Here is her full post:

This week as I was preparing for my Phlebotomy exam, many thoughts came to my mind. Many years ago, I enrolled at Makerere University pursuing a degree in Development Economics which I did not complete because my music career had kicked off in high gear. Having dropped off in year 2, at the back of my mind I knew someday I will bounce back and pursue further studies. Years later, I enrolled at Nkozi university for Development Studies which I barely did for a year because I had a UK tour that my manager ‘then’ committed to and the dates collided with my first exam period. I began to get tired of trying even when I knew the granite importance of Education.

Fast forward, as I prepared to enroll ‘again’ little did I know God was preparing for me a career totally different. And while many classmates dropped off because of the virtual classes, I said to myself, “not the third time! I have to do this!” So I chose to push even when it was so tough. And here I am on a many years’ journey of a career very interesting. My point is, never stop trying at something that makes you a better person. People will always talk but would you rather give them talk of you being successful or a failure?! It does not matter how many times you fall but that one time you rise up and make it right. Your journey in life is personal so chase it personally.
