Have You Ever Dated Your Neighbor? And How Did That Go
~1.7 mins read
Hello folks, I saw a hilarious question online which I thought to share it here and know if we had experienced it before, the question was have you dated your neighbor before?.

We know that in most places In Africa today, some of our parents see it as a crime to fall in love with our neighbors or even people close to us, but we took our time to hear from people who have had similar experiences, this was what we got, enjoy.

When we interviewed David this was what he said: "We kinda grew up together. Always fighting till we got to SS3 and as strange it could be, I started having feelings for her the day she defended me on the street(that babe get mouth) I approached her with love letter and she accepted. We dated for like 9months without anyone suspecting or knowing. It ended in tears cos the elder brother who was dating my aunt(staying with us) discovered! That guy no get joy".

Emeka also said: " it was very funny thing to do, I have tried it once She was  always happy when ever am having issues with my girlfriend. to be honest with you guys, No body in the compound Know we are dating because she said I should not tell anyone about our relationship omo!!!! See enjoyment".

Angela didn't go into full details about her relationship with one of her neighbor but this was what she said "Well it will be a year next month,He is one of the nicest guy I have ever met. He is amazing. Just that it's childhood and neighbour's love about to turn into marriage love."

Anthony also told us his experience too "My wife was my neighbor back in school. I cherished her behavior, she was amazing and here we are as husband and wife".

Well the last but not the least this was 

Mercy's own  experience of dating her neighbor "It was the best relationship I ever had... no one knew we were together at first so we snuck around going to movies and shows, we had a few ups and downs but because we were living so close and saw each other every day we always worked them out and now 7 years later here we are".

TEN COMMON HEALTH ISSUES IN ELDERS
~2.3 mins read
Getting older can seem daunting­—greying hair, wrinkles, forgetting where you parked the car. All jokes aside, aging can bring about unique health issues. With seniors accounting for 12 percent of the world’s population­–and rapidly increasing to over 22 percent by 2050–it’s important to understand the challenges faced by people as they age, and recognize that there are preventive measures that can place yourself (or a loved one) on a path to healthy aging.
1.
Chronic health conditions
       According to the National Council on Aging, about 92 percent of seniors have at least one chronic disease and 77 percent have at least two. Heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes are among the most common and costly chronic health conditions causing two-thirds of deaths each year. The National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion recommends meeting with a physician for an annual checkup, maintaining a healthy diet and keeping an exercise routine to help manage or prevent chronic diseases. Obesity is a growing problem among older adults and engaging in these lifestyle behaviors can help reduce obesity and associated chronic conditions.
 
Let's stop here for now

🎀The commissioner Son💕

                      And I🎀{why me!}

Semi-final

Unknown POV📍📍

"What is going on here?"

They all discharge from the hugs including jane. Yes Daniella has forgiven her.

They all turn around to see Daniella's dad and mum glaring at them through the window. They looked shocked and scared with that kind of face so they quickly took their face away from them but landed on the second window when Daniella brothers were glaring hard at them.

What!
Those faces!

They all exchange looks and they scream at once and take to their feets running inside.

They run inside laughing seriously.

By the time they got inside the sitting room Daniella's dad and mum with her brothers were going to sit down so Daniella and her friends stood accordingly like students who were about to be punished.

Daniell dad cleared his throat, staring deeply at the ladies and gentlemen in front of him.

But trust Nigeria parents…

"Daniella what is this?"Her dad glaring at Lawrence, making him scared to death.

Everyone traced Daniella's father 's eyes and it landed on Lawrence and daniella interwed their hand.

Daniella quickly realized that and immediately redrew her hand from him.

"Who are they?"her dad asked, now facing them all.

Daniella signed as no words were coming to her head.

Will she say they are her friend, lover and enemies.. Gosh..

"I asked a question!
Who are them?"

"Umm..Um..they...Ummmm.." Daniella stammer fearfully.

"I know them!"mum Daniella said standing up, suddenly retiring her wrapper.

"M..mum!"Daniella called with a pleading face. She knew her mum had met them on video call and did not have a good encounter with them, especially that crazy fellow called Kelly!

"Don't mum me!"her mum shut her up glaring at her before returning her face back to status in front of her."you are her friends."she said pointing at james and john and nodded quickly.

"You are the white witch telling your grandma 'was sup'?" She asked glaring at Kelly who poured out her mouth innocently.

Her mum eyes her before facing Jane who has been behaving cool like water that has been stored inside the fridge for long.

"I guess you are the Daughter of the almighty dollar that ruins my daughter's life over there?

"Mum stop it please!"daniella said quickly because she has started feeling sad already.

