It's privilege to be part of another contest of hivelearners #hl-w26e3.
Being real at all times make someone to be unique, most times it's not easy to be real due to change in environment and places we may find ourselves. As for me I have determined long time ago, to be real no matter what happens but some people do compromise on being real.
As for me I will never drink alcoholic drinks not to talk of being drunk, neither will I take hard drugs nor smoke, despite the fact that I have a lot of friends that love alcoholic drinks, but I have promised myself to be real always and this has made me to be unique among my friends.
Even from secondary school days, whenever we went out for birthday party of any of our classmates and they started sharing alcoholic drinks among themselves, my friends will tell whosoever that is sharing the drinks to give me soft drinks, because they know I will never drink the alcoholic drinks.
And this makes them to nicknamed me as 'Soft Guy', at some point I want to compromise but I remember what my father used to say, that if you want to be an example, then you must be different, then I maintained my stand by being real at all times.
When I gained admission into higher institution in the year 2012, I was introduced to a group called Steward waiters, and our services is to work with caterers and event planners just to make their event colourful. And we worked with notable caterers in my community for several years, and we attended many events where we're opportuned to drink all sorts of alcoholic drinks both local and international drinks, but still I never tasted nor drink any of the alcoholic drinks.
It's not that I am condemning alcoholic drinks, but I just want to be real by not drinking alcoholic drinks, and this makes me unique among my colleagues in school.
This is my entry for #hl-w26e3.
