COLLEGE STUDENTS RECLAIMING HUMAN INTERACTION AMID DIGITAL DAZE

College students are opting for phone-free meet-ups to reduce anxiety and improve real-world connections, finding peer support more helpful than university resources.

A growing number of college students are choosing to put their phones away during social gatherings, with many reporting less anxiety and better connections. This trend shows a desire for real-life interactions over constant digital engagement.

The $50 experiment; little bets – big dream.

Dearest Gentle Readers,

It has most definitely been awhile I last made a post, school has me occupied and all.. and I’ll be sure to tell you all about it in my next post.

I remain your humble college dreamgirl but today I’ve come to make but a request than a post.

So I got this message on WhatsApp yesterday evening after returning from classes. It was from the Bamboo channel I follow. And for those not conversant with Bamboo, it is an investing app that deals on both NGN and US stocks (this is not a promotion post by the way) but yes, I’ll be sharing more in my subsequent posts about it as I’m still new to investing, I’m also really excited about the whole journey.

Back to the whole purpose of this post, the catch here is the referral system on Misan by Bamboo.

Anyone that knows a student knows how open we are to trying to new things, especially when we’d finally be able to generate money from it.

Making N254,000 (i.e CAD $250, if I’m correct) from just referrals from 5 people who stay in Canada, is mind blowing. This is something I can finally participate in and a dream I’m confident I can make happen  because I have this space as a platform to be heard and supported. The referral rewards would be really helpful in adding up to my savings for a new phone and yes! You caught me…get some new clothes too!☺️

I signed up and found out I can get other helps from other countries!! And you also get CAD $50 (that’s for residents in Canada tho’)

I really hope this reaches far to the countries listed above and I’ll be using every possible tags that’s puts this on your page😂 I’m sorry if that’s a violation..but hey! If it’s on your page, it’s meant for you😉🌠

I honestly would have loved to drop my contact so we could connect more directly, but to avoid spams, I’ll keep things within this space for now. But I’ll be in the comments..over to all my Canadian readers, UK, European and Nigerian readers or even readers who knows other readers, Please engage.😭🥺

Here are the easy steps

• Download the Misan by Bamboo app on your app store or through this link
• Sign up with my referral code: WPWYC644
• Make your first qualifying transaction (refer to the image above to see how much your resident country need to send either to family or friends or for your everyday, personal or business use till it qualifies me and you to get the referral reward)
• All within 30 days.(that’s it really..)

Dear algorithm, I hope this meets the readers right.😙❤️THANKS FOR STAYING AND I REALLY HOPE YOU ENGAGE🥺

Hi folks! My friend Aseel only has a few more hours to pay her fees for the semester so she can take her exams. She needs less than $300 more, and she has a donor willing to match donations to help get her to that goal. Please help my friend in Palestine seek a better future!

Dites, mes profs-docs sûrs, vous gardez au cdi les exemples à suivre et à ne pas suivre de rapport de stage de vos 3èmes ?
Pour les suivants.

Est-ce que je recommande à Levantine d’aller voir la sienne (de prof-doc) à ce sujet ?

I’m in desperate need of financial help. I’m a 23-year-old college student trying to keep up with bills, and with my limited paycheck, any extra support would mean a lot. Even something small like coffee or lunch is truly appreciated. Thank you so much for your kindness. 🫶🏻

Rescue dog brings joy and comfort to UNC Chapel Hill students

ByAmber Rupinta

Friday, October 3, 2025 2:41PM

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (WTVD) — Students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are finding stress relief and joy thanks to an unlikely campus celebrity, a three-legged golden retriever named Ted.

Ted, a rescue dog adopted through Neuse River Golden Retriever Rescue, makes regular visits to campus with his owner, Kristen Ponturiero.

“Ted and I come on campus. We like to come at least once a month,” Ponturiero said.

Before becoming a source of comfort for college students, Ted’s journey began far from North Carolina.

“Ted was actually found as a stray on March 20, 2024, with a compound-like fracture on the streets of Albania. A very kind stranger found him and took him into her care, and was able to get him very good veterinary care. They were unable to save his front left leg. So he did have an amputation over in Albania. But, as you see, he gets along fine,” Ponturiero said.

Despite his rough start, Ted quickly adjusted and showed a natural love for people.

“My husband and I took Ted out to a brewery one night. A woman approached us, and she commented on Ted’s great demeanor and that she thought he would be a great volunteer,” Ponturiero said.

That encounter eventually led them to HAPPEE Hugs and Pups Posse, a group that encourages and empowers college students by offering emotional support – one hug or pup at a time.

Many UNC students say Ted has become an important presence during stressful times on campus.

“I think a lot of students, like, we really need that, especially during a time like this. So if you are stressed about exams, but like seeing a dog, that’s just like a moment to, like, unwind and see another smiling creature,” said student April Chou.

For others, simply seeing Ted is the highlight of their day.

“This is amazing to have on campus. It literally makes my day every time I see a dog on campus. Like, just because we never get to see dogs, because kids here don’t have them in the dorms or have them in their on-campus housing. Absolutely makes my day,” said student Madeleine Bouvette.

Ponturiero says Ted’s resilience makes him even more special.

Sometimes the most meaningful connections happen in the smallest moments. Roy and Nancy Taylor met during a prayer meeting at Greenville University in the early 1970s. Their story beautifully illustrates how the right educational environment can foster both academic excellence and lifelong relationships grounded in shared values. Roy is the author of The Road to Courage.

Happy Grad School Graduation anniversary to me. 🎓

Some years ago in Baltimore I finally put grad school in my rear-view mirror. I had worked 20+ part-time and 3 full-time jobs to get there. I treated myself to two ceremonies: one for Johns Hopkins and one for Peabody Conservatory.

An unexpected highlight was getting to meet James Van Allen, discoverer of Earth’s radiation belts. He was awarded an honorary doctorate by JHU that day so, in a way, he’s my classmate.

🍾 Semper sint in flore!

I'm thrilled to announce that I've been accepted as a student at #ColoradoChristianUniversityOnline! I'll be pursuing a B.S. in #ComputerScience. The school's class format seems much more manageable for me than other schools I've attended, and I'm feeling optimistic about this new chapter.

Now begins the challenging process of hunting for #scholarships. Unfortunately, I'm discovering just how inaccessible most scholarship websites are for screen reader users. If anyone knows of #accessible scholarship resources or platforms, I'd greatly appreciate your recommendations!
