My diary game // Happy matriculation to my sister and I: 17/02/2023

---

School has been so much heck of stress. This was me heading to the school library a day before yesterday at about 1pm then I got a call from my sister.

Wo! that was the least time I ever wanted to touch my phone let alone take a call. But I took the phone anyways and unfortunately she couldn't hear me. So I decided to chat her up, lo and behold I heard my number had been given to a dispatch driver to receive something.

I waited peacefully and finally, the call came.

Dispatch driver: Hello, please I'm I speaking with Ms kujik?

(Me ignoring the way he just murdered my name)

I replied: "yea, who's this?".
He did reply and then I left him with a location where I'd meet him.

We were supposed to meet somewhere at the faculty of science in uniyo and this was me again thinking of how I'll walk down under the hot sun. But well, I did it.

Locating the dispatch driver was another workload. Unknown to me what the gift was, I waited for him to get it. Then he brought some big box.

---

ahh! I knew that box had something to do with me.

on the box was a transparent slide.( Of ourse, trust me to take a peep)
It had transcriptions. It was a surprise from one of her admirers I thought.

You should guess I guessed wrong too. then I looked closely, I saw my name. If self control was a person, maybe it'd be me because I took Soo much of it to control my smile which had already spread from my left cheek to my right cheek.

My box did draw so much attention to me so I hurried home. It didn't take 5 minutes to open my box and here

I was so happy seeing a big cake with an inscription. "Happy matric anny and kuyik"
It took me years to locate who sent it and you'd believe me it was from my two big sisters.

---

Hold on, there was more surprises( stop salivating at my cake)
That eve, I received many calls and messages. My phone was hot eh.
The morning I got another gift, this time with touching inscriptions, it read

---

You can imagine the joy on my face and this time I needed no mr self control to gag my happiness. I showed dad and mum my gifts and yup! they too were happy my sisters are nothing but more than wonderful. Dad was moved to support a wine to our gifts.

The D-Day was here and few hours away so I ran inside to get prepared and in no time with a little makeup, your lady writer was glittering beauty.
Mum took us to the venue and hurray and it was a Happy matriculation to me (and my sister.)
Even there, I had so much calls and messages that I can't even share all

The event didn't take long, we had a short speech by the vice chancellor of the university. Dr Ndaeyo then the processions began. Being among the first batch, we had finished earlier and even before time so it was picture time, trust me not to disappoint.

It was such a good day, I would never make the mistake not to acknowledge loved ones who came to support me. Among them is an amiable steemian @ubongudofot and many other non steemians like Mr God'swill, Mr christian, Ms Paradise, Mrs omini, Mr Imowo and my lovely family who are always solidly behind me.

---

I didn't even mention my colleagues, they looked sparkling like early morning due, we took pictures together and lots of personal pictures with others.

---

---

I met with long time friends and colleagues from other departments. The pictures just kept counting.
soon enough we were already home, we cut the cake spelling a simple but powerful word-"success."

---

The cake and wine was shared. we feasted, we were overjoyed. I mean, it's my matriculation day, the official day that marks bigger strides. Just before cutting the cake, a zillion memories flashed, From crying all night to get admitted to crying after getting admitted. lol, I smiled. As I looked at the cake, I thought so much about the struggles ahead, I said a silent prayer to Jehovah who I am ever most thankful for to give me the strength and all I need. Then I cut the cake and said "I am finally a tuskite, congrats to us."
