I graduated with my PhD in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics in 2009. I remember a few nights before I had to submit my dissertation I had a complete meltdown. I was in a foreign country and far away from my immediate family. Luckily my PI is a Christian man and knew my Uncle. He called my Uncle and they both prayed with me in his office. It doesn't end there. After submitting my dissertation I was prepping for my oral defense in front of my colleagues. They had the chance to critique and make suggestions. It was a long and tiresome process. I was so stressed that I hadn't eaten that morning. After a few hours of going back and forth with my colleagues, I fainted. One of them said I dropped like a ton of bricks. They had to call an ambulance from the nearby hospital to check me out. I was so embarrassed that I refused and said I was ok. They checked my blood sugar and it was very low. My PI again, being the Christian man he is, insisted that I have my friend/colleague take me to the ER just to make sure I was ok, especially since I had hit my head pretty hard when I fainted. I went to the ER and they gave me fluids and released me a few hours later. Fortunately my actual defense went well and I passed! When I left the building that day, it felt like I could feel the sun shining again--a HUGE burden had been lifted. I was so traumatized by that degree that to this day I still have a hard time picking up/looking through my dissertation. You couldn't pay me enough to do that degree again!! But I'm happy I was able to accomplish a terminal degree in my lifetime.
Rachelle McKenzie hi, I just came across your comment.... I’m about graduating with my BSc in microbiology and want to get my MSc in Molecular Genetics as well and I’d love to gain some insight from you !
Thank you
"I was telling all the angels to beg Jesus"😂😂😭😂 I'm done
CRYING IN EXCHANGE RATE
looooooool too funny
Sounds like something I would do😭 We tank God for his mercy on us procrastinators mehn
Pulled an all nighter into submission day and guess what happened? The Turnitin platform stopped responding 10 minutes to my dissertation submission deadline. I continuously screamed JESUS so loud in the packed LIBRARY quiet area, all that was left was for me to roll on the floor dramatically from side to side to complete it (proper nollywood re-enactment LOL). Although i was very pleased with my grades in the end, the process showed me how much of a procrastinator and self-sabotaging perfectionist i can be.
Yet again, this is such an honest and useful video you put out. Well done Dimma!
Girlllll, Jesus himself sent you with this video. I'm currently doing my masters and I have a ton of assignments due this week. I'm dropping this laptop now. Gonna stop my procrastination and get stuff doneeee..lol thank you!
omo i have so many stories too. i'm Nigerian currently studying in North Cyprus for my under grad (BUS ADMIN). i had this mathematical course that made me shiver anytime it was mentioned and i made sure to organize my life before the exam but we were given so little time for 6 crazy questions that will take about 30 mins each but we were given 75 mins in total, amidst managing my time, guess WHAT! my calculator stopped and my heart with it, chai come and see multiplication of 600 x 400 with brain. i had to make my marks up in the final and i passed (and with a new calculator of course), GOD IS JUST WONDERFUL!!!
Candysmakeover LOL, EMU?
Damzy Keny nah, it's NEU
Thanks for this Dima! Someone definitely needs to do a PhD project on depression amongst international students!
I can so relate to this but I learned my lessons early. masters in the US is an average of 4 semesters, I spent my first semester crying, I arrived on the fourth week of lecture, most professors didn't want to sign me into their classes I had a month worth of assignments due. it was hell for me really. I look back and am proud of the growth I see in myself, I will definitely go back for my PhD. I feel like we don't talk about the cultural shock enough, people get depressed but would rather hide it or blame an evil witch in their family. thank you for sharing your experience Dimma.
I will be start my master degree soon , how many classes was considered full time in your school ?
