The Beer was already on the table. To celebrate was inevitable !! \m/

Great Lakes Institute of Management, here I come.

What a way to start!! It was all the more exciting because my student loan got sanctioned on my birthday (15th May). Happy Birthday to me. :)

As happy as I am, the past month and it’s experiences for me in getting a loan has taught me a lot. From how important money and property is to how important a guarantor is (For the loan).

For a while I regretted my past (For being less financially sound, having to ask everyone for help, etc) and wondered should the past have been different, I would not have run from pillar to post like a dog begging for me to study further. More-so because it wasn’t for a car, a house or even something as shallow as jewellery but it was for me to study. And study alone. But I was wrong. And how.

Why? you might ask. Well, if it wasn't for my past and its difficulties, I wouldn't be the person I am today. Today, I feel wealthier more than ever before. I have a family that encourages me, friends who'd pick me up, moments that are worth more than money can buy. For that, I am fortunate.

I have God to thank for that. God and.... a LOT of Alcohol. :P
