Work In Progress


Spring has finally sprung! I smell the blossoming of beautiful flowers all around. It's indeed a beautiful time of the year.

And yes I know I have been missing in action for a while but it is only because am back in school studying Human Resources Management. And yes it's a big deal since it's a management course and all.
But am glad to say am doing well and I have gone half-way. I won't lie it's been stressful and challenging but like they say "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger".

This course has indeed made me stronger. First of all I never liked maths right from day 1 but because we had to take an elective in Management Accounting last term I am now more comfortable with numbers. Which is a good thing because I need basic accounting in my everyday life. I also took another borrowed course in Law and I enjoyed it. As I participated in an  arbitration panel and I handled the opening argument and I got good feedback from my teacher and course mates. I started wondering whether I missed my calling and maybe I was suppose to be a lawyer. I also participated in a Staffing Interview simulation in order to recruit a Project Administrator for Sodexo company. It was  a big deal because as it was worth almost thirty percent of my grade and executed it successfully with my teammates.

There are some upsides to this my new phase as I have about 8 Nigerian course mates in my new program. All friendly and I can relate with them based on our shared backgrounds as well as the fact that 98 percent of the class members are international students a huge contrast from my previous program were International students constituted only about 10 percent of the class.

Last month I celebrated my birthday with friends. It was the first time I had celebrated my birthday in Canada. My new and old friends played a huge role as they came out en masse for my birthday dinner at Mandarin in Downtown Toronto. I was really excited because it was huge milestone in my life. That been said I will like to use this opportunity to thank all my friends that came out, you guys made my day.

Anyway just wanted to drop this here because it's been a while and I have missed you guys. Talk to you soon!