"I said shut up!"she yelled angry at her and return her face back to jane."You frustrated her there and still has the liver to come to her us,have you not scared?"my mum asked."i can ask the witch of our country to deal with you right now!"

"Yes!
Daniella's grandmother was a witch before she died!"Kelly added to it immediately making them to grap.

Daniella and they rest stare at each other. Yes Kelly has really put them in a hot fire!

But surprisingly Daniella mum only glared hard at her and returned her face back to Jane again.

Daniella's mum smiled genuinely at her, making the rest confused.

" But no matter what your mum is still the reason we are alive today because when the devil commissioner wanted to waste us just a word from her we were released. 
So no matter her bad intention from the beginning to the end that good dead will still stand and remain forever.
I don't know about anything that happened but I couldn't predict from the look of things you have repeated and you are welcome into the family."Danielle said at the end making everyone smile and amazed at what the great woman has said.

The triplet with Kelly and Jane all wish they could have a parent as understanding and full of wisdom and care like their friend and love own but the happy is that they all got a mum now yes from today enhance forth Daniella mum will be their mum.

"Wow thank you very much ma and…."they all chorus but Daniella mum shuts them up instantly.

"You are all mannerless!"she insulted."This is a Nigeria home and you haven't greeted anyone since you came in, even the elder here!"she said, going to take her seat.

And immediately the triplet gets the message because they are also from Nigeria they prostrated instantly while Kelly and Jane remain standing staring at the triplet confusedly.
 
Daniella quickly walks toward them and whispers into her ears that they should kneel down and greet them.

And they nod in understanding and started walking forward towards where they sat.

James and John stare at each pitifully already knowing that it was a mistake asking them to greet.

The two got to Daniella's parents front and knees down and suddenly stretched out their hands saying."was sup mama and papa?"

The triplet stood up instantly and started walking out of the sitting room and Daniella joined them.

They go out of the sitting room leaving Kelly and Jane to carry her cross alone.

             One week later.
Daniella POV📍📍

They all explain everything that occurs within those Two month to me and my family.

I shed tears to see God bless me with wonderful people who care and love me.

They fought for me even to the deadline. They fought the battle and won.

We spend one more week with my family and we have a lovely time together.

I took them to many places which were usually fun to me and trust me they really enjoy everything.

Kelly and Jane get amused at every single thing they see that does not even freak us.

I even celebrated in my area just because they saw me walking and interacting with white people.

John also made a confession to us but when Kelly was not around. He says he is madly in love with kelly that we should help him but we didn't agree. We told him to Carry his cross by himself and no one told him that Kelly also loves him so the two are still on it.

Let them continue doing cat and rat and not open up to each other. 

So finally!
 Tomorrow we will be going back to the United Kingdom to start a new beginning together again and share one love again.

Are you surprised?

Yes my friends said I am going with them because everything about my school has been settled and taken CARE of.

I am the happiest person on earth because God has favored and blessed me more than I imagined.

Our flight is taken off by 9am tomorrow.

Nvidia Earnings Top Expectations As Sales Soar Amid Booming AI Demand
~1.4 mins read
Nvidia (NVDA) reported fiscal first-quarter earnings Wednesday that beat analysts' expectations and surpassed the increasingly high bar set by investors, as data center sales surged to record high amid booming demand for artificial intelligence (AI). Shares gained following the release.
Nvidia reported record revenue of $26.04 billion for the fiscal first quarter, more than triple what it was in the year-ago period, and above analysts' expectations, according to estimates compiled by Visible Alpha. Sales in Nvidia's data center segment surged to $22.6 billion, quintupling year-over-year and breaking the record set the previous quarter.
Nvidia's net income came in at $14.88 billion or $5.98 per share, versus $2.04 billion or 82 cents per share reported in the same period a year prior, also beating analysts' projections.
Along with its earnings beat, Nvidia announced a 10-for-1 forward stock split, meaning shareholders will get ten shares for each one they held before the split. The chipmaker said the stock split could help make the stock more accessible to employees and investors.
Each shareholder as of market close on Thursday, June 6, will receive nine additional shares of Nvidia's common stock, to be distributed after market close the following day on Friday, June 7. The stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis at market open on Monday, June 10.
The company also announced it will increase its quarterly cash dividend to 10 cents per share from 4 cents a share.
"The next industrial revolution has begun—companies and countries are partnering with NVIDIA to shift the trillion-dollar traditional data centers to accelerated computing and build a new type of data center—AI factories—to produce a new commodity: artificial intelligence," Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said in the earnings release.
Nvidia shares were up 4% at $987.49 in extended trading as of 5 p.m. ET Wednesday following the company's earnings release. They've nearly doubled in value so far this year.
