Merry Christmas folks!

This is a time to celebrate, have fun, and take a vacation from the routine of college life.

Many of us are already feeling a sense of excitement, enthusiasm, and anticipation as the holiday season approaches.

Many festivities and special occasions have been planned, and this atmosphere is frequently defined by people feeling more joyful, bonded, and driven toward a common goal.

Students experience this feeling during festive times like Christmas, New Year’s Eve, and other cultural celebrations, which strengthens social ties and promotes a sense of community.

For students, it signifies the end of another academic year, a time to unwind, and create lasting memories with friends and family.

It’s another time to unleash your inner selves when it comes to partying and forget about books.

This period provides students with a much-needed respite from the rigors of academics, allowing you to recharge and return to college with renewed energy and focus.

I am happy that you will be away from the stresses of college.

Do everything you can to be happy, dance until they say it’s enough but remain loyal to good character.

Students should remain loyal to good character, which implies being committed to upholding and promoting moral values, ethical conduct, and virtuous traits.

Yours truly will continue to give you what I will be seeing around mostly away from campus life.

Like I always tell you, I write what I see but this time my eyes will be cast in four different walls of the world.

It is my prayer that you enjoy to the fullest but make sure whatever you will be doing, avoid regrets.

It’s also another time to say goodbye to the fellow students whom you would have met during the course of the academic journey.

And it’s not always easy to say goodbye to people whom you would have been together with for years.

And as usual it would be disingenuous not to include my take on partying and avoiding regrets during this festive season.

During this break, students will be engaging in a variety of activities, such as traveling, pursuing hobbies, or simply spending quality time with family.These experiences often contribute to their personal growth and help them develop a broader perspective on life.

Some will be partying with friends, while some this is the moment to be adventurous.But whatever you will be doing, remain a good student.

During the festive season, students often experience a shift in behaviour, with some turning into fools due to various factors.

One of the primary reasons students exhibit foolish behaviour during the festive season is peer pressure.

The excitement and euphoria of the festivities often lead students to engage in activities that they might otherwise avoid. These activities can range from excessive partying to indulging in risky behaviour, such as consuming alcohol and engaging in unprotected sex.

Another contributing factor to students turning into fools during the festive season is the lack of structure and routine.

With colleges and schools closed, students have more free time on their hands, which can be both a blessing and a curse.

The absence of a daily routine can lead to procrastination and poor time management, causing students to lose focus on their academic responsibilities.

Remaining loyal to good character fosters personal growth in students. By adhering to values such as honesty and integrity, students develop a strong sense of self-worth and self-respect.

Staying true to good character allows students to build healthy relationships based on trust and mutual respect.

Fellow students, I urge you not to give your parents and families burdens due to your characters.

This is also a great time to look for some alternatives to get money while it’s also an opportunity to explore new things as you wait to return to college next year.

During holidays, students often experience a break from their regular routine, which can lead to various challenges in maintaining discipline and academic performance.

While we contemplate this, some parents are already regretting having this semester break since they are being burdened by your characters.

Avoid being troublesome at whatever cost.

Partying is an essential aspect of student life, as it provides opportunities for socialization, relaxation, and enjoyment. However, excessive partying can have significant negative effects on students’ academic performance, health, and well-being.

For those students who will be going to college, party time can offer opportunities for socialization and relaxation, but it can have detrimental consequences on academic performance, health, and social relationships.

It is essential for students to strike a balance between enjoying their social lives and maintaining a healthy lifestyle that supports their academic success.

When students take a break, it can have both positive and negative effects on their academic performance and overall well-being.

Taking breaks during studying or completing assignments is essential for maintaining focus and preventing burnout. However, the length and frequency of these breaks can significantly impact productivity and learning outcomes.

Loyalty to good character also contributes significantly to academic success.

Students who possess positive character traits such as perseverance and a strong work ethic are more likely to excel academically.

 They understand the importance of consistent effort, time management, and dedication in their studies. College breaks are vital for students’ mental and physical well-being.  These breaks offer students the opportunity to rest and rejuvenate after a long academic term.

Enjoy my fellow students but don’t forget to remain loyal to good things.

Be blessed and protected throughout the whole festive season.
