WEEK 20

I made it guy's!  Last week of lectures, yet another stressful week . I think i stopped caring at week 19, i physically, emotionally and mentally drained. Ditched  some lectures, walked out of others, had to talk myself into getting out of bed some times but you guy's have no idea how it feels to be in the last week of Law School Lectures. Law school itself is not over but no more sitting in the auditorium for hours,waiting for break and praying for lectures to end for the day No more holding my breathe when the lecture starts calling out student number's because I didn't read the topic or attend group meeting the night before. No more driving like a manic in traffic when I wake up late in order to get in before 9am. No more smelly toilets.

WEEK 14

Hi guys,  Six more weeks to go then lectures are over. This is going to be a short post as I spent most of the week in the hospital . Did not have my car as the brakes failed on Sunday

WEEK 13

Hi guys, This weeks has been a busy one from the start. I'm going to try to go into more details on how my week by separating the days. Hopeful the posts don't get boring. Monday I got into a bit of trouble with student services for having multiple piercings on my ears, I smiled at the lady and she let me in. We finished criminal litigation early and I was excited to go home early only to remember Tuesday was the deadline given to complete medicals.  I assumed I didn't have to do it since I was not staying on campus, students are very fond of leaving things until last minute so the second the lecturer announced the end of class I didn't wait to thumbprint. Walked to the clinic as fast as I could, completed the process in 45 minutes and went back to thumbprint at ICT, I took my medical card as proof to show I wasn't ditching lectures. Got home before 4. Tuesday Long day , civil litigation takes a lot of time and the lectures always have stories to tell but th...

WEEK 12 AND OTHER RANDOM STUFF

Hi guys, This week has been hectic, the lecturers are starting to take group meeting serious, 63 members in a group got queried for not attending group meetings. On Tuesday I stayed back after lectures for two hours because the meeting for scheduled for 6pm after waiting for two hours, I waited till half 7 only to find out the meeting was cancelled. I was so pissed off, got stuck in traffic on the way home and didn't get in until 9.  I gave the group leader a piece of my mind the next day and as usual he gave him attitude.

WEEK 10/11

Hi guys, I've been so busy barely have time for myself. Nothing special has been happening, from lectures to remedial. It's been hectic, thank God remedial ended in week 11 so we are back to the usual long days. Lecturers going on for as long as they want. I attended my fist group meeting on Sunday, spent a hour in the wrong group meeting only to realize my group was on the ground floor, so i had to spend another hour listening to the same presentation. My group leader is a bit of c**t, people let little power get into their heads. I told him I didn't stay on campus and it would be stressful if i waited until 6pm for meeting if class end at 2 or 4. I would also face heavy traffic on the way home and might not get home until 9 all he did was tell me to move to the hostel or get an executive room. I don't mind doing the work or any extra work as long as i'm participating. I really don't have much to say, just glad the long days are over. Week 12 coming up ...

WEEK 9

This is going to be a short one, Remedial classes started on Monday and are to run for the six weeks for students who started late. We end lectures before two, its very interesting to know we can finish between half one and two pm but lectures are stretched to keep us busy. The classes are not bad , they move very fast and we finish at half six most days but they are stating to get boring because we are on Week 5 which is the week I start. Its nerve wrecking having to sit through it and not been able to because I have to thumb print.  Nothing special happened during the week , missed a day because I had a graduation to attend my 25 per cent is slowly reducing .

WEEK 7/8

Hi Guys , Happy New Year ! I was not able to do a post on week 7 last so I will combine week 7 and 8 together then do an update on week 8 at the end of the week . Hope you all have a great Christmas? WEEK 7 Still going to school from home because I simply can not do the five or six in a room and ten to twelve people to a bathroom/toilet thingy. No I don't think I'm better than everyone, I'm not used to living in such conditions and I find the price for Executive hostel expensive so coming from home is the cheapest option. The traffic is not that bad but I have to hang around after lectures when I have group meetings which I'm yet to attend hope I don't get into trouble.

Week 6

It's the sixth week of Law school but my second week. I attended my first law dinner and also wrote my first surprise "Snap Test" which are given randomly to snap your brain . I finished registration on Wednesday and was told there was a possibility I would be dinning the next day, the school has set ground rules student have to comply with in order to dine. *Court shoes or flats , no patents or suede's allowed just leather, no bows or designs of any sort. Males had to wear shoes with soles. *Suits: Skirts, white shirt , black dress and blazer for females and trousers for males. No skinny ties allowed. *Females had to be on their natural hair, no weaves, braids or plaits allowed. No nails or eyelashes and small stud earrings. Those who didn't comply with the rules were sent back to change, people were told to cut their nails, remove the designs on shoes. Some had to take of their false lashes. I fixed my nails on Sunday and really gutted I had to dissolve ...

Bar II

I survived my first week on the Lagos Campus, It was a lot of stress but I pulled through. Lectures started four weeks ago but I had issues with my admission due to people in ICT, I missed out on the background stuff but should be able to catch up . Bar II is completely different from Bar I first thing is I'm in the Lagos campus where they are much more stricter than Abuja. I decided to stay in Lagos due to the proximity to my house and the boo also lives in Lagos . In Abuja female students were allowed wear black on black but that'ts not the case in  Lagos, it was either white on black, black dresses or go back home to change. I got in trouble on my first day because my shirt had ruffles and I was wearing suede shoes, I smiled my way out of it, It took me over an hour to drive to VI from my house which is on the mainland and there was no way I was driving back home. The timetable for class is nine am to one thirty pm, with a thirty minute break at eleven,however that...
