As I look at these pictures, I remember my university days and experiences, and I'm grateful for how far I have come and also grateful for my personal and professional growth.
My university journey began with a mix of excitement. I was very eager to explore new things. The stress in getting a lodge to stay was on another level. I didn't want to leave in the school hostel because I had heard all kinds of scary stories and didn't want to experience any of
I began my journey as an entrepreneur in my first year. I started selling clothes online. I couldn't make much sales because I didn't have enough contact, and it was discouraging me. .
Then we went on convid19 breaks. Because, I'm someone that loves anything that has to do with beauty and fashion, I decided to learn some skills. First was makeup, then I learnt about fixing nails and how to do
Despite the excitement and promise of combining school and business, I faced numerous challenges and setbacks. There were times when I struggled to balance my academic responsibilities with my entrepreneurial pursuits. I encountered unexpected obstacles, such as funding issues, team conflict, and many other things..
I had to try different directions and explore various business ideas before finding the right one.
There were moments when I doubted my abilities, questioned my decision, and felt overwhelmed by the pressure to succeed.
With everything that happened, I refused to give up. I was determined to succeed. I learnt from my mistakes and adapted to changing circumstances.
One good thing is this: despite the numerous challenges and setbacks, I was able to graduate with good grades, a sense of pride, and appreciation for the value of hard work.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my university experience was the great opportunity I had to meet new people from different backgrounds and cultures. I connected with individuals who shared similar interests and passions. Some of this connection blossomed into meaningful friendship. My friends have become more than just acquaintances; they are a support system and were like family to me.
Another interesting part of my university experience was the opportunity I had to develop my leadership skills. I decided to run for a post in the department, and after the campaign, I won; I was elected as the director of socials. I was so excited I felt loved because I didn't have to do too much to win.
The role of director of socials helped me in a way. I was able to plan and execute the fresher night party and also a pageant for Mr. and Miss Dental Technology. I learnt a skill of event planning and budgeting and also team working and management.
After my final examination and my project defence. I went ahead and registered for my professional examination and prepared very well for the examinations. I wrote the exams, and I'm proud to say that I passed all my papers with flying colours.
I'm grateful for the opportunities and lessons learnt during my time at the university. And I owe this to God and my family.
