Distractions

             We all know that when we really want to be serious with what really concerns us there always distractions that always come up to derail us. It is at this point that discipline matters and one has to stick to their goals despite the type of distractions that come on the way. In colleges there are all types of distractions one could ever imagine of. Every student in the world will bear me witness that, the last week to exams when there is plenty and plenty of stuff to do there always comes up thing to derail an individual from their original plan of reading all the course content covered that semester and writing the best essays ever written by any student.

            The common type of distraction that students come across and should avoid them by all means include over preparing for the exams as we all know that too much of anything is poisonous therefore enough revision is good to go. Useless group work sessions that only waste time in the name of discussing challenging academics and brainstorming on good essay writing tips. Social media site that is face book, twitter and you tube have as well become top on the list of distracters. Some students are addicts of the sites barely log out form the site despite the exams beckoning. Movies are another catch for most students as well as partying and drinking, a thing most students turn to when they are nervous and they really need to cool their nerves. Girls and chit has proved to be inseparable for ages now, it really costs them time and sometimes the friendship itself. For sure distractions are many and of different types, but we all have control over everything in our lives and the answer lies in our arms.

Failing In Class

          Every student is a witness that sometimes we spend a lot of time in the library turning volumes of books, sacrifice our sleep to read the class notes, form discussion groups in order to handle the challenging class work, read thoroughly for continuous assessments and final exams, write the best essays all in the effort to attain good grades at the end of it all. Good grades are however not the results sometimes we get shocking marks and one cannot help thinking that the teacher was biased or just did not mark the paper correctly. Poor results are very disappointing, they kills a student’s morale. However just like all days are not Fridays sometimes we fail exams amid the effort put into it. Students are forced to sit for supplementary papers or re do the exams again.

            Every student should bear it in mind that there has been several students who have been through the same scenario but walked out to fit stronger. All a student needs to do is to find out how the fail or the poor marks will affect their final grade and do anything possible to counter the poor grades. Every student should believe in themselves and go for greater heights.

            By going back to the drawing board and try to spot where the mistake came in. It could be that they didn’t read the questions carefully or give the answers correctly. Probably their essays were not good enough to scoop the required marks. After identifying the problems they should do all I their potential to avoid failing again. Bother their professors with questions to make sure they get the subject content clearly, choose the group discussion members wisely and ensure that they benefit from them significantly. Failing is part of as student life but failing again is not allowed in academics.

           At a young age every young child is advised to study hard and make it to the university. All through the kindergarten to junior school then to high school the same music is sang to our ears. Even the most prominent people and professors all started with a college degree and then furthered their studies to be who they are. Society has learnt the importance of educated people in the society because they act as agents of change to the society. It is through a lot of hard work that a college degree is obtained. Early mornings, dedication to books, sacrifice, a lot of laboratory work, pages of reports, essays, frequent exams and assessments, other college challenges especially financial where students sacrifice their own time to offer writing services and so much more are what it entails to be called a graduate.

            A college degree is of great benefits to an individual, academically in that they are in better position in the academics, personally, socially, financially, intellectually etc. A degree holder is always marketable compared to a certificate holder therefore they are accepted in the market pretty fast. Opportunities for the graduates are many since most employers will always go for people with good papers. It is out of the demand in the market that they secure themselves good job and consequently a good reward of their hard through good salaries. They therefore lead an admirable life. They also have an upper hand whenever they want to further their studies. A college degree gives an individual some sense of pride and a lot of self confidence

            Therefore, hard work eventually pays and enables individuals to live their admired lives. We are different and sometimes it takes some people more time to pursue their dreams but with dedication and persistence it is achievable.

Lessons Learnt in College

            College is a great part of life; a lot of lessons are learnt. In high school it’s all another home only that instead of parents there are teachers. It’s more like a home extension, the high school kids are handled with great care and they are treated like very fragile eggs. College life is an eye opener of the life a head. Every student learns to live with other people from different backgrounds and accommodate different personalities.

            It is in college that we realize that the clock is ticking pretty fast and we need to be ready for the future. It’s here that the importance of education begins to be seen. When the reality dawns a student has no choice but attend classes punctually, write  essays, revise for their exams accordingly and slowly by slowly a student’s changes from the young teenager to a focused student who views life’s differently. College life equips students in with social skills.

