Hey there, I’m Martin Onyisi, a National Diploma (ND) grad in Computer Science, and this is my story of navigating the wild, sometimes hilarious, world of coding. Spoiler alert: it’s been a ride full of trust in myself (even when my code betrayed me😆), hope that I’d survive another all-nighter, and a love for learning and sharing knowledge with others. Buckle up, because I’m no tech guru—just a guy who loves code, reading, and a good laugh.
🧑🎓 The College Days: Where It All Began
Picture me, a wide-eyed student starting my Computer Science journey. I thought I’d be hacking into mainframes like some movie star(I boy), but instead, I was wrestling with “Syntax Error” messages at 2 a.m. College was a crash course in algorithms, data structures, and the art of pretending I understood pointers. I graduated with my ND in 2024, and let me tell you, getting that diploma felt like winning a boss fight in a game with no save points😶🌫️.
But school wasn’t just about passing exams. It was where I fell in love with programming. I mean, who wouldn’t love turning ideas into code? My first “Hello, World!” program in java felt like I’d just invented fire. Okay, maybe not that dramatic, but you get the vibe. Every line of code I wrote was a step toward understanding this magical world where logic meets creativity.
MY IT Year (2024-2025): Coding, Crashing, and Comedy 🤭
After graduation, I dove into my one-year Industrial Training (IT), where I decided to focus on programming and sharing what I learned with others. Let’s just say it was less “Silicon Valley” and more “Silicon Struggle.” I spent my days learning C, Java, Python and whatever else the internet threw at me. My nights? Debugging code that looked like it was written by a caffeinated squirrel.
One time, I spent hours trying to fix a web app that refused to work(Global Academic Hub). Turns out, I’d forgotten a single semicolon. A semicolon! It’s like the code gods were pranking me, saying, “Martin, you thought you were smart? Here’s a tiny punctuation mark to humble you.”😆 But those moments taught me to trust the process—because even when my code crashed, my hope didn’t. 🧘
During my IT, I also discovered the joy of sharing knowledge. I’d explain concepts like loops or APIs to my friends, and suddenly, their “Aha!” moments became my favorite part of the day. I started posting tips on social media and joining local tech meetups. Picture me, nervously explaining variables to a room full of coders, hoping I didn’t sound like I was reading from a “Coding for Dummies” book. Spoiler: they didn’t throw tomatoes, and I even made some friends. 🌟
The Struggles: Bugs, Burnout, Inflation and Bad Network
Let’s be real—being a programmer isn’t all rainbows and perfectly indented code. There were days when I stared at my screen, wondering if I’d accidentally joined a secret society of masochists. Like the time I tried integrating an API into a project. I thought I was one step away from success, but the API was like, “Nah, Martin, you’re getting a 404 error and a headache instead.” I laughed it off, mostly because crying in front of my laptop would’ve short-circuited it. 😪
But hope kept me going. Every bug I squashed (after way too many Stack Overflow tabs) was a reminder that I could figure things out. I trusted that each failure was just a plot twist in my coding story. Plus, nothing says “I’m a programmer” like muttering, “It works on my machine!” while secretly praying it actually does. 🙃
The Joy of Learning and Sharing
Even now, I’m still studying—because in tech, if you’re not learning, you’re basically that guy still using a flip phone in 2025. I’m diving into stuff like AI and Cyber Security, mostly through online courses and YouTube tutorials (shoutout to MTN and Glo network for occasionally cooperating). Every new concept I learn feels like unlocking a cheat code for life.
But the best part? Sharing what I know. Whether it’s helping a buddy debug their code or posting a quick tip online, I love seeing people light up when something clicks. I’m no expert—half the time, I’m just one Google search ahead of the person I’m helping. But there’s something magical about turning “I don’t get it” into “Oh, that’s how it works!” It’s like being the Robin Hood of code, except instead of stealing from the rich, I’m stealing high-fives from grateful learners. 🥰
Looking Forward: More Code, More Laughs 💫
So, what’s next for me? I’m still coding, still learning, and still sharing. My dream is to build something cool—like an app that actually works without me praying to the tech gods. I also want to keep helping others, because if I can stumble through this coding journey and come out smiling, anyone can.
My life as a CS student and programmer has been a wild mix of trust, hope, and a whole lot of “Why won’t this code work?” moments. It’s taught me that you don’t need to be a tech wizard to make a difference—just a guy with a laptop, a love for learning, and the ability to laugh when your code decides to throw a tantrum. So, here’s to more bugs, more breakthroughs, and more bad programmer jokes. Like, why don’t programmers prefer dark mode? Because the light attracts bugs. Get it? Yeah, I’ll stick to coding.

