I got up from bed today at 5 AM because I was assigned as a panelist in a Wibinar to do the presentation which took me a week to research my presentation and today was D-day the final day to present .

Since yesterday, 11th February 2021, I have already made arrangements with my internet subscribers and my internet and other logistics were set .

Since I never wanted to have issues I tried to secure headphones from a Colleague and also tooks some precautions to test the apparels before time.

At about 8 AM I was surprised by my director from Buea about her availability in Bamenda .She have me a surprising meeting at Blue pearl Hotel and due to the fact that I had a webinar today which was an International webinar.

I decided to avoid the risk of failing to attain the interview because of tide schedules but arriving on time at 10 AM at the Hotel where my director invited me.

I started having a bad feeling that I will fail in the major task of the day.

I had to wait for about an hour before she came. She arrived and we had a meeting and the meeting was prolonged as upon calling one of our lawyers and consultant for an on going project , there were a lot of field challenges in the project an emergency meeting was scheduled straightaway with Barrister to iron out what is perturberting the success of our project .

I started having pressure and frustration began.

When we left Blue Pearl Hotel for Commercial Avenue where Barrister's office is and because of Taxi Challenges we arrived at 11:30 AM.

At the Barrister's office, I reminded my director that I have to head back as soon as possible because I am a resource person in an International Webinar.

We hastily figured our differences over the project and we needed to aggregate files of the beneficiaries of the ongoing project
.

I became challenged by the rate time was moving so fast.

The meeting delayed me until I left the office 30 mins to the beginning of the webinar which started exactly at 2 PM.

The long prepared awaited meeting started with failure,

It was not easy until my friend a great IT Technician @Mr.Bull alias @fombae helped me to connect with great IT skills thanks to this talent from YEM' Group Office .
I was so happy with him.

As I connected to the webinar I introduced myself to participants from Yemen, Columbia, Am Salvador etc.

The success journey became greeted by a short euphoria as frustration started due to internet pertubation .

It was just 5 minutes into the workshop, my internet went off and crashed.
My talent house @fombae had left.

All hope was not lost as a sympathizer @nkengblaise was there to helped me and I connected again through a third party Wi-Fi box.
I reconnected again and hoping for the better . I was asked to start presenting. and it all ended in teara as the connection crashed back to avail .

All attempts collapsed permanently .

I did not even listen nor did I say anything in the webinar that I was representing Women' s International League for Peace and Freedom.

I felt so sad because I was representing the Country Director who upon traveling to the Central African Republic assigned me to handle the presentation on behalf of the Organization .

I left the webinar at 3PM and took a taxi home very devastated, very disappointed and very very embarrassed upon the money sacrificed as a volunteer , the time and every research made I failed the Organization .

I feel so ashamed of myself and disappointed.

I took a taxi back home and reached home and had some food and water which since morning I had no time for because of the said engagements, then it was 5 PM , I decided to write my #diary game for steam #cameroon community after this premature work day.
