Throwback to Sometime in May 2016. Within the gorgeousness in that picture was a soul so buried in fear. I will tell you why I had so much fear in me.
I wrote my second MBBS professional exams in May 2016 and the day I took this picture was supposed to be the day we would get to see our result.
It was almost a tradition we inherited from our senior colleagues to go for a picnic on the day the result would come out. The essence of this picnic is to alleviate the stress and panic on that day. Another reason for the picnic is to give people the opportunity to spend quality time with their friends, make memories, take pictures and prepare their hearts for the best or worst news from the result. That might even be the last day many of them would see again. Not because they were going to die the next day but because the fates of many will be decided on that day. So many people will be advised to withdraw from medical school. Some might not be able to face the reality that they will be leaving medical school and might remain depressed all their lives. Some would even leave the country to seek greener pastures.
That particular day is usually a memorable day. The result is highly anticipated by many people, medical students, non medical students, teaching and non teaching staff. It is usually a day of so much joys and wails, jubilations and regrets, gratitude and ingratitude.
I am glad that I was one of those who could rejoice when the result came out. I was and is still grateful to God and all that were supportive during my preparations and exams proper. May, 2016 will always remain fresh in my memory.

Everyday of my life, I yearn to make people happy. I want to be the reason someone in another continent smiles. I want to be the reason someone in another country, village, city is able to pay their tuition or that of their child/children.
I hope soon enough the worth of my upvote on people's post will be enough for them to buy a meal. I hope that someday, the worth of my upvote will be enough to fund projects.