Wow! A month late? You're the real G. I resumed on the first day of class, and this semester finished me. But like you said, I have three more semesters and I know they'll be better. Feels good to know that it's not just me. I've had to fight so much not to be depressed at certain periods where I just missed deadlines and all
Hey @@Jessie-ei9oy, it depends on your school. In mine, three classes (9 units) would be considered full time and international students can't drop below this
Glad you made it, I went to Warwick too, did my MBA (Warwick Business School) in the early 90's (I'm in my 50's now :))
Didn't have software to detect plagiarism back then so things weren't as strict - lucky us! Still I'll never forget having a brain freeze during one of my final papers - pulled an all-nighter and paid for it. Just about passed the dreaded Finance and Accounting! I must say I'm more a theologian than corporate guru nowadays. Wishing you God's blessings in every area of your life. Thoroughly enjoy your vlogs.
I feel your pain girl. I remember when I was taking my masters, and had to submit my final project (also like a dissertation). I had stayed up all night into the wee hrs of the morning putting last minute touches. Ok oh, save. After 2hrs of sleep, woke up to submit, Oya document where are you? Computer said it couldn't locate it. I searched all over the computer no luck. See crying, my nose dripping, the whole 9yds. Begging God, asking him to forgive me. Lol I was able to retrieve the document(on time to submit) with the help of youtube. God bless Una oh! Lol I'd have paid that youtuber all my savings at that moment. lol
I love you for this. Was in Scotland for a year doing my masters as well. I am Dominican from the Caribbean and did masters in Environment and Sustainable Development...... University of Glasgow. You are narrating my story. Imagine only Girl from this area of the world doing this degree ahh and though I made friends they weren't in my school. I cried, I was depressed, I cried every semester until the day I submitted dissertation. I called home once and bawled my eyes out for my poor mother who, alas could do nothing but say everything will work out. It is rough doing a Masters in the UK, seriously rough. But I thank God for all his Blessings, he sent me angels to guide me through cause there were points I felt I was the most dumb person ever. I would do it again though now wiser.
Lol, procrastination is a disease that everyone is battling, including me! 😫😫 Great Story Time Video,👍🏾thanks for sharing your story 😊
Literally said "Thank you Jesus" when you said there was a long queue to submit 😂
I studied the exact same course entrepreneurship and innovation management at university of Nottingham (China campus) . It was a wonderful experience , although I struggled with adjusting to all the essay writing and referencing. Silly me decided to go home to Lagos for summer and write my dissertation from home. 🤦🏻♀️ Between my panic attacks (because I had a lot of last minute work) corrections and finding someone who was still on campus in china to help me print and submit the hard copy at faculty , I didn't sleep for the last 2 days before submission. Coffee was my best friend. Thank God for seeing us through.
OMG..😁😊😊...Thissss has to be my FAVVVVV VIDEO 😂...The thrilll, suspense, and humour!!!..biko be doing more of this😂😂..and your 201% right about the depression 😂😂.
Looooool i submitted my final dissertation at Oxford at 10.59
Time stamp
Submission was 11.00
😌 i feel your pain
Law school in the US, Legal Writing final paper, submission time stamp 10:54 after I realized the deadline was not 10:59 as I initially thought!!!
Deadline 10:55!
You're in good company Submitted my dissertation 12:55PM (PDT) with a deadline of 1PM. Whew!!! Nobody can pay me enough to repeat that phase of my life. 'I'm glad it's over' is an understatement.
Dimma, this is your funniest vlog ever. The crying part got me 😂😂😂
This is one of my fave videos and you are literally my fave youtuber. I am currently doing a law degree in the U.K as well and the amount of pressure we are under is so overwhelming. Like I wish they gave me heads up when I was applying for Visa. This same procrastination happened to me with one of my courses and what was left was the referencing and I totally forgot to realise that referencing in that course was totally different from the referencing in the other courses I took that year. I thought I could freestyle it. But that was how I was doing the deadline came and met me there and I lost 5 marks. Since then I concluded that Procrastination is of the devil.
