CONSEQUENCES OF ALCOHOLISM

A regular intake of alcoholic content is alcoholism.But, when you can't do without an alcoholic content, you're starting to be addicted to alcoholic content .
There are various consequences of alcoholism and they are in diverse units:

IN SCHOOL
As a student, engaging in alcoholism is not proper for your health. In terms of rest, alcohol doesn't give you the opportunity to have a proper sleep and a proper sleep is essential for a student. Regarding the brain, alcohol causes slurred speech, sleepy movement. Heavy drinking may also increase the risk of memory loss in early old age. Heavy drinking over a long period of time appears to actually shrink the brain volume.

IN SAVINGS
If you buy a carton of Escudo Rojo Red wine in Nigeria every week and a carton of 12 bottles is #49,000 and you buy 1 carton every week, which means in a month that will cost you #196,000, which insinuates that in a year that will cost you #2,352,000. If you had saved that money, you could have bought a Honda Pilot 2006 model or a Honda Accord 2007 and you might still have some change, if you're not cheated.

We can now see that engaging in alcoholism doesn't pay you in any way. Instead, it deprives you of some benefits and reduces most of your opportunities in life. So I will advice you today, to stop alcoholism.

CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR

I didn't fully understand this phrase "be careful what you ask for" till it happened to me. Preparing for my SIWES (Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme), I wanted a good place. An environment where I could learn and grow not just work... I was so sure that was what I wanted. I applied to various offices, checked for placements online, made enquiries from family and friends, even wrote an exam (on top SIWES 😂) and sent a lot of mails.  I eventually got a call to resume work as I had been accepted. Getting there, I realized they didn't directly offer the service I wanted to gain practical experience in, but they offered something similar which is still a plus. Now, this is where it began. Work officially started and this was nothing like what I planned or asked for. In the first week of resumption all SIWES interns were given a study plan that included courses we were expected to take within a period of time... yep, we had deadlines to meet. Plus, we still had ...

EXPOSURE CHANGES EXPECTATIONS

There are many things I've come to realize during the first half of this year, and I understand them much better because I've experienced them firsthand during my Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES). I remember there were many things that seemed very difficult, or almost impossible, when I was younger. Even from last year until now, my mindset has changed significantly. Not because those things have suddenly become easy, but because I'm currently in an environment where I see people strive for difficult things and eventually achieve them. They desire something, and they intentionally work towards it. I've heard some ladies say they wouldn't marry someone who lives in the same environment they grew up in because they don't want to raise their children there. While there are exceptions, I now understand the principle behind that mindset. Your environment influences your thinking, your expectations, and even what you believe is possible. I'm grat...

THE SILENT COST OF ASSUMPTIONS

After my first SIWES presentation, I learnt a vital lesson: confirmation gives better confidence than standing to defend what you only assume. So here’s the tea. Two weeks before the SIWES interns had their presentations, we were given the opportunity to watch two NYSC interns present. It was beautiful and impactful. After the presentation, I requested the document format from my supervisor, and he sent it to me. About a week before our own presentation, the HR in charge of training sent a document format for us to use as a guideline. The format was completely different from what my supervisor had sent, but I brushed it aside. I mean… it didn’t look like what the corps members used for their presentation. The day of the presentation came, and I used the format my supervisor sent. I wasn’t the only one who made this mistake. Others also used the same format because it looked similar to what we had seen earlier. Midway into my presentation, the company manager asked, “Is this the format ...
