Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -
Image
This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

Welcome to October

By -

Those moments will come when you will ask yourself a lot of questions, when the feeling of tiredness will set in, when you've worked hard enough and feel like the life in you is being choked out. You just want to fast forward to your ultimate destination and end the journey. You're tired of the stress, you're tired of working hard and making those efforts. But deep inside You, you get fulfilment from what you do, you feel great and positive about yourself whenever you do those things. Your dream lies in them. You're only just tired. It's normal. You may rest a little, but you don't give up! You don't give in to distraction and that desire to just get there immediately. You should keep working, keep believing, keep improving, keep learning, keep growing. The truth is that what you're doing isn't hard. It isn't difficult. It's just challenging. It's also fun if you look properly at it and if you decide to get the fun out of it....

Image
I am a member of "The Let's Talk About Series" community. I'll be sharing notes from Tobi Afolabi (TASpeaks) on Comportment and Etiquette, a lesson delivered this year, in the month of February. Let's Talk About Series is a personal and career development discussion platform that discuss diverse topics to help boost people's productivity and build personal confidence. They are passionate about self discovery, and believe the strife for personal development helps in adding value to one's life; creating opportunities and setting priorities for the areas that make them most effective. You can check out the community on Facebook. ----- Tobi Afolabi: If I were to ask what we love most about Pastor E. A. Adeboye, I am likely to get comments such as he is humble, generous, polite, well dressed, cultured... If I ask same for Buhari, Dangote, Steve Harris, Jimi Tewe and many more, I am equally likely to get a similar feedback. Doesn't it amaze you that we...

Our Arrival time will differ, but the Destination remains Sure

By -
Image
Often times, we are pressured to catch up with latest trends. We see the seeming progress of others and we say in our hearts "Oh my God, I am so backwards." We tend to forget that we all have our timing; that we have our individual season of celebration. It is true that we can create the future we desire. But even if we all apply relevant principles required for us to get to that desired future, the truth remains that our arrival time will still differ. When there was a call for all animals to come in their pairs into Noah's Ark, the dog, cat, tiger, lion, ostrich and every other animals got to the ark. The fast paced animals definitely must have arrived before the others. BUT THE ARK WASN'T CLOSED BY GOD... Until, the millipedes, centipedes, snails and other crawling animals got there. In our quest for Success and a better life, so many will say EUREKA in the morning - If you are a single female reading this post, and you are above 27 years, you probably can rememb...

The Snails among Us

By -
Image
That the snail does not bleed red does not mean it has no blood. That someone does not express their sorrow, hurt, loss and sadness often or in obvious manner does not mean they have no such feelings. It will be good today, if you look around you and be more observant of folks around you. They might mask it with smiles, with hardwork or with a straight face, but nevertheless be kind enough to be helpful and compassionate. You can never tell if they are in pain, if they are experiencing sadness or if they need help. Do not be self absorbed, or assume people are always okay, as long as they are human...they are liable to pain, hurt and depression. Regardless of the position or name they bear... Doctor, Professor, Chief, Pastor, etcetera. Regardless of what they do or effort they put at wiping others tears off. Remember, not all animals bleed red. Not everyone hurting and in pain will express it in a manner common to everyone. Be kind, watchful and compassionate! By: Olusola ...

I Conquered Masturbation, You Can too!

By -

I started masturbating when I was exactly 14 years old. It was such an experience I never believed I could break off from. I grew up in a 'ghetto-like' place, which exposed me to different kinds of persons and experience. I had to run errands for my Grandmother and in the process, stumbled on neighbours watching movies with Adult content and sometimes saw some of them in the act, and because they felt that I was a small boy, the girls either didn't bother to cover themselves leaving their bodies bare as they attended to me, or continued in the act and never cared to pay attention to who it was that was around. Some of the ladies around who were not married would then touch my private part and tell me things they would have done with me if I was older. These were seeds that were being sown in my mind, and unknown to me that it would later lead me into a deep mess. The kind of friends I had both in school and home were those from the privileged class who had access to th...