Hey hey! 😂😩 "Crying in Igbo" "Crying in Hausa" "Crying in common". My spirit felt this pain o. Lekwa tears. And parents will stay calling during your darkest hour; it's like they know something is up 🤣
You are 100% right cos am in a nursing here in America and its like a medical school in Nigeria.....no room for a C which is 70%...and to think the whites in the class a super fast with everything😂but thank God. You just have to be on your toes everyday! Don't procrastinate!!!
Winnie Floberg you are so right. In my school you have to pass with 80%. You will read your eyes out
"Crying in Hausa" and "Crying in Igbo" 😂😂😂😂😂
the depression is reeeeaaallll! I found it so difficult to make friends on my course so I was always lost.
this vlog was too funny!!! 😂😂😂
I have stories for days.. currently doing my undergrad in Canada; chemical engineering. to say the struggle is real is an understatement. sleepless nights, lots of tears, panic attacks, days when I feel like giving up and once in a while a sprinkle of happiness..
I'm going to my last year this fall and absolutely cannot wait. I have baba God to thank for keeping me sane and seeing me through.
I can agree with you on getting depressed. I have been in the U.K for almost 10 years. Even with my long presence, i get depressed and i got so bad about three years. New Research done actually shows that postgraduate students tend to get depressed and it is getting increasingly high. I'm happy you scaled through.
SIs!!!!!! I don't normally comment, but this has to be one video that will make a difference in my final year of uni next year. I'm that person that leaves it last minute and I am definitely taking your advise on board! Congrats on your 1st class! I pray my university story will end with a first class too in 2018 xx
Oh my this is so true! Just finished my masters three months ago in a UK university. I totally relate :)
Thanks for this information Dimma. I am about to start off my Masters at the University of Aberdeen in the Department of Public health. At least I know what to expect when I arrive over there. I'm a very terrible procrastinator. I probably have to start working on that now so it does not become an issue for me over there. Once again, thanks for the enlightenment.
Oh my goodness, tell me about those submissions hours!!! Just finished my MBA this past May here in the US and I have struggled for a year and a half. I have wrote so many research papers, with all the stress... But on graduation day I was so proud wearing my gown!!! Thanks for sharing your experience... cheers.
"I went home and slept for two days" that just had me die!!!! hahahaha sorry dear...been there done that!
Weep in common!! 😫😫😅😂🤣🤣 this brings back so many uni memories
I left my dissertation for last minute too...and on the morning of the due date I had a lot to change. I have never cried so much in my life 😭.
I feel that you're exactly narrating ma own story 😌I'm a Gambian doing ma master's in GIS in the UMBC in the US.. but guess what! the struggle is real..too much work and I always cry wen I'm not satisfy with ma work, assignments etc. but thank God I'm catching up
You'll be alright.
Ida Badjie UMBC in da house
Fine Cameroon Gurl lol😁
Ida Badjie UMBC here too lol
ya schooling outside Nigeria is not really easy I went true hell and the worst part is that it end up affecting my GP am so angry and depress I thank God am going home soon not easy at all especially when you have to do everything on your own no one to help or talk to 😢😔 I cry almost everyday
magi lilian same here with me darl... but we'll be fine, trust me😊
Doing a foundation course before your masters is a very good idea, if you havent experienced western education standards before.
Loved the weeping part. Great story. You look beautiful as usual.
yesss darling. give me life. i am in nursing school right now. i know how you feel.
