‘One day I went out with my friends and we came across a robbery episode. One of them suddenly pointed a gun at us, and asked us not budge from our spot. Soon one of my friends started laughing at the robbers like a mad person. Small time the robbers started laughing as well. E be like film..that’s how we got saved ooo.’
Titi (F)
‘I am currently in love with someone who would serve me breakfast no doubt if I make a move. I dey here dey cry, and wallow in sorrow because of the pain of unrequited love and I can tell that I look like one of those girls in Mexican movies.’
Tla (F)
‘In 2019, I got a job that looked like a movie. It was my Dream job and I was so excited because this was something that I have always wanted. Long story, I made the announcement to one of my friends about the contract. Man went behind me and sabotaged the entire deal. I was so hurt, I wanted revenge so bad like those blood thirsty revenge thrills on Showmax.’

‘One day, one of my girls called me out and slapped me in front of the entire girls, calling me a hoe for flirting with her boyfriend.
Mind you, I had no idea what she was talking about, or who her boyfriend truly was. It was so embarrassing that I couldn’t show up to school that week with a straight face.’
Ayo (F)
‘I was in a relationship with this girl that I really liked at the time. A few days to her birthday I ran around to get her heaven and Earth, plus I even rented out a restaurant. Few days to my birthday, we started a stupid fight that did not make the slightest sense at all. She sent me a text to tell me on that day that we were over. Why did she not wait to repay my good deeds before thinking of a breakup? I felt like I was acting a script, because this girl almost wan run me street.’

‘Funny enough, it has to be in a match I played in 2016. When I scored the opening goal in 20 seconds😂😍
I must say, scoring from a long range made me look like Ronaldo that day😂 Well after we picked teammates, my team started the match with a kick-off. I was playing in the midfield position. When the ball was given to me, I wanted to continue with the flow. But I noticed from the far end of the opponents post that their keeper was out of position and the defense were totally distracted by what I didn’t understand😂. So I took my shot from afar. They tried to stop it but to no avail..that memorable moments felt like I was on tv!!🤷♂️’
Marvy (M)
‘When I was quite young, I fell and broke my arm. That period was one of the worst times of my life. Now that I look back, the only succor I find is that; what was actually one of the worst periods of my life, has now become one of the best memories because I had to spend my mom’s last days on Earth with her. We worked together to get me healed and I would always love and cherish that memory just like a movie.’
Meliodas (F)
‘Ok walk with me. There was a point in my life where I had cherophobia, yes, it’s real. I was so scared to be happy, to enjoy life or even live in any way, like actually live. I just…existed. In my defense, a lot of bad things have happened in my few years of life. Loss of father, mother, heartbreaks from douchebags, it’s been a lot.
Nevertheless, I’m not totally there yet o, but I’m in a much better place. I’m learning that bad things do happen, but it should not overwhelm the good. In summary, I’m growing, and I’m honestly proud of the woman I am now and the one I’m becoming. 😌🤭☺’

‘Yesss! How I struggle with blank canvas when designing is so so frustrating. But then the end result is not short of a masterpiece. 💪’

Life definitely has it’s “wow” moments, it’s ‘awww’ moments, and it’s “wtf” moments. Nevertheless, it’s like a book, and we all must write our pages, or let the tidal waves of life write it for us.
Happy Weekend!!!
