School brings back a lot memories where a lot of things that occured back then intrigues us to share. I personally faced a challenging part in school where I almost dropped out from school but due to sacrifice and dedication, I overcame that and graduated, which was really something to celebrated about.
Gaining admission in the higher institution was the first time I left home to study which was where my own life of facing something more different occured. Though I saved up in other to go to school because my parents weren't capable at that time to support, so I had to follow my dream because I really wanted to go to school.
I was having the mindset that the money I saved up will be able to carry me all through the semester not until I find myself stuck in the middle where dropping out was almost the final option to do not until I got a job to support. The time I do have my lectures is from 8am to 2pm sometimes 3pm which wasn't easy for me because the job I secured is a bar business where I resume by 6pm till 3am.
Now there was no time for me to rest not to talk of reading my books but because I knew the situation at hand, I decided not to give up but to pick up the challenge to fulfill my mission. The only time I have to study back then was on Saturday and that is from 12pm to 4pm before I would start preparing for work again.
It wasn't easy for me because then I was suffering but smiling where most of my course mates don't understand my situation instead they laugh at me when they notice I do sleep in class. All my aim back then in school was just to pay the necessary bills needed like handouts, school fees, feeding and accomodation.
I was privilege to secure that job because every expenses I needed to pay in school came out from there likewise my final project expenses as well. I felt down the more during my last semester In school because that is when I lost my father that my mindset became diverted but at the end am grateful I graduated without any issue in school.
My story and lifestyle in school is part of an encouragement to never give up in what you do because challenges no doubt will showcase but how you pick up courage and determination is what will lead to you achieving you goals, so never give up as better things awaits us in the future.
