    • @mrsibiya
      @mrsibiya  Рік тому +1

      No I’m from Mpumalanga, the experience was good it was something I wanted but exhausting when travelling and also harsh when the institution decides to make sudden decisions like telling us to leave within 48 hours as I live way too far
      No I’ve had my share of KZN im good in Gauteng

    Heyy bro, I’d appreciate if you reply back to this comment.
    I’m a Software Engineering student in Zambia still in my 2nd Year, and I just wanna say you’re my Inspiration mahn.
    Sometimes I get worried that I’m not that good at Programming as I see my colleague develop nice projects, I even get to question if what I’m doing here is worthwhile.
    What advice can you give? you’re experienced and you know how depressing university can be. Your reply will be highly appreciated

      Bruv, You have an advantage of still being in varsity and learning as much as you can now before the pressure of working.
      So that is something I went through and still going through hence I try my best to learn as much as I can. It's worthwhile stick to it and try to improve each and everyday

    Hello sir , really inspiring journey btw
    I just completed my graduation (bachelor) and am currently still learning to code in technologies like JS , react etc mostly frontend based ones. i am 21 and i am feeling that i wasted my time during college and am feeling missed out to many of this stuff .
    i currently have two choices , to get a 8-10 hr job or preparing for further education , and i am also not confident about my current technologies , i would love if you could provide me some mentorship / counseling or a response that might help in my situation.

    • @mrsibiya
      @mrsibiya  Рік тому +2

      This is definitely something you need to consider as what you want for yourself, as to not feeling confident that’s how I also felt and I can relate to what you are sharing but for myself I wanted nothing to do with school so I chose a Job and I learnt on the job
      Any choice is fine as long as it gives you peace and growth take it easy on yourself, there’s only so much you cam learn in a specific timeframe
