Its just the way i see it

 

Thanks for checking in. This is a space I created for myself to write about different topics that I find interesting. Sometimes, a Facebook post or Tweet may not be enough to express the totality of one’s thoughts, and as much as life’s busy schedule does not permit me to frequently air my opinions on social media, I have put up this space for sharing, teaching, venting, and generally saying it the way I see it. I do not like to take stances on sensitive topics and most of the topics I choose to write about may just be an attempt to explain occurrences from my own perspective. I currently live in the United States so I know that there must be some kind of amendment that gives me the right to say that I choose NOT to identify with any political group, religious group, hate group, and any other group that solely promotes division. What the world needs now is LOVE. By the way, if you do come across the amendment that gives me the right NOT to identify with anything, please send me a copy.

Why Do Non-American Soccer Fans Think American Football Is So Complicated

One of the main reasons that  immigrants  in  A merica  find it difficult to watch American football  is  that the rules are not as simple as their regular soccer that most of the ones who have lived in Africa or other Spanish nations may be  familiar with.  Before migrating to America, I was mainly used to watching soccer.    In Nigeria, soccer was quite a popular sport  and  had a considerable following, especially the English Premier League.  Define loyalty that existed in Nigeria was very strong; in some  cases,  you would see many fans showing their commitment to  En glish clubs while others would show their loyalty  2  Spanish or Italian clubs . I vividly remember this particular year, when Arsenal Football Club and Barcelona qualified for the Champions League final. In the city of Lagos , it was known that there was a lot of fighting between fans, and this was not just your regular...

The Most Educated Immigrant Group In the United States: But The Questions On Thier President's Education

  After the election in Nigeria last year and all that came with it, I think it will be easy to conclude that no matter how much anyone wants to argue, all elections will leave a bad taste in someone's mouth. There will be those who will be happy about the results, and there will be those who will be livid and bitter until the next election cycle comes around. Having moved to America in the time of Trump and taking a front row seat to palpable anger and the division that came with Trump's regime, I realized that there never will come a time when the outcome of any election will keep everybody satisfied. There will always be winners and losers, new friendships will be made and existing friendships will be broken.  Living in America, it takes a while to realize that you represent the country that you come from. If you speak, and your voice does not have the traditional sounding American voice (if that is a thing) then the chances are high that someone will ask you where you are ...

The Culture Of Having Cash Is difficult to shake Off For The Immigrant, But Credit is King In America

  If you have been used to living a lifestyle where whatever you needed, you would have to pay for it from the cash in your pocket; there is a tendency to feel like a lack of money will spell big trouble. When I lived in Nigeria, I had read many financial books, but one of the things that made most of these books challenging to relate with was when they would describe how to leverage credit. Some readers had valuable tips on positioning yourself for wealth, like Robert Kiyosaki's  The Cashflow Quadrant . Still, others would explain a complicated credit system that seems foreign to the average person living in Nigeria who must have the cash available if they must own anything.   The Nigerian banking system is far from what is obtainable in the US, where one could quickly request a credit card, and it will be speedily available to you based on trust. You are only required to maintain what is known as a  credit score , and as long as you can keep a good credit scor...
