Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest Week 40: My Worst Highschool Experience.

This is the second day of May 2024. I have planned alot of things for this day and I pray achieve all my goal for today. I was about to create a diary game contest when I came across this wonderful contest and I decided to participate in this wonderful contest first. We all had bad memories of our high school days and things weren't really easy for us but somehow we managed to survive.

The name of my high school, senior high school to be precise, is DC International Royal Academy, is a very wonderful school I love so much. This school is located here in Obio/akpor LGA, Portharcourt and is a very big school with reputable owners who are both lecturers in the only state university of Portharcourt.

This school is very big and it has only two type school of uniform whereby we get two pairs of one type and we were it From Monday - Thursday then the other type is what we where on Fridays. I love my school because the teachers are so brilliant and discipline, the school pattern is also cool and standard. What do you expect from a school owned by lecturers? The school will definitely be a productive and standard school.

Yh it all began in my second term in SSS 2 I was now very broke and I developed low self-esteem for myself because I didn't value myself anymore, I was still a brilliant guy most especially in chemistry but I was dead internally. My parents are both teachers and am sure you are aware that Nigerian teachers doesn't get well-paid. My parents reduced the rate at which they give me money, they will give me today and won't give me tomorrow.

I always save money but as soon as I saw my parent's new pattern I decided to save more and I began to starve myself in school, I will save my entire snacks money which was just NGN100 when my classmate always get NGN300 and above from their parents but I appreciated it anyway. I have always wanted to get enough money so I added suffering to myself.

I began to trek to and fro school, upon I don't eat in school all the time, I will be very hungry in the school and I will still use this hunger and trek back home under the sun and rain. My classmates noticed this and they began to abuse me verbally because they now saw me as a broke guy, I was never anyone's crush because I was so broke.

Everyday I will sit in my room in the night listening to sad songs with my button phone, most of my classmates with android phone then also laughed my phone and when all this is happening in school I will just laugh and sometimes take it serious and warn them to stop but I never cried at their presence, I cry alone in the dark every night. Just 10% of my classmates were supportive to me.

I suffered like this till I finished high school and in my SSS 3 second term I was introduced to steemit and my other classmates didn't join because they want quick money. I told the guy which was our classmate who wrote WAEC when we were in SSS 2 that am ready to join, is better to earn NGN500 every month than nothing.

I joined steemit with pains in my heart, hoping I can he massively rich in steemit and show my classmates that No condition is permanent I nearly committed suicide but Steemit saved my life. I have been patient before I joined steemit sonas I wasn't getting votes I prayed and cooled myself down.

To make the lesson clear to those who doesn't understand the first 2 paragraphs, I learnt to always have faith and patience, I learnt that is necessary to not allow your enemies know you are weak. I smiled at the presence of my classmates but I cried alone in the dark every night.