Saturday September 6, 2025 WEEKDAY (22) BVM on Saturday Office: Psalter week 2 Mass and Preface of the day or B.V.M. Vestment: Green/White Today’s Rosary: The Joyful Mystery
Vespers I of the 23rd Sunday of the year
ENTRANCE ANTIPHON Cf. Ps 85: 3, 5 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I cry to you all the day long. O Lord, you are good and forgiving, full of mercy to all who call to you.
COLLECT God of might, giver of every good gift, put into our hearts the love of your name, so that, by deepening our sense of reverence, you may nurture in us what is good and, by your watchful care, keep safe what you have nurtured. Through our Lord…….
FIRST READING He has reconciled you in order to present you holy and blameless. A reading from the Letter of Saint Paul to the Colossians (Colossians1:21-23)
Brethren: You, who once were estranged and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in Christ’s body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable before him, provided that you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.
The word of the Lord.
RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm54:3-4.6 and 8 (R. 6a) R/. See, I have God for my help.
O God, save me by your name; by your power, defend my cause. O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth. R/.
See, I have God for my help. The Lord sustains my soul. I will sacrifice to you with willing heart, and praise your name, for it is good. R/.
ALLELUIA John 14:6 Alleluia. I am the way, and the truth, and the life, says the Lord; no one comes to the Father, but by me. Alleluia.
GOSPEL “Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.” A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke (Luke 6:1-5)
On a sabbath, While Jesus was going through the grain fields, his disciples plucked and ate some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands. But some of the Pharisees said, “Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath?” And Jesus answered, “Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him: how he entered the house of God, and took and ate the show bread, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those with him?” And he said to them, “The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.”
The Gospel of the Lord.
TODAY’S REFLECTION The “unlawful” acts committed by the disciples are “plucking ears of grain” and “rubbing them in their hands”. These are normal acts anyone would do while walking through a grain field. Jesus argues in favour of his disciples and proves that what they do is not really “unlawful” but satisfying a basic human need. No law can prevent an act committed in the face of dire human need. Hunger is a global reality as 795 million people in the world exist without the nutrition their minds and bodies need, which then prevents them from being able to work, go to school, or improve their lives. This while 85 persons control half of world’s wealth! Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath. Is also the Lord of compassion and love, especially towards those suffering from hunger and poverty.
PERSONAL DEVOTIONAL Do not be afraid – I am with you! I am your God – let nothing terrify you! I will make you strong and help you; I will protect you and save you. Isaiah 41:10
- Give me the grace to be ever sensitive to the needs of those around me.
- Help me to realise that each time I do good to others, I do them to you.
August is a month of new beginnings, fresh opportunities, and endless possibilities! 🌟 As we step into this new chapter, let's fill our days with laughter, love, and adventure. 🌞 May this month bring us closer to our dreams and fill our hearts with joy and positivity. 💫 Here's to an amazing August! 🎉
