Unnecessary Things that Might Be Useful: NYSC 2015 Batch A

Now that you have a list of needs, I think a list of wants might be of help too.

What Business Do You Do

Many entrepreneurs want to lay low in camp and avoid being noticed. That is by no means a definition of humility. Whatever it is that you do, take along with you to camp. it is an opportunity to expand your clientele.

1. DJ's go with your laptop. You don't want to regret your decision when you hear 'wack' music  from the OBS (that's the Camp Radio) knowing you can do better.
2. Makeup artistes, go along with some of your things. Camp features several activities like Miss NYSC competition, Drama, Dance etc. Your services would be useful in one or more of these. You may also earn a little income.
3. Footballers, go with your boots. You might have a bad mood when you buy a new boot knowing you could have brought one from home
4. Beauty queens, do not forget to go with your beauty. It could earn you some fame, a good posting or a nice gift. and definitely a lot of attention. You may come with a gown for the pageant (hoping you will qualify). Renting a gown can make you incur extra cost. unfortunately, you might not get a perfect fit.
5. Artistes that can draw and paint, you might also get to add a few thousands to your alawee by offering your services to those who'll need it. Some want their portraits. If you can design on shirts, know that people are willing to pay 200 naira for just making their clothe look nice with their name colourfully written.
6. Musicians, you can go with your sound track. You may be lucky at the talent hunt or get airplay on OBS Radio

Whatever, you know how to do, do not hide. There's not price for being the most reserved. Talk, interact, learn, participate and don't forget to leave a lasting impression about your family, tribe and people. Enjoy the variety Nigeria provides.  Avoid ethnic cliques. Know that you can redefine who you are in 21 days. "Any habit you practice for 21 days becomes a character." Here's a chance to be a new and better person.
