XMASS BREAK

I have successfully completed the end of semester examination. The exam was cool. Just that things have become more demanding. Not withstanding that I am making a good sail through. Though my quizzes yielded poor results, the exam was comparatively better. I am Sure of good results.
Recently, I am at home trying to put one or two things in order. It is a very short break and i have Very little to offer.

ENDING TERTIARY LIFE

SO FAR SO GOOD. I'm into the last but one sgemester in the university. It has been a long way. Soon or later, I'm going out of the university. What is the way forward for me? My SHS teacher ones told me “the world out there is very rough”. I did not get the actual meaning of that. The discipline sociology has broadened my understanding of the world we dwell. That is the real world for man. I have had lot of personal, psychological, social and mental experience. After school, I have to do my national service. Get myself job and definitely pursue my career, NGO’s Management. I want to impact much on society. I am going to start the end of semester exam in four weeks time. Preparing for five courses: Advance Economic Theory, Economic Growth and Development, Rural Micro Finance, Sociology of Education, and Problems of Theory Building. I am in love with Rural Micro Finance. I will establish my own micro finance institution after school. It is to empower poor people, especially women in my society.
Last semester I scored grade point average of 3.2 out of 4.0. Working hard this semester too.

FINAL EXAM,THIRD YEAR.

I am about to end my sail through third year in the university. Just one week to end up such a task. You know, it not just ending but to end up making what is called ‘a remarkable sail’.
Already, I have taken three exam papers. Anyway, they were manageable papers. Two more papers to run up. Both of them would be written on 24th of this month (May). There is the need for me to finish hard. At least, I have one week to prepare for the two papers.
Just after my exam, I have to go to Kumasi to help organize the SmartKids annual meeting, 2011. The scheduled date is 4th of June. At the moment, invitation of other SmartKids is in progress. We are trying to reach everyone for the meeting. In facts, I’m very happy to get the opportunity to see everyone again as a family. Mr. Kees is about to come to Ghana. I wish him safe journey home. I see Ghana to be his homeland.

LEADERSHIP

This semester has been marked by lot of activities; campaign, hall weeks celebrations, and presentations. Early this semester, lot of students vied for the student leadership/administration. In facts, some of them conveyed very good messages. Others were also building castle in the air. I was much interested in voting on the students represented council (SRC). Other positions included local NUGS, Hall executives etc. It was the first time we did electronic voting (e-voting). It was very efficient and reliable. It allowed no room for rigging. Most of my favorite candidates carried the day.
While the political campaign was ongoing , various hall week celebrations were also in progress. It was very unfortunate that I couldn’t attend any of them. I even felt reluctant to attend that of my hall.
Academic activities are also in progress. It is severe as usual. I made very good presentation for my group in one of the courses (ECONOMY OF GHANA). It was a controversial presentation. Our lecturer could easily disqualify a group. Four presentations carried out that day were disqualified except that of my group. We impressed the lecturer. That was my initiative as a good group leader.
The first step of the SmartKids selection, 2011 has taken place. Letters have been sent to the regional directors of education of two regions: Western and Central region. We are communicating with them on regular basis in order to get things done the way we want it. I hope that there is going to be very good selection.
