"Dima! Dima! Where are you? Your phone is ringing " Vicky shouted. I hurriedly pick up the call as it was about to end. It was from Bright. Bright was an acquittance I met recently at the University when we wrote post-utme examination. He was a cheerful fellow who knew much about the school system, as he as a sibling who has put him through the school system. His brother max, took us round the university after the exam it was a fun day.
On this fateful day, it was a sunny day . The sun shining brightly clear in the blue sky, soft music that soothes the soul coming out from the music player in the room."Hello Bright, I murmured, " Hi Dima, I just saw your name on the list of the newly admitted students, please hurry and come to the school's admission office, I'm there waiting",he said in excitement."Wow, thank you Lord" I screamed.
Vicky rushed to give me hug as I gave glory to God Almighty for making it possible for me to get my dream course and the university after two failed attempts.
I quickly dressed up in a yellow floral gown... a black flat ballet shoes with a powdered face, wearing a big smile. My sister offered to drive me to the school which was a 45mins ride away from town.
Getting to the admission office, I met a lot of newly admitted students who we will later become friends. Bright was almost done with his process before I joined the queue. When it got to my turn, I submitted the necessary documents to prove I have been admitted and my original certificates, went to the bank and made my payments... It was a fun exhausting experience but the joy of being an undergraduate was all that mattered.
I knew that was the beginning of a journey that will sharpen my life into being the best version of myself... To help me explore more on my God given talents which are meant for the world to see. When I look back, I believe its one of my happy days.
