Fun Things to do at NCU
Many will agree that college is one of, if not the most enjoyable experience in life. It is that peak in one’s adolescent years that affords you the freedom to be removed from the watchful eyes of your parents; enabling the developmental process of responsibility. University exposes an individual to a diversified cultural niche. It is a place where you can sleep, eat, play or study at your own convenience, where you control what you do and how it is done. However, it can also be a place where many people suffer the pangs of hunger, discontent, loneliness and heartbreak. It is also the point when many persons feel real hunger, famish and heartbreak. It is interesting to discover that most of the habits and friendships developed during college often follow you throughout life. It is also the most likely place to find your life partner. It is very important to make wise decisions, however, it is just as important to “live a little” and enjoy the youthful environment before entering the rigid, deadline-oriented world of work.