To young developers in 2025, your journey is just beginning in a world where tech evolves faster than ever.
My advice to help you thrive:
1. Master the Fundamentals: AI tools and frameworks are powerful, but understanding core concepts—data structures, algorithms, and system design—will set you apart. Languages and tools change; principles don’t.
2. Embrace AI as a Partner: Tools like Grok 3, Chatgpt, Deepseek or other AI assistants can accelerate your coding, debugging, and learning. Use them to explore new domains, but don’t rely on them to think for you. Learn to ask precise questions to get the most out of AI.
3. Build Real Projects: Theory is great, but nothing beats hands-on experience. Start small—build apps, contribute to open-source, or create tools that solve problems you care about. Share your work on platforms like GitHub, linkedIn or X to get feedback and visibility.
4. Stay Curious, Keep Learning: Tech in 2025 is a mix of cloud, AI, quantum, and more. Dive into emerging fields like decentralized systems or bio-computing. Follow X posts from innovators to stay updated on trends and breakthroughs.
5. Focus on Soft Skills: Communication, collaboration, and empathy are as critical as code. You’ll work in diverse teams, so learn to explain complex ideas simply and listen to others’ perspectives.
6. Prioritize Ethics: As tech shapes society, your code has impact. Think about privacy, bias, and accessibility in your work. Be a developer who builds for good.
7. Network and Find Mentors: Engage with communities on X, Discord, or local meetups. Connect with experienced devs who can guide you. A mentor’s advice can save you years of trial and error.
8. Take Care of Yourself: Coding marathons are tempting, but burnout is real. Balance your time, stay active, and nurture hobbies outside tech. A healthy mind writes better code.
The world needs your creativity and problem-solving. Stay resilient, keep experimenting, and don’t be afraid to fail—it’s how you grow. You’ve got this! 😉 Martin Onyisi
The Chinese tech industry in 2025 is a vibrant and rapidly evolving landscape. Imagine a sprawling metropolis like Shenzhen or Hangzhou, where towering skyscrapers and neon-lit billboards give way to bustling streets lined with startups, tech giants, and innovation hubs.
In this dynamic ecosystem, entrepreneurs and engineers are hard at work, fueled by a passion for innovation and a relentless pursuit of progress. They're crafting cutting-edge solutions in artificial intelligence, semiconductors, electric vehicles, and more, often with a keen eye on global markets.
Government support and investment are fueling this growth, with initiatives like tax breaks, funding for R&D, and strategic guidance from policymakers. This backing has enabled Chinese tech companies to surge ahead in areas like 5G, e-commerce, and fintech, making them increasingly competitive on the world stage.
As a result, Chinese tech companies are becoming household names, with brands like Huawei, Alibaba, and Tencent leading the charge. These companies are not only driving innovation but also creating new opportunities for collaboration, trade, and growth.
No jokes, I really wish African leaders can imitate the Chinese government 😮💨
The Chinese tech industry in 2025 is a story of rapid progress, boundless creativity, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. It's a sector that's transforming the way people live, work, and interact with technology, both in China and around the world.
Degree: Degrees provide foundational knowledge in a specific field, offering a broad understanding of concepts and theories. They are often required for certain careers or industries and can open doors to job opportunities and networking.

