As human, we have those things which we have done and at the end of the day, we become so proud of the outcome. Depending on the individual, it could be a decision you took few years back and after so much struggles, that decision changed your life positively and you were very proud that you took such step, it could also be getting a degree or choosing the right partner, it could be anything you can think of just that, you were proud of the outcome and you never for ones had a regret or even thought about going back.
I have done so many things that I know I'm very much proud of and even till now I can't stop being proud of myself. I think I will call it Faith because without it, I wouldn't have been here today or probably writing this article. After high school, I wrote jamb to enter college, I choose the course I have always dreamt of studying which is medicine and surgery in one of the best federal school and I wasn't giving admission. I was very said, my mom told me to rewrite another one the next year, I couldn't think straight knowing fully well that I will be wasting another year at home.
I thought of a way out and the only thing that could come out from my brain was to enter a polytechnic which my mom was against because according to her, they don't pay well with such result. I tried my best to convince her telling her that while I'm studying, I can still purchase jamb form and write the exams again. After much persuasion, she finally agreed and I went to school, my plans then was to have an ND result then use it to enter university which will be more easier if only I will graduate with distinction or upper credit. To cut the story short, I graduated with upper credit and I was able to apply to the university which I got the admission, although not actually the course I wanted to study but it was okay. My results from polytechnic actually motivated my mom to want to sponsor me at the university, which was a good one to start with.
While I was busy studying for my National diploma, I was also reading and registering for jamb, each one I wrote while I was in polytechnic was good but I wasn't given admission. I didn't feel it because I was still studying. I spent two years in polytechnic and I wrote jamb within that period but nothing good came out of it.
I'm proud of the decision I made towards my academics, I had always wondered if I had decided to rewrite the exam without chasing other dreams where I would have been by now🤔🤔
I never gave up on studies even when I saw my friends entering into the university, it actually motivated me to want to study which I did and I'm still doing. I never for once regret the actions or my decision towards my academics.
