It's so ironic when I was a child I wanted to be an adult as soon as possible but now I'm an adult I want to be a child once again not to worry about my responsibilities all the things I should have achieved or where I'm supposed to be so many things comes with being an adult even if I may still be treated as a child at home but the responsibilities of adulthood is there knocking at the door.
Speaking about my childhood memories I had so much fun when I was a child then I love playing football so normally joined my brother and his friends each time they play ball not minding the fact that I was the only female in their midst. Different games were available at that time both that of male and female but in my own case ha! I was present at both side if it's time to play video games with guys and their if it's time to play with dolls and make your dummy hair and stuff like that I was there, I didn't miss out in any of the fun actually.
I recall that there was a dog in my area just like three streets from my street, the dog is always locked inside the compound not always in a cage but allowed to roam freely in the compound. Then we normally noticed that the dog could jump across the fence because they hardly open the gate for the dog to move out freely, so we may just be outside playing, the next thing you notice is everyone running and telling you to run inside only for you to find out that there is a dog running towards your Direction. It's really funny actually because thinking about it now I'm now wondering why would the dog run from that compound, left the first Street, left all the other street, but always come to our street and chase everyone inside?, but that answer, I have not gotten.
Apart from hide and seek, game box, ski-ski-skilolo😂 if you know what I mean, wow!, I recall sand cake, that's one of the dangerous and interesting game at that time because is like you build a some cake and insert a broom at the middle. The sand cake should be able to hold the boom firmly, the game is this way, before we start the game which would have agreed on a particular wall that should be the rescue point of the game. So everyone gathers around the cake and start cutting it little by little, if paraventure you cut the cake and the Broom Falls then you have to quickly with the speed of light run to touch that wall but if you are caught before you get to that wall you will get a beating of your life but the fun there is, even though you are been hit by others, you still have to persist to get to that wall, not minding the people coming after you.
Thinking about my childhood memory brought back different flood of memories. I recall, I had a crush back then. He was residing in the down floor of the next building while mine is the first floor, so I could see his kitchen veranda from my veranda. Every morning, I spend most of my time waiting for him to come to the kitchen veranda. We don't usually talk much when we meet even when I go visiting, its just like eye communication. It broke my heart when they moved out of that premises to another state, but its just a crush.
Apart from playing under the rain during the raining season, Christmas season was my best part of my childhood especially Christmas Eve and New Year Eve WOW!!, that time was crazy. We do have firecrackers and bangers (a type of firework) street fight, my street and the opposite street. We chase each other with firecrackers until we all out of it. In my street, there is an elderly man that always comes out shouting that we shouldn't throw firecrackers close to his gate but each time he gives us that warning, that's when we concentrate on throwing the firecrackers inside his compound. When we notice that he is about coming out, everyone disappears into hiding, when he goes inside, we continue until we are exhausted.
That's a bit of my childhood memories, it was all fun growing up. Thanks for reading and thanks to
