Things to do while Waiting for Service

After your final year examinations, you are expected to go home and wait for your call up letter. To some people, it might take 6 months, 8 months, to some it might take years. During this period, do not make mistake of whiling away your time at home eating and getting fat or scrubbing and moping the house for your parents. Use this period as an opportunity to be fully mature and totally independent in various areas of life. If you are a girl who intends to get married after school but haven’t made a choice yet, take that time to pray and search for your beloved.

Go out, meet people, visit your friends and relations. Who knows, they might recommend you to a friend who lives overseas. LOL. Am serious!! Let’s talk more. If you are a girl or a boy, there are lots of things to do to prevent your mother from shouting at you at every minute. Lets take a look at them.