Skills: Skills, on the other hand, demonstrate practical ability and application. They are highly valued by employers, especially in tech and creative fields. Skills can be acquired through experience, training, or self-study, and show adaptability and willingness to learn. They can be developed through hands-on projects or internships and are directly applicable to specific job requirements.
Combining both degree and skill can lead to increased job prospects and career growth. Pursuing a degree provides foundational knowledge, while developing practical skills enhances job prospects. A blend of theoretical and practical expertise makes a candidate more competitive in the job market.
In today's fast-paced job market, having both degree and skill is beneficial. Degrees provide a foundation, while skills demonstrate practical application. This combination can lead to enhanced career growth and opportunities.
By focusing on both degree and skill development, you can increase your job prospects, stay adaptable, and continuously learn and grow professionally. This approach can lead to a successful and fulfilling career.
Learn a skill, get a degree of you get the opportunity.

My Life as a CS Student and Programmer ❤️🔥
Hey there, I’m Martin Onyisi, a National Diploma (ND) grad in Computer Science, and this is my story of navigating the wild, sometimes hilarious, world of coding. Spoiler alert: it’s been a ride full of trust in myself (even when my code betrayed me😆), hope that I’d survive another all-nighter, and a love for learning and sharing knowledge with others. Buckle up, because I’m no tech guru—just a guy who loves code, reading, and a good laugh.
🧑🎓 The College Days: Where It All Began
Picture me, a wide-eyed student starting my Computer Science journey. I thought I’d be hacking into mainframes like some movie star(I boy), but instead, I was wrestling with “Syntax Error” messages at 2 a.m. College was a crash course in algorithms, data structures, and the art of pretending I understood pointers. I graduated with my ND in 2024, and let me tell you, getting that diploma felt like winning a boss fight in a game with no save points😶🌫️.
But school wasn’t just about passing exams. It was where I fell in love with programming. I mean, who wouldn’t love turning ideas into code? My first “Hello, World!” program in java felt like I’d just invented fire. Okay, maybe not that dramatic, but you get the vibe. Every line of code I wrote was a step toward understanding this magical world where logic meets creativity.

Let’s just say it was less “Silicon Valley” and more “Silicon Struggle.” I spent my days learning C, Java, Python and whatever else the internet threw at me. My nights? Debugging code that looked like it was written by a caffeinated squirrel.
One time, I spent hours trying to fix a web app that refused to work(Global Academic Hub). Turns out, I’d forgotten a single semicolon. A semicolon! It’s like the code gods were pranking me, saying, “Martin, you thought you were smart? Here’s a tiny punctuation mark to humble you.”😆 But those moments taught me to trust the process—because even when my code crashed, my hope didn’t. 🧘

ENTRANCE ANTIPHON Cf. Ps 85: 3, 5
Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I cry to you all the day long. O Lord, you are good and forgiving, full of mercy to all who call to you.
COLLECT
God of might, giver of every good gift, put into our hearts the love of your name, so that, by deepening our sense of reverence, you may nurture in us what is good and, by your watchful care, keep safe what you have nurtured. Through our Lord…….

GOSPEL
“Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke (Luke 6:1-5)
On a sabbath, While Jesus was going through the grain fields, his disciples plucked and ate some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands. But some of the Pharisees said, “Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath?” And Jesus answered, “Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him: how he entered the house of God, and took and ate the show bread, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those with him?” And he said to them, “The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.”
The Gospel of the Lord.
TODAY’S REFLECTION
The “unlawful” acts committed by the disciples are “plucking ears of grain” and “rubbing them in their hands”. These are normal acts anyone would do while walking through a grain field. Jesus argues in favour of his disciples and proves that what they do is not really “unlawful” but satisfying a basic human need. No law can prevent an act committed in the face of dire human need. Hunger is a global reality as 795 million people in the world exist without the nutrition their minds and bodies need, which then prevents them from being able to work, go to school, or improve their lives. This while 85 persons control half of world’s wealth! Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath. Is also the Lord of compassion and love, especially towards those suffering from hunger and poverty.
PERSONAL DEVOTIONAL
Do not be afraid – I am with you! I am your God – let nothing terrify you! I will make you strong and help you; I will protect you and save you. Isaiah 41:10
- Give me the grace to be ever sensitive to the needs of those around me.
- Help me to realise that each time I do good to others, I do them to you.
- Assist me to be more conscious of the dangers of selfishness.

