7 Random Things I Want to know Before I Finish Campus

Just so we are clear, I said before I finish Campus not before I graduate. Those are two very different things, and isn't graduation just a ceremony,where there are very long speeches and they call out people's names? In public?
So seven things I want to know before I get out of my university;
1. I want to know how people who do crazy things think. How do they just do things?
And after that, I want to do something crazy myself. Probably compose a four line song and sing it in four different languages and make a hit song like the legendary Ken Wa Maria. No I think I should write one with two lines and sing in 6 languages. No too absurd. Probably 3 lines in 7 languages works well. What do they say about odd numbers? Or probably sit on some toilet and come up with a brilliant idea better than that of ATM machines, what better invention would rewrite the banking history? So don't just be sitting there, do something.
2. How do corporates make such a lot of money in just a short while?
I always remember when Safaricom, under Bob Collymore made a net profit of 11bn to 6 months ending September last year. How? Considering they run adverts every other time (which costs a lot of money) they pay employees. OK, I know that adverts brings in more customers, but wouldn't they still get clients without these many promotion campaigns? I mean it's Safaricom. Bob, a tour maybe? Advertising is where I want to major in, I'll know somehow. But speaking to the guys at Safaricom would be great. I have 1001 questions.
3. How does a media house work out, it's daily routine?
I only know about selling newspapers, announcing news.
I want to know the behind the scenes, and that why I'm in campus, to know this stuff, but unfortunately our School does not have a studio or anything. I only heard about two cameras and microphones. The whole process of requesting for one is full of bottlenecks so... I'll leave it at that. I need a media tour, Jeff, Larry, Julie, anyone? Caroline? Then probably I'll be taught in class, will it end here? I need a tour.
4. I want to know From people who work, do you get bored of doing the same thing every day of the week?
It is a life fact that we go to school so that we work for the rest of our lives, till we die. So we just do the same thing every day? I think creatives cannot. Let's say like designers, they design something new every day, but keyword is design. Everyday. So designing everyday. I personally will want to do something new, something adventurous, something that will bring out my alter ego. Maybe media, PR, advertising because I will meet creatives, different diverse people everyday. Aristotle said insanity is doing the same thing over and over and except different results.Be diverse,try something new. 
5. I also want to know how this beer flavoured coffee by Starbucks tastes like. Yes it tastes like beer I know. I meant tasting it using my taste buds.
Starbucks is a coffee chain in Washington DC. So i will probably have to travel to the  States to taste this glorious probably sweet coffee. Mine are valid. What is the point if tasting (like) beer and not get drunk? Exactly the reason why I need to taste it. Our very own Java should give us some actually. That is thinking outside the box, doing something no one else has done before, for Starbucks.

6. Do touts have to shout for people to enter their vehicles here in Nairobi?
People will not board their vehicles to their homes in the evening or to work in the morning?  Not that they have much of a choice anyway, so most probably they will still board the Matatus, without the shouting. And did I mention to you that they will probably hurl insults at you when you decide to go  to a rival Matatu operator? But then Nairobians are used to this kind of thing, it is part of life, it is our lifestyle. Then you board the Matatu and the conductor refuses to return your change. Use Bebapay cards, or any other cashless payment system.

7. So you have read all the above, what are you going to do about it?
Stand up do something and be counted. Do something with your life. Do something crazy.  Come out of that comfort zone. Lastly, you can join my share brigade,share.

Ambassador Amina Mohammed

This is an iron lady. I sat down today and listened to her press briefing about the AU meetings and I can tell you, she is a boss.
Amina has a way of speaking, when she talks, you listen. Her voice, drunk with authority, her lips curving and shaping the words that hit your ears like thunder with excitement. You can't help but wait for the more words to come.
With very high diplomatic skills, Amina Mohammed is just the woman for the job, you see ambassador Amina has a way of answering questions that even journalists themselves aren't able to trap her.
Listening to her answering questions today I would only laugh quietly to myself. She has got the right words for the moment. I would only pity the helpless journalists.
Ambassador Amina does not answer your question, she makes you think she has. But the funny thing is that even the journalists themselves don't realise this, and even if they do they don't say.
So what is the magic and the charm behind this diplomat?
Born and Brought up in Kakamega county, Amalemba constituency. She attended her primary education just around the county. She later went to Butere girls for high school education, after which she attended highlands school. She won a scholarship to study international law in Ukraine and that my good people, is how the road started, say starting from the bottom.
But What makes her so outstanding? Many things. This lady, who is fluent in more than five languages including Russian and French is a lot of every thing. She has working experience of more than 25 years in the international arena, 26 years precisely, and I can tell you in every place she has been, she has left marks.
It's a no wonder therefore that this 52 year old has many honours and awards to her name including The National Award of Chief of Burning Spear(CBS).
She has worked in various ministries as a permanent secretary before becoming the cabinet secretary in the Uhuru administration in the early quarter of this year.
In the ministry of justice, Amina did a lot for the country, she supervised drafting, negotiation national referendum and promulgation of the new constitution in 2008 to 2010.
In the ministry of foreign affairs Ambassador Amina was instrumental in restructuring, reforming and rationalising the ministry and also other missions abroad.
At the UNEP, Ambassador Amina spearhead the UNEP medium term strategy and programmes.
At the world trade organisation (WTO) Amina did among other things drafting and interpretation of international trade treaties and not forgetting representing Kenya's interests at the WTO.
So what is unique about this mother of two,who balances between being a mother, a wife and a diplomat?
It is no surprise that even my kind, the fourth estate, find it a nightmare to pin her down.
She is really an inspiration to many including myself.
