I had resigned from my place of work, I was at home for almost two months and lied to my dad that I’m
on annual leave. In his words “annual leave fun osu meji” !! I told him “en, I didn’t take last year’s own”
Jokes on me!!
Around 2019, I tried unilag masters entry with a friend but I didn’t make the cut off mark for the course. I questioned myself, I told God “but you always do it for me on my first attempt” i was sad but we what ?? We mueveeeeee.
Back to my work resignation which happened in June 2021, I eventually told my dad one evening about it and he laughed at me and said “sheybi mo so fun e koma shise forty thousand” lol ,
He proceeded to ask me what I’ve saved from my three years of working, I said I saved my life ! Cos me no get shishi, I no get kobo!
My dad: Abi wa lo shey masters e ni uk ?
Me: e so pe ????????????????
And then it started, I was scared and it feels unreal. You might be thinking, “studying in the uk is not an achievement”, well, it is! It is to me! It’s a big achievement. I couldn’t believe it until I stepped my foot on the land. Went from not having a passport to being a masters student in the university of bradford.
My first day in the uk, mo sun babanla ekun, I cried so much not because of anything but the touch of snow on my body. Struggled to change my naira to pounds( biggest mistake I made) I couldn’t pay for my rent on the spot, it took a lot of calls to see someone to help me change my pounds. Let me slid in one lie “I know nothing about currency exchange rate, I was more concerned about the money I want to get from my dad” ahh owo yen por ooo not knowing what it’ll amount to,
Mo jego big time purr 🌚
