ITS NOT WHAT I WATCHED ON NETFLIX
To those who have yet to experience university life,it feels like big unknown thing,understandably I was nervous about what is going to be like when I arrive ,and this isn't helped by many misconception about university experience.Mind you me I had watched some university serious on Netflix and trust me you I thought my life at the university was going to run smooth like the lifes of those students I watched on Netflix.
My first experience in the university is that i was so anxious to make friends when I was new to the university environment,I didn't know everyone,it sometimes felt as though everyone was more switched on than me or I'd say they were somehow better of making friends than me,It was so hard for me to make friends unfortunately I ended up having no friend till now, staying with no friends ain't for the weak though having nobody to talk nor chat with its hectic anyway I've leant that in a hard way and am now used to staying with no friends.
A party time job is often a necessity this is one of my best experience as a university student,If you manage to get through university never having had to take a part time job then you are one of the lucky one's,with school fees at an all time high,and cost living soaring,its financially more difficult times for students than ever .
Another experience as university student i got to learn that awkward social situations are as much as a part university life as they are anywhere,the older I get the more I realize that awkward situation are facts of life whether you are at home there is just no escaping them,I came to university thinking my life is gonna be soft en smooth saying freedom here I come,soft life I here I come not knowing staying home was too way better than staying in the university,when I thought I was gonna enjoy buh now am suffering the most going broke with no food in the house,no eating three meals per day as a luhya this a big punishment.let me tell you friends probably my young sisters and brothers who are yet to enroll ,don't go to university imagining that it will be a 100% positive social experience,huh its not always as university rosy as the stock images of happy students on university posters and adverts,but come to think of it "hua wanasmile nini kwa hizo posters?"nikama hua hawainami lunch ipite".
As a university student I experienced a lot of staffs,they're just some people you get along with less well than you do with others.In a class you cannot interact same with everybody like for instance I do interact with boys in my class than girls,
To add on,there's this thing called romantic encounter with someone this is the worst experience ever,one of my prayer request is let not my younger sisters go through what I went through in the name campus relationship some love Bullshits ,but anyway I'll tell those young ladies who are joining to concentrate on education love is not for the weak.but I thank God because like life in general ,has the potential of all kinds of faux pas and social awkwardness the trick is not to let them get to you deeply or spend days agonising over them,destracting you from your studies.
University isn't about partying and drinking every fridays and weekends as some people think. I spend my weekends and friday nights in CU praying and having some beautiful worship extravaganza ,and this is also one of the reasons I've never had a friend in campus am such a boring friend,I don't do outs,I don't drink and I don't party so probably am placed under "kienyeji"category and nobody wanna have a boring kienyeji as a friend though.
Lastly there are also some positive experience I've had in university like I gatt to lean things I didn't know like handling a camera and also operating it,I've also leant to stay away from my parents something I thought it will be hard for me as a lastborn,but honestly the life we living in this campus institutions its far from what were told by our highschool teachers,far from the campus series I watch on Netflix,we were never told it will come a time we will be surviving with water lunch time.
KUINAMA is now our lunch motto,and its not funny though this is the worst thing me as a luhya am going through.
Good job
