The diary game 1/08/2020. A hectic and fun saturday

My outfit today

It was a rush hour in the morning as I struggled not to miss the car conveying me to a wedding ceremony. I left the house as early as 7:00 AM running like Hussein Bolt to catch up, and indeed, I got to the spot I was supposed to stay before the car arrived. Because of the way I rushed, I forgot to take my Nose mask. We were almost 5 minutes away when I remembered that I wasn't with my mask. I wasn't the only one that forgot to pick something. My friend also forgot to use perfume. It was so funny that she hugged me to tap from mine. We laughed at our stupidity while in the Car and talked at length concerning the things we forgot to pick because of our hastiness. The wedding was set to start by 8:30 AM, but due to the delay, it started around after 9.

My outfit

Before we head to the venue, we branched at the market to get a gift for the couples. When we got to the Market around 8:10 AM, we saw people gathering and lamenting. When we moved closer to observe what was happening, it was a fire outbreak that burnt all the goods in ten shops in the same lane.

It wasn't a good experience. I was embittered in my heart. According to what I heard from the market people, one of the victims just stock his shop with goods, and what he heard in the morning was that his properties were lost to a sudden inferno. I didn't see him but I know he would go mad for a few minutes before getting back to his senses.

The shops

When we got to the wedding venue, we were told to come closer to the gate only if we have our Nose mask. Oh! I forgot mine at home. I smiled and moved closer and closer. What gave me the confidence was that I bought another one before leaving the market. I sat at one corner observing what was going on in the Church. It was a church wedding. The pastor preached about the importance of staying together as husband and wife.

The couples

At a point when the couples were about to be joined together, the pastor said if there is anybody around that has something against the union, such a person should identify his/herself or keep quiet till Jesus come. Everywhere was silent at that moment, but no one came out. When the pastor grabbed the microphone and reacted to the silence, everywhere was again lit with laughter. It was a great wedding and I pray that may Almighty God/ Allah uphold them through their journey because every marriage comes with challenges.

I snapped this on the way

After the wedding, I left the church to meet someone at FESTAC. The main purpose of going to the wedding was to see this person that promised to get a job for me in the house of assembly. He is very influential. When I got there, he took my CV and told me not to worry. Of course, I'm not worried, but I only believe that anything that would happen to humans is already destined by God.

My day was a little hectic because I didn't eat anything before leaving the house.

I ate the food I was given at the wedding when I got to a friend's place at Mushin on my way back home. If I had known that she wouldn't allow me to eat the food alone, as I was very famished, I would have gone home straight and enjoy my meal.

I got home late in the night and all I could do was take my bath, get something to eat, and go to bed. My day was fun, but at the same time stressful. Thank you for reading my first diary post. Tomorrow is another day. Stay kinki.
