We all have experiences we have had in the past and even now that we will never forget how they happened, some can be funny, some can be exciting while some can be bad but somehow, we tend to remember those moments and wish they could be replayed, especially with the good and funny ones. No one wants to experience the ugly ones, so they only learn from them. Here with me, I would be sharing different scenarios of "I will never forget." Tag along with me.
I will never forget the day I checked my posting letter for my youth service and found out that I was posted to Kebbi state, the North. I cried like never before and one would think it was the end of life for me. I kept thinking different things about death and the thought of my family who I would be far away from. North to me, has always been a journey where one does not return because of the fear of terrorists and kidnappers who attack people on the way.
I have never travelled on such a long trip before but I went and returned as I had to relocate. My family kept worrying till I got to the camp as they kept monitoring me with calls every moment and it got to a point, where I became tired of their calls.
I will never forget the day I was embarrassed by my platoon commandant in front of everyone and it was so embarrassing for me. It was as if the ground should open up and swallow me as I walked back to where I was to sit in the open space, the distance from the parade ground to my destination was a bit far.
It was the final training for our passing out parade on the last day in camp. I was already part of the group of corpers who would be marching and my platoon commandant was even happy to see the small stature girl in the front, but on this day, he was just too peevish and was venting his annoyance and frustration on everybody of which I was unlucky to get a dose of his attitude that day. With anger, he pushed me out of the line instead of correcting me, I almost fell to the ground but quickly picked myself up and staggered to where I was to sit down. All eyes were on me that day as other officers were laughing at me.
I will never forget when I travelled at a late hour even when my instinct kept telling me not to embark on such a journey but had to disobey. There were different scenarios where I had the opportunity to step down from the bus but was adamant as I wanted to get to my destination that day. I could have been kidnapped by the stranger who pretended to be a good samaritan who decided to give me a lift at around 10 pm while still having over 3 hours journey ahead of me. It was an unfortunate day for me but I prayed to God to deliver me from his hands and one way, He did, and I escaped miraculously from him. It is good to obey your instinct, or else you will have to face the consequences later.
I will never forget when at midnight and while I was asleep, I consciously heard the door creak and it opened, I thought it was a ghost that had entered, I couldn't open my eyes for some minutes, took a while to use my phone touch and couldn't get up, I became froze for I was extremely frightened. It was in the morning I realized I didn't lock the door well with the metal bolt 馃槄 (effect of watching too many horror movies 馃榿)
I will never forget when I got a call from a woman who was my Dad's friend a few years ago and I had never set my eyes on her, only heard her voice when she called and for the first time, she asked me what I wanted. Knowing how badly I wanted a laptop, I mentioned that and just like a dream, she delivered it through my Dad when he came back from the U.S. I couldn't stop screaming in awe and amazement because it was like a miracle which God answered through someone. That was a wonder I still cannot forget in my life.
