I never expected it'd turn out this way.

“Every morning you have two choices: continue to sleep with your dreams or wake up and chase them.”

Arnold Schwarzenegger

I never expected it'd turn out the way it did for me yesterday but in the end, I met myself already went as far into dreamland. I woke up at 4 am to quickly write this article as I needed to be in church as early as 7 am. Anything past the time does mean I am late as a worker in the church. I take care of the children's department and I am so excited every Sunday to meet these amazing children. Right now, I am acquainted more with these kids and they now enjoy me, especially the little stubborn boy among them.

I had to make him the class captain so he could stop making noise and disturbing others while I talk to them about the word of God. At least, I remind him of being the class captain and he should help me write the names of noisemaker. This is a way I could get him to pay attention and stop distracting me.

Yesterday was the last Saturday of the month and according to how it is done in Nigeria, perhaps in other countries which I don't know of, we held environmental sanitation every last Saturday of each month. In this way, everyone would do a thorough cleanup in the environment where all neighbours/tenants or house owners would come outside to clear the surroundings and make everywhere sparkling clean again.

It's been long I have done a thorough cleanup in my room and there is dirt in every corner of my room which I then shifted to yesterday to clean everything up. I shouldn't have wasted that much time as I used five hours cleaning and decluttering everything in the room. The standing fan took the whole of my time because I had to unscrew it to be able to clean the dust that has been stored inside.

I cleaned the corners and when I was sure it was cleaned enough, I screwed it back, but I am yet to see if it's working as there was no light yesterday. I remembered the first time I did the same thing, it affected the rotation and I couldn't repair it. I searched for fan repairers, but I didn't see any. I had to leave it that way and was managing my property. At least it is blowing air over my body.

I did everything in my room. Who would help me before? Lol...I owned my small space, so I should clean it up if I don't want to keep staying in the dirt. I thought of making some changes too as I transferred some stuff to another position and I love how it is now, compared to how it was before. At the end of the task, I felt relieved doing what I did. I took my bath immediately because the sweat had glued on me and caused a bad smell on my body.

By that time, I was already famished and I was shaking. Hunger isn't good and I do pity those who are struggling to eat even once a day. I managed to go get some ingredients for my stew and rice which I prepared afterwards.

By 2:30 pm, I was done and ate my food. I took a nap thereafter and when I woke up, I was feeling pain in my back which didn't make me bend for too long.

By 5 pm, I went to workers meeting in Church which only lasted for an hour and I returned home to eat my remaining food. I took a shower and was weak to do anything online. But I moved on to watch the movie I was watching last night, titled “S*xify”. This is about a virgin who wanted to try out an app to optimize orgasms for women. I am still on it though since it's in episodes. The movie is interesting and you can only watch it if you are over 18 years 😅😅😅 If you are below that age, don't move near it unless you want to try something funny 🙃😝

I only watched two more episodes before I zoomed off into the Dreamland and here I am ready for what the new week is about to unfold. Are you ready too? I wish us the best in this wonderful week. Let's keep grinding and trying our best. May God help us all. Amen.

Thanks for your time.
