Essential Gadgets you need while in University

In this generation, we are practically limited if we don’t have electronics close to us. They have changed our world and the way we do things through automation. In college life won’t be any different.

There are certain gadgets you will need to thrive or even survive on campus. Some of them you will have to carry everywhere you go for the price of ignoring them will be unbearable.

Some of the most important gadgets you will require while on campus include:

1. Laptop

It goes without saying that after high school, on thing every graduate requires is a laptop.

Well if you want to know why, they store your stuff (music, movies, pictures, documents), give you access to the internet for social networking (Facebook, Instagram), enables you to play games, help you in betting, access to notes and assignment, much, much more. Not having a laptop is subjecting yourself to inconveniences.

2. Smartphone

A phone is essential for the purpose of communication, timekeeping, scheduling your activities and even making transactions. Nevertheless, you wouldn’t want to carry a mere phone all the time with no fun things to do with it.

This is where a smartphone comes in. It is basically a computer but small. You can do what you could with the laptop on that smartphone. I even don’t know why I’m explaining this. A smartphone is a basic need.

3. Flash disk

Your laptop can not have all the movies and music in this world and you couldn’t carry it anywhere you go to copy what you don’t have. This is where the flash disk comes in. it is portable and more effective especially if it has lots of space. You can just plug in this ‘baby’ in any computer out there and secure your files

4. LAN Cable

You are probably wondering why I include this cable here. This cable comes in handy when WiFi around campus is slow. You can connect your computer to network sockets and enjoy very high speeds if internet compared to WiFi which is the favorite for everybody.

In addition, LAN cable enables very fast transfer of data between computers. You can even play games like need for speed with your friends without sharing a laptop.

5. Memory Card

Have you noticed that I’m still insisting on storage space? A memory card adds more storage space to your phone. Technically you need not less than 6 GB of storage space in your phone to strive well.

Up- stepping your memory with a USB card can give you the space to download stuff like YouTube videos you have free WiFi, more storage for your favorite music and a lot more.

6. A System

This is not a basic need but it can surely help a lot at times. You need something to entertain you when you are at your room resting, doing your stuff or thinking about anything.

A system keeps you connected to the world through radio and gives you awesome sound effects when you are watching your favorite movies.

In case you want to hold a party, a system will give the music to keep your jam hyped. A system gives you the college experience and personally, I can’t imagine a life without it.

7. Calculator

A calculator should top the list. Most of the courses in university involve Math. So, it is hard to survive without a calculator

You will need it especially during exams since most institutions discourage sharing of calculators. Get hold of one, at least an acceptable one like Casio fx-82ms.

Basically, these are the 7 very essential gadgets you need. In addition, you should also consider:

  • Extension
  • USB cable
  • Earphones/headphones
  • External Hard drive
  • Power-bank
  • Modem
  • Gaming pad

Thanks for your time and feel free to leave a comment or ask any question. You can also add what you think is essential too.

EarnSmart; Make Money Online – Legit or Scam, Honest Review

Image
EarnSmart has been making quite some waves of late. I first saw it when two friends posted some funny WhatsApp statuses about the online gig. The first comment was ‘Who said EarnSmart is for hustlers? I’m a rich kid and I’m in too!” while the second comment was “I’ll only join EarnSmart when a member buys a car.” So I obviously got quite interested with EarnSmart and immediately hopped onto google and started researching the venture. The first result that came from my research was a website by the name Earn Smart Online Class . I visited the website and realized it wasn’t the EarnSmart venture my friend was talking about. However, this well-designed blog contains hundreds of articles on how to make money online and is written by Virginia Nakitari, a Kenyan. She also has an online course through which she trains people on how to make money online. In my opinion, this blog might be very valuable to any Kenyan who wants to learn ways and platforms to use to make money online while in Keny...

How Mount Kenya University is building its students welfare

Image
The fastest-growing institution of higher learning in Kenya. Home to not less than 70,000 students. A source of employment to more than 5000 staff members. These are some of the descriptions of Mount Kenya University, often referred to by its acronym, (MKU).  Founded in 1996, the institution has grown to become arguably Eastern Africa’s largest attractive education hub for students not only in Kenya but also across the globe. Thanks to the large student’s body, there is a students’ union at Mount Kenya University, referred to as Mount Kenya University Students Association (MKUSA). The powerful association is responsible for collectively agitating for the students’ rights and grievances. All students pursuing an academic program at the University are bonafide members. The association is governed by a cabinet of nine people with key positions being the President, Secretary-General, and the Finance Minister, all, who are signatories to the association’s kitty of funds.
