Surprise Trip

What do I have for you today? Seriously weak on bed and couldn't stand up. Two days ago, my hostel mates forced me to squat 30 times following the song in the MP. I wanted to prove to them that it wasn't hard to do since I used to exercise before I left it because I couldn't keep up with it. I did it thirty times and they clapped for me. Yesterday, I was feeling pain on my thighs and didn't remember it was the exercise I did. Someone had to remind me of it which I confirmed it was the reason for the pain. I couldn't move my legs but still tried to.


This morning, I was still in bed at 8:45am as the thighs weakened me. I checked my phone after a while and it was 9:35am and I haven't prepared my article for today. I should have posted at 7am but right now, I just need to come up with something from my head. It would surely be a rant of my day. Perhaps for the remaining days in this year, it would be ranting especially my trip to my hometown, my family gathering, gifts and so on.


Guess what? There are gifts waiting for my Dad, Siblings and the family from I and my sisters but will be revealed to you when they have received it. Perhaps I would also get the best Christmas gift from my sister. My mind is telling me that. My younger sister called few minutes ago asking when I would be coming home but I like making my things as a surprise same with her too.

Surprise is something unexpected. Do you know it's good to surprise someone especially when you have a clue of what they'd like but there are surprises that you make that you will also be surprised at the outcome?.


I watched a movie titled "A Naija Christmas" recommended to me by Olasquare. The guy wanted to surprise his girlfriend by proposing to her in public. It was a live thing which was ongoing on Instagram. The lady was surprised and turned the proposal down, disgracing the guy in front of everyone and the world because it became a trending one on Instagram. Can you see the turned down proposal became a surprise to the one who initiated it at first?.


Though I love surprise trip but it's most times dangerous and risky especially when you didn't inform anyone of your coming. Something might happen on the way and who do you call when you are struggling for your life? This is why someone in your family should know of your whereabouts anytime. This is what I do in this kind of thing, I only tell my siblings I would be travelling home and it becomes a thing between us.


Another thing about surprising someone is they won't know you are coming so as to prepare something delicious for you. This happened to I and my elder sister when I went to visit her in Lagos. We planned visiting our maternal grandma without telling her. We wanted to surprise her and we also want to taste her fried stew. We were both craving for Ijebu Rice and Fried Stew and we didn't tell her we were coming so as to get the preparation done on time.

We got there on a Sunday and as we wanted, they were surprised but we couldn't eat the food we craved for. They said the shops didn't open and we ought to have told them so they can get it ready before then. We were really hurt but we knew it was our fault. That was how we missed the meal 😔


Surprise may be good but there are some times it doesn't work like that. How do you feel when a lady turned you down in public just like the guy in the movie? This is why I don't support public proposal because you might be rejected at that spot making you feel disgraced and embarrassed. You don't know what is going on in the lady's mind perhaps not ready for marriage but you brought the question "will you marry me?" 🙈 And she said "No". Whose fault then?

So, I told my sister to be careful with surprises and should let few people know of her trip which I will also do the same. In conclusion, my trip would be a surprise one making my siblings aware of it and that is it.

Do you also like surprises?

If a lady should reject a guys public proposal it would really break the guy heart and he will be depressed. I think she should served him breakfast in private.

I love surprises too but sometimes it can make you stunned and unprepared so it is better not give any kind of big surprises to anyone. I think one should propose her/his love in private instead of Infront of a huge crowd. That person whom we are going to propose in public may feel disgusted and ashamed so if we love someone then it is really better to tell only that person.

You are very right. We need to be cautious of any surprises given to someone. I prefer proposing in private than public. Thank you! 😊😊

I would have turned down the proposal even though I love the guy and love being married to him.. I find public proposals so cringe worthy and vomiting material ewww.. it is like applying pressure on the girl to accept just because the public is watching and putting her on spot not to reject that guy and look like a horrible person.. I hate that...

You have a valid point. I don't want all eyes to be on us too and it would feel like a pressure to me because I don't want to disappoint him, I end up doing what I never planned for.

Exactly my point.. things like kisses, proposals, hugs are personal to those two who are in the relationship.. the world doesn't have to see that

I saw that movie some minutes ago on nairaland and Netflix said they are dedicating it to the late Rachel Oniga, is the movie interesting?

About that public proposal of a thing, I have told myself that will never try it. It's going to be a private proposal for me when the time comes, I don't want the entire public to join me and cry in case things go wrong 😆

How sad that this happens to you in front of everyone. Imagine being a trending topic with a video of you being rejected, it is to die for. You have to be very sure that he is going to say yes, do not do it if you do not have 100% certainty that he will say yes.

Surprise visits are a double-edged sword. Sometimes they end up looking at you badly even ahaha

Exactly my point. Be sure the lady will accept you and not to give you an embarrassment then. Thank you

I was about getting the movie this midnight, it was dedicated to the late Rachael Oniga.

I always feel you should know if your partner will turn down your proposal, there's a point in the relationship where it will be so glaring she cannot reject you.

I also, do not like public proposal too 🙄

Yes, that woman is gone and it pained me though but we don't have a choice. Yea, you are very right. The guy should get to the stage that he should know the lady is ready for it and wouldn't reject him.

That is why I don't want a proposal on public for me . I kept on telling my boyfriend that before. So when my husband proposed to me, it's only two of us. It was private.

Many surprise have led to disaster, that why whenever we want to plan a surprise we need to think carefully, so that the joyful moment we want to create doesn't turn into a disaster.

Sometimes we may project to do things this way but due to the ever unpredictable nature, the ways we projected those plans might change into something very different from our initial projections such surprises might not really go down well with the ways we planned them to be

Surprises are quite good but most times our plans doesn't work out,we shouldn't always make surprises everytime but we should try not to make surprises everytime.

That is too embarrassing if you will be turned down by your gf.. I watched many videos about that and I felt pity for the guys. But I guess if I experienced the same. I don't know what to answer too and I might turn down the proposal. Because it is not something that should be decided promptly. It's a serious matter..

Well surprise is quite good to some extent but at the same time it's disadvantage might not be encouraging. Although I love to surprise whom I care about on certain occasion but I do it in rare case. For the thighs you need to keep doing what brings the pain, then you would not feel any pain again when you get use to it.

Yea, we need to be cautious the way we surprise others so we don't get to lose in the end.

maybe this is a surprise friend. but it is also true sometimes we really hope to always know the whereabouts of family members. because every trip is always accompanied by prayers by other family members. i think you are right.
