SOME ADVICE TO THE FIRST YEARS.

Congrats for qualifying for university and once again welcome to Moi University College of Health Sciences .Below is some advice which  I thought may be of some help as you finalize your settling in.I hope I am not  too late.
  1. Respect your colleagues whether their former high school was called Kulemewa Day and Sunshine or was a prestigious academy.After some time you will come to realize that your former high school doesn't matter that much anymore.
  2. Be yourself .Do not try to copy other peoples` lifestyles or reading habits.Most of your classmates are as equally confused as you.
  3. In Med school you have to work hard .Don't be fooled by the fact that the pass mark is 50%.Even Raila can tell you that sometimes getting a mere 50% aint that easy.NO offense `Baba.'
  4. For the chics you will have a horde of undulating admirers,especially the seniors(read Team Mafisi)My advice to you;the fear of the rod is the beginning of wisdom...*evil laugh*...
  5. Outside catering (read buying food from outside) is more expensive than cooking.Choose wisely.
  6. For the Mututho haters,drink responsibly for the sake of your livers and wallets.
  7. HELB money is yours to spend and nobody is taking it away from you,so why blow it like a running nose?
  8. For the self-proclaimed  `bedroom mburis' beware of  a big disease with a small name.
  9. Stealing here in campus is one of the 1000 ways to die.If caught you will be dead before you scream abracadaver!
  10. Don't ignore your spiritual life; whether a  Christian,Muslim,Hindu or even a  believer in African Traditional Religion.Try to be close to the Supreme Being  you profess your faith to .Smooth life in this institution requires divine intervention.
  11. Have fun and enjoy yourselves.Later you will come to miss your first year in Med school(except  for guys in Physiotherapy and Dentistry ..hahaha!)

Life in Med school is what you make it.It`s your responsibility to ensure  that you have a good experience for  the 4+n/5+n/6+n years you will be in this place.All the best.
