Well, I'm gradually getting out of my comfort zone and loving it. kiss
Before now, I usually, as a student, avoid standing out in public as much as I can. I just keep to myself as I don't like crowds and it drains me a lot (up till now). angry
Earlier this semester, a friend suggested I contest for a departmental post(exco). His reason was based solely on my academic record and calm attitude. Little did he know how much I dislike publicity and to make the matter worse, it's going to be an election. undecided
I agreed with the condition that he will do most of the campaigning. I did my part by posting on the group chats and a little of talking. Election came and passed, and to my surprise, I was declared the winner. I would feel very bad I if I had lost though.
On the course of the campaign, I realized that speaking with people (other than one's close associates) is not as bad as it seems. Especially when there is an important reason for it. One just have to develop courage (which of course takes time and practices) to express one self in a simple and clear terms.
Another important thing to note is, if you don't normally talk, people will be more inclined to listen to whatever you want to say anytime you want to say it. And this is a time to show them what you have got unfailingly.
Of course, It's okay we are just being who we are. But then again, it won't hurt if we will, for our own personal interest, stretch out our comfort zone a little.

I used to have this problem too, check this out;

1- Strong determination - I've always had this dream to go into academics. How would I become a lecturer with such attitude, how would I present, defend my assertions, address protesting students etc, I said to myself 'Oh Man, You Need To Be Strong'
Then I would raise my hand in class to answer question, did a little politics (I was our class honourable/SRC), led my group pre&post data presentation and final defense and now I'm teaching as a Corper.

2- Preparedness - Just like the Scout motto 'Be Prepared'. Before raising your hand, talking to them or going up that stage, you need to be really prepared and confident of what you'll say and likely questions that could be asked. Sometimes you can jot down the main point and practise very well before you go up, but pls don't cram.

...during our professional induction, the anchor just came to me and said "give me your name, when prof is done talking, I'll call you to come and do the vote of thanks.....
If I haven't gotten off the 'stage shii' I would've disgraced my ancestors that day, lol
I'm grateful bro. This year is my year. I must get off this stage fright ish cheesy

I think you being in 300l should have given you enough time to handpick your clique. During my days, I used to sit in front (was war before I could achieve that though. Trick is, coming to class early before many people), and the front sir usually doesn't command the lecturers attention as backbenchers think. Over time, I built confidence, and then would ask questions when no clear about something, right there in class (cos I had many "mumu" course mates that won't understand what the lecturer taught, they have no plans of making researches afterwards, and will never admit they don't know it. So I don't wait til exam time), plus I learn better by asking questions cos the lecturer tries to use relatable phenomena to explain, and it sticks better. Don't be ashamed to ask questions, cos you will be surprised how many people are in the class that has absolutely no clue what the lecturer is talking about, they will never seek clarity until exam time, and yet these same set of people will be giving you negative vibes when you are asking intelligent questions. I got respected in class the day I asked a question and people where giving their bad vibes. The lecturer then started asking everyone one after the other to give the ans. To my perplexity, not a single person among the block heads mubbling, could ans. Lecturer warned them sternly never to mumble or grumble when next I ask questions and they don't know the ans. Truth is, the intelligent ones will never give you bad energy, so don't be disturbed.
Overtime, your confidence should grow. I want to believe to defend a group work, you most likely will sit in groups or larger chunch of people being in your group. Try to imagine you are talking to them during the group presentation. If you goof (its not always a bad thing), they will laugh at you and you won't feel bad cos they are in your clique. You can even end up adding humour to the presentation "accidentally" while you try to correct your goof. Don't overthink it, don't overdo it, just let it flow naturally. Practice, makes perfect. You will get an hang of it, trust me.
Lets see what others have to say
I will keep this in mind. Thanks
EducationRe: My Jamb And Waec Results Bears Different Name Combinations by Epositive(m): 12:39pm On Jan 10, 2020
Samzyarmani:
Please I need your candid opinion here as I mistakenly used two different name combination on my jamb and waec results.

My waec bears RAPHAEL SAMUEL CHUKWUNONYEREM
and jamb is RAPHAEL SAMUEL CHUKWUDI


Though both names used are mine but I was confused when I was about filling the forms.
I want to know the consequences of this on clearance from University...
WILL THIS REQUIRE AN AFFIDAVIT TO LAY CLAIM TO BOTH CERTIFICATES.
AND FOR CLARIFICATION FROM THE UNIVERSITY.
Definitely, it will require affidavit to claim the WAEC certificate. Since University will make use of the name on your Jamb certificate.

As far as I know, there's no consequence on clearance from University. You just have to make sure you always attach the affidavit to your Waec certificate if the need arises(like submission of files during registration, mostly as freshers -100L).

Aside from the court stress, there's really nothing to worry about bro!

He answers to my needs guys,he has been paying my rent since my first year in school, he gives me 10k every 2 weeks,he pays for my hair when I need him to + other stuffs too,do you think be can change or do I just leave the relationship?? Please ignore the errors,I'm not perfect

I'm struggling to combat with stage fright. Several times, I will dodge presentation for my department. My course mates do believe in my academic strength and how grammatic I could be in our group chats. Little do they know that, that's where my "capability" ends. They think it's pride. I also don't like answering questions in class, even when it will "liberate" my department from shame (as we have like 5 other agricultural departments taking same courses as we do and lecturers can be specific when dishing out questions in class). I used to be eager to be the "saviour" in my primary and secondary school days but it's different now.

Now, the problem is, I don't have a loud voice. You can barely hear me from the end of the room. Again, I find myself stuttering and energy-drained when in a (long) conversation, even with very familiar persons.

I will be in 300L in weeks to come and I want to get rid of this phobia as soon as I can. I'm in my early 20s.
