yea, i've long gotten over it, but i keep hoping that i'll just magically love what i currently study cos i didnt still get the course i wanted...
That apart, do u know of any university that retained its 19 years old first class graduate?
I dont know of any.


Hmm. Don't know of any though, but I think schools retain graduates with a First, depending on the department. I don't think age would matter.

I just spent a yr at home bt dos months lost were hell for me. I was rili frustrated with my parents especially my dad, i was kinda lonely at home bcus all my siblings were in skul, i cant even believe i endured dos days, sometimes i even cry silently in my room wen i see some of my friends going to d uni. Geez! It was pure hell for me, wat even made d matter worst is dat i didnt even make my waec at dat time wen i finished sec skul due to maths(d7). Nobody even told me b4 i started studyin harder for d nxt waec, jamb and pume. To God be the glory i wrote my waec again as well as my jamb and pume and i came out with flying colours. My name came out in d merit list of uniport and i was given my dream course (accounting). Bt it seems ASUU wants to make it 2yrs. Anyway U guys shud help me PRAISE THE LORD. It is rili nt easy
