The Last lecture

Will the last lecture ever come? That is the question that students ask themselves whole through the year. I do not understand how students think, hardly a week in class they are already talking about when the academic year will come to an end.

However, what students do not realise is that the last lecture is not as fun as it may sound. Being the last class and knowing that you are leaving and never to come back brings about mixed emotions. Some students, for those who make friends during the course of study, they feel deserted, some are afraid of what the future holds and some just do not understand why they should live without being told what to do (instructed) by someone. This could be due to lack of being self-responsible… very dangerous but anyways life goes on.

While, it seems there are reasons for wanting to have the last lecture. One of the reasons could be that students don’t like to do assignments or write tests, which means that thinking to them is a challenge. Who wants to be thinking all the time anyway? Well, reasoning makes people plan how they want to spend their lives, so students must get over it and look forward to their futures. The last lecture should save its purpose, therefore, should not be viewed as a scapegoat but should make students look into their futures with positive attitudes.
