THE JOURNEY OF LIFE


 *THE ADMISSION* 

 *Episode 23* 

Tolani could not stay long with a guy, as the thought of having sex with him would reflect. It occurred whenever she talked with Ayomide but thank God, it was a long distance relationship.

He was in Lagos and she was in Magboro. Every day, she prayed to God and she stopped visiting those sites often, as she believed recovery is a gradual process and she was on her way there.

Her Waec result came out and it was good as she had E8 in English language and her Jamb score was 180. So, she had to combine her GCE and Waec result for her admission processing. Iremide and others were also processing their admission, as they choose different institution.

Tolani graduation was awesome as she enjoyed herself and also, the thought of missing her class mate, kept coming to her mind with various memories.
She stayed at home for a year because of her result, as she had to write GCE and Jamb again. Iremide was the first person to gain admission among them. 

Tolani felt badly as Ire was leaving but the words from her mother revived her, which says "Everyone has a different time for their race. Do not look after another man's time".

She still had Busola and Rebecca with her, her thoughts. Few days later, Rebecca told Tolani that her dad wanted her to stay with him at Lagos finally, but she would be coming to Magboro once in a while. This time, Tolani couldn't stop the tears from flowing down her eyes because it seems, the vital part of her life was about to leave. Rebecca reminded her that she had busola there with her but she tried to stop relying on people, since they could leave her very soon but she could not.

A month after, Busola and her family left Magboro to Abeokuta, due to some incident that happened. A week later, Tolani logged into the portal to check her admission status. She shouted, as she was given an admission to study Anatomy, even though she applied for medicine with the huge amount of money her parent paid but, it didn't work out as been planned.

Mr and Mrs Alabi, told her to tell anybody that asked about her course that, she was given Medicine instead of Anatomy. Including her friends, and relatives.

Why? She asked.

"Do as you are been told because, you will be changing your course at 200l" Mr Alabi said, which was what Mr Badla, the man who processed her admission guaranteed them.

"Okay sir" she replied. 

Tolani informed David who was studying in South Africa, about what mummy and daddy said, which he partially agreed with them. She called her friends to inform them about her admission and lied about her course. They were all happy but she felt like a betrayal, and thought about how many people she was going to tell lies.

"Hmmm, what a lie. I hope they can still change her course" Kunle said.

The resumption day, was getting close as Tolani and her mum went to get some things in the market and also, paid the necessary fees in the school. Finally, it was time to resume to school, as Ibukun and miracle was crying. They would miss her so much, her advice, her welfare, etc. Mr and Mrs Alabi prayed for her and they began their journey.

Getting to the school, they had to pay for the Hostel fees because they wanted her to have an experience of a Hostel life. She was given the room C2; it was a room containing 4 people with 2 bunks. It was a spacious room with a wardrobes and a reading table. She greeted everyone in the room, as she moved to her bunk to arrange her things. Her bunk mate was yet to come, as Mr and Mrs Alabi stayed for an hour before leaving.

Tolani missed them, as that was the first time of staying away from them but also, when she think about everything happening in the house:- the quarrels, shouting, nagging, etc. She was happy, she left home and she pitied her sisters because they would be the ones to face the situation at home and they were not strong enough, to hold pains and words.

All she wanted was a peaceful place. Few hours later, her bunkmate Tara by name came in. A beautiful lady, with nice body shape. 

"Alhaja to pretty" she thought in her mind.

Stay with me as we Journey together.

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
