My Experience As A University Student Part 2 (25-1-2026).
Hello steemian, my name is Purity Okon but my user name on steemit is @ purityy, am here to share again my experience as a undergraduate, the first semester in my year one was draining, at a point I will want to give up, but what always keep me going is when I remember the people that are looking up to me, that gives me strength and courage to continue struggling, because as they say, there is light at the end of tunnel. I keep pushing till my second semester year one, I began adapting little by little, the money for my business finished and I was surviving with the little my mom gives or someone just called and decide to just give me something.
My guy too tried his best, but you know he is not my father, he is not yet married to me, so he can only do what his strength carry, with all the stress I was going through it didn't show on my body, if you see the way I was adding up eh! You will know true true that am confusing my village people, everywhere I go, people will be complimenting me how nice looking I am even when I visit the home people at home will be asking me if truly am in school, because I don't look like one that's in school, me I was afraid ooooo! Make destiny helpers no pass me by, thinking I have made it, that I don't need help again, the course am studying is a very nice course.
I became close to this particular guy in my department, till today I don't know how that friendship started or what brought us together, but I will say fate, because he has been nice and helpful to me, he always urge me to read, and be hopeful that better days are coming, people that murmuring that we were dating, but I smile because that is not true, is not as if I can't be close to a female colleague in my department, but female, no! Especially the ones in my department, they think they are better than another person, at times I will want to be close to them but they will ignore me so I stopped, and decide to be on my own. Am an entrepreneur, a fashion designer, but people like free things, especially if they get close to you a little, that was why it seems I was lacking money with my hand work.
I was able to come out of depression, all thanks to the fellowship I joined which helped me, remoulded me, and use the bible to recreate me, i started living fine, even when things were not going well, but the bible was my strength, second semester examination was at the corner, and I know I needed to read and get prepared very well, because this time around we were writing with computer not hand written, you know what that means, I have to read everything, do research and more. I joined a study group which we do read after lecture, but I also have my spare time which I read at night, though I was not serious like my first semester.
The examination was so stressful, because tell me why I will read, prepare myself going to write exam by 8am, but I will end up writing the exam by 5 pm, that is if they don't postponed the exam, everyday the same thing repeat it self, exam that was supposed to last three weeks turn to one month plus, at a point I stopped reading, because I will read, getting there I will not write, and they made a very poor arrangements, a school of over billions of students, but they have only a thousand of computer, how do they expect the exam to go smoothly, but thank God at last I finish the exam, still waiting for my results, and I don't know why they do keep student results, instead of giving out to them. I still have things to learn while in this school which I will be sharing too, for now stay safe.