The depression is real. The worst is you just have to wing it. I stayed away from school for 3 weeks! crying, God knows i was ready to get my one way ticket and go back home.
chaiii...I laughed and almost fell from my chair...Projects and papers here ehn are very thorough. I remember this English analysis class i took in my college freshman year. Thats how they said I should analyze one greek drawing like that that i didnt even understand, so I went on google, researched and wrote a paper on it. I actually did a lot to understand the drawing and then write on it but of course most of the details that went into the analysis could be linked to other online sources and i did not now cite my work "properly" but it wasn't intentional. I was a freshman, missed my orientation, didn't come to America with the plan of failing to become a Doctor so I definitely did all I knew to do. Thats how the professor ran the paper through plagiarism check and it came out with over 50% plagiarism....😱 . This guy called me after class and said normal procedure is to report to the english department and then also report to my biology department and disciplinary action would be taken.....as he was talking, the tears were building up and in the most innocent voice ever, i told this guy that it wasn't intentional. I had missed my orientation, the rules of the assignment weren't clear enough, I begged him for second chance while still praying in my mind. What will i tell my mother who hadn't even returned back to Nigeria....Thankfully, he sent me an email saying He would let me do the assignment again and that he understands and I should just be careful in my future classes. Nne, now ehn, if you give me any paper to write, the citation page must be thorough, i must run it through my own plagiarism test like 10 times, e no concern me. Its not easy out here in this streets oooo...lol
This story made me laugh so much. Memories!!
Good timing too, I was thinking just two days ago about going after a seconds masters degree. Glad to know my experience with depressions wasn't singular. I really struggled my first go around.
I don't understand why people disliked this video, this is serious life lessons here. Thank you so much dimma!
girllll, you really tried it!! I'm over here having a panic attack imagining myself in that situation lol. god just had to teach you a lesson one good time lol
Khai, I went 2 weeks late to school and then got a plagiarism problem from the first assignment. They never warn you on the struggles going outside Naija to study.
I am busy with my dissertation right now and I have till December to submit my final draft, and boy the procrastination is at its peek right now but your story just gave me a wake up call. Thank you
The "what will I say" in igbo cracked me up so much 😂😂😂😂😂. Ehya. The cab guy is so nice. If it's in Nigeria, the man will just be saying, "e no get anything we go fit do oo, just dey pray" 😂😂😂
omg I'm laughing soo hard at your crying episode. Grad school traumatized me so much that I don't plan on getting anymore education. I'm good!
Praise God, Dimma! I love this story and your personality. I'm in the US, born and raised and I will just be starting a BA program, no stories yet, but please pray for me. Congratulations on receiving your Masters, I humbly pray I will receive mines too one day. ❤❤❤U
I'm so happy i watched this video today, my project is due for Friday and I'm making last minutes plans already, I'm totally concluding my work before Tuesday, i better get all the sleepless nights now before it's too late. Thanks for sharing💗
i really love African people they have beautiful curly hair and baby hairs on forehead ... and im the only one who love baby hairs on forehead... many people don't like them i don't know why .but im crazy over baby hairs on forehead 😍..... lots of love from Indonesia dimma 😘
my mom actually joined you in crying as she listened to this. I didn't know she was even listening sef. Nne ndoh ooo. thanks for this video. it's an advice for literally everything in life really. quit the procrastination...
buhhh...I work well under pressure sometimes sha ooo...
Aww... don't cry mommy. Man but I also empathize with her pain
Great story Dimma. Excellent advice. When I was in Graduate School (Masters) I hung with the girls that worked hard. Unfortunately, many of the black girls didn't like me for not studying with them. I did once and they weren't serious. I was working two jobs and had a student loan. I did not come to play or make friends. I did share my notes with these girls and help them. They were still my sisters. So glad I'm done with school.
A lot of the things you were saying are so true of uni life. It brought back a lot of memories for me lol
Oh my goodness! My heart was beating so fast. What a suspenseful story. I'm glad that you and fatima made it.
I am still traumatized from my master's degree experience and I graduated in 2015....(sigh)....tfs
Hello Dimma,
I enjoyed watching this, I can relate with this 100% and I appreciate your honesty. :-)
You have a great sense of humour, I love your videos!
