dam007: your course?? remember, what rocks your boat might sink another's... besides, I feel you were a bit judgmental when you said #they party and merry# trust me, there are certain things you have to understand when you're in a tertiary institution. if you have your hands tied well enough you'll understand what the pleasure of letting off steam whenever you can really means to students under real pressure . I remember a time back in the university when all I had for myself each day was roughly 2 hours of 24... you cant really appreciate it now, you're only a 100 level student.. you'll get there. Perhaps, I was a bit judgmental. I'm only human! The university isn't my first higher institution. I graduated from Benue State Polytechnic in 2012. Ordinary Diploma in Mass Comm. I was the best graduating student. Got an award, one I now rather stamp under my feet. Cos after I finished, I realized the race is not for the swift. And fastest runners don't always win the race. So, now I know better. Good Luck to everyone. |

elookoo: lies maybe your friend wanted to go to a particular school, if you pass jamb and post utme and have your ssce , there is no way you will hustle public universities for 5 years without gaining admission in any It's a better decision to shut ur mouth if u don't know what u're talking 'bout. No Offense. My elder bro got admission into Unilag last year, after 8 years. Graduated secondary sch in 2005. Wrote JAMB 8 times. U never meet people.... |

Protest? Na dem dey pay the fees? Their parents are rich....why the protest?
For the rich, the higher the price, the better the value/ego/pride.
I don't think poor kids attend Babcock so a protest is absolutely hilarious.
When did rich people start protesting against spending money? |

queenfav: I woke up this morning with a lot on my mind. So much that I didn't know when tears started rolling down my cheeks.
I am getting frustrated. To think I did everything right in school to ensure I left with with a 2:1 grade. I ask myself ,where did I go wrong? To make matters worse, my family members think all is well since I am a "barrister".
I am slowly beginning to regret my decision to be a lawyer. Though I am still serving as a batch C corps member,I get scared. So scared that I may have to take up work in a firm that pays 15000 naira. God knows I have tried. I have sent out more than 200 applications, yet nothing!
Which job recuitment site have I not signed up with? This was not what I envisaged for my career when I was being called to bar. Even in the midst of the mass failure of my set, I bagged a 2.2 from law school; still nothing to show for it. I know people from my university that graduated with 3rd class now working with top law firms.
Well, I have been told to stop wasting my time by applying for associate jobs on the websites of law firms. The reason being that they rarely employ lawyers anonymously. It is mostly through recommendation or connection. God knows I really want to practice law, but the job is not forthcoming. I have my rent to pay, bills to take care of and cannot survive on 15k a month after 6 years of going to school. I am open to suggestions anyways.
Someone even adviced I start a business or learn a trade! Yes, that's how sad it is. Many may feel am overreacting. All fingers are not equal. Family members and friends I thought would be able to help out are now giving me the cold shoulder. I have cause to be worried since I am solely responsible for myself now. I can't even bear the thought of going back home to depend on my parents. If I had known it was going to be this way, I wouldn't have wasted my time and resources becoming a lawyer. What's the point? I am still looking and bringing myself to apply to firms.
After december, I may have to think of something else to do. Welcome to the real world, bro. I get upset when undergrads act like they'll be in sch for ever. All the partying and fun fair will end one day, it's as certain as death is to every man. So, y not prepare? Start planning ur life from ur first year in sch. U could even become rich by the time u're graduating.....but no! They'll keep partying and merrying about. It's ok to practice law....ur passion. But it's far better to be able to deep hands in ur pocket and pay the bills conviniently. I advice u embark on a quest to become rich....legitimately. Then u can even own ur own law firm, if law is ur passion. Take a clue from Tunde Bakare, Femi , and Muiz Banire. Go and read "The Richest Man In Babylon". That should get u started. Goodluck. Btw, I'm a 100L student of Kogi State Uni. And I already got a life plan. |

HE who holds time, they say HE'll be coming in no time. I pray I pay attention cos I've been giving HIM no time.
I must make investments with my time. Money, fame and success be competing for my investments, but I can't take them with me when it's time for me to exit.
Spend so much money buying a watch. But I never really watch. They say time waits for no one, but time has been waiting for you and me to repent.
Make investments with your time, cos time is your greatest possession.
