There's something purposeful about being here.
I have learnt a different meaning of purpose. Purpose is simply going to defecate and coming out feeling good. The end goal is the satisfaction that comes from knowing you actually did what you went to the toilet to do,
Yesterday was our cultural carnival and platoon came first place π₯. We represented the Fulani culture.
My team members are so creative and I love them so much. I kept hearing "Vivian, now that we have won, go and sleep and rest"ππ. I think I was somehow everywhere at once.
I qualified for a pitch competition today from my Business clinic SAED group and I came first place π₯.
The mic stopped working but guess who didn't stop talking? π Thank God only the judges heard me because who knows who would have executed my idea before me π.
By this time next week, I will be out of this camp.
For the first time in my life, I wouldn't feel like I am leaving a place unfulfilled. I really came out of my shell and I love it. I did all I considered good and I did my bit well.
Until a stranger told me that I spoke exceptionally well, I didn't remember how prepared I was for today's debate.
I came Second place, along side my supporting speaker in today's presidential debate. The difference was one point away from the first. I didn't even finish
My train of thought scattered when the audience clapped and I took an unnecessary pause before I picked up again.
I have promised to put myself into everything that will test me and I just pray for grace. I will compete again and I will come first place.
Might share my NYSC series and the little things I have done and discovered about myself through doing instead of over analyzing. I just step up and do it. I end up flexing excellence.
I mean, I'm actually surprised, how powerful "just doing" works.π
One thing NYSC has opened me to is leadership. Unexpectedly, I have been leading and coordinating in every space or group that I get to be part of here.
I am so surprised that I can even.
Day 13 of doing good works.
The work just started.
I have to oversee that the sub team leaders and members are doing right. Today was a lot. Na me become pepper and salt for the drama team that will be representing us tomorrow, from the story, plot, costume, script, stage, etc
Day 12 of doing good works.
I am growing and it surprises me sometimes. How I was able to keep my platoon dancers active, stayed through the rehearsal to motivate and encourage them, I didn't know I could.
My platoon had second place at the welcome party today!
Day 11 of doing good works.
Completing my registration at the orientation camp was real work today.
But you know what I did? I boldly stood up to be the assistant leader of my platoon. There's work ahead, a lot of work... to serve my country, my platoon leaders and members.
Day 10 of doing good works.
The journey to camp wasn't wasted, I was minding my business all through.
I made some inputs to the terms of Use and privacy policy drafted before now. The client requested for certain details to be included.
It was not easy getting volunteers and even at some point, the once who volunteered backed down. Almost last minute, one of them said she was too shy to continue. I don't know what I said but she got back in and killed it.
