Ulog 7: Life Of A Student Ulogger

The most beautiful things of life are sometimes experienced within little moments. Today I had a wonderful time in school.

with some of my colleagues

From wonderful lectures to chattering with colleagues to lunch and taking of pictures. The high point of today was when we were asked by one of our lecturers to meet with our PG coordinator, Dr. Adeyemo for direction on how to select electives.

after our first lecture

After our first lecture, we got to Dr. Adeyemo's office. When we arrived, we saw an inscription on his door that indicated visiting hours for students, (1:00-3:00pm). We stopped and pondered on what to do as we had another lecture coming up within that time interval.

We came up with an idea, and decided that one of us should take the risk, by disregarding the notice on the door, to go in and get the needed information. I was called upon, but I shook my head in disapproval.

I declined, not because I don't like taking risks but because I'm trying to avoid circumstances that will make me end up as the class representative. Before now, some had already suggested, "I want you to be our Classrep, we'll vote for you when the elections come up". And I would say, "no" that I'm not interested. They don't understand why I'm shying away, not because of incompetence but I don't wish to disappoint them, because I've already been saddled with a lot of responsibilities both online and offline. I'm trying to avoid not breaking down in the course of keeping up with responsibilities. I felt sick last week because of excess stress, and my productivity was drastically reduced. If I break down, how will I keep up?

So finally, a lady volunteered to take the risk, and we were cheering her up. She went into the office, came out later and gave us the information we needed. Before our second lecture, I spent some time to call my fellow Steemjet HR Team members, @ungest and @ninoh22 as I barely heard from them since morning. They're working tirelessly to ensure that the vision of the HR department becomes not just a success, but a legacy.

at the bank

After our second lecture, I rushed to the bank to apply for a new ATM card and block the former one, since I misplaced it over the weekend. I spent more time at the bank than I expected because of the long queue I met.

It got to my point and I was attended to. I later wanted to make manual withdrawal but I could not. I was told that I needed to upgrade my account from e-account to savings, that I'll have to bring a form of Identification, be it national ID card, Voter's card or their equivalent. I had forgotten long ago that I actually had an e-account. It broke my heart that I couldn't make the withdrawal as I returned home tired and hungry.

I've been told to come back and get my new ATM card within 7 days. I'll still go back there tomorrow at my spare time after lectures to see how to upgrade my account. Asides that, I think I had a wonderful day.
