Lifestyle Of Different Nigerian Student🌿

---

Think of a lecture hall with crowded students, a place of occasional strikes (recent tweets on X clearly pointing out more threats of strikes from ASUU). Are you looking for a place where you learn to be resilient time you flashback to the hut you left behind instead of a house, then you are welcome to the Nigerian university, a place where the future of those seeking white-collar jobs not only lies but also to everyone who wishes to explore. As a Nigerian student, the experience here is intense; try picturing me juggling academics with real-world hustle. Actually, it's not perfect, but it shapes every student in an imaginable way.

In respect to this, my stay at the university has led to a lot of exposure on campus and off campus. I have been able to picture different kinds of students. This picture is only content creation and doesn't actually depict the personality displayed; as you can see, some pictures displayed are pictures of steemians if only you looked intently.

The Project Defense Hustler

In the final year, you are likely to see many students with laptops, running helter skelter with papers in their hands, moving from one office to another; most may not remember to check if their hair is unkempt or if those clothes are a resemblance of a paper forced out of the bottle, especially when there is a memo of a deadline in the group chats. "Oh, chim", a Nigerian exclamatory slang that signifies frustration, is also heard from the vocal of students. For project students, this is their last lifeline, a final phase in the university, a time where your highest-stakes battle is how to get even work done and approved. Their laptop is their lifeline, and bags are loaded with heavy research papers. At this point, humility sets in because you need to please your supervisors most times to get most work checked. Projects shape every student; they make you sit up to work harder on submitting on the said time.

The Lovers Student

Last year, I was asked a question which I didn't need to give an answer to: "If you don't find love on campus, where would you?" I am not that obsessed with romance as a student, but that doesn't mean some are not. I will be giving a little description of what I know about students like this, as the other first description would be that they are always sacrificial, especially to their partner. For the ladies, most are very defensive and without understanding if they should hear that their boyfriend is out with another lady.

I call them lovers students, a student whose life is coloured by romance; I came across one who even held hands as they entered the class, and their glances at each other made me wowed. There is one funny thing about this set of people: breakups can make them miss classes or even find difficulty in reading for a test, or if worse comes to worst, an F in a course. In the same vein, guys in a relationship are either pressured by others' achievements to work hard to develop themselves and please their partners, or those gestures would be very obvious for a passerby to know they are either in love or planning to be.

The Librarian Student

This set of students don't chase grades for bragging sake, but they really love learning. Their school bags are stuck with borrowed books from the library; they know the right place to find a certain book. The library is their second home because each time they put a call across on lecture-free days, a slow whisper that will force you to move your device speakers to your ear is heard: "I am in the library." Apart from the library being their niche, in times of blackout you see them staking out in corners with lamps trying to figure out something on their notes.

The Party Night Owl

	-------

I would love to speak of party owl. This set of students lives in the vibes of late-night events; they go with the slogan "we live this like only once". They know the date of the latest dinner night. This set of students combine both hyping up with friends in the night and attending classes in the day; most times, they are likely to miss class due to nature's call (sleep).

The Online/Web3 Guy

Lastly, I will speak of the online/Web3 guys. This set of people are very informative; they are almost on all social media so far, which exposes them to new ways of earning a living through online sites. The online student is glued to a mobile device, scrolling through the latest updates, either on X or LinkedIn. They always monitor their crypto wallets, deeply embedded in the digital world not just for signals' sake but to build themselves financially. We call them hustle – cram for exams; he combines academics and these side gigs to survive at the university. Surviving in this varsity needs money, and he introduces his colleagues to trends, either potential airdrops or anything that could generate income; he has the highest followers on all social media and is likely to be an influencer. This student navigates the university grind while building a virtual world empire.

Again, I repeat, this is a creative sketch and not the actual reflection of any real individual traits, there are many type of student, this is just a few I can list
