The Difference Between Spending Money And Enjoying Money As A Marine

http://king cadet.com

 

    Through 10 years of research and experience, I have seen that spending money and enjoying it are not quite the same as most people say there are! Far back, when I was still a teenager. I used to spend money on toys, video games, lotto, and so on just for my pleasure. At this stage of my life, all I had to do was to ask and I was given. Yeah! A Period of constant enjoyment. But as you know, not all good things come easy. My parents sent me to a maritime academy. So I can one day put food on my table.

    Two years have passed since then. I had to live with a student salary instead of a king's. So I decide to change my way of life and adapt to a standard that suited my present environment. OMG! It was hard as hell but fun. For instance, Back at the mall, either on a Friday or Saturday, I went to take a stroll. I met a bunch of people all dressed in some kind of #Wakanda, #Korea, #latina, #sexy What!!! Well as I said, they move into groups like friends compared to me. I was all alone. We all sat at some curry bar. The waiter intentionally skipped me for what so reason. Well, I didn't mind “Come rain, come sun ” she will be back. When she came, I selected a Handburger with fruit juice as the main dish and chocolate cake as dessert. While waiting for my meal, I made a video call with my big sis.. from America. She kept me company, so I didn't get bored sitting alone. Shortly after that, this hot Instagram chick ( chicken ) came and sat at my table; Talking of a blessing. Men! After chatting with her for more than 2 minutes,  all I remember saying was,” DEM!!!” Was it just me or she speaks too much. My time with her, reminded me of the time, I used to ask my parents for anything my eye sees lovely and they provided. I compared me sitting here with a hot girl and those there with their friends | lovers | ECC... and I realized this season isn't worth it. I was spending money irrespective of my new lifestyle instead of enjoying spending the money. The bill was about 10% off if you are a student, but it was still high. So I solve the issue at hand by applying the law of demand and supply. She demanded I should pay off the full bill like any lady will do these days. Since demand was strictly greater than supply and I didn't get anything from the conversation. I did what every gentleman will do which is ”say the truth”. I will leave the rest to your imagination.


    NB: Spending money for negative reasons or should I say unwilling reasons 99% doesn't always put a smile on one's day. It Is Funny To Know This World Has Change. New rules and but the same old game. A mentor of mine once said, “ IT'S THE PEOPLE YOU CAN'T IMAGINE NOTHING FROM, THAT END UP DOING THINGS PEOPLE CAN'T IMAGINE.” It's a double coin, If I were you, I will fill in the balance but I'm not so you got to choose. Which shall it be 0 or 1 ????

The Sole Lookout Man

LOOKOUT-MAN CNIC LIMBE Just like the police who are in charge of the safety of their citizen in society against all criminal circumstances that prevail or may prevail. At Sea, we have the Lookout man. He is a member of the bridge team (consisting of; OOW, AB,  boatswain , deck cadet, officers, and the master). With these awesome team, the vessel can navigate safely through the random occuring obstacle at sea. There are different duties assigned to the lookout man based on the time of day, and weather conditions.  Either way, he/her main duty is to ensure the safe navigation of the vessel at Sea. The sole lookout man with undivided focus on the task at hand using all his senses, mainly sight and hearing to detect incoming dangers for the safe navigation of the vessel.

An attempt to a port with no documents

Most people in this generation think that without the right documents or requirements they can't have access to what they want. Even though they might find something more important than what they are looking for on the way. Regardless, it's true but to an extent that can only be determined by the situation and character of the person at stake. “ Not long ago, I decided to go visit the port of Ghana for an internship program to cover the practical side of my course as a to-be Seafarer. I mailed the port for the recommendations but I wasn't emailed back. So I asked my seniors for advice which they gave me happily. I required just a school note which contained my name, course, level of education, and the signature of the vice-chancellor. I made a copy and deposited it at the post office.     The next day, my elder brother sent me a message to come and collect a package which he deposited at the port for me. On my way to the port, they were so many roads to ...
