Nothing is impossible, only if you believe “.
These very words kept ringing in my head like
an iPod stuck on replay as I alighted the fare
which brought me to the confines of the University of Benin, Benin city. Though the phrase
was popular, hells! it was almost a cliche at the
time, but something about the voice of my dad
when he said those words to me, gave me a
somewhat ” challenging feeling”. I have always
performed well right from time immemorial, I
never fell short of the first 10 brightest students
in my primary school, at a point I thought I was
the best student in the world, but I was later
gonna discover that life in the university is a
different ballgame. I came to learn that the
previous knowledge I garnered from my sec
school had little or nothing to do with anything.
I came to terms with the fact that in sec
schools “we were taught knowledge not how to
study”. I remember coming back home
every day from school with my uniform virtually
tattered and looking scraggy, only to pounce on
whatever I find in my mom’s cooking pot and
then run off to play soccer. I never had quality
time for my books cos I always felt that prior to
the exams I could easily scan through my notes
and go In to take examinations from which I
always came out successful. Little did I know
that I was paving way for my impending doom.
I got admitted into the famous uniben, and like every other freshman that
year, I hoped to make good grades after my first
year. Sadly, I got caught up in The euphoria that
preceded my admission and failed to study. My
earlier stated hope looked set to crumble not
until I met a friend, whom I owe my reignition.
This dude changed my mindset and set me
back on the right course. Soon enough, I found
myself attending tutorial
Sessions,going to library( though I spent a bulk
of my time here sleeping), and joining reading
groups. To sum it all up, it wasn’t all doom and
gloom for me. I finished my 100l academic
session with a CGPA of 4.89. I’m not trying to
intimidate you with my GPA, I’m trying to tell
you that yours can be better! Yes, you can
finish your 100l in any federal university with a
CGPA of 5.0. This would be a solid start to an
eventual first class honour. But “nothing lasts
that comes easy”, hard work doesn’t kill, its the
GUILT of doing nothing that kills. Don’t enter the
university with the mindset of ” I’m naturally
intelligent, hells I can pass any examination
without studying”. Granted, you could be
“naturally intelligent” but you would certainly
find urself with carry-overs in as many courses.
Don’t deceive yourself! A word is enough for the
wise!
