get out of that label "third world country"? when are we ever going to reach our full potential? These and many more questions that I  ask myself almost on a daily basis, yet with no tangible answer. Years and years have gone by, yet no change. Nigerian situation, it's like that of the people of Israelites before they crossed the blue sea.  The obstacle being the blue sea. Now the only
