Awesome Graduation Party Vlog – Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences!

Hello Muffins! Thank you for watching. This is an awesome vlog to share with you my Graduation experience at Rotterdam Business school.

I recently graduted from Rotterdam University of Applied sciences. I am so elated and had an awesome time! Few years ago, I started my University studies at Inholland University in Rotterdam i did my third and fourth year study at Hogeschool Rotterdam. During my study, I met and made friends with lots of national and international student whom came from different countries to study in the Netherands.

I did my digital minor in Digital marking, I also gave lectures at one occasion at Rotterdam Univeristy of appied sciences to my felow students, I taught them how to build a website and social media marketing due to the fact that i had my business fabulous beauies ( http://www.fabulousbeauties.nl/) , after the lecture, i got some great feedback fom my colleagues on how to improve my website and social medial activities. I am realy passionate about blogging, seo, marketing and sales. I and my team members did some great projects for companies such as Mobbr, Izifes, etc. I have been inspired by some great makeup artist, social media enthusiastic peope and also by my great lecturers. Rotterdam is a fabulous city to study there are lots of international business opportunities there. I highly recommend Rotterdam univeristy and applied sciences school for your studies, or Erasmus univeristy. When I can newly to the Netherlands, I wanted to study at Erasmus university, I was not so good at statistics, that was the reason i did not gain admission at Erasmus University.

In Nigeria, I did my studies of Biochemistry at Anambra State University, presently known as Odumegwu Ojukwu Univeristy, then during my final year study, I went with my fellow student to University of Nigeria, the best university in Nigeria to write my thesis on Anti diarrhoea effect of Combretum dolichopetalum plants on Diarrhoe. We did the test on Swiss albino rats. At Rotterdam University i wrote my thesis on Export of Jacaranda trading b.v. mobile hospital to Nigeria. One of the findings of my thesis research is that there is enormous amount of demand of martenal mobile hospital, laboratory in Nigeria.

I hope this vlog inspires you. Thank you so much for all your love, support and encouragements.

August Favourites

Hello beauties, I just posted a video on my YouTube channel. August month has been an awesome fabulous month, so I decided to share with you few of my August Favourite items. I love Mac products, I shared a Mac studio Fix powder in the video, the powder has been my favourite. I have been using Mac products for more than 8 years now, very cool product indeed. I usually buy Mac products from Partum Star, Douglas In The Netherlands, Sephora. I’m also loving the Gucci Rush perfume! It’s just fab.

Last month, I did a lot of styling, after a hard day at work, wearing sweaty jeans and shirt, I like to get home, take my bath with some Nivea or Dove shower gel, dress up in my favourite dress and create an awesome video to entertain you.

I also enjoy spending time with my lovely boys. My sons love playing with toys such as Lego, Playmobile, tennis,voetball water pistol , and reading books. My very good friend introduced me to some cool YouTube videos for kids such as Nintjes, teletubbies (which I already know) and some cool Dutch kids programmes. I got my older son an Adidas shoes and Nike school bag last week, and some cool dinosaur book.

I do love braiding my hair. I style my hair and do my makeup myself. It is essential to wash your hair with shampoo at least every week.

I usually shop my furniture from Ikea and Leen bakker in The Netherlands. Some of the furniture at my home, I alreay have them for many years. I have been living in The Netherlands for more than 6 years, all these years, I used to live alone few years ago, then I bought some items for myself.

Another August favourites are my study books , I recently graduated as International Business and management studies, during my study years, it was compulsory to buy some cool books such as Marketing research, Business ethics, Accountancy. I do enjoy reading my digital marketing book a lot. I recently got a Dutch novel called the Vligeraar, I do love it because it also has a movie too.

I enjoy cooking too, my favourite food is Rice with Chicken, I ensure to add salad to my meal every day, I ate some fruits also on daily basis during the month of August such as Kiwi,banana,Apple etc.

So I contacted the charity organisation I am working for, and they made appointment with the man, all the items where collected. such as Shoes, Scarf,Cloths, and many more ( see pictures). These items would be donated to people all over the world whom are in need of cloths and basic amenities. It feels great to help the poor and needy.

Working In The Netherlands

Hello Lovelies! Working In the Netherlands has been an awesome experience for me. I have had ample opportunities to work for prestigious companies such as Kuidvat, De Tuinen, Parfum Star, Allevo, Dorcas, Candelabra and Jacaranda Trading B.V. In The Netherlands. All these years in Holland, I have been happy living here, there are sometimes downsides and upsides aswell. I have also been able to build up my own business as a co founder of Fabulous beauties and watchstar.nl

The dutch people are very friendly and kind. Its als a great country to bring u your children expecially in Zeeland. You can easily find a job in recruitment agencies such as werk.nl, Randstad, Tempo team. Alot of tourist easily get a job in Horeca (hotels, catering and restaurants) . In case you do not speak dutch, it might be a problem finding a job, although there are alot of dutch persons whom speak english language

In Amsterdam, Rotterdam there are alot of dark people compared to Zeeland area. Almost everyone in The Netherlands speak englsh. Although it is very important to speak the dutch language in order to find a good job. The upside of living in The Netherlands is that other european countries such as Belgium, Germany are quite closeby.

It is very important to learn the culture of the Netherlands because the cultue of the Netherlands is very different as that of nigerian culture ( see hofstede cultural dimension).

All in All, my working experience in this country is awesome and I highly recommend The Netherlands to build up your career.

Keep in mind, there are alot of cheese here and you have to know how to ride a bike lol.

I love you

xoxo
