My worst day in school

I had an exam and I wasn't well prepared, so thought coming early would save a semester only to find that the exam was done 2 days ago but got confused with the issue of Monday & Wednesday, Tuesday & Thursday, exams. My bad!!

Choosing of Courses

 There needs to be a live guide on how to pick your courses as some new students may lack the knowledge of that they should pick that is in the Major and Minor they are studying. Some may find it very frustrating on being on a financial hold when they want to pick a course and eventually end up choosing classes in times they are not comfortable with. This has happened to me once and I think should be changed.

Slight Delay in The Stage

 On my way to school on Friday last week, I witnessed an accident that ended up causing a traffic jam for hours before police could come. This had me under a lot of pressure as I had a presentation to do but the school van was not at Safari  Park stage so I had to wait for twenty minutes for the van. This was a slight delay but i managed to be in class before the group presented. It would be very convenient if the van would be allowed to enter school and drop us off at our buildings to save the walking distance time used.

Commuting Problems

 The school provides a school van that helps students travel to the stage and back. There are two of them that alternate to keep things moving and this has helped me today as I was late to class. I usually walk to school from the stage and arrive on time but due to the traffic i found on my way to town from Madaraka I had to use and it was very cheap at 30ksh. It used to be 20ksh but due to the economic inflation occurring this had to be increased. I arrived ten minutes earlier and was able to finish my school work.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

Empowering Change: Our Journey in a Transformative Community Project

Introduction: In today's fast-paced world, coming together as a community and making a positive impact is more important than ever. In this blog post, I am thrilled to share the incredible journey we embarked on during a transformative community project. Our collective efforts, passion, and dedication brought about meaningful change, leaving a lasting impression on both the community and ourselves.

As USIU Students we are proud of whatever impact we are doing on the Community, Recently we traveled to Machakos County, where we identified a need and formed a Transformative community project that, was going to solve the need that was identified. I'm happy that I was a member of the community group that was formed.

Our community project was more than just a series of activities; it was a journey that brought together a group of individuals bound by a shared purpose. We learned that when a community comes together, incredible transformations are possible. The project instilled in us a profound sense of gratitude, humility, and a renewed commitment to making a difference. As we reflect on this remarkable experience, we are filled with hope and inspired to continue our efforts in empowering change, one community at a time.

TRAVEL

 The great Rift valley is famous for its enthralling natural beauty,it consists of escarpments, hot springs ♨️, geysers, mountains 🏔️ and plains . Recently as I was traveling back to school we passed through the Mau escarpment route found within the rift valley,it was one of the things that impressed me and on the othe hand I was afraid of the escarpment, because,the road 🛣️ passes in between a hill and a valley (escarpment).I was shocked because I always travel at night, but this was my first time travelling during the day, at least I caught a glimpse of the great Rift valley .
