Family / Being Disowned By Your Mom Because Of Your Career Prospect by ohgurl(f): 3:50pm On Oct 24, 2015
Hello,I don't know if this is the right section to post this but am really confused and need matured advice.My story goes thus;after the joy of gaining admission,although I was not given my dream course I wanted English and was given Linguistics while i picked law in my UTME.I sound like a confused fellow right?Am actually not confused I know what I want,but due to circumstances am going to explain I chose law.
Lemme try to explain a bit,am from a broken home and my mom has been doing basically doing everything from finance to feeding,clothing and all.I have a dad but an irresponsible one.At times he sends money to me,but not every time and his inconsistent coupled with the fact that he fails to keep to his promise.So my mum wants me to study law by fire by force,just few days ago she has called that she is no longer concerned about my school and I should not call her because have failed to study law.I was once a science student,an unhappy one as at that because I was pushed by my mom to study science,in fact I was promised I will study medicine in any university in the world by my step-dad.The truth is that I was not thrilled a bit and crossed to art.Hell almost let loose and she told me after my 'o levels' when I come to meet her in abroad I will still go back to science.The plan failed and she wanted me to pick law for my UTME,I was left with no choice but to do that and now she has disowned me or I don't know if it is a threat.
Am planning my traveling process to go and meet her.Its almost through self and one of the condition is that,I have to deny my biological father at the interview because my step dad filed for me.I don't know if I will drop my surname,but she has been talking about putting me in medical school and I have to learn a trade i don't like because it will help me.I can not do what i like it is forbidden!Am being silenced in fear.I don't feel like traveling that is the truth.She doesn't even want me to accept the admission in the first place because it is not law and am traveling soon.Have decided to stand on my own but its impossible without financial support.I called my dad and he sent my fees promising to see me through.For the fact that my dad is irresponsible I have to have something I can fall back on if he fails me and I don't even trust him.The question is what can I do to sustain myself as a student?At times I have this fear of running back to my mum,which she knows I might later when I run out of cash.But a voice keeps telling me in my head 'to stand up for what i believe in' am so passionate about my dreams.Please am I making a mistake here or am on the right part? Everybody I know told me to go and beg my mum so I wont end up ON the street.If I finally gather the balls to stand alone what can i do to survive as a student?My dad is an option B,his inconsistent.So please help me.SORRY FOR THE LONG EPISTLE....CC lalastical please do the needful,am so confused right now I need my post to be pushed to F.P Thanks....

Career / We Need Education Not Schooling. by ohgurl(f): 1:37pm On Oct 13, 2015
Have you ever wondered why a lot of graduates are churned out of the school system every year and they have nothing to show for those hard-earned years of toiling,all in the name of bagging a certificate?Burning night candles,sleepless nights,cries for admission,money spent,rules to abide by and nothing to show for it?
Hopes of many graduates have been dashed away by unemployment,which some blame to the harsh economic condition of the country.This has not left even first class graduates out.You will see an okada man speaking correct polished english telling you his a graduate.So why the fuss of "I must go to school by fire by force?"Some even rush to further their education after their first degree hoping it will end the misery but still end up in frustration.
Let me make this clear to you'[/i][/b]am not an advocate of illiteracy[i][b]'I personally just got admitted in Unilorin and am barely 18.What I notice among aspirants and most of my friends is that they behave as if their life depends on a [/b]school certificate [b].No wonder when they graduate and the reverse happens they end up frustrated people.This drives some to the height of committing suicide.Why should your life depend on some written A4 paper crap.Am a subsequent visitor on nairaland and I can tell you have learnt more on this this thread,especially career section courtesy of people like X-fire,depreye(if i spelt it correctly) than I will ever learn in the four walls of a classroom.
80% of what you will make use of in real life is not taught in the classroom.Will school teach you how to put up with your nagging boss?Manage your relationship with your family?Developing saving habits?Am even shocked that C.V writing has not been added as a mandatory course for every student in tertiary institution.A lot of graduates don't know how to compute a good C.V.What will fetch you what is in your hands is what is in your head,so what am trying to say in essence is that education is important.
All those theorems and principles taught in school does not apply in the real world.So you need to school yourself extensively to be educated.We still have people that are first class graduate and are [/b]educated illiterates[b].I think educational system needs a total overhaul to suit the era we are in.Some teachings and practices are becoming obsolete.
Get education today!prepare yourself for the real world and stop limiting yourself to that A4 paper grade.You have 5.0 C.G.P.A and you are practically dumb so what?Change your thinking faculty and think wide.Am not yet an adult and I just got admitted and have made a promise not to limit myself.Its not who you are,where you are that matters but your outreach to the world.....Mods pls do the needful....Cc Lalastical