Your point on depression is so true. The worst part of it all is that those back home are mostly concerned about the GPA. Okay, so my first point of college depression was being thrown in a state in the US where I had no family, friends, or even one acquaintance. I was a teenager who had never been that far away from home alone. My mum and older brother dropped me off on a Wednesday evening and left that same day, making it clear that they weren't going to visit until the day of my graduation lol. A year later, my brothers left the US and went back to 9ja, meaning that I was now truly alone and had nowhere to spend hols. Then switching from arts to sciences was another source of depression. My dream was to become a lawyer, so I never took chemistry and physics classes in secondary school, and let's just say Math didn't fancy me. Fast forward to my first year of college in the US... I'm a Neuroscience major now. Chemistry, physics, calculus, biology, you name them; they're all requirements for my major. I was so depressed in my first two years that I had to open up to my parents (I'm not good at expressing emotions, so opening up is a big deal). I told them I wasn't happy and that I wanted to drop out and go back to 9ja (this was the summer after 2nd year and before 3rd year). I had a whole ass plan B, fr fr. My parents couldn't believe I was unhappy because every semester, my GPA would go up. Their logic was that if I am unhappy, then my grades ought to be negatively affected. But that's really not how it works. Yes, I'm doing well in school; graduating next month even, but that doesn't mean I'm happy. You don't know how many mental breakdowns it takes for me to get A's and B's. I quit trying to explain to them and decided to suffer in silence jare. Shebi it will end in roughly two weeks?!
Thanks for this video. Writing mine now at a very slow pace. But this is definitely a wake up call. Thanks dimma. You don't know what this means to me.
Oh dear, speaking from experience, you need to pick up your speed and have it all done at least 2 days before the dateline. You will feel so much peace, instead of the stress I went through during that time. Good luck to you.
Thank you dear.. going for a post graduate and dis video helped me to know what to expect❤️
Oh Lord 😂 This is the video I didn't know I needed this evening. I was stressed on your behalf but also had a good laugh.
😂😂😂😂😂 Dimmah gosh when the story time started I couldn't 😂😂😂😂😂😂 oh the common weeping had me in knots ...Its funny now but I am pretty sure if I was there I would be weeping with you too and seeing those thousands of pounds 😐 ..I am currently completing my honours degree with Regent Business School (it's a year) and I have started doing my research for my dissertation already,also doing every single assignment in my academic calendar book first assignment is due on 4th September and I have read soo much material for reference .I ve also noted the paraphrasing tip there ,oh my how super glad I am to have watched this .It has just encouraged me to up my game and also showed me that procrastination is not my academic friend at all...Can't let my dollars go to waste .
This video, wow, so revealing. The story was really funny yet i felt your anguish. You are a good story teller.
Thank you Dimma For this video. I did my under grad in nursing in UWI Trinidad and Tobago (Caribbean) but I must say I can relate to the difficulties you faced and how different studying in Nigeria is from studying abroad. Also, being on your toes from the first day is the way to go which I think most of us realize very late. I missed getting first class honors by only few points which I'm sure was because of poor self esteem and worrying so much about fees rather than focusing on my studies. You know when I started concentrating more on my studies I noticed I was far better than most people in my class but I couldn't understand why I was just scared initially. Keep up the good work. Keep doing you.
Chai! Diaris God ohh! Thank God you made it and passed with flying colours.
Me sef my dissertation is due in September and I'm already regretting all the times I have procrastinated.
You look gorgeous as always and more story times please x
Thank you very much for posting this! I'm from US and studying Masters at LSE and having similar experience of culture shock and I'm working full-time so assignment are often done last minute. Studying abroad has produced tradeoffs I wasn't prepared to make and the cost compounds it all.
You are very smart woman. You have totally explained all of the concepts of a graduate student. I believe most graduates become depressed after graduation may be due to lack of quality employment (unemployment vs underemployed). Business is not a field for everyone tough skin is needed and cognitive skill to critically think about strategies to overpower the competition and maintainna stabilized business.
I am in such awe of how much I can relate to you. From makeup, hair, comedy and now academics!!! I watched my 1st video of you with my boyfriend and it was so funny and informative and I was like, 'I like this girl, she gives me the feels.'