            An individual also becomes responsible in their lives. If they can take care of themselves, they can also take care of other people as well. Time management is also another positive lesson learnt from college. It is through proper time management that a successful life is attained. Financial management is as well another major lesson learnt by students. They are able to work on a budget and choose priorities right. All of these lessons have great impact on a student's life in the future.

            Learning proper writing skills and reading widely equips student knowledge and opens up the mind for a better future. Essay writers who start writing at an early age make very good writers in the future. They make very good editors of magazines and newspapers as well as very good orators. These writers could be doing this for fun at first but later it is can be a very good source of income. There is a lesson to be learnt in everything an individual does.

Graduation Day

            It is a day eagerly awaited by all the students in all the colleges. After a long journey of many ups and downs the crowning day is surely a day that is really anticipated for. Dressed up in the best suites for the men and the short skirts for the ladies and the long priest like gowns students sit down at the graduation square awaiting their names to be read out and be handed with their certificates. Since day one in college the many early mornings a student has to forgo their sleep, turn volumes of books in the library, research for essays, going through academic probation, the disappointments in exams and so forth. At the end of the day there is a reason to smile. However this day is accompanied by some fear of the unknown. It is normal for every individual to have some butterflies in their stomachs when they don’t know about tomorrow.

            This day is marked by a lot of joy and jubilation for the good work done. It involves a lot of partying and having fun in the best way possible. For some it marks the end of the long boring lectures and the demanding essay writing tasks and assignments. For some it’s just a stop along the way to after which they board the bus again for a master’s program or for further studies.

            The market today is very demanding and requires people with good papers and who understand the course content. The debate on the worth of college degrees is continuing and it is clear that a college degree is just a stepping board whereby further studies are of great importance. Thanks to technology, nowadays further studies can be acquired at an individual’s comfort and pace. Therefore the graduation day which is a finishing marks the beginning of a new race.

Sense of Belonging

            I am an avid reader of books, and so it goes without much fuss that I have across so many things or I have learnt so many things in my life courtesy of the umpteen books I have read. Ever since I was little, I have always known how important books are to the life of a person. Despite the fact that I take a very challenging course in campus-medicine-I always average a total of three books a week. That basically comes down to reading one book every two days. The ratio is considerably higher when I am home for summer holidays or when I am on internship.

            Other than reading I am also a fan of essay writing-I worked for an essay writing service before I joined campus-even though my course means that I get very little time to pursue that talent that I obviously possess. One thing that I have learnt from my love of books (and also from what the different authors that I have interacted with in the course of my life) is that a person’s family is the best thing that could ever happen to him or her and so despite a person’s schedule, one should always find time to be with his family. It means so much, even though many people never realize that.

            I like to think that my fellow campus mates are the most affected as far as this is concerned because they are just too busy to interact with members of their family. If they actually do interact, then this normally takes a very short time that there is virtually no time to have a sense of belonging or build up the feeling of camaraderie that should exist among relatives when they meet. This is not cool at all and I would advise my fellow mates to work on it.

A Reading Culture

            When I was growing up, a person that loved reading story-books and novels was often considered classy. It was the in-thing and we all looked forward to developing such a habit, if we didn’t have it already. As the days slowly ebbed away however, during which time I had personally developed a good reading culture, I painfully realized that the world doesn’t consider a reading culture as the best thing that could happen to it. As I write this today, it is factual that a kid would rather watch a movie rather than read the book equivalent. I can’t explain how it all began, (for all I care to know I don’t want to ever know how it began), but I know somehow that somewhere along the way our beautiful world lost a sense of direction.

            I have read umpteen essays from different essay writers but I have never gotten the exact reason why things turned out so. In any case, nothing anybody can ever tell me as concerns to reading can ever be enough an explanation as to why campus students don’t like reading at all. It just doesn’t add up that the people who are supposed to be the perfect example or illustration of the essence of reading don’t have a passion for books. If you were to ask me, I would freely tell you that campus students spend more time watching movies than reading.

            That is very unfortunate and I will never condone it for the rest of my life because I am one guy who is aware of the essence of reading. A reading culture is the best thing one can ever develop in his life. As much as I am not totally against watching movies, it is true that a book gives you much more than a movie can ever give you. At this juncture I would like to congratulate those who concur with me and they are avid readers too; keep it up.
