My Journey yesterday

Whenever I am embarking on a Journey, I am always scared especially because of accident and robbery attack on the way but should I still be afraid when I have already committed into God's hand? Many times, I also found myself brave enough on the road because I do have the belief that nothing is going to happen. I don't pray to experience road accident or robbery attack on the way at all.

God was faithful yesterday that He granted I and my brother a safe trip back to school. Even though I was sad I didn't want to leave home so quick but I am happy on the other hand because a journey I started few years ago would be ending in few weeks time. I can't wait for the countdown next month when we start our exams.

I told Olasquare about my journey yesterday and how I ended up boarding the bus with old men and women. He asked if I wanted a guy seated next to me instead? Lol

If at all a guy is seated next to me, I don't know how to talk to strangers in the bus or car but wouldn't it be nice if such guy notice a beautiful lady beside him? 😄 The journey was so boring and uninteresting that I just had to keep listening to the music tracks in my phone as a company. The whole bus was smelling as I couldn't endure such odour. It was the worst experience for me yesterday but above all, I got home safely.

The worst of it all in the bus was seeing a woman drinking Petrol. I was shocked as to what could cause her drinking it. I thought she would even spit it out but no, she swallowed it. I couldn't believe there would be somebody drinking Petrol that is capable of killing the body. I got home and asked a friend why would someone drink such in the bus. She explained that the woman might be feeling Nauseous with the smoke and gas in the bus and wouldn't want to vomit, she had to take it to help her control herself.

That is so bad I must say and I think this is ignorance worrying some people. There are other ways to do this instead of drinking Petrol. It's risky and dangerous to the body.

When I got to school, I started missing home again. I already told my cousins and sister at home that I would be coming back when I finish everything in school including my project, at least let me come and rest at home after I drop my pen. I told my immediate sister about this and she was like "you will continue your work at least". I replied her and said that is the beauty and advantage of online work. You can work anywhere from home at your own comfort, with no one controlling you or having to enforce some tasks on you provided there is electricity and you subscribe on your phone, you are good to go.

MY SCHOOL CHANGED TO A FEDERAL UNIVERSITY

I was at home when I saw different messages in the group that my school has been changed to a federal university and the news is all over everywhere as they have signed all necessary bills for it. Every Nigerian should know Adeyemi College of Education in Ondo town, the school was established in 1964 and till date, it has been the best college of education in Nigeria.

I am a student of Obafemi Awolowo University but affiliated to Adeyemi College of Education. Definitely I am a student studying a degree course there. Thank God I took this decision and not going to the main campus itself. I wouldn't be graduating early as now because of strike. Now, that the college has turned to a federal university, it wouldn't be affecting us because we came in through OAU studies and so my certificate would be OAU and not AFUED as the name being changed to. It's called Adeyemi Federal University of Education now and not a college anymore. Another benefit here is that service would be faster compared to waiting for OAU to post its students for NYSC.

Perhaps the school won't be doing NCE programme starting from next session again. In fact many Lecturers would lose their Jobs because according to the school, any lecturer without PH.D will be ejected immediately. This has made some of them enrolling in one already so as to avoid losing their lecturing Job.

I didn't know I would do much online yesterday as I already envisioned that the day would look somehow but I did attended to many articles. So, it's another beautiful day to get up and work. Let me see where I would get to today.

Did you read to the end? I appreciate you so much. God bless you 🙏
