Let me start by saying I don't go out much, and if I do I only go to specific places where I'm sure I would have fun. And guess what, my definition of fun is quite different from a lot of people's. That's why people usually find me boring to hang out with hehe. Also if I'm going on a date, I always ask my partner to pick the venue so we can be sure they are going to be having fun wherever they pick. My life is so boring that when I was in school I lived in between home, school, and church because I was mostly working from home and when I got a job in school, I was living in a square. As of last week, I was living in a pretty straight line of home and church, and from today I go back to my triangle of a life hehe.

My definition of fun is going to a public park, with either a big bugger, shawarma, or pizza (depending on how financially buoyant I am at that point) and a smoothie. I would sit on the grass if it's nice and clean, or a bench depending on what makes me comfortable. Then I will enjoy my snacks as I reflect on a lot of things. Depending on who I'm with on a date or hangout will determine if we will talk and play games but whichever way, my reflection mood would be turned on at first. But assuming someone who doesn't know the city of Port Harcourt comes around, a friend or relative, then I would have to plan with the season and the attitude of the person.
I love to adapt a lot to people's personalities especially knowing they wouldn't be around for long, I wouldn't want to make them uncomfortable and thus would always put their comfort first. If the person happens to be loud and noisy, we will go to the park because, at this time of the year, it will be noisy with a lot of people. If the person happens to be cool-headed and boring like me the first place we will go would be an entry. Dominos pizza to be specific. If the person is a lover of football like me, we will definitely be going to the Real Madrid Football Academy here in Port Harcourt to watch the young lads play football. And if the person loves football more than me and plays very well, we will definitely be going to the community field around where people who love to play football come.

If the person plays basketball like me, we will be visiting the basketball court in Shell Gate or the University of Port Harcourt. If the person is very spiritual, I would be happy to spend time with them in church 馃槀. And if the person is a lady who just wants to hang out, we will go to the Spa (ShopRite kind of mall in Port Harcourt), get a few things, and then move to ShopRite to watch a movie. If the person is a foodie, I know a great place where we can get catfish pepper soup 馃構. And after all these, we will take time out to enjoy the community carnivals and local wrestling tournaments which I'm still looking forward to.
