My Thursday, 15th March, 2018.

If you're eventually reading this, this is the third time am writing this... It's currently 1:41am.it just disappears mysteriously. So if you're here,please take time to read through.
I am writing for the masdacs.io...

It couldn't post so I changed to esteem

My Thursday started 12:00am.i was on my bed chatting with Sugar-rush(yeah! That's what I call her). And also steeming and upvoting,commenting and searching for contests.

Before I knew what up, it was already 2:23am....
Sugar-rush said...

You're my bad habit... Keeping me up this late.

Though we continued the chat till we decided to call it a night by 3:00.

Then I went to bed.

Normally, devotion is always an early as 5:00am. But this time around, I don't even hear a sound. I didn't even know when my parents left for work.

I woke up 8:25am reached for my phone, did some loverboy's duty to his woman, dashed to steemit, commented on @jaynie and @ejemai post, then some upvotes and a few more comments before dashing for gold to the bathroom, before which I already put rice on the stove to boil. I was back, dressing up and about to eat when Sugar-rush told me she was fasting.... So I told her I was gonna join her too. So I just packed my laptop and bags and headed for my photography class.
I steeped out on top of the world with a positive energy....

I mean I was feeling myself.

At the class, my other photographer colleague was having serious running stomach, was vomiting and all. It was discovered that it was food poisoning. He got some drugs and later had to rest through the day.

So I was at the computer, practising my editing skills while Me and my boss were gisting about food. He taught me how to cook one holistic beans(ama write on it soon) and ogbono soup.

As my boss was telling me and teaching me these dishes, I was salivating and getting hungrier. Thanks to @jaynie to who made me hungrier.

Then Two guys came for photoshoot, they were ushered into the studio, after their shots, they came to me, to select the picture and for editing. I engaged them talking, we laughed, and laughed n were just happy. I got to know more about them than they did me. Their universities, secondary school, names, childhood fun. We talked about games, movies, anime and how we missed the old cartoon series(danger mouse, avatar, naruto.... Mehn... We sure we're not happy about the movie boxes called cartoon these days).

I thought I was a gamer not till Felix gave me his game lists and Maxwell showed me his movie collection.... Well I beat them both at anime records🙌🙌🙌).

Then the best thing happened..... Sir @ejemai replied a comment I made on his post.. He commented

So I'll go for Gold, if I fail, I will as well be content I gave it a shot.
Yes, go out there and call the shots, the world needs creative director like yourself.
Steem on!

I was really excited.

The heat today was really unbearable, I practically loosed my shirt to the middle button.
Reminds me of what my chemistry teacher back in secondary school always said...

God is frying the earth 🌍 😪

It was that hot. Since I couldn't bear much, I had to go home.

Don't forget am still fasting.

On getting home, I met my uncle waiting for me with the marvelous HABIB yoghurt

Not only was I craving for the yoghurt, if you've ever tasted it before, you'll know how awesome it is.

But I had to reject the offer.

While trying to calm down and loose some heat, momma returned from work.

Naija momma, even if there's no work, she'll find you one.

So she asked me to go get her chicken...i took a stroll with my uncle. On getting there, I was amazed at how the guyS cut the chicken and removed the feather in 10 minutes. I was amazed. Got them to take some pictures. But it's not uploading at the moment... Don't know why. I made them laugh and gave them a handshake ask I left. My little way of saying... You love your job, well done and stick to doing it better.

I walked to the market, bought two water melons with the last change in me. Then started walking towards home.

Then suddenly, I just don't know how I was feeling again.... The weights of the melons felt like I was reliving the moments I had lifting weights just last week. I felt so weak and like I was going to fall. I knew I was walking but my mind was home already.... Lol..

As I kept dragging towards home, I got an inspiration, am impressed thought in my mind. I was tired and exhausted from now eating for 18 hours. What of kids that go for days without food and that sometimes of starvation, malnutrition and hunger?

Or the men and women who are taken as slaves, treated liketheir lives don't matter. Left without a voice.

Men made to believe that their lives on longer matter. What about them?

You'll never know the worth of your freedom except you've been bound before.

My spirit was troubled and moved with pity. I kept walking like I was sick. I was weak and just swaying.

Then I finally got home, wanted S shower badly.... Went to the bathroom, but I found myself sitting for the next 24 minutes steeming, getting inspired and writing more.
After mom had shouted my name severally I got into the shower and phew!i felt relief.

After which I remembered I had about 5g data I needed to send to 4 people as I sell mobile data at cheaper rates to subscribers. Presently, my Mtn is valid for 3months.....marketing strategy.... Lol....

Then I went to the kitchen to clear the dishes after attending to my customers.

While doing the dishes, I was praying and the song impressed in my spirit was consuming fire by Todd Delaney

I sand that song and prayed. And while I was doing that, I noticed mom was boiling yam. I was angry....
Boiled yam means just one thing.... Pounded yam.

⚠ If you've not eaten pounded yam, you're missing. And if you've not pounded before, I really don't know what to say to you except that I feel cheated.... Lol...

So my countenance fell and I wasn't happy but I was also happy in a way.

I was happy because I enjoyed pounded yam just that I don't like pounding.

When mom noticed I wasn't happy, she then started this "mommy-son" talk.....

Mia lock up o! Lol....

So I hurried my finished the plates. Since I know there was no escape from pounding, so I could eat and break my fast.

I went to the freezer, took two bottles of chilled water and gulped it. Mehn..... M thirst was quenched.

Thirst! When you're thirsty for something, you can't have peace till you get it. And be very careful, when you're hungry after God or productivity, when you get it, don't think that's all you need, you need more.

When I took the two bottles, I felt OK. I said to myself, any more bottle, it would be my first step of I was drowning.

Then I rushed to serve my rice and beans and stew. I was super excited about eating after a long time. As I got to the table, the unbelievable happened...

it overturned....i mean all on the floor... I couldn't cry.... I was like village people whatsapp 😢😢😢😥

Then I told Sugar-rush and she said "who did you offend"....lol...

So Mum called me to pound. I went with my angry face, started pounding like I yam was what poured my food away. Then I was just not happy. Then I got a scene flashed in my mind, a lady who is a slave to answer Ibo Chief. She is loved. But a slave is still a slave. She can't choose when she's tired or willing to work. She just has to go whenever they want to go.

Appreciate your freedom.

Then after pounding, I ran to the pot to do a second serving... You won't believe what happened next.

Mom poured frozen stew into the pot. 😥😢😥

So I had to wait for about 15 more minuted. Then I remembered there was a job @atlas_project gave in the Atlas discord channel Link which I was supposed to do on twitter. So I started reading from. The site

Then mom called me that the syew was ready... Mehn.... I finally got to eat after 8pm.

Then I retired to my room to do my Atlas work. I really enjoyed it and took my time.

Till mummy brought a long list I had to type for her..... Mehn..... I snapped from relax to troubled, then to depressed. I took the list, typed till I was done.

Then I later,i started craving for water melon but was too lazy to go get it.

Tonight ended on a nicer Note, I released Sugar-rush to go and sleep by 2am.

I started writing this, it got erased like 2 times. This is the third time now. And presently, it's 3:30am.

The last time, I was done by 2:19.i clicked a button mistakenly and everything was off. So I had to start again.

Am happy I was able to share this story. I really had a fulfilled and fulfilled THURSDAY. you can share your own story how you spent your Thursday too.

Thank you for your time and good morning. Hope you learnt a few things from my writing.
