My first Valentine's day.

Each time I remember my first Valentine's day, i smile because it was actually a scam. 😂 😂 

Back then in navy school, Valentine's day wasn't like the usual "lovers day", like we all know about. For the junior secondary section, Valentine's day is all about ***"exchange of gifts".*** 

So, every Valentine's day, every students submit his/her Wrapped packaged gift to the Class Teacher. The teacher labels the gifts with particular numbers and also write down those numbers in a little piece of folded paper. There after, ***a lot is cast*** With those pieces of paper, for students to pick. Whatever number you pick, the gift item labelled with the number is yours.

It was Valentine's day, the teacher brought the wrapped packaged gifts out to the front class and we picked the little pieces of paper, whatever number you see, u locate d gift labelled with that number and it's yours. There was this particular gift everyone wished for because it was the biggest. Luckily for me, i was the one that picked the gift. My friends applauded me and were all eager to see what was inside. I was unnecessarily uncomfortable because the gift was to light but decided to wave every negative thoughts away. 

I and my friends hurried to the Hostel, to see what was packaged for me, to my greatest surprise I opened it, only to see a pack of eclairs sweet and a singing Valentine card.

It was my biggest scam ever, my Nickname became ***"eclairs sweet".*** till I finished navy school.
