Hi everyone, I'm so happy to be here today. Hope we all doing great. I'm so happy be part of this contest because student and hustling is not easy.
I'm a level 3 microbiology student in the University of Bamenda Cameroon. In which I did discover that the university life is not same with that I had back then in secondary school, so I was force to engage myself in to other side hustles to help me out with my studies and other stuffs live social life. I had friends who where able to withstand without side hustling but with others that we knew our background isn't strong we had to start something.
In this writeup I will explain my side hustle in campus by answering some questions;

What is your side hustle

My side hustle in campus is mostly selling of laptop on my social media page and on my status.
I knew someone whom I once bought my laptop from, so one day why thinking on what I can do to better up my stay and study I came up with the idea of talking to the owner of the shop in which he accepted so I go there took pictures of different laptops and thier prices came home add something to the price I was told and place dem on my status so if and one is interested the person writes me if its OK with you you pay I then go to the shop and buy then pay the price I was told then the additional gain is mine.
Also I do assignments for classmates and students who are below my class level that's level one and two.
Also I do analysis data for students doing projects and can't do it.
I do photocopy pass exams question and sell to students for revision.

How do I merge both side hustle and education on campus

For the laptops I sell I do it all the time even when am in class I do chat with people that want to buy because my phone is my main office. So after class on days I have classes I rush to the shop get everyone's orders them move back to campus.
For the assignment mostly when am doing mine I do others for cases of my mates which is to my advantage because I do gain my knowledge. Its just like I'm reading or the project it is not all the time you get some one for this so when it time for project write I get myself super stressed. And I mostly do then at night after I'm done with studying.

How many hours do I work a week on my side hustle

I do work 24/7 a week since its just chatting and delivering the buy product . For Assignments I can really tell because its not all the time you get some one that need your help

Conclusion

University life is not easy so if you don't find yourself doing something you will run into troubles because you will alway need extra cash.
I do enjoy what I do alot it has already given my ideas about business in which I plan to one day get my own shop in which I will continue what am doing now.
