I can't remember if I have ever had a very sweet or interesting new year celebration , maybe because i have never beeen really attentive to my surrounding, it has always been a normal new year for me. and if i were to pick a particular new year celebration that i really enjoyed, it will bring me much sadness because the year didn't end up well for me, despite starting it on a good term, never the less i will tell how that new year celebration went for me.
When i was 12 years old a friend of my mum actually a close relative of ours came to our house one day and told my mum and sisters that she will be traveling to another state to settle down , which i felt very sad about and i told my mum I was going to go with her, at first my mum declined, but that day I cried my eyes out till the next morning , my mum had to plead with my dad to let me go with my aunt and the next morning, ny aunt also came and begged my dad to let me go with her, which she assured my parents I was in safe hands since it was the festive period ,i was happy and sad to be away from home for the first time in my life. we departed for port-Harcourt the next morning, (fast forward to the new years celebration)
I had stayed with my aunts family for about two weeks before the year day, i was told we were going to the pool, which I haven't had the opportunity to go to before then, i was excited about it, and my aunt bought me a lot of dresses for the celebration period also included a swim trunk, though I didn't know how to swim but I knew I could learn it from there which I actually did馃槄 .
We prepared ourselves that morning and there was enough food and drinks for the day, my aunt sis was a caterer so we had alot of things to munch on, well it was a great day, because it wass my first time being out of the house (parent's place) ,that day I made new friends, met a lot of people, played a lot of games with a lot of people at the pool, then when it was noon, my aunt and her sister's relative decided to go somewhere else to have fun cause the pool was already crowded at this time, so we made our way for one of the best recreational center in the city, since there were lots of kids,we all took turns playing with whatever games the adults paid for us, then we went to the photoshoot section and took a couple of photos, the adults then bought us icecream, cause we had gone to the pool earlier with some meal, but after a while, the little kids demanded for some snack from the eatry that was in the mall we went too, they had no option but to buy some for everyone of us, maybe they spilted the bill amongs themsellve i cant remember, but all i know is we had fun馃槏馃槄.
The little kids were already sleepy by the time it was evening, then we were told we had to leave, which made us the older kids a bit sad, but we couldn't stay at the mall forever so we had to leave and we all went home. That night i slept with a smile on my face and I was very happy I got to experience another kinda life outside my own home.