I like how authentically black you are, how smart you are *sniff sniff*. Just wanted to say, I think I love you man. Keep serving us life.
it was really his grace that saw you both through...
When you said you got a 78 and that's an A, I was like chai!!! These people are lucky oh. I schooled in the US and had to get at least a 90 to have an A-. The struggle is real! And procrastination is a disease. I'm grateful to God that I still graduated top of my class. Thanks for sharing, was scary and funny at the same time.
I think their grading scale is different from the U S.
I AM GOING THROUGH THAT HELL FIRE RYT NOW......im at queen mary uni of london and dissertation is due next month......i like that part when you said you see your fathers money passing...i see that everywhere........but the victory after keeps me motivated..
Its like you just told me my life story. This is what happened to me during my Undergraduate defense. The good thing that saved me was that there was a queue. Another one was when I wanted to write IELTS. My centre was at one hotel in Ikoyi. I live in Amuwo Odofin. I left home like 45 min to the actual exam time. It was when we were on that Ikoyi bridge that I realised that I wasn't with my international passport. God saved me that there was a driver at home and my mum was at home. I called my mum immediately. First of all she started shouting and reminding me of how disorganised I am. I was telling her that she can scold me later but now she should send the other driver to come and meet me at the hotel with my passport. Where devil almost caught me is that there was traffic and that driver at home drives so slowly and doesn't know short cuts. That was why I didn't want to use him in the first place. When the driver that took me dropped me off, he went to meet the other one that was coming from home. I got to the hall. It was a speaking test. I had to just explain myself to those coordinating the exam that I forgot my passport and someone has gone to pick it up for me. I sat there waiting telling others to go in until they finally brought my passport. Surprisingly when I came back home nobody scolded me. I was so happy. Everybody just wanted to know how it went.
Until now, I still leave works till the last minute. I feel I perform better under pressure. But I need to change though.
Lmao happened to my friend when we were in the uk. Wasn't really a uni experience tho. She was going back to Nigeria for Christmas and that day we decided to go shopping in peckham lol plus she wanted some new slay to take back home. The plan was to be back by 5 and get her luggage to heathrow. lol but no oh, we kept buying things and got back late. We had two hours to her boarding time when we got back and with all the rush to the train station, we missed the last train for the day. Abbeywoodto heathrow by traij was about 2hours plus so we already knew we were screwed. lol twas like Christmas eve and trains stop running by 7 or 8, cant remember. We tried to get a cab and cabs were saying they cant go because twas Christmas eve and they wanted to be with their family. lol baby girl sat on the floor and started to roll and cry and speak in tongues. And started imagining what her father would say once she misses that flight, lol which actually paid off cus one of her townspeople heard the language and thats how our messiah came and we got to the airport just in time. It always works out in the end and yes moral is to never procrastinate. Do the right thing at the right time lol.
😂😂😂
what an experience dear. I did my MBA in Birmingham Uni. I was pregnant. was living with an uncooperative sister. I needed no one to tell me to do my assignments and stuff on time. cuz of d pregnancy ish. All d same I had a good result *commendation* next to merit.
your so right my sister, Education in this part of the world is really difficult.
I'm just a few months into my masters program in Canada and I feel like I've experienced everything you've talked about. This is so real, I can literally count how many days I've gone to bed without crying since I got here. It even goes beyond the school stress to life generally. It's comforting to watch and read comments that other people also have gone through similar experiences and scaled through. I wished I watched this video earlier but then again, I doubt I would have understood the gravity at that time. I have so much to say about this issue but I'm hoping for better days ahead, constantly fighting depression each day. My conclusion is that, without God, there's no chance for survival and don't envy people abroad especially in school/masters.
Oh Dimma, between the Somkele vibes and the brutal honesty, you are just ha-mazing! Thank you for sharing will really help me on my master's journey. x
😂😂😂😂
"School fees dangling"
I laughed like mad.
