15 for 15 challenge: My Schooling and it's components

Its 2am, I just finished making a 50 slide presentation for a training I have to deliver on Saturday. I still got a letter to type for my fellowship (Secretary General thingy) and a report to compile and send fellowship head office but unfortunately, laptop battery has died. I'm so pumped up that I'm wishing I didn't turn of my generator early and contemplating going outside to turn it back on. Lol!

In the last two weeks I have been a super lady, juggling between GSA responsibilities, Fellowship responsibilities and of cause Academics. Thankfully, Its been successful all round, well, not really as I had to miss classes on Tuesday because of fellowship work, miss classes on Wednesday because of Google work, dumped other thing for school work on thrusday whilst my right hand man (God bless you Gabriel) was doing errands for me.

One thing I learnt between tuesday and today was that in reality, I would sacrifice alot if I want to be effective all round but I have to remember to follow set priorities and make up for any lapses (especially class wise).

I have also learnt that in leadership, people management is the toughest task.
Aside the fact that you have to always be at your best, always know and be there because people are watching, you also have to know how interact, relate and deal with different kinds of people (people with varying perception, level of intelligence, creativity and spirituality) and be able to give value so you can earn keepable trust and respect. Effective People management takes Grace and Wisdom.

Oh wow!..  I just remembered how ill I felt on Monday night. I couldn't do anything, so out of frustration, I began to listen to gospel songs. As I listened, my inner being was stirred up and I began to worship.
*Drumrolls*
After a couple of songs (and my terrible karaoke), The song named 'Power in the Name of Jesus' came on. As I listened to the song, I got a new revelation about the Name of Jesus and at the same time, I found my heart and body was at ease. There was this peace and assurance that I felt and so knew I was going to be fine. That was a great moment for me because i) the surge of power I felt was incredible ii) The revelation was profound but more, because I remembered again that though I may have no 'friends' in school anymore, I shouldn't allow thoughts of helplessness or loneliness creep in because God is always there.

How has life been in the last two weeks?

1) Blogging has suffered tremendously: I have literally not found the peace and time to write. Most of the times I tried to write, there was always something else fighting for my attention and they always won because they were priorities at that time. But, By Next Wed or Sunday, yes, Next Sunday, I would have settled down big time and the work would have lessened.

2) Few weeks ago, I realised I work better under pressure/with a deadline. Last week/This week, I discovered I'm a genuis under pressure (even when it's with multiple non-related things) until, I almost faint - Like yesterday.

My Wednesday was crazy. I literally didnt find time to breathe until 8:05pm. I went from this work to that work to that work to bible study to cooking my dinner. Now, even though I felt completely drained, there was a fulfilment a d satisfaction that the day was 90% successful.    After dinner that day, I tried to work some more but damn! My brain had shut down. I kept struggling until about 11:50 something when I eventually let sleep take me. Lesson 2 'REST REST REST. Rest is great for the body, Sleep refreshes the mind. Work piled for tomorrow is better than a stressed out super lady that breaks down' but seriously, I'm thriving under pressure. The adrenaline rush is just incredible.

3) I just started living alone and so far it's been epic. Funny, I remember to eat atleast twice everyday, mean while, at home or when I was living with friends, I hardly ate or felt hungry muchless cook. Lesson number 3 *I am maturing*
-------------------------------
Its 11pm on Saturday (two days after I first began writing this) and I'm drained. My body is weak and my mind has shutdown, Its like I can't think. I had a very-long- highly-mentally tasking day, after a long day yesterday and a vigil that ended at 5:40am last night. In short, I haven't rested all week and has barely slept but I'm kicking (yaaay! Feeling like Super woman). You wouldn't believe but as I write this, my mind is on tomorrow's service. There's so much my pastor asked me to do, I hope I don't forget anything.

Though, the flow was cut short, allow me try to pick up from where I left off on the life in the last two weeks thingy.

-------------------------------
Okay, that didn't work out. Tried writing, but my brain needs rest. I need to sleep.
So, you all should pardon me. I'd stop writing now but I promise to complete this in the next couple of days. For the sake of the 15 challenge, I'd post this now though.
