It was Phy 111(Mechanics). That was the first time i sat on floor to receive lesson � A hall tha was meant to accommodate max 350 students was struggling to sit about 800. Las las, i realised that going to those crowdy lectures was mostly counter productive. I used to sleep jejely in the hostel, then catch up with the notes later.

Are you an Abusite?

On my first day we had GST101 at about 8AM. I woke up around 4AM, prepared and got to school 6AM.

I initially thought I would be the first to get there but I was surprised by the numbers of students that were already seated. After taking my seat a certain man from the street whom everyone of us taught was a lecturer, came to sell his books titled "English and Englishes." grin

After successfully convincing us that one could be sent out of the university for not passing English, everybody in the hall bought the book with fear. grin
I bought the book with the last card I had on my wallet thinking it was my textbook for the semester. Little did I know that the man is well known for scamming freshers. He smiled cheerfully, counted and made away with thousands of naira under the watchful eyes of everyone in the hall. shocked

The useless book was less than 15 pages containing trash upon trash. I had to throw it in the nearest trash can. angry



I dont want to curse the man!

I bought it too!

Mine was quite hilarious grin, I had always despise calculations so much since my secondary school days which made me to opt for the course I studied (not knowing the course also deals with calculations in a quite elaborious manner grin).


Got to my department for the first time, went to our secretary office and introduced myself as a new student, he welcomed me and told me to go and copy the time table at the notice board outside.
Got to the notice board, not knowing how course codes work, I copied everything from first year to almost final year till a student in his penultimate class (he later u became the departmental president) saw me and asked me if I am a new student, I answered in affirmative, he directed me to a class that my mates are already having a lecture, I was tensed and didn't know how to proceed.

Mustered courage and excused myself into the class, lo and behold, my first lecture was Statistics (another calculations). In my mind, I was like I don fail be this ooo! the whole process was just like an exorcism session. I was just there staring at the board looking at how the lecturer was just doing her stuff. Before she ended her lecture, she looked at us, seeing that the whole process looks confusing to us, she made herself open to us, telling us to feel relaxed, admonished us and told us to always approach her when we find any challenges.

Immediately after the lecture, I went to her, instead of telling her my fear, I told her that I am stranded grin, because I was petrified (stranded maybe in calculation xanadu). She looked at me coded my message, talked to me like a friend and told me that I shouldn't be scared that I will make it well.



After that semester results came out and lo and behold, your boy made an A in that course, thanks to that lecturer and a special thanks to my best friend (Wisdom), who made the whole calculation process look and feel so easy, and made me fall in love with calculation.

On the other hand, the course that I was expecting and enphantic A in, failed me woefully. It was like a mirage how I failed that course but the good thing is that when I went for its resit, I didn't just make an A but also made the best result in the sequential course of that same course. grin grin cheesy




#back in the den of lions and lionesses.



This is almost like my case. Never liked any form of calculation. But the first class i attended was Business Maths, I almost bought another Jamb form. But my friend Ernest encouraged me and together we pulled through successfully.

Pretty chill.

Got to the hall about 2mins late and the first thing I noticed was how much the males dominated in numbers cry
The hall was sha almost filled, only back seat rows were empty. My shy self was even kuku happy. I found a nice, whole empty row and went to sit in the middle so nobody will find a reason to talk to me.
That's how this Caleb guy sitting in front of me started turning his head to strike a conversation with me haaaaa! I was so shy and tense that I couldn't even look at him, even for my lips to move and respond to him was problem.
When I now finally managed to mouth some words, I told oga to face his front and concentrate on the lectures cheesy

My first day of lecture was gst 105
That day I was in school before 6am despite the fact that the lecture will start by 7:am

That day, I made sure I answered some few questions which made me known to the lecturer
It was like a competition between I and one of deputy governor in which it was just both of us that we're answering almost all the questions in the class and from that day we became the lecturer favorite that every time we have him, he'll always ask us questions...

