Hey guys.
I did mention that I was on internship. Well, it so happens that I am 'working' at a helicopter company (Caverton Helicopters) in Lagos.
Let me also mention that I'm in love with aeroplanes and other aircraft. I have always been fascinated by them but I got convinced that I wanted to interact with 'em professionally when I lost a dear aunt to a plane crash in October 2005 barely 7 days to her much anticipated wedding. [May her soul rest in peace]
But I have always loved from the outside. Having a glimpse of the industry through this internship, I have come to know that the pay isn't all that worth the 'stress' involved.
I want a good life for my future family and let's be frank, 'passion' ain't gonna put bread on the table. (X_X)
Also, I just bagged an offer for internship at ExxonMobil (which is currently the richest company in the world $.̮$) and there's little or no work involved as compared to the aviation sector with incomparable rewards in legal tender *cha-ching* and other benefits.
And presently, I have an academic standing good enough for both fields but the dilemma is bewildering.
Well, for now, I'm sticking to passion with high hopes that, in the nearest future, the pay increases. But if not, hmmm... I'm porting to oil oooo *lol*
Have a wonderful day.
Hey there. Nice to have you on my blog. I'm new to the whole experience though so let me start with an intro of my humble self: I'm Daniel Eleojo Abba. Native of Kogi State, Nigeria and born 23rd May 199_ to Mr. Joe and Mrs. Esther Abba in Lagos.
I started my education at Anchor Model School, Ipaja, Lagos (now Anchor Mirrors Nursery/Primary School) where I studied till Nursery 2. I later switched to Divine Grace International School (also in Iyana-Ipaja) where I had my Primary 2 to Primary 5 education. Then I rounded up the Primary School experience at Onward Nursery and Primary School, Surulere, Lagos; from which I graduated in 2003.
I immediately gained admission into King's College, Lagos where I had my complete high school education experience and graduated in July 2009. Thereafter, I was admitted into Covenant University where I am pursuing my 5-year Bachelor's in Engineering degree (B.Eng, Mechanical Engineering) due in 2014.
I currently reside in Lekki with my parents but I plan on changing that in the immediate future though. My hobbies include: music, traveling, and Math. My ultimate dream is to make Heaven but I would like to be an Aeronautical/Aerospace Engineer someday.
That's my somewhat brief history. More will be revealed in the course of time.
WELCOME TO MY WORLD!!
