I've not come to regret anything in my life, so University of Ibadan is not special or different.

Currently, I'm about to enter my finals in UI and so, I've had experiences that cut across personal life, politics, religion and a few others.

I don't regret playing and watching football while in school.

I don't regret being the crazy guy amongst other friends and roommates. I sabi curse and yab people. cheesy grin

I don't regret coaching my department female team, currently, I'm quite enjoying the fact that I help these ladies to become stronger individuals tomorrow.

I'm also a mentor to a few guys.

I don't regret running for all the elective positions that I've held so far, and I don't regret resigning when the spirit of service to humanity can no longer be felt by me.

I don't regret the fact that the only girl I've had anything to do with in my 200l, I didn't end up having sex with her.

I've grown to be social (despite being introverted and conservative). I stay on campus but no dull moment with me unless our spirits fail to flow in one accord.

I've had my own share of fun, I can watch two (2) Indian movies a night before an 8AM exam, and I'm on a 2:1. I'm also a music guy.

I've had a few business ideas, tried blogging and forex trading but didn't work out. Tried Fiverr too but the place seemed comatose.

I'm strongly planning my own start up immediately after NYSC.

Above all, I'm very pleased with myself that I found a God who's faithful and reliable.

I think the very reason I've managed to be free from having regrets is because I avoided negative peer influence and pressure. Above all, I listen to my heart and conscience when I need to and my brain whenever there's a need to.
Lol....I trust you will deliver well. You no dey carry last.


Why will you have regrets after school when you are already doing practically everything a lot of us regretted not doing while in school? All the social activities, being more active, dabbling into politics, taking care of our Spirit man & above all, excelling in our fields.

Thumbs up hun! Continue in this strength and even more. Your expectations in school and after school shan't be cut off.

I guess most people on nairaland had the same type of regrets.
The most common is not having more and more sex. Such a pity.

I started with a low grade (3.8 out of a 7.0 grading system) but I worked my way up, while ignoring those who chant “grade doesn't matter”. Even if it won't matter, I just like for myself to not feel useless tomorrow after finishing with a poor grade.


Lol! I lost my school fees and accommodation money to that fraud, God saved me o.

My ex-girlfriend, a few weeks before resuming for my freshman year, we got to that level but didn't complete it, that also, I don't have regrets for.

Really?, most of the regrets I saw was about not going out and living life.
Hiding inside rooms and going from class to home and back.

That's what I saw most people regret.

Hear the word of the Sovereign LORD o simple one:

Wealth obtained by fraud will dwindle, but whoever earns it through labor will multiply it.--proverbs 13:11

Desist from belonging to the generation of men that sees betrayal as cleverness, feeding on the agony of their own kind, and rejoicing at the expense of their own soul.
Trading their destiny for vanity and their eternity for Benz.
Look!

There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.--proverbs 14:12

Accept Jesus with your whole heart and soul, and Incline your ears to the reproves of life for your own good and for the good of the children after you.!!!"

I'M PRESENTLY AN ADMISSION SEEKER AND I WAS ADVISED TO WITHDRAW LAST YEAR AFTER JUST A YEAR ON CAMPUS.

I read but still failed. So I regret READING! In retrospect, reading now feels like profligacy to me. I read too much and it was rather counterproductive.

Au contraire, I regret not having lots of sexx

I wish I had fùcked more handsome boys en masse and perhaps girls too, to fully explore my sex life.

From what you've written, you're about to make the biggest mistake that will totally ruin your memories.

Fools enjoy doing wrong, but anyone with good sense enjoys acting wisely.--proverbs 10:23

Submit to God and be at peace with him; in this way all will be well with you--Job 22:21

You're correct, but the sex part is still visible on almost every page of this thread.

I don't think not going out to live life should be a regret, because our malleability shouldn't be a thing we cultivate just in college, it's a lifelong trait.

Lol, yeah I remember now.
Talking about how they regret not fucking that girl they could have bleeped without much effort. Or regretting being in relationships or abstaining from relationship.


Well, it depends on the individual, as long as they feel they should have gone out. Then they would have regrets.

Effortlessly, we can overlook that point in time and be happy for what we have.

Your second paragraph, very true especially when one isn't contented with their present situation in life.

That's where regrets and depression begins to set in.

Not allowing the school to pass through me.
Everything happened really fast for and getting admission at a very young age and as the first born,i felt this enormous responsibility to set a good tone for my younger ones,mehn the pressure was real.
I went hard on my academics;i was all about the library...
I had beleif in God,i wasnt religious at all.
Am in my finals now,will be graduating with first class by God's grace,this final year i would try things,go out more and maybe bang one or two undergrads just for the records.

Hear the word of the Sovereign LORD O simple one:

Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.--Ecclesiastics 11:9

be well grounded in my field and vocabulary. I have started it already like a month ago, but I want to know if it'd be worth it at the end.
sorry, I couldn't respond to you on-time, I was too busy with things.

Anything you do for long improve you but the question is how far can the improvement be. It depends on how you go about it that will matter how much you improve.
Yes, by training on vocabulary you are likely to improve but my question is FOR HOW LONG?. so you know a lot of grammar?

My advice
The easiest way to become good with grammars and learn alot of Jargon related to your field is to check up words meaning and read historic reason of a word while reading any books related to your field and also check up any word you hear in any professional discussion and learning. This way is more better because knowing vocabulary is a life long process and it take paying attention to meaning and history behind new names, words, events and so on related to your field.

That said, you said you wanted to be grounded in your field. Before I answer the question I need to know TO WHAT END IS YOUR GROUNDEDNESS?
1. Is it that you want to excel academically only (good grades)
2. or you want to be very vast and theoretical in your field.
3. or You want to pragmatical in your field( very practical)

NOTE: The choice could be more than one but description of your goal would help me better and also tell me of your academic achievement (your current level)
I need this answer to give you a professional advice.
