THE CIRCLE (EPISODE 4- TRIANGLE)

Monday
Project Lab day.
I leave for the Lab by 9am.

1pm.
I am done at the Lab.
Chinonye Onah is done too so we leave together.

We meet Igwilo Chinedu close to the school's gate.  He's having a chat with Kingsley Ugwu.
We exchange greetings briefly although we are occasionally interrupted by passers-by saying hello to Igwilo especially.
Igwilo is a popular figure.
A shuttle is loading so we hurry up and join in.

I stop at Ojukwu hall to see Blessing. Thankfully she is in.
I've missed Bae.

Blessing is heating up some food. I came at the right time.

"Bae will you eat yam porridge?" Blessing asks.

I no get option na

Abi?

We eat.
I sleep off .

4pm.

In my dreams, someone is tapping me by the shoulders. I open my eyes. Its Blessing.

Lets go to class. Nelo said Madam is around.
"Lets go to class", she says again.Are you with your MCB Note?
"Yes", I reply.
I'm sleepy.

6:30pm
Lecture is over.
I tell Blessing to accompany me to Sweet Mummy.
Bae wants to go there too.

I buy items for okro soup. I have stwew items.
Blessing wants to make Ofe-Akwu

My phone rings
Its my darling sis.
"How are you, baby?"

I switch to my last born voice.
"Ayamfain". You haff nor call your baby since I say and strech my lips forward to allow the baby attitude sink in.

"Oya sorry" How was the wedding you told me about?

It was fine o. I met Crush.

Sis laughs.. "You did not meet Ofeshe?

Noo o. Me Adon like Ofeshe.

Ok na. I say make I know how you dey. Oya take care o?

Oo.. Bye bye

Tuesday
Its 8am
Haematology class is holding, Basil (Swash) posts on whatsapp.

I dial Ugochi.
Uh Uh, haemat is holding.

I know. Just saw it on whatsapp. Are you going?

Yes.

I'll come to your room by 8:35. Be ready oo.

Oooo

She hangs up.

8:30am
My phone rings. Its Ugochi.
Jor Jor, lets go o. Eluke is already in class.

Haba. When?

She just entered. Be coming out. We'll meet at Manuwa bus stop. Do fast o.

I'm trying to draw my eyebrows.
Oh God!

Ugochi is waiting.
She gives me 3 hot flashes; the kind I gave Chidi the other day.

8:40am
I meet her the bus stop. We leave.

This girl, you can waste time.

Its not my fault na. Don't worry. We'll beat swash when we get to class.

After Class
I'm not in a cheerful mood.
Geme is taking selfies with her iPhone.
I join her. The pictures are lovely.
iPhones have wonderful cameras.

My mood is brighter.

Tuesday evening is as usual only that I attend Bible study after MCB class.
Joint Campus Christian Body (JCCB#) executives come to pass a message.
A programme is coming up. Chibuike Ihejirika is part of them. He makes the announcement.

I enjoy Bible study classes a lot.
It pays to listen to God's word.

I'm exhausted.

To be continued...

GLOBACOM SHUTS UNEC DOWN WITH TIMAYA, MI AND RUNTOWN, DJNEPTUNE AND DJLAMBO

Last night is a night that will not be forgotten in  hurry at the  University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus as Globacom ended its week long mouth watering Campus Data Bundle campaign tagged 'Glo campus storm' with an enveloping event which brought down A list artistes such as Timaya, MI and Runtown to the white house of the prestigious institution. Yours truly was there and brings you reports! The event was slated to start by 4pm although it later started much later that night due to problems with the generator which was to be used to power the auditorium and other equipments for the event. Many students left for emergency night class in the few opened classes like Abuja auditorium and Coscharis building. Luck however was on the side of the patient students who were already murmuring that the show was a scam, when PHCN restored power supply around 11pm. Immediately the power was restored, all the students including those who left for till day break studying returned and the a...

CRUSH ISSUES

I was standing by a corner of the road awaiting any oncoming tricycle (keke) to halt. "Mummy will kill me today. How did I forget to look at my wristwatch?", I wondered aloud as I searched my head for any sugar coated excuse to give her for staying out so late. "Hello". Excuse me", a strong and smooth voice behind me said. I ignored the voice. Hello, please excuse me".The voice repeated and seemed to draw closer. I turned around. My eyes couldn't believe who I saw so I quickly looked away. "I'm sorry to bother you but I couldn't help but notice you alot in there". The voice called again. It was Kiss Danel. Yes, Kiss Daniel. The celebrity. The Woju crooner. My all time celebrity crush.He was the one seeking my attention. Wonders shall never end.  Kiss was the guest artiste at the event I had just attended at African cultural centre, Kano.Throughout the event, I noticed he kept looking at me or maybe in my direction but I wade...

The Error of 'Don't you Know you are a Girl? '

Part 1 Dear Society, When you want to correct a female going wrong, especially a child,  do not remind her that she is a girl. Do not tell her to stop because she is a girl. Tell her to stop and change because her actions are wrong. When she wears a skirt and sits with her legs wide open,  tell her to close them because it is wrong to sit with your undies exposed. When she talks arrogantly,  correct her because it is wrong to speak that way. Don't tell her to be polite because girls should be. Sensible humans are polite. Politeness is not gender specific. When she dresses indecently,  correct the wrongness of the dressing. Don't make it about her gender. Decency doesn't apply to one gender. When she is unable to cook at 18, remind her that it is only reasonable for an adult to be capable of making food for his/her survival. No gender needs the skill more. When she rides her car in a rough manner,  remind her that wrong driving has sent many to their...