To young developers in 2025, your journey is just beginning in a world where tech evolves faster than ever.
My advice to help you thrive:
1. Master the Fundamentals: AI tools and frameworks are powerful, but understanding core concepts—data structures, algorithms, and system design—will set you apart. Languages and tools change; principles don’t.
2. Embrace AI as a Partner: Tools like Grok 3, Chatgpt, Deepseek or other AI assistants can accelerate your coding, debugging, and learning. Use them to explore new domains, but don’t rely on them to think for you. Learn to ask precise questions to get the most out of AI.
3. Build Real Projects: Theory is great, but nothing beats hands-on experience. Start small—build apps, contribute to open-source, or create tools that solve problems you care about. Share your work on platforms like GitHub, linkedIn or X to get feedback and visibility.
4. Stay Curious, Keep Learning: Tech in 2025 is a mix of cloud, AI, quantum, and more. Dive into emerging fields like decentralized systems or bio-computing. Follow X posts from innovators to stay updated on trends and breakthroughs.
5. Focus on Soft Skills: Communication, collaboration, and empathy are as critical as code. You’ll work in diverse teams, so learn to explain complex ideas simply and listen to others’ perspectives.
6. Prioritize Ethics: As tech shapes society, your code has impact. Think about privacy, bias, and accessibility in your work. Be a developer who builds for good.
7. Network and Find Mentors: Engage with communities on X, Discord, or local meetups. Connect with experienced devs who can guide you. A mentor’s advice can save you years of trial and error.
8. Take Care of Yourself: Coding marathons are tempting, but burnout is real. Balance your time, stay active, and nurture hobbies outside tech. A healthy mind writes better code.
The world needs your creativity and problem-solving. Stay resilient, keep experimenting, and don’t be afraid to fail—it’s how you grow. You’ve got this!

The Chinese tech industry in 2025 is a vibrant and rapidly evolving landscape. Imagine a sprawling metropolis like Shenzhen or Hangzhou, where towering skyscrapers and neon-lit billboards give way to bustling streets lined with startups, tech giants, and innovation hubs.
In this dynamic ecosystem, entrepreneurs and engineers are hard at work, fueled by a passion for innovation and a relentless pursuit of progress. They're crafting cutting-edge solutions in artificial intelligence, semiconductors, electric vehicles, and more, often with a keen eye on global markets.
Government support and investment are fueling this growth, with initiatives like tax breaks, funding for R&D, and strategic guidance from policymakers. This backing has enabled Chinese tech companies to surge ahead in areas like 5G, e-commerce, and fintech, making them increasingly competitive on the world stage.
As a result, Chinese tech companies are becoming household names, with brands like Huawei, Alibaba, and Tencent leading the charge. These companies are not only driving innovation but also creating new opportunities for collaboration, trade, and growth.
No jokes, I really wish African leaders can imitate the Chinese government 😮💨
The Chinese tech industry in 2025 is a story of rapid progress, boundless creativity, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. It's a sector that's transforming the way people live, work, and interact with technology, both in China and around the world.
God bless China 🇨🇳

Degree Vs Skills, which is best?
Degree:
Degrees provide foundational knowledge in a specific field, offering a broad understanding of concepts and theories. They are often required for certain careers or industries and can open doors to job opportunities and networking. Degrees provide a structured learning environment, can lead to certifications or licenses, and demonstrate commitment and dedication to a field.
Skills:
Skills, on the other hand, demonstrate practical ability and application. They are highly valued by employers, especially in tech and creative fields. Skills can be acquired through experience, training, or self-study, and show adaptability and willingness to learn. They can be developed through hands-on projects or internships and are directly applicable to specific job requirements.
Combining both degree and skill can lead to increased job prospects and career growth. Pursuing a degree provides foundational knowledge, while developing practical skills enhances job prospects. A blend of theoretical and practical expertise makes a candidate more competitive in the job market.
In today's fast-paced job market, having both degree and skill is beneficial. Degrees provide a foundation, while skills demonstrate practical application. This combination can lead to enhanced career growth and opportunities.
By focusing on both degree and skill development, you can increase your job prospects, stay adaptable, and continuously learn and grow professionally. This approach can lead to a successful and fulfilling career.
Learn a skill, get a degree of you get the opportunity.
