Kate's Regret

Kate had a wonderful performance in her secondary education, affording her admission into one of the foremost universities to study Economics. She got to school, so confident. Her beauty and prowess soon got her attracted to the biggest girls on campus and she enjoyed the glamour and fame, the partying and the travels. She got so pompous that she would not associate with the so called low class. Not even Tola, who was once her High school classmate.

At the end of her first session, she was close to first class and was confident that she would make it the next semester. During her final year, her quest for societal leadership made her lose concentration in class. She took a course from the Statistics department, which she couldn't get a grasp of, but thought she would crash-read it before exams. The little she could study was however not enough, as she failed the course.

Top companies, including Kate's dream company, offered the best students in the school employment at the end of that session but Kate missed out as she could not graduate. She regrets not approaching those who could teach her when she needed help.
