5 Things You Should Know Before You Graduate

After graduation comes the perks of adulthood, here are things
you should figure out before graduating.
Whether you are a hardcore nerd or you’re the life of the party
or just you like to keep the balance between the two, these are
a few things you should never leave the university without
knowing.
1. How to study and research. If you don’t study, then why are
you in school? You might as well go sell Bonga fish with your
time. Study your notes and textbooks. Do your projects and
assignments yourself; don’t pay someone to do them for you.
Don’t plagiarize other people’s works. Even if you don’t get
caught in school, it will affect you when you get out and have
to come up with original content on your job.
2. Your passion. A lot of people get into school and study
courses they were given rather than what they really wanted
while some others study courses they thought they liked but only
discovered halfway through that they did not like it.
So while in school, look inside you and try other things aside
from your regular school work just to know what you are really
passionate about.
3. How to cook. If you don’t learn to cook before leaving the
university, you might never do. If you have formed the habit of
eating out in school, it might be harder to break when you live
school.
If you attend a private university like I did where you are not
allowed to cook your own food, you might want to take culinary
classes during your holidays. Trust me you’ll thank me later.
4. Your strengths and weaknesses. It was in school I got to know
that I’m bad at recalling numbers and names but I recall actual
events really well and with a lot of detail. This will help you
to know what you should do and what shouldn’t try after school.
5. How to handle your finances. I still regret that I didn’t
learn this while in school as it affected me when I first
started working. Read books about personal financial management
and practice the things there so you’ll be used to them by the
time you leave school.
6. Learn how to relate with the opposite sex. You should learn
how to ask a girl out, you should learn how not to sell yourself
cheap; learn when no means yes etc.