Turnitin oooooooo! Its a must here in Babcock for all students, undergrad to Phd! Truly its sweet to say "Am doing my Masters" bhet mehnnnnn....its work! Dimma I can totally relate!
I am just short of words...you just said it all, I thank God I am picking up, thank you so much for the advice through this video.
I really need to stop procrastinating.. I always feel I work well under pressure
Call upon the name of the Lord and be saved.
Hello Dimma! I graduated from Masters in Canada last year, so I completely understand your experience, particularly the depressing side of it. Coming from Nigeria, it is overwhelming studying abroad, which is typically fast-paced academic environment. I would say I am very lucky not to experience the depression though. Thanks to God for surrounding me with great mentors (black and white) who helped me integrate and made the impact negligible. In my opinion, the only cause for depression here is the limited human interaction, unlike Naija. However, my very friendly and outgoing personality seemed to have stood in for me. Anyway, happy you eventually sailed through and are doing fine now.
haha that reminds me off when my last paper for my masters I believe I was up for like almost 72 hrs putting those finishing touches! thankfully submission was all online
I feel so bad for the way I laughed at your trauma,i will remember this story when I get to uni
Dimma thanks for sharing this story. Lots of lessons here. Also your makeup is gorgeous and you're too funny!
Thank you. I'm also a last minute "work well under pressure person but I'm having so much trouble with my dissertation. This advice really helped. I'm taking study leave next week to try and push as much as I can. fingers crossed
Crying in igbo and Fatima crying in hausa LMAO I can actually hear it!
currently doing my msc in the Netherlands..hardest months of my life cant wait to be back in Ghana!!!
Lol😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂u cracked me out with the crying part, so sorry you had dat bad experience, but a story that will help other...new sub here love u already...
The school fees should be more than £10k plus room and board. I think studying in U.K. Is a waste of money in terms of prospect. Canada is better. US can be worth it. Then you can consider one of those EU countries were education is free.
you look extra gorgeous in this video. The experience sounds like stress, glad you could make it through 😊
I can relate. Currently working on the final parts of my dissertation to beat my mid-August deadline. I had actually put off my abstract, dedication and proof-reading. I will definitely get on it ASAP. Big Big thank you for this
*goes to do my work*
So glad you prevailed in the end Dimma!
Thanks for the tips but girl didn't i laugh? I was in tears
I haven’t done my masters yet but I’m glad I watched this video I will choose a course I can use. When I did my BSC I didn’t complete my work last minute too it wasn’t funny. I even cried it’s a long story I told them I wanted to repeat.
sooo true. this is amazing...thank you sooooosooooo much for the advice especially speaking on depression and the need for prayer
My dear , I grew up in Guinea where we only speak French and my parents made a decision to send me abroad in an English speaking country all alone .New language new technics 😩 I almost died 😭 But Thank God I made it trough and I'm graduating in August. I have so many juicy stories to share when I go back home 😂 . The experience wasn't fun at all but well worth it 😊
I absolutely loved this video! I went to the University of Birmingham for my second degree and you would not believe that on the day a take-home exam was due because of the amount of pressure I was under, I ended up submitting the first draft of my work which was incomplete instead of the final draft! I only realized this an hour after submitting. Imagine
I can relate to what you said. I did my masters degree in London. The course being a year you have no time to adjust. I spent so many nights at the library just to catch up and i had to work as well. It was really tough for me. When you remember the amount of tuition fee you paid you will be forced to work hard by force. But its all good at last.
"Going to the abroad". Laugh wan kill me die. On a serious note, very good video. Very helpful advice.
Omg funniest video of yours I'd ever seen 😂😂😂😂😂 love how your recent videos show your personality 😬
This is the funniest shit I have watched today! 😂😂😂. Someone needs to start Okada business in the UK for real. 😂
