Okay, so this week's prompt is trying to take me down memory lane. Ah! to make us pick out from my vast collection of moments, beautiful and ugly. Some that left an indelible mark in my heart. Some that that made me laugh, cry etc
So I think I should go straight to the first one.
I'll never forget going From Hospital to Exam hall
I'll never forget when I was so sick that I had to spend three good months in the hospital. Everyone thought I was going to die. I was literally fighting for my life. I Was transfused four good times but the blood will quickly drain out to only God knows where. I was a shadow of myself. Lost so much weight and fell into depression. I nearly didn't make it for my WAEC examination. I recalled being discharged a week before the examination and I forced myself to the exam hall. Did I do well? Yes I did. I believe five As is proof that I did well.
I'll never forget my **First Award **
On this day I couldn't just explore how I felt. It was a feeling out of this world. Knowing that your hard work and kindness actually paid. Knowing that the people you work with have actually been seeing the value you give. Work for over eight months while going to school and at the end of the year. During the end of the year party, you're amongst those singled out and handed an award with a cash gift. Sad thing is, I had to leave the next year.
I'll never forget my First Kiss
Hmm. Mehn that day, that day was the day I kept smiling even while sleeping. I'm kidding. But on a serious note, throughout that week, whenever I remember that feeling of getting to lock lips with that one person you always had butterflies in your belly for, I just smile heartily. God bless that young woman's soul. It was good while it lasted. And till today, I don't hold any grudge against you. Though it didn't work out for us, I'll always cherish that memory within me.
I'll never forget the day I Signed out from school
I remember waking up that morning and just laying there in bed, staring at the ceiling and reminiscing on all I had to pass through to get to that stage. To be honest, it felt like a movie. The sleepless nights of reading, running to school because you're almost late for lectures, trying to raise your school fees and all that. Although now all I'm dealing with is trying to raise cash for my clearance. I still believe I'll get there. I don't know how but I'm hopeful that help will come.
I'll never forget the day I got the news that my dad has Cancer.
I really don't want to write much on this one. It brings emotions I struggled hard to do away with. I've been strong, and I'll continue to be.
