Watching movies, as my mum would say, is food for our eyes. It keeps us entertained and educates us about different life experiences, cultural ideas and stories.

It also helps the viewers to connect more deeply even with our emotions (I mean I have lost count of how many times I shed a tear, gotten angry about some characters in a movie)

Watching movies has to be one of my favorite hobbies, especially with a good snack to keep the tummy filled. Growing up as a child I always stayed glued to the TV watching movies and skipped helping mummy in the kitchen.

Mummy complained, yelled about it. I even received a few strokes at times, but this didn't deter my love for movies.

One of the days, mummy quietly joined us in the parlor unknown to us and had a fair share of the enjoyment that comes with watching the TV.

After a while, the power was interrupted and as Nigerians, we all shouted "Nepa" down cast. Well, we sat down for a while reminiscing about the movie we had just watched and the many possibilities of its end.

​

Then Mummy spoke up and with shock on our faces we asked when she joined us. She replied, and I quoted "Now let's all go and cook in the kitchen". I deemed it fit to join in watching movies since no one offered a helping hand.

I also remember watching a series of movies until it was dawn. It was a Philippines movie titled "Mara and Clara". I remember telling myself I would stop after each episode. Curiosity got the best of me. I pretended to be asleep when mummy came to wake me up. I slept in between classes and was asked to stand on my desk with my hands suspended in the air as a punishment. Well, I almost fell off my desk and I received the scorn of my life.