My first was fun. I was happy receiving my first lecture in the university but what happened after made it more fun. A guy called me asking me to give me the money on me or he had gun me down. I candidly told him to do so as I no want come that university sef as it was my second choice. Though I had a senior brother then who had told me to show no fear as freshers are victims of extortion and intimidation by must returning students.

My name came out on the last admission list so they were already weeks ahead of me.

My first day in class: I was shuffling between the registration center and class.

I was really a very shy person, finally located the class midway lecture.
You know those kind of silence when you can hear if a needle drops ,I peeped through the window cry cry cry.

See crowd! shocked shocked. It was a faculty course so more than 3 departments were in the hall .I prayed in my mind while walking in ... Nobody at the front seats wanted to shift for me embarassed embarassed.

The lecturer ( with microphone on) said "you people think you're still in your village secondary schools,you'll suffer ehhhn , imagine coming to class when the lecturer is almost rounding up ,this is UNIPORT ,go and ask about me ".



I was so embarrassed ,with over a thousand eyes staring at me.

I had to move/sneak from table to table before someone finally shifted a bit for me to sit.
She became my best friend in school.

Fortunately she was in my department and stayed at the hostel I was given so she made it really easy for me to catch up.

It made me go to classes very early ...it's either I was waiting for the lecturer to arrive or I was coming in with many other students. grin grin.

That particular lecturer became my Mentor and monitor because he's from my village and knows my dad grin grin grin.

Shallat to all LCS2010/11. grin grin grin


im shy like you and reading your write up sef dey shake me grin grin

My first day was my breakthrough day because it actually set the pace for me. A Professor of Guidance and Counseling walked in and asked me "What are the three areas of human learning?". I told her I don't know. She then said to me "a mere looking at you, I thought you were bright, is this simple thing you don't know". it was as if the ground should open let me enter. the class became very tense up because students were anticipating what next could possibly happen. But from that day I vowed to graduate with the best results in that department. All thanks to God I became the most popular, most soughted, most consultated student by students. I wrote assignments for students, I tutored some and went as far as becoming the President of that department, Sole Administrator, and till day Professors in that department still love and honour me. I end up winning on everyside and graduated with strongest 2.1.

Maths 111. Tuesday morning.
I came late for the class, cause I walked a very long distance from my Lodge to the school through one of the main gates, hadn't discovered any of the short routes then.
The man was teaching PMI.. Principles of Mathematical Induction. Then sets.
I was just at the back hissing and sighing, telling myself "chaly,see as your failure just start."

my first lecture was maths 111, the topic was sets.. I actually went to the wrong lecture theater because I wanted to be with my friend she was an engineering student.. I was nervous but so happy I couldn't believe I was in the university at long last.. recalling that time is making me nostalgic, it was one of the best most carefree periods of my life.

Right from the first day everybody go dey form serious student. Some will even go for night class that same night lol who una dey deceive. Well during my own first time in the university, I entered class, it was so crowded coz for 100l so many departments dey do the same course. Fine fine girls everywhere but as a bad guy I saw some mature niggas for back seat just flexing and enjoying life, Dem no even send weytin lecturer dey talk... For my mind na my kind of niggaz be this.. I mixed up, we gisted and became padis and 100 level is usually the easiest to fvck babes coz most of them are still naive, dem never see life and they're ready to explore. No jokes e get one guy wey dey fvck at least 2 different babes per week. Na girls dey rush am, u don't even need to have a car or something, just dress well with swags, they'll trip for you. But me as I no get money, I barely had swaggerlicios cloths to wear but still as swagger no fit do the talking fr me, I made it up with my sweeth mouth. Chai I remember one time I told a fellow fresher like me I love seeing a girl in blue bikini lol next time she came to my house she was on blue bra and panties. Those 100l girls their kpekus too tight. Very tight and wet. Na for 100 I chop toto for the first time in my life sef can't forget that day. I lick that toto like ice cream. Memories mehn. University life sweet Sha.. if you get money you go enjoy uni die. I mean die.
