Hear me out!!!! 📢 📢 📢. I SURVIVED the first year of my PhD studies in Chemistry. I am so proud of myself. For someone who doubted herself A LOT 9 months ago when I just started, I have outdone myself. 3.87/4.0 CGPA. All PhD coursework now completed!

@EtuboDragon Take Darryl seriously at your own peril. The dedication he puts into making CLEAN jokes needs to be studied by many of our home-based comedians. In fact if you don’t know of him, you’ll think he’s serious. The one at Walmart, he acted as a staff killed me. 😂😂😂😂.

@cenbank And Nigerians are acting as if all is okay. This ability to adjust to just anything, make lemonades out of every lemon is the very undoing of this country. It's a great disservice and not strength. And some people still want to vote in an ailing frail grandpa. This is selfish!.

My colleagues laughed at me at every given chance for using an iPhone 7 in 2023. Lol! .I used that money to register for GRE and buy a new PC after the one I had crashed. I chose to use my funds to pursue my future. Today I can get whatever phone I want and pay for it in full.
An iPhone 12 in 2024 is crazy 😂.

How did I get admitted into this program?. I just want to quickly tell you that you’re not feeling what others haven’t felt. Listen to me, I came in September and failed 4 out of 5 of my entrance exams. Even though I had long graduated and worked in the industry before resuming -.

@Tspiceskitchen I heard he can take a messed up life, full of traumas and brokenness and turn it into a life that gives others hope and brings healing to humanity. I heard he can turn bones into armies and graves into gardens. You know the best part? He gave me the right to call him Abba father.

@Sisi_Yemmie Reminds me of when this cashier at blenco put 11500 for the Always pad I bought. I’m so lucky I did a mental calc before going to shop that day, so I knew something was off. Turns out instead of 1200 I was charged 11,500. Stay vigilant for real!.

graduate school, it didn’t matter to me. I panicked. It felt like my true self had been bared for everyone to see. It felt like the whole time when my family and friends thought me to be a smart ass, I had finally come to the point where everyone will see I am not intelligent.

But I wasn’t alone. I didn’t suffer in silence. I cried out for help. One of my profs told me something that I’ve held close to my heart. He said “Oby, we all deal with impostor syndrome. Every one of us, even me a professor. What I want you to do is identify your support system-.

@AskMichaelTaiwo Dr. one first quick cultural shock was when one of my classmate tripped himself and I said “oh sorry” and he was looking at me like “oh you’re good, it’s not your fault”… In my mind I said “ah ah, where I came from we say sorry oh as a show of empathy” 😂😂😂.

@diaryofa9jagirl It's a systemic problem, yes. She would have put it in a better way, yes. But the real problem here Ife is not many girls are safe walking about peacefully in broad daylight, how much more at night? The mama is just protecting her child from the broken world we find ourselves in.

@AskMichaelTaiwo Dr. Taiwo, I beg to disagree. I was in the industry for 4 yrs and the more I stayed the more I saw the need to go to graduate school and acquire more training. It’s been a year into my journey and the skills I’ve acquired so far supersede what I was doing at Dangote for 4yrs.
