My boarding school experience 😂2
<p>Remember the two men who were supposed to help me solve the case of my missing provisions?Mr. Mbede and Mr. Ola.</p><p><br/></p><p>‎Let me tell you what happened next.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Imagine being a new boarding student. Your mother has packed plenty of provisions for you because she knows her daughter is going to need them. Somebody steals everything. Your auntie buys another set for you, and that one gets stolen too.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎You finally gather the courage to report the matter to teachers, hoping that justice will be served.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎And what do you get?</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Two men licking your remaining milk and Milo while supposedly helping you solve the case 😭😭.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎I couldn't believe what I was witnessing.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Sir, I came here to report a crime. Why are you consuming the evidence😂?</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Anyway, I didn't argue with them. I simply told them, "Thank you, sir. Don't worry, I've forgiven her."</p><p>‎</p><p>‎And I walked away.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎But please, don't let my calm response deceive you. I WAS NOT OKAY. 😭</p><p>‎</p><p>‎I went straight to meet my cousin, who was in SS3 at the time, and cried my eyes out.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎I was so angry. Imagine being new to boarding school and having this as your welcome package. My mother's provisions had disappeared, the replacement provisions had disappeared, and the people who were supposed to help me were busy licking what remained.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎At this point, I was beginning to wonder whether boarding school was really the enjoyment I had imagined it to be.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Because what exactly was going on? 😭😂</p><p>‎</p><p>‎I entered Jss2 thinking boarding school would be full of fun, friendship and sweet memories.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Nobody told me I might need to start protecting my provisions like national treasures 😭😂.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎But honestly, as funny as this experience sounds, I actually enjoyed my boarding school years.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎I became smarter. I learned a lot about people, independence, friendship and life itself. I made connections, built friendships, witnessed drama, experienced suffering and created memories that I will probably laugh about for years.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Boarding school gave me experiences I wouldn't trade away.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎But would I go back? NEVER. 😭😭😂</p><p>‎</p><p>‎If they told me tomorrow to go and start Jss2 all over again, please, let somebody else go. I have done my own.</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Did I enjoy boarding school? Absolutely!</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Do I miss the friendships, the gist, the drama and all the madness? Sometimes!</p><p>‎</p><p>‎Would I willingly repeat the experience?</p><p>‎</p><p>‎GOD FORBID. I HAVE SERVED MY TENURE. 😭😂</p>
