I've once played a game where we share a funny story from our pasts that we would never forget and the most funniest wins, it was just for fun but I learnt more about my friends and also realized I haven't forgotten a lot about myself even though they seemed insignificant when they happened.
So for this prompt, I'll be sharing five very random, funny and maybe sad memories from my past that are unforgettable.
I will never forget a time I was addicted to 2go before facebook. It's funny whenever I think back to those times I spent chatting on 2go to level up, make friends and show off to my offline friend. All these were done with no incentives promised, I just enjoyed doing it. I call it an addiction because I remember following a friend everywhere just to use her phone when mine got bad and I wanted to keep in touch with my online friends.
I will never forget when I had a crush on a fellow classmate. Even I didn't realize I was in that situation until I met him outside school in a setting that had him sitting close to me. I felt all the butterfly feelings I do read or see in movies lol. I remember I never got to tell him how I felt about him but I was happy having a crush on him. His looks, charisma, way of speaking and smiles had me crushing on him for a long time.
I will never forget when I met my mum for the first time after a long while. She had left when I was six and somehow, she showed up at our doorstep when I was ten and I almost didn't recognise her. It was a day of all kinds of feelings, I was happy, sad, surprised and wishful to see her again. I remember we had a whole day of talks, cries and excuses before she left again. We met a lot more after but that day remain one of it's kind in my life.
I will never forget the first time I had to stay alone away from home. All my life until that time, I preferred to be around family and I never slept alone as I had my younger sister always with me to share a room. I didn't like the dark but it was okay if I was with someone. Well, you can imagine my first night alone in a new environment away from home. I remember having different thoughts that didn't help me in anyway because it only got scary for me until the next morning. I got better and now, I'd even prefer to be alone lol.
I will never forget a time I tried to hide my pain and ended up crying so loud. Some time ago, I wouldn't want to inconvenient anyone with my pain or feeling so I try my best to bear and overcome crisis by myself until that day. I was alone in my room feeling pains when a friend came visiting. I thought I had everything in control even trying to laugh with her like nothing was wrong but it got to a point, I couldn't hold back and I fell down crying so loud that it drew the attention of many others, at last, I found myself in a hospital.
These are of course, only a few from my many past memories that I'll never forget and they may seem insignificant when they happened but are memorable till this day. Do share yours by participating in the Hive naija prompt here.
